I see no such moral dilemma in enhancing my performance by mining gamers’ collective experience, for example. I fully endorse Googling “how the hell do I complete the Wrong Side of the Tracks mission on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas”. I’m also not above looking up the solutions to all the riddles in Assassin’s Creed Unity, because, seriously, who has time for that?

So this person effectively has no time for their hobby, but wants the reward that comes at the end of it

Is that game maker exclusive?

so, how long before epic bans 90% of china

its called instant gratification blackhawk

As far as I can tell, my coder and I will be using Unity.

While we can all agree that it’s probably immoral to cheat in the 100m Olympic final, what’s less obvious is whether it’s right to use an invincibility code in the multiplayer game Star Wars: Battlefront. Finding yourself in a weak team on Battlefront can be exasperating, but perhaps not enough to justify becoming the guy effortlessly massacring opponents before they get called down for their tea.

No, he's done a slew of general design and investigation stuff

@Scribblehatch its design, not specifically coding.

talking about level design, concept designs.

It's more about design as art than the mechinery of building a game

its entirely independent of game engine and code language.

That author reminds of ppl who minmax in rpgs

a few example titles:
"Anatomy of a Side Quest: Beyond the Beef"
"The Mechanics of Movement"
"Puzzle Solving... or Problem Solving?"

"What Makes a Good Combat System?"

And then drop it because its too easy for them

@Scribblehatch I have a request for a game, perhaps to be released on NG

specifically a "2 ways to play a game"

kind of game

average RPG, perhaps Act RPG

I always take Mark with a grain of salt because, as far as I can tell, he doesn't actually make games

where you essentially choose at the start which kind of way you want to play the game

1: the traditional way

It's mostly reflective opinion, so it;s best to make use of it with that in mind

2: the super awesome new and perfect way

1: you play traditionally, you go around completing quests, you kill monsters, get gold, trade said gold for new armors, go to next area with stronger monsters, etc

2: you are given a certain kind of armor, told to kill specifically a single kind of monster

you get no gold

or your gold is confiscated

you can't buy armor

because small businesses aren't allowed

@velvitonator there is no real proven ways things work. And people who make are not always the best to describe why they work. its like writing a book. You can always find tips from people in the industry, but at the end of the day, its still a shot in the dark. Either way, he is basically voice of the customer. worth considering

and certain areas are just not avaliable to you

you see other NPC "Players" going around complaining that they can't buy potions or new armor, and then get killed immediately

by the very soldiers of the towns

bacground characters feeling miserable

and shakingly saying that this way of playing the game is "perfect"

in fear

Republicans calling out a mob that formed against Nancy Pelosi... she got an taste of her own medicine. :\

But the big different from left wing mob and right wing mob... the right calls it out and tells them to knock it off.
