Dating sims are sad.

[Said with all the dismissal of a teenager who never got into a given thing.]

It's about simulating an environment. Like how a book does by describing something. It can simulate people too, but all the responses they make are actually pre-written. Not real.

They make it so you can control one of those characters and interact with that simulation, but just in the limited ways written in. It's all about the illusion of choice and free action.
