RDR 2 had fantastically beautiful environments. sold well. Was very enjoyable. If the questing wasn't retarded it would probably be the biggest game of all time. I still remember what mornings looked like down south. Beautiful.

But I'd say, Zelda Breath of the Wild was one of the most enjoyable and beautiful worlds I've ever played in and wasn't realistic at all.

On the day of my wedding my brother erroneously believed he was my best man despite me telling him he was not.
He was supposed to write a speech welcoming my wife to our family, and while we were all getting dressed he handed it to me to read over.
What he had written was a best man speech, about ten minutes of stand up.

You don't need to be RDR to evoke that feeling. I remember the first time I played World of Warcraft. The open world, setting up a campfire, watching the sun set, all that shit. It wasn't realistic at all but it really evoked something.

I've never played RDR because I've just moved away from AAA games. From what I've seen of it it's stunning but I get the feeling I'd be paying for nothing more than a tech demo, because when I want gameplay, I want really in depth stuff, not questing. I already had my fill of questing and immersion from the WoW days.

I'm not saying it's specifically the questing. It's just from what I've seen of the game, I don't get the feeling of "I want to try this for myself".

There's too many flight simulator nerds for this to work, and a plane is pretty much entirely controllable from one place. For a multicrew vehicle game to be fun I think the ship/vehicle needs systems that can only be interacted with from other locations than the cockpit.

Barotrauma is a good example, the captain can steer the ship but the power needed for the engine comes from the reactor and there's a minigame to keep that balanced so that you actually have enough power to run everything, and the hull is breached so you have to run to the lower deck and seal it up, and now there's contacts on Sonar so somebody needs to man the guns. Even with that game's massive jank it can still be a lot of fun due to the workload and cooperation needed to drive the submarine well

For a plane you're just sitting in a cockpit with two sets of identical controls and everything is right there in front of you, unless you have some weird steampunk type plane where you have to run to the middle of the fuselage and winch the landing gear and flaps down manually

Also having played DCS on highly populated non-serious servers with retards taking off from taxiways and from both ends of the runway at once, an ATC is absolutely not necessary, sometimes there are servers where people try to roleplay as ATC but it's literally just a larp.

So yeah coop friendslop vehicle crew game I think is a valid genre, and I am making such a game, but it needs to be a spaceship, tank, mech or something other than a plane.

you can be addicted to your own product. but only if you are totally honest about what you want. it has to be true to your feelings, even if its gooner shit. or maybe its gore/rekt shit. or maybe it's gambling shit. you cannot "normify" the fun out of a game and then expect it to be fun.

Maybe because people don't even give a shit about examples? And the conversation alone was enough? The only game I have played on that image is Tomb Raider, and believe me only the original game captures the "feeling" of exploration that no modern game can achieve.

The argument is more that everything on the right looks really samey whereas you can recognize something like Tomb Raider, DS2 or LTTP from a screenshot alone.
I can name every game on the left side but I'm only 100% confident about Battlefield One and KCD on the right side.

Fair point. To imply that "realism isn't good" is absolutely retarded, and anybody who tries to argue this point is simply wrong. End of discussion.
Although I think that opinion would be rooted in the implication that less realistic graphics are "better" than realistic graphics in the sense that they provide a stronger platform for creativity, art style, and individual expression.
You can only paint a realistic tree so many different ways, but if you limit your fidelity for the tree you're painting, you'll be able to paint it in a manner that expresses how your brain fundamentally perceives trees.
I think this is why people strongly prefer low fidelity graphics, as it allows players to get a glimpse into how the developers and artists perceive the environment of the story they're telling. If the player has a natural affinity for a art style of the game, then they'll enjoy the game much more than they'd enjoy a realistic game of higher quality.
Realism = "That looks nice. I like it!".
Low fidelity = "That's a cool way of portraying [thing], I'd probably make something similar if I tried to make a game!".
This is my take on this topic.

We get it, your cola is a bit sweeter, with brighter and higher acidity.
Does it stand up to the smooth, full-bodied caramel finish of an ice cold Coca Cola? No, actually, it doesn't.
Perfect example of how marketing is a double edged sword in game dev (by that I mean, a sword where the blade is a blade but the handle is also a blade, making it dangerous to weld)

You've got me all wrong.
I don't mind realism in games.
It works incredibly well for certain genres. (milsims, horror games)
My problem is more that it's now the default style that people implement regardless of whether it's appropriate or not. Devs go in with the graphics style preset in their brain because it's what games look like now.
