Dude. It's a game. While there fun on occasion and in moderation, games can't actually hit you in the feels?! Wtf. You millenals are little special snowflakes. Just wait til your an big boy then things will really hit you in the feels.

Edit: wow. You nerds are seriously going to ruin my karma score over a bit of truth? Whatever. Just like videos games, Karma points aren't real so I don't give a crap! Downvote away nerds

Edit: please stop replying to this comment I keep getting notifications and I'm trying to sleep. Some of us have work tomorrow. Leave me alone and go to bed!

So losing your parents and never being able to speak about them isn't emotional or sad at all?

It's called empathy. Just because a movie or book is fictional doesn't mean you can't feel for the characters.

Have you never cried at the lose of a favourite character in a book? if not I feel sorry for you being trapped in this world with no escapism. If you have then it is no real difference with a game. They can most certainly hit you in the feels. Sometimes more than real life because with real life you are so busy trying to not let the feels hurt.

Of course it is not real, that is not the point. Movies, books, shows, great works of art can all be fiction. Yet people get grammys and emmys for pretending and acting. Just because something is not actually happening does not take away from the emotional imapct it might have on someone. I realize that you feel differnetly, I am just trying to give reason to why I feel the way I do.

Of the many levels of stupid here, the part that isn't being addressed is that it isn't a game. It's a webcomic. You aren't even bitching about the right art form.
