current driving motivation for writing pluck is figuring out how to write actual gamer speech
may have mentioned before that my pet peeve is "gamer" characters in [insert current year] still only talking about "getting the high score" and "getting to the next level" which 1) i don't think anyone's ever talked like that irl unironically and 2) those concepts don't even apply to like 80% of modern games that most people play
i think there's a lot of terminology that slips into people's vocabulary irl (either unironically, ironically, or accidentally) that i consider very interesting, though it is a bit harder for me to examine it from the inside
either way, gimme them gamers that blame lag irl and say they're throwing and talk about speedrunning extremely normal things
