What's the one main feature you look for in todays pc games? This can range from story, social interaction, graphics, gameplay or originality.
I find it hard not giving two as I like social interaction but I'm not going to go play hello kitty online, and I like gameplay but I hate playing against computers. I'd say social interaction I guess, if I solely had to play against AI I wouldn't play computer games at all.
Hm, I would go for a mix of gameplay and story depending on genre(and my mood). Social interaction used to be my main focus, but these days social interaction has a different meaning...
High strategic skill cap. I want decisions to matter and have a lot of relevance. I dislike high mechanical skill caps for the same reasons.
Yeah something with different endings in which decisions really do matter, this is imo the only thing dividing games from books and movies, yet it is barely exploited.
As much RNG as possible!!! On a more serious note, I only buy games with an in depth multiplayer. Other than that, needs to require player skill, not shitty ingame skills or perks to balance out good and bad players. Sent from my HTC Desire using Forum Runner
Giving the player choices of how he fights, how he wishes to progress, who to attack, how to attack, chose your friends and enemies, become either a white knight/greedy traveler/overlord with a castle and slaves or a mix of everything. When was the last time I could optionally have slaves in a game?
Sandbox.. nothing is as challenging as real peoples creativity. Something that was said when we started playing Archeage. "I feel like i'm at the start of an amazing journey fashioned by my own actions, as opposed to being at the beginning of someone else story, written by a stranger."
freedom for me as a player to play it differently then others. to be able to choose what i want to do in the game (no thanks to the 1 path forged RPG'S) and a ton of multiplayer content
