mobile games do this a lot
when they give you a daily limit to play
and they are often not fun
with the daily limit, people can't get their "hit" as much as they want
and they keep wanting that hit more the next day
they can't play themselves into exhaustion
My ordeal is that I honestly like high-end graphics and big worlds
Discovery. Game as uncharted territory. 😉
big worlds
Hence, my mission is to make that stuff cheaper
@velvitonator i'm in a similar boat. although less graphics. which is why i like ubisoft games, despite me fully admitting their games are very very very similar these days,
the only way to make stuff cheaper is really to support smaller studios where you can
I think part of it is that we're right on the edge of the uncanny valley
let the bloat kill itself
Like, if you took your high-end renderer and animations systems and stuff
And used it to do less
Things would actually look worse than if you had a shittier renderer or animation system
I think smaller studios usually don't get it either, though
They either want to make Uncharted or whatever their favorite NES game was
Most of the small handful of small studios I _do_ know that are trying something else tend to be full of expat veterans from some large studio
i go out of my way to search for small, unknown studios with a decent game.
Well Helleau Grenade 😛
Factorio is a great game, with good gameplay, that didn't focus on graphics
I _am_ a big fan of Dark Souls
It's never clear what exactly they spend money on
Dark Souls sucks ass 😛
ah, so you are a masochist
More DkS for me!
"let me roll around, record the boss's steps, and find that one built in flaw in his rotation" - The game
isn't that like old games like mega man?
Dirty secret: that's every enemy in video games
thats where you're wrong kiddo
😛
i dont have time for dark souls lol
naw but Dark souls really has that level of "at second 17 until second 20 of the boss's 30 second rotation is the only point where you can attack without getting hit"
sounds like you haven't played dark souls
bosses are not that scripted
and any other move kills you instantly
I have, and they really are 😛
i'm hyperbolic ofc, but its the gist of it
that is grossly hyperbolic
