I don't know, people are still harping on "innovation" when it basically means "add some minor superficial change to please the simple-minded."s69-5 said:"Immersion" is the most annoyingly meaningless buzzword in video games today.
It gets tossed around so goddam much by anyone trying to prove/disprove that a game is good/bad.
Though "Immersion" really is useless. It's just a shame that we had a couple decades of games that featured immersion before someone started flinging it around like a monkey with feces. Now, it just means FPP, because you can't possibly be engaged by gameplay unless it's first person. And probably brown and sluggish, too.
