As I've said, I understand being frustrated, all of that, but actually getting angry that a video game hasn't been released? It just seems useless and unnecessary to me.
This.
The only actual rational reason I can see from that is the lack of other stuff to worry about. People delegate to games their whole entertainment expectations - the hope that a game can keep them entertained forever - thus, they gamble all their hopes and dreams coins unto that game.
They expect the game to make them happy and when the game launches and is bad -
it's the game's fault. When it launches, and it's mediocre -
it's the game's fault. If it doesn't launch -
it's the game's fault. If it launches, is good, but they still find it only mildly entertaining and not really leaning too much into the happiness aspect -
it's the game's fault. The game is wonderful, near perfection, and it entertains wholeheartedly, yet the existential dread and common everyday unhappiness is still there -
it's the game's fault.
In my personal, professional and theoretical experience, this is reaping of not caring about anything else in life. And I can usually say with a stuffed chest "go read a book." Or "go play something else", or better yet "do something better with your life than waste everyone's time and patience on an internet forum complaining about obvious stuff that you have absolutely no power to influence the outcome of."
At least reading a
good book will actually make you smarter.
