Saw this pop up, and it rings true for me at least. I like some numbers in my games, and not just the washed-out kind where they might as well just use a color instead.
And like he says, it’s fine in games like DOOM 2016. Doomguy needs no numbers, his numbers are “Shotgun” and “More”.
I can’t imagine being triggered by numbers in a video game.
Maybe they spent too much time with the Encyclopedia of Numbers?
THAT’S NUMBERWANG!!!
