I would say that making a game addictive is the holy grail of gaming, no?
- Ralith 16y agoFrom the perspective of the people making money off the players? Yes. When I'm actually playing a game myself, though, and recognizing that these two aren't necessarily mutually exclusive, I prefer fun over addictive.
- Tichy 16y agoI'd say the holy grail is to improve people's lives, potentially even make the world a better place.
- Tichy 16y agoWhy the downvote? For me the games I enjoy achieve this. And for whatever job I take on, I actually hope for the same (not just in game development).
