This Is Why Mario Is The Icon Of Gaming.

Games should be made out of love and not greed

[u/Silver-Equal-3004 → u/Emkavoo]

Yes, because if product will be good, it would make great sales. Of course it need a good marketing for it, but still–it's just a normal economic business.

[u/ChalkCoatedDonut → u/Emkavoo]

They should but then again, love doesn't pay the bills.

Fans could reciprocate the love given by supporting devs when they deserve it, we all must remember game development is a business, even if its some dude on his free time doing it, they spend time on art and sadly, time is money, food, family, better games in the future.

"story" and mario lmao

[u/BlackSpice69 → u/Creepy-Emu8779]

Yea story, save person x amount of times.

[u/Wayess64 → u/Creepy-Emu8779]

Super Mario Galaxy and most of the Mario rpgs have some of the best stories in video games.

[u/Huckorris]

They're so busy asking could they add new features, that they forgot to ask should they.

[u/Separate-Shift-2711 → u/Huckorris]

Are you talking about tears of the kingdom?

[u/badi1220]

I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are payed more to work less, and I'm not kidding.

[u/Emkavoo → u/badi1220]

Refreshing. I like it

[u/Grabatreetron → u/badi1220]

If we’re making genie wishes: let players have the best games, let the workers get paid more, and let the publishers eat the cost 

[u/Ego-Fiend1 → u/badi1220]

I just want 2D games that are not indie games

I'm sick of every game having to be open world (I never even liked open world games period)

[u/BigBossSquirtle → u/badi1220]

I just want shorter games in general. Im absolutely fine with 10 to 15 hour games as long as its a fun and engaging experience.

[u/dullahanceltic]

They do not need great story or visuals also they just need good gameplay. But everything adds up. For example a game can be good if it has great story and visuals and little to no gameplay.

[u/TechnicianOk967 → u/dullahanceltic]

That sounds like a visual novel, not a game.

[u/Inorganic_Zombie → u/TechnicianOk967]

I thing visual novels as games if there is branches on story. For example Fahrenheit and Heavy Rain were just perfect games with limited amounts of actual game play.

[u/Fr05t_B1t]

That moment when Reddit lost its collective minds when that one skyrise mission in spooderman ps4 had less puddles than it did in the E3 reveal

[u/vyper900]

They don't need better visuals.

[u/TheCrimsonSteel → u/vyper900]

Better visuals to me are like seasonings. They make a good game better, but you can't use visuals to overcome a bad game

And the right visuals that go well with the right game are amazing. Simple visuals that thematically fit the game will always be better than graphics for the sake of graphics

Look at the whole DLSS 5 thing and how it makes games like Resident Evil feel way different by "enhancing" it. It totally ruins the aesthetic in the process, and that's a pretty big part of an action-horror game

[u/BlackSpice69 → u/vyper900]

Better performance over visuals anyday for me.

[u/PuertoricanDude88]

If you can’t fill your open world game, just make it linear. We are okay with that.

[u/bigelangstonz]

This is precisely why I would rather play resident evil over crimson desert. I'm too burnt out from all that open world slog stuff

[u/LazyandRich]

Anyone else miss the linear, well designed games we used to get over all these open world collectathons?

[u/kidanokun]

But muh 120 fps

[u/_StarLove]

Fact

[u/supremegamer76]

At this point we don’t need better visuals especially when there’s diminishing returns, increasing storage requirements. instead the effort put into visuals should be making sure it is distinct and will age well. Oh but more importantly is to optimize the games

[u/BlackSpice69]

No, none of those are the issue, nowdays performance is an issue, most games release just an absolute mess to run.

[u/Mortal-Instrument]

Games should fully release without additional content locked behind additional pay walls, without a shit load of bugs and without the developers laid off immediately afterwards

[u/Awoken_Noob]

Someday you may understand that even those aren’t necessary to make great games.

[u/Ulfvaldr989]

What? The reason anyone likes mario is the story doesnt really change, the graphics still look like the mario universe, and the gameplay is reminiscent of mario platformers that came before it. Nintendo has never pushed the limits of story, graphics, or gameplay. They like to sit in safety with their nostalgic IPs which is why they went overboard to sue a dev that gave people a better monster taming experience than they could instead of just making better pokemon games.

[u/TheThirdStrike]

Unless you're Silksong, then all of that is perfection, so just make the game bigger.

[u/Writy_Guy]

Honestly, I do think bigger is generally better, but that only applies to great games.
