I see.
Maybe I’m just a freak. But when I played Bayonetta, especially 2, I really connected with her character and I felt what she was feeling. Having to kill your own father for the fate of the world, and then meeting him before he was evil and witnessing his downfall... I don’t know why but I really felt how she felt.
And then I played the entire god of war saga and I felt all that times 10. A desperate man who made bad descisions, blinded by rage doing everything he can to fix it, stone for it, and make sure it never happened again.... I relate so god damn much to that and with each game, with each desperate struggle, i felt every emotion Kratos must have been feeling. And it didn’t feel like I was controlling a character on the screen. It felt like I was doing it. I want to do that for other people. I want them to be able to get out of these games what I get out of them. But I don’t know how to do that for others without sacrificing what I like best in them. Which is why I asked if people even thought it was possible.
