Gameroni: Avatar Anxiety

Brittany Vincent writes: "I'm hopelessly obsessed with digital representations of myself. It's much more comfortable for me to use a cartoony avatar, drawing, or anime image rather than my real photograph, and even more versatile to dress up a virtual little body to communicate various facets of my personality. I'm not going to balk at something beyond my few lines of text that serve as my "biography" or my motto that allows me to show others what I'm like, or at the very least what my digital self is like."

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk1d 22h ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
