Should "hitch" be added?

[edit]

I sometimes hear gamer videos refer to brief frame drops, short stalls, and similar discontinuities as hitches. Also game developers I've worked with, including hitches in UI.

Must be made know that despite its size, this list is not comprehensive

[edit]

I propose that we mention that this list is not a comprehensive list of all gamer terms, and include the fact that game slang, much like slang or jargon in general, varies from game to game, and there are more specific slang terms that are used in some games that aren't used in any other game.

Description of a "Let's Play" as a "walkthrough"

[edit]

This is misleading. A Let's Play is usually intended primarily as entertainment, not as a kind of guide, per the definition of "walkthrough" given here: A description of the gameplay experience for a level or playthrough, intended to guide players who are unsure how to complete it. There is typically no intent to guide players at all, especially in the case of blind LPs. WP Ludicer (talk) 14:53, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
