Why do I relate to these MCs so much? Honestly, I have never ridden a motorcycle in my life and am too terrified anyway, but I certainly have a type with fictional men. (Chance is excluded from the club even with his motorcycle)

I don’t get it. The disconnect between the story and the gameplay is full of cognitive dissonance – teaching…
