Shulace Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 1 hour ago, joaocordeiro said: Yea, I agree with you. But can't we blame this in their "programmer/engineer mindset"? Because, the lack of professionals in areas outside of coding, thinking they can do it all, the lack of tools to gather proper feedback, the importance of a selected group of players, while disregarding others, the general stubbornness regarding all this, is usually associated with that narrow "programmer/engineer mindset". That's the thing though, they did reach out and did official surveys for feedback, like a lot of folks took part. There was good feedback, even their polls showed what the playerbase wanted....and they ignored it all lol. I just don't think its right to just blame it on a mindset, that sounds tame compared to what was done to this project. My point is, all this flack is kind of self inflicted and warranted lol.

I am, sadly, very familiar with what happened to Landmark, and Everquest Next. i am temped to watch the video, just for a trip down memory lane though. ? The truth is those devs made one of the most incredible games i've ever played, and it was only half finished. What happened with those games is just a ridiculous stupid tragedy. It wasn't the devs fault though. But also, what does any of that have to do with what i said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That video didn't even get into any of the good stuff. He didn't even mention Ukrainian Oligarchs or Stormy Daniels ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I left my comment on Landmark and moved on. Answering you would mean that I would want to start a discussion on the topic. But we seem to be having a discussion for the sake of discussion. In this sense, to get back to the topic: Technology alone does not make a game fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case the technology is a means to a type of game that isn't possible otherwise. Building stuff is fun, for me. If anyone finds a better way of doing it, let me know.

There is no denying there and yes, it seems I completely misread (and misheard) those comments.. oh well.. can't be right all the time Atmosph3rik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
