HES A WHAT

Animal Crossing is a very interesting game because it’s like…the antithesis of instant gratification. Want Blathers to bring his butt to your island? Well, you got to wait, travel takes time. Want those flowers to bloom? Water and wait, buddy. Like I’m frustrated but also like…what have I become that I can’t wait a day for something? So, I go about my day doing little things and explore. And I wait. And that’s ok because now, in this little island, I can breathe, you know? 

In juxtaposition, Stardew Valley is like: you have 50 seconds in a day and if you don’t make use of every moment you’re not going to make any money and you won’t be able to buy a barn in order to buy a cow in order to make milk in order to make cheese and oh god it’s 11:30pm I forgot to water the crops so I have to go out there and do it or I won’t make a profit so I do it and right as I get back to my front door it turns to 2am and I pass out and a Joja employee moves me the 2 inches into my house, steals my stuff, and charges me $50,000

i feel like this thing where people are going stir-crazy and want something to do less than a week after being explicitly ordered to stay home under threat of disease and death kind of blows a hole in that “if we give people universal basic income everybody will just be lazy and won’t want to work” talking point
