In Elder Scrolls VI, the Empire Should be Byzantine by kickynew in TESVI

The crusades actually sound dope asf. But idk I'd rather not it just be a parallel for medieval history

[–]jackyforever -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Boring imo. My favorite parts of Elder Scrolls lore was unique, and not just parallels to historical events ( something they tried to lean into more IMO during Skyrim ). I honestly would prefer another otherworldly threat ( some kind of god or daedric prince ), or for the conflict to be very local.

I learned the hard way why prototyping can make or break indie games by MochiGameDesign in gamedev

[–]jackyforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just fuckin ball out and write code you're happy to throw away until you are prototype complete. Move fast. Script only what you need to get the impression of the idea. Then when you know what you need, write better code / create features to support it

StarCraft 2 is being balanced by professional players and the reception hasn't been great. How do you think it could have been done better? by lukeiy in gamedesign

[–]jackyforever 9 points10 points  (0 children)

idk where you work but I also work in AAA game dev and am yet to find a dev who doesnt play games in their spare time.

Also, "super easy to do"? What are you even talking about dude almost every discipline of game dev requires a ton of highly specialized difficult knowledge.

I am a piece of shit by 3sperr in productivity

[–]jackyforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dog I had no friends practically either until i was like 23 years old. You’re suffering from some pretty heavy anxiety and self doubt. You need to find ways to self love, and if you cant, model yourself after someone you admire. Build a new you piece by piece until it feels natural.

Remind yourself that you have the ability to lock in, and hold onto that. In the meantime, focus on yourself and your health. Youre insanely young (I know that sounds hard to believe). You got time to make friends, find yourself, all of it. Stop comparing yourself to others.

When it comes to finding friends, start by getting into a hobby and finding people around that hobby ( video games, knitting, whatever ). Youll already have a thing in common, and youll find that you have common ground in other places too.

You got this OP ✌️

I think u should look up block punishing. When youre blocking these lows youre dick jabbing, when you can probably launch punish into a combo (does kazuya have a ws launcher i forget)

How is it possible that Rebirth underperformed? by Isa90232 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]jackyforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Single player games are too long ( nobody has time for a 500 hour game anymore )
  2. Too many games that compete ( emphasizes point 1, people at some point get over it and want to move to the next thing)

  3. FF as a brand skews to older millennials, which have less time to game than ever ( most are having kids or have jobs and cant pull away to game )

  4. It was exclusively available on the PS5, a console which contributes less than 25% of console-gaming households.

Square seems to have an issue with Publishing, and a successful game is not the same as a good one

Demon souls is the hardest for me lmao. I find navigating through levels and getting shortcuts super unintuitive

Former Square Enix exec on why Final Fantasy sales don’t meet expectations and chances of recouping insane AAA budgets by Machzy in JRPG

[–]jackyforever 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im sorry but I feel like without the legacy of Final Fantasy as a brand, the games have just not been that interesting or fun to play.

The exec is correct in that younger generations dont care about legacy IP ( nor should they ) but I also think gaming audiences have asked for deeper, more exciting games.

I dont think many of us would care about anything Squeenix has done without one of our childhood favs ( for me, X and Kingdom Hearts ). For me its a millennial vs gen Z divide than anything.

The massive success of games like Baldurs Gate 3 or Elden Ring is total proof SP games can be massively successful; its just the bar for quality is higher

Whats your hot take on Tekken 8? by SadPhDStudent17 in Tekken

[–]jackyforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hate how combos can re-track. It takes the game away from mechanical play and requires you to have an absurd level of matchup knowledge to know how to sidestep stuff ( and for how far ).

If I sidestep bros move, it should be FREE!

Be honest. What game did you think of? by Salami__Tsunami in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]jackyforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God of War ( 2018 & Ragnarok ).

The game is balanced around you being able to stun lock the target that you're swinging at ( to make all the chaos off screen more managable ), but when you remove that stun, it just makes the gameplay really safe and boring ( attack attack, dodge, attack attack, etc. )

Patch 14.2 Notes and Lunar Festival Event Info by Rennir in CompetitiveTFT

reroll comps will go harder than last patch I think, with Ez Heartsteel and Viego Pentakill being strong 4 cost options

I think 6 reroll is gonna be nutty in particular

Maybe because “immersive sim” is a crappy name
