The Illusion of Distance and its Consequences - Article

[Henrik Alfredsson]

Hello there!

I wrote an article about the "illusion of distance" in games. In other words; how the context of, for example, NPCs make you act in certain situations. The idea for this article came about when I read a book for a usability course at the University, and I thought it was interesting to apply in games.

You can read the full article at http://www.ticktockboom.se/blog

I'd love to discuss it with you guys, if you have something to add

I'm new around here, but I don't see all that many game design threads going, so let's try this!

Cheers!

Well, it's not the article that I expect. There's a lot of articles on the net that just start the topic and show a curiosity. Good luck with the articles, try to make them saing something more that just "it's cool, nice...".
