Have you ever felt as if you were a hero in a video game, treading through life's obstacles, gaining experience, and leveling up as you go along? You're not the only person out there that has felt like that. In some sense, as video games simulate life, so life also mimics games. In any case, it's a wonderful topic that is just waiting to be explored.
Who else can better visualize this than a Clueless Hero and the protagonist(s) of a world that's intertwined with life and love for video games? You'll experience an adventure reading them! Start the game by scrolling down.

this is the truest thing i can think of, especially in apex legends
Here's how the artists of the comic presented their whole concept in an interview with Bored Panda: "Well, my friend and I are both gamers and, at the time, we were trying to get into game development. We started goofing around, talking about how nonsensical game logic really is and that's basically how the concept for the comic came about."
This is true. In Lego Marvel Superheroes, the final boss is the giant world eating cosmic being, Galactus. But when you unlock him as a playable character, he's just a normal sized minifigure. Why is he not giant?! I want to stomp around New York City as Galactus and destroy everything in my sight!
The creators of the Clueless Hero comics shared their key inspirations in the making of the comics. "For the most part, they are all inspired by cliched RPG characters. And the hero, our main character, was originally inspired by Link and the idea of having a silent protagonist."
And in case you've wondered how they're this good at making comics, well, you wont be that surprised when you'll learn that they're both animators by profession.
100% I still play the Nintendo entertainment system sometimes

When you realize you didn't miss the games, just the feeling of playing those games as a kid
Replaying Chrono Trigger for the 50th time Finding an old cartridge of Super Mario Bros
I’ve never experienced a longer minute than waiting for the microwave to heat up my food
That minute between when your child first exits your body and their first cry...
Load More Replies...seriously though you forgot to add the fridge. well the fridge is more like a save point or a main menu but still. we all just some times go to the fridge and just sit there idle for a while and then be like "oh" and go back to minding our own business like nothing ever happened.
Calls on hold to customer service is basically trying to load an online game without wifi
"Wait a minute," you'll say, "if they're animators and they want to get into game development, why are doing all of this?" The answer is you, our dear reader. One of the artists admitted that "it's really fulfilling, I teared up the first time someone sent us fanart."
Love it when the "special" weapon or armor is less powerful than the gear I already own. I'm like, more GP for me!!
I will always keep that stuff because it's cool looking, I don't care if I will run out of inventory space, I want cool stuff!
Load More Replies...Am I the only one who keeps every single unique or special item I get it a game and stash it in my player home for all eternity?
I do if it's possible to. Not every game has the ability to do so and that is annoying. Even more so in games that make you have to pay real money for additional storage (or secondary real money subscriptions for extra storage ¬¬ some games actually do that)
Load More Replies...You, my dear, dear, DEAREST friend, are speaking the LANGUAGE OF GODS. BOTW is life-changing and I love using it to escape to, like, an entirely different realm. I’ve been playing for more than a year now and still haven’t got all the shrines.
Load More Replies...And if you ever want to be as good as them, perhaps you should follow their wisdom, which they gladly shared. "Be consistent. I think many artists get discouraged looking at views and likes but, really, if you like making comics, use that as your motivation, just enjoy it. Views and likes may or may not come but, as long as you are making something you enjoy, it's worth it."
I mean, they're not MONSTERS. What kind of evil bastard would kill you while you're checking your inventory?

We all hate the water sections tins in games unless it's a spongebob game

I looked this up. I'm now hiding in the closet scared to death with the music of Sonic drowning.
Ten minutes later "I beat you for the 123,677 time." Meanwhile, in the corner of the room "it's all about having fun, it's all about having f-fun"
Honestly I usually play on easy. I play games to relax and have fun so extremely difficult games where I keep dying are not for me. Like the Souls series for instance.
Exactly, ditto. If a game is too frustrating, it isn't fun. That's why it's important to have different difficulty levels in your games.
Load More Replies...It's okay to play on easy mode, we are supposed to enjoy playing games and not get angry/frustrated. It's time to relax for many
depends on the game. im glad the person im game sharing with. had us play strangers of paradise on hard. it made it feel more rewarding when we 100% the achievements on it.
Hey at least you're at 99! I get so upset when I do a ton in a game, compete or, only to find out I'm at 42%
Hey if I finished a game at 42% I might just happily take my W, if I finish it all 99 I'm now completed to get that last percent.
Load More Replies...First time with that feeling was right after beating Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
Try going for item completion. It's so rewarding. I've done it with every final fantasy and Castlevania game (ones with inventory)
NEVER!! I WILL HORDE THE UNIVERSE MUAHAHAHA- oh there's the stick from the start of the game I meant to sell
Omgosh yes! But lucky me.. I upgraded my storage with a secret closet. *maniac laughing*
Load More Replies...Or funny thing when your inventory backpack fits only 11 bullets but can fit 17 sniper rifles
Exactly. If someone needs purple herbs for a quest it's right there.

Yes. It's either that or ending up like Jack Sparrow being chased by a hoarde.
Am i seriously the only person that, when being chased by a horde, turns around to fight them

You've purchased the game! You must now pay to actually play the game!
I would be like.. "last thing ill do is pay to play a free game." (Has a kid now) "Mommyyy can you buy me more Vbucks.....& I submit
The older console gamers will know this.... You complete the get credits roll and then GAME OVER :D
This is why I still play some games I honestly don't even like that much. It's just like "God damn it, I payed for it, so I'm gonna play it and like it!"
Idk if its because I'm in Europe or something, but the only game I've seen for 70 so far, is Forza Horizon 4 on steam, are $70 games really that common now?
Load More Replies...waits until shes dead(player comes is):heyyyy i got the missing ingredie-...ill just leave it here :nervous chuckle
Not my fault there are all these side quest in this area and that area and that area in next map.
In skyrim, agreeing to a useless fetch quest sometimes can be the only reason they DON'T die. Some are "essential" while a quest is active, but before or after they can be killed by a random dragon/vampire/cultist/protagonist.
Marble Zone is only commutable by a slow single-lane road. Steve should quit and work for Green Hill Zone; it's loaded with nice bridges and underpasses.
And that is why i prefer games where i don't have other players to worry about. That, and i'm not particularly good ay sharing.
Exactly. Single-player only, please! I don't want to have to find people to team up with (hoping they don't screw you over), and power through several-hour-long dungeons in one go without break because I don't want to be a bother. NOTHANKS.

This is why MMOs started with overrides. I'm not carrying that ugly starglobe when I can carry the Moggle Mog starglobe despite the 30 level difference, override the ugly one with the Moggle Mog one! (yes I main Astrologian on FFXIV with a Moggle Mog starglobe override)

Load More Replies...For some reason I'm reminded of Blizzard "You guys have phones right?" I was NOT happy that day...
Oh, come on. Some of us who played Diablo as a teenagers are grown ups, with jobs (yes plural), kids and other responsibilities. We don't have time to sit and enjoy game like we did once. Only game play we could manage is on phone during lunch break or on a train to and from work or waiting far prescription to be filled. So this was a great announcement for me as an avid Diablo fan. I am still waiting for it to release, it's unfortunate it has been delayed so much.
Load More Replies...Yep. Roll initiative, run to character sheet for ages to triple check prepared spells because I always forget equipment and spells I have.
My friend is deaf/mute and whenever we play multiplayer he has a silent semi-tantrum. Rarely. Because he always beats me.

Our party is like that. Most of us have never played, and the ones who have forget everything
Mine is more like this: Quiet enraged disgust and refusing to play for months to half a year.
I mean yeah, if you can make it to the inn in one piece, you don't gotta pay the hospital fees. I mean, if my mortal wounds healed up completely overnight, why wouldn't I?
Usually a day's rest at the inn will heal you w/o the use of buying potions etc. (Just have to pay the resort fee) lol
I think it was the first Zelda on the N64 with a fishing minigame. Played a lot that time.
Idgaf if Zelda is telling me to hurry, I'ma take years if i'm feeling lazy
HAHAHAHAHA! In Breath of the Wild, if you hit a chicken then they all attack you! It's hilarious!
Stankin' button smashers. I sit there and execute every learned move and complex combo sequences and they're all like tap tap tap ohhhh, I win!
I do that for new characters in smash! If I’m not used to it, I spam the buttons and usually win
Load More Replies...Your problem is you're trying to "hard read" a button masher. It's like "reading" a book in a language you don't know.
Ummmmm..."I'm tied up this weekend.Maybe next?" Problem solved.
Yeah, but on the other hand, you don't wanna miss it. If there hadn't been an invitation, there'd been nothing to miss ;-)

Or it's one of those games where the character's appearance never changes.
