I was thinking about games last night as I tend to often do, and a somewhat bizarre question came to my mind.
When you're playing a game with very segmented gameplay, what do you find is worse? A really awful area that comes after an amazing area, or a really awful area that comes before an amazing area?
I ask this because when Paper Mario Thousand Year Door came out, I gave up on the game after Chapter 2 which was absouletly awful. Supposedly chapter 3 is one of the best parts of the game, but the previous chapter was so bad I didn't play any further and missed out.
Yet when a really good area is followed by a really awful area, on repeated playthroughs it makes it pretty hard to motivate yourself to keep playing after you've already played the best part of the game.
That always happens to me with Disney movies, and Mulan in particular. I often feel like there's not much reason to keep watching after certain song segments that are the best part of the movie.
I was just kind of curious the see if anybody else has put any thought into this, and what their opinion is.
