Immersion and Linear Progression

by kapowaz, Friday, July 26, 2013, 08:45 (4140 days ago) @ Cody Miller

Second, this is a THOUGHT EXPERIMENT.

What is it about you that means you can't acknowledge a fundamental flaw in the idea you're putting forward? Is it that crushing to your ego to admit your ideas aren't actually bulletproof?

Well to be fair, I think a game designed like that would actually work, and none of the problems you bring up couldn't be overcome.

‘To be fair’ to whom?
