Stock features feel like stock features.

For anything that touches a unique design element for a game, the built-in version isn't going to be adequate.

Additionally a lot of built-in features are not past demo quality and need a lot more work to be shippable.

I would definitely say Fatal Frame games are 'shooters' while 'Umurangi Generation' is an immersive sim, with 'Pokemon Snap' being in-between.

Technically if your video game has visuals you're always shooting a camera.

The planet Jupiter with its cloud bands seen in shades of pink, rusty red, blue, and purple. The Great Red Spot is a deep navy blue, surrounded by bands and swirls of pink, and light blue.

The first thing that comes to mind is DotA2 but that's older than 10 years. I guess streaming reduced the desire for it?

I see some connections to path that filmmaking has taken when the 'Studio System' failed and looking at how major AAA+ game publishers are currently all on the precipice of decline.

I've been writing code since the 80s and the part where you mess up and then figure it out is the entire point.

It's a basic fundamental part of being alive. To see some boldly brag about 'abstracting away' that part of life is grotesque.

Do you see any connection/hypocrisy between Epic raising the vBucks price 7.5-20% and their current battles against 30% platform fees from console/Steam?

After playing ~5500 games the biggest that I've learned is that ANYTHING design/mechanically will work and be compelling, *if* the creator(s) are willing to commit to the bit.

The issue has never been the volume of code being generated, in many cases it was too much being written.

Even if GenAI was viable (doubt) it won't solve the actual issues and problems faced by product development.

When it comes to live services games people are treating them like a 'sprint' and pulling the plug in weeks when they should recognize they are more of a...um...err... [long amount of running thing]
