Nothing’s worse than playing a game that takes forever. Monopoly comes to mind. In our house, it usually takes us three hours to complete a run. I’m not one for Words/Scramble With Friends for this reason. Games shouldn’t be played at your own pace and drawn out per days, weeks, or even months.
But you know what’s even worse? The people who sit there and draw out a picture on Draw Something for 5+ minutes. I’m being honest when I say this… I don’t want to see your art, I just want to guess the word/person/character/etc and move on. This isn’t a place to post your medium which only lasts for a minute, it’s JUST a game. When people start to get serious about making their art look “good”, it is no longer fun because the guesswork is taken out.
And I’m not talking about the people who put a little extra effort into their work, it’s about the people who exaggerate the detail, and add large amounts of unnecessary color. Sure, it’s a great exercise because it lets you improv drawing, but the goal here is to have FUN, nothing more and nothing less!
