I have played games with the same group of people, including some who believe they are above being influenced by game design and seen their behavior change based on the game they are playing. People will be influenced to varying degrees, but no is immune. I believe in the efficacy of game design because I have experienced its effects in myself and others.In my experience the sorts of people who claim to not be influenced at all by the process of play are often the same sort of people who think they are immune to marketing, sales, and personal influence techniques. I have never actually met such a unicorn where those things were in fact true.</blockquote>
