games teach you UX
summary
Claim: games teach UX by demonstrating concrete patterns and tradeoffs — examples include a minimal HUD that hides ammo until combat, a map built as a selectable 3D area, and contextual cues like damage splatter feedback and motion blur for nitro. Developers use art research (Far Cry 4’s Nepal fieldwork), animation and audio to guide attention, and iterative polishing of affordances. The takeaway is usable, testable techniques — what was built (maps, HUDs, effects) and how they change player behavior and comprehension.
