Gaming

wanderlust

Weird wake fact: Red Dead Redemption turned me onto the satisfying sound of horse hooves on wooden bridges in open world games. A seemingly unimportant sound effect that, for me, reveals much about that world.

This comes up often in gaming: there are many virtual horses, many more virtual bridges, and they often meet.

And when good meets board, I listen.

My favorites, in no specific order:

RDR1 and RDR2
Ghost of Tsushima
Witcher III
Breath of the Wild

Immersion is huge for me in games. I want to dive into a completely new world and sometimes be tricked that I’m actually there.

Small details like this are super important!

I think it’s those small details that reveal the love and soul of the developers and such

Those small details are evidence of the game studio pushing past “good enough” and really digging deep

Love it

They're crucial for me.

I spent a LOT of time looking at inconsequential stuff in Skyrim. Ivy, embers, stone pavers, all of it. I soak that shit up.
