Bought this game after realising it was made by the same people in At Dead Of Night... 6 hours later and I had already completed it... Damn it was an amazing game! FMV deserves more love when it's done right.
@VigorHabitus3 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately there isn't a big market for FMV games anymore and they don't make that many :( Indeed it was an amazing game
@izstrella3 жыл бұрын
Yeah, FMV is amazing (and can be more accessible for creators used to filmmaking). It’s a shame that because a lot of the experience is video based many people just watch let’s-plays and don’t buy the games themselves (no shame on that if they can’t afford it though, I’m still saving up myself to buy this game and At Dead of Night). I want to create a FMV myself since it’s the perfect meeting point of writing, filmmaking, and acting, but it’s scary that you could spend so much time and money for no return. I guess that’s similar to all game-making though, haha. It’s just a bigger risk with FMV sadly.
@VigorHabitus3 жыл бұрын
@@izstrella I totally agree. Maybe they can find a way of allowing people to RENT FMV games in the future. I mean it's an interactive movie, the play time will be just a few hours, it's not worth really paying 60$. If they made it possible to rent for like 3-5$/24h, a lot of people would try FMV games.
@izstrella3 жыл бұрын
@@VigorHabitus • That might be a good idea. I guess it would be hard though since FMVs can cost just as much as other video games to make so pulling the price down that much might really hinder the creator and undervalue the work. But on the other hand if people can’t afford $60 they won’t buy the game at all. Renting could be really useful for people who otherwise wouldn’t want to invest in a less-replayable format. And hey, for the people who really end up loving the game and want to own it they could pay the $60 afterwards to keep it!
