'I met my younger sister's friend for the first time, and we got to the topic
of games. I told him that I play on the Switch often. He replied (verbatim),
"You must be one of those Animal Crossing losers."

I replied, "Why yes, I like Animal Crossing. What do you play?"

"League, maybe some Valorant."

I've dabbled in some League of Legends (mobile mostly, desktop is hard with
my ergonomic mouse), and it's the single most stressful experience out there.
Additionally, with the amount of trolls, it's hard to believe people genuinely
have fun with this game anymore.

So why are cozy games so looked down upon? And why should it be respected more
as a game genre?'

I also like cozy games.

Share and enjoy,
