In the past two decades or so, technology has become a standard part of our lives. We no longer have to worry about how to get someplace or what to do. Rather, we get everything done at the same time.
We didn’t have to wait for the internet to get connected and have a computer in our house. We didn’t have to worry about driving to another town to pick up a movie or going out with friends for drinks; instead we could get a lot done in a matter of minutes online. We didn’t have to worry about getting money for food, fuel, or rent at the end of the month.
One reason to not have to rely on our phones to make things happen is because we have no access to our devices. If we have no access to our phones, then we have no way of actually connecting to them.
Technology has changed how we live in so many ways. We no longer need to get up in the morning and spend a lot of time commuting to work. We no longer need to rely on cash to pay for the things we need to get done. Technology is allowing us (and other people) to “live our lives a little more mindfully.
In the past, technology would have been the only one able to connect us to our daily life. It might even have been the only one able to make our life meaningful. Today, we have many tools that help connect us to other people, and they can even be used to connect people with things. For example, we can use chat programs to make the world a little more fun. Or we can use voice recognition software to make finding someone a little more fun.
The most interesting application of technology for living and recreation is for the “organized” part. The way to a lot of outdoor activities is to leave your life a little more orderly, and that becomes more evident when you get to a place like Deathloop. You can use the chat systems to keep your conversations with other people in order and to keep your interactions with them organized as well.
You know I’m just kidding there. There is no “organized” part of the Deathloop experience. If you want to interact and find people, you will have to do it from the comfort of your couch.
The game is all about making your own entertainment, and Deathloop is a virtual world built around that principle. It takes an old school style of gaming that has always been hard to perfect and turns it into a place where you can connect with people who are a little more relaxed than the rest of us. It’s like the people you meet in real life, they aren’t a bunch of morons, they’re actually quite nice.
The game is still in the news, but the world is pretty cool, and its not that we haven’t had that much time to make it into the news.
I’d like to see the games again later this week. You should see one of the first new games released this week.
