Do you feel it, Zach?
My coffee warned me about it.


It's amazing that CEOs of studios with talent, experience and past successes still decide to invest 5 years of their company's time and resources into the newest gaming gimmick and expect to sell millions with their Clone #15: We Swear It's The Best One Yet. You'd think the industry would get a clue by now but it seems it really refuses to despite the countless flops.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

The need to constantly turn a profit to keep your shareholders happy kinda sucks and is unsustainable for most companies, woo capitalism.

My twist on the 'Battle Royale' genre is where you pick from the greatest kings and queens of history and the last one standing rules the world. Please paypal me $250,000 for this idea, thank you.

Get this: A Battle Royale game, but it doesn't have guns that can OHKO you from across the map with no chance for you to reasonably react.

if Nintendo does a battle royale it'll be Pikmin and lean way more towards the resource gathering than killing

I'm opposed to battle royale games, but I'd be unapposed to a jet set radio battle royale game. Or power stone, for that matter.

Pretty much anyone with the power to mandate such a decision is in a position where they're near totally insulated from the consequences of failure, and they only answer to a handful of shareholders in any real sense. It's a hell of a lot easier to chase trends constantly in the name of making mega bucks when the worst that can happen to you personally is getting a cushy golden parachute + board seat, and the company can simply shed expensive talent to pick up some new undergrads on the cheap who can be tasked with making some low effort, high returns garbage to recoup revenue.

It's honestly a wonder that decent games get made at all really.

That would get exhausting because you need to do your gestures before/after every duel or people might think you're rude
