Are men capable of enjoying games like Animal Crossing ?

[Simulacrum]

Personally, I'm not sure. I think that their brains are too wired to enjoy violent video games such as call of duty and other first person shooters instead. The same thing is likely with more creatively focused games

What do you think ?

I grew up playing the original Animal Crossing, as well as the Harvest Moon series. And I am a (biological) male.

There’s your answer.

i play slow paced games. I used to play COD before it became a controller shooter. And i dont get why we wouldnt be able to enjoy animal crossing? is there an OT post that claims that girls can only enjoy barbie?

Why? It's primarily a "game," not a feminine hygiene product. Why wouldn't a male who enjoys gaming not enjoy a game?

[Xero_Daxter]

Yes. I even have stardew valley.

now time for someone to make a post and ask if man can enjoy boku no pico

[Swarmfly]

Probably not, that game looks really boring.

There are cases where a person has a loss of capacity for, and conception of, positive emotions. They're offered up as a sacrifice on an inner alter in early childhood, immolated by an external conditioning process. Without positive, the perception of negative is greatly altered (eliminated really, though it remains within the awareness in other forms). In this case behavior is decoupled from emotion, it is the death of desire, and things like whether you enjoy or not are absent. Not suppressed or ignored, simply not there. The reasoning and metrics are done in a different way.

So this complicates the natural and artificial distinction.

I didn't like animal crossing once I realized all the relationships were shallow and empty. And all it was, was house decorating.

You never got closer and married the npcs, and most responses were like "What the heck did you mean by this, but heres a gift of x"

I grew up with the original harvest moon games, where you could marry have kids, improve the town, get pets/live stock, cook, etc.

So animal crossing felt so empty and surface level.

Heck even if you did bond with an npc in animal crossing, they could just suddenly leave town and you'd never see them again.


I haven't played the switch animal crossing but I played animal crossing starting with the first one, and every new animal crossing just felt like the same identical game

No idea what it is? Though if it's got animals in it, I can do some manly hunter gathering!
