I don't know why these types of people (the ones that write stories like kcd and GTA and all these curmudgeon post modernist realist literary critics and writers) tend to hate on "teenagers" and anything fantastical or hopeful. I mean, I get it. You write a different story. Stop acting like a pick me guy lmao.

Also weird attitude to have when you're expected to adapt the lord of the rings.
