The balance between games and life: starting with the recharge reset of Collapse: Sky Railway

 

Some things in life often quietly enter our world in a way that we don’t expect. And when we start to watch it, we can no longer easily get out of it. The recharge reset in “Honkai: Sky Railway” is like a moment in life. It seems to be a small coincidence at first glance, but in the end, it gradually leaves an indelible mark in our hearts. This mark does not come from the game itself, but from how we treat it and how we face it.

Before all this started, we all thought that everything in the virtual world was just a pastime, like countless entertainment methods, occasionally to relax and kill boring time. However, as various virtual rewards in the game are gradually unlocked, we began to become addicted unconsciously, as if continuous recharge can fill the satisfaction that cannot be obtained in reality. When we first saw the reset of the recharge reward, we might be attracted by the temptation of “double the reward” and feel an impulse in our hearts. So, I clicked “Recharge” and invested some money, thinking: Such repeated investment seems to bring me something different, even the power in the virtual world.

But in fact, we don’t get anything in this virtual world. What you get may be just virtual items or numbers one after another. And what can these prizes and rewards bring to you? Every time you refresh, you get only short-term satisfaction, but never really fill the emptiness in your heart. The excitement and short-term pride brought by each reward will eventually dissipate in the fatigue and loneliness in real life, leaving only the looming sense of loss.

Escape in the game: the real image in life
This is not just a game event in “Honkai Impact 3: Sky Railway”, but a certain mentality that each of us will encounter in life. We always try to escape the difficulties and helplessness in life that we don’t want to face by constantly chasing virtual rewards. Just as the rewards in the game will not continue to bring you real happiness, the material things in life cannot fundamentally bring you spiritual comfort. Every time the recharge is reset, you will have an illusion at some point: you can not only get virtual power by recharging, but also control part of your own destiny. What you want is that sense of control, but it will never make you feel completely satisfied.

Sometimes, it seems that life itself is a repetitive game, and we are just busy and chasing in this cycle, but in the end we don’t know why we work hard. We may feel happy because of the recharge rewards in the game, but the problems in real life will not disappear because of these virtual rewards, and the burden of life still weighs on our shoulders. Whether it is the satisfaction of the virtual world or the difficulties in real life, they can never replace each other. The short-term pleasure brought by the recharge reward and the sense of powerlessness in reality will always collide at some point.

Fantasy and reality: Reflection on life
This situation makes people think: Is there any intrinsic connection between “rewards” and “games” in life? People often escape from difficulties and troubles in different ways, and games, especially the virtual rewards in them, seem to provide us with an effective outlet. However, this exit is full of confusion, which makes us think that we can get what we want by simply paying. However, life is not always like this. We can’t always use “reset” to deal with the difficulties in life, and we can’t think that we have reached the peak of life because of every reward.

Just like every problem in life, we often need to face and gradually solve it. Every effort we make is not to harvest a virtual reward, but to break through ourselves and create a better future. Every time you recharge, it may seem to be to get more virtual items, but the deeper meaning behind it may be a short-term comfort you give yourself when you face the powerlessness in life. The real comfort does not come from the increase in numbers, but from your facing and overcoming the difficulties in real life.

In the game, we always chase those numbers and rewards, but often ignore our own hearts. The real challenge of life is how to maintain a balance: neither being confused by the temptation of the virtual world nor being defeated by the difficulties in reality. Each of us is constantly swinging between the two, but it is important not to let the temptation of the virtual world replace our attention to real life.

Loneliness and connection: reflections from games to life
In the end, the satisfaction brought by the virtual world is always short-lived, while life itself is full of impermanence. Each of us is experiencing changes and challenges in life at different levels, and the real satisfaction does not come from the accumulation of numbers, but from our understanding of life, the cherishment of interpersonal relationships, and the recognition of the true desires deep in our hearts. When chasing rewards in the game, we are actually looking for a kind of self-identity, and this identity is not obtained through virtual numbers, but through a deep understanding of ourselves, others, and the world.

Resetting the value in the game is not a wrong behavior, just as every choice in life is not simply right or wrong. What is important is how we view these choices and how to find our own rhythm and method in the game of life. Every recharge and every reward is an attempt, and it is the process of seeking answers on this long road. The most important thing is that we should not be confused by the glory of the virtual world and forget the most real things in life.

Value in life: How to deal with your inner desires
Looking back, what we really need may not be the rewards in the virtual world, but the lasting inner peace. We can find a moment of relaxation in the game, but more importantly, we must learn to face ourselves in real life and face the pressure and challenges of life. Every time the value is reset, it can be regarded as a reminder to ourselves – when chasing external rewards, we must learn to examine our hearts, stay calm, and not be lost in the temptation of the virtual world.

The meaning of life may not lie in how many rewards you get, but in how you face every challenge in life, how to draw strength from it, and find your own world. Every reset may remind you not to forget your real goal and not let temporary satisfaction cover up your desire for long-term life.
