GAMER LOUNGE 20XX (NO CASUALS!!)

[Kriven]

I don't usually like sandbox games, tbh. Often I end up lost. It's not so bad if there's a map and some clear objectives, and if the developers have gone to the trouble of making the worlds sculpted in a way to ensure that they'll always be fun to explore... but a lot of time sandbox games end up being barren, glitchy messes. The only one that's "hooked" me, so to speak, is probably Minecraft, but that has more to do with the whole 3D-Spriting thing. Though through that I've become invested in some of the Minecraft world's lore itself.

Usually I prefer to be rewarded for my exploration with story elements, power-ups, whatever... I'm not typically an "Explore the World Because That's Fun" gamer unless the universe of the game really captures me.
