I see a game like Bushido Blade as a kind of “lost future” of fighting game design, in that if it had blown up and become super popular we might’ve seen fighting games do away with traditional things like health bars & supers altogether, focusing more on short, visceral encounters where you can die in one-hit and which you could cut the heavy atmosphere [this type of punishing experience provides] with a knife. But alas, that never happened and this type of outside-the-box game design was never really iterated upon enough to become an alternate to the traditional fighting game design, let alone become the standard.
One game mechanic I can think of that has been woefully underutilized is environmental destruction. When I first played Red Faction back in the day I thought for sure that “destruction” was the future of 1st & 3rd person shooter game design and going to become the standard. “don’t wanna go down a certain path because …
EDIT: I previously posted this to r/gaming where it initially didn’t appear to receive moderator approval, so I posted it here. By the time I posted this, it had apparently been approved on r/gaming, hence the appearance of a duplicate.
So lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of people talking about the English voice acting in Stellar Blade. Specifically, I’ve seen a lot critics and internet commentators alike discussing how they felt it was particularly poor or stilted, and being baffled as to how that could have happened in a contemporary AAA release like this. I also saw a lot of people chiming in with what they thought ‘caused’ this. Since I have a little bit of insight into this part of the industry, I decided to clarify some things. Initially, I was replying to a comment on Skill Up’s review of Stellar Blade; people seemed to find the comment interesting and informative, so I decided to post it here.

It’s been quite the journey for us since the release of our breakout hit, Reus, a decade ago. We’ve tasted both critical and commercial success, but we’ve also weathered disappointing sales results. Now, after a long wait, we’re back in action with Reus 2.
Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOZB4Mvv3Gs&t
Reflecting on our journey, I have to admit it’s been a rollercoaster. We started with 12 people, dwindled down to 3, and now we’re back up to 10 for Reus 2. We’ve created three games in the past decade: Reus, Renowned Explorers: International Society, and Godhood. Each one has been a unique challenge and learning experience.
So, why did it take us so long to bring Reus 2 to life? Well, there were a few reasons. After the success of Reus, we found ourselves with more money and opportunities than ever before. Everyone wanted to pursue their own ideas, and we lacked a clear direction for the company. It took us some time to …
Hey r/Games!
I’m excited to share our newest game, Dice & Fold, now available for demo. If you love strategy dungeon crawlers, this one’s for you!
Steam Page Link (DEMO AVAILABLE) | Trailer | Twitter
TL;DR: You basically roll dice, drag-drop them on enemies, and build an item inventory to kill the boss.
Dice & Fold is a turn-based dungeon crawler where your primary mode of attack is rolling dice. Roll the dice, deal damage, and strategically “fold” enemies to progress. Inspired by classic Solitaire, the game features a top-down table with card-based enemies. Dive into the dungeon with 20 different classes, and build your deck to outsmart and fold monsters.
In our game, “folding” refers to defeating a monster. Beware, though—your hero can also fold, which ends the game. The gameplay, inspired by the feel of Solitaire but with entirely different rules, has been refined to ensure that fans of Solitaire will find it engaging. A typical gameplay …
