Early early access - Do we need a Soulslike genre?
🕑 Added 2017-07-09 12:30:56 +0000 UTC Hi top tier supporters!So, I’ve been working on this video for a while now and I’d like to get your thoughts before I finish it.
As such, this is an early version with no music, some awkward transitions, some missing footage and sound effects, no game names in the corner, and various other issues.
If you’d prefer to watch GMTK as a finished product, just wait a few days!
The video will be titled something like “Do we need a Soulslike genre”, and is looking at how turning games into genres can have a stifling effect on games.
Any feedback is appreciated but the main thing I’m after is areas that aren’t super clear, or arguments against my points, or things I may be overlooking. I’d rather catch them early and provide answers in the video itself, rather than get these as questions in the comments after the video goes live.
Obviously, I will expect a spirited discussion in the comments - but I’d rather my position was made as clear as possible so we can all start the conversation on the same page.
But yeah. lemme know what you think and I’ll consider all your ideas. I also have some concerns of my own, and so if they get validated then... well, I'll go from there :)
