Purpose of My Writing

what am I trying to gain personally? - I want more insight into the media i like - why was this game fun? - why was that story interesting? - why was a character's growth over a show good? - why did that make me sad/happy/mad? - more knowledge about how media is made in general - what does a director do? - what are the production stages of media? - cinematography/3d-modeling & rigging - storytelling - what goes on at the exec meetings they have and how does that effect games? - take the time to think about things! - if there's something i don't like or a trend im seeing that i do like.. or anything really. - maybe i learned some new terms or came across something interesting that connects to a specific piece of media, then right about it and showcase that new info with that medium. am I trying to provide anything to other people?

  • honestly, i don't think so. - well maybe that's not true. like for example, we talked about assassin's creed for a little bit today and i wanted to mention how they were really trying to change action-adventure genre with that game and created an entirely new engine for it to showcase next-gen console power.
    • to also maybe show people why they like the media they like. (i question this motive)
      • and to talk about what is done in games that maybe makes people not like them.
        • and also, it's more criticism for actual developers. like a, "I really thought hard about this, and this is what i think about this particular thing" and maybe even give solutions if i can think of any.
  • simply a curator of games. put my taste of media on display and describe my taste in media. allow others to understand my taste in media to determine if i align with their tastes. then follow me for recommendations.
    • just a standard thing that comes with The People Who Talk About Games.
    • like, i know if a friend tells me about a game they're playing, i'm likely to also be interested in the game. be that person for other people.
      • (i kinda already am when it comes to older anime in my small circle of friends)
    • answer the "so what have you been playing recently?" question, basically.
