>game is too hard because it requires to use e-mailsHow.
Can't you just go back and stay there if you want to discuss your gay faggot shit? Why bring it here?
>game hint system requires you to send a real-life emailThis is the most millenial thing I've read in my life
I like the part where the game dev refuses to disclose the analytics of the emails, such as where they were coming from. I would wager that certain types of people from certain regions of the world are having a harder time understanding technology, especially if they are retarded enough to believe they're talking with a real person.>Hello sexy mama I am redeeming my reply to you for courtship. Please send your acceptance and nudes promptly.
>>731021441How about manual? Digital manual?
>>731021162I was looking through my grandpa's stuff and found that he had a big pile of 3D-printed save icons. What's up with that?
>>731021279SEETHE, 4cuck subhuman
>>731021441>millenialBoomer games were doing that shit over a decade earlier, making entire ARG adventures where you needed to get emails from NPCs in order to figure out clues to puzzles.
>>731021162>having to email a fake Ai just to figure out how to get help with a gameThis is the most retarded idea I have ever heard.
>>731021162I feel like these sort of metamechanics are always going to be at risk of breaking over time. Like how does metalgears switching control ports thing work on PC? Also making people use their real email to get hints is gigadumb, but smart way to harvest data I guess. EA should steal the idea
>>731021279How many gacha threads do you want up anon? Is there no pleasing you?
>>731021162emails are now boomer technology, like some ancient stone mechanism now covered in moss and vines.
how many zoomers know how to write and send a letter? Have you ever sent a Christmas Card?
>>731021490Indians don't play games, certainly not pc or even consolethey play mostly android mobile games and despite being an audience nearly 2 billion strong, is a terrible audience for games because they are very stupid as you are already aware
>>731021162wow that sounds like a really cool gimmick for a game release in 2004
>>731021883EA doesn't need to steal the idea, they are already getting the emails from steam
You ever notice the OPs on here where everything is in the subject field?I sure have
>Game require you to share your personal information>Dev stop paying for the auto reply mail>Game is unplaybleso uh, why not making it ingame ?
>>731021162Absolute retarded game design to write emails in a game
>>731021162>soillennials thinking using some 3rd party system outside the game in ingenious Only thing left is you need to log into the devs discord to get the hints
>>731021279can't you just not enter threads you don't like? can't you just report threads you don't like instead of thinking people give a fuck about your opinion?can't you just stop sucking cocks for a minute and evaluate your life?can't you?
>Playing a game>Need to alt tab and send a mail to a chat box since the game is baddly designed
>>731022323Redditard bitch is mad butthurt after being called out. Cutest thing I've read in a while.Go back and stay there.
>>731021279fpbpI wish jannies would actually do their fucking job for once
>>731021162thats fucking retarded and I wouldnt write with my personal mail to some faggot devmake the system in-game or make a website with a chatbot if you cant put it into a game but this is the most retarded solution he could have chosenwhats next? write a fucking letter and get the solution in 5-7 business days per mail
>>731021162>peoplenot that many people thobut good job on the marketing, only took you 8 years to pass 10 playersthanks reddit!
>>731022584>write a fucking letter and get the solution in 5-7 business days per mailSounds kino
>>731021162How is this even possible? Basically every job that isn’t physical labor requires you to email people. I’m in sales and I constantly have to email clients
>>731021923They really, really aren’t. Are you guys like fucking cashiers or something? Have you ever worked a real job?
>>731022889>How is this even possible?it's not>>731021162>the reviews got lower and lowerah yes, as you can see on this graph
>>731022584>why not use the traditional gameplay instead of thinking outside the boxand you faggots wonder why we get "slop"
>>731022990you have to write emails at college and at work. only in school you don't have to email. you're talking to literal children
>>731022481>I'm so not mad I'm replying to every single reply to say how not mad I am about it allwho are you trying to convince here lmao
>>731021162What the actual fuck>some random nigger would know my emailWhat the ACTUAL FUCK
>>731023631I only replied to one. Ending your sentence with "lmao" shows how butthurt you are.You are cute but you might want to lurk moar before posting again.
>>731021162you know this is bullshit because zoomers don't play video games
>>731023662nobody cares about your embarrassing isuckdicks@gayfaggot.com account
>>731021162It's basically the same shit as guess a million things to the textbox in a point and click but now with even more unpredictability as you spam emails towards some server.
that feature should have been built into the game. it's bad design to make the player do something outside the game. MMOs and ARPGs are the worst at this due to their nature, but putting this in a single player puzzle game is just retarded
>>731022889zoomers cant even get hired to flip burgers, 30 year old pajeets stole those jobs too.
>>731021162>'gave the players a hint system'>the hint system is emailing the dev directly from your own email and hoping you get a response from an AI that helps youWhy didnt they put the hint system into the actually game? Or make their own online guide instead?Seems like a cute idea that they had poorly executed. And then blaming bad reviews on people not knowing how emails work- which is actually the devs fault for not having the AI ignore questions in the title. If you put the question in the title then there is no reason to read the body.
>>731028380It definitely is a cute idea that they thought of, but not a future-proof one in more than just "people got even worse at using basic online communication methods in a couple of years" manner. At least it's a free game so it's not like anyone is paying money and then getting really angery because they don't know how to properly make an email that the hint system would respond to.
>third party/ARGshitI'm not excusing children for not being smart enough to figure out email, even if it's useless to most people not destined for wagie life, but developers need to actually give themselves twenty lashes for putting game mechanics into internet-dependant outside program bullshit.
