Aderyn's Cradle - Updates

The last two updates for Aderyn's Cradle explain what the three things are that sets Cradle apart from current open world RPGs and provide some examples of how this is accomplished.

Integration

Integration is the idea that everything in a game or in a world is related, and, ideally, fits together to create a single cohesive vision of the universe that you exist in. From gameplay to story, these elements should not just make sense together, but act to build upon each other.

Agency

In philosophy, “agency” is the capacity to make meaningful choices and act upon them independently.  Agency is enhanced by observing the results of one’s actions in the virtual world.

Immersion

Immersion is measured by the ability of a medium to captivate you. The most successful immersive virtual realities can even make you forget that other worlds exist beyond the one you’re present in. As you’re playing an immersive game, you’ll surely lose track of time -- because the world has its own way of marking time’s passage.

Thanks Eye.
