Caligula is like opposite-RPO: imagine if the main characters realized how awful the Oasis really was and become known as terrorists trying to destroy the world, against all the other nerds who think being permanently extremely online is awesome and want to stay.

Alfheim online has the worst character creation system I've ever seen. It don't even tell you what each race of fairies is.

TOP draGUN is amazing. I’m hooked. The art style is different to what I’m used to and took a few minutes to get, but it’s part of the charm.

Sharkopath posted:Every single game uses the same random gen character creation?? What the heck This made me  too until I thought a bit about game design while watching: giving people full control over their character creation upfront would probably do more damage than good in several ways. People already spend tons of time upfront designing their characters, in VR this might actually kill them. Less snarkily, getting people into the game quicker with some presets and adjusting later is a much better design, since those that want to customise view it as a reward anyways, so may as well make it one. And being handed a character based on a range of your specs does feel more personal.This also is handwaved by the exposition that this is only the 2nd gen of VR games. By the 5th gen I'm sure there will be games that are almost entirely based on character customizations. Like character creation was just less developed when Everquest/WoW began versus RPGs now. There just weren't options to play a pretty princess maker like Guild Wars 2 back in 2004. AnacondaHL fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Apr 14, 2018 |

GGO is cool and I hope it strikes the balance between pastoral character interaction and cool action more in the future.

I like that its a show where the main character actually just plays the game as it's intended to be played and has fun doing it. And she PK's and isn't treated like an rear end in a top hat for it.

It’s not written by the original series’ author, right? That might explain why it’s good.

I haven't watched it yet, but does it suffer the problem the main series did of trying to treat an FPS like an MMORPG?

Anyway yeah, VR aside GGO totally looks like a game that could exist today. Big map with some Destiny-style PvE with some PUBG-y PvP modes in their own instances.

reki kawahara is a fine author. the sword art online progressive novels are straight up good, and sao has a few decent arcs in and of itself. and accel world is basic but enjoyable.

SAO's first plot is okay it's just Kirito is so...Kirito it drains the fun out of it. Well, the second arc is also horribly written too GGO is fun though and I'm actually going to watch all of it which is the biggest surprise

To my understanding SAO is a polished up version of something he wrote a good while back that happened to get picked up along with accel world, so I'm not surprised that it has more issues than later stuff.

I think he has good ideas but because of how he churns poo poo out, he can't really think it through well enough. He's extremely impressive for the amount of content he puts out though.

I wonder what the biggest technical hurdles in making an openworld mmo-FPS would be in the present day? I'd imagine a huge issue would be draw range for sniping, especially if there is no real projectile. Both modern MMO's and shooters use TCP for important data, right? So that wouldn't be an issue? I wish I knew more about networking.

Server lag/ping would be the big one as the more players you have on the more it would mess with things. It's why shooters tend to have caps for matches that are smaller than open world MMO's We probably won't see a full scale Action/shooter MMO till most of the internet is on Fibre which won't happen any time soon (in North America)

There might also be an issue keeping players if it's open pvp with low time to kill. The optical vs physical distinction with players having some protection against pve weapons apparently did not much matter.

Gurazeni is cool but from the description I thought it'd be a lot more intense like Kaiji or something. That said it's nice to see an anime that focuses on the performance and statistics aspect of baseball and all the character designs are nice and varied. The soundtrack is really good too.
