  • Use case example: You’re busy doing something, but you send a message to someone and leave the chat open because you can’t close it at that second. You look away from your phone and continue what you were doing. A message comes through but because the chat is open, you don’t hear a sound. Then you get back to your phone 30 minutes later, and find that the person had already replied to you 27 minutes ago. If the sound still played even while the chat was open, you would have stopped what you were doing and responded to them as soon as you got their message.




  • The Last of Us, The Walking Dead game and other Telltale games, Uncharted, The Witcher, God of War, and I guess it’s just a general trend I feel. A lot of games seem to focus on story-driven elements more than gameplay, with an obsession around graphics and story more than anything else (see what Mohamed Enieb says on Twitter, for example).

    And I guess this is somewhat separate, but… why don’t trailers show any gameplay, just cinematic stuff? I don’t play games for the visuals or story personally, I just want good gameplay. I find it increasingly hard to find games I actually enjoy.

    What happened to the likes of Ratchet & Clank, Jak series, Lost Planet, or the Halo series? Those are games with good gameplay, and I couldn’t care less about the stories (or graphics).
