    This might sound dumb…but playing Binding of Isaac as a young adult really changed my outlook on life and I still carry the lesson with me.

    Life is a roguelike. You get one play through. It’s always difficult. You get lucky sometimes. A lot of times you don’t. Some people get better RNG and better loot drops than you and have a much easier run. You can make a sacrifice or “beat a difficult boss”, but the game is not obliged to give you any good reward and sometimes you get nothing. The choices are what they are in front of you. You can complain about it, but can’t change things. You’ve just got to make the best of what you get.

    The life lesson I will carry with me forever is: “it is what it is”. Life is a roguelike.
