interview with Church paster about game karma systems

Introduction:

The pastor has asked not to have his name revealed in the post. So for the purposes of the blog ill be calling him Pastor Bob. Pastor Bob is one of many pastors at the church in the neighborhood. Most of his time is spent in his office goign about his work. He has played a few games here and there but never anything serious. The Questions asked were:

  • Do you think current game karma systems work?
  • Why do you feel this way about the system?
  • What would you do to change it?
Do you think current game karma systems work?

Pastor Bob thought about the games he played trying to rember anything he could about the games karma system. he answered by saying "well seeing as I can not recall one to mind I would have to say that it doesnt work." Pastor Bob also felt he didnt rember it cuase it had no spiritual impact on him.

Why do you feel this way about the system?

Pastor bob didnt take to long in answering. he started with how he thought it was barely noticable in the game. He said if it worked it would have had a impact on him in the game which he felt there was non. He continued on a tangent before saying that it boiled down to that everyaspect didnt work well together.

What would you do to change it?

Pastor Bob thought a few minutes then said "well quiet honestly i dont know if i could do much of anything about it." he was asked to think about what his idea of a karma system was to get some thoughts of improvements in his head. he then said "well when u put it like that put the meter somewhere where the player can see how they re progressing with out being constantly reminded where there karma was." He then went on about making some sort of quests that impacted karma or make the quest clear that it will affect karma upon completion. He ended with wanting a clear line between good and bad.
