Stoicism in today's world is seen as an (often) silent protagonist (see below for celebrated artist Derpibooru's depiction of Gordon Freeman from the game Half Life) who takes hardship on the chin without so much as a complaint or bray.



The etymology of stoicism comes from the Greek* school of thought that teaches virtue, the highest good, is based on knowledge-

Knowledge.


- the wise live in harmony with the Divine Reason. that governs nature, and are indifferent to the vicissitudes of fortune and to pleasure and pain.

Pleasure.

Pain.


Gamers who are stoic prefer slow burns like Disco Elysium and Death stranding. This will be directly compared and contrasted to Libertinism gamers who like having fun while playing games like Sonic Frontiers, initially released on 8 November, 2022 and expected very soon to get a remaster.

                                                                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                         In Hellenistic philosophy the term phantasiai (φαντασίαι) is information based on sense experience.

Several people are typing...

Did you even do last weeks homework? You solve it by waiting until the subtitle pops up with the solution, there's no other hints.



no man, I didn't do the homework as I was busy getting sucked off by the girls on the league team when they saw how I carry... wish you would have said something earlier
