About Me |
I'm a sucker for storytelling. I'm convinced that a well-told bad story is much better than a poorly-told good story. I have a great deal of respect for writers that can tell big, dramatic, serious-business stories but at the same time don't shy away from throwing a bit of lulz here and there. Any story that dares to not take itself too seriously scores a good deal of points in my book from the get-go. I think gaming has an exciting potential for a totally new form of narrative, but only in recent years it's started to be properly exploited, looking for a method unique to games instead of shoehorning techniques from other media.
Something like that, I'm quoting from memory. My point is, Crysis will look outdated and even ridiculously awkward in a couple years, but Psychonauts will stand the test of time forever.
