Reflection on my gaming presentation

In our game design presentation I would have liked to go more in depth about how we were going to incorporate The television show but still keep our own elements in it. I wanted to explain that we did not want to make the video game exactly like the television show, as most video games based off television shows and movies are. In order to sell it and make it more appealing to consumers I believed that tying it to the show would ensure it turn a profit and introduce a whole new genre to the world of MMORPG.
I think one of our strong points was getting across that it was different than anyone else's idea because it was a zombie MMORPG game. There is not a mainstream MMORPG humans vs zombies game out so I think designing one was very beneficial to those who played WOW and other MMORPG games.
I think the mechanics of the game was the hardest for me to discuss because I am not very familiar with the video game world. Yeah there was one summer where I could beat any guy at UFC and Sol Calibur, unfortunately, that is about the extent of it. Also trying to explain to someone how to play an MMORPG is difficult because there is no guided perpection its more of a free for all you learn as you play the game. In my opinion, merely explaining how to play is harder than actually just picking up the controller and learning yourself.
