It's similar to nostalgia, it makes you feel warm and comfortable, imagining you are there.

Also, I didn't say that memes can't be art or whatever, I'd just like to see a memeless version because I think the frog and the feels guy (and those other animals) don't really match with the rest of the picture.

How is this game comfy

>> No.4045617

I usually associate comfiness with games where you have a location you persistently return to and claim as your own, a comfy hub. Not a lot of games make me form an emotional connection with a location, but it's great when it happens.

I'm posting the art for the PSP re-release, but the versions for the SNES and PC-98 are just as comfy though.

I always took it to mean the game had a pleasant art style, atmosphere, or setting, or maybe it's not too difficult.

I find Golden Sun really comfy in a lot of locations. I really like Vale (with this music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA5WiJtleQs)) and Imil along with most of the other towns. The art style is really smooth. Plus I like the sounds that text boxes make.

Comfy is used to describe an artistic work in which the general tone of the material exudes a feeling of inner peace and happiness, reminding one of childhood cuddled up on the couch in a warm blanket watching Saturday morning cartoons, preferably with hot cocoa while its lightly snowing outside.

Material can be considered comfy if:

>The material is GOAT for cuddling with a significant other.
>The material persuades the person nearest you that you're very interested in to cuddle up with you.
>The material is well written and produced to a point that it draws you in and doesn't let go.
>The material is poorly written or produced and has a B-movie nature to it, making one laugh or feel at peace by the sheer silliness in the material's creation - this is particularly true if the creators seem to be genuinely trying to make the material good.
