Mike Doyle has a great post about whether “unoriginal mechanics” are a good or bad thing. First the New World is discovered, then it’s explored, then new discoveries are made. Might we be reaching a point where games can develop what we have, rather than create more newness? Perhaps, and I agree that that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
