So a bit of context, I’ve been having s video from Diesel Patches and a bunch of what I calle.“Reactionary Commentary Channels” talking about diversity once again. But this time, they tried to convey their Bigotry through “commentating” on a Dove commercial where they have different women of different ability and ethnicity be shown in the Unreal Engine to do the usual Rainbow Capitalist commercial.

Unfortunately, Diesel don’t talk about how Rainbow Capitalism sucks but just said that wanting diversity in a game having someone looking like you is selfish and pointless as games are an escapism (Which is Sad). And I’ve been wanting to make maybe one of those Reddit videos of people talking about their experiences.

So this one is basically: When did you see yourself in a game? What was it that made you relate to the character and would you prefer games to show your identity more and how?

      Declining health and coming to terms with moving past my peak in a lot of ways. I found the early moments of Citizen Sleeper, where you’re trying to manage a very finite pool of energy and effort while trying to scrape enough together to manage your disability very relatable.

      Yeah, the expensive “you need this to function” medicine mechanic hit hard. Great game, but I agree, I wouldn’t want every game to be like this!

      I think the everyone else lives ending resonated with me a lot because, in a way, the whole story is about losing a friend you didn’t keep close. It’s like the whole story is about being able to say goodbye to this friend, becauae they were already dead either way.
