Educational snippets in video games

#ideas #product

I’d love to see more educational snippets in video games that are integrated into the story.

Some examples:

In racing games when upgrading components of the car perhaps the differences could be shown and why one is better than the other. When adding body-work perhaps show aero visualizations and tooltips about different artefacts.

In RDR2-type games, accurate historical events could be integrated into the story. (I haven’t played RDR, they might already do this) Call of Duty 2 did this to an extent.

Some games do this way too much to the point where that defines them and that’s no good. But integrating some additional knowledge that might inspire someone, especially someone young, would be great. It doesn’t have to be overly detailed or complex, it just needs to be accessible.
