I suppose but that's not very useful from a marketing standpoint, which markets more or less determines genres. I agree with you point earlier that cozy games have been dumbed down, which is what I saying. It was sort of different than tahko's point though

And I think there is a time and place for frictionlwss games but if you build an entire genre out of it I'm not sure it will last very long

I get that but I feel the appeal of cozy games may not actually be in the frictionless part. It's a misunderstanding. I suppose I'll point to Stardew Valley as exhibit A and perhaps someone will point to Crow County story mode as as a another counter

I see that you were making a different point about their moral messages, and sorry about my soap box. But still.

No you're cooking. The problem is "cozy" just means "boring" now. And I don't mean that in a sexist way. I'm saying even games about folding clothes with pastels need a degree of friction โ€“ and thought put into the mechanics ! โ€“ in order to hold attention

I never did either lol. I always played it until the last dungeon as a kid and then played it again as an adult. When I got to topo (and beat her) the game kept freezing!

It's worth a little bit

Why do we even care about this website. It's like freaking out over the people's choice awards

You would look so cute in it

Kinda hard to impress people at karaoke night when you don't do karaoke

Do you like Musashi?

I...I suppose both pose analogous challenges ?

It's so complex and doesn't seem like it has a track to know if you're getting better, but i could just be lazy

Cool! Will follow it. I suspect it will take tens of hours of gameplay to crack the first layer

Tahko where can I go to understand kirby air riders

I have a lot of regrets in my life, but probably none more so than skipping Daft Punk during their Alive 2007 tour because I was up all night working before the show.

Thank you. They have community bands usually associated with colleges in rural areas. I'd like to try it with violin but can play the tuba

Dreamcast Worlds A Design History does this with a whole console and some games on it, but then I guess Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia etc. are more obvious choices than Monkey Ball

These are Olympic level athletes and it probably extends to other skills

I wonder if you've played the re-release of Riviera on Switch. You functionally get the choice between two games with the QOL changesm Unless you're familiar with the gba version it's impossible know which is bette. But all the "unfair" risk, and also interesting decision making is sanded down
