As of now, the page is a mess.

The trope description claims that it is a concept (that gamers need to invest time and dedication in order to have fun) that takes the form of various tropes.

The example list is just a jumble of random examples to the tropes listed under the description, which should really go on their appropriate page. That's not so bad. But it's also a bunch of examples to tropes that are distinctly said in the page to not actually be an example of this concept but are frequently confused for it! Such as Nintendo Hard and "Stop Having Fun" Guys.

What do you want to do with this page?

My opinion: Not A Trope. It is, as it said, a concept. This concept takes the form of actual tropes, listed in the description.

Maybe make it an index or something, maybe even some sort of a useful notes page with more expansive description and even some articles for required reading (such as learntocounter's famous scathing dissection of the "i play for fun" mentality). Either way, the examples part in its current stage needs to go. Somewhere far.
