Here are some better examples.

I enjoyed both Papers, Please and I Have no Mouth and I Must Scream. Are they fun games? Would anybody call them fun games?

Would you call Gone Home a good game?

I enjoyed both Papers, Please and I Have no Mouth and I Must Scream. Are they fun games? Would anybody call them fun games?

forget yes.


Would you call Gone Home a good game?
No, I wouldn't, because the lack the player interactivity in the games I posted about.
forget yes.
Stop.

My definition of fun: If you like what you are doing, then therefore it is fun.

Stop.

are you telling me my opinion on what i find fun is incorrect

stop OPPRESSING ME

Fun = Learning, and the brain gives us endorphins as a reward for successfully learning something. Hence why people find it enjoyable.

I loving hate people who assume fun is some childish measure of how people enjoy a past-time.


Then what the forget is fiero
I've never heard of that term in my entire life.



Then look it up, it's a useful term.

It's essentially the thrill of victory over adversity. It was mentioned in Reality is Broken, as well as some other sites and videos.
I will admit to not having read the book, but I plan to.

Thanks.

If that's the case, then that only supports my arguments. The brain is rewarding us with a bigger boost of dopamine and adrenaline for successfully circumventing what it perceived to be a life or death situation (since the brain can't really determine between a game and real life once it hits cognitive flow/engagement).

In the context we're arguing fun means "a childish measure of how people enjoy a past-time." Hence why I put fun in quotes.
