I think with 7 billion people on the planet, the world has gotten too complex and games are much less crazy making. You can figure out what you actually need to do and not spend all your time wondering "Did I actually do something wrong? Or was I doomed before I began because of my gender, skin color, some decision my parents made before I was born or a million other ridiculous and unknowable details?"

You aren't going to do everything right in a game according to what everyone keeps telling you, fail anyway and wonder what the hell happened. You won't wonder does the AI just hate short people, people who dress like me, or people of my religion while claiming to be fair and objective.
