Spend 1000s of hours and 100,000s of dollars developing a game engine for a start up company with little money and little staff... ooooor use the unreal engine 5 which is free up to a point and is all there ready to go... hmm

@@Chackravartin and will most likely still be better than what you managed to create if by a miracle you finish it

It's a very smooth brain take. Guy doesn't know how hard engine development is. Let alone to develop a game itself.

probably the same type of people who thinks "graphics gets finished first" lol

@@Beatofblues I couldn't find the video, but someone was discussing a director that wouldn't review anything unless it was almost fully through the VFX department. He'd just complain about textures and lighting before he'd actually look at the content of a quick render made to try and ask/show something.

Oh crap. At the part where he mentioned his favorite scary game I immediately thought Dead Space. Had no idea that was his own game, and I can understand why he wouldn’t pick his own masterpiece.

I Freakin' Love Dead Space (and 2 - but 1 is better). Played on PC in the dark with headphones.. Dead Space and Dead Space 2 are the only games I immediately replayed after first run through. I know Dead Space inside out and it still freaks me out!!!

Not really. Unless it's a kojima game 70 percent of that is gameplay. For example forbidden West has a 40 hour campaign and like 67 minutes of cut scenes. Barely a TV episode

A 10 hour game will have about 30 minutes of cut scenes roughly

@@iangray1980 are you stupid? writing isnt only in cutscenes

unreal and unity physics engines are amazing man, if i want to make something bouncy i can do that, if i want to make something sticky i can do that, if i want to make something a semi solid i.e. water i can do that. all of those features in a menu

yes but the physic engines have logarithms that are obtained mathematically behind them. people just make the calculations one time and they can be used in the program.

cmon now m1v1 initial+ m2v2 initial= m1v1 final+ m2v2 final collisions are a piece of cake😆😆Just kidding I can’t imagine creating an engine that is able to do all this. These guys are freaking genius

that's why we have stuff like "the Wrath of Clang" in Space Engineers

Best move is to make the physics buggy but in a consistent and fun way that better than realistic you want real go outside I play certain games for the iconic jankyness

@@excessoats Im with you bro he seems like he enjoys making a game

He did an hour interview about Dead Space on the Ars Technica UKposts channel. I’ve watched it twice. Highly recommend

I appreciate how someone can really sense how challenging video games are to make. Engineers and video game studio staff have pretty harrowing stories about needing to pull 14-hour days 6 days a week in order to finish a game on a tight deadline. I can totally see Glenn telling a team of people to shut the f****** and finish the f****** game.

Except for the cost part, yeah, he's down to earth.

@@DimitriMoreira I mean he's right on the cost part. Costs have barely increased over the last 2 decades even with massive inflation. They have to make a profit and $60 isn't very expensive for 15 to 100 hours of entertainment.

What's down to earth? I wanna be up to earth.

😂😂😂

That's very true I never thought about either point. The fact that $60 games have been $60 for damnear 2 decades and also the fact that the money the gaming industry is getting has ballooned. Also the accessibility of it. In a year, cod mobile made 1 billion. 250 million ppl downloaded it. The highest selling call of duty game, black ops, only sold 30 million copies. Some game like fornite are all microtransaction and they did the cartoon industry has been doing for years, make a toy. They are double dipping in the gaming revenue and toy revenue.

Another huge reason why companies have decided with the $60 price tag is affordability. In the last decades wages haven't improved as much. If you just went and increased the price tag , then less people would be able to buy said games. This issue involves the whole gaming industry and those connected to it. By keeping a low cost of buying new games would ensure more people are interested in playing games. This benefits industries that sell the hardware you would need to play said games or even industries (like merch) would benefit after someone played said game. A good example of a company not following that norm is Paradox Interactive. The Grand Strategy genre isn't as big as the FPS one. Considering that they can't make up their loses through quantity , they went with a different route. They will sell the base game for a small price but add expansions that could result in quadruple or more total price tag. You could still have more than ten hours of gameplay with the base game , so you aren't outright scammed but this is how they are trying to continue existing.

Tbh I think It's all hit or miss like tbh I would buy more games if they were not $60, I would also probably buy more micro transactions (like Booster packs for xp or in game currency) if the game wasn't $40 short of being $100

They don’t care about money, they care about growth, results and constantly surpassing expectations.

@@4m4n40 it seems like u have forgotten EA 💰😍

To be fair Activision had this type of passion before they became a god. Companies that aren’t there yet will always be humble and do exactly what the fans want. If they become massive companies, then who knows how they will act.

@@Tundra0128 Glen and his team were already royally screwed over by a big company (EA) hence why we’re getting something even better with this project.

S tier comment 👌

he kinda looks like doom guy

Yes agreed! 💯 Find yourself a stable copy of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. shadow of Chernobyl (2009 complete) or better mod, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised on the immersion level given the vintage. Underground levels and X18/X19 labs are really creepy! Plus big-sandbox layout maps, not all tight indoor corridor linear progression. The Metro franchise is really cool, but definitely the latter. BTW, the audio production of Callisto seems more immediate to the lead character. While Dead Space 1 & 2 had enormous spatial reverberation and very convincing sound signatures of massive ship apparatus. In my HT playing DS1 was insane. The ambient cacophony of industrial noise was quite terrifying! Truly gave you the feeling of being just a tiny vulnerable life, stuck in the middle of a hellish massive city like space craft.

He was in another video, maybe this channel I can't remember, where he was talking about the creation of Dead Space. It's worth a watch.

Depends on the art I suppose. There’s also some happy accidents, but then there still has to be a conscious decision it looks better than the “non accident.”

I see you've never played an Elder Scrolls game

Lemme tell you about a company called riot games

Not really if you’ve looked up the development of other titles especially older games.

The issue is now they are making games $70 but have even more microtransactions than before. Even at $60, plenty of games continuously break revenue records. Wanting to raise the price is just pure greed at this point. Notice how it's only the massive publishers asking for more money, instead of the smaller ones that actually need to make as much as possible.

All of these things are true, however the real issue with AAA games is they are being made by companies owned by shareholders. They are constantly in need of more and more money or else the system collapses.

how many people where buying games 10 years ago and how many more are buying today?

Loved this game back in the day and was genuinely surprised!

As someone who puts story and character development at first and most of the things second as well, I can't say I'd put myself through super unpolished game or movie. And zero to none developer will waste a great story to a buggy gameplay (Uhm...CDPR)

There are videos on that, Its mostly the same, you still have fun but then you do a second playthrough and analyse it or you take notes and analyse it during quiet moments in the game

I only have this one example, so it's hardly representative of all developers, but the game developers at Grinding Gear Games (makers of action-RPG Path of Exile) definitely enjoy playing the game that they develop. That said, PoE, like most modern MMOs, regularly have expansions and updates, so one could argue the game is always evolving and therefore different, which would keep the developers interested. The same can hardly be said about one-off games where you'd eventually memorise it.

Loads of interesting survival horror games for the PS1 and 2. The consoles have hidden gems. If you know Japanese, you'll have even more options. There are indie games for PC that are worth it, too. I recommend the ones by Harvester Games (The Cat Lady is the most popular one, it's part of a "trilogy" that is loosely connected if I recall correctly). World of Horror has an interesting design that harks back to 80s point and click adventures, but I was trying to play it the other day and got confused. I'll have to look up some guides 😅 The art was inspired by the manga of Junji Ito. If you want more Asian style horror, maybe check out White Day: A Labyrinth Called School and Detention.

And the art world. And the entertainment industry.

@@teethpastaa when demon souls and dark souls took off, there's already a new genre called 'souls genre' . idk if that's what it's called in EN media but that's how the CN calls it.

Honestly most people that find it hard are just failing at some basic fundamentals of learning or doing the same things, that arent working, over and over (Or being drawn to false conclusions just because they were "close" to beating a boss, especially when it isnt consistent).

Trial-and-error gameplay makes one feel you stumbled into the solution by complete chance, instead of making you feel you planned it out and thus earned it.
