>>47369451I like to imagine that as soon as I start a game an alternate version of myself isekais into the MC's life, and my inputs manifest in some meta godly way into my own self-insert's own decisions. I press up, my self-insert moves forward of his own accord inside the game (as real as this one to him) world, and it's like I didn't even control him.
There's some translation and interpretation, so I don't just bike up and down the same path like a retard when hatching eggs or move forward against walls because I'm bored. Game abstractions and mechanics also change. Intent matters more than pure action, that and a healthy dose of imagination.
Anyway, my isekai'd version wouldn't give a SHIT about Hilbert's mom so he'd fuck off and never visit. Fuck that bitch I'd go to Undella and go on dates with Skyla and try to get a mentorship with Cynthia
