Thats an interesting way to approach the series. But arent you missing the significance of some of the events in the game world by not having the background of what is going through the characters and their motives in the decelerated world?
No, because every single episode I watched so far has the characters in the game world giving long monologues at the start of the episodes explaining their exact motivations and the circumstances in the real world... without me having to ever see those scenes! Lol.
