this thread is obviously a joke so whatever My intent was to be light-hearted but I'm not entirely joking. I appreciate everyone's responses so far and laughed at the idea of calling BW a "monsters game." I might have to start using that. The diversity of opinions in this thread is a good reflection of my own conflicted thinking. Selfishly, I hope all of you train your kids to play BW because it will mean this game will always have an active player base whenever I might choose to pick it up throughout the remaining half century or so of my life. Plus, I think it would be really cool to watch an FPVOD of a 7 year old prodigy with flawless muta micro or a 4 year old who can do a perfect worker split. Personally, I can see both sides of the debate about introducing my own children to BW. (They're too young now for this to be a real decision for me yet.) On the one hand, it's completely natural for parents to share their interests with their kids. It's one of the best ways to bond. And BW definitely encourages critical thinking skills. On the other hand, as a kid most of the fun of BW was getting to play it with my peers. Kids today will struggle to experience it that way unless we succeed in forming the BW Little League I proposed. And I also see value in encouraging activities entirely outside of gaming like music, exercise, etc. Though it seems to me that there should be room to encourage a variety of different activities simultaneously, with each pursued in moderation. | ||
