    Infinite scrolling is a very simple example

    Have to strongly disagree. Having to constantly reload entire pages of content is incredibly annoying. The only reason it makes people want to quit is because it’s annoying.

        I didn’t say or imply that it was invalid.

        The fact that you chose that specific example, one that I think is plainly wrong, just goes to show that the discussion is not as simple as you or other people make it out to be, and that any regulation around this will most certainly ensure that future games are shittier.

          I dont like you stating things as if they were an objective truth. It is your opinion that infinite scrolling is “good” or whatever you wanted to say. But it is a retention method and not just a QoL feature. There are articles explaining this and some websites have expressly disabled it because it leads to problems for people who are vulnerable.

            You’re the only one doing that.

            But it is a retention method and not just a QoL feature

            So you agree that it’s both?

              You can see from the downvotes that you‘re being trolly but not fun.

              I guess we just agree to disagree and go our seperate ways now.

              Have a good one.

        Raskin claims his intention was to create the most seamless experience possible for users

        And it worked 🤷

        You’re making my point for me.
