    I grew up on a farm and my god, it was a boring existence. I don’t understand why so many people make games about farming, the most boring topic you could make a game about.

    Meanwhile there are barely any games about the existential nightmare of retail work.

    Cause in the farming games we they make money and find cute girls and boys to woo and have an impact on the in-game society to make it better.

    There's an entire cottage industry of games about running stores, they're just mostly B games and streamer bait.

    Recettear was an interesting game back when... Don't think I ever beat it, I always got bored after a bit. The way it handled game overs was funny.

    That's been my problem with games these days too

    At some point the game loop loses my interest, something comes up, and I forget about the game. Happened recently with Sunless Skies, despite its excellent content.

    My issue could be generic exhaustion from work, or brain problems.

    What if you had a very popular game, and you decided to add a merchant to it.

    But not just any merchant.

    A merchant of skulls.

    A skull merchant, if you will.

    And she's really pissed off that nobody liked her dad's edgelord indie manga.

    What if.

    I didn't like how much hack and slash dungeon diving it had. You made a game about running a shop, let me play that part! Not this boring monster-fighting stuff.
