Why are game plots just so fucking BAD and generic?
Is there some big roadblock in game development that doesn't allow for good plots?

I tried the code and it did not compile. I tried throwing some modifiers at the parent class like, abstract, but those did not work either.

>>146809528
I have a class that has "List<ParentClass> myList". But in reality the List will never be ParentClass, it will be one of the child classes.

Recreational reading has long been on the decline, with playing gaem/internetting taking the role in recent years. The audience is fed on videogame stories, the developers themselves are fed on videogame stories, big studios and indies alike squeeze their budgets with writing a low-tier concern.

>>146810186

Good games are hard to make
Good stories are hard to make
There's very little overlap between good game designers and good story writers
Good game stories have to complement the game and its gameplay (ludonarrative dissonance and all that)
It's hard to make engaging gameplay with a story focused game

>>146810186
Good plot means more assets and stuff.
Assets are expensive.

>>146810369
List<Parent> list = new List<Parent>();
Child child = new Child();
list.Add(child);

should work for any child class.

I’ve done a bunch of stuff since the last update. Check it out!

Of course it’s STILL a work in progress, but I feel like the game looks slightly less worse now. I also changed the inventory, added a “toolbox” inventory where tools get stored, a test options menu, (simple) real world-synced day/night, changed the way casting the fishing rod works, added footstep sounds (that change based on what terrain you’re walking on, including nothing if you’re in the air), and a lot more. agdg Demo Day 9 is coming, and I’m going to try to get as much as possible in the game for it.

(I legitimately don’t even remember all I did since the last update. I did a lot of stuff. I should probably start keeping track of all of it)

Because the story needs to focus mainly on the player, so they feel like they have meaning in the story.
The player needs to be someone or something that is fairly powerful or special in some way so they have a reason to be a part of the story.
The more freedom you give a player the less the story can be tight.
And of course the more story there is the more art, dialogue, animations, cut scenes, etc, there has to be.

You live in a 1-man Billboard station on the edge of a busy jump gate.

Get given contracts to raise interest in certain local products/services. Government propaganda too.

Manage which ships (military, truckers, tourists etc) you orient your billboard towards in order to make the most money without losing too many contracts.

Oh, you mean there are MULTIPLE child classes under that one parent. You can just add them and it'll work fine, as long as the child class inherits from the parent class. You can either use a local separator, use instanceof, or override an identifier class to tell which type it is when calling.

game maker is great for really simple games like this. if its your first time making a game read the sticky i guess, and dont make your dream game right away, work on small games , pong, pacman, stuff like that. build up your confidence and your knowledge of the engine(game maker or whatever) and make sure to always always always, finish your games when you are first starting out. its a good skill to learn to completely finish a game, (pacman, pong,)

with no midtones. also wondering how i would go about texturing for this style, or would i just make everything mostly flat?

For visual novels, the easiest would be Ren'Py or Tyranobuilder. They have quite a lot of support.
More info on other engines and the ones I mentioned:
https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewforum.php?f=57
If you want more options in a visual novel, you're going to have to learn how to code, especially in Ren'Py.

If you're using Gamemaker, you're going to have to write out the visual novel engine yourself, but you'll have access to more gameplay options if you know what you're doing.
Once you get the visual novel portion down, and optimized it to your liking, you can add whatever extra gameplay element you like, and then call the visual novel section whenever you want for whatever you want.
Don't buy any of the visual novel shit you find in the GM: Marketplace, no matter how cheap. Just make it yourself. It's actually easier than you think.

I prefer target. It's easier for the target to detect when the bullet is hitting it and triggering events rather than having 100 bullets telling the target that it should trigger an event. Plus, you don't have to point the event to said target, thus removing the pain of dealing with multiple copies of the target.
