User blog comment:Leoking12/Video game Creepypasta, why repeat the same idea?/@comment-24918243-20140818041003

I disagree. Sure, most of the gaming creepypastas about games ARE cliche. Why? because they all revolve around some haunted copy of a game.

But there is so much more to games. So many angles to exprore.

I haven't seen ONE about an MMORPG.

Or about a MOBA?

A multiplayer FPS?

Or how about those games where they send you emails, and texts...i forget the name of the genre.

Or how about mobile games? Nope, not a one.

Basicaly it boils down to this:

"Oh wow, I got this really cool, old game from somewhere.

Because every gamer writes a blog, I'm going to write one, after all the whole world is interested im ME playing a hacked game.

I boot it up. Oh crap! Something is wierd, the graphics are off. Wait, this is really sick, twisted, scary, but I must play on.

This is really scary, but I'm a schmuck and can't stay away.

Wait! The game is haunted, oh sh*t! I'm dead.

Gamers freid/roomie/little sister anounces to the world the gamer is dead."

Did I miss something? It's not writing about video games that makes it cliche, it's being lazy and refusing to think out of the box that does it.
