Why did Todd do this? He was seriously inconsiderate of indie games by shadow dropping Oblivion… this just doesn’t sit well with me.
Why did Todd do this...
No one was going to buy your pixelshit
make a good fucking game and shut your trap
gamers are cattle
Moo
Todd is an expert scammer, and Bethesdadrones are demonstrably the dumbed audience ever.
Oblivion invalidates that claim.
Go fuck yourself. You have no idea what effort goes in to releasing indie titles. Fuck all the way off
"shadow drop" which had been leaked and shilled last few months.
shadow drop
implying the "leaks" being spread everywhere wasn't the marketing campaign
if you guys didnt know, the game uses unreal engine 5.2 instead of 5.5. you can check the game exe in windows by right clicking it.
this means the game was in dev since over 2 years ago.
our indie pixel rougelite metroidvania open world survival crafting base building deck builder didn't sell
it's oblivions fault
Any time some indie dev bitches like this their game always ends up being some bottom of the barrel crap that wouldn't have sold regardless of the circumstances, so I'm going to assume that's the case here as well.
Good morning, saar!
It's amazing how a static picture can radiate so much butthurt.
Who gives a shit?
FPBP.
SEETHING Indiod that can't understand nobody was going to buy their LITERALLY WHO!? game, Oblivion or not.
make a good game and you wont be steamrolled
Based
rougelite metroidvania open world survival crafting base building deck builder
I spend at least 10 minutes every other day blacklisting these titles on the STEAM store page. Who the fuck is buying this slop? Seriously? They're fucking endless.
If Oblivion being remastered makes you feel your indie game is going to fail, your indie game is probably just shit. Sucks to suck.
yet literally nobody else on the market can create a game like oblivion or skyrim, despite them being infinite money hacks
Blacklist the tags instead
Thoughts about the removal of gender and the addition of "body type 1" and "body type 2"?
If gaymers would play 2 versions of Bolivian, they'll play 3
dumb virtue signal shit that's invalidated by all of the other "gendered" stuff in the game. Kill all trannies.
Since they removed gender there should be no problem with both 1 and 2 being topless right?
You have no idea what effort goes in to releasing indie titles
you mean releasing games into early access and never actually finishing them :O
anyone have the gigachad todd howard meme with the caption saying "i liked that one, remake it"
I don't blacklist many tags, because there's sometimes titles that have those, simply because there's one small aspect snuck in there that fits, or it falls into another genre. Like Iron Harvest has "Base building", tons of RPG's have "Open World", and Metro 2033 has "Survival", along with a bunch of survival horrors. The only fool-proof tags I have blacklisted are visual novel and MMORPG
I'm genuinely curious: Why do you guys think video game studios are doing stuff like this? The world has kinda moved on from the height of "SJW tranny'ism" of the late 2010s and early 2020s. So why are they still doing this? That change hardly appeals to anyone?
It's a dumb trend that they're following. You can tell it's a trend because they kept in the stupid sexy flame atronach's.
You are not entitled to sales
No one has to give your shitty indie pixel/soi poly/faux retro slop the time of day
Your product simply wasn't compelling enough to compete with a remaster of a 20 year old game.
Instead of taking the loss gracefully, reflecting on what you could have done better (namely, not make boring, trite factory line faux retro slop) you whine on socials crying about how it's someone else's fault your shitty game didn't sell
Sounds like cope. There have been numerous examples of indie games making waves from word of mouth alone if they are appealing enough. But also being an indie studio doesn't mean you're entitled to preferential treatment.
SJW tranny'ism
they still make up the majority of devs.
yeah my cock goes into indie devs asshole lmao
It's either:
maybe someone who would never even play this game will play it now
we'll do this now to avoid a shit storm later
we'll add in drama to get our game noticed and bring in more players
Maybe a combonation
No they don't.
Damn, if it's so easy, maybe you should just copy them.
Yes, they do. Hence why the Type 1/2 shit is still in games.
and they still have best rpgs in the market
Noooo how dare you make us compete with you
Make better games and people might buy them over a reskin of something from 20 years ago
Both the indieshit and the oblivion remake are trannyshit. There I said it.
No, you're just a stupid retard nigger faggot. It's in games as a gambit to appease everyone through least resistance. Just like how I could call every video game developer nazis because the swastika is in Call of Duty WW2. It's a dumb argument.
This is a marketing thread
Anon, you are not getting rid of these fucks from western gamedev ever
most of these devs are based out of turboleftist shitholes on the west coast, those ones are never going away, their mentality is never going away unless it's outright criminalized
based Godd dabbing on them commies
Nice attempt at gaslighting. You lost.
It’s because the devs are trannies or have trannies in their general vicinity on the dev team and the trannies are very vocal that the existence of male/female is offensive to them. So imagine you are making your game creator and you add the obvious male/female labels. A tranny comes along and demands that it’s changed. You can go against the tranny and get yourself tarred as a Grummz-adjacent Nazi chud or you can follow xirs orders and make it heckin inclusive
Nobody else on the market has a dedicated fan base that is completely willing to forgive any bugs and fix the game for them for free.
SOMEONE THINK ABOUT THE INDIE RETARDS PLEASE!!!!
The invisible hand of the free market is the great decider cŭck dev. Make better games lol.
No it isn't you retarded faggot. The Lords of the Fallen devs caught shit from the usual crowd for removing Type1/2 shit and going back to male/female. And who the fuck does type1/2 shit even appease except mentally ill people? The majority of game devs put this shit in by their own volition.
What do you think the sales numbers are? Literally everyone I know that play video gaymes is playing Oblivion, haven't seen anything like that since probably Halo 3 or Reach.
But is there any evidence of this in the case of this game? Like, almost every single game released nowadays does this. The guys who made the Oblivion remake seem to be a bunch of eastern europeans, not westoids.
I read something about an organization that owns all the publishers (?) that has a stated policy that all games released by its publishers must remove gender and include body type 1/2
Could that be it?
WOW BASED I LOVE THE CORPORATION NOW
UNDISCLOSED INDIETRANNIES SEETHING
DISCLOSED CORPOTRANSWOMEN STAY WINNING
Eastern Europeans are westoids, the hell are you smoking. Anyways, Virtuous has many studios all over the world, not sure which one made the Remake, but all it takes is a call from someone at MS or Bethesda to get body type shit in the game.
If they were westoids they wouldn't be eastern. Literally in the name you dense moron.
Bro, they are both trannies. It's a tranny on tranny world out there.
Maybe make an original game instead of remastering other people's games for free?
Obsiditrannies just keep taking L after L. Starting to think NV was only good because based Bethesda held them to some standards.
"Westoid" refers to anything outside of asia you retard.
If they were west THEY'D BE WESTERN NOT EASTERN
completely willing to forgive any bugs
People haven't done this for Bethesda in years at this point, if anything they heavily exaggerate how buggy their games are while turning a blind eye to those in supposedly better RPGs
This remaster is the first time in ages general internet sentiment surrounding a BGS release hasn't been kneejerk hatred, and even then it's still occasionally being subject to doublethink suggesting that they simultaneously weren't involved with its development and are also somehow to blame for any of its problems
They're west of asia you moron.
DUURRRR I DON'T KNOW EAST AND WEST HURRR I'M RETARDED HURRR INSTEAD OF READING I GONNA TRY TO CHANGE DEFINITIONS TO MY WILL HURRR I'M DUH WORDOMANCER GGGGUUURURRRR *poops self* UH OH MUMMY I DID IT AGAIN
Literally in the fucking name. If they're eastern THEY'RE EASTERN it's not that fucking hard to understand. Go back to Anon Babble you illiterate dumbass.
No need to sperg out, just accept the fact that you're wrong.
fucking indyans man.
Blueprints already got its two weeks of fotm indie game exposure
OMG what a whiny little shit... I looked up his game it's a fucking PS2-style Silent Hill retro horror game, zzzzzzzz
The arrogance to think your 15 dollar charged game that I wouldn't give you 20 cents and a boot in the shins for is competing with Oblivion is astounding.
Oblivion Shadow dropping should have the same effect as a fart in a hurricane on the sales of Date Everything and Slay the Spire 2.
The leaks were almost everywhere.
I hate Bethesda and whiny cuck indie devs, so I don't know how to feel about this. I think I choose to feel happy that some devs will be financially ruined, even if the Todd's latest SKU of his RPG for Madden players had nothing to do with it. Hopefully some indie devs lose their houses. Tough fucking luck.
So they are like western GameFreak?
Goood, fuck Indieots
I know the effort of releasing an indie title and I can tell you this guy is a complete dork lmao
push marketer seething at the effortlessly based pull marketer a tales old as time
Because nobody else makes games like Bethesda. Simple as.
The devs for Lords of the Fallen are being laughed at for being the first retards who made it so blatantly pandering to a certain demographic just to make their game relevant. The game bombed because its obtuse not because of the retarded gender shit. You can't pull a "players we hear your plea" when nobody said anything because your game is not relevant. Only people who get their news from twitter saw that as a "win"
volunteer
modding an old existing title
maybe they should have spent multiple years of their life creating something new instead of just modding something for FREE
it is FREE right? why else would they care? patreon bux or something? if anything this is just free publicity since everyone is crying about it. I literally haven't heard about skyblivion until 2 days ago
No one gives a shit.
Typed up all that irrelevant shit, why?
It is relevant because the "usual suspects" didn't say anything to the devs. The did it to get relevant.
So? The devs made polls on twitter asking what players wanted and the usual suspects got upset to the point that they banned the CEO from the game's leddit .
I am appalled by how short sighted you are. Yes the grass is green, ignore the house burning in the background. I'll go play something
Devs ask players want they want
Poll it
Devs implement poll results in the game's most recent update
Man, I have no idea what you're on about, I can only assume that you're just another one of the butthurt usual suspects here to vent.
WTF IS THE INDIE TITLE???
LOWER THE GATES!
I got fucked the hardest. Same type of game except procgen. Not a complete loss though, Steam Next Fest is soon and after the hype does down.
You now remember when EA shadow dropped the Command & Conquer remasters, ruining an indie puzzle game about potions. Was it a puzzle game?
if people are prepared to pay 60 or whatever us dollars for a remaster of a very old game it's probably unlikely they'll play the indie game
IGN writer is friends with indie dev, writes fluff piece about their shit game no body every heard of
there's your real headline. fuck off.
Todd… how could you do this…
Post Trauma sucked, people just don't want to play as an overweight, middle aged janitor. A loser!
Playing as a woman would be preferable to that, even.
Downloaded the demo, thanks anon. I actually like proc-gen RPGs. I'm still trying to scratch my itch for a good 3D traditional roguelike.
Todd always gets what he wants, he is the chess club grand champion.
compare this whiny loser to this other indie dev, who practically throws herself a parade over getting 100 sales.
Almost like money doesn't buy happiness, or something.
Is this the same as when that whore complained that EA shadowdropped the C&C remasters on Steam at the same time she released her game? lel
naming a game after a city and the most famous German boardgame company
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I will be reporting it promptly
Using the latest version of software is retarded. Always use the last stable version or the one with the most documentation
You're a retard if you focus your life into being a successful indie dev. It's a lot more similar to saying "I'm going to become a famous artist or streamer" than you realize.
There are 300 new indie games that fail to sell more than 100 copies every month. Your game you blew 3 years of your life to make will probably see the same fate.
when you carefully min-max your protagonist's breast size to ensure you get the most possible sales while keeping the cup size as low as possible to keep investors happy.
and then, without warning, a game just up and releases with demons who have tits the size of melons
It's inconsiderate and upsets the gaming eco-system. You can't do this sort of thing. You think you can just get away with breasts that big. How are "indie" games supposed to compete?
Are the sprites original assets? What peeves me about RPG maker games are the ugly standard assets that the Japanese love reusing, but those tiles don't look too bad.
IT WAS THEIR TURN, TODD! IT WAS THEEEEEIR TUUUUUURN!
no lolis
shit game
They are in luck, they can now make a better game and show everyone how a passionate project can look
I mean, I don't keep a mental library of what RPG maker assets look like. The game seems reasonably original, but most of the art effort was clearly put into the characters. still, the backgrounds aren't bad.
based todd dabbing on indie trannies
it takes no effort to port your unreal engine 5 game to the latest build so consumers get the latest improvements.
its only a pain in the ass if you're porting from unreal engine 4. thats why square enix sticks with ue4 for final fantasy 7
Based dev
Worthless bit of virtue signaling. NPCs don't treat anyone any different, they still refer to you as either man or woman and it only ever comes up when you're creating your character. It's absolutely irrelevant and never matters.
there was an entire bizarre saga for weeks where the game's existence leaked but bethesda denied it was real. they could've pushed their release dates a bit until they knew what was going on
I am actually laughing.
I've got a game that's right up your alley
Dont support remasters
Just this once tho
nah fuck you.
go suck a bowl of dicks for your money like every other hooker, least they're honest.
guy is taking the opportunity to get some publicity. With or without the remaster no one would give a fuck about his game and he knows it
just make a nonshit game if they made a better open world RPG game than oblivion with no pozz bullshit and actual body sliders, then no one would care about oblivion remaster
Ah yes, because a puzzle horror game and a medieval fantasy pseudo-RPG has a huge audience overlap.
seething indiehomo no one owes you money for your shitty game made to look like a ps1 game faggot
Did you make a good game?
Oh...
Oh nooooo...
That is why TODD THE GODD RODD didn't pull a Nintendo. He knew fully well that the remaster would destroy the mod.
If you can't make a better game than fucking Oblivion then you should not be making video games.
Go learn to mine coal.
Make a real game and not more pixel shit then
Why did Todd do it?
0 marketing budget (the biggest spender of game releases nowadays, effectively cutting the projected game budget in half)
Announce game as "out now"
Still sold millions week 1
More like why don't more AAAs do this
Most AAAs no one really gives a fuck about. Asscreed for instance lives and dies by its marketing
Endless scorn for Todd
yet they rush to buy his work.
Their money don’t lie.
Grievance marketing campaigns never work, they just make people hate you. Buy an ad or fuck off, faggot.
Oh no, who cares
Oblivion selling this much simply demonstrates the extremely low quality of the mass audience (again.)
ewwwwwwwwwww
