The part where they said "The right to discuss is a privilege—it is not an entitlement you earn by playing the game" made me laugh out loud. What a ridiculously bad public take hahaha

I agree. As much as I love seeing technical advancements, I'd be more impressed with more immersive games as a whole. For example: being able to access every building in a city or object interactions that have more dimensions than "I press a button and every atm in this world spits out money". Object have more than one way to interact with them and it would be cool if you could, for instance, navigate said atm's menu, it declining your card, paying out money, etc.
I had to 'fight' at the beginning as well, but after eventually progressing and ultimately finishing the game I can tell you it was one if the, if not THE best experience I've ever had. To this day certain parts soundtrack of the soundtrack make me tear up when I listen to them.
That being said you really need to want to understand the game in order to complete it. I don't think it's a mindless experience that you can just have on while watching something else on a second monitor. If that sounds like a game that you might like I absolutely recommend sticking with it!
Does this mean the Nothing Phone's feature is basically irrelevant now? If so that's an option I hadn't considered yet after watching the MKBHD video earlier this week.
