But a job provides you real money that gives you real options in life. You can't take someone out on a date with your video game points.

I get what you're saying, but with just "a job" these days you won't be taking that attractive person out on a date either.

Real life's feedback loops and progression mechanics are slow and unreliable when compared to games.

It also removes a lot of options due to the time investment and required location.
