There's an entire fucking continent of unexplored mechanics and totally not discovered genres, that we still can't even imagine.
And It's a giant continent I'm not even aware of even what taxonomy of possible genres it has.
I'm just some faggot explorer at the coast of cuba and I'm like aware beyond Cuba it exist some totally unknown giant as fuck America.
The issue is such, when I try to explain this unknown land of genres that we don't have yet, people usually can't understand what I mean or likely they default to talking in terms of european geography, for when I am trying to talk about the Americas or Africa.
the issue is that most gamers and even game developers lack the mental tools, because of their brain structure, to even be able to conceptualize the characteristics of this entire new undiscovered continent of game design.
So, let's do a basic mental exercise, I do hope this allow me to try to make you even question what you know is possible in game design.
Try to imagine, a really hardcore and dificult game, like elden ring or I wanna be the guy, a fucking e-sport autism shit like starcraft, overwatch, LOL.
But, try to imagine it, totally the same dificulty, and the same level of hardcore and dedicated fanbases.
The same shit.
But, try to imagine it without being killed, or the player being able to being killed or without a game over, or an e-sport competition, where both teams wins at the end of the match.
See?
You can't even understand how to think that shit.
It exist in some place, outside what you can neurologically conceptualize as a male gamer.
But, let me tell you, yes, it's fucking possible, It's possible to do what I mentioned to be some stupid nonsense.
And It's a really unknown continent of entire genres that don't exist yet, that are radically diferent to anything we have now.
