A brain teaser
There's something I keep thinking about lately. It's this idea that we only have so much space in our minds for formative gaming experiences and it's diminishing returns forever after.
What bothered me was the idea that nothing could ever be as good as the original Deus Ex because, blatantly, that's not true. Put that old Deus Ex next to the new Deus Ex, or next to games like Dishonored and Prey, and I know which ones I'd rather play. And I know that's not a fair comparison because there's more than 20 years between them, but I think it's just as unfair to compete with a formative memory.him like Deus Ex once did. And that, I understand.
I wonder whether it's a psychological quirk of humans that we are powerless to do anything about. And when I hear sayings like"you can only make a first impression once" and"you can only see a magic trick once", it seems to back it up. The whole idea of 'formative experiences' seems to suggest it's a known, accepted and understood thing, too. And I'm not sure I like it.
