Games sometimes worry me.

Post » Tue Dec 06, 2011 5:50 am

I have a well known ability to make up insane connections which while functional are wrong. We should all just understand this before i go any farther.

I worry when a game seems to be killing its creators. Or even worse having US do it. Im playing through the latest Squenix incarnation of FF4 and I just cant help to think...These people are literally going to make me kill the old producers. Its like theyve chosen to stay just shy of actually replacing the posted news letters with Wanted: Hironobu Sakaguchi posters in all the bars/taverns/inn/wtf. I cant be certain but im pretty certain this game is going to have me killing some final boss that is in reality my poorly veiled hopes and dreams as a child.

He is saying, in a hard to understand way, that the new producers hate the old so much that the final bosses in games are looking like the old producers for games.

Can you link to an example of this in a game?

The OP gave the example of Final Fantasy 4, in which the final boss was http://www.videogamesprites.net/FinalFantasy4/Bosses/Zeromus2.gif, if I'm not mistaken. I doubt that even remotely resembles any producers... :unsure:

I think what he's trying to say is that games aren't staying true to their origins, but it's anybodies guess, really.

I did look into OP's "example", but I didn't see any relation to the boss and the producers. It's true games don't stay true to their origins, that's how games evolve.

This thread just killed a kitten with its non-sensical (sp?) rambling.

Op, how do you feel now? ;)

um, actual people don't die if you kill them in a game (deathmatches would likely be outlawed)
