A lot of whatever you say is astonishingly legitimate and it makes me ponder why I hadn’t looked at this in this light previously. This article truly did switch the light on for me personally as far as this specific subject goes. But there is one particular position I am not necessarily too cozy with so while I attempt to reconcile that with the main idea of the point, let me see just what the rest of the visitors have to say.Nicely done.

Maybe you could get someone to write a Plants vs. Zombies book? Something quirky and fun. Maybe a graphic novel?

Or maybe someone already is?

One of the most interesting games I’ve played recently was Heavy Rain. I’d heard it called very novel-like by numerous people, but I didn’t really understand how true it was until I played it. Story featured very heavily, but it was also the character elements that made it fascinating–in part because the player is able to essentially create the characters. There was a much more personalized stake in playing it, and times when I found myself genuinely not wanting my characters to be harmed and fighting to save them. I can’t recall a game having ever had that level of emotional attachment.

After playing that, and other games that have seemed to move more of the focus on story, I think the two formats can work well together. I look forward to seeing how this plays out.
