If there&rsquo;s another thing I know about human beings, it&rsquo;s that we love blowing stuff up.<\/p>\n<p>Most of us never really get to live the dream, of course, and have to make do with vicarious big bang ba-da-booms through experiential facilitators like video games.

Let your inner wannabe demolitions expert be unconfined!<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In Guerrilla there was a kind of moral issue. When you were destroying buildings, you thought, &lsquo;Should I really be doing this?&rsquo; But in Armageddon we&#8217;ve completely thrown that out and we&#8217;re basically motivating players to destroy everything in sight,&rdquo; production lead Dan Sutton tells <a href=\"http:\/\/www.computerandvideogames.com\/294536\/interviews\/red-faction-armageddon-were-motivating-players-to-destroy-everything-in-sight\/\" target=\"_blank\">CVG<\/a>. &ldquo;This works especially well now that we have the repair tool. Not only can you tear everything down, you can also build it back up. <\/p>\n<p>If you see a destroyed bridge, you can rebuild it and maybe reach a secret area. And if you get trapped, you can always repair the path that you destroyed.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>But can you destroy it again after rebuilding it? Again and again and oh, it feels so good and it makes the voices stop?<br \/>Red Faction: Armageddon is scheduled to destroy everything on 31 May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s every wannabe demolitions expert\u2019s dream come true<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10917","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10917","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10917"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10917\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10917"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10917"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10917"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
