Re: Wake Up HBO

In Response To: Re: Wake Up HBO (Cody Miller)


: Then there doesn't seem to be any reason to release it weekly does there? TV
: has to do it because that's how time slots and networks work. If you have
: all the content done in time for release, why not make it ONE dlc pack?

: If what you say is true, then it's arbitrary and the decision is not being
: made in terms of what's best for players.

That's nothing but opinion, Cody, stated as fact. I, for one, am intrigued by the idea of consuming a campaign this way. I don't see it as good or bad for me. Stories have been told in episodic fashion since forever. Why can't video games that contain stories be "told" in the same way?

And your mention of TV and how it works seems to assume that it has to work the way it works, too. I mean, why doesn't HBO just release Game of Thrones season 3 all at once? Part of it is because TV has evolved as it has because it was the most efficient way to produce shows and retain viewership.

Again, who's to say that this isn't something that can work well for video games, too?
