Conan O'Brien does not play video games. Hell, he doesn't even really like them. That said, it's always a treat when he sits down to play one as part of his Clueless Gamer video series. And this week, the game in the hot seat is the highly-anticipated Final Fantasy 15. It uh… it might not be for him.

There's already a bunch of comments on the video's YouTube page complaining about how negative Conan's reaction was and how there wasn't a full appreciation for the game. But I gotta say, this might be my favorite Clueless Gamer segment so far. First of all, the guy is a comedian, so of course he's going to poke fun. Second, it's called "Clueless Gamer" - his apathy and lack of understanding is part of the bit.

Third, and most important of all, it's okay to laugh at yourself and the things you like. I don't know about you, but I'm still massively interested in FF15 - a comedian's ribbing isn't going to change that. Just sit back, enjoy the show, and be secure in your hobby.

Besides, being forced to push a car through the desert does sound like a pretty arduous waste of time.
