Game requires a fail state. If it doesn't have one, it's not a game.

What about puzzle games? Or point-and-clicks without any death scenes?
Aiden Gutierrez
You can't /thread your own post, RETARD
but yes, /thread

>puzzle games
Time runs out, can't make any more moves, get stuck.
Those are fail states.
>Or point-and-clicks without any death scenes?
That's an interactive story, not a game.
Dominic Watson
Plenty of VNs have fail states, actually. Bad Ends exist in plenty.
Isaac Hill
retard
Julian Taylor
no thats why theyre called visual novels
Joseph Thompson
If its something you intentionally seek out for 100% completion (unlocking CGs, etc) then it's not a fail state.
Landon Thomas
>bitch kills you
>credits roll
That's an ending, not a fail state.
Justin Nelson
>what are bad endings
Jeremiah Lewis
you can get stuck in point-n-clicks. And any definition that classifies something like Mokey Island as not a game is flawed.
Levi Thomas
What about Sims or city builders? Most of them don't really have a fail state
Dylan Harris

Xavier Baker

Josiah Watson
>take video game
>enter cheat code that makes losing impossible
>it is no longer a video game

Idgaf whether they're games or not. They entertain me, and that's something that the vast majority of recent "games" fail to do.
Gavin Brooks
If they're not games, then why are they allowed on instead of being moved to ?
Noah Phillips
That's like saying dying in Desu2 is not fail state since it gives you a bad ending.
Jaxon Morris
Shame the double meaning was probably lost on the creators.
Cooper Parker
Because you weeb faggots stomped your feet hard enough and the jannies couldn't be bothered to deal with your incredible autism any more so they threw you a bone.
Connor Taylor
Fuck you CN
Wyatt Long
There is more GAMEPLAY in Gone Home than in every Visual Novel ever made combined.
Now for the flood of assblasted weebs claiming that pressing a button to advance a box of text dialogue underneath a static drawing of an anime girl is "gameplay".
Asher Russell
they should be moved to what the fuck is desu2? sounds like shit
Evan Moore
Then you need to go back, newfaggot.
Jace Ramirez
Is Ace Attorney a game?
Nicholas Richardson

Evan Wright
I've had sex, so you are correct.
Nathaniel Young
>2008
>not a newfag
Asher Jones
