Journey Dev: "Games today are too stressful."

Jenova Chen, founder of thatgamecompany, spoke at the Gaming Insiders Summit in San Francisco yesterday about how emotions can affect gamers, and how he seeks to create “new emotions” to help people find a sense of peace.

I just recently played Journey and it's such a fantastic game. This is coming from a guy who loves military shooters and has over 100 hours on BF3.

The music is SO GOOD! The graphics are awesome as well, I just love the art style. Also, the other guy I was playing with had to leave mid way through the game and it crushed my heart lol! I felt so sad that he left me and I felt so alone in the desert. This game is an incredible experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

Lol. Someone needs a copy of ninja gaiden or ghosts and goblins.

Games have become FAR less stressful.

The horror of that game...

I like chill games, but there's definitely a place for more stessful and challenging experiences. My top two games of this generation, Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, aren't exactly relaxing but I loved Journey, Flower, and even Flow also

"A few years ago, a mobile game developer called Super Evil Megacorp had the brilliant idea of making a TMNT roguelike. After first releasing it on Apple Arcade, they wisely recognized the game’s potential on other platforms. TMNT: Splintered Fate has slowly but surely come to all major platforms, finally arriving on Xbox today. Not only is Splintered Fate a fine roguelike and co-op game, but it’s also one of the best TMNT games ever made," says Co-Optimus.
