Q&A: May 6th, 2022

Added 2022-05-06 20:07:52 +0000 UTC

Apologies for the delay of this week's Q&A, and Randomly Mine. The last few days were quite hectic, but I'm back in the saddle, and hoping to have a rough cut of the latest video ready to post for everybody on Patreon.

In the meantime, time to catch up...

If your face was shaped like an F1 track (current or former) which one would you want it to be shaped like?

Suzuka would be quite shocking to look at.

What is a criticism you're sick of hearing about games?

Features.

Who gives a shit about Cyberpunk not having Poker at a Casino? It genuinely pisses me off to think that some of GTA's development was spent on lame ass versions of Tennis, and Golf, rather than making their core gameplay loop evolve beyond auto-aim slug paced snooze-fests that were dated by Max Payne.

Not once while playing DOOM (2016) did I think "Man, you know what would really improve this game? Swimming!" Yet apparently ID Software thought that while making DOOM Eternal to address people's complaints of repetition.

I'm definitely not asking people to follow the style of Goldeneye Rogue Agent, but I'm really sick of this idea of judging games completely by how many different things they do rather than analyzing if they do any of those things well, and if those things even mesh together.

Mass Effect Trilogy

Max Payne Trilogy
Halo Series
And of course...

Shadow Ops Red Mercury.
