In the first gamelog entry, i decided to leave out the intro to the game where you find out your backstory. I left it out because I did not think it was important until i kept playing the game and i realized that there is a lot of questions that get asked of you that relate to your past, and you don't have to answer them, but if you choose to, then it could change the outcome of the story. As i played for a second game session, I kept thinking that the overall dilemma is how your words and decisions can affect an outcome of something. If you didn't say a certain thing or you chose not to do an event that would make someone mad at you, then the story would come out differently than if you decided to do what the game said you could do. From what i have found from these two game sessions is that it's very predictable. You can kind of assume what the characters are going to say next and the next objective seems pretty easy once the previous event happens. I think the biggest part of game session 2 was deciding whether or not to tell the cops that you saw the girls. If you said say nothing, then you probably would have been able to go on with the game and not have to deal with the rest of the side story line, but I said yes, say something, and i got sent down a route to find out what happened to the girls.

I started playing Firewatch as the game looked interesting after I saw the review. The game has amazing graphics and has got good game play from what i have played so far. From the gameplay, I can already tell that as the fire watchmen, you don't have to report everything if you don't want to. If you want your partner in the other watch tower, you can report everything that the initial firework launching hikers do, or you don't have to and you can save the stuff for later (as weird as that is). You can also choose dialog that you have to interact with, and i think that is cool because it allows you to create your own storyline based on what the other characters in the game say/do. I think the first dilemma i can see from the initial time i spent on the game looking around is if you are willing to divulge information and if you want to create a story where you ask questions and figure out what else there is to do in the forest, secluded by yourself.

For OPA #1, 3rd session, I thought that I would spice up the playing field in my game and add some mods. I thought the modding of the game might detract from the base game, so I kept it limited to only a few mods that I thought would be beneficial to my prison. The mod that I added put more guns in the game for the security officers to use, and I thought that it would be a good idea since I added more supermax prisoners to my prison, I would want them to be guarded and watched by shotguns at all the time. At this point in the game, I actually didn’t have a hard time making a moral decision as big as the one in the previous game log that I submitted. I thought that giving the guards more firepower and free reign to take out prisoners at will if they were behaving badly made sense. To me, I thought that the decision would make sense as I asked for a shakedown and then a riot ensued and some prisoners ended up getting shot and had to be taken to the infirmary. Even though I only got a few hours into this game, I would love to play more and see how much you could actually do when you sink more than 10+ hours into this game. The only problem that I think could be the issue is the idea of how boring it could get. After playing a few hours, I realized that it was monotonous because you would just build new buildings and get more prisoners and after a while that can get boring without nothing else going on.

My GameLog #2 for Prison Architect starts off very simple. I started up my world again hoping that I would be able to advance in my world and start building up more infrastructure so that I can have more prisoners (max security and supermax (death row) inmates) come to my prison. I started playing and then I got a call from the Warden who was above me. I did not know that I was the real warden, it came as a surprise when I got the call and I had to follow his orders or I would be fired. What he asked, morally challenged me. He asked me to create a death row/execution center so that I can accept prisoners who were on death row and were ready to put to death. At first, I was very conflicted because I wasn’t sure if this is something that I wanted to do. After internally debating with myself for a few minutes, I realized that it was something that had a time table and that I only had a few in game days to complete the ask or I would get axed. Eventually I built the death row center for the death row inmates and I got a few death row people in my prison. After a few days, the inmates got executed, and my daily log was telling me that I had more death row inmates coming in soon. Even though I had a moral dilemma with the opportunity, I loved the money that the death row inmates brought in, it really helped when advancing forward with my prison and the new buildings and cells that I wanted to build.
