Does instant transportation effect game immersion?

[Rhomagus]

You can't understand because you are neither me nor Rhomagus.

We are the only 2 who can.

This is actually why I respond the way that I do. It leaves no room for subjugation and it is there for everyone to objectively scrutinize. Your statement is false. This is not a personal conversation whispered in hushed tones behind a lock door, this is a debate on a forum.

Rhomagus

Not being funny but...

You do know this thread is about people debating the usage of teleporting decreasing immersion...

And not a debate about the inner workings of the human psyche during stressfully prolonged forum thread 'debating'

Don't you?

[Quanta]

Last I'm aware I didn't say anything demeaning or childlike other than fighting for a want in a video game. Some people would laugh at this statement.

Oh, we are. It's quite enjoyable, really.

You fight for a want?

That's what i've been doing wrong all these years

I've only ever wanted for a want

I would just like to point out Rhomagus you are the one stating immersion is subjective thus any discussion concerning it in your point of view would be subjective to the matter, so how can anyone on the opposing side objectively scrutinize you in your mind... everything you don't like you refer to in your quotes as "no i don't agree" or completely skip, and you chary pick what you want to thoroughly explain, Just like all of us (myself included as you so aptly pointed out earlier). No disrespect and no snarky attitude I'm just making an observation.

You're just solidifying my point and this has been discussed thoroughly already. I never cherry pick. That's the entire reason I post the way I do. When I don't agree, I always back that up with supporting evidence directly juxtaposed to the sentence I'm referring to.

Your post is disingenuous at best. No snarkiness detected though.

I have to go grocery shopping.

I like to take the bus.

I like to bring a book with me when I take the bus so I have something to do.

The bus drivers and passengers are okay with this.

I also do not hear hushed whispers on the bus of those unsavory folk who choose to drive in cars. Nor does it ruin my enjoyment of the bus ride, the company I'm with, or the book I'm reading.

On the contrary, I do hear that of people who ride the bus from people who drive cars.

I'm literally going on the bus now to go grocery shopping. I just wanted to include that metaphor as well. Be back in awhile.

ooooo are you sure you want to use such a absolute word such as never before i post evidence to the contrary?

and what does your analogy have to do with your view of subjective material which you state can be objectively scrutinized? if something is subjective and you state it can objectively be argued then are you not stating that the term itself could be objective? Thus making your hostile posts (elegantly put posts might i add) to the contrary just silly. Maybe again I'm just not understanding your posts because of the tone and your ambiguous word choices create.

and trust me my posts are sincere and I'm not pretending to know less then i do (disingenuous)...

P.S. you do i believe sincerely try to explain and discuss every point but attempting to claim you are something you are not (just short of a perfect debater with your word choice of "i never") is just what gets on my nerves. and this has happened more then once in our conversation, to be truly humble you don't need other people to humble you but rather you humble yourself.

We need milk.

And bring me back a Snickers bar.

I'll have a litre of energy drink, a packet of cigarettes, a bottle of vodka and a frozen pizza!
