  11. Is TDM a Game?

    in The Dark Mod

    Posted

    As for your questions there's not an answer I can give you, I believe it's mostly about the general context and the story. And please don't give me packman as an example. It was made some 40 years ago. Things have changed now. As for the FM series I told that already they can be considered a game. But to my knowledge they are still ongoing.

     

    This is a perfect example of non-critical thinking...Modern narrative gaming trends have influenced some to falsely conclude that the narrative is the game, and the game is the narrative...as if somehow they are one inseparable thing, rather than the two separate components they actually are.

     

    A game, is the gameplay mechanics in relation to a challenge component...That's what a game is...A story component is optional...Some games have stories, while others do not...like Minecraft, for example.

    Why do people always insist that a campaign (and an official even) makes it a game?

     

    Ruling out ill-will, the irrationality stems from a collapse in logic, due to non-critical mental conditioning.

     

    After we get the campaign then I could say it's a game. If it so happens that other FM authors build on the story/characters/city of the campaign then there's no doubt it'll be a game.

     

    It's a good thing that it's an objective fact that TDM is a game...The only thing that would change by having a campaign, is then TDM would be a game with a campaign.

     

    That's it...there's nothing more to it...To say otherwise, is simply ignorant.
