Sometimes, the "game design" section can even be completely gone, replaced by all the smaller design teams. Take a look at the credits of a few big games and you might find out that apart from the "game design" section there can be things like "combat system design", "quest design" and many others. Nowadays however, in biggest productions, roles are extremely divided and designers get their own pieces of the pie. Setting the rules of Tetris equals creating Tetris. Games didn't have much story, they were made by small teams. In the "good old days" it pretty much meant that he's creating a game. What is it that the game designer actually does in gamedev?Ī game designer creates a set of rules for a game. It is only fair that the game designer designs games! Well, in AAA industry, that logic leads to a bitter disappointment. Sounds logical, doesn't it? A car salesman sells cars.
The common desire to be the designer comes from the basic oversimplification that a game designer designs games. Well, they've just been playing Mario and Zelda over and over for the last 30 years :P X-boxers would die to go on a Journey or to play Demon's Souls, but instead they embrace Fable. Most PS gamers loathe not being able to play Halo, so they boast about the God of War.
#EVOLAND 2 MAMMOTH PUZZLE PC#
If you are a PC gamer and can't play The Last of Us or Gears of War, so you will loudly glorify Starcraft 2 on your way to BlizzCon. The exclusives from the other gaming platform are something that all the fanboys secretly crave. The only actual difference between platforms are the exclusives. Arguing which one of the two most popular controllers is better when the biggest difference is where the D-pad is? Seriously, guys - go find yourselves a real problem instead of running around in a wizard hat, forming childish alliances. I mean - most of the platforms are similarly attractive.
These games - exclusives - are in my opinion the very core of the fanboy phenomenon. Even as an adult I am reluctant to buy a new console just to play a few games that interest me and are not available on other platforms. Like the heroes of South Park, the majority of kids have to choose only one gaming platform.
