Why People Love to Hate commensurate experience
The reality is that people are generally experiencing the same thing in a specific way. For example, if I say, “I’m thirsty,” you would think I had a thirst for beer, but I have a thirst for water. The same goes for the same statement, but if I ask you “Where is the nearest bar?” you would think I had a thirst for anything that has an actual name.
The same goes for many of us as well. We all have an experience that can easily be summed up in a single word, so we can compare notes and see what is the same and what is different. For example, If you asked, “Where is the nearest bar I can get a drink of water,” you would have had to specify what kind of water you wanted.
I see this all the time when I go on Reddit or other message boards. I ask people where is the nearest bar and they can’t even say that they are familiar with the question. I then want to go into more detail and I get the same response, “I don’t know.” There is no reason for them to know where the nearest bar is that you’re asking them to describe.
Just because you don’t know where the nearest bar is doesn’t mean they don’t know. I’ve been asked where is the nearest bar and I said I don’t know. I am also told by some people that I have to put it in writing for them to know where I am pointing. Why? Because I am pointing to the local bar. There is no reason for them to know the place, as they have no idea where the bar is.
In fact, if you look at a map of the location of the nearest bar, it’s probably not there. If you put a pin in the middle of the bar, it’s probably not there, and if you put a pin at the other end, it’s probably not there.
As it turns out, the bar is on the other side of the village, and there is no pin in the middle of the bar. So when people go to the bar, they dont have to worry about finding their way to it. If they had to find their way to the bar, they could just look up the location of the bar on a map, and walk there.
This is the thing that causes me the most trouble with this game. I think the developers should be very careful about showing us these locations. It would be cool if something like, “Ok, here is the location of the bar.” or “Here is the location of the pub.” is shown. But I think it should be a matter of how we’re shown the location on the map, and not of the location itself.
The only problem I had with this is that I was too impatient to wait for the bar to come up. In between taking out Visionaries, there’s a lot of time to explore the island, and I had to wait for the bar to show up. And I don’t want to sit on the beach while my friends explore the island.
I agree that the bar could be shown a little more clearly, but that doesn’t mean it should be too far away. It’s more about how the location was shown, and not about what the bar is.
There are quite a few locations in Deathloop that are only accessible to certain characters. For example, the entrance to the island is only available to certain characters, and the bar and the island itself are only accessible to certain characters. The bar is more of a distraction, and while it’s a place where people can sit and talk to each other, it doesn’t make sense to the rest of the party to wait for it to open.
