Can't actually be invested in anything, that would open yourself up to the one thing there is apparently no counter for: criticism. Or, you can't ever just have the stones to admit that while something you like is stupid (and Kingdom Hearts is very stupid but I like it anyway), but you just like it. Everyone is playing too much of the social game and wants to be someone to even nobodies they will never interact with again or in real life. Sad.

@Owl @PraxisOfEvil kingdom hearts is a little dumb, the whole idea of smooshing square and disney together is ridiculous and cheesy and the plotline is probably the most convoluted in all of gaming (right next to metal gear but it's war/espionage shit so it makes more sense).

however, it has what a lot of games don't (especially these days) and that's SOUL. i don't think there's any other series that makes me *feel* the way i do when i play KH or think about it. even the feelings of nostalgia i have for it are somehow advanced. any time i listen to "dearly beloved" i can feel my heartstrings getting stretched out.

my version of this meme though is probably DmC which a shit ton of people hate but i think it's awesome. "oh nooo they make donte edgy punk boiii noooo" yeah idgaf the gameplay fucks and the music is insane.
