@EminentLine I wouldn't say Nakamura would have been a badass, per se. He confessed the game affected him, in fact, but since he's an adult, he could keep playing and even enjoyed the game. Furthermore, he readily agreed to go watch a horror movie when invited. I'd say that's just being an adult, not a badass.
i read this and go, curse you, real life! why can't my life be like this? i'm doomed to be a loner 32 year old in the future... maybe it's because i spend so much of my time here...huh.
