Language as a Mechanic in Video Games

Описание: Does translation and language in video games like Tunic, Outer Wilds, and Stray make them better games? In this video essay, we’re doing a deep dive into the Language of Video Games, Gaming Languages, Conlangs, and Video Games like Heaven’s Vault that use language as a tool for connection with the player. Outer Wilds video essays are a dime a dozen, but the reason the Outer Wilds formula inspires so much video essay content is because the translation mechanic makes you feel like a mystery game detective way more than The Return of the Obra Dinn or Dark Souls does. The Mystery of translation elevates a lot of games like Stray and Tunic, giving them a unique aura of a mystery game. Video Essay Youtube loves a good mystery game! We also dive into Sifu and its unique gameplay language. Enjoy this very "video essay" video essay!
