StaceyPowers Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 @killamch89 was mentioning that he feels like many games today don’t have enough meaningful and enjoyable content. For those of you who feel likewise, what types of content would you like to see incorporated more into today’s video games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) Decisions that affect the outcome of the game. I understand that most games implement this in someway or another but the fact that your decisions have real consequences with in the game is something that I would like to see in most games, instead of the generic/neutral good guy we tend to encounter.

I agree wholeheartedly. This is something needed desperately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call. I too would like to see this. There have been a few games where I was just fine with not making decisions. TLOU was a story about very clearly written characters, for example, and I wanted to know about their decisions, not replace them with mine. And BioShock Infinite to me would’ve made no sense philosophically if there’d been real player choice. I also did not mind Anders stealing the scene in Dragon Age II—because some things are out of one’s control. But I guess outside of specific contexts/justifications, I too would prefer player choice and real, world-altering consequences to be the norm as much as possible.

True, games with a heavy story dont need to rely on decisions fron the gamer , like God of War for example or as you mentioned TLOU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most instances, I'd really like a dynamic game world where the player's actions can affect it but at the same time, your character isn't the centre of the universe.

Regular crouching animations are boring - it needs to be crouching over an enemy with the word "Teabag" popping up on the screen... 24 minutes ago, kingpotato said: there is a beauty to it that we cannot quite explain And hearing how pissed off the receiving part usually is adds to the appeal of tea-bagging.
