Okay, I'm pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work.

Okay, so two weeks ago, I started talking about communications theory, which is something I had learned in my,

when I went to college at Boston University's College Communications. I went to communication school, and I learned something that I thought was very interesting

that is applied not just to how I think of media and how I think of writing, but also

how I think of game design.

It is definitely something I've applied across the board.

And I spent two weeks ago talking about the first aspect of it. So the idea behind

communications theory real quickly is it talks about how you make humans want to have the thing

you are offering them, meaning whether it's media or a story or a game, how you sort of plug in

and communicate directly with humans in a way that

makes them receptive. So the number one thing you need is to create a sense of comfort. That was

week one's topic. The number two thing you need to do is create a sense of surprise. That was

week two's topic. And the third thing you need is a sense of completion. That is today's topic.

So let me explain sense of completion.

So what if I came on today, I said two weeks ago, I talked about the first of three things.

And last week, I talked about the second of three things.

Today, I'm going to move on.

New topic.

People are like, what do you mean?

What do you mean?

You got to talk about the third part.

So humans, I talk about a lot of, a lot of this is based on sort of like how humans function.
