A Different Place

video games are a popular type of media that in 2018 has a high level of mainstream appeal.So i bring the question why are so many video game set in one or two places.we have so many games set heavenly in america and japan.even though many games set in those country are made by developers not even from Japan or America.

Although people will point out that games have been set in other country's.But the county is like a back drop that has no other uses.that could even been replaced by any other country. I've been wanting games to have a heavy forces where they are set.

This is isolating the creativity in games.As many game company have found there comfort zone in familiar environment instead of taking the plug in to new territory.

Knowing that games company have there comfort zone in Japan and America.I think the best way to encourage company to explore other places is to get them to create fictional involvement based on other country.this will get game company to use aspects of the real life country culture and landmarks.to help them get a ease idea of how to create a different place in the world.

Free Flow Combat

As a interdiction i will be talking about free flow combat and my option on it.so free flow combat is a style of combat that triple A company have adopted into a large maggoty of there hand to hand third person video game.

How free flow combat works?It a simple in design and thought but complex in excursion.As it involves the use of a lot of animations to be done properly.As to little animations will cause the combat to be stale and boring. In addition it will make the combat not that engaging. Furthermore sound is important as it give that meaty punch to every blow you give to all the enemy.

So my point of view on free flow combat is a one way idea that needs to be replaced.And dose not need improvement to be done to It.As many company ideas of improvement is complexity as the combat has lays and lay of fluff.That doesn't improve it or change it in any meaningful way.

As games like Batman Arkham Asylum and mad max show very little different better them even though .They are based on different world and were released years apart.

the fact of the mater is that free flow combat is a gimmick like super moves in fighting games.very large on spectacle and very little of substance.able to attract the casual demographic of players.

In conclusion these are my thoughts on free flow combat a very spectacle style of game play.
