Possessed

I just thought.. Life is actually a monstrous Dominion game with huge piles.

Some get very good starting hand, some are not that lucky, but in the end, the game is so big and you have so much control you can still do good and overcome bad luck if you are smart and try hard.

You do something good and useful for yourself or for somebody and you get something decent - like Ironmonger or Caravan, or so.
If all you are doing is fulfilling your immediate need of entertainment - that means you are greening way too early, you are a weak player.
Like, you can go shuffle with some silly Duchess, but how do you explain it to your Princess then, who is still the only one in these endless piles..

And it is so sad to play Big Money,, turn after turn, and you feel you will never ever reshuffle.

I'm confused.

And I thought this would be another topic whining about Possession.

I think you are severely overestimating how much control you have when your starting deck is, for example, 15 Curses.

How many turns it would take to empty the supply with a starting deck of 15 Curses?

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

It depends on the board.
