I don't get it, what's the game about ?
You get clues, encrypted shit and other stuff - then you fire up your browser and get to work. Standard stuff is finding archives, decrypting, interacting with made-up websites.

F.e. one of the training missions required you to access a database to view some pics, find a cyphered web address and report back. Now I have a mission where I had to go through some invoices and contact a supplier (mail sent, waiting for confirmation).

Easy stuff now, but there will be bigger missions which will involve people in RL locations (there was already one before early access and the same people did a few for TSW).

Once immersed in an ARG, you could encounter a clue anywhere - an online post, a text from a fictional character, a building, or even an interaction with a stranger on the street. You will begin to see the world differently, sorting through the noise to find the patterns and determine the next step to uncovering the way forward. Your life becomes gamified.
The claims seem as interesting as they are exaggerated.
To understand the emotions and unique experiences offered by an ARG, you either need to talk with someone who lived through one, or experience it for yourself.
So bozia2012 , how gamified has your life become?

Not enough. I need rent, taxes and shit also tied to progress bars and achievements - otherwise I'm too lazy to pay in time.

I don't get how you can keep playing Blood 2. I tried again fairly recently and I just couldn't stand it.
