Comment on Sincere question: why play long video games?
Paradachshund@lemmy.today 2 weeks agoI love Cyan games. Not just Myst, I still play whatever they put out to this day.
I first experienced those games watching my dad play them, so they were very formational for me. I went on to play lots of other point and click adventure games, too.
I haven’t done much with VR. I don’t own any of the tech and I’ve only tried it once. To be honest it was a bit nauseating for me so I haven’t had much desire to try it again.
So would you rather be able to experience your own ideas, since you don’t like experiencing other people’s? For me getting to see an imagined setting is very fun (when it’s a good one). Same goes for movies and books. I’ve always been a fantasy and SciFi fan (though I hate generic fantasy and scifi, it needs to be an interesting setting I haven’t seen before for me to really get into it)
