Introduction I remember as a young product manager, working on major releases at Disney and Rovio how excited I was for the cutscenes. After release I was responsible for analyzing churn and sharing the results with the team: the cutscenes were driving users out of the game. The team poured their hearts into the work.

There Is No Family In Video Games Video games are art. Interestingly, for an art form with a lot of storytelling, video games almost never touch on real human issues. Art, since the Ancient Greeks/Forever, has always heavily dealt with the workings of the basic building block of human civilization, the family. Also, I AM ANGRY!"

This concept of “secret” doesn’t really make sense in a strategy game, contest, or a puzzle. So technically, it may be more like a “bad puzzle”, but in any case it shares a lot in common with secrets. It also is kind of hard to do, practically, in tabletop games (although it is possible !).

Indeed, one of the main starting points for the design was that it wouldn’t be a puzzle, standing in contrast to the highly puzzle-like nature of Advance Wars. A big part of being a creator – at least, a creator who wants their art to connect with other people – is to meet people where they are. Going forward.

It skips from action to pvp games to puzzles to boss fights with blinding speed. It's really sharp and well-observed, and it isn't a cutscene. That is what art is supposed to do! Sometimes, you will come away from a work of art confused or upset. All killer, no filler. This is a really fun game. It's great writing.

Highly narrative, intricate puzzles, and immersive storytelling. The state of the art has moved on so far that it’s hard to convey how important the idea of “let’s make these behaviors generic” was. Cooking in Sword Art Online is just one example of the way fiction assumes simulationism in depictions of online worlds.
