Make It Again, Man

We all hate sequels right? Sequels suck. Why can't those idiots who make games come up with new ideas? All we get from companies like EA are the same game again and again. That's a bad thing right?

Or is it?

Actually it's not hating the sequels. In a way, this article is defending them.

Great find and read. Loved the Movies and do pray for a sequel. Didn't like Kudos or Democ... . Some great ideas though there is one place that sequels usually suck: Movies (Except for few examples like Godfather and hopefully, the upcoming Dark Knight).

a sequel is basically the story continued, or a new chapter with the same characters. It gives light on to whats happening afterwards. Developers CAN just stick to the same gameplay and go on with the story but this is their chance to make the game bigger and better! Although they could screw it up, they run the risk but a series improved is a better series

You, mister Cliff Harris, is a pre-school retard. I will try to explain to your underdeveloped brain why they do what they do:

Sequels allow game developers to have kinda of a "fail proof" opportunity to make money, gamers liked the first game and they are more willing to spend their money on a sequel cause you expect to have the same fun.

That extra "guaranteed" money is most of the times used as a leverage to allow companies to risk and create more innovative and unique titles in the future.

So, you sick dumb a-hole learn something first before opening that filth stupid mouth of yours.

Don't bash what you don't understand.

they make sequels to movies they dont have to grab your attention all over again, all they have to do is build on the hype they provided earlier its just easier to market, and easier to sell someone on

look its a sequel to that thing you really liked only improved duh of course it will sell trying telling someone a completely new story that may fall apart, its also more fun for writers to build on stories that they know and love than spend twice the ammount of time coming up with something that may possibly be half as good.

as you can see everyone involved is happier also its a good way for developers to adjust what they were missing before rather than reinvent the wheel

the only people who complain are a tiny minority that hate seeing a story continued and are getting tired of it

Why do you think they are remaking indiana jones movie? instamoney

Video Game Stocks Plunge on Fears Google's Genie 3 Will Replace Game Engines

When Google unveiled Genie 3, an AI that generates explorable 3D worlds from simple text prompts, investors responded by dumping video game stocks en masse—wiping out billions in market value in mere hours. But in their rush to flee, Wall Street confused "playable environments" with actual video games, ignoring the technology's hard limits while threatening the human creativity that makes games worth playing. As the industry faces a future of automated mediocrity driven by shareholder demands, the panic reveals a deeper truth: investors aren't betting on better games, just cheaper ones.

Duplicate story. Or does Christopher just remove xbox stories that are similar?

Humans have been developing things to simplify jobs since the beginning.
AI is going to remove the human factor from the job, but it can never replace all jobs that need a human factor.
I wish I could see the end of the story. What is the end, end goal, final piece, etc.
Is it a world run by machines, do humans live in a free world, does a dictator finally have an robot army, do humans finally free of working forever, does ChatGPT create an army to defeat Gemini., so many possibilities …
