Re: Cutscenes are rewards

In Response To: Re: Cutscenes are rewards (Revenant1988)


: ^^This is one of the most videogame-hipster things I've ever heard you say.
: You are saying that things aren't as fun or cool unless they are
: underground and not a lot of people know about them.

That's not what I am saying. I'm saying the best communities are self generated.

: I understand what you're saying about discovering things on your own and the
: enjoyment that can come with that but the other thing that can come with
: that is frustration for NOT discovering things or having hints to find
: them when you get stuck.

: Some people aren't as gifted as you Cody, some people like having a little
: direction to get started. Some people like having a little push when they
: are frustrated.

What do people do in sports? They talk to their coach, or players better than themselves if they get stuck. This is what you should be doing while playing video games - seeking out people who are good / doing cool things / fun to play with. Take some responsibility for yourself. It has nothing to do with being gifted.

If you need a push, go find one!

: When I was a kid and a game frustrated me I quit playing that game because it
: wasn't fun if I couldn't figure it out. Sometimes, you get stuck. If my
: friends didn't know it or there wasn't a players guide for that game, or
: an article about in a game mag, that was it.

There is nothing wrong with this. If you aren't having fun with a game, then you SHOULD stop.
