Sometimes people just want entertainment and that's fine. Based on the OP's response to my comment, I wonder if they consider leisure time to be wasted time.
Why keep chucking real resources down the drain for Zachtronics? If you want logic puzzles there are simple paper books full of them.
This is peak entitlement; the future must cope with your leisure preferences. Not voting rights, or clean water; you are owed video games.
You would defend until the end your right to not sacrifice any scrap of figurative identity. How incredibly dismissive of future peoples entire existence.
Launch the nukes, Putin. If we’re just going to iterate like mindless dweebs into collapse of the species why not go out in a blaze of glory; that would truly be metal af
More like a couple hundred thousand years, not millions, but that's a moot point.
Humans went thousands of years without a lot of things. This is not a convincing argument.

False equivalency.
I could easily turn this around and ask why chuck resources on publishing puzzles on paper when I can do them digitally.

Really? Enjoying spending my time on video games is "peak entitlement"?
> Not voting rights, or clean water; you are owed video games.
Textbook whataboutism.

Yes...I'm sure me playing a few rounds of Legion TD 2 or a couple hours of Final Fantasy is going to threaten the existence of the future.

You are either mentally ill, an extreme workaholic, or a troll. Please seek help.
What’s that? I’m not chanting the traditions the way you would? So I’m mentally ill? That’s some traditional values BS.
Peak entitlement; anyone who isn’t enabling your figurative identity is some sort of broken thing. Childish reasoning.
Paper and pencil don’t require nearly the same level of toxic waste and slave labor; so false equivalence.
You can’t say false equivalence and have it be true you have to actually quantify why their damage is the same; again childish logic.
Peak entitlement is that you aren’t giving a damn what video games cost everyone in real terms, you’re hung up on living in your bubble and expect billions of others to coddle your feelings like mommy and daddy did. But if you’re putting it out there you have no obligation to consider others sensibilities before your own; fuck yours too. Who cares about one of seven billion whose parameters are pretty similar to billions of others, since you like logic and stats so much.
Less than 13% of the public have greater than a bachelors. While polls show most Americans think it’s 35-40%. The world is not composed of as many like minds as you think. You’re outnumbered.
“Work” is a term defined in physical sciences; my biology “works” 24/7. I loath “job culture”. Hanging in a hammock by a river last week my imagination conjured up numerous story threads for a space opera. Video games are someone else’s imagination.
