Stop caring about stories in games
Stop caring about stories in games
I'll take Carmack's advice when he actually plays through more than ten video games in his lifetime.
Carmack doesn't give a fuck about story he'd rather design quicker ways to show you triangles or send rockets into space.
Did he chime in on that kraut who put raytracing in Quake 2?
Stories in games are always shit anyways. If I wanted a story I'd read a book.
I never did, based Carmack.
Just look at Halo 4 and how 343 "delved" into the forerunner lore.
Holy fuck its so retarded.
Stop caring about games.
It's funny how all these fat retards remember John by is that quote, and not all the work he did to pioneer 3D graphics. It's fucking baffling how violently retarded the board can get.
They get all uppity about it "UH ACTUALLY CARMACK STORY IS IMPORTANT."
It's "all people remember" because it's posted every fucking day.
The point was that, if you don't have a working game with functional gameplay, the story isn't going to save it.
Can it save middling gameplay?
And thats where he is right and shouldnt be mocked
I only play games with good stories
fight me
Is the gameplay in silent hill 2 bad or is it finely tuned for the experience the developers intended? Story and gameplay can weave together in ways that aren't so clear cut.
wow, a completely irrelevant hack once said something that is now completely irrelevant
cool
Carmack is a good coder, but bad game designer.
Fuck you asshole.
Without stories in games, certain ones like Half-Life, Deus Ex etc. would be super boring.
But the best part of HL1 is the fact that it felt like one giant level and didn't smack you across the face and force you to listen to some wanker talk after an action sequence like 2
Thank you for not recognizing HL2. I always fucking hated that game.
Thought I was the only one.
this boomer hasn’t done shit since doom. i’ll take my stories tyvm
>Without stories in games, certain ones like Half-Life, Deus Ex etc. would be super boring.
Are you being serious? Half-Life has a story about as detailed and relevant to the gameplay as Doom's.
