Guys, I have a problem, and it's HUGE. I'm working for a game studio that is making a shooter with pvp. However...
>they want the game to be third person, which is shit because fps is the best way to do a proper shooter, third person is console faggotry and designed for casuals, fps is also better for immersion >the setting is supposed to be some sci fi/cyberpunk shit, but there's characters with magic in it, one character is literally like some sorceress space elf bitch using Sith looking powers which makes no goddamn sense in a sci fi/cyberpunk setting at all(and no, she isn't using quantum computers or some shit, it's straight up space magic) >and worse, the characters all have unique skills only they have access to, it's basically a moba shooter like faggotwatch by Blizzard or Trash Fortress 2
How do I convince these faggots to scrap this garbage and make an actual good shooter? gif related, it reminds me a lot of that space sorceress bitch they want in the game.
Space magic can be cool if done right, you're better off just accepting that. The rest is also unwinnable unless you're high up in the food chain and they aren't deep in development.
Isaiah Morales
Sounds like you're a faggot that can't work well in a team
Levi Parker
Also this. If you want to make a different game so bad then start your own studio.
Christian Martin
No, it is NOT cool. It's a fucking sci fi/cyberpunk setting, that shit needs to fuck off. I don't want to work on some goddamn faggoty ass star wars ripoff. Star wars is fucking trash, and a large part of it is that gay space magic shit that makes no sense and has no place in a setting with technology.
Also them making it third person, and a hero shooter ruins it. Hero shooters have trash balance, unlike real shooters like Quake. And third person is casualized garbage, there is not a single good skillful third person shooter in existence.
Jacob Allen
Yeah well maybe my team are a bunch of faggots that have shit ideas? How about that? The second I heard the phrase "third person shooter" I know this game is gonna be shit and flop.
Kevin Williams
Redline had a neat bit of space magic. The fact that you think Star Wars is the one example of space magic to keep coming back to makes me think you're young and untalented and don't actually have anything creative to contribute to the team. Are you some kinda QA?
Levi Ross
This is the fifth time I see someone coming up with a cool concept and pretending to be working on the dev team for that game and it's such an outrage for no reason. First it was with some Moba, then an MMO twice, then this shooter shit again. Could it be bots? Or some subtle shitposting?
Christopher Harris
>>the setting is supposed to be some sci fi/cyberpunk shit, but there's characters with magic in it, one character is literally like some sorceress space elf bitch using Sith looking powers which makes no goddamn sense in a sci fi/cyberpunk setting at all(and no, she isn't using quantum computers or some shit, it's straight up space magic) So Shadowrun? Might be cool.
Ryder Gray
Imma help you op. What you need to do is get a really strong magnet right, and then just use it on the harddrives storing all the data for the game. It'll all get corrupted and be unusable and they can't recover it back, no one will have a clue you did it, and best of all if they did a lot of work already the studio is ruined since they can't just start over. Thank me later.
Evan Phillips
The fuck is Redline? if that has space magic I bet it's shit too. The new Voltron is also shit. I watched that show and it seemed cool up until the space witch showed up. Once I saw that character waving her arms around doing hocus pocus shit I was like yup, this is shit.
Robert Cook
Shadowrun is fucking garbage. Thank god for CDPR making Cyberpunk 2077, a real cyberpunk game without stupid fantasy shit tossed in. Shadowrun is so cringe, it was a mistake. le humans turn into elves and orcs btw dragon ceos lolol
Cameron Peterson
>he hasn't seen Redline Get off this anime imageboard and get some fucking taste.
Andrew Harris
Don't worry your coworkers already know you're a soul sucking bitch to interact with.
>furshit >space magic but with sports cars >wacky over the top anime character designs
It's shit.
Jace Thompson
op is right, third person sucks for shooters. gears of war was rancid trash and failed as a competitive shooter. there's a reason quake is still alive and gears is literally dead.
Michael Barnes
>Posts a gif that makes the space magic look awesome. Truly, the concept of space magic is so retarded that any sci-fi trilogy containing it would have no cultural impact whatsoever.
Gavin Thomas
Splatoon is great and OW was gimped by being first person.
Oliver Smith
You mean the sci fi trilogy written and create dby a literal talentless hack, and later ruined by studio execs with 2 shitty sequel trilogies that completely undermined the first? The one where the latest movies are so awful and the characters so hated it's seen as a failure and a joke now? That sci fi trilogy?
Caleb Gonzalez
Yes. The one that's the first thing people think of when they think of sci-fi. The one that captured lightning in a bottle that's never been recreated since.
Matthew Turner
I remember this thread, seems like you tweaked it ever so slightly.
Kevin Ward
>star wars >sci fi
LMFAO
Jason Lopez
sci-fi and magic work together, just look at shadow run
Levi Myers
Science>>>>>>Magic. I'd like to see your gay ass magic beat a fucking railgun or a black hole bomb.
That's some low-effort bait if I've ever seen one. I guess people caught onto the DaS pasta.
Adam Lee
It's an ancient shitposter that used to pretend he worked on a fighting game with "superior limb based combat" and gradually moved onto other genres. He went through one phase of hating on grimdark settings (especially rainy cities at night) and coined the retarded term 'sickdark.' If it's not that same guy then i guess he inspired imitators. Either way I always find it amusing.
Xavier Thomas
>all these newfags that don't recognize this pasta
Magic can be beaten by not believing in it. You can't beat Science that way.
Liam Bell
>he thinks this concept sounds cool
holy shit get some taste
Austin Reed
>he doesn't know how to fly by not believing in gravity LMAO look at this fag
Christian Hill
Doesn't work that way. Science is unbendable, and unbreakable. It destroys magic. Think of what happened to Tinkerbell when people stopped believing in Magic. Or that elf guy's army in Hellboy 2. Science trumped magic HARD.
Tyler Davis
There's literally nothing wrong with any of this Your idea would probably make a massive failure and tank the company desu it's 2019 not 1999 things change
Evan Morgan
>Your idea would probably make a massive failure and tank the company desu
How would my idea tank the company? First person shooters have stood the test of time, turd person has failed. Gears of War is DEAD dude.
Nolan Diaz
You genuinely do not deserve to be treated like a human.
