ludonarrative dissonance
when there is a disconnect between story and gameplay in video games. an unnecessarily fancy sounding term mostly used by pseudo-intellectuals to whine about violence in bioshock: infinite. to them, the idea of so much violence in a game about a violent man in a violent/racist city is somehow a huge shocker.
disconnect between gameplay and story happens all the time. there are countless examples of games where characters soak up bullets during gameplay but die from a single bullet in cut scenes. yet somehow violence in bioshock: infinite is simultaneously the most frequently used and worst example of gameplay/story disconnect.
did you read that article on the reputable game journalism website about violence and ludonarrative dissonance in bioshock: infinite? you know, the same journalist website that gave the fundamentally broken ps3 version of skyrim a 10/10?
