| OdinHades said: I don't even know what you mean. Sure, Trailers look like movie trailers. It's just the best way to present information in a very short time frame in an entertaining way. But the games themselves? They're not like movies at all. Only a few examples like Heavy Rain would fit in that definition. |
heavy rain is an extreme, and i played through that whole game, liked it a lot for what it is, and i respect it because it is the first of its kind.
i feel like the trailers being like movies show that the developer is putting more focus on the story than on how the game is played or any number of unique things you can do with the game. and im basically wondering why so much emphasis is put on that, and is it just a phase? will we go back to valuing what makes games unique from eachother, or is there always going to be more emphasis on story?
