There are 6.2 gorrilion games on steam.
How does anything without a huge marketing budget or social media exposure make any money?
Why even bother making a new videogame?

presumably, the developer enjoys making the game and is artistically satisfied in the act of making something that they are interested in
Hopefully the dev has enough confidence in his ability or his idea that others with the same interests will be drawn to it and hopefully buy it
>>
You see, if you make a good game then people play it and recommend it and do lets play and shit. This is a trick a lot of indie devs still haven't figured out.

artistic satisfaction doesn't pay the bills, and there's a bajillion other guys you have to compete with

When will speedrunning become widely known and accepted in mainstream society?
I speedrun Goldeneye 007 during most of my free time. I hate almost everything "normal" people do in their free time like go bowling or some shit.
Everytime I get asked what I do in my free time, I tell them I speedrun and when I explain it to them they would just laugh and change the subject.
I just want a girl stumble upon one of my speedrun sessions through a crack of the door of my bedroom and witness all the technical actions I am performing on my controller.
I want her to be impressed and turn me around and plant a smooch upon my lips.
Fast forward 6 months and we will get married and have 3 children.
I will train my kids in speedrunning in hopes of them being able to compete on an Olympic scale.
It really seems like AGDQ is the only way for speedrunning will be acceptable in the mainstream. I hope they succeed!
I just want the world to acknowledge speedrunners and give them the appreciation they deserve!

Nobody wants to watch you play videogames, nobody is impressed by videogames, this will never change.

I know what you mean, i like to speed run through Mario Party 2. My friends don't understand me. I just was a qt 3.14 gf that will make food for me while i speed run. I never though about having kids, but after what you said, I want to have a few kids who i can train in speedrunning so they will be top athletes in AGDQ. Maybe one of them can get the golden time of 52 seconds in Dam Agent in Goldeneye

Oh wow, the douchebag no one ever liked, swore to defeat you, and who literally forced his way onto your team betrayed you. Who would have thought? Adachi genuinely caught me by surprise. This I not only saw coming, but assumed would happen from the first moment I met him.
So was this even supposed to be a twist?

The twist is that the Phantom Thieves weren't retarded.

>>378497180
It's not. The the things that happened afterwards with the plan and the velvet room are the twist.

>>378497431
That's actually kinda true. I like how it goes all Mission: Impossible / Burn Notice for that segment too.

In some regards like Pokemon availability, purifying shadows, and overall Quality of life, yes. As far as setting and story, not to much and I prefer the coliseums in Coliseum more than Gale of Darkness.

>Botw is the hardest Zelda.
Seen that posted here. Wanted to see what everyone thought. It's the easiest Zelda I've played. Enemies aren't difficult when you explore so much you have to much food and weapons to die.

who are you quoting?

>>378496282
Most likely they mean the early game, not the end game. When it comes to early game, its easily the least forgiving in terms of how much damage enemies can do. Also, if you go straight to the end it can be the most punishing by a long shot.

Get games that you would enjoy.
You can have *muh graphics* but most of them are in generic shooters.
