Also, once you think about it, the last of us isn't even categorically a game.

The cut scenes are good, but the stealth bits are really exciting gameplay too. Genuinely scared my partner with the faces I pulled playing the left behind expansion.

https://youtu.be/e5jDspIC4hY?t=214 is the timestamp for that final definition of what I generally try to push as the definition of a game. Not sure I agree with it, but it's an interesting take and what I was mostly speaking to.

Ah interesting. I'm a big fan of the "what is a sport" pub chat, so this is fun too. "single player game" = oxymoron doesn't hit common understanding of what constitutes a game, but I don't think we have a word for the subset of games being singled out here.

Is there a level of capability for AI where you would consider them "agents" according to this schema? Obviously TLOU enemies don't qualify, and multiplayer is generally more fun. Aah so many questions. I'm going to have to find someone who will put up with 2hrs of debate on this if I stand them pints.
