I'll do it. I'll make a game. You'll see.

>>531899228
i will do it another time right now its not only too hot to concentrate on anything, but im feeling my depression real bad right now
im not in a good mood at all right now

>inb4 "its over"
no one owes you money faggot

this is the day /agdg/ almost died...

fucking YES there is harm in throwing in the towel.
I have no other prospects. I will keep making games until I make a masterpiece or get very lucky or I fucking die or get alzheimers.

I'll generate some nice terrains, cliffs and rocks, you'll see

If you waited this thread to be created to post progress you ngmi.

Show me your physics

Remember to put lovable waifus in your game.
Then if people draw r34 of your game it's free real estate.

>>531899723
me but i have a dick

>>531899723
genuinely had an empathetic meltdown over the work this would take to localize, then killed myself over the pain

>>531899647
my game doesnt have any physics because i dont have a game right now and even if i wanted my game to have physics im too stupid and untalented to learn how to

>>531899650
I want to do this but I dont want people drawing r34

How do I stop freezing up when I think about gamedev?

>>531899723
>} else if (whichstring ==0028) {
i look like that and code like that

>>531899410
>I have no other prospects.
See, this is where you're confused. You have no prospects, neither here nor elsewhere.

>>531900268
You can't, your subconscious wants to be a bricklayer, not a gamedev.

>>531900198
Bigger is better chud.

>>531900382
I've been surviving solely on gamedev for 8 years.

>pong game
done
>mario clone
finished
>top down shooter
checkerinoo

now what do I do? do I make a boomer shooter clone now?
or can I start working on the dream game I want to make?

anyone knows a good course for sculpting that uses base meshes and any shortcuts possible instead of doing things from scratch?

>>531900586
make your dream game now, better fail sooner than later. when you do fail though, don't give up. give it some time, then try again.

Should I make a steam account just for dev or just link it to my regular one

>>531900791
Link
It's never outright stated which steam account owns a game unless you put it out on blast.

>>531900586
Sure, why not. I recommend doing some game jams.

>>531900852
Are you still working on future phantoms or will you go back to dojd? I liked fp alot

>>531900476
>surviving
You could've also survived on food stamps. That's not an accomplishment.

>>531900586
i read pong game as porn game and was really confused at how you just casually mentioned it among the rest

>>531900989
Still working on future phantoms, debugging chap 1 of dojd, and working on a submarine game with the dev indigone.
Future Phantoms should be "finished" before next DD. Glad you liked it o/

>>531899723
What is the proper way to store text for a game? Asking for a friend.

>>531901097
based fashist dev

>>531901635
in a file

>>531901635
The best way is with a domain-specific scripting language like Ren'Py, ink, or whatever dialogue framework is most popular in your engine (you should absolutely be using one). The next best is some markup language like JSON or XML.

>>531901416
>Future Phantoms should be "finished" before next DD
nice but, why is "finished" in quotes?

>>531902167
I-my friend is using Godot. But the key phrase here is dialogue framework. Thank you sir.

>>531901875
The true fascist state is based upon anorexic goth witches who rules society with fashion, sneering looks an derisive comments.

What are the whiny defeatist assholes even doing in the thread, is it just an AI?

>>531902375
In Godot, Dialogic is most popular (it has its own scripting language). Dialogue Manager and Clyde are also usable.

>>531901635
something like this KEK

i tried to make a game with pure ai code and ai clearly has no idea what the fuck its doing

how did people get tricked into thinking this shit is useful

>>531902685
Clearly, you don't have high Brahmin verbal IQ

>>531901125
>fancy third worlder flaunting his fancy food stamps
in my country if you can't earn enough money for food, you literally starve and that's that. so earning more than the average wage from gamedev is an accomplishment.

>>531902240
I have already feature-creeped the current version far beyond what I initially planned. It will probably happen again.
For instance... I would like to make a big quest sequence for that train, add a graveyard with a quest attached and add more dialogue to all npcs.

>>531902883
>fancy third worlder

>>531903113
I meant
>fancy first worlder
I'm the thirdie and there's no food stamps here

>>531902883
>in my country if you can't earn enough money for food, you literally starve and that's that
why are you lying
just go outside and pick a fruit from a fruit tree you lazy nigger

>>531903002
I guess it'd be good to finish it before more feature creep comes. The problem with the game anyway is that I don't think anybody outside agdg would actually understand it that much.

>>531902637
thank you sir.

>>531902685

my interface system for my game engine is coming along quite nicely

Will soon release the demo version on steam
Need someone to nitpick everything on the demo build, feedback without mercy
https://bluesanddev.itch.io/galduen

>>531903867
Yeah, probably. I will put it on steam anyway, it intersects with dojd. One wonderful day I will be able to sell the horbror game package for 6.9 dollars.

>>531905459
The demo version is the one

>>531905756
Alright i'll try it.

remember to use post processing in your graphics pipeline

Just designed the character for my Hitman but you have sex with the targets game thanks to a tool created by mi parce Cris.

Call it

>>531907660
>>531907838
Ask Cris

I wish that the creator of Phucker in the Ashes and Legacy of Epstein: Bad Omen posted here. They're like my favorite dev ever

>>531907359
I always ask for feedback and use it quite often.

turns out making furry porn games aren't going to be profitable anymore in the near future
what have i been doing with my life

>>531907359
There won't be many box puzzles and they will be spread thin, not too fancy too.
>>531906637
only when you're around
>>531906331
Thanks!

>>531908192
Well, we need to know what we are calling it for here.

Every single time someone looks at an above-average /agdg/ game and goes
>NoOOOOOOOOOOO you have to improve MORE. optimize MORE. polish MORE.
I think of this image

>>531908463
what if you just remove the porn part and focus more on the game part

>>531904991
here's my feedback - wtf is even happening in this game? It looks too complicated, I don't even want to turn it on

>>531899647
Are boob physics a solved problem?

we have the mountains
great success

>>531909000
>Breton or Dark Elf

>>531909323
No. Most games really half ass their boob physics and they basically act like bowling balls on a spring.
You need soft body physics if you're going to do it properly.

>>531909064
It's not that complicated.
You put a rocket, fuel and a radio on a box so it can go into space and collect data so you can unlock cargo and ship satellites so you can afford better rockets and travel to other planets so you can afford crewed missions so you can afford colonies.

>>531909000
it's over

>>531902140
this is looking great

it's impossible to dev games without an artslut

>look over notes for next game
>realize it's going to appeal to no one but myself
>persist

>>531909731
Relax, branno.

>>531909000
This never happened
There's no "above-average" "agdg" "games"

>>531909370
How does it look up close? In my experience with Gaea it looks pretty bad because even at 4k because it's such a massive size. I guess you can shrink it down artificially and keep the terrain at a smaller scale which would give more detail but then you won't have a massive landscape in the distance. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong though.

Why shouldn't I use AI to write a script for my game?
English is my second language and ChatGPT easily outclasses my writing.
It is also million times faster and is able to research stuff on the fly.
I will just edit and plan and reformulate. Raw writing work is done by it.

>>531909000
the discord does that more than anyone

>>531910030
jeet

tfw I realize N64 vanilla graphics were not what I was picturing in my head when I said I was making a Majora's Mask-like.

>>531909940
I haven't set it up properly yet, but I think I will just use it to generate distant mountains, not entire playable area

>>531910341
Did you have the 3ds version in mind?
I think they did a good job updating the models while retaining the aesthetic

>>531910030
>a pond was boiled so you could be given incorrect code

>>531909000
FUCK the inner circle

>>531909771
King.

Fact. If you post about a project more than once before starting it, you're ngmi. You've already released your dev pressure once, and you have no more left. That's a hazard.

>>531910541
I don't think so. it's just some aesthetic I'll have to iterate on and bring from my imagination.

>>531910714
I've been releasing dev pressure all morning. I can't stop. It's everywhere.

>>531910714
I guess I'm superhuman then

>>531909771
I get you, brother

Main Project fatigue is real, so I decided to work on a prototype.
Idea started as a Poker Idle, but it slowly morphed into something else. Still don't know what exactly, but I'll work on it over the weekend and see what comes out of it.

>>531910602
Kiss the inner circle.

>>531911550
you're a fag. I'm so tired of your caring relatable bitchboy shtick at this point

>>531909771
I think you need to work with the goal of publishing it at some point in mind.
However, nothing creative is ever done by large groups of people.
Like you can have 100 make a game, but if more than a handful of people are calling the shots then it'll be a souless failure.

>>531909000
this except i think of this image

>>531911727
How is it idle?

First in-game character.

>>531912132
very cris like

balatro, but battleship

>>531912343
balatro, but anything is a great idea what the fuck
let me cook

>>531912132
this is going to be the next nubby's number factory

>>531912046
The initial idea was to have the player start with 1 random card, and manually play that card to gain points from High Card. Then use the points to buy new cards and so on.
Then I was thinking of adding auto-hands, which would detect possible hands from the cards in the players deck and so on.
The idea came to me while I was on the shitter.

>>531911727
yeah, this is why I don't come to this place anymore
ngmi faggot

>>531912806
>this is why I don't come to this place anymore
your here though
how come?

Balatro, but pong.

>>531911727
Yeah, this is why I keep coming back to this place.
GMI king.

balatro but good

I need to release...

>>531910668
>>531911550
bsaed

>>531911910
trve and trve
I have a gut feeling that the few people who played my game are going to be disappointed with the sequel if not outright pissed, I'm going full retard with the plot
a lot of it is subject to change thoughbeit

yamemasu ore wa...

>>531914479
>High-school
Dropped

>>531913204
Is that supposed to be fygoon? Why is it a green baby? It reminds me of green aliens like piccolo. I love green aliens, they're S tier character designs. I'm going to put a green alien in my game

>>531911932
Fuck off pedo.

painting details on textures is what basically makse or breaks the immersion in vidya, tommorow I will look into vertex painting, if I will be able to blend textures nicely, it will be awesome

>>531916241
yeah im thinkin this is based

>>531916241
Holy shit how do I do it this good

>>531916241
best if you add your painting to the heightmap height, this way you get the ground going more on the groves of the cobblestone

>>531916551
thats the goal

can you just add "roguelike" to any existing game or theme idea? like what if Pokemon was a roguelike? Or what if Uncharted 2 was a roguelike? A roguelike... drug dealer sim?

>>531917501
Yes.

>>531917501
>pic

Honestly letting your dev pressure build up too much is bad too.

>>531917501
Shota chads deserve the world.

I'm going to make lots of proggers today, sisters. You'll see.

>>531917501
Usually, the formula is [arcade game, but roguelike]. You take an old school "Nintendo hard" game, procgen level the levels, and add randomized power-ups.

vehicle physics

>>531917501

>>531918774
physics looks pretty good tho

It hasn't sunk in that I'm a pornographer

>>531918590
you have a problem granny?

honestly fuck my stupid dumbass retard life
I can't even properly implement the most basic of fucking systems
how can I even call myself a programmer
it just fucking segfaults and I don't know why. what is wrong with me man

>>531917501
Rise of The Tomb Raider had DLC (which is included with the GOTY edition) that is basically Roguelite treasure hunting. You're dropped in the middle of nowhere, you have to keep warm, look for resources, fight with enemies and search for tombs to find relics. It was suprisingly fun and you could play it with co-op. So, yes, you can make roguelite out of anything. Just have a vague goal and a lot of variables that will change the battlefield on the fly. I'm gonna make my own roguelite soon with a totally fresh idea.

>>531919952
dude segfaults only happen for certain reasons

>>531914694
>he doesn't know

A game is basically just a giant collection of if statements and for loops

>>531920206
yeah, such as the language trusting a dumbass to write proper code

>>531920346
not if you use mix and step

>>531920346
Inside a while loop

there are only 2 real problems in computer science
cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-1 errors

>>531920346
Exactly.

>>531920582
You forgot cache invalidation

>>531920954
That's a memory leak
*laugh track*

>>531920582
>naming things
Not a problem

>>531920131
that sounds pretty fun actually

>>531919689
>granny
interesting form of seething for an incel kek

I swear it's not just a balatro clone.

Due to the items in my inventory (not yet visible) every time we evaluate a card:
* If its value is higher than the value of the card above it, gain 1 point
* If it has the same suit as the bottommost (last) card in the stack, gain points equal to the value of the last scored card

Does this look somewhat fun?

the system is still broken even after reverting changes

Do any Unity devs here use cursor? Seems promising.

>>531922139
>it's not just a balatro clone.
it's a solitaire battle perhaps?

>>531922139
man, make the suits something cool like middle earth races, or demon classes with cool icons to represent them, make the deck have other number of cards instead of 13/suit. irl people use this good old boring deck because it's expected that people will have it, so you can play 100 games, but in the computer you don't have to restrain yourself

>>531922495
I use windsurf

>>531922821
Snarky. Hope diabolodev releases that soon. I'd say i'm copying more from nubby than balatro.

my game is going to use .ogv files as save files, all game variables like health, has_item_1, has_item_2, world_x, world_y, level_id etc are stored as key=value pairs in the .ogv file using vorbiscomment

the game is always saving each frame to a circular buffer the positions and animation states of the camera and all active objects, upon pausing and saving, it pops a now saving... screen, under that it has a lower-resolution subviewportal that spawns obejcts at positions and animation states from the history, and renders the image_texture to a temp file on the harddisk, then the next one, and does it for the whole time period like 3 seconds worth of game at say 30fps or so.

then it calls commandline tool libtheora example_encoder to encode those frames into a video-only .ogv file, then it calls vorbiscomment tool to write all the savegame key-value pairs, then it is done an the now saving... screen can disappear.

then on the load screen, the thumbnail is animated by using the runtime .ogv playback capability, and it doesn't load the system by having to actually load every possible savefile in a subviewportal just to animate the previews, it just plays vids, and then when you choose one to load it reads and applies the key-values to bring you to that part of the game with your health items and boss states all applied from the file.

and each save file is a single stand-alone file not a bunch of messy sidecar files or some custom format.
vorbis allows up to 4gb of comments data, and it is utf-8 encoding so json can be stored directly and binary data can be stored via base64 or something like this https://github.com/jedisct1/d8code

because it is sidescroller and most frames are similar content they should compress well

>>531922139
why shouldn't you just play this with actual cards

>>531922495
Why don't you use Neovim like a real dev

>>531889749
Does google say you’re getting lots of views? Do any of your purchasers mention your google ads?
So you’re paying about $750 a month total then.
For that same price you could run a 15s ad at a movie theater for a month. Or maybe get a small print or magazine spot.
Try cutting your google spend and saving it up until you can drop a grand on a print ad or a move prescreen ad campaign etc. Higher impact stuff.

I wonder what game the janny that always lurks this thread is working on..I doubt they'd be here if they weren't a dev themselves

>>531923484
probably cat tower

Everything's done except for the title screen, game over screen, some character art and a bit more play testing.

I need you to pray for me

fuck off The Weeknd

Does your game have accessibility options for Dalit gamers?

>>531925606
the nice thing about gamedev is that indians dont play games
imagine if they did and youd have to make your game for them
so think twice about saying evil things like that, okay?

>>531926026
Brazilians play games thoughbeit

>>531925606
like what

What does this even mean? I didn't update anything. Got an error saying CharacterController.Move called on an inactive controller. It wasn't there when I ran the project yesterday before closing it.

>>531926435
yeah but they dont speak english, same as the chinese and russians

>>531926435
>>531926673
Sar please translate into brazilian
we spend 30% of our monthly income in 1 game

>>531926597
close the project so it can reload properly

>>531926813
reopened it, but I still get the error. My character controller doesn't work with the physics engine now.

>>531925606
Good thinking. Im purposefully not going to translate to Hindi just so I can avoid this. There will be no Hebrew or Turkish options either.

Unity 7 will fix that

>>531927312
For me? It's Unity 2027.

>>531925606
It's an arcade game but maybe I will add continues at the cost of resetting the player's score to zero. The player can also make the game harder voluntarily by increasing the game's speed at any time. Thinking about maybe adding a time bonus as an incentive. Maybe I will increase the number of levels if I add continues.

>>531902669
what a fucking amateur. fits right in here

>>531904991

also what the FUCCC is a galduen.

how long is it acceptable to keep using placeholder assets.. i kinda just want to dev my entire game with assets i bought

>>531928590

You'd think so. But this way is actually less work for him since the localizers set their own speed and expressions.

Zelda-like is a surprisingly untapped genre.

>localizers set their own speed
What does that mean?

So it seems there was more to subnautica's delay like the lead devs project hopping a lot, including a movie? I can imagine that being done in spare time but what this tells me is that they're brainless. They didn't think this could be used against them, like okay we're good enough for 2025 EA lets just go make a movie about santa's elves. Its insane really. Publishers can be bloodsucking vampires but if they can put the studio to work and actually deliver a good game then I'll have no complaints.

A fucking christmas movie? REALLY?

Any assets worth making for Unity? What do you guys need that people would buy?

>>531937973
i would pay good money for a debugger for retards like me that dumbs down the graphs and just tells me exactly what script or system is causing stutters and frame time spikes

>>531937973

you could sell that bitch for 60$ and its a half finished game

>>531938370
>godot gets this built in

>>531936252
That's what the studio says but that studio has 250 million reasons to find any excuse they can to get them out of the picture, so they don't have to pay the bonuses

>>531936570
Ugh I thought speed as in take their time to actually do their work. Thanks.

Humans are hunter gatherers and our brains are optimised to motivate us to go out hunting and gathering even if we're not guaranteed to find anything. In lieu of this we instead enjoy gambling.

How do I get good at art?

>>531937973
I feel like there is everything you might need on the asset store. At least on paper. I bought Dotween pro. It doesn't have timeline editor. The fucker made it but didn't release it. It's been so many years. And this is one of the top rated assets. So the real problem is not that some assets are missing on the store, it is that the assets are always incomplete or have serious bugs etc.

this is a good example that having an art style is important regardless of your polygon count.

bocchingers bocchi if you will

>>531950990
Did you make that character model?

What is the best way to handle hitboxes in a 3D game?

The scenario is that you have the player character who can have multiple weapons with multiple types of attacks.
At the moment i have a hitbox for each weapon & attack type that activate and following the swing animation. After the animation occurs the hitbox is deactivated and returns to the original spot. This doesn't feel particularly scalable as I could easily have 100+ hitboxes for each weapon & attack type animation.

There have been no real games in the past decade. It's all slop, remakes, remasters, and unoptimized garbage.

Porn games were stealing customers from actual porn sites. They are going after the interactive porn type of games (with minimum gameplay just as an excuse to show adult content) and not actual games with sexual content. It's the porn sites who are pressuring Steam at the root.

>>531957965
Long time ago I also remember reading something like, porn content can lead to shady stuff like sex trafficking. And payment companies don't want to get involved in that. The big companies I think can use visa/mastercard for payment, so I think it's not the sexual content in itself but the transparency and not being involved in shady stuff. I remember they pressured onlyfans, because on there there are a lot of content creators and you cannot police them or track their behaviours. But if it's a big company they are more visible and have to be more transparent. They are more out in the open in contrast to some small account on onlyfans.

New stat screen. I was thinking about it for a while and when I finally started I realized my mind was thinking about 4:3 ratio and I had way too little vertical space. Still, I think it turned out nicely, but I still have to add perks somewhere.
Descriptions are much bigger. I realized that player needs to have much more context to know what is possible and to leave little to guesswork.That means stat descriptions couldn't be shown all at once, so now only the highlighted stat shows description on the bottom. Place for Dirk portrait was just a loose idea but the more I waited the more I wanted to have a visual representation of stats.
Feedback appreciated - is the layout comfy enough? Is stat font maybe too big?

>>531937973
I think there'd be some money in making "synty compatible" character packs but with a style that doesn't look like ass. So that devs making games using synty assets could buy your character packs to not look like a synty-like because those characters are what gets recognized.

Alternatively just making a lot of character packs in whatever style works for you. Problem is you need a lot to get going because people won't buy them if your selection doesn't have everything to make a game.

Thanks but This is to create a scriptableobject asset. It means you have to already have a script in your project. What I want is to have a scripttemplate txt file. Which will be used and create a .cs file through right click - create - scripting - MyScript.
I can modify the default new monobehaviour script template, but I want to keep it.
I guess there is no way of adding your own templates. Maybe I'll add a blank script and duplicate it when I want to create a new one. Then it will be included in the compilation process. It shouldn't but I guess it doesn't hurt much.

You should start with tic tac toe. I genuinely don't understand the "start with pong" advice. Pong contains a lot of work when you think about it.

I didn't import the package but I did make my own folder and added a text file. I don't know why it didn't work.

Also as far as I know this is to modify the already existing templates. I want to add my own.
I'll keep checking it. Also in Unity 6 they may have changed those numbers in some way it feels like. Because in my Unity folder new monobehaviour template starts with 1-. In that repo it's 43.

I figured it out! I was only changing the number at the beginning. You have to change the first name also.
In Unity 6:
Create Assets/ScriptTemplates folder
Add this file:
1-Scripting__MonoBehaviour Script-NewMonoBehaviourScript.cs.txt
This is the default monobehaviour script. You can modify this now. Make sure you restart Unity firs.

I made another file with same number at the beginning but changed the first name after Script__
1-Scripting__MYGAME Script-NewMonoBehaviourScript.cs.txt

They will both now show up in the context menu. I use my custom template to include namespace for my scripts.

>>531965830
I made a folder
>/Assets/ScriptTemplates/
copied over the default from Editor/Data/Resources/ScriptTemplates/ and duplicated it and renamed to
>1-Scripting__My MonoBehaviour Script-MyNewMonoBehaviourScript.cs
and restarted the editor and it works.

what kind of game are you making

I'm trying to understand SDL. Following a tutorial and just typing stuff into VS code I don't feel like I understand.
Like I understand that SDL_init initializes the library, but what does that really mean? I don't understand what exactly its doing under the hood.
Am I obsessing over pointless information? Is this veering more into comp sci than gamedev?

My game is very anti-Western. So if you're a westie you might get really offended by it, and by its very negative portrayal of Western countries and Western socio-political institutions.

>>531973829
Yeah, for my engine all I did was hook it up and then focus on building the engine.

focus on more important things first is my strategy.

>>531973829
>Is this veering more into comp sci than gamedev?
Your veering from nodev into an ever deeper nodev death spiral.

>>531973829
It just sets a bunch of stuff that if things ever went wrong, would tell you immediately that SDL can't work. It's not pointless information, but you'd be better off just copying all the code to set up a window because it gets heavy soon after.

Explain why I shouldn't use AI voice acting in my game without sounding like a raging twitter tranny.

>>531974079

shaders are a trap

Dialogue Trees must be single-branching. The correct answer is pre-selected.

Do I learn sdl by just going through everything in the index one by one

>>531973829
You’re free to dig into the SDL code to find out that SDL_init really does. If you’re interested in that kind of thing. It will be educational.
But yes, if you just wanna make game, you don’t need to further bother with it. The core is, the SDL library needs to set up a bunch of information for itself, before it can do all the things it does for you. This is done on the SDL_init call.

>>531974451
SDL doesn't even have shaders without OpenGL.

>>531974205
It's uh... Both.

>>531974523
No, you learn it by using it, but going through everything is a good way to use it.

>>531974152
How would you know my writing is stiff? You never even read it.

>>531974523
No really point in going through the index. You can rest assured that SDL can do for you:
>create the game window
>handle all sorts of user inputs (keyboards, mice, gamepads, what have you)
>copy pieces of textures (pngs) to the screen
>a bunch of other stuff that your standard library or smaller libraries may also offer (net, timers, sound, ..)
So JLMG and whenever you need any of this stuff just look up which SDL functions to use.

This is the most risque character, I guess american are not as repressed as I though.

I just spent half a day fixing a bug that the game only worked in compatibility renderer, vulkan renderer only gave a blank screen. I had to restore previous project version to a different folder, and copy across and reintegrate all my new files. nothing else would work. I think trying to make the splash screen transparent corrupted the vulkan renderer mode somehow but even when i copied the old project file back over and relaunched it still broken. I debugged it and tried different things for almost 6 hours. Now its fixed and I'm back to coding.

When my game has reached the point where all basics of 1 level vertical slice are in and I begin just polishing the movement, mechanics, working on dorky systems like adaptive music, stuff like that. like once I have character controller, enemies, level chunking working, I am going to save up $500 a month and spend it on commissions for 3d model sculpting, 3d model rigging, 3d model animating for my main character and the enemies. this will make the game look good and then it will be able to start attracting popularity. I will research where you find modellers and riggers when I'm at that stage, probably pixiv and using google translate i guess. its crazy what a different good art can make, i'd say programmers shouldn't even bother with programmer art, just block model with primitives like spawn a MeshInstance with a BoxMesh and call that your guy.

>>531975998
The steam review team has likely seen things that are way more risque, it doesn't even pass their radar. They've seen tens of thousands of games. I'm positive the gen x there are blind to anything you see.

actually this is the problem with most games with progression systems.
the truth is that progression systems never serve a game itself, they only ever serve "the player". the game itself will always retain better balance and more tight design without the progression system, but exploiting human psychological biases can makes the game more engaging for the player despite ultimately hurting the game.

>>531979572

>In a traditional RPG you kill a boss, get loot, gain levels, then fight a harder boss.
I have never played a game with a progression system that became more challenging as it went on. eventually the game alwa breaks under the weight of the rpg mechanics and you start overpowering everything. most recent example in terms of rpg would be baldur's gate 3 which is a game of fun and challenging puzzly encounters until you reach level 8 where you then start to steam roll the rest of the game's combat encounters. same with with its speech deception etc. stats, as the game progresses, you mitigate the chance of failure more and more.
or most recently, death stranding 2. i understand that logistics are inherently about efficiency and optimisation, but what you get as a gameplay experience is that you need to be mindful for the first few hours, and that's fun, and then it just breaks away and over the course of the game you just unlock more more powerful tools that trivialise traversal.

if you know of a game with progression mechanics that actually does manage to get more challenging as it goes on, please do tell.
