Doesn't matter. These games have to be designed to be playable with only a touchscreen, so they won't be comparable to PC or console games. This is just an attempt to fix the monetization model for mobileshit to make it less cancerous.

Well, the Apple fanboys will eat it up, I have no doubt about that.

It's pretty funny how everyone expected the usual suspects like MS, Nintendo or Sony to make a move like this, and then Apple and Jewgle swoop in one after another and usher in cancer the likes of which the industry has never seen before.

All in all, everything depends on whether those two gambits turn out to be profitable.

I look forward to watching the industry burn.

>>16287976

Only developers whose life purpose is to fuck over their customers will choose Stadia and whatever other stream service as their main and only platform. Good developers, that is those who actually care about videogames, understand that streaming-only is counter to preserving games, as either an art-form or entertainment, for the future and will not go that route since they want the fruits of their labor to persist and be remebered/enjoyed until the end of times.

This will only be relevant for indie-shit and soul-less AAA jewery, for they are the only ones who will be allowed into these ecosystems. Real developers will stick to developing games for real platforms, and you may say that those will be few, but at least I will then know who actually gives a fuck about this media and can then simply ignore the jews and their golems since I won't be even be able to consume their shit, which I think is a plus.

That's what I think, but who knows if the entire industry will go to shit and even good developers will get dragged into the shitter by corporate fucks.


2762e5  No.16288016

And there we fucking go.

The only hope left is that developers make far more shekels off of full-priced games than subscription services. It's down to relying on developers being greedy kikes to save what's left of this industry.

I don't think it's worth saving.

real games on real consoles will not make as much money as iGames and stadia games; since there are more people on the apple and google consoles, theres more money to be made because they love spending money on obvious pay2win traps.

so why, as a dev, would you spend thousands of hours toiling away on a masterpiece thatll sell for 60 dollars a copy that only niche fans will buy when you can make a form over function piece of crap Click to make Harambe Dab game and add payment options of 1 million clicks and 1 billion clicks etc for 10 and 100 dollars each respectively, and to nobodys surprise the iGame/stadia casual faggots actually hork that shit down like chronically starved commieshit gulag prisoners in front of a barbecue meat buffet?

The best way to let them I'm technically part of that sphere too, I guess is to let the industry die. Go back to the 80's home computer scene, where hobbyists could send their floppies in to small publishers and have their games released, on equal footing with any other game. If big games committed suicide like this, the only games available for those who don't want to stream them will be hobbyist games. The only thing that mattered was word of mouth, really.

That doesn't seem to be what this is as users are able to play offline. Apple's service is a CURATED collection of exclusive games you subscribe to. Essentially, they are the cancerous titles nobody wants to play that would never sell on their own. Likely to be mixed with a small number of higher quality exclusives to bait normalfags into paying for the service.

It becomes overfilled, causing development to be a lottery system effectively.

Remember when everybody was trying to jump into mobile and most of them were getting burned? Oversaturation is a real bitch.

WoW dominated MMOs for a decade and every single dev tried to make the next WoW killer without sense or wisdom, bankrupting themselves again and again. In the mobile games market in it's current state right now there is an even more extreme situation where about 10 companies gain tons of cash while everyone else can expect to make bank on about $40-60 tops. /agdg/? last time anyone released a game on steam they made $30 because it was part of a bundle and died before it could receive any light. This is going to be more of the same, no foresight and every single one of those devs and publishers will simply throw money into a sink hole and everyone else will follow suite because it's the current trail of money.

I'm biased I'm developing a free game for /v/ in my spare time, but I honestly believe this to be true. Its the last resort for games made by people who genuinely like gamedev. I've seen projects from /agdg/ that are 10 times more creative then what the current industry produces. Even by their simplicity. Its mindboggling.

As an addendum I recently watched the latest montage trailers for comiket Doujin games just out of curiousity. I felt a sense of wierd excitement I haven't felt for a long time. These people deserve your attention. They might be small scale projects, but they have a certain element of human quality many mainstream productions lack.

sorry about the triple post

I think the other Anon is right that as long as portable gaming like on phones exists, stream only bs wont be fully achievable. Especially with everyone not always being at home with their supposed stream only DRM boxes. Outdoor convenience is still big. The Switch and mobile gayming revenue recently surpassing PC gaming solidifies this.

>don't necessarily expect AAA gaming

I wouldn't want it.

But one of my serious concerns about /agdg/ is the complete and utter lack of trained artfags who know what they're doing.

One of the things that I enjoy about games are good and consistent aesthetics.

Hell, even the Japs manage to, for the most part, have completely retarded (read: loud and obnoxious for the sake of individuality) character designs that blend into the setting.

This is fine. Modern vidya has long since been sentenced to death and it's time to accept that it is 100% normalfag-driven from here on out. There are decades worth of good vidya from the past and loads of fun mods to play on top of that. Not even blackpilling I just know this shit isn't gonna get any better but at least we have tons of stuff to fall back on

>Steam takes 30% from the sales

Publishers took 70% of revenue in comparison, Satan. Placing titles on store shelves ain't free. Just because it is on the shelf doesn't mean people will buy it. Steam provides a store page, handles transactions, refunds, tax collection and reporting, and offers support features. Developers get money deposited into their account.

>steam will do absolutely nothing to sell their games

Marketing is your responsibility. Steam gets a cut and has no incentive to promote games that people do not buy.

It has to be fun in spite of you knowing the ins and outs. In fact, the development should be half the fun in the first place. For me, instead of thinking an idea is cool upon seeing it, I think the idea is cool once I come up with it.

They already have been gobbling up this shit for years. The mobile "vidya" market directly competes with PC and consoles combined. You have the zoomer retards abusing daddy's credit card in addictive (((freemium))) cashgrabs, and then you have the lazy millennial plebs who can't be assed to play a traditional game, invest time and enjoy it. They beg for instant gratification and the shallow mobile shit offers exactly that, if you have the coin of course. All of this stupid behavior reinforces the business decision of big studios going mobile and investing minimum effort, and perfectly sets a precedent, that traditional vidya isn't financially viable anymore, thus contributing to this downward spiral of shitty cashgrabs even further. The only quality in recent years seems to come from some passionate indie devs, but they're also slowly catching up on the big shekel train, as proven by the recent Chinkcent exclusivity sponsorship.

>>16287961

>why is this bad

It incentivizes to drop quality and go for the path with the lowest resistance to someone's cash. The result is mtx riddled Clash and Farmville clones.

>>16287978

You attest these indies with too much idealism. The iDiot ecosystem is a perfect toolset to minimize effort while maximizing profit.

>>16288084

The result of peddling overpriced hardware for over a decade. There's not a single legitimate reason to buy Apple products. Everything they offer comes from competitors in at least the same or higher quality. Nobody would cry if they went out of business, not even the iZealots, that have an attention span of a fly and jump on the next big fad.
