In Response To: Re: It's always a bit depressing... (bluerunner)


: Yup. Give us a 50 meter wide ravine with a 50 meter high wall and no
: invisible barriers, and we'll spend hours trying to get out of there to
: explore beyond the map, and we'll love it. Give us a 500 meter wide area
: with a 5 meter high barrier and an invisible wall, and we'll complain
: about how restricting it is.

: I think part of it is our natural desire to see what's beyond the next hill
: or at the bottom of every chasm. There may be absolutely nothing there,
: but many people just have to see it for themselves. Even if they've been
: looking at broken textures for hours, they just feel the need to keep
: going just in case they find something. Sometimes we just get tired of
: playing and want to challenge ourselves to get to a certain location.

Which is not really impossible in the newer games, just much more difficult.
You would think that would make it more appealing.

Unless it is cancelled out by the presence of the theatre mode and how easy that makes it to get outside of maps and explore everywhere. "Taking all the fun out of it", as it were.

Seems a bit strange to me, really.
