Any can build games in an agile way and people have been for years. That's not new.

People who don't understand that HN and PH are really not a good places to find real gamers are a dime a dozen. Don't worry, I have done this myself as well.

Games take a while to make if you care about the details. If you want to create an engaging and interesting world that players want to engage with, that polish takes time. But AI is saving the entire industry time and effort. But sure, dump a game out incrementally. I just don't see a new opportunity, just the opportunity that has always been there.

No Man's Sky was there to tell us that you can generate a whole universe but if you forget to put anything your players want to interact with, you'll only get so far.

I mean, good luck. I don't mean to be pessimistic, I just spend enough time every day watching indie devs pitch their half-baked game ideas that this is unoriginal.

I said it wasn’t agile because the cycle between launching and getting player feedback takes too long.

And yeah, I agree it’s not really a new opportunity, just one that’s always been there. It just hasn’t been done right yet.

Games just need to be fun and well-made. I’ll put in the work to make it happen. Thanks for the comment!
