help-circle


  • To be honest, I never got that feeling. I always feel catharsis finishing a game. However, with a huge exception on the Metal Gear Solid series, because Hideo Kojima always leaves more questions than answers at the end of the games. But without spoiling anything for those who haven’t played it yet, the exception in itself in the series is MGSV which completed the series full circle at the end.

    The only time I felt empty after consuming a media is after the finale of Breaking Bad. Never have I felt so empty and lost on what to do after. Post-college life does not even beat it.


  • Being a millenial, I grew up with overbearing parents. I distinctly remember in 90s and 00s of pearl clutching moral outrage on video games and cartoons. Fast forward twenty to thirty years later, boomers accuse millenials of snowflakes. Whenever I hear that, I asked them “who raised us?”

    To be fair, boomers experienced the media sensation of serial killers and spiked crime rate in the 70s and 80s and are understandably wary of their own kids going out. Going on a tangent here, this is why the nostalgia on the 80s is ridiculous because people back then complain of crime (hello, how many times big cities like Detroit and New York depicted as dystopian in the 80’s???)
