Message: [QUOTE="valosagutas, post: 211097, member: 77791"] I keep hearing video game developers even say "forget about the game we developed long time ago, it been decades, no point to be a fan" even if it's their own game. But they are not just video game developer, they are professional video game developer. It means they only care about the money they earn, because of it they actually don't release video games they want, despite they think "it was fun to develop and is a good game". Most video game companies cannot understand fans at all, they don't care anymore because there is a good reason for it. They get angry when their new video games compared to their video game that released 30 years ago. It makes them intentionally develop "bad" games that intentionally lacks content anymore. Perhaps because of it we can never see soup of features games like Dark Cloud 2 or highly detailed varied games like Rogue Galaxy. Just an example. After video game industry fell into coma around 2012, indie video game industry dropped atomic bomb because people started to ignore AAA games and bought simple but fun games. It was out cry of gamers' need for games, not BS programs. Still to this day indie video game industry and mod scene for video games are way important than AAA video game industry. Bethesda knows it therefore they release moddable games, otherwise their game itself would only be worth as a digital BS. And then Witcher 3 released. Success of Witcher 3 mainly because it was developed by fans of Witcher. Witcher is a popular book for a long time and it also had additional fans from previous Witcher games. So when a developer said "we have no idea how we can fill the game map with all the ideas we have" or something I knew it would be legendary lol. Since then, video game industry was temporarily awake when Witcher 3 was dropped but then it died for good due to cancer Witcher 3-clone games and video games shifted into "interactive Netflix" games. Perhaps since then only significant video game was Baldur's Gate 3. But I don't think even their respective developers can comprehend why their games were successful and why people are fans of these games. Existence of Cyberpunk 2077 showed CDPR had no skill issue, they just didn't care what they doing. If they had understood why Witcher 3 liked and understand why fans loved Witcher 3 they wouldn't make the game's story short and fill it with meaningless Ubisoft BS content lol. In the end as a gamer Cyberpunk 2077 is a boring buggy program, but if you are a person who loves to watch stuff constantly can like the "game" which I don't (I only watch like 2 movies per year, same logic for anything I watch, so no wonder I ignore any watching simulator barely game programs lol). After Witcher 4 released it won't be liked as much as Witcher 3. It will be heavily compared to Witcher 3 and possibly bashed for it seems like new Sony games like new generation God of War and Uncharted. This is high probability I see but of course who knows? And then CDPR will say "Witcher 3 was a bad game, buy Witcher 4 instead" lololol. Yes. What some people have no idea of is mostly even official English and whatnot translations of Japanese video games are very bad. They can even change the whole conversation and come up with situations that don't actually exist in the games lololol. Yes, if a game doesn't have a significant story you care it won't matter how the translator wrote their own story instead lol, but sometimes it bothers me a lot because story and conversations doesn't make sense. Learning a language will increase your satisfaction with the original media and thus you won't miss out on possible entertainment. Sometimes translation is so bad I cannot have fun with it. In that context learning languages does matter. [/QUOTE]
