WE’LL HEAR WHAT YOU SAY IF...

Recently one of the world’s most beloved video games dropped its polished reimagining for fans worldwide to gawk over.

That’s right, Final Fantasy VII Remake, have finally released after all these years. With stunning graphics, reimagined gameplay, and a story that’s sure to pull your heart strings, it’s no wonder fans are itching to play this game.

I want to play this game so damn bad but I still haven’t bought a PS4, so I went to YouTube to watch gameplay.

That’s when I got sucked into watching someone else play the game in its entirety step by step and I love it.

Some people can’t understand how others can watch someone else playa an entire video game. 

Well here’s how..

I. VALUABLE COMMENTARY

When I watch theradbrad’s videos it is worthwhile because of the commentary. He always walk you through his process in approaching the game, tell mini stories, and give a lot of background context to a game I never played before.

I went to watch other gameplay videos because I couldn’t wait to see what happens next and I just couldn’t do it. The other vid had no talking and it didn’t make me feel connected to the game at all.

Sure the whole point of the video is to see the game, but theradbrad’s commentary provided an invaluable experience.

Which is why I won’t know what happens in the game until he makes a video showing it first.

II. YOUR VOICE MATTERS

Just like theradbrad, you can use your voice in a natural way to cultivate an audience. Use your voice for things you are passionate about and try to incorporate some of your personal life  into the mix.

Theradbrad, speaks about how the game differs from the original when he played and give stories about how it was as a ten year old to play such a massive game.

Whatever your topic is you have to let your audience feel connected to you. Stick to the facts, inject some humor, and most of all have fun.

You may not reach a gazillion subscribers but I can assure you, you will have people in love with your content dying for the next piece you decide to release.

LIFE IS OPEN WORLD GAMEPLAY

​LIFE IS OPEN WORLD GAMEPLAY

If you ever played games like Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy then you have played what are categorized as "open world" games. Meaning games that encompass the player to "free roam" and not follow a linear structure. In open world gameplay, you have the main storyline alongside a bunch of side quests/missions that are optional to complete but may give cool bonuses.

The gameplay is quite analogous to life in which, the storyline is our life's purpose and anything outside of our purpose may be positioned as a side quest. Knowing our lives are much more explorable/expansive than a video game it takes great responsibility to stay on track for our purpose. Often times we can get caught in the things that don't matter and it can delay the time on fulfilling our purpose[storyline].

Final Fantasy XV, available now for XBOX ONE/PS4

Life is meant to be fun and enjoyed from many different angles but we must remind ourselves that we are working with limited time. Learning to work efficiently and staying on track is key to enjoying our lives to the fullest extent.

LIFE'S A PARTY

Two of my favorite video games are the Final Fantasy and the Kingdom Hearts series. They are part of a popular video game genre known as RPG (role playing game).

One of the key elements of a RPG is something known as a party. A party is a group of characters that goes on an adventure in the game. That concept is very much analogous to life being which we too are on a journey and many people are along for the ride. However a crucial point to a party in a RPG is that you can’t go through the entire game with the same party.

Different scenarios requires a different combination of characters. You may need a character that can open a door to a certain level, one of them may posses a key battle element, or simply one character may be cooler to have around than the other. In any case, life requires a slot swap just like a RPG because certain situations cause for certain people. It may be someone holding the group back so they have to get swap out or it may be someone who has the extra push you needed so they must get swapped in. An alternation is always required because life is a multi layered experience constantly increasing in difficulty.

Another key element for a party is a synchronization bonus. Meaning that a specific character combination causes a significant power increase that greatly benefit the player. Life’s synchronization bonus is most associated with people who come together that is on the same frequency/mission. When you have the extra support of knowing everyone around you shares the same mindset , it gives you (the player) an increased boost in ability to conquer uncharted territory.

Just like a RPG life has many roles for us to fulfill. It doesn’t matter the role we take as long as it is the right one for us and may we fulfill that role alongside the right people.
