I guess I didn't realize the frequency of the releases. But at the same time, it depends on how much replay value they expect in their games. I don't know about you but I think I'd rather have 3 good God of War games (As an example, I'm not saying they're good) than 1 decent Mario Kart that I'll play for a month until…

Yeah I know what you mean. I guess I'm just bummed when companies do that. I mean, Infinity Ward makes a great CoD but I bet they could make another pretty damn awesome game. Nintendo has the ability to create awesome new IPs but there hasn't been a single thing that has interested me, that's all.

Yeah but all of those first party titles you are mentioning are NEW and those systems have a substantial amount of great 3rd party content. Mario has been around since 1981. That's about 30 years of Mario. Sure, you can say the same thing about tons of other franchises, even in film, comic books, etc that have been…

It's nuts, I talked to a guy who does films for other countries like Vietnam and China and their government actually has to approve the content of the film before allowing it to be screened. Blows my mind because I never knew such a thing existed. Now I feel like a spoiled 'murican.

Video doesn't look bad at all. That's a crap ton of special effects and you know they didn't have a huge budget but still pulled it off. I think there's a slight cheese factor but it looks like they hit what they were going for. I think I'm going to try the open beta! Been hearing about this game for quite a while.

I knew I recognized her. She did well in Nuka Break but this character seems a bit odd for her.

I'm sorry guys but even I grew up playing the NES and 64 but I don't understand how Nintendo can still be a company churning out practically the same games every year. It doesn't interest me one bit. I got a Wii as a christmas gift when it first came out and I bought like one game for it. I'd love to see some new…

This game would be super fun with friends. I'm the only one out of my friends that bought it though and I got bored of it... But I love the world/setting. So awesome!

Success doesn't come to everyone in their 20's. I work in the entertainment industry and it sure is a ball buster. I work part time as a delivery driver. Do I like my job? Not particularly. Does it pay the bills? Yup. I work 70 hours a week sometimes when going between entertainment and my part-time job. But over the…

OMG A GLITCH. MUST BE A TERRIBLE GAME.

I'm a sucker for big cinematics and sci-fi in general. The game looks like it could be worth a shot but my god the AI right now looks like it's from a 2000 game. I love classic shooters too...

Don't care a whole lot about Razer. I just bought a new Razer Deathadder mouse because my Diamondback mouse of 6 years just broke on me. My friend called it "Designer peripherals" which I guess is kind of true. *shrug*

Thank god some posted this... Otherwise it would've bothered me all day.

Yeah, the audio department is something I do know about and that's very time consuming. I never played it but I always forget how much dialog open world games have (Fallout, Elder Scrolls, etc). I remember reading an article, probably here, and they said put out a number of how many lines of dialog they had and my…

Yeah but SWToR is probably a TON of royalties trying to get rights for that franchise. Elder Scrolls I could understand, it's just a ridiculous amount of assets.

Yeah a lot of my friends are in the games industry too (as well as myself but I work with mostly indies and mobile developers) so the larger scale stuff is a bit more foreign to me. But it does make sense. The game industry is just like the film industry. The return on their investment can be minimal for the big…

The funny thing is, I held off on backing this project. I guess because I didn't really "get it" and I wanted to see more of it before I decided. But yes, we definitely need more creators like this. As long as it lives up to the hype I think it will be a success.

Totally makes sense. I think a lot of developers are following each other's shoes too so there's a lot of cross influencing when Indie Studio A should be looking at their finances and stretch goals differently than Large Studio B.

Yeah I just did a quick google and I was way off on some of the bigger games. I know these games make a lot but I forgot how much they cost. Why don't I get to work on big games like this? Haha. But I guess that's what I meant, indie games can get by on muuuuch smaller budgets because they know how to squeeze their…

But who knows! Maybe this went from a 5 hour game to a 50 hour game, haha! But it could definitely be bad financial management. I'm not going to judge because I don't know much about it. I'm sure a lot of these guys are getting decent salaries ;)
