Crazy for the Bros
It has to be escapism, so I can forget about my pathetic, meaningless life and spend a few hours being complimented and being told I'm the best and a hero for doing menial, meaningless, easy tasks, the only kind of tasks I can complete in a somewhat satisfactory manner.

If a 'game' doesn't provide that, it's bad and has lame, old design, made by some idiots who still live in the 1990s.

If a game doesn't come up with interesting ways to use the gimmick it shoves in your face at the beginning, take points off for that. Watch Dogs specifically.

All MMOs should have that.
