Neither long ago nor galactically distant | Fool's Age
https://foolsage.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/neither-long-ago-nor-galactically-distant
Game design and modern culture. Neither long ago nor galactically distant. Posted August 8, 2012. Filed under: Computer Games. So, SWTOR, eh? That was really a good game, but never a great one. I stopped playing a couple of months ago and have been pondering what to say about it in post-mortem. So what went wrong with the cutscenes and conversation choices? Not only do we rely on NPCs for all of our quests, as usual… they don’t know who we are. If I literally just saved (or defeated) the ...But every oth...
The Secret World should be less of a secret | Fool's Age

Game design and modern culture. The Secret World should be less of a secret. Posted August 10, 2012. Filed under: Computer Games. Tags: the secret world. So there’s this MMO… you might have heard of it, and you might not have. It’s called The Secret World (TSW), and it launched just over a month ago. So what’s new and exciting in TSW? The game is afoot! Oh, and there are deliberate red herrings, too. TSW is also a very, VERY lore-deep game. That is to say, it’s a game about conspiracies and anc...All of ...
GW2 First Impressions | Fool's Age
https://foolsage.wordpress.com/2012/08/29/gw2-first-impressions
Game design and modern culture. Posted August 29, 2012. Filed under: Computer Games. Tags: guild wars 2. A wild GW2 appears! It uses Dynamic Events. It’s super effective! I’m getting ahead of myself though. Let’s start from the top and talk about the basic feature set of GW2. In GW2, this mostly goes out the window. Oh, there’s still a variant of traditional questing (see the section on Hearts below), but that’s fairly limited. The real meat of the PvE system lies in the Dynamic Event...The skritt stole ...
Area completion in MMOs | Fool's Age

Game design and modern culture. Area completion in MMOs. Posted September 11, 2012. Filed under: Computer Games. Tags: guild wars 2. I’ve been spending some time recently playing GW2, and I think in some respects they’ve done a better job at solving the problem of area completion of any MMO yet. I don’t however think that the problem is fully solved; some issues remain. What is area completion? How do current MMOs address this problem? Not only do the GW2 mechanics sustain both challenge and reward, they...
Unplanned Fun in GW2 | Fool's Age

Game design and modern culture. Unplanned Fun in GW2. Posted September 12, 2012. Filed under: Computer Games. Tags: guild wars 2. I find myself feeling a little like I have ADD when I play GW2. Which is to say, there are so many distractions, that often I decide to do something and get partway through before something else comes up. This is a good thing. And it was glorious.

Avengers: Age of Ultron Film Review. May 10, 2015. For the escape of heroism to work, you need to have a hero fighting a noble cause against dastardly villains. Enter the Avengers: Age of Ultron. Film This is the second movie in the Avengers installment of films. To be blunt, the second film fell far short of the expectations the first film had created. And here’s why….

Deconstructing the Groupthink of the Reddit Echo Chamber. July 4, 2015. The most passionate members of the community often become moderators and proceed to quash any form of dissent. Dissent can be just someone trying post a good faith suggestion to make something better. This is the problem of groupthink. This problem is everywhere. It’s on traditional video game discussion forums, news website forums, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and the latest social media darling called Reddit. I want to briefly addres...

Fool's Age | game design & modern culture
Game design and modern culture. Posted July 3, 2013. Filed under: Computer Games. I finished Dragon’s Dogma yesterday. I’m unsure at this point whether I’ll go back and finish off the expansion, Dark Arisen. I’d largely enjoyed my time with the game, but the ending really wasn’t much fun at all. And it was three different NPCs monologuing, too, which doesn’t make it any better. Here’s the plot [SPOILERS AFTER THE JUMP]: Read more ». Two Massive PS3 RPGs: Kingdoms of Amalur and Ni No Kuni.

January 10, 2012 · 12:14 am. I’ve had a slightly strange couple of months, hence the posting delay.

Awkward.) was important because I didn’t want to share how I was feeling angry and disappointed. The biggest box of memory sits on my floor with an uneasy promise of nostalgia within.
