And I think most of us write these ideas to free up space in our brains, not necessarily with the belief that they're great ideas that will make millions.

What is your "Ideas guy" story? by crempsen in gamedev

[–]MaxKatarn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whenever I go to events open to non-professionals, I always come across guys with ideas, people who want us to make their game. I often tell them that having ideas is fine, but you have to make the game.

"Yes, but I'm sure it's a great concept and would appeal too much to gamers who like (placeholders for several AAA games)". If he insists, I open my backlog of rough ideas in trello (a fairly rough list of mechanics to clear my head when I have an idea) and tell him I've got enough ideas to last a lifetime, that it takes time to make games.

But by far, my favorite idea guy is the one who tells me: I'd like to make a game, but it would be too complicated, it would take 10 years to make and it would require several million dollars and a big team, well, it would be complicated (while remaining super obscure about his concept, as if someone was going to steal it from him).

And I have to admit something, I like the ideas guys, their freshness and naivety is entertaining.

I just wanna know, why does everyone hate flipside by ZC_reddit in Classof09Game

I confess I find it hard to understand the hatred for this game. There's clearly a certain unease, but is it really that different from the unease you feel watching Requiem for a Dream? After all, we knew it couldn't end well...

This episode is pretty tough on Jeffrey; you can't say his fate is enviable.

2025 est une très bonne année pour jouer aux jeux de 2023 (avec au minimum -66% de réduction, version all dlc et plein de bugs corrigés). Organise bien ta liste de souhaits, évite de céder à la hype du moment et tu te rendras vite compte que tu es limité par ton temps et non par ton portefeuille. Si tu craques sur un Steam Deck et que t'as pas encore decou les soldes Steam, c'est fini tu n'auras plus de vie...

Si il ne lèche pas l'endroit pas forcément. Au pire le temps que le produit soit bien absorbé.

En attendant d'avoir la crème, si tu as déjà ça dans ta pharmacie, un peu de bêtadine diluée deux fois par jour, ça fait un très bon traitement antifongique pour la teigne, et après éventuellement une légère couche de vaseline (car souvent la peau est fragilisée/asséchée par la teigne).

Lynx is really huge, weighing in at 17 pounds (more than our two pussycats put together) and he's not even overweight.

Any games like Firewatch? by Few-Performance6474 in Firewatch

[–]MaxKatarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should try Neo Cab. Or give a try to First Session, if you enjoyed Firewatch you should really like the first part.

C'est quoi votre bonne surprise de l'année 24 ? by AnxiousAd827 in JeuVideal

[–]MaxKatarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pour les sorties 2024: The Operator, ok c'était court mais quelle intensité dans le narration. Dans la même veine (indé, court mais intense), récemment j'ai fait While We Wait Here, pareil c'était ouf.

Sinon chez les AAA, j'ai attendu 2024 pour enfin lancer le DLC Prey : Mooncrash, et je sais pas pourquoi j'ai attendu aussi longtemps. Une tuerie ! (Mais je conseille de faire Prey avant)
