1. Can games reflect what we are like? How do games influence us (especially youth)? Can we categorize people by the game they are playing?
Although I don’t like video games that much I want look into why other people do. That’s why I posted a list of best games but it’s PEOPLE that are my main area of interest.
2.When I was thinking about projects that I have done in the past they all fell in the categories o games that I like the most. I like quizzes, card games, chess and some other games that require body movement. I was trying to figure out what I like about gaming and I realized that I like: challenge, thinking abut strategy, concentrating on one thing, taking a risk, gambling , improvising, getting excited, forgetting about everyday else…
The most important fact is that although playing games require thinking, planing or other “effort” it helps me relax and feel better. That’s why I want to create games/environments were (hopefully) people would get some adrenaline going…
