The paths were not that intuitive, the aiming was useless, and there wasn’t that much feeling of life in the game. Which is a shame, because had I been looking from their perspectives, I probably would have been much more involved! I’m pretty sure there was some other niggle that meant we put it down, it might just have been the more immediately compelling alternatives.

It makes me wonder about levels that are made to look good from a distance, and whether that kind of design might be better suited to mmos, where you can actually stand and watch other players doing this stuff, then when doing them yourself, replay that viewpoint you enjoyed before.
