what would you say is addictive re: tsc? the writing? the typing sound? i usually associate addictiveness with a specific loop in gameplay that other long form games in the list have (like the battle systems in smt/ff12 or the arcadey nature of hotline miami) but i can't see how tsc is more addicting than a good book (maybe HIT&BLOW lol)

@aglhrm yeah I’d probably go with the book analogy I really was tempted to not put it here but I replayed it so many times cause I just enjoyed getting all the information out of it
