Ante la "cozyficación" y la pérdida de identidad rupturista y la profesionalización d la escena y la apropiación d códigos estéticos y jugables por parte de productoras, es tiempo d borrar el concepto d lo "indie".
Es hora de lo jincho, de lo feo, de la roña. Es hora de lo UN-cool

This can then lead to problems later in a game, if you try to complicate things or build off of your systems or increase the difficulty, because the player lacks the foundational understanding of the game, and aren't prepared to make suppositions that aren't directly provided to them.

Take this too far (and many games do) and the player is no longer engaging directly with the systems of the game; they are engaging purely with the instructions they are being given, with the contract being "follow these instructions and you'll get through the game fine"

Compare that to basically every Metroidvania since the first Metroid, where "missing a save room" is a mistake every player makes *exactly once*. After that you become more methodical in checking rooms, and eventually develop a feel for "I think there was probably a save room back there I missed"

Consider the example in that Metroid article that's making the rounds. Having a voice tell you "hey, I think you might've missed something" when you bypass a save room doesn't teach the player to look out for save rooms. It teaches them to listen for instructions.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond delivers the series' trademark gameplay in spades, but I fear one very annoying addition might derail the whole thing
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has plenty of the good stuff. It also has an incredibly annoying, incredibly un-Metroid sidekick who won't shut up.

At the start of a game you are establishing what the player needs to be thinking about while playing. What are you teaching them to think about?

Something about the tutorialization/hand-holding discourse is that *what* you choose to tutorialize and *how* you choose to do it affects the game's contract with the player.

Rather than informing the player of a consideration they need to have to successfully play the game, you are *offloading* a consideration. That's one less thing the player needs to think about while playing the game.

The temperature is getting colder here in London, so this is an excellent time to remind you that every hour, the monster goes out to the weather station in London to check the temperature and sets the price for A Good Snowman is Hard to Build to match the weather.

Que Nintendo crea juegos de laboratorio con miles y miles de horas de testing siempre fue un hecho: su magia siempre fue la de David Copperfield, escondiendo grúas entre espejos. Q recurra a pistas de voz o pintura amarilla lo único que hace es quitar esos espejos, pero la artificialidad es la misma

Vertex colors are crucial to Angeline Era's unique, low-poly art style!
Much of the game's cube-based artwork is actually black and white. We then use a color palette system to create most of the game's vivid forests and towns!🌲

Todo el mundo rajando del término Metroidbrainia y no se dan cuenta de que la mayor fuerza para nombrar géneros en el videojuego y perpetuarlos en la cultura es el desprecio al propio género. Walking sim! Friendslop! Fumblecore!
