Game Analysis: Robbin Hood

Improved Essays
For me, it was a typical summer evening. I never expected anything to come of it. I had planned to finish up one of my games today. The game focused around a terrorist group where you told to go and eliminate the government threat. It was your typical Action movie plot. A Few time consuming hours later and the main protagonist has successfully confronted the villain. With the villain apprehended and the threat gone the game looks like it’s about to wrap up then. BAM. The game drops a bomb on you. It reveals a twist that turns everything you know about the plot on its head. Then For the next twenty minutes the game drowns you in philosophy and becomes very Meta in narrative. Several thought provoking minutes later the game ended. I sat back …show more content…
It made me realized that events are never just black or white. Before this event all my opinions were always one sided. A case that about everyone can relate to is having a one-sided opinion on a robber stealing someone’s valuables. Any person would think that the robber is a bad person. But What if the thief was someone such as Robbin Hood? In one case he is a good person for giving to the poor, at the same time though, he is a criminal for taking stuff from other people. For that reason the opinion of the thief is neither completely bad nor good. As a result of two different opinions of the predicament the answer can neither be the one or the …show more content…
I never become mad anymore for people doing something that I don’t like. I always find myself thinking “He/she does not know any better.” Or “He/she is doing what they think is ok.” As a result of these thoughts it always cools my emotions. The event also has changed to become more open about people’s thoughts, opinions, and ideas. Even if the opinion is the opposite from mine, I still take the take the time to listen and compare it to my own. Lastly, the biggest way the experience shaped me is that now, I always consider all facts and opinions before making a decision or forming an opinion. If I’m reading up on a big current event I try to look at all the related sources I can to get the big picture. Furthermore I would try to figure out what stats are true and what facts are biases and, I would also look at opinion on both sides of the argument before coming to a decision or

The Federation practices methods similar to the ideas manifested in Dr. Istvan Balyi’s research which finds that long term benefits reap from later exposure to competition in youth…

Not only did they act on their feelings, they also acted on logic.…

    Due to the system of formal education that I’ve been exposed to, I knew little about the current whereabouts of Native Americans. Other than is history class Native Americans aren’t really talked about. I had no idea how many Native Americans lived in America, or that they were still facing such great injustice to this day. In the article I saw a picture of a man wearing a shirt that said “Native American Lives Matter”. When I saw that, the lightbulb sort of went on for me.…

    Moss learns that it’s ok for him to be different and that he deserves equal treatment, – again not from looking inside himself, but from a white man telling him so – and while that is a very important lesson for the audience to learn, it ignores the racist system surrounding Moss that has created many of his problems. The film’s ending gives the appearance that the problem has been solved and that Moss can no longer be hurt by prejudice. In a way this makes the trauma that black people go through because of racism personal rather than political, and therefore the film can assist the argument that there is no need for systemic…

    The Story of Pedro Serrano, as told by el Inca, Garcilaso de la Vega, had a deep impact on me. More specifically, the part that was most was the first interaction between Serrano, the main character, and the other unnamed survivor that was introduced halfway through the short story. Serrano had been stranded on the island for three years and had acquired hair all over—so much so, that it was compared by de la Vega to “an animal’s pelt.” The new survivor on the island was still dressed as a normal Spanish sailor, whereas Serrano had seemed to morph into a different person all together—one who was as mentally unstable as he was physically. When these two very different characters met for the first time, they were both shocked.…
