you need neither a good story nor good graphics to make the perfect game

'ado in the 'og
>>729649450change good graphics to good art direction and you have my triad of a perfect game
>>729649450I know this is nikacado but first thing I thought of when I saw it was Yaoyorozu fron MHA
>>729649450Le gameplay is all that really matters.Graphics have to not look like diarrhea, that's all. A bunch of sprites on a black background can be sufficient as long as it doesn't look like complete AIDS. Or quake-tier graphics for a 3D game. Better graphics are fine, but really they are not the game, they are a separate form of art tacked on top.Story is optional but should not waste my time or get in the way of muh gameplay.Note that visual novels are not games.>>729649706What he pulled off really is incredible.
>>729649706>I was just pretending to be retardedI don't understand, it's not like he outsmarted anyone.He got fat as shit, made some disgusting content. Like he might not be retarded clown but he still did those weird things
>>729649450David Cage in the asshole, right below the perfect game spot
>>729649450Art directionReplayability (This means a condensed or concentrated experience, with zero time wasted on tutorials, forced walking&talking, padding, etc.)Fun gameplayThat's it, really.Things like good world building, atmosphere, or immersion can help a lot, but I don't think they're needed. Same goes for a good story/characters/writing; it can help build an emotional resonance for the player towards that game but ot isn't needed at all.
>>729650575You left out the lart where he made millions of dollars
>>729650871fair point
Everyone is leaving out music
>story is 1/3 of the effort Reminder story is completely optional and if you want to read you should open a book and stop ruining games. Thanks!
>>729651008a good story and good characters will make your game far more memorable.
>>729651008You're onto something, and you made me realize what actually makes a good game. I realized what "good gameplay" actually is. I realized what "good graphics" actually is. I realized it's not "good story," but it's "good structure."Chess has good gameplay, good graphics and (mostly) good structure.
>>729651182Expedition 33 has ...some gameplay, good graphics and amazing structure. The story is good.Baldur's Gate 3 has excellent gameplay, good graphics and excellent structure. The story is just okay.Balatro has good gameplay, good graphics and excellent structure. What story?
DUN NUH

>>729649450In an ideal world:Gameplay comes first and foremost. If the game itself isn't fun and engaging, but it's story is then you're not "playing the game" for the sake of playing the game. You're basically performing work until your next little injection of endorphins which is arguably the exact thing most games are trying to offer: escapism. Good gameplay is usually a mixture of talent, trial-and-error, and experience with little outside influences affecting the gameplay itself.A good story is an amplification to the gameplay. It can make a game with shitty gameplay good, and a game with good gameplay great. It isn't so much the "heart and soul" of the game, but it is typically a solid litmus test of whether a dev team can pull off great tech skills on top of having an imagination that can enthrall even the most jaded of players.Graphics honestly do not fucking matter. That's just icing on the cake, and some would argue that too much of a good thing is a detriment. Undertale/Deltarune (and this is not exclusive, just examples that immediately come to mind) didn't get to where they are from graphics at all and look like fucking NES-era games, but have been met with success across every metric. Graphics do not fucking matter when you have good/great story on top of good/great gameplay.

>>729649706Absolutely incredible that he lost that much weight in such a short time, while hiding everything about it.Doesn't change the fact that he did irreparable damage to his body and acted like a fat fucking idiot retard for years and years and that's all everyone will ever know him as.
