How do YOU entice people to play your games? A rational economic actor should understand that by design the house always wins in the aggregate. How do you get them to play?

They mostly aren't there yet, but you're right. They mostly operate on different reasoning. But suppose you meet the one who is outwardly hyperfeminine but psychologically more masculine.

What kind of retarded question is that? A good game is one that people enjoy playing.

Humans are driven by primal biological urges. A lot of these urges cannot be fulfilled in our modern society so your game should try to simulate one of these to make people feel more fulfilled in their life.

These primal urges are also what gives rise to all of the literary archetypes we see repeated in stories.
A more primitive animal like a monkey will go out and forage for food to share with their offspring or family group because of unconscious biological urges. Human consciousness allows us to run simulations inside of out head before we act it out in the real world. Over time humans who found it enjoyable to run these simulations inside our head bred more than the ones that didn't find it enjoyable because it allowed them to prepare for every possible scenario. This reward system is why we enjoy things like games, movies, books, and other forms of story telling.

Would you say that well-simulated barbarism dressed up in a polite mask could be considered a good game?

>> No.14585030

>>14584905
It could work depending on how its made. Seems like that would simulate a lot of the social urges which are missing in most peoples lives. Don't try to reinvent the wheel either. Look at games that have already been proven to be successful and use their mechanics for your game.

But they have to reasonable expect a payout, or you have to essentially play to their gambling addictions.
