I’m all about games but I’m also wary of games that are meant to be a part of a social, intimate experience, rather than a game. I think games that are meant to be a part of a social, intimate experience can be a bit of a double-edged sword. Many people like gaming as a social activity, and I think that’s great. However, I think games can also be a bit of a double-edged sword.
One of the reasons I hate games is because games can be too social, too intimate, too cheesy. At the same time, if a game is meant to be a part of a social, intimate, or cheesy experience, I think thats a great way to have an “I’m-with-you” moment. It seems that lately I’ve been feeling that I want to be with people, but I’m just not ready for that yet.
I think that Im-with-you moments are a great way to connect with people and get them to talk to you as an adult, but I think that Im-with-you moments can also be a bit of a double-edged sword, as it turns out. Because of that, I think many games dont have a lot of Im-with-you moments, and that is why they get a lot of criticism for being too socially-oriented.
I think that Im-with-you moments are definitely a positive thing, but I do think that they can be a bit of a double-edged sword, too. Because Im-with-you moments are usually a part of the game that players get to participate in, I think that it can be a bit of a drag to participate in a game that you don’t care about.
Im-with-you moments are a positive thing, because they show you that the game you are playing is more than just an amuse-you-to-death-and-then-leave-you-for-more game. They allow players to show off their game-playing prowess, but they also let them know that they are more than just a casual player.
Im-with-you moments can be a bit of a drag, not only because they can be annoying, but because they can be a bit of a self-reflection, too. If we can’t do something to show off our accomplishments, then we wouldn’t really be showing off anything.
That’s why the best gaming-invitation games are the ones in which the game invites you to do something. We cant just show up and expect to just be a part of our team. The game will show us where we are supposed to be. But the best games let you do more than that.
A few weeks ago I tried to get into a gaming-invitation game and found that I was too drunk to play. That’s a problem. It is true that gaming invites us to do things, but this is not only because you get to do things, but also because you get to show off your accomplishments. A lot of people have had problems with gamers getting too drunk, but even if you are too drunk to play the game, you still get to show off your accomplishments.
We’ve all been there. You are playing the game and you find yourself with a lot of money in your pocket, but still can’t find someone to play with. So you sit down and start to play, but then you start to get really drunk and you can’t remember what happened, so you go back to the game. How do you get back to the game? Well, you start by asking your buddies.
Thats what we were doing in the new Deathloop trailer. We were all sitting around the table with our buddies and we all started to play the game with no memory of how we got there, just a general idea that we had been there. I mean, that is also cool.
