Game discussion and tips

These kinds of TikToks often include clips from games that help them make their tips more succinct, effective, and clear. When it comes to discussion, TikTok, for the most part, shows you what you want to see, people who more or less believe what you believe. But it has so many videos, so there are some outliers, and unsavory (read: Ben Shapiro) thoughts occasionally poke through. Even if I disagree with them, though, I like getting the small opportunity to see how someone else approaches a game I may have not reconsidered in a long time.

TikTok can help with learning and relating, but it comes to life on the fringes, in the strange shit, like a modern brownie in the cupboard. TikTok is the master of miscellaneous, and its gaming content is no exception. Who would I be if it had never taught me about @bimbozilla, a queer creator that makes Skyrim characters with apocalyptically large breasts, @notaquesart, who makes a convincing Fable character, or this kid, who makes relatively high-production value VR videos? It terrifies me to consider this.
