In framing ‘interpretation’ as subject to such a game-like structure as a ‘difficulty level’, Ryukishi establishes hermeneutics as the ludological basis for his work. To consider When They Cry, and in turn Silent Hill f, as ‘games’ by a particular author is to contend with the significance of interpretation in them.

they wont let u talk your shit like this anymore. imagine the good it would do
For reasons known only to itself, Doubleday has published a non-book called Complex Man by Marie Farca. It’s very hard to read and is full of awful scientific bloopers: e.g. people no longer sleep (“Food, drugs, and purity of air compensate for this”), people whose legs have atrophied from birth onwards can learn to walk at age twenty-five, everybody uses motorized chairs hovering on “air jets” (imagine what a storm this would kick up indoors!), and there are “island” satellites of earth which have Earth- normal atmospheres and gravity. The author seems caught up in some very detailed, private, untransformed fantasy; you never get the details you need (e.g. something that will enable you to tell the characters apart during the first 100 pages), and you get vast amounts of dramatically irrelevant detail (mostly architectural, including diagrams). Almost nothing is drama- tized until the last fifth of the book. Ms. Farca might eventually turn into an s.f. writer, for she has lots of utterly uncontrolled imagination, but she is not any kind of writer now.

In the 1950s somebody defined urban renewal as “replacing Negroes with trees,” and I’m beginning to think that in the same way too many typical science fiction horror stories are not the universal dystopias they pretend to be, but rather the unhappy wails of privilege-coming-to-an-end. Take, for example, the usual Overpopulation Story, in which Americans have to live without private ranch houses, or the typical Pollution Story in which far too often the real gripe is that “we” must subsist on soybeans and vegetable starch (as if the vast majority of the human race since the Bronze Age hadn’t been doing just that) or the Violence Story which deplores the fact (as someone recently pointed out) that violence is becoming democratized. — Joanna Russ
