Videogames are boring once you embrace RPG?

[QUOTE="Warrior Poet, post: 6911127, member: 1057"] A veces. Pienso que hay algunas razónes: 1) Improvements in video games do not always include improvements I seek. Graphics and sound are fine, but lack of a good story does not hold my interest for long. Role-playing games need a good story, too, por supuesto, but the inherent mutability and dynamism in an rpg allows adjustment to unfold regularly, at the participants' pace, and with the participants' input. Ser muy importante. 2) My taste in video games has changed over the years (I am old enough to remember the arrival of Pong and Pac-Man). Now I want a good story, and a game that lets me take my time, and make the choices I like to make. I prefer video games that offer players a chance to [I]play[/I]. Cut-scenes are fine, but too many, too long, too much and I lose interest. 3) I prefer video games that do not hold my hand, and allow me to explore, advance, and play at my own pace, in my own time. The amount of time I spend playing video games has slowly diminished. I have become more selective. 4) I do not like to play video games online against other people. Es no más mi preferencia personalmente. Many video games feature or insist on multi-player, and single-player is what I like better. Video games—for me—are an introverted activity that I can use to recharge (soy introvertido). On the other hand, I like playing role-playing games with other people, where I enjoy cooperation more than competition. 5) To a certain degree, many video games are caught in an "arms race" related to the technology required to operate them. As I grow older, I have less interest in "keeping up" with the technology updates and upgrades required to stay abreast of many video games. 6) I was playing rpgs before I ever played video games. No game type since has inspired my imagination to the same degree, even though I have enjoyed many video games. Rpgs continue to inspire. 7) With rpgs I connect with my dearest friends. Eso es lo mejor. ¡Que se vaya bien con usted, suyos, y todos sus juegos! Still learning, Robert [/QUOTE]
