Are Immersive Sims action adventure or adventure games?

Going by one train of thought, I edited the action-adventure game references to adventure games because article gave the understanding that there is not much action. Clearly, many feel that Immersive Sims are simulation + adventure. Can someone get some proper sources please? Vinay84 (talk) 10:23, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am moving this to simulation as there seems to be no opposition to the move.

Gone Home as the screenshot example?

Seems weird that Gone Home of all games is chosen to represent immersive sims. Merko (talk) 11:21, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's not used as the top image, so its not meant to be the representative image. As most other games are copyrighted, there's almost no single good free representative we can use. --Masem (t) 12:29, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's ridiculous to mention a walking simulator here at all.--2804:D4B:79BD:8F00:D50B:EFC9:E3D6:4385 (talk) 09:03, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You freaksh*ts should add Cruelty Squad!

An impressively disgusting immersive sim that got widely acclaimed by players and online reviewers like that meatoid-pizza-topping Civvie11. Wake up, sheeple! This timeline here is under the influence of conflicting reality bubbles and there's nothing we can do about it! 88.116.0.18 (talk) 10:00, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bioshock is not an immersive sim

It's a first person shooter. It has almost nothing in common with immersive sims, other than being a successor to system shock 2A02:2378:1093:1A61:0:0:0:1 (talk) 07:01, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
