If you want a perfect snapshot of why zoomers are so broken and checked out, just look at Dark Hero Party. This game is basically a black mirror for the entire anime-poisoned male psyche: the “nice guy” protagonist gets nothing but betrayal, humiliation, and despair for his efforts. His so-called friends sell him out, the women he cares about treat him like garbage, and every ending is either bleak, nihilistic, or flat-out tragic.
It’s not even subtle—this is exactly the core of zoomer disillusionment. You spend your life told to “just be a good person” and everything will work out, only to get blindsided by reality. The hero doesn’t win. Loyalty is a joke. Women aren’t magical reward machines, and nobody cares about your pain or effort. Every hopeful fantasy gets spat on. And it’s all wrapped in that familiar JRPG/anime aesthetic—almost like the devs were mocking the very people most likely to play it.
No wonder guys retreat into anime and fantasy. At least there, you can control the outcome or pretend the waifu will always be loyal. Reality is just like Dark Hero Party: endless struggle, betrayal, no happy ending, and you’re left questioning why you even tried. If anything, the game is less a fantasy and more a brutal lesson for anyone still clinging to those outdated, fairy-tale expectations. The world doesn’t owe you a thing, and no amount of “niceness” or wishful thinking is going to change that.
Dark Hero Party isn’t escapism, it’s a wake-up call. Most zoomers just hit snooze and crawl deeper into their digital holes.
