i miss those days

rant but i literally miss when game theory had the most RANDOM theories that would cause so much controversy but end up right. nowadays its just theories that have been online for weeks, or just compilations of old theories. i still watch matpat’s old theories relegiously and find so much comfort in his and steph’s lives. i feel like the only host that carried the legacy that the theorist channels were, is ash. no hate to the new hosts obviously, i love them but it genuinely doesnt hit the same anymore or feel authentic to them.

Remember when Game Theory covered more than 3 games?

I feel like we can't go a month without one of these three games getting a video and the theories are just getting sad at this point. How many times can they retread the Bite of 87 or who the Protagonist of Poppy's Playtime is? Remember when they use to cover indie games with new stories to tell or teach science through gaming? No time for that anymore, we need another compilation video of old theories because why bother writing new ones when they can just keep reuploading the ones they know people like.

how a theory changed how i see undertale

I just rewatched a Game Theory video about Undertale, the one about how your choices might be less free than you think. It completely changed how I see the game, what felt like small actions suddenly felt way more impactful, and the ending choices hit harder.

Has a theory ever made you replay a game or see it completely differently?

Looking for advice on how to make research engaging/fun

So I want to try my hand at putting together a Game theorist style theory. Not sure what about yet and that's part of the issue.

I have great difficulty staying focused long enough for dedicated research to make any significant headway and need advice on how to make it more engaging/fun. Closest advice I've found was for writing urban fantasy fiction where you pretend you're doing research for Sam and Dean Winchester and keep your notes in an email format you would send them. I seem to remember that article had other tips as well but I can't find it.
