A beautiful heart warming read that moved me to tears, thx for sharing! I sent it to a few family members who struggle to understand the appeal of video games.
I agree(!) both that it was heart warming, a reminder that our human spirits burn bright and can accommodate to just about anything, and also the utility of video games. I have enjoyed ‘game programming’ in several contexts including work on two Nintendo video games but don’t play them myself except when our kids were young and then decades later with our grandchildren when they were young. My brother’s wonderful relationships with his grandsons is built around talking about, strategizing about, and playing a few games they love.
