Hello everyone,
since I've met the term "Battle Royale", I'm puzzled over what it might actually mean.
Variations I've come up are :
- a king's battle
- battle between kings
- a kingly battle
- a kingly meal in form of a battle (in the sense of Gelee Royale)
Some of these attempts to translate this term are of coursew not quite serious - but used to show how I fail to understand what the term means.
So far I can only understand this : A "Battle Royale" is meant to be "the king of all battles", or, in other words, "the mother of all battles".
I still fail to see any kind of genre connected with this term.
The only game I know as being described with this game is in my eyes simply a sooter, nothing else.
People might perhaps call it an "immersive sim", but The SIMs are to me an immersive sim, too.
Maybe I'm too old now, and maybe I'm too conservative,
but I often wonder how and why younger people twist and change words into new forms of gaming terms.
