we need a rework to the early parts of the story and cutscenes to get them up to standard (vetex redo the ravenna beach cutscene please why does our character just rotate and snap into place) and just a bit of polishing, bug fixes, and fleshing out of a few systems
but it’s definitely far from unsalvageable like some of these doomposters seem to believe
anyway, the game is still really fun
vetex (probably) tries to show a story, draw us closer to the end of it as soon as possible
so we could later enjoy it when he would polish it
if you want to know why he just didnt kept it in closed development
ask yourself why, consider budget, community, public feedback, etc. etc.
you can always play later
maybe vetex might consider to hire someone to polish early storyline and gameplay someday
why u deleted it, zerker cant kill omens lel
if one man can do it m1s only no shot no axe slash or what not, it’s possible 
Idk, I feel like there will be a person to get me wrong, since I have no desire to elaborate that there are good things about the game too, but we should not sugarcoat flaws if we want them to be fixed.
wrong
correct
Educate yourself on the video game industry instead of smoking that pack of cope-flavoured tobacco that you’re all so addicted to, a game’s “concept” (design) lies in its mechanics, a game’s “execution” (development) lies in its code and assets.
No, the concept is not any good. If the game isn’t good, the concept can’t be either.
Yes, the execution is underwhelming (if we put it lightly). If the game doesn’t run well, the execution isn’t either.
Conclusion: This topic is only low-level aggro for newbie communicators to fall for. Fortunately for OP, that is approximately thirty to fourty percents of this community (conservative estimate).
yeah sure mister fancy words, keep telling yourself that
Arguing semantics does no good for anyone.
Stop being an asshole and pretending you don’t know what they mean to flex your supposed messiah of game design muscles.
Yes, I can understand what they mean, but what they it is is utter nonsense.
There is no “The game is shit, but the concept is so good!” Because the concept doesn’t matter in the making of a video game, what does is its design and plan.
What you’re referring to as a ‘concept’ is merely the ‘general idea of a game’, not what matters; the design.
For comparison, if this were about writing, this ‘concept’ would only amount to the worthless, replaceable, core idea. It doesn’t matter if the theme is about a demi-god’s ruin or a human’s rise to power, if you don’t know how to write, tell a story, pace it well, detail it just right, use the best words are the best place and make the reader feel anything, the ‘concept’ will be utterly worthless.
In the game industry, you do not pitch a broad and vague ‘concept’ like so, you pitch a design, a plan, mechanics so to speak. If necessary, you talk of their appeal, the psychology behind it, how you have the schematics of a good game, not the idea of one—because everyone can have an idea of a ‘good game’, not everyone can design a good one.
So please, do explain how this is arguing semantics, how what they mean is correct, how a ‘concept’ would differ from what I’ve established and how Arcane Odyssey’s in particular is any good when it only amounts to “Amnesiac boy saves the world from evil organisation by sailing across the sea and killing people”.
For you see, unlike a certain, would-be existence, I am open to proven truths—for my heart is not my preferred tool of reason.
Anyone thinking of engaging with this dumbass, please read through this topic first to see the level of idiocy we’re dealing with
Anyone thinking of engaging with this harassment, please do read through all of this split topic’s replies to see the level of sheer hatred, bigotry and disingenuousness that you are dealing with.
good god you cannot get to the point of anything without a 5-paragraph essay that reeks of contempt and arrogance.
Boohoo, cry about it. Weep, tear up, bawl your eyes out.
I’d rather use each and every one of my posts as a mean to convey my point with utmost precision to any and all that are willing to understand it.
If you get each axiom quickly, good for you, now you can make the choice to skip the parts that are for the slower ones. Just stop complaining about it and actually start arguing instead of avoiding it like the plague.
wow finally a normal human response to something.
I haven’t seen one of those from you since you got brainwashed.
anddd the message has quintupled in size for no reason.
done tried that, you’re too far up your own ass and sincerely believe you’re the smartest guy in whatever room you walk in.
best I can do is point that out for anyone else that’d otherwise make the same mistakes I did.
(trying to reason with somebody that let themselves get brainwashed via youtube videos)
hell, I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt that one time and you just spat on me and doubled down. why would I even try with you?
anyways buh bye.
Oh no! I was brainwashed by Masahiro Sakurai, an industry veteran known across the world for being the director of the Kirby and Super Smash Brothers series. How calamitous!
Or maybe you could be referring to the Game Developers’ Conference, which as its name implies, is the biggest conference of game developers around the world and revolves around game design and development workflows. This is so much worse!
If you had any good will, you’d be arguing my way out of what you call ‘brainwashing’, but you don’t. You’re only proving yourself to be intolerant to difference, justifying it similarly to homophobes.
Conclusion: This is personal aggro targetting me, likely for the sake of portraying me as a fool so that the readers do not give a single thought onto this matter and blindly follow the herd.
don’t really care who, they made you an arrogant idiot.
