Hi Teresa, I agree with you for the most part. In a lot of my games, the ones I am working on, the enemies are unreal creatures like skeletons, centaurs, harpies, and so on. It still involves violence, but I don't think killing monsters or mythical creatures is the same as killing real people in games.
That said, even when I do play games with real people I don't necessarily have any intention of going out and doing that in real life. I know that the terrorists or enemy soldiers are make believe, are just products of the developer's imagination, and don't necessarily have anything to do with the real world. So killing people even in games is not really as bad as people make it out to be. Cheers! On 12/15/13, Teresa Cochran <[email protected]> wrote: > I don’t think games have to be about killing people.
