Is it a true genre to be enjoyed and celebrated or maligned and ridiculed? That is what we try to figure out in this episode.  Oh? Do you like casual games? Pitiful, you're mistaken. The truest essence of gaming is to emotionally assault yourself with games like Dark Souls. 5/23/24 For more insights and discussions, check out our content through the following links: https://www.youtube.com/@makermovementsnj8084 https://linktr.ee/Makermovementsnj

Elden Ring: The Power of Heart! Better late than never...

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2237479/open_sms] Oh, the wonders of smashing one's head against a wall for hours on end and call it fun. For the uninitiated, the souls-like genre is exactly that. You adventure your way through a difficult and dangerous game, practicing your pattern recognition and patience until you've either given up or claimed victory as the king neckbeard. Well, King, with all of the other nerds who pushed their way through, You're not special remember?  Let's talk about the punishment and pleasure of the souls-like, soulsborne, souls-soft, souls-friends, souls... Something.  5/23/24 For more insights and discussions, check out our content through the following links: https://www.youtube.com/@makermovementsnj8084 https://linktr.ee/Makermovementsnj

The Cracks Are Showing

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2237479/open_sms] You know it seems like the only good AAA games are coming out of Japan for a while now. They aren’t without their problems. We just had more layoffs and closures this month. The industry shitheads are saying things like “Success Can’t Save Your Favorite Studios Anymore” and the like. Which isn’t true. That is not how business works but so few people care or know, they can lie. If your studio made 5 flops and the sixth was great you’re still going to fail. This is what is happening to a lot of companies. The question is why. It isn’t. We know why. You can’t scroll for a minute without seeing the quasi-political and culture war nonsense infecting games. I don’t care about current day or whatever people call it, I want to play rad shit. Spare me the tokenism, ecological message, fake history, pronouns, all of the shit. Just make a good game. Nobody cares about any of it as long as the game is fun. Well if they do care you know who to avoid and make fun of. I’ll give you the perfect example. Character creators have been in games forever there is little rhyme or reason to what people create other than possibly living out a fantasy or making the most horrible abomination to disgrace bipedal evolution. This mess has been bothering me so I wanted to hit some main points that twist my nipples the hardest.  5/23/24 For more insights and discussions, check out our content through the following links: https://www.youtube.com/@makermovementsnj8084 https://linktr.ee/Makermovementsnj
