Would yall care if I do a Monster of the day and nerd out to yall about Monster Hunter?

Game design

Well design itself is the framework of everything in it. Most designers create a design document if they have an idea for a game and are committed to it. This document is the blueprint for everything, from game engine, programming language, genre, maximum number of players, game mechanics, goals, level of difficulty, etc. The idea is to not stray away from the design document you created, but try to stay as true to it as possible; if it's unfeasable or unfun, drop it or modify it. After drafting your first design document, your next steps is to figure out how how you're gonna try to stick close to it. If you have an artstyle in mind, how will you integrate the graphics? Can you program the game mechanic in? Can you compose music to set the scene? Or you can hire people to do so (but that is very costly).

Oh and last thing, unless you know you can, don't make it a full time job. The amount of people who drop everything to make a game of their own is staggeringly high, and the success stories is very, very low. For every Undertale or Cuphead, there's 100 more indie games that never see a peep. Keep it a hobby.

Sony Playstation has no games

 

[cashregister9]

It is still hilarious that Universal is using The Dark Universe branding for the Universal Monsters.

Either that trademark isn't expiring for a while or someone was really proud of it.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Fun fact: Metroid Fusion was made with Wario Land 4's engine.

Maybe someone can make a Wario Land in Dread's engine

 

[TMNTSSB4]

some additional details on Caped Crusader for both Harley and Harvey

Spoiler: Batman stuff

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I'm totally late on the direct. It might be because of my enjoyment of the Paper Mario games RPG gameplay but I'm totally stoke for Mario & Luigi: Brotherhood!

Started the Sonic Frontiers DLC

Ima be honest, I've been wanting to play as other characters in a 3D Sonic game for ages but this isn't very fun

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Is a Nintendo game coming out soon? They just charged me for $60

Snake buying things she doesn't even remember that she bought.


Girl, put the credit card down.

Sonic Forces really traumatized the fanbase dude

I’m seeing people upset that Classic Sonic is in Sonic x Shadow Generations.

Guys…it’s Sonic freaking Generations.

Instead be mad that Dreamcast Shadow is not there and it's just Modern Shadow

I pre-ordered it a year ago and Nintendo has done like no marketing for it. Forgive me for forgetting.

 

[Jondolio]

I think I'm gonna drop Sonic Frontiers and just watch the story stuff from the DLC on YouTube. I'm kinda sick of this game.

My biggest issue with the game as a whole is that it feels ****ing braindead to play, it's not really fun unless you really look around everywhere and explore and I don't feel that the game gives much of an incentive to do that. The boss fights are hype but they're only really good on an aesthetic level, they're just as braindead to play as the rest of the game and also highlight how unengaging the combat is, it's a textbook example of style over substance. I really want to like this game but it's just not that fun

 

[Wario Bros.]

Wait, the Marvel vs Capcom collection isn't coming to Xbox?

I guess I'm going with Switch then.

Honestly, the sonic fanbase that do complain are usually the diehard fans that aren't very flexible to open ideas at times (sometimes influenced by past experiences and/or opinions that were toxic left festering without kept in check).

I am a Sonic Fan, but not like the die hard fans that could go crazy at a drop of a hat.

Rumor has it that the new developers of Mario and Luigi are Next Level Games

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

To be fair if all the crap that Dark Universe was. I think it had a super cool logo animation:

The same developers that did this years ago.....

and Luigi Mansion 3 to name.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

The r/danieltigerconspiracy subreddit towards any preschool cartoon this millennium that isn't Bluey:

(Look, Bluey is amazing and everything, but that subreddit just seems to think that everything aside from Bluey is terrible and awful for kids, and they're often just straight-up finding things to complain about in perfectly good shows...)

 

[Wario Bros.]

I guess that's fine if former Alpha Dream members are helping out.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Literally just 90% of Youtube critics in general.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Years ago I've been told that when Metroid Prime 1 was first revealed it received negative receptions as the Metroid community didn't like what they saw but I can't find a source of such online.

Anyone know if it's true?

 

[Dr.DonPatch64]

That Direct two days ago was still amazing, and MVC Collection was My favorite

I like everything Sonic does, except the open zones. But I like every character both classic and modern.

 

[Alphine Agnitio]
