Your most conflicting game design choices

I play games to experience the world, not to take a skill test.
It's not comparable to fast forwarding a movie, it's watching the movie without constantly rewinding.

It depends on the game though. Racing games are my skill test. lvl 120 +49 in DC, #720 on the world leaderboard and still climbing.

The nuances of the gameplay is part of that experience. It has nothing to do with testing skill. It's about becoming intimate with a set of rules and parameters. Like I said, you don't read Shakespeare to "test your reading."

It's exactly like fast forwarding. You're skimming over the details and missing out on a lot of the experience.
