A look into the sad trajectory of indie games from high successful releases to complete irrelevancy in just a few weeks or months.
That's the thing with gaming there's always new experiences to have why spend months or years playing a single game when there's a new experience right around the corner.
Indie or AAA if your building your game expecting long term player counts you'll probably be disappointed as gamers often enjoy something for a few weeks and move on only to return if it's truely a classic.
Out of all the generations I've experienced there's games from 30 plus years ago I still dust off and play like super Mario bros, earthbound, vice city and san Andreas being games I treasure and revisit every few years but I'm not going back to play a game designed to keep me engaged for months on end because it's also designed to milk my wallet in most cases.
Build a great game that people love make it playable offline and ask does it matter if the concurrent player count is under 100 a year post launch more often that not it doesn't
The price of entry is too high to take chances like I used to. Was looking at V Rising and that ranges from $50-$130 CAD. That’s a lot for an indie imo. By the time it goes on sale, the player count might be dwindling. But that’s the trade-off, I guess.
There's a dead or alive movie?
imo the best video game movies are movies influenced by video games but not actually based on video games. Grandma's Boy, 300, and Hardcore Henry are some examples.
"And to think of it more broadly, Uwe Boll has been responsible for 9 video game movies-to-date, which is approximately 25% of the total output in the medium."
Lmao naaawwww.. Doesn't sound legit. postal was alright. Same with mk and Mario. I can camp out tho.. I like a good shitty movie.
