What Does a game truly need?

[tomemozok]

In the spirit of the Dota2 trailer,what does a hero truly need,what do you think a game truly needs for it to be great?:bounce:

 

[Stigmata]

At least one instance of perfect circular balance.

 

[Vegeta897]

It needs a thread in the right section.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Horse armour.

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Yes, horses need to arm our troops. Horse power.

 

[Acepilotf14]

Needs to not be a MOBA.

 

[Lucid]

Dinosaurs.

 

[Krynn72]

Tiger 1Es.

 

[Viperidae]

A vertical learning curve.

 

[morgs]

Quick time events.

 

[Mr. Djees]

At least two players and payoffs.

 

[BabyHeadCrab]

dadss

 

[Lucid]

More dinosaurs.

 

[BabyHeadCrab]

Spoiler

Remember that ****er from Tomb Raider? I pissed myself. And shat myself.

 

[ChiliFan]

A crobar.

 

[Dinnesch]

Physics

 

[sinkoman]

It definitely DOESN'T need a lockpicking/hacking minigame, and an overly played up illusion of choice and freedom.

I think that physics is definitely a big one for shooting games though. It kind of ruins the experience when you fill a counter top full of expensive and delicate lab equipment with bullets, and not a single thing budges. Or when you shoot a lightbulb, but end up with a bullethole-on-sheetmetal decal.

 

[BabyHeadCrab]

illusion of freedom

 

[Eejit]

Chryssalids.

 

[Vegeta897]

Futanari.

 

[Evo]

Closure if you guys don't start discussing this properly.

:mean:

 

[ríomhaire]

There is no one aboslute thing a game needs other than likes of code and to run on a computer, just as there is nothing a novel needs more than words and grammar.

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Passionate concept.

 

[Eejit]

There is no one aboslute thing a game needs other than likes of code and to run on a computer, just as there is nothing a novel needs more than words and grammar.

If that. :feersum endjinn:
