it wouldn't be found strewn about.


Gameplay purposes. You'd be surprised how unrealistic video games can be, man. They're not documentaries meant to emulate real life. Shocking, I know...


No, games don't strive to be realistic, but if you ever have something that feels very contrived, you lose the audience. It is not about realism, but about whether or not it belongs in the world. The human behavior of a game should make sense to us.

Indeed, and long conversations that halt space/time in order to happen are not any better than written notes or recorded messages, they're just different. I prefer notes and graffiti if I can't have strong environmental storytelling.
