Moving items to storage from inventory adds to the game design focus too, allowing/encouraging you to focus more on exploration and less on encumbrance management. This means less fast travel, causing more discovery in the dense world design. Great symbiosis of "opinionated" broad design elements

Interesting game design lens, since learning and executing expressions of mechanics are such a big part of how feeling and meaning are conveyed over time in many games.
Thinking how to design for "driver"/player/actor to learn/experience/create meaning within a space is a reason I love games

Important point, as meaning is conveyed through unique mechanisms in games and can be observed, discussed, and debated, similar to discussing meaning conveyed through film (or other media). This discussion is often missing from games media leaning towards product review instead of critical analysis

If you're looking for game design and game structures, The Art of Game Design by Jesse Schnell is great. I also like his GDC talks

In lieu of Nioh 3, I loved Rise of the Ronin and just started digging into Wo Long. both from Team Ninja and both are incredible and worth checking out if you haven't

Yeah sure, my genre callout had Dorian Concept, Vegyn, and Domenique Dumont, all of which were random matches based on a playlist that contained a bunch of game music and others (Chris Christodoulou from Risk of Rain 2, Peter Gundry, Jonathan Geer, bunch of Japanese City Pop)

Even further, the player's drive to "find the leak" and exploit anything in the game is itself an art and a unique consideration of game design over other mediums. Every game becomes a "place" where the drama of a Summoning Salt video can take place #gamedesign #gamedev
