one you knew was going to be shitty going into it

its quidditch senpai, cmon

>>387852758
a game invented by an old unathletic lady for a nerdy, limp-wristed fuckin fantasy world

>"So let me get this straight," Harry said as it seemed that Ron's explanation (with associated hand gestures) was winding down. "Catching the Snitch is worth one hundred and fifty points?"

>"Yeah -"

>"How many ten-point goals does one side usually score not counting the Snitch?"

>"Um, maybe fifteen or twenty in professional games -"

>"That's just wrong. That violates every possible rule of game design. Look, the rest of this game sounds like it might make sense, sort of, for a sport I mean, but you're basically saying that catching the Snitch overwhelms almost any ordinary point spread. The two Seekers are up there flying around looking for the Snitch and usually not interacting with anyone else, spotting the Snitch first is going to be mostly luck -"

>"It's not luck!" protested Ron. "You've got to keep your eyes moving in the right pattern -"

>"That's not interactive, there's no back-and-forth with the other player and how much fun is it to watch someone incredibly good at moving their eyes? And then whichever Seeker gets lucky swoops in and grabs the Snitch and makes everyone else's work moot. It's like someone took a real game and grafted on this pointless extra position so that you could be the Most Important Player without needing to really get involved or learn the rest of it. Who was the first Seeker, the King's idiot son who wanted to play Quidditch but couldn't understand the rules?" Actually, now that Harry thought about it, that seemed like a surprisingly good hypothesis. Put him on a broomstick and tell him to catch the shiny thing...

>Ron's face pulled into a scowl. "If you don't like Quidditch, you don't have to make fun of it!"

>"If you can't criticise, you can't optimise. I'm suggesting how to improve the game. And it's very simple. Get rid of the Snitch."

your thread is shit

On the physical disc you mean?

Is this a VN? If so, how good is the best girl from 1-10?

>buying kusoge made by nu-gust

We cannot go back to the good old days...

>>387852508
Gust haven't made a bad game yet. Firis came close but was ultimately mediocre.

Fantasy is notoriously difficult to do well without falling into the trap of making something eerily similar to previous popular works. It's even less forgiving than science fiction in this regard.

>>387852229
Good rpgs require a ton of writing and design, you can't just pump them out in one year.

So, you'd think a giant multinational corporation like EA, Activision, or Ubisoft would be on these trends. Nope, they're retarded, greedy and lazy.

Fucking good GoT RPG when?
It doesn't have to stick to any script to account for the books/show storylines. Just take the Ice and Fire universe and go buckwild making a game.

The first game was supposedly very poorly made, and the next best thing is a fucking Telltale series (which I admit I did enjoy)

>>387876775
People buy Xbox?

>>387876818
Some retarded Americucks do. Granted not as many as the gen before but still enough to keep this trash brand alive.

I bought an xbox because Halo and Gears are consistently great games that are always worth buying.

I bought a PS4 because I got tricked into thinking that animu weebshit could be good. At least it has Crash Bandicoot remasters I guess...

HOLY FUCKING SHIT I CANT WAIT

>>387851862
I read a lot of EGM articles on this game back in the good days, but never picked it up. Count me in.

>>387851862
The walk animation in that teaser is janky as hell.

Hopefully its not representative of what we'll get in the final product.
