It's not objectively unpleasant. You just don't think you'd enjoy it.
Alright, lets not say "objectively". But I do think that the idea of sharing your head with those beings is not a nice one. Look at the three geists presented in the antagonists section and imagine being intimately associated with them forever more. The fact that your argument is based on how easy it is to ignore shows that you don't actually seem to think the situation is one you'd ideally choose yourself.

If the choice is geist or death then geist is a very appealing option. If the choice is geist or no geist, maybe you'd still take the offer due to all the perks and powers. But having the geist piggy back on your soul is not a nice thing, and that is in fact one of the key points of the setting.


I'm not saying "Play the game like some big emo and sob about death the whole time". I'm saying that the game, like every other white wolf offering, has it's dark spots. To define it's guiding principles as just having a good time seems to me to be leaving one hell of a lot out.
