Joe Shaw Posted July 4, 2000 Share Posted July 4, 2000 Supsension of Disbelief refers, of course, to the immersive quality of a book or movie in which you are able to suspend the disbelief you would normally feel. Suspension of Disinformation, OTOH, refers to that particular quality of CM in which you accept the disinformation it supplies DESPITE the fact that you know better! As an example, I'm in a battle now with Arien in which the program has informed me and shown me that my AC is fighting a TD. I KNOW that the program has lied to me before, Arien has TOLD me that I'm fighting a Sherman ... but I STILL have to force myself to remember that. A very clever move BTS, it goes beyond simple programming and works on the subconcious somehow. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
