A thought about games that mock or judge you for playing them

Games are fundamentally about limitation. Walking across an area isn’t a game, but hopping across an area in a specific pattern becomes a game, because you accept limitations on your movement. Any game that goes “look at how dumb you are for following the path I’ve limited you to following!” might as well be saying “look at how dumb you are for playing baseball and not just hitting the other team with your bat!”
