A good reference?
David Perry on Game Design: A Brainstorming Toolbox by Carl Granberg has some good references to why people replay games (completion, achievements etc.), but I am unable to view page 694 on Google Books. Does someone have the book? It would probably be an excellent source for the reason why people play games. http://books.google.nl/books?id=3b0LAAAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false (p 694/695) Maplestrip (talk) 10:51, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Replay value in other media than games
Music and videos/films can have or lack replay value as well! --143.159.50.67 (talk) 17:35, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Replay value from game mechanic
Although this is only my opinion, i think you are missing replay value coming grom the mechanics of the game itself. E.g.: chess has basically infinite replayability but it does not come from any of the influencing factor that you mentioned in this page. E.g.2: Sports videogames (thinking about rocket league) also have replayability coming from the game mechanic itself rather than other factors.
 * The fact that this article doesn't mention at all that competitive games are inherently very replayable is indeed very odd. It is almost entirely focused on single-player games. Seeing as even the most basic competitions get replayed over and over again (rock-paper scissors, competitive running, etc), I guess applying the concept of "replay value" to such things hasn't even come to anyone's mind. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat ) 11:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
