That's also why they love achievements so much, because it makes them feel like they have accomplished something great for beating the first level. They are like a little child playing with their toys and making up their own rules, so that they can always be the hero and win. And just like a child, they get angry when you point out that they only win, because they set up the rules in a way to make themselves winners no matter what happens. The entitlement to finish video games didn't exist back in the day. Nowadays it's omnipresent. |
Speak for yourself. I'll be damned if one of the biggest points of my VG "career" wasn't beating Super Ghouls and Goblins on the professional difficulty back in the SNES days, without any of the crappy Save States modern emulators have. I consider it a bigger achievement than every I ever had on this generation and the last two combined.
