WireJacked - You may love them, or you may hate them, but I am sure that either way you have heard of them. They are some of the oldest video game clichés in history, and yet for some reason they just go on existing. Some are worse than others, but all have been around a long time and have certainly reached their expiration date. Here are 10 video game clichés that need to die.
Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.
Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
Marie Dealessandri speaks to Borislav Slavov and Gustavo Santaolalla about “the new golden age of games music”.
A famous actor from Starship Troopers has showered praise on Helldivers 2 and said he is open to the idea of playing General Brasch.
Vanishing bodies are not a cliche, it's more of a techincal issue since having bodies that never went away would drain system resources needlessly.
Ugh I hate those! Huge Turnoff.
Why can't every guy in videogames
be like chris from RE5.
He was perfect!
Maybe I'm just twisted but I hate that wrestling and boxing games won't let me beat someone to death. Isn't the cliche in sports games "realism"?
Fights on trains , a hero with a glowing arm
Just another list that confirms you gotta play Half Life 2 or the Stalker series.
No cliches. help someone out in Stalker and they might turn around and rob you or not pay you.
