What makes a game actually fun? It seems such a subjective thing, but I guess from what you're saying, it seems like you're actually able to break it down into its constituent parts. Yeah, so for example, a lot of people say, axes not fun. Well, I'll give you some news. I was playing axes four hours a day and it wasn't too grind for SLP, right? It was fun because the mechanics of owning assets together with community were a lot of fun,. especially for people who like Hearthstone or Magic the Gathering.
