Even the fact that we are playing this game within an academic conference and your sort of behavioral expectations and outcomes are very different than in another context is also part of the design challenge and part of the challenge of understand in which the way in which games manifest.
The game creates that sort of obscure object of desire, which could be the goal of the game or the play associated with the goal.
Not merely thinking about games in terms of a cultural history or sort of psychology of media effects, which is what we saw yesterday, but really a critical discourse that is about design, about games that has designed and constructed object.

Wing Commander IV, and humanity is enjoying the benefits of an extended peace.

 Game X Interview - Just Adventure +
As for using it as a stepping-stone, if the exposure Game X receives leads to bigger and better things for any member of the team, then good on 'em is what I say.  I wouldn't be against anyone leaving the project if they got an offer that would further their own personal development.

I found it difficult to access the deleted scenes or special effects info that were included, since you have to switch the option on and then watch for the X to appear on the screen and click it during the epispode.
Unless you have done it before you don't know when the X will appear since they don't indicate what chapter it will be in.
