      I too think it's pretty interesting, but just not for the right reasons. It certainly grabbed my attention as being something I'd never seen before, but that doesn't stop it from being fucking stupid.
      
      Even if it is supposed to represent your own personal thoughts, does this way of presenting the information make it any better than something more conventional? In my opinion, no it doesn't. I'm not even a great fan of realism in games, but if I'm going to be made to view something that I know couldn't possibly exist in reality, it's bound to break immersion more than any number of existing devices.
      
      Of course I'll have to see how it works in-game to truly judge, but from the off, it just doesn't sit well with me.
      
      
      Aside from the pivotal debate, I'm only 23, and so only 2 years older than yourself. Maybe I just started playing games at a younger age or something, but there's really no need for such derogatory tones.
