Playing a good video game is like getting lost in another world. You can explore parts unknown without ever leaving the comfort of your gamer chair. I think this is one of the reasons that we love video games so much. It's a chance to leave the world as we know it, with all its drudgery, boringness, and taxes, and enter a realm where everything is a little more exciting. Perhaps we have powers we don't usually have. Perhaps we have supernatural sidekicks that make our journeys a little bit easier.

Perhaps we have a defined purpose and objective in our lives. We know where we're needed and we don't need to waffle about wondering why we were put on this earth. No need to hop from job to job, hobby to hobby waiting for something to stick or mean something or sound like a life's purpose. No, we know that we need to save Princess Peach and we need to do it ASAP.

Video games help us channel our energies into one outlet. They absorb our decision-making, our attention, and our skills and put them all on a certain path. This can be incredibly soothing for the scatterbrained (which is most of us these days). These memes understand that.
