| DanneSandin said: Thing is, using that list what's core and what's casual fluctuate over time. SMB isn't a core game by that standard, nor is NSMB. It could be argued that Zelda SS in certain regards is a casual game... And where does that list leave strategy games? They don't really have dark themes - or light themes either. They're not that violent nor sexual... But they're not kiddy games either... And do they evoke deeper emotions? I don't think so... And quite often they have rather simplistic art styles... I think that Veknoid made a great post about how to talk about games!!! |
The point of my post was to advocate for more descriptive words, and push for them when a user mentions casual, core or hardcore by asking questions.
Slow down when reading posts and you will see the intent.
