Dan not taking part in the inane, psychotic drivel you heard last week with a slightly different theme, is one of his strong suits IMO, and it worked well for him with Game Informer as well.

The reason Jeff, Ryan, Dan, Vinny and even Brad are the guys you like to hear talk is because they know that when your talking out loud your supposed to talk like a person and not like the Professional Game Reviews or Articles you write.

Anytime Patrick says "Ludonarrative Dissonance" take a shot and hope Dan starts talking soon.

Anytime Patrick writes "Ludonarrative Dissonance" kill yourself why the gently caress are you reading a Patrick article.

I do not think that is a real word. It sounds like something you would make up for your thesis. The Ludonarative of Tetris and the Folly of Man.

It was probably recently made up by some game journal man but that's how this language works so, you gotta deal with it.

I hate the last two weeks because I was living in a nice world where I listened to the Bombcast and watched Quick Looks and UPF's and never really experienced Patrick. Now I have and I hate everything.

"Ludonarrative, a compound of ludology and narrative, refers to the intersection in a video game of ludic elements — or gameplay — and narrative elements.[1] It is commonly used in the term Ludonarrative dissonance.[1][2][3]

...

Video game theorist Tom Bissell, in his book Extra Lives (2010), notes the example of Call of Duty 4, where a player can all but kill their digital partner during gameplay without upsetting the built in narrative of the game.[3]"

If you ever find yourself thinking about ludonarrative dissonance; stop. Call up your parents and apologize for everything.

Wouldn't Ryan be forever trapped in Patrick's body? Or would he just be like a skeleton or a zombie or something?

So basically you use it when you can't suspend your disbelief.Patrick is the guy that always points out the horror protagonist in a movie is dumb and unrelatable. Sounds like the part of his brain that allows people to have cognitive dissonance is broken.
