The source of our discontents

[Jobaber]

OP your graph doesn't change the fact that enchanters did not exist in 1999

So time goes higher the more familiar we are with our knowledge of the game?

Actually, if reality doesn’t exist until you measure it, then... yes!

No, time is a diagonal. It might not be "that" diagonal, but *given* time, knowledge and familiarity with any system increases with time. Like take child rearing. The first child, Manhattan Experiment. Third child? Putting aside for the moment meth mommas, both knowledge and familiarity increase with time. In raising a human, this is a perpetual marvel, I have heard. Each year is a new year, for the young, and you watch and are there through it and it is enthralling, I have heared. Child rearing = high-immersion factor, low-burnout in non-meth momma populations. Time has no power here.


Games? A game is not a constant marvel. It is not fully human, really. Any game. Thus that time arrow, is usually your enemy, if you are the designer and the player. Unless you be a meth momma. Then you plug along crazy.


So, the time arrow is a problem depending on the system in question. Games = compared to being responsible for a child, from what I have heard the immersion level of games pales.


HOWEVER BABY IS NOT ALWAYS > EQ.


Back in the early days, we all know the truth. The sad truth. Many kids were left crying b/c, back then, time had not expired on the "evercrack" nickname. Immersion, as it is called. That's the eq beyond the event horizon. We really want to create another generation of incels?


Yes. For lack of a mother who played a druid's love, thus came forth, the Incel Generation. Do the math. It adds up. Elliot Rodgers was born in San Diego.

At this point, this topic is best addressed in Hasbinbad's thread on all-male tradwife dating sites.

I came into this thread expecting whining and to say something smarmy.

Pleasantly surprised. Going to have to come back and do a thorough reread.
