Pokemon is famous for being the first game to employ child psychologists in its development Team, to analyse what young boys like the most, and to feed that to them.
You my friend, are playing, due to corporate manipulation, when you were young, which triggered all the things in you, they wanted to trigger.
Dark, but true. I’ll try and find a source on this later when I have some time.

It absolutely is perfect to play, as they manipulate using their knowledge of character traits of boys, to give them exactly what they want. Pokemon tastes better than any other game to a young boy. It’s all science.
It’s similar to how gambling companies design games to meet their target audience. Triggering endorphins at the right time, to encourage more usage.
Good or bad, that’s a whole separate debate. However, it’s scientifically designed to manipulate based on desires of that demographic.
While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.
I’ll be doing a workshop in a few weeks, and I wanna raise awareness about predatory lootbox paytowin games.

That was correct about maybe 5 + years ago. However, particularly the latest 4.x builds, the 3d is top shelf. It won’t beat unreal, but it’s 3d capabilities are better than most people’s ability to use them.
Definitely not, they’re huge. They even purchased Weta digital recently (lord of the rings animation company). The’re going nowhere fast. They’re just eeking every little cent they can out of every little crevice of their offerings.
Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.
Exactly. When I watch pirates I watch so much Monkey Island it’s not funny.
I walked past my niece watching it the other day, and there was governor phat, right there on screen. Except it was the king. But it was governor phat.
The dog with the key. The voodoo woman, etc etc etc etc
