Maybe thats true, but thats okay. Strength exists because of weakness, and vice versa.
I thought the writing and character development were fine. Sometimes things just dont resonate with people.
Lol. Not every game is for everyone. People forget that…or they never knew to begin with perhaps.
Typically when we hear “stuck in the past” or
“Outdated” it usually means “we want more cutscenes.
Elden ring was ass, so good chance
Yeah, I think they are overrated as well, based on how highly people lift them up. People hoist clair obscur up as if it is a 15/10 game.
Yeah, dying is an expected outcome in this game. I die alot.
Its interesting reading all of this while being right after almost half a year ago. Now we have two professionals saying what I said so long ago. The audience always talks about what the devs need to do, but why are we not checking ourselves. I have observed the lack of understanding emanating from people for so long now, and it decays further by the day. Message for the audience: REFLECT…for yourselves, and for developers.
Subjective. Something people now and days cannot seem to grasp.
@Joab
“Makes your games better than you?” Really? Last I checked, Bioware hasnt released a crpg since origins, so Larian is not doing anything one to one better than a fundamentally different type of game. Bioware has changed their direction, and fans are so bound to their attachment to the old Bioware, that they are becoming resentful and hateful, and worst of all…blind. Its fng up your perception.
This is what people do in general, especially gamers. Gamers look at things as if the devs failed them, and never ask if they themselves are the cause of the dislike for the game.
@Foxtrot again
You calling it a s****y game is constructive huh? That is demolition, not construction. Lol
@anast
Just because you can do a thing, doesnt mean you should. If a person does not like a game, fine. But people cast a domain expansion so large with their opinion, it starts to effect others adversely. Just because a game is crap for one, doesnt mean thats the case for everyone, and that is something many dont….understand….
@cockney
You need to understand because it makes things better…including for yourself. If you understand the true nature...
@franwex
Maybe you do, but alot of them dont understand. I see the discourse around it constantly.
@MDTUNKOWN
Apply this to yourself next time you f up. Or better yet, feel free to go and develop a bethesda style game. Tell me how that works out.
Because people can just say random crap and get upvoted. It reinforces them to think what they say has validity.
The dev is right. I have witnessed people walk themselves into a wall due to a lack of understanding. Not just in game development, but in card games, fighting games, discussions, etc.
Simple for us…not so simple for a business.
Dont underestimate how much more there is to things. Understanding is key.
The thing is that when you dont understand something, the judgement of quality becomes affected. People will see a giant open world game with infinite variables and say “why is this buggy?” The one who understands will say “it has to be buggy, thats the trade-off.”
And shadows reminds me of something origins is lacking. Virtually every game is lacking something. It is because it is lacking, that it has what it isnt. Funny dichotomy that…
Yeah, it really is underated. Lots of cool attention to detail.
