people see a game with less than 10 reviews and assume it failed because it's badoftentimes, they are incorrectthe game failed because the developer severely overestimated the organic exposure their game would receive purely from existing on steamvalve has kept the requirement of external initial promotion as a subtle secret for indies, letting people shadow drop games in hopes that enough people will play it for it to blow up, but this never happensyou must generate at least $10,000 of gross revenue within a 14 day period, at any point during your games existence on steam, for valve to consider it a "real" game and begin promoting itwe see many games flop because the developer assumed they would enjoy fair discoverability, drop their game, receive low reviews, and then cement their game as a failure due to potential buyers assuming it's bad because of its low review countvery brutal cyclethe meta promo strat is to spam promotional content on youtube shorts, farm enough wishlists to estimate that 10k in 14 day revenue period, and then hope your game is actually good enough to continue gaining momentum on steam once it experiences real algorithmic promotion
>>730749361If you are making something for fun you don't care about it succeeding or not, it succeeding is just a nice bonus
If you want to make money in the current market just make retarded dogshit and shill it on tiktok. That's the current meta.
>>730749223there is no game
>its another fag who just wants to complain and dismiss all solutions to avoid accountability
>>730749453And that approach greatly limits what games you'll be willing to make. Maybe you'll make a vampire survivors clone with that, because that kind of game is quick and maybe fun to do.Not an RPG though (the real kind), because they take a very long time to make and have lots of not fun aspects to them.But it's not like you'd understand, you have never made a single thing in your life.
it just doesn't feel retro
>>730747996>ps2 is retro but the dreamcast and xbox aren't
>>730749101I think OP intentionally chose PS2 to argue about retro since that generation was just starting to implement technology that is still used today, like online multiplayer, USB ports, etcI would argue Dreamcast and Xbox are still retroIt really depends what criteria you use to define retro.
>>730749014This retard is clearly treating as a difference>>730747031>>730747194>A type of technology still being used today isn't criteria for a console not being retro or NO console would be retro because shit like microchips and capacitors are still used todayHence why I'm poking at him; that kind of reductionism is flat out stupid.
>>730749101It's actually dreamcast is retro but ps2 and xbox aren't. and that has been proven why every time.
Accordingly to retrofags, both games are retro and fit in the same retro category for some reason retarded reasn, but the 6th gen aren't
Is this a good video game.
no, it's all ai videos being posted
>>730749409Yeah
You boomers always claim gaming in general was better in the past, but why? Was it actually better or are you just a nostalgiafag?
>>730747578Less browns
it actually was. games weren't casual experiences, you actually got to think and play for yourself. modern gaming is cool because indie devs can emulate oldschool style games, but it used to be the rule and not exceptions
>>730748608Not the same.You weren't there, you don't know what we lost.
>>730749275I am old, I just lived in a third world country where the vast majority of people were too backwards to even work a computer and all the arcades were dingy machines at cinema theatres.All I lost was... having an incredibly limited selection of games for purchase (my dad worked for a games magazine so we actually got a ton of free PC games, I was one of the first people in my country to play on a Dreamcast and a PS2) and not much else?
>>730747846>>730747786>>730748019>actually, modern games are good too!>never mind the demakes and barely-changed sequels that are selling more than modern games...
30+ year old thread, what vidya have you played this past week? Give it a quick rate too
>>730718389>36>FFXIV - 7/10This savage tier is alright, but I'm running solo. So the bit of enjoyment I get from raiding is tainted by randos being stupid. Only cleared 2/4 fights, but I'm kinda ok with that.And it's reset day so time to do it all again. >Pathologic 3: Quarantine - 8/10Forgot I had this until I went to install Pathologic 3. Figured I'd check it out to see what the vision for Daniil's route was earlier in the development. Really liked it and can't wait to play as the madlad in the final game while picking every Latin dialogue option because I'm much smarter that everyone else in the this town.>>730719351I forgot that game existed until right now.>>730720082I need to knock out my dailies for MTG Arena too. It's a nice, quick way to play Magic but I hate how monetized it is.

>>730748172It's sad how games made on a console with a dinky little 3-thread processor made on an architecture that's been dead for like a decade now have better physics than games made for consoles with powerful 16-thread processors on vastly newer architectures.
>>730748714Its cool until you realize gta 4 has no persistence in its world. Push a cart down a hill it rolls into a ped. Cool. Walk a few meters away and turn back, the cart is back where it was.Cars also follow the same shit they did in the 3d universe games where they despawn and spawn just by moving the camera around.Also gta 4 is a shit game in general.
>>730749574>Its cool until you realize gta 4 has no persistence in its world.That also applies to most modern games, lest you forget about shit like Cyberpunk 2077 and its disappearing/constantly shifting cars.Ironically, the exception is mostly other Rockstar games.

Here is hoping Nintendo will tard wrangle Fromsoft to make Duskbloods amazing like Sony/Japan Studio used to do with Demon's Souls and Bloodborne
>>730748924having random side studio D make a fun smaller more focused experience for a particular niche has no effect on what the A and B teams are working on for their bigger releases. as a matter of fact they will actually help these bigger releases along because they can test mechanics they are experimenting with. you are being disingenuous
>>730749186Taking out a significant amount of people to work on multiple things for a small company is handicapping them big time.
>>730749323>small companySo you ignored the fact that they have massively expanded since ER for this very purpose
>>730749402Bandai owns them. They took most of the profits from ER. Fromsoft only expanded a little but the wages are still abysmal minimal wage tier.
>>730749542>Bandai owns themlmao no they do not retard. Bandai is a publisher. Just like Nintendo is a publisher for Duskbloods. As a matter of fact, Fromsoftware had it in their contract for Elden Ring that they have the rights to purchase the IP for themselves so they don't have another BB/ Demons Souls situation like they had with Sony where the publisher keeps the rights. And guess what? As soon as ER released, they bought the rights in completion off Bandai. Bandai owns nothing in Fromsoft

here we go with the hoyotard pity building debacle yet again
>>730737654>>that gacha system>oofI have really enjoyed watching people go utterly fucking rabid over the gacha system. It has a bunch of weird little side details, but it boils down very simply.>Do you have 120 pulls?>No?>Then don't pull for anyone, return to the mines>Yes?>Pick someone you want and do 10xs until you hit>If you hit early, congrats, you have a down payment towards saving up 120>Also you get a free 10x on next banner which will not be relevant to you, but it's FREE weapon banner pulls so why notSame idea with weapon banner. Have guarantee or fuck off."Building pity" is an excuse gamblers use to waste resources.Now whether or not the system is actually "oof" worthy depends on the pull economy.Beta tests indicate ~120 pulls (with monthly pass) per-patch, which is 1 character per-patch, in which case it is quite "oof."Comment too long.

You guys will throw a shitfit if a game costs more than $20 but nobody will bat an eye at this because Classic WoW players tend to be employed.
>>730748501yeah nobody ever complained about blizzard adding cash shop shit to classic
isn't the whole point of classic the journey to max level?
behead all blizzcucks
>level boost was universally reviled when they introduced it to Classic and literally killed TBC>they pull the EXACT SAME SHIT AGAIN for Anniversary
Does anyone else remember when they sent out surveys during WoD asking what people would pay for a character boost? I remember getting that and none of the options were low enough for me to want to pay for it.

>>730748947>no passive buffs to teammates in range of the glorious flag>no radius of democratic spirit when you plant it in the ground>no music-box playing the national anthemI do, in fact, need more.
boring AF game honestly
>>730748938extremely based super earth patriot
>>730739515Democratic Detonation is significantly better than any other warbond. It gives you the two best primaries in the game, a secondary that can close bug holes and fabricators, and it gives you an extremely useful grenade. It's not even close, it's absolutely the number one priority with super credits. With that warbond, you just way more versatility in your loadout options.
