What are your green flags in vidya?

>anime artstyle

>>740969836
the game allows you to fail and get lost. i fucking hate games where the developer feels the need to explicitly draw attention to some thing they think the player needs to know. it's like the modern game developer feels that their primary audience is DSP.

Yes anon, it's called "appealing to the lowest common denominator"
I actually know people who are WORSE than DSP, at least DSP won some SF2 tournaments back in the day(somehow)

i don't mind the existence of games that appeal to clueless retards, but the philosophy has crept into the average game rather than just that niche. it's difficult to find games that don't do this, which is why when i see it i consider it a green flag. it's a canary that the game developer actually makes positive assumptions of the player's intelligence and i'll be allowed to play the game myself rather than told how i must play it.

It's much more engaging and counters the tendency of defensive gameplay (playing like a pussy) being the meta.
