Wait, what? (Gaming)

I was with you up until "When you dont have to learn or improve".

Have you played Spelunky? The whole point is that you learn and improve, adapting to whatever situation you find yourself in rather than memorising levels.

I don't even like Spelunky (also Im terrible at it), but its absolutely a game about learning.
