I'm getting real sick of yellow paint slop
Ok.
play older games then
>OBJECTIVE: Go up the ladder>TUTORIAL: Go forward then press A to go up the ladder>"Hmm, maybe I should go up that ladder..."
>>737572039So what is the solution to yellow?>get stuck in room>have to look up solution>50% it's incredibly simple and obvious and you just forgot or are stupid>50% it's utterly obscure bullshit that you couldn't possibly have known
>>737572353Optional BamHam visionIt's really not that hardFucking Final Fantasy 7 basically did it when you press select
Unc uncs literally had to use a magazine to progress through the games
reminder that all vtards suspiciously playing old games are HyV carriers and supporters
>>737572353This game literally has scanning option specifically for retards that highlights every interactible object
>>737572431So you've replaced yellow paint with yellow paint button? Get this man to Ubisoft right now.
>>737572353So what is the solution to yellow?Old graphics
>>737572353Just stop coddling retards, if someone plays the game and can't find his way out of a room that's on him.
>>737572626>interactable objects stick out like in a Hanna-Barbera cartoonSo paint, just not yellow.
>>737572039It's okay when its a game we've decided to like
>>737572353Just a little arrow on the HUD is good enough.
>>737572758>modern games>interactable objects don't stick out like in a Hanna-Barbera cartoonJust yellow.
So is Ella
>>737572039But how else are you supposed to figure out which way to go when going in a straight line? It's confusing.
>>737572905>hear helicopter blades thumping outside>*knocking on door*>hmm? Who's this?>it's Game Dev!>he barges into your room and stands in front of your TV>points exactly on the screen>GO HERE!>gee, thanks Game Dev!>he leavesSame thing really innit
>>737572353The answer is always lighting.
>>737572353add witcher sense / batman vision or whatever but don't force the player to use it.
>>737573865>clutter the screen up with glowing shit>follow these footprints through this busy city street that the killer walked through 12 hours ago to win!
>>737572039How did uncs know the vases had rupees?
>>737572758You are legitimately retarded if you don't realize the massive difference between the two.
>>737572353yellow paint toggle, obviously.
Wicked Seed dabs on mainstream trash.
>>737574759>highlighting something with an unnatural aesthetic that doesn't match the surroundings>slathering something in yolo paintWell maybe you can explain the difference to me
>>737572353smoke alarm starts beeping if you're in a room with loot/secrets you havent found yet
>>737575220Magically highlighted objects are implied to only appear as such to the player. They're not really part of the game world, they're part of the layer between the game and you, the player, just like a HUD. They don't break immersion, because they don't pretend to be part of the world. Yellow paint with nearby paint buckets tipped over implies an in-game painter who precedes you in all locations of the game to slather random objects in paint to help you, the protagonist.
>>737575220>slathering something in yellow paint that completely matches the surroundings and aesthetics, so it doesn't stand out and looks like a generic object with no lightingFTFY.
>>737575402Would only work for 87% of the players.
>>737575724>magic crates and barrels placed everywhere is better that magic flying painterMarginally so I'd say
>>737572353Why do we need a solution?Just let retards get lostWho the fuck cares? They already bought the game.
>>737575983Man, you must really hate video games
>>737575983The crates and barrels aren't magic, just the way they're easily visually distinguishable from other wooden surfaces. It's no different than a minimap, waypoints, or a health bar. It's part of the UI, not a diagetic element.
>>7375761914make is the worst yellow paint case ever. I feel like they did it alright in RE8(still awful) but holy shit they overdid it in 4
>>737572039>TFW even a game with a black and white color pallette has yellow paint
>>737576647what the fuck lmaothe absolute state of video games
>>737572353Are people like you even real?
>>737572039I can replace it with White paint if you'd prefer?
>>737576917You've never gotten stuck in a videogame before? Check it out everyone, the golden god has arrived, roll out the red carpet lads we've got a real special boy here with us tonight
the simple solution is to not make drooling retards your main audiencemini bamham pulses were the perfect inbetween but i guess they fell out of fashion because i guess the average retard immediately forgot what button to press to trigger it
>>737572039Meme complaint
>>737572353Unc take: design the game well so you don't need a fucking guide to find what you're meant to find
>>737572353Hire game-designers you lazy fuck. Not only are our overlords evil, but sheer greediness cannot explain the retardedness of blowing so much budget on pointless shit then cheaping out on the things that cost nothing like a competent game-designer or writer. TLOU2, fantastic game from a technical standpoint, rancid dogshit from a writing standpoint.Make environments clear, make the level design sensical and the objective clear, and if players still have issues, just use the subtlest lighting you can find that still does the job. But the yellow cum sprayed over obvious things is disgusting and made for literally illiterate 60IQ players, this is the vidya version of "we want Netflix shows to repeat the plot 4 times per episode and loudly say everything they do so people on their phones can enjoy the show".
>>737572039yellow paint should only be present on the easy difficulty
Name one game where the solution was impossible to find/the way to go was impossible to see, there isn't! gamers are just retarded
>>737578230
>>737572039>be me>walking around outside>see yellow paint on a step>mfw the city thinks I'm a retard and need paint to save me from tripping and hurting myself

>>737575983>Marginally so I'd saySo you agree. Now fuck off back to your yellow-paint games, retard
>>737579448No, I think shiny, glowing barrels are for drooling retards. In fact, I take back marginally since it's clearly the same flying genie that's placing them everywhere. Poo poo pee pee.
>>737572039I thought yellow paint was retarded until I actually encountered it, for the first time, in Stellar Blade. It's not a consequence of games being dumbed down, but of increased graphical fidelity and background detail. Without it you would still need some way of informing the player which of the 500 highly detailed window awnings in the game are actually grabbable and which are purely cosmetic.Never seen it in any other game (aside from wuthering waves putting it on breakable boxes) so maybe it's for retards in most cases. But I don't want to spend half the game jumping at ungrabbable ledges simply because 1% of them are grabbable and lead to either the correct path or an optional collectible.>>737573484>>737572592I generally agree with these opinions that there are definitely better ways for developers to do the same thing, though.
>>737572353just set the game on an industrial work site, they're required by law IRL to paint ladders yellow and give ledges hazard stripes so nobody will care that the video game set there has yellow ladders and hazard stripes on ledges.similarly, a yellow sticker on breakable crates full of supplies are also not immersion-breaking the way painting a yellow "x" on them is
>>737572039Play Crimson Desert then.
>>737577141getting stuck is one thing. looking up the solution is another.
>>737572353Resident evil 9
>>737575817underrated
>>737572272>press backwards>still moves forwards
that's not paint, that's her pee from holding it in so long as you jerk off to her ass from below
>>737578451>wounded knee>skyrim jokeWounded knee is a famous part of western history and a western location. The game is directly referencing that with Booker Dewitt.Wounded knee was also referenced in the video game "turtles in time"
>>737583616I know. But it's still a cute video. Here's another one from the channel.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueG1bYroNqk
cross that paint and keep walking goyim!
