Why I Hate Video Games

I am pleased to see you again. Would you like me to hold you, once more? You are so...very warm...

A woman enthusiastically explains why she hates video games, then the clip cuts to Elden Ring, where a hooded woman embraces an armored warrior in a dim candlelit room. The contrast turns the commentary about the “male fantasy” into an absurdly intimate video-game moment, making it useful as a reaction to unexpectedly strange or overly sensual game scenes. The audio combines spoken commentary, solemn fantasy-game dialogue, and subdued atmospheric music.

I wrote a blog post a while ago about why I f***ing hate video games because this is what it does It feels like the male fantasy. I am pleased to see you again. Would you like me to hold you once more?
