There's nothing stopping developers from making a better video game than Tears Of The Kingdom.
>>724777461I'm stopping them I've been holding a massive shit for months now
>>724777461the limitations of the switch hardware are.stop being tarded
I still think Tears of the Kingdom is the worse Zelda and switch game
>>724777536What's stopping them on a $5000 PC?Is it just too hard?
>>724777461No developer will ever make a game like TotK. It's simply beyond them.
>>724777461It's insane how beautiful life can be
>>724777816pic unrelated
>>724777461thats not hard totk sucked and ran like shit
>>724778976Where’s the better game then?
>>724778976Serves you right for playing on a shitty emulator.HDR 4K /60fps on Switch 2. Bliss.
>>724778976Name one (uno) game better than TotKI'll *checks notes* uh wait
>>724777461Did you know for one of their games Microsoft kept firing people and only had temporary workers or whatever working on it? Did you know that working for companies like Rockstar is so shit nobody wants to work there which is why all the star talent left? The reason why companies like Nintendo succeeded generation after generation and why they're now market leader is because it's actually a great place to work so generally people stay and they attract the best talent. So no, I seriously doubt any company will compete with Nintendo any time soon because making vidya is incredibly expensive and it requires the company to actually take care of their workers, West generally doesn't.
>>724779321Microsoft fires people after 18 months so they don’t have to pay them benefits.
>>724779321>>724779392Nintendo nurtures talent.
>>724779628Yeah and this gives you a pretty good idea why these massive AAA games are such a mess. Games like that can take more than 6 years to develop and most of these huge companies can’t retain their talent for that long or just fire them due to greed. I can only see Nintendo making AAA games that work at launch. Hell, even the current AAA games from other companies have problems at launch. It’s not the lack of talent, it purely incompetence from project managers and publishers.
>>724777461Correct,it wasn't the best game of the year it released in, so there is indeed nothing stopping devs from making a better game
>>724777461Why no one copied the formula? I just want an open world game with focus on exploration with a big fun world instead of a boring story
Uh sorry but Nintendo owns>flying>skydiving>firing a weapon while you skydive>copypasting cutscenes>empty underworlds l>building vehicles>moving objects with telepathyTotal Nintendo victory.
>>724777461Correct. And they have. Repeatedly. Both before and after slop of the kingdom released.
>>724777461and yet they don't, crazy
>>724777461What goes on in here?
>>724781996Maybe on planet worthless branded retard slave
>>724782267that's not even english
>>724782352You talk as though nintendo fans had a good grasp of english
>>724777461Open world is a crutch for bad management.>Why isn't your project finished, you're spending so much money on paying your employees>Open World>Ah OKThe reality is that management has its thumb up its ass and isn't actually coordinating anything towards a completed product, the vast majority of the content that ends up going into an open world game is hastily constructed, last minute filler, unrefined first drafts and whatever feature creep didn't get cut out.>>724777760>Baby's first Unity tutorial>>724779321They succeed (or at the very least fail differently) due to Japanese work culture and protections that prevent them from just firing people to look good on quarterly reports, which puts them a step above most western companies if their board isn't comprised of senile gambling addicts. >Making vidya is incredibly expensiveIt's actually cheaper than ever, most companies just routinely toss out at least 50% if not more of their labor on office politics. Tools are stronger than ever and free, knowledge is widely available alongside well documented best practices, fully functional engines with simplified workflows are publicly available and everything can be sold online without even the minor cost of optical media.>>724780285Because the formula is dragging out development and going unusually over budget with talented employees.None of that is worth copying or is outside of the reach of most companies.
>>724780162>It’s not the lack of talent, it purely incompetence from project managers and publishersA lot of times it's just plain greed, I bet this shit and nepotism is a rampant problem in Western companies in particularhttps://x.com/SandyofCthulhu/status/1982965186781954468>>724784000>It's actually cheaper than everlol
>>724784231>lolCompared to needing to buy software and hardware for tens of thousands of dollars to even get started, needing to figure out something like 3D game design from first principles, needing to design everything for specific hardware architecture that no one has experience with, needing to have connections to someone involved with supercomputers to get access to math equations that can make your game run at all, needing to code everything from scratch and needing to make extensive publishing deals for your game to see the light of day outside of your home country?Yeah probably.Sure, if they want to waste money on shit, then they can really waste money on shit, but making a game is super cheap comparatively.
>>724784000Open world is the future of video games
>>724779047Botw is better
>>724780285Because the game is a tech demo and without the zelda theme no one would give a shit
