[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7716142"] *facepalm* Oh boy, it's one of [I]those[/I] articles by some older person complaining about how us young people are doing it wrong. All you left out was "millennials", "SJW"s and a complaint about common core. This isn't news. It isn't informative. It's [I]barely[/I] blogworthy. I can grab any person over 50 off the street and hear this same complaint, just replace gaming with "sports", "work ethic" or some other garbage about how back in their time life was hard and we are all spoiled little wimps. What's worse is that this [I]could[/I] have been a totally awesome awesome article about useful ways to ensure players feel the consequences of their actions as meaningful. It [I]could[/I] have been a totally awesome article about balancing rewards to the content you're offering or finding ways to reward players for their actions outside of giving them +1 magic swords that are interesting and [B]meaningful[/B] towards their character concepts. But no. It's a whine about how us young people are ruining the world. It's an old man on his porch shaking his fist at some youngsters walking in front of his house.
