After you read this article come back here and read the rest of this forum post....
...okay so now you read it. I was reading that yesterday And I started remembering games that the Killswitch had flipped on for me. And then I started thinking that maybe you all had some killswitch experiences too. Basically the goal of this thread is to mention times that you might have experianced the "Killswitch" with games you've played. So I'll start
LEFT 4 DEAD :
Yup, I felt exactly the same as in the article. It just got old and I felt like it was some sort of deja vu crap. Sure the game was good but I got bored real fast with everything.
ROLLER COSTER TYCOON (whole series):
A long time ago (back when I was a kid) I bought a game called [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Rollercoaster-Tycoon-Deluxe-Jewel-Case-Pc/dp/B0008G1NEI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1247852342&sr=8-2"]roller coaster tycoon[/ame] for some reason that I don't remember I had been thrilled with the whole idea of playing this game. and after playing only 3 levels for a total of 2 (very spread out) weeks, I decided to buy the rest of the series (expansion packs and sequals). The killswitch came in the middle of playing the third game, I had decided to skip past the first two games after I saw the graphical improvements in the third game. Anyways I was having a great time building and hiring slaves...I mean employees to work at the amusement part. When out of the blue I looked at the top of the screen and I found that I was out of money. I got upset! This was unfair! I slammed down my mouse!!! What was the point of playing a game where I had to work hard to manage everything, when that's what I'd have to do in real life?!!! I still have the entire game series today and I've never touched it since the Killswitch flipped for that game.
...okay now you get the idea of how this thing will work. Your story can be any length, just so long as it doesn't go into mindless shit. have fun! :woot:
