    It was never about fun. It’s about experiencing the game.

    When I read a book, the goal is to have whatever experience the book is going to give me, and leave my own life behind for a while.

    Getting lost in a AAA fantasy world with super-high-fidelity graphics is an amazing experience.

      Absolutely not, of course it is about having fun.
      Are you going to just experience something that makes you feel miserable? Not an unfun moment for catharsis later, but an entire make-you-feel-awful experience?
      Getting lost in a fantasy world is about having fun.
