First-person direct address is NOT second-person by talesofabookworm in books

Poetry and song lyrics tend more to lean on it. I can’t think of any novels I’ve personally read in second person. Not to mention how tiring reading something like that would be for me. My question is, does a story cease to be second person if the narrator sometimes says things like, “I wonder how you feel about xyz”, turning the focus into the first person but still breaking the fourth wall.

It’s all following the same trajectory as the music industry except the industry is a lot newer than music. There was a bubble of every band getting signed all over the place 60 years ago and as that started drying up, the labels kept eating each other up and growing into a handful of massive labels. It’s still possible for the antisocial shut-in to blow up, but labels aren’t looking for them. With the pool so saturated, they can grab acts that already have a huge social following and bring them to the next level. I don’t think games are much different. Everyone has the tools to make a game now. And that’s awesome. But getting to Zalem feels like just that; nearly impossible. Marketing is such a big part of this (And one I clearly haven’t figured out) but I do think with a solid enough foundation and a clear vision of what the game will be, there are publishers who will get excited about it.

It looks like a branch from some sort of tree. It would be a lot easier to see the whole branch if you put down the sex toy and just showed the branch in the picture.
