Olivia_Allin's Archive

Olivia_Allin is a team writer, photographer, model, curator, graphic artist, researcher and comic relief for HomeStation Magazine; she lives in Texas with her boyfriend, and Home is more than just a game to her. Years ago she discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. On weekends, to let off steam, she participate in full-contact origami. She saw a Bigfoot once, made a sound you never want to hear twice, and was so proud of her Special Olympics gold medal that she had it bronzed. She is, in her own words, adorkable.

Let’s talk about the great social game of Home: people watching. Far more enjoyable, perhaps, than any commercial game Home offers.

And it raises an interesting question: much as we rail against the (sometimes appallingly) poor behavior in SCEA Home, do we secretly crave watching such spectacles? Is it, in fact, a perverse form of entertainment?
