End of an era. Start of a new one.

10+ years: LiDAR → GIS → WebGL → storytelling

Something's shifting. Drawing me toward immersive work.

- The daily video game history fact -

System Shock 2 (1999) helped define the modern immersive sim by combining first-person gameplay, RPG systems, environmental storytelling, and psychological horror.

It directly influenced Deus Ex, BioShock, Dishonored, and Prey.

I have a deep love for what transmedia and immersive storytelling can do, and they’ve warped it into “we really want more properties, but if we put it in the same universe, we can call it the same story and pay less and make more!”

Disregard of an entire art form.

Shenmue has captivated millions of gamers and people worldwide for it's storytelling, characters, interactive world, immersive gameplay, fully detailed enviroment, and how a game like this hadn't really existed in this way before. Shenmue 4 will hopefully capture that same magic.

What I have in mind here is not, FWIW, kitchy Disney technoporn about the shiny gadgets that You, the American Consumer may soon enjoy, but a kind of immersive storytelling where various weird future timelines are sketched via their relics.

It's frustrating, tbh. I always justification as "maximum immersion," which implies a third person camera somehow can't feel as immersive. The most immersed I have ever been in games are those where the storytelling is engaging and my frustrations are minimal.

If they shifted to a new timeline that was coherent and supported it with live entertainment and immersive storytelling, that'd have been great, but instead they're officially closing the door on realizing any aspect of the land's ambitious original design.

The difference in term of immersion couldn't be greater.

In VtM - Bloodlines 2, the lack of interactivity and surface level storytelling contradicting the gameplay...

In Cyberpunk 2077, even the TV program is both immersive and is used a stealth exposition you can spend an hour just looking at it.

Finished What Remains of Edith Finch and wow… the storytelling through puzzle-like gameplay is beautiful.

The game itself is simple and subtle. It makes you slow down, feel, and think.

As it unravels, it hits like a truck. An emotional look at life you play — immersive, powerful, unforgettable.
