This Does Not Work Now, why does this not work? It's kind've complicated, but I want to tackle this challenge. So, lets break it down. Interactivity The very thing that makes video games it's own medium is the interactivity. It's so much easier to be immersed when you're controlling the actions of the main protagonist for 90% of the game or controlling the flow of the story. When you strip that down you're left with this bare sub product that doesn't feel right because the story and characters weren't created with television or movies in mind.

Clothing an obvious bit since they are in public. Functionality is rather obviousl
