Over time, the games suck, and the child begins to live in them, losing the sense of reality and plunging into the world of corpses and monsters:

The child has a dulled sense of self-preservation because he associates himself with the hero, and the hero is one a life on the street baby, not thinking, jumping from tree to tree the hero because it turns out easily;
