The Inconvenience of Memes: Why I Won't Play Among Goose Game

I recently came across news about a new game called Among Goose Game, and I have to admit that it caught my attention. The idea of a game where players can interact with each other in a virtual world is intriguing, and the price point seems reasonable. However, after thinking about it, I decided not to play it.

The reason is simple - convenience. As someone who has had a bad experience with the Epic store in the past, I'm hesitant to install another game client that would require me to remember yet another account password and navigate through yet another library of games. It's an inconvenience that I'm just not willing to deal with.

Moreover, I believe that having my games spread across multiple platforms is a hassle that I don't need in my life. It's already frustrating enough to keep track of which game is where, without having to worry about switching between different clients and accounts.

In the same vein, I think it's unfortunate that memes are being used as a form of advertising. Memes have become a powerful tool for self-expression and cultural commentary, and seeing them used to sell fast food or other products feels like a commercialization of something that was once authentic and organic.

Take Wendy's Twitter account, for example. They've built a reputation for creating fun and engaging content that references popular culture, from dating simulators to tabletop RPGs. It's great marketing, but at the end of the day, it's still advertising. And I worry that by using manufactured memes as a form of advertising, companies are taking something that was once special and turning it into just another tool in their marketing arsenal.

In conclusion, while Among Goose Game might be an interesting game, I'm not willing to play it because of the inconvenience of installing yet another game client. And while I appreciate the creativity and humor behind memes being used as advertising, I think it's a shame that they're being commercialized and losing their authenticity in the process.
