Re: SHISHKA, OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN

In Response To: Re: SHISHKA, OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN (Document)


: My preference would be something like
: CONTINUE
: REVERT TO LAST CHECKPOINT
: RESTART LEVEL
: CONTROLLER SETTINGS
: SAVE LAST CHECKPOINT
: QUIT

: Where if you select Quit and you have an unsaved checkpoint, the game asks
: you if you want to save first. That way I don't have to quit the game
: every time I get the 12 rocket marines to a new checkpoint.

You fail to understand the psychology here. The more you request them to change, even if you see it as minor, the more of an impact it makes on their dev cycle - thereby giving them the easier choice to just reply "We can't do that, it'll require too much testing, etc., we're too far into it now, etc.". (which I don't really blame them for... everything impacts everything when it comes to this kind of game development) My solution is the *absolute* most minor change requested. Therefore, it is the least burdening to them.
