More hate on SAO
« on: December 22, 2016, 08:29:02 pm »
Getting into indie game development myself I've been studying the theory behind what actually makes games fun to play. While normally I'm listening to developers like those behind the youtube channel "Extra Credits" I found this bit about why SAO and the other games featured in the series are bad games. While SAO was an amazing success monetarily as a manga and anime for reasons beyond the actual story, this is a true testament to how proper research can do wonders on a story with integrity.

Granted creative license is what normally blurs the lines between an MMORPG story than a story with an MMORPG story. Dot-hack is definitely a series that didn't explain it's story however looked completely playable.

SAO says it's an MMORPG but nothing about the game itself males sense. What it does try to explain there are big holes.

A few typos in there but I think I know what you mean. After watching the video some of that made no sense.

I think SAO may be trying to be the most run down MMORPG out there. But I can't get into the fact that there are more than one MMORPG and each one less interesting than the last.

I think really just playing an MMORPG would help. The video basically says it.

Or making a survey and research helps just as much as getting into it .

i agree, i do believe creative license is great. but a lot of people play MMO for different reasons. But this game just doesn't succeed in being playable. SAO is just going nowhere really as a story and as a story about MMORPGs.


i do believe that video is just a bit too harsh, but i agree with the majority of it. SAO is a game that wants to focus on the MMORPG aspects and the more it focuses on it, the more its difficult to believe SAO could ever exist.
