I don't know, it's about the experience of fighting tough enemies and bosses, going through obstacles and enjoying a good story.

But for fucking retards? "SHIEEET, I SHOULD BE EARNING SUMTHING FOR THIS!!!!!"

There's a lot of ways to reward the player.
If the game is just the same shit over and over, provides no challenge, has no progression of any kind, has a terrible or non-existent story, and doesn't even look that good, what's the point?
You don't have to excel in everything but there has to be SOMETHING.

Anon I literally named those qualities you fucking retard.
Overcoming a challenge is a valid form of reward.
But with slop like Breath of the Wild for example there's no challenge (because everything is imbalanced), the story sucks, the progression is flat, etc.

What game doesn't reward you? Even games like Asteroids, number goes up.

What the fuck are you blabbering about? I'm talking about how some people cannot enjoy a game for it's fun factor but instead relies on rewards.

Most of /v/ posters are ESL thirdies. They either

The actual percentage of /v/ that actually cares about video games is in the low single digits.
