We play videogames to become someone else, not ourselves. By taking over bodies, you will find out stuff and, when you use the main character, you will use this information to make them win in whatever they shit they’re doing (which will be strange, because sooner or later the other character will realize you know shit you shouldn’t know, and then you put Free Will philosophy up its ass or something.Ī Slice of Life game is boring. Maybe the story if told backwards, maybe the protagonist can astral project or something, maybe they can take over bodies, maybe YOU can take over bodies for a moment, while still playing as the main character.
Now, what makes a Slice Of Life games interesting if they're not about great adventures, but about normal life? Parkour? Time Travel? I think that the central mechanic could be dialog choice and decisions and stuff, but it’s not original, it’s not enough for a game. If you want to make a Slice Of Life videomage, it has to have something special. The Sims worked fr some reason, but it's already made and another one will not work. The thing is, nobody will play a videogame that is the same as real life.
SLICE OF LIFE GAME SERIAL
Then the whole Time Travel and Serial Rapists started, but something like that could maybe work.
You have to decide wheter you join a contest or not, you reuinite again with your best friend, you help your crush when she's being bullied, etc. Life Is Strange was kinda like that at the begining. One playes videogames to get out of this normal life and become some monster hunter or a time traveler or a ten years old super-hero in a zombie apocalypse. Yeah, but the thing with Slice Of Life stories is that your own life is already a Slice of Life story.
