Heh, I attended that talk but completely forgot about it. ;) I was playing Portal again for kicks and looking at the developer commentary tracks. Portal spends a lot of time training users in a radically new gameplay concept. It's fascinating to hear all the tricks they used to get the player to learn things, as they played the game, almost without effort. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1kvadcJwmE -- Neil Kandalgaonkar ( <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
