That being said, II'm not completely against a save feature even if my past advocation implied so. You were even able to articulate it in such a way that I wouldn't have been nearly as close to the point as you. I was probably going to tell Liam roughly the same you said here, but you beat me too it. And, then, you have a completely different game. The developer has to expect the player to use the tools given to them. But it should be treated as a cheat.Īnd what does the developer do in terms of balance? If they allow save scumming, then 95% of the players are going to use it, and then wouldn't the developer want to balance the game for those people? The developer can't design the game around a playstyle that requires the player to self-impose rules. If you hide the mechanic as a cheat, or in the developer console, then that is fine. I think it is bad design to force the player to self-impose rules in order to make a game feel like a game, and dangle cheats in front of their face. Or there is a 'skip level' option everytime you die. By this logic, the developers could, along with a standard pistol, give you weapon in the very beginning of the game that instantly kills everything in the level and has ammo.if you don't like having this extremely overpowered weapon, then just restrain yourself from using it. I disagree with the sentiment that all games shoudl have saving mechanics, and those who don't like them should just restrain themselves from using them. If the save and quit system does get added, then I think we can increase the number of levels. If they do, then they quit, and the save is deleted once they reload. If they don't save and quit, then there is no save. The player gets the option to 'Save and Quit' between levels. I think it should be done in the same way as Heavy Bullets. If you don't delete it after loading, then someone could quit the game because they failed a 'Gamble' card, or because they did badly and lost most of their health before a boss fight, or something like that. Messaggio originale di LINUX Liam:In a single player game does it matter what people do with their saved games though? Modding and playing around should be encouraged no? The effort is better spent improving the game in my opinion, rather doing something that could potentially be hurting it. Work that I just don't think is worth it for what this game is. Not too mention, one of the developers said implementing a save system out of nowhere would take a lot of work. Because this is a perma-death environment. Heck, saving could even risk hurting the intergrity of the game as a whole, besides just hurting the individual's experience here, like I've explained it could. He might be spelling his own doom just because he took advantage of a feature in the game. He could actually be hurting his own experience with the game just because of saving. If someone saves inbetween the fourth and fifth floor, and then gets off for a few hours or even longer, it is like he is almost setting himself up for failure. You wouldn't stand nearly as much of a chance then.

You don't want to be dropped off in the hardest part out of the blue.

The 5th floor allows for very few mistakes and often at times can have rooms full of a hail of attacks that are almost unavoidable.

This is sink or swim here, and to help you they throw you in the shallow end first. It's not as though you get thrown in the deep end of the pool right away. The skill based part being my entire point here. At least that's my opinion on the matter. Ziggurat just isn't casual enough to fit the only play 10 or 20 minutes here and there. The game feels like it has been spoiled by the lack of the feature. You wouldn't load dota up for a quick 10-20 fest like you could in Ziggurat. Dota is an online competitive match based game. Messaggio originale di LINUX Liam:Dota is completely different.
