ESRB ratings, and which ones do you think spidweb games would get? in General
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Tuesday, November 11 2003 23:36 Profile Homepage #20 Calm yourself, Djur. The question in the topic is what ratings we think SW games would get if the ESRB rated them, not which ones we think they should get. I'm inclined to disagree with Sir David, though. I doubt a couple of throwaway lines of conversation would change the rating. Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

I'd say the chances of successfully crossing them are slim at best. Even if you succeeded, I doubt the offspring would bear fruit. Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

The secret to making a good game lies in using all the elements of the medium to your advantage, not just preventing some of them from "getting in the way". How would you like it if the next time you saw a movie, a whole bunch of text scrolled across the screen for 2 hours because the director decided fancy visuals would "get in the way of the plot"? -------------------- I believe there are 15 747 724 136 275 002 577 105 653 961 181 555 468 044 717 914 527 116 709 366 231 425 076 185 631 031 296 protons in the universe, and the same number of electrons. -- Sir Arthur Eddington Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

If a game has the best plot in the world but is mind-numbingly tedious, I won't play it. On the other hand, good gameplay can make up for a lot of flaws in other areas.

Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Wednesday, November 5 2003 00:35 Profile Homepage #3 I'm approaching the end of my first year at university (I'm in Australia, where our academic year actually coincides with the calendar year.) I'm in a Biomedical Science course, which is essentially a science course that pretends it's a medicine course (the course structure is more rigid than science, but the actual material taught is more like life sciences than medicine). As such, the course is a haven for failed medical students with alarming self-esteem issues. (I am not one of the aforementioned, having never intended to study medicine in the first place.) Right now I'm looking at majoring in therapeutic pharmacology, but the subjects I've chosen for second year keep my options somewhat open. (University courses over here tend to run to three years, not counting honours year (which, these days, everyone who can do tends to do).) -------------------- I believe there are 15 747 724 136 275 002 577 105 653 961 181 555 468 044 717 914 527 116 709 366 231 425 076 185 631 031 296 protons in the universe, and the same number of electrons. -- Sir Arthur Eddington Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

On the other hand, the more people there are, the more chance there is that one person controlling a vital character will leave or lose interest.
