I can’t read that without hearing Homer say “Nine Inch Naaaaiiiilllls?!”

For example, Deuce Bigelow, European Gigolo

I give your comment 3 stars

I’m still waking up; I thought that was Steve

This sounds like a good thing. Maybe I will check the name out in the future.

But that would mean that OP is…

Is there video of this?

Sorry, when you said “have the mindset that you are the character”, that came across to me as believing you are the character. Also, I have been told in the past by people who care about immersion that that is what immersion is, so I’m still trying to grasp what it actually is.

I’m also struggling to see having a UI hurts immersion, especially since, as you say, reading a book is immersion, and a book is all text. I’m wondering, also, if maybe different people mean different things when they talk about immersion.

That sounds like the same thing. If I actually believe I am actually the character, I have been tricked.

This makes more sense to me than the “I believe I’m actually in the game world” definition I’ve been given before

I feel like what you’re talking about is something more like “deep involvement”

I don’t think it’d be possible to trick me into thinking I’m not playing a video game. You can have 0 UI, and I’ll still know I’m looking at a screen and pushing buttons. Maybe way off in the future when VR has gotten a lot better, sure, probably.

In your general direction

Kids might not even know the AI Michael Jackson and Ronald Reagan in Back to the Future 2 are based on Max Headroom.

A more active pro-wrestling community that includes the wrestlers and journalists who all still only post to Twitter

Or spam. Lots and lots of spam.

You keep talkin like that, you might end up sleepin with da fishes!

For some reason the left margin is in the center of the screen for me on mobile

Finally.

Been enjoying cyberpunk but I keep going back to Xcom: Enemy Unkown
