Comment on “Disease”

"A considerable number of human persons are simply not capable of seeing the intrinsic benefits of a game that, like art, reflects life ... because so many humans are incapable of life."

Christ, when you put it like that... I can't but agree.

I wonder, idly, just how many (or few) people out there are even capable of mustering the imagination -- or the reading abilities -- necessary to play the game. Lord knows that it's a truism among website owners that "nobody reads on the Internet." Not true for readers of this blog, of course, but so many people just skim, just scroll, just treat text as yet more "content" filling up the page and don't pay attention -- there are Tiktok videos to be watched, after all. Who cares about reading? Who cares about playing a game which requires reading? What do you mean, this game can run for years?
