  • Me and my wife… Got really bored. The gameplay loop is supppperr trivial, and even though they add in stuff every now and again, eh…

    I dunno, it’s okay - but I just don’t get the hype. I wanted to pitch in because if someone is considering buying it I’d really recommend checking a Let’s Play of it before trying it.

    It felt like a game specifically designed for a gamer to introduce gaming to their never-gamed-before partner. If you’re both experienced gamers like we are, I wonder whether you’d give up on it too.












  • Your explanation is surface level correct, in that it is in essence society’s justification, but ultimately they’re run like prisons because it’s initially cheaper to treat all mental health patients the same and because there might be one individual that is a danger to themselves (and even less likely, others) then we get the ‘prison-style’.

    The trouble of course comes in that in the long term this model likely costs far far more, because it’s incredibly damaging as human brains don’t fit in boxes.
