Love to get performatively mad at warning labels in the kitchen to impress the wife. "Don't climb into the dishwasher? Haha who would do that? You gotta put warning labels on everything now because people are so dumb. Real sign America is dying"

ff7 had so many mini games. motorcycle, chocobos, ft condor, parade, train, a casino full of games, paleontology, snowboarding, mountaineering, submarine, and a bunch of others. plus the levels were hand-drawn puzzles you had to navigate but they gave you an option to turn on little pointers to show you where to go. lots of variety, good design

the remake better include dolphin jumping.

I was one of those kids who obliterated his palms by spinning the control stick. remembering when nintendo offered to provide protective gloves to owners of mario party 1 with a serene smile of perfect wisdom spreading across my face

years later I would do something similar by rubbing my thumb across the X and O buttons for the button-mashing attacks in god hand and giving myself blisters, because as a gamer, I have never learned a single thing in my god drat life

for me, its more about if the failure is interesting or not

its not very engaging to have to backtrack through several areas cause an item was in a barrel that looks like all the other indestructible barrels but this one needed to be broken to progress. so painted barrels or whatever dont really bother me

however, it is interesting if my truck tips over and dumps all of my cargo into the nearby river. Now i have to engage in different sorts of gameplay to resolve the gently caress up

friction can be a good thing, as long as it is interesting or engaging in some way

now that yellow paint is the shorthand gamer language for "go here" it's gonna be fun to see games use it to intentionally gently caress with players to lead them down dead ends

i think games should start incorporating hobo sigils, like "friendly people," ""tender vittles," "pretty wife," "this is not a place of honor," etc

"other players can use the stuff you made" is one of the coolest Death Stranding things that feels like such a natural extension of the Soulslike message system, I can't to see what other places it goes in the future.

Fortnite was the second ever "strand-type" game when they introduced those trees you could plant on the island that you could harvest loot fruit from but other players could grab poo poo from your tree too.
