On Fair Tales

Lately I have been watching disney movies. Everyone knows disney and knows that they market to everyone and anyone. It's like they sell happily ever after. At least the concept of it anyway. I grew up with disney, but I branched out to fairy tale stories. Written stories by authors such as the Brothers Grimm or Hans Christian Anderson. These things fuel my imagination, and still to this day they affect the kind of games I am into. I do some video gaming, but I am not really a fan of first person shooters. Though give me a good story and I could get into it.
The most recent video game I purchased was Bioshock Infinite. Its short, and I don't play first-person's very well, but the story keeps my interest and allows my imagination to roam. To follow the steps of the hero and unveil the mystery of the whole game. To get to the bottom of things. I always love a good story, a fantasy in which I can fuel my imagination with. Those sorts of stories I continue to have dreams about. It is nice to know that even without the disney fairy tale influence that we all have, we can still dream up good stories, and still have the illusion of a fairy tale ending.
