alanschu Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I just hope Wright won't pull a Black&White on us... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why would he? Has Will Wright ever really failed to deliver? He's not Peter Moleneaux. I'm not a huge Sims fan, but I still recognize its gaming brilliance. This is just the next step. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Next step? NEXT STEP??? This is more like a big fat giant leap forward in the space time continuum (w00t) Imagine this next step applied to a RPG!

metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 The scope of the game is truly breathtaking ... not sure if it will work, nor if it will be "fun" in the traditional sense, but it certainly is one I'm going to get: gives a whole new meaning to "god game".

mkreku Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) The sick thing is that I'm already sitting here fantasizing about how my creature designs will look like, just to make them smarter, faster and deadlier than anyone elses. It doesn't happen often that I sit and think about unreleased games, that's for sure. Edit: Forgot an M. Edited March 2, 2006 by mkreku Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Edit: Forgot an M. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm thinking more of this procedural system/programming/technology applied to other types of games like RPGs and FPSs. Correct me if I'm wrong but Spore, even in its current state, is a major breakthrough. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleCookiee Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Ah, but new genre-type games can no longer be created due to the current market-system forcing devs to specilize on one type of game and rendering them unable to produce another type of game!!!

Darque Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Finally watched the whole video... looks interesting, if a bit simplistic. Reminds me of EVO for the SNES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 IMO it only looks simplistic in the earlier stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 It's breathtaking scope; I don't know how you can call it simplistic: everything from the microscopic life in a drop of water all the way up to galaxies of star systems!

metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Most impressive is the "toolbox" motif, that is reproduced for different game phases (organism, city, ufo, etc). That, and the fact that it is populating the multiverse with the organisms and civilizations from others, taken from online. That's pretty epic, right there. Er ... Amongst the epic qualities are ...
