to this day we have few clues as to who actually made the insane animated spritework of the Metal Slug series. Japanese game companies are weirdly averse to recognizing their workers for just about anything

They were afraid of poaching iirc so they made the devs use cool nicknames like Yui’s Papa and stuff

Sometimes they allowed secret endings that send you to a room with some of the devs, where they all talk about how they miss their families

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTpFvYbDuqA The SkillUp review of RedFall is pretty funny. The game looks like a complete train wreck. I feel bad for the DEVs who put years of there lives into a game that just sucks.

The Good Queen Clitoris posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTpFvYbDuqA it's one of those disasters i can't stop rubbernecking at, mainly because it's almost unfathomable for a AAA game to be released in such a clearly unfinished state. FO76 is the only one that comes close, but that was a game with enough brand power behind it that you could expect it to brought up to snuff eventually, whereas redfall feels like an early closed beta being shoved out in the wild in the hopes of recouping a portion of the development cost from preorders and suckers because the higher ups realized they'd got a turkey on their hands

The problem with live service games is that you're kinda forced to support them for at least six months to a year, it makes a stinker like this that much worse. you used to be able to just put out something like Quantum Theory and quietly shoosh it under a rug but this probably has a whole roadmap that they're gonna try to follow and each update will be a reminder about how embarrassingly bad of a game it is

whoever did those sprites probably got out of the game biz 25 years ago for a much better paying job with more humane hours.

Volte posted:It's not even a live service game is it? it has live service elements like co-op, repeatable radiant quests, and colored loot drops with randomized stats, so it's a close cousin if nothing else it wouldn't surprise me if it originally had a lot more of that live service cruft that got stripped out between the previous delay and launch, since i believe it would've been intended to hit the shelves before the big live service meltdown began

i'm starting to realize i might not have actually ever played any of these "live service" games that people have been hating i thought it was just like, a game that got free updates after launch, like monster hunter? what's like, the premier example of one

splatoon is a more benign example. in general they’re games intended to be played and “sold” indefinitely via continuous updates and micro transaction seasons really it’s more like trying to apply the MMO model to other genres

Yeah the thing that makes it a "live service" game is the content refreshes on a predictable schedule. I don't know if Redfall has this or just RPG loot Live service games are the ones that constantly release "seasons" with a battle pass and a bunch of missions and skins and holiday themed cosmetic crap and so on. They aren't subscription mandatory like MMOs but you do have to re-pay at regular intervals to avoid having half an experience The big ones are Fortnite, Warzone, Apex Legends, Destiny 2, and maybe 1 or 2 others

Think of MMOs but without the social aspects such as clans, economies, or PvE challenges that require or heavily incentivize grouping. So like Warframe and Destiny 2 I would lump in with MMOs.

If you've played an MMO you've functionally played what live service games are trying to adapt to other genres, except MMOs are usually better, and that's... that's pretty bleak.

For the record I don't really have an issue with multiplayer games having continuous updates and a long lifespan. Plenty of games do that and are great. Oxxidation already brought up Splatoon for example. It's pretty benign as games like that go and its continued updates feel like added value more than anything. But there's a certain flavor of that where things like paid battle passes, "seasons," often RNG loot with the standard rarity colors, and things like that all start coming in as different monetization and player retention angles and that's when it tips over from being a "regularly updated multiplayer game" to being a "live service" or "GaaS." Or at least that's how I tend to think about it.

Splatoon is probably the least predatory live service game fwiw.
