I love vaporware, lets talk about games that are vaporware.

Her story is pretty vaporwave
I would but there's nothing to talk about

It's not time to start worrying about NMS being vaporware until they announce that it's not going to make the June release date
Routine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaZqV0o7EW4
They posted a dev update this month though, so it's not (???) dead?
I WANT IT, IT LOOKS SO GOOD
>>322540012
What is this, a horror game?
>>322539312
I don't think you know what vaporware is
>>322540563
Yeah, a horror game that's been in development for fucking ever
The dev team rarely posts updates, but when they do, they claim that they're not dead and that they're working at a good pace
I probably would have given up hope a while ago but they said that they're not going to do Early Access bullshit, the reason it's in development so long is that they want to polish it as much as possible for release

Nah
>>322538710
That's not vapourwave at all.
WORLDS is still the most vapourwave game of all time. everything about it is vapourwave.

I can't believe the hype behind such a shallow game. People will get bored of this in less than a week

crazy i know
>>322549080
yeah, for about a week, at which point you'll feel like you've seen everything
>>322548816
One of Elite Dangerous' biggest criticisms is that there is nothing to do and that the Galaxy is quantity > quality, that and the grind is piss boring. No Man's Sky has even less to do and even more of a grind, but for some reason people won't get bored of it because they've been convinced by non stop press about muh gorillion planets.
I'm sorry if I dislike shallow grindfests.

I don't even remember what this game was called but this screenshot alone made me want it
>>322550750
>he better be kidding
>>322550824
id have no interest in NMS if it had coop. other "gamers" are the worst
the last thing i want to do when exploring the universe is have to deal with other people
For neo-/v/.
Vaporware is software that's promised but never comes out like The Last Guardian.
Vaporwave is elevator music remixed.
>>322551751
>exploring the same planet with a different skin over and over

>>322551894
sure fine
>>322550824
Well considering I've spent around 50 hours in ED exploring I don't think it's that much of a problem. I've spent hours exploring in cube world which despite not being updated I think my money was well spent because of the fun and time I spent in that game. I don't think, knowing my track record with games that focus on exploration that I'll be bored within the week of this.
But then again, you are an anon who clearly has the superior tastes and superior intellect that I should not doubt you one bit. So thank you.
How come everyone who tries to start an indie game these days has
a) A fucked up livelihood with an overwhelming amount of "life stuff" and "obligations"
or
b) Ridiculously poor health/ on the verge of death
Is it because it's easier to bail out after taking tons of money from people?
>>322550824
E:D would be fine its procedural generation was actually good.
It's incredibly lacking and vastly inferior to Space Engine, a free game made by ONE russian guy.
>>322552028
Normal people have normal jobs, it's that simple
>>322552028
Many members of Yacht Club went poor making Shovel Knight
It all worked out in the end though
>>322549241
literally any game
>>322552028
the most interesting ideas come from people outside the industry, and breaking in alone is very difficult
>>322552028
making a game is a form of escape
>>322552276
Yeah but why do the people breaking in always have to be ones that have terminal turbo cancer or could fall dead anytime within the project development period?
>Extremely active devlog of your favorite WIP indie title suddenly falls silent
>Next post is by a friend/ family member of the death telling people they're dead
>Worse, they just disappear and never post again
The worst is shit like them being hit by a car or something that's blatantly fake. It's pretty obvious sometimes that the pressure got too large and they just left everything and dipped, but they needed a convenient lie.
>>322552254
Not really. Also with NMS there's both not much to do and little depth to what there is available.
>>322542438
same, friend
haven't listened to 65dos in forever but was delighted to discover that the magical track they used when revealing no man's sky was a 65dos track. really enjoying where their sound is right now.
>>322552583
Kinda feel like they missed what was so good about Half Life by making Half Life 2 take place in a fucking city instead of a research facility
>>322552028
Knowing a few indie devs, none of them want to bail on people, and a lot of them have ongoing clusterfucks in their lives that aren't their fault. Making games is a way for them to escape their shitty life. In this case, by indie I mean one or two unknown people trying to grind out a game, not companies that are swimming in kikestarter funding because they're connected to some hype nostalgia IP.
The problem with companies like Heart Machine and Chucklefuck is that they're led by an ideas guy with an ambitious 30,000 foot design with little in the way of specific mechanics, and they don't hire enough fucking programming talent, and they have no clue about how to even evaluate good programming talent. So they hire a bunch of artists, instead. They've never actually developed a game before, so they make rookie mistakes like crazy. All of them should first develop a big mod, like a Mount & Blade TC or an expansion-pack level mod for Skyrim.
Now, fuckers like Tim Schafer have no excuse at all and should die in a fire.
>>322540012
What is this horror game about?
Is it like SOMA where machines take over or something?
Also >2013
Christ, 2-3 years, must be still polishing and optimizing.
NEVER EVER

>>322556428
That game was really cool
>>322555854
Something something moonbase
something something something
They're trying to keep it quiet what it's actually about, all we know is horror game set on a moonbase.
There appear to be robot enemies in the trailer but maybe also animals?
>>322538710
any news on this comfy lookin game?
>ED, SC, and NMS are all shallow as fuck
>We didnt even get the golden age of space games
Fuck everything.
>>322556663
Cause Space travel is the hardest genre to do. It will take a while for it to be perfected.
Also Star Citizen is still barebones, we can't really cut corners.
>>322556663
>he doesn't realize how big space really is
A light year is fucking small compared to how big the galaxy is.
>>322556663
>We didnt even get the golden age of space games
The 90's and early 00's beg to differ
>>322557149
I dont see how that is relevant
>>322556932
>Cause Space travel is the hardest genre to do.
Not even close. The only issue space games have right now is a lack of depth and features. Something that only needs developers to actually DO rather than just fucking around expanding the breadth of the game without adding in depth.
>>322557436
It's been strongly hinted that nms was delayed till June so they could add some big new features. Let's wait and see what happens.
>>322557635
By big new features do you mean they're finally adding something to do?
>>322557727
Who knows?
>>322557635
We'll see I guess
Strafe
I remember seeing some footage of it at quakecon and then nothing
what happened to that walking dead game by overkill
did it just get announced and then canned?
>>322555854
1980s retro futuristic moonbase horror game. It seems to have robots as the enemies, and possibly even a water demon part like Amnesia.
That's pretty much all anybody knows.
>>322557727
Tbh, I just want to fuck around with my friends and explore the universe with them in this game.
But of course that will never happen considering constant anons will reply "IT'S NOT THAT KIND OF GAME, YOU WILL NEVER RUN INTO THEM, GO PLAY DESTINY."
>>322558195

>Yeah, a horror game
Stopped reading there.
>>322549975
This is the only game where chromatic aberration actually fits.
>>322553027
Man how did you play it early id really like to try it out
>>322552583
It's been so long, that I remember how unrealistically good this fake screenshot looked at the time. Years later, and this wouldn't even be the best looking game of 2015.
>>322558604
I'm aware, doesn't mean they shouldn't act like an ass about it. As much as the big universe is awesome, I'd like to be given the option to run into friends. They do provided "online features" and Sony themselves is funding it, they gotta add a function one way or another to make Sony go full jew.
>>322550824
but it looks so cool! how could you not want to run around in it forever?
>>322552583
I don't think it's ever going to come out. There's simply no way for them to deliver on the hype at this point.
>>322557361

It's not vaporware if it was never announced to begin with.
>Lily Bergamo
What saddens me the most is how most hentai games never get completed. They're either a one-shot demo or they get on patreon and get lazy.
>>322559937
Ok, update. Apparently the empty save for an old desk is unconfirmed hearsay. But still, that shit was a scam from day one.
>>322556428
@wol_lay posted an update to the game on twitter 17 hours ago.
that means he's going to finish it, r-right?
>>322551014
I would love to play a horror-space game where you pilot a ship and just see huge creatures/ships attacking you all the time

I know what you mean. In particular, a webcomic artist I won't name seems to be dropping fucking hammers on his wrist every two fucking weeks, for all he talking about "injuries" preventing him from working on his fucking comic.
>>322560784
we live in a world where we can nearly perfectly replicate reality in a video game but there are less than a dozen h-games worth a shit
