shandification 

When a video game creator has sufficiently expanded his world, lore, and story lines so the player can create their own narrative. They can comfortably move from place to place, experiencing the world and lore without ever needing to actually follow the main narrative of the game.

If a game is not appropriately shandified while still offering you an open world to explore you can be left with questions that break your immersion. Questions such as: "what do they eat?", "where do they sleep?", "where do they poop?", etc.

If a game has sufficient shandification then there will be farms, bedrooms, toilets/outhouses, access to clean water, etc. The world and lore will be sufficiently expanded upon to allow you to continue your own narrative creation without breaking your immersion.

This word was created by MrBtongue on his youtube video about Shandification in Fallout.
Pokemon isn't shandified enough! They have no bathrooms at all, how do they pee and poop, it makes no sense?!

I like the shandification in Fallout 4's settlement building. Settlements having crops and access to fresh water just make sense. Now if only the whole game had sufficient shandification.

I'm working on shandifying the game I'm creating so that it has a full lore and a world that makes sense when the player explores it.

For me, shandification is an important thing to consider when deciding to buy a game.

Shandi's have very big guarded hearts. They take a minute to open up but if you are lucky enough to see them do it, you are a very lucky person. They are the best people you can meet. No matter what they are there for you. They are so funny and beautiful.. Being around a Shandi makes you want to be a better person.

They are amazing big sisters and if you don't have a Shandi as a big sister.. Prolly adopt one. They will never let anything happen to you and will always be there for you. You never know a love so strong as you do when you are love by a Shandi sister.

Do NOT make a Shandi mad.. The temper they have is like something not of this world! Godzilla runs!!! Short fuses and the bite is bigger than her bark!
Girl 1- Im gonna beat that girls ass!
Girl 2- Don't! Her sister is Shandi

Girl 1- She gets so mad!!
Girl 2- Well yeah! She's a Shandi.. Idiot...
