What are your thoughts on the attempt to make a 4D game?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZp0ETdD37E
I personally like how he didn't take the cop out 4th dimension is time, and an indie dev that actaully understands something about designing games.
Looks neat.
I'll never understand 4D though.
>>330854862
Except he clearly states time is a dimension.
>>330854862
This is literally 100% just a 3D game.
Nice Bundle, Steam!

So /v/, when it comes to multiplayer maps how symmetrical do you like your maps to be? Do you have a preference for symmetry vs asymmetry?
http://strawpoll.me/7086898
Depends on the game. CS is built to be asymmetrical and that's the core focus of its design. chess is great because of its symmetry. One is not inherently better.
>>330854717
IIRC, all of the Gears of War maps were built to be mirrored, I think because of the cover system and whatnot. From what I've seen, most maps built around an objective that both teams follow the same rules for (CTF, KotH) are either mirrored or flipped along an axis, whereas maps built for death-match or an objective that has each team following different rules (plant the bomb/defend the bomb site, payload, invasion) go for asymmetry.
asymmetry is the best 95% of the time, it's just hardest to balance.

Anyone here remember this game? One of my favorite games of all time. Great action/horror mix. Also had some great characters.
Dr. Killjoy anyone?
"When performing a lethal injection, it is essential that the needles be placed with absolute precision. And unlike standard medical procedures, with a lethal injection you have a patient who probably does not want the procedure to occur. Therefore, it is of vital importance that the restraints be tight and strong. Even with that, trouble may arise, and it may be incumbent upon the practitioner to take matters into his own hands, using whatever sharp, bladed objects he may have on his person. Lacerations to the body at strategic locations may put the patient into a state of shock, making him far more pliable, or at the very least, causing him to bleed to death, thus achieving the desired end. And, who are we kidding? We're not really trying to be humane anyway. Class dismissed."

I remeber playing that game on xbox. It funny because I get the shit scarred out of me by newer games like the evil within, but when I was younger I never flinched when I played that game.
I dont remeber a lot from that game, but I do remeber a part where you are running around around the grounds of the prison, and there is a giant flaming crater leading into the game with those creatures with blades for limbs popping out of it. I remember really enjoying it.
Never played the sequel though.
>>330852939
Damn right man, actually played through it not long ago.
It was one of my very first horror games, and I believe it's the reason horror is my favorite game genre.
Really sucks that it seems more or less forgotten these days.
>>330854446
Ahh yeah I remember that. I didn't get scared by the game much either. It certainly felt like a scary game. The atmosphere was perfect. The lore of the island was set up nicely, the character's interactions with you and the world was done well. It has all the right ingredients to be a terrifying game, but it didn't scare me. I think it's because you feel like such a badass playing Torque. He also doesn't speak so it's one of those games where you can insert yourself into the character. You're not really worried about your character dying because obviously nothing is going to happen to you the player.
>>330855191
I never have met anyone else who has played it besides my brother until I made this thread and you both replied. I've played it at least 10 times. throughout the years. I always get totally immersed in it when I do and I finish it in a few days.
Did they fix the driver update issue? Last I heard, it was giving users the blue screen and making them reinstall Windows.
Yeah, they pulled it. New one is fine.
>>330852938
nah, but i hear if buy their latest card, there's no more driver issues.... at least until they come up with a more expensive card.
>>330853007
>>330854173
Stop shilling , op the driver fix is just another
>bluescreen
So don't download the latest
I REPEAT, DO Not download it

Every day I talk about video games and I find myself talking less and less about those video games. Rather, I like reading about the people who play them and the people who review them. I am attracted to the news about people starting a fundraising campaign for a new video game journalism site or people with opinions talking about that news on a podcast. I enjoy this much more than playing video games and so do a lot of people.
The truth is, video game developers are worthless in today’s gaming industry. They don’t have podcasts or video game sites or YouTube channels, they just make video games. So I pose this question, do we even need video game developers?
If all video game developers were to die today, that would just be fine because we already have all the entertainment we could ever want. Gaming podcasts and opinion pieces by video game journalists can still thrive in a world without new video games. Streamers and YouTube gamers already have an endless supply of video games to play and all the people who watch them certainly won’t care if new video games aren’t released as long as those people are still entertaining them.
Video game media is extremely visible and extremely lucrative in today’s market. If you go onto any message board, you’ll see people argue about what their favorite reviewer mentioned or what some person said about how the video game industry is destroying society.
"Just about anything related to video games makes quick easy cash, except developing them."
>>330852834
I happen to work in the industry.
What. People would complain that there's no new material in less than a year.
The only games that would continue to get played are games that are built for it and even then without developers to patch it.
Cheaters would rise up and break the game, Still i'm sure there's always mario sunshine to keep your company.
>>330852834
I just... I just don't know if you're serious...
Like I don't even know how to respond.
Which is your favorite Mario Kart, and why?
>>330852526
Double Dash was amazing for me.
Me and a I friend played it for 8 hours non stop and we just stopped because I had to go home already.Then I never got to see him again, cause things went out of control.
>>330852982
Seconded. DD had the most universally acceptable roster. Nobody too important is left out.
Mario Kart Wii.
Gamecube controller compatible + custom tracks (in other words, all the legacy stages) and runs well on dolphin.

I'd like to see more changes occur as you clear up dungeons. Something like MM but more permanent.
Try to keep fighting and shitposting to a minimum.

Something in between.
Prefer to have an intended order, but many things can be done out of order entirely by accident if you aren't receptive to changes in difficulty because there's no hand holding and subtle direction.

Exploration

Make combat in 3D competent for once.

I like something about each of the ones I have played. Hard to answer.

The wand in the original but without the fire upgrade.

I want to see a 3D Zelda with challenging combat. For now, 2D.

Nonlinear
>Favorite part of Zelda
The Adventure
>if you could introduce or extend one mechanic, what would it be?
Would add moves with a command list. I want to have learn how to play the character. Needs more depth in the fighting system and an increase in combat difficulty.
So what was their downfall?
>>330851498
cancer took too long
hubris
>>330851498
Honestly? Lots of stuff. But mainly the fact it was a quick cash grab after the the success of the Wii. Unfortunately for Nintendo, that ship had already sailed and people were no longer interested.
I did it, /v/
Fuuka's terrible and so are you.
>>330851339
Take that back
Fuuka is angel
>>330851339
Fuuka is a pure maiden. You shut your Damon mouth.
Is this worth revisiting?
Yeah
Yep. I still tell people to play it to this day.
Damn I loved Blinx, I wish Microsoft would bring it back or make an HD collection or something.
Definitely worth revisiting.
