what are some card game design papers to read?

Isn't this a repost? It was posted before... What's different? EDIT: Oh, the other one was freely available on the GDC vault but not on KZbin.

Did… did he really not play 1 or 2 before making the tabletop game?

"hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm"

Great!

kind of funny that this guy says "i got every bit of source material i could" but very clearly has only played fallout 4 and has no idea how the earlier, better, Fallout games play. the "games" have settlement systems? nope, just F4. VATS is a "bullet time slo mo"? nope, just in fallout 4! hey, it's hard to balance damage-subtractive armour systems? remember how fallout new vegas handled that really nicely? nope, because that wasn't in fallout 4... etc

Classic Fallouts already were digitalized tabletop

Whoever made that dice comment, I hope they found peace because nothing can fill the hole they have in their hearts

Interesting!!!

Pyloon's was brilliant. It was easily the most immersive cantina in a Star Wars game that I've seen. It almost lived up to the unreachable (and unrealistic) *memory* of cantinas in Star Wars Galaxies 20 years ago, and it was so meticulously crafted and enjoyable to visit. Some of this sounds non-value-adding, but that just makes me so happy that *this* level of TLC went into something as 'sideshow-y' as a cantina.

WOW, what an amazing load of knowledge and my time was well used here.

Having Nintendo actually showing prototypes, and having the Main Programmer talk = surprising!

Ok so he likes to work on 30 frames a second. Does that mean that on a animation that is 1.5 seconds long he needs to create 45 sprites!

I love how george made plants vs zombies, probably the greatest phone game of the early 2010s, and instead chose to talk about mario 😂😂

Wow, what a great critique of Starfield!

How to get fired in the game industry.

I really want to know what that last section was lol. If anyone knows please share

Is the translator the Warden from Superjail?

Finally some creative use of the MMX feature set. It's been a good while since someone has used it for other than multimedia/encoding stuff. Besides, GPU computation has pretty much completely replaced most of the MMX features lately...

Still only cheaters

Brilliant.

WHOAAAAAAA!!!!!! TEZUKA GDC PRESENTATION?!?!??? INCREDIBLE!!!

Personally it's not their strongest 2D mainline Mario game, but as long as they had fun making it, it's all the shareholders could ask for. 😅

If only the games industry would stop closing studios en masse for whatever reason. Maybe enough people in the games industry would have enough skills making tons of games to accommodate older players in current ones

Mgs4

cool

Change the thumbnail, you monsters.

🙃

I think it's really impressive how the prototype hardly differs from the final game. They knew exactly what they wanted to do. Please find a new home Tango 🤞

Shitting on platformers for 27 minutes, basically 😂

Tango Gameworks proved they could adopt a new genre (from horror to rhythm) learn a new engine, create an original game mechanic, and on top of it have unique characters and story in such a short timeframe. Microsoft execs are complete idiots.

Man, I can't watch this right now😥

The RaC series should have followed the tone of Deadlocked.

This is sad 😢 Every GDC should starts with"suits...suits ruin everything"

Didnt get the game before but now that the devs got fired im definitely

is there any cut of this talk with only the english dub? i find it very hard to concentrate while switching from japanese to english

Great video. The first game is the most important one, like a first impression. Getting the rulebook and the components focused on the ease and usability in the first game is a big deal, and Leder does a good job in that regard. Root is popular, in part, for making something complex easy to learn and play, with a little bit of effort from the player.

This couldn't be more ironic, considering how brutally those very people were betrayed just a few days ago... Kinda sends a message of "it doesn't matter how well you worked and how clearly you can teach it to the world, big money will kill you anyways", which sadly has become the reality of our world, and the entertainment industry in particular.

Quick summary: Rediscovering the Essence + Breaking Conventions. Not passive additive gameplay but active multiplicative gameplay. Player action combined with field and objects to move in many ways from situation to goal. Action game = collision + movement + state, made up of physics and chemistry. Our solution is to connect everything in the world! BOTW is about freedom. We want players to think, whoa, I’m a genius! Combining the Courage to Say, the Power to Make, the Power to Show. Art style to combine playability and reality. Refreshing AND full-flavored! Neither too childish or too mature. Gutto Kuro = Stir the Soul!

54:00 This lady's advice is super useful, Thank you

Great talk! Been proselytizing for older-gamers as a "Blue Ocean" demographic for at least 15 years!! Grandparents sharing a nostalgia-toy with their digital-era grandkids made my first commercial game a success. Unfortunately, there's widespread resistance in the industry to even acknowledge older gamers, even as the populations age in the largest markets (US, Japan, S. Korea, most of Europe). Studies like the AARP's help, but it's not unlike the pushback against other underserved demographics (esp. women) despite decades of hard data disproving "conventional wisdom". Fine by me - less competition as a dev for that prime audience 🤑

interesting

burger battles

Im 32 not 50 but i observe that with age it takes me longer (or maby feel longer cause of frustration)to get hang of things in new games, i fell overwelmed with ui, quest logs etc

The badge system was a very clever game design that introduces maximum replayability.

I see @2:00 and I'm sold

This game was an awesome part of my childhood. Gosh - I wish I could still play it!!

Immortality became one of my favourite games of all time. Its an absolute masterpiece and Sam continues to create games unlike anybody else and to keep evolving the way he does it. I really cant wait for his next project.

Great talk. Saved it so I can watch again and then prolly again.

Boy, what an insightful video about a game that Microsoft said 'exceeded their expectations by all metrics' and won universal acclaim. Really look forward to seeing more from this studio. 🥲
