[QUOTE="𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓹𝓪𝓻𝓷𝓪𝓼𝓼𝓮, post: 16097, member: 6"] i'm mostly interested in games that allow me to feel like my will is being exerted in the world of the game, possibly even surpassing what the author could think of / intended for the player. i don't like the feeling of being puppeteered into driving forward something the author has already determined as "right"; i don't like the feeling of being instrumentalized. i think the medium of video games is best when it allows you to do the opposite. this possibly even contributes to my love for melee and tf2 -- players have pushed the physics engine and "rules" of the game beyond what the creators imagined, making competitive play more like speedrunning.
