I am unsure if Devil's Third will be on the same level and be remembered as fondly as as Bubsy, Superman 64, and Unlimited Saga.

I mean all those games suffered from poor design but had some level of effort put into them.

Devil's Third is a bad game with no effort at all.

I can see how at some point you can't separate your identity from the parts of it which people want to use to their own ends, because it's everyone around you... or drat near. So then you'd get real distant and isolated.

You know some people are reading that, and all they're thinking is 'Federline'. Countdown till he loses half his remaining poo poo in a divorce settlement? Then again, first world problems.

Yeah the thing about Notch money, even moreso than just having a couple million bucks or w/e, is that you can literally just make up a new purpose. You can start any kind of business you want and keep it afloat forever, go to college anywhere on the planet and get a PhD in anything you want to study, move to and buy a house in any country on Earth, buy a theater or a gallery or a museum and renovate it out of pocket and pay top dollar to fill it with awesome stuff, etc.

"You run out of reasons to keep trying" only makes sense if the only reason you ever did anything to start with was to make money, and if that's the case he had those brain problems before Minecraft existed.

I knew notch for a while and legitimately the only thing he cared about was making minecraft-type games. Dude is not actually very creative :(

I used to do volunteer work at an elderly home and there's a lot of people there with similar issues of loneliness/depression as Notch for obvious reasons. Many would say they feel lonely even though they had daily visitors. Most of them were no longer capable of just going to someone else for social interaction like they used to when they were healthy. A lot of them had a purpose in life when they still had a job and/or had to take care of their kids, but now that that's gone they don't know what to do with all their time. The ones who didn't feel lonely were not necessarily the ones with the most visitors, but the ones who were still active. I still remember a man in his 80s learning how to use the computer for the first time in his life to e-mail some people he knew abroad. He was definitely one of the happiest people I met there. Obviously I'm not talking about people who have Alzheimer's, but you get the point.

What I'm saying is that a lot of people have problems with finding a new purpose in life even when they have all the tools in the world to do so.
