Re: A? AA? AAA?
I think its more like as I do not agree with every game that isnt indie is a tripple A game. Smart Phone Games - Games made specifically for smart phone devices. Facebook Games - Games made specifically for Facebook. Flash Games - Flash based games made for the web. Indie Games - Games made by extremely small teams.… -
Re: [UE4] Game prototype: 'Detached'
Love the colors! I'm not 100% sure on the pixelated style though. I know what you are going for but it feels like there's a big disparity between the pixelated and non pixelated stuff. The cloud, fog and trees are on the extreme (minecraft) side of things whilst your buildings and vehicles are really clean and feature a… -
Re: Non-violent video games
Ken levine has some interesting things to say on this topic http://www.gamefront.com/ken-levine-on-bioshock-infinite-violence-is-essential-to-narrative/ I think it was him who was basically explaining that computers are good at physics simulations so most of our games involve that, driving, flying, shooting etc etc. We… -

Re: What is important?
It's not though is it. DayZ - half the art is recycled from 2006 arma and it's buggy as shit . 7/8 years since standalone released and it's still growing new players Minecraft - looks ropey as fuck, sounds awful . 11 years in and still growing. Battlefield 5 - looked great, sounded great, failed because they forgot to put… -
Re: Timeless Art
Artistic relevance has a lot to do with capturing a cultural zeitgeist. It has to be something completely original, accepted by a mainstream audience, and permeates into all facets of culture beyond the initial target audience. These sprite are 38 years old, and is probably more iconic today than it was in 1980: These are… -
Re: Zbrush Decimator vs 3ds Optimize / Pro-Optimize
Another thing you can do is use Blender's Remesh modifier/decimate modifier. Both are pretty powerful and Blender is free so its a win win. Zbrush is one of the most amazing apps out there though so its always worth using, but probably not just for decimating. Going back the Blender modifiers: Remesh has 3 settings, sharp… -
Re: Are Developers shooting Themselves in the foot? (design wise)
I think it's important to note with difficulty/fun discussion is that fun in overcoming difficult odds and winning is *one type* of fun, not *the one* type.
