The only time I ever preordered was Crysis 2 cos I loved the original. I was still in high school and I saved for months for the $90 edition. Never again. Now I try to not even get invested in games that haven't come out yet, let alone preorder it. There are exceptions to that but unless it's something by a studio that's almost never done me wrong (FromSoft, Platinum) then I might get a bit excited before release but I'll never preorder. Crysis 2 proved to me that a game can have amazing trailers and gameplay and can still play like garbage.

Smart lad. Last game I preordered was... well, I kickstarted Shenmue 3 back in 2015 (the one and only thing I have EVER helped crowdfund) and wouldn't you know it, they bent us over and fucked us, so I'm getting a refund for that as soon as they get their shit together and actually offer those refunds they promised. Apart from that, the last game I actually preordered was, uh... Borderlands 2 I think. And I never actually finished playing through that. So yeah, I haven't missed out on shit by not preordering. Actually, I don't even _buy_ games after they come out any more because, frankly, fuck almost all of them.

I suppose the difference is that now you can play the entire game as either one of the protagonists, whereas Jacob and Evie only could play a certain set of missions that were locked for the other character. It may not be a huge and ground-breaking difference, but it's still a change in gameplay.

The end message that didn't make it into the KZbin version of the video (for some reason): *Please don't fill the comments with the usual "why didn't he mention X, Y, and Z" shit because the point of this exercise has never been to list off every title and give a token snark to each one, but to encourage critical thinking as a counter to E3's deliberately mind-numbing hype. It's too easy to get swept along with the bright lights and the constant coverage and forget that a lot if not most of these games are created as obligatory products rather than as something with artistic integrity, often designed for broad appeal and the numbing of emotions rather than their stimulation. But at the same time it's a mistake to dismiss everything out of hand, as any genuine passion a developer had for their own contribution can shine through even the densest corporate machinery. Assume I said the same thing about every game: "Could be good or bad, but there's no way of knowing until it's been played through by someone who isn't being paid to shill for it." As a basic starting point, try considering what you aren't being shown as much as what you are. If you noticed, as I did, a couple of conspicuous edits in the Anthem and Rage 2 gameplay videos that didn't appear to signal a change of scene, ask yourself what was cut out that the publishers didn't want you to see, and why they didn't feel like the game could sell itself by its unembellished appearance alone. Also, consider the way the player in a gameplay video acts wholly unlike one in real life, usually moving slowly and rotating the camera languidly to drink in the expensive scenery, when a real player would probably want to move and look around a lot faster, and such a fundamental change of pacing would almost certainly impact any story elements that the gameplay video showcased* (Did my best to copy the message over but was using my phone so there are probably some mistakes. It should more or less all be there, though.)

This was one of Yahtzee's best E3 rants to date. Man, his rage over Assassin's Creed pretending to be progressive by doing the exact same thing they'd already done two titles earlier was so passionate it made me angry as well. Also, yay, we're getting a Beyond Good and Evil II, I hope that's as good as the first one instead of sucking a kajillion todgers like most sequels these days seem to do. Also, he's absolutely right about pre-orders, honestly. What's the point of buying something before it's actually finished and playable? Call me old-fashioned, but I'd rather pay for something I can actually have.
@TrueMentorGuidingMoonlight
@TrueMentorGuidingMoonlight 6 жыл бұрын
Gretgor Exactly. Why pay for something you have no idea about? That’s what demos are for. But we live in a day and age in which demo-less games are torrented first before purchase. The problem is that not everyone follows through and actually buys after torrenting. What game devs need to learn is that you can fight piracy by offering a better deal to people who pay. It’s what GabeN talked of once.

The year is 2028, it is a dystopian civil war between the GAAAmers and the Indie Revolutionaries. You stand at a crossroad between the two. On the left, you see an hour of pre rendered cutscenes as tens of thousands of people pile their money into an array of cannons to launch at the stage. On the right, it is a blur. Half the games look unfinished, the other half are too pretentious to accept you in their club. You see a crowd of art snobs deciding whether Markola's Tragedy or Joseph's Rebirth is the most mind blowing game of the five minutes. You tread the line between the two carefully, bypassing all others, and you see a world of "innovation" Everybody is wearing full body VR suits with 360 puke buckets to mitigate sickness, everyone is using some odd gadget that only could have been created by an alien. Despite the advanced tech, all of it is to reformat older nostalgic games with new, unintuitive controls. You turn back, but the path you once took is no longer there, and the borders between the 3 are incomprehensible. You dont know how you know this, but if you were to even take one step into any of the areas, you would immediately be sucked in. You scream but no voice comes out, your heart races faster than it ever had before, you just want to leave. And then you wake up, sleeping at your desk watching the E3 2018 lineup, you are pretty sure you fell asleep after the words Smash Bros. but you aren't quite sure. You take a look at the time, it is about 2:00 AM on a Sunday night, you instinctively open a Word Document, and type in the following words ZERO PUNCTUATION: E3 2018. So E3 rolls around again... You take a look at it, remember your dream, let out a sigh of exasperation, and continue writing. EDIT: NOONE ELSE LIKE. KEEP IT AT 111.

Yahtzee is absolutely right. We need to return to the days of demos. Really good demos that demonstrate all that we need to know about a game, in a nutshell, before we pay up for the final game. Pre-ordering is such a bad idea in comparison. Edit: I don’t count alpha and beta builds as demos, because they’re nothing like the traditional demos that I’ve grown accustomed to. That is, a demo in my day would be the finalized first mission/level of the game. The keyword is “finalized,” because betas tend to still have bugs and kinks that don’t accurately represent the final product at launch. Well, in theory. There’s the issue that devs set up stupidly early deadlines that give us almost beta-quality stuff at launch, that takes months to years to fully patch. But that’s a story for another day.

pre-orders are more profitable and if you can trick the consumers into following a practice that is business favored then why would they promote a practice that is consumer favored? As Yahtzee said, we the consumers need to stop making the pre-orders first. Demos exist to establish credibility by developers who don't have any. Back in the 90's almost all the developers were comparatively unknown so releasing demos built consumer trust. Until the AAA game industry completely implodes I doubt quality demos will come back. Interestingly a lot of indie studios will still release demos because they still need to establish that consumer confidence.

Me2893me I agree with and understand what you mean. Although it’s funny, because I don’t have any trust in the AAA industry as a result of the crap they tend to pull. They’re well-known, and yet I still need a demo to know what they’re gonna do, especially when things get rushed. So a demo of the finalized first level can show me how much they care.

The funniest part is when they aren't working on online games, people seem to want nothing more than play Bethesda's awesome games with other people.

I too miss the days when games actually tried to earn my hard earned cash. When companies weren’t afraid to truly try a new style of gameplay or have an unorthodox mechanic that set the game aside from everything else, in fact back when games weren’t trying to outcopy each other, when a games style plays homage to the roots it came from. The only way we will get control of our industry again is if we can get control of ourselves.

Here, here! What we NEED! I was ecstatic to see indie games break into mainstream. I thought "it be a new era", a renaissance. Its been years now. Instead, indie games are awash in mainstream backflow. Mostly doing the same outcopy, trend seeking BS as the AAA world. (The AAA was supposed to learn from the indie! Not the other way around.) Yesteryear's limitations on hardware and software _forced_ level designers to think outside the box. Now we have 64-bit processors and ultra HD graphics. And our games are the interactive equivalent of bleached dough. Plain, tasteless, insubstantial. We have to go on a diet.

Willem yeah I had high hopes for the indie scene as well but what players and most new indie developers, I feel, forget to realize that comes with small team development is sacrifice, usually in fidelity, to keep progress moving. Alot of indie teams are usually less than 5 to 10 manned teams and most of them are programmers. Which is why most indie game tend to go the 2D route. It’s a lot easier to pay an artist to make a beautiful 2D static image that can use advantage of image parallax vs fully rendered and animated 3D assets. But again you are right, the AAA heads saw what was happening and then decided to hop on the band wagon and flooded the market, whether with publishing support of these small teams or using their highly manned teams and lots of $$$ to push out the innovation and make copy/paste of what is great. I remember when Braid and Super Meat Boy first came out and thinking what a fun twist that these games where bringing to already created mechanics and scenes throughout gaming history and adding a nice, albeit sometimes morbid take on story telling and level design. As the video said, the bloated corporate pigs are too greedy and try to force us to see better graphics with the same mechanics year in and out as innovation. It isn’t and adding in a small handful of new small features with each new iteration isn’t revolution or innovation. The fact that Ubisoft can slap the same game with new coats of paint, I’m looking at you farcry, makes me want to puke. The same can be said with COD, and BF is quickly doing the same. Companies need to follow the examples of companies like Guerrilla Games with Horizon Zero Dawn and take a leap of faith on mechanics that a company has not tried before, doesn’t matter if someone else has, try something new, make it fresh and different. Stop being afraid and stop taking the advice of greedy companies that are out to make the quickest bucks that they can.

Jake Fields I do appreciate the art of indie games. That is part of their charm. And they still explore more depth into gameplay and theme. Though, I see many independent titles attempt essentially the same things. Not always a bad thing. Maybe they could pool some of their resources more? Through some shared, independently developed/open source platform(s). I guess I hadn't thought about larger companies moving to saturate the market. I can see it. Specifically on consoles and distribution services. AAA titles certainly could do with more chutzpah. There's currently no need to develop beyond what is "safe". Which brings us back to the video. I'm not sure how or if gamers could force a complete change on our own. Maybe if indie developers put pressure on the market as well? Yes. Maybe when those AAA clones get schooled... But yes, let's not pre-purchase. Or at least only after the hype has worn off and some details are released. When we can look with a scrutinizing eye. Ollie B Of course. Yes, that must be it. Thank you. I will... remember that. :>

I say with full confidence that I've never pre-ordered a game. I completely forgot that I bought GTA V on PC "before release", but at that point I'd been waiting for it for a year and completed the story of GTA IV. I loved every GTA game as a dick around driving and shooting sandbox, so I knew I'd buy it anyway. So I bought it like 3 days before the release day in April and got the Online bonus money, because why not. Also, at that point, everyone knew it was a good game (the singleplayer, Online can fuck off) and only the optimization could turn out bad, and I was OK with GTA IV so I couldn't care less.

I haven't per-ordered a game in 10 years. The whole point of per-order used to be to secure a physical copy of the game early before the retailer ran out of stock. With digital download games, all that is moot now. So aside from bonus content per-ordering is entirely pointless in my eyes. Unless you REALLY want a physical copy which is understandable, if the game you're buying isn't just a CD that contains a digital redemption code, or worse with fallout76, an ACTUAL PIECE OF CARDBOARD.

I'm not pre-ordering anything, except Octopath Traveler on Nintendo Switch - because they released an actual fucking demo for it AND (most importantly) preordering it from Amazon gets you 20% off. And yes, I know I want this game because I played the previous demo they released and I've played through the new demo about 6 times now (starting with different characters each time).

Eh, It's a game I knew I wanted and that I wanted it hard copy. Turns out, they ran out of hard copies and are having trouble meeting demand. I'm glad I pre-ordered. That said, there isn't anything coming out soon that I'm really interested in or likely to pre-order (I think this is the first game I've pre-ordered since the Switch came out). I don't pay for unfinished games either, so I just put those on my Steam wishlist and wait for them to be finished. And if they never get finished? I didn't waste my money on an unfinished product.

It's entertaining to look back at this and see that the reason AC Odyssey has the first female protagonist of the series is because the Ubi CEO is a sexist ass, Spiderman was actually good for the reason Yahtzee was concerned it wouldn't be (it was like spiderman 2 movement), and the only reason Athem wasn't the biggest flop of the decade is because Bethesda wanted Fallout 76 to be remembered for *something*. And people still aren't totally sure what Death Stranding was about, because no one wants to claim it was the world's most in-depth walking simulator. Edit: And the fact that everyone, myself included, forgot Nioh 2 existed due to Sekiro.
