first thing they want to do with them is crush them under the wheels of capitalism and use metagaming tricks to exploit everyone and everything in them. Maybe they didn't want an escapist world at all; they just wanted to rule over the one they're currently in.

Turns out some people just want to believe they can become the boot.

Little wonder that "let gamers design games" slogans were about making characters less distinctive and more generically fanservicey.

Really just feels like AI art of "attractive women" really fills this gap of creating the reactionary construct of the same damn person ad nauseam, that or nerd and chuds have some version of face blindness where they get upset at having to deal with varied faces of women.
