That's because fantasy is, in part, longing for a simpler time.

A simpler time, with wizards and booby traps.

You don't know my childhood

You would not believe how often I wished life was more like a videogame or an RPG.

Don't think you're alone in that thought.

>I wish life was like fantasy

yes

Honestly sometimes it's less 'I wish I lived in a world of magical castles and knights' and more 'I wish I was earnestly enjoying even the little moments of the life I'm living.'

Is this just fantasy?
