I came into this thread thinking I was going to read a feel-good story about someone unplugging and living a happy life away from intrusive technology, but instead I got some rich dude who lives in a glorified cottage.

Everything about Superhot that isn't playing Superhot is really dumb. They have this amazing gameplay conceit and it took them this many years to make a game where this mechanic is the central focus, and even then they can't help but mock the player and waste their time.

Yes we get it, video games control us, meaningless progression is bad, we're a slave to our desires, etc. etc. Please shut up and let me play your game now.

In another comment he says he got the job because the farm owner is an acquaintance. So he didn't even get to learn what "real work" is like honestly.

The thing I learned here, and the thing that I wouldn't be okay with, is the idea of the clients getting the masseuse off as well. Handjobs and body rubbing for work is what it is, but I wouldn't be okay with my girlfriend getting pleasured by other guys.

I know your comment is in a joking tone, but I like to share this quote when I can.
