Yeah, the real world is pretty mid

Unemployed right now, so I'm gonna go ahead and give the real world a solid 4/10. Would not recommend. If you can get reincarnated into a good situation (harem?), would strongly suggest it haha.

the real world is pretty great if you make good choices.

but it's a lot easier to make crappy choices, like watching Isekai and never going outside. living in a escapist fantasy bubble and eating doordash is a fasttrack to being miserable.

A lot of choices are made for us. People who think it's down to only choices probably ignore all the luck and privileges they experienced. I could have been born in much worse circumstances than I was, and that would not have been due to any choice I made. Children dying in war zones made no choices to get there.
