      So, you don't know who puts them in there, they just appear? Doesn't that raise any questions, like who has access to the game? Wether the game is alive, or something? Why chairs, why not barrels or buckets or something else entirely? How does it know where to put them? Does it know their function? Does it understand humans and our needs? Are there multiple? Do have society do they have needs?

    As an indie game dev I can confirm that chairs are made when needed. For example if you want to set up a bar for a demo, that is when you add chairs. Or if you are making a half cutscene, that is when you add chairs, then reuse the script for other chairs. That is coding. For the physical chairs that you can't interact with, it just comes with all the other level details.

    • @jout738

      Yes in making game you need to start with the basics and do it nearly fully complete, before relasing the trailer, like you done 90% of the game, when the trailer comes out and so only 10% left to make the game complete, but if you release the trailer, while only 10% of the game done. You put hugh pressure on the developers, when you also show deadline, when you think this game will be done and eventually the game will not be done in the deadline and it will be joke game the customers laugh to, when they play the game, so should only show trailers, when the game is nearly done, when then can be hype up that the game is comming out, but before that you should not talk about the game to not make customers wait too long frustrated and give too much pressure to the developers, when there is deadline, but they still got long way ahead, before the game will be complete and so they rush to make it, but of course it will fail then.

      ? Is the game company supposed to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a game, in secret? They don't even see how the public responds to the game? Imagine investing in this huge game, finishing it, then start to market it, and turns out people didn't like the concept in the first place, because you only wanted to market the game after you finished it. The marketers were provided what they expected the game to be, and told to market it, which they did, spectacularly. The overhyped marketing is literally the only thing keeping the company that made Cyberpunk out of bankrupcy, as without the marketing, the bad game would have bad sales. You could say the marketing was the best executed in Cyberpunk, as without the marketing, Cyberpunk is nothing more than a bad game that nobody heard of.

    Way back when we had this genius concept in gaming called a "demo". It was revolutionary, really!
    You could play a part of the game (sometimes even as much as a third or half of it!) for free (not even an account or internet connection required!) and decide based on that whether to buy the game.
    Sounds crazy, right? Play an unfinished game in "beta" and not pay for it before or require a pre-order super dooper special edition that costs twice as much.

      ​@@plebisMaximus It's because, due to the complex mechanisms spanning across the game, and the reusal of assets across a greater environment, a modern game's demo will contain 90% of the size of the final game in memory, whilst only having 10% of the story. With how long downloads take, this would make demos very unpopular. Not to mention company greed forcing every effort to be monetized rather than relying on their good game to sell itself.

    It is interesting because a lot of us know what games are capable of, and if we stopped to think about what Cyberpunk 2077 was promising, it wouldn't have been that hard to determine that it was a nearly impossible game to pull off. With that said, I think the combo of it being "next gen" (which always throws off our expectations) with "effective" marketing (albeit EXTREMELY dishonest marketing) got tons of people to believe the impossible. Wild how much we're swayed by marketing.

    To answer the chair question:
    For big studio's, it's usually outsourced to freelancers or studio's like nixxes or dekogon who specialize in props.
    If it isn't done through outsourcing, the chairs would probably be done by either the prop team or the environment team, depending on the size of the studio. The general rule is: work from big to small. This means that the large, important props (hero props) get made first. Usually these props are done by either senior or lead artists, but juniors frequently help out. Smaller props like chairs and other furniture are usually done by a team of juniors and interns with guidance from their lead artist. These would usually be made right in the middle of development, because in the case of cyberpunk, they do very frequently show up in the game's world..

      Similar problems exist in the indie world as well. There are tons of indie games that don't really do anything special and spend most of their budget on presentation. Art, music, sound, sometimes story with very simple and derivative gameplay loops that don't last beyond the first hour or two. The real difference is that indie developers don't have money to spend on marketing and their games are usually $20 at most instead of the $60 AAA developers charge just for the baseline experience. That said, the best games I've played in the past decade are all indie games. I think this is because of the lack of pressure an overzealous marketing team creates on AAA developers as well as having more development space to focus on creating what you want instead of what some suit thinks gamers want.

    I've been subbed since Eddy first mentioned this channel exists on his video and for some reason my initial instinct was to download this video the second it dropped. Now that I have it downloaded safely as a backup I will watch via UA-cam. Finally we can confirm to the world that Tony is indeed an actual person and not Gus & Eddy's fictional podcast editor.

      The problem is in the games industry you have multiple competing products all coming out at the same time. Games can be expensive and people only have so much time and money. So if your game doesn't stand out then they're going to look at something else. Especially when that something else is promising the world.

    • @bernep3374
      @bernep3374 3 роки тому

      @@Akiironzo Perhaps. Maybe its just me, but Im much more inclined to play games that excel at just one or two things really well, rather than everything, and games that advertise themselves as such tend to meet those expectations more consistently.
      I remember the Outer Worlds advertised itself as an RPG, but they specifically said to hold off on expectations when they were launching their game. I think it worked out well because it was a decent game, but it wasnt extremely overhyped, so it didnt turn into a bad game flat out since expectations were set lower.

    I am an animation artist working for a pretty large gaming studio and from what I can tell (I am new) during the early stages of the project they will often have very simple placeholders for things like chairs and other environmental stuff so that the animators can work on the cut scenes and stuff while the 3D modelers are doing their stuff like making chairs :)
    Also, sometimes the animation team is not even given the final voice acting until much later! We use speech to text first and it is as hilarious as it sounds :)

    I feel like this is true for the entire tech industry. I just work in IT, and I can tell you, this is exactly what executives do. They don't listen to the people doing the work. They don't collaborate with the people doing the work. They make promises without checking with the people who actually do the work. And then they come back and blatantly throw the people who do the work under the bus, b/c those people couldn't get it done "in time" -- which, again, it can't be over-stated that they never collab really to get a true sense of how long something should take if it's done right. Nevermind the fact that they couldn't agree on something for over a year. When they do agree, they want it done in a couple days -- when it's also a year-long project or more. We're all over-worked, tired, unappreciated. Coders get put through the worst. I'm so glad I don't do that work. This problem just keeps spinning out, b/c someone is always willing to sell their time for nothing. They don't realize how thankless a lot of it can be. I guess what I'm working my way toward is Tech Workers Unite or something. And yes, Marketing has to stop lying. Though, I have less hope for that happening in our future.

    I'm so glad this is getting some notice. Great points in this video, never lie to those who buy your game. The internet doesn't like being misguided. I worked for a big AAA game publisher and was on the marketing team for a big IP's release. I had to campaign and really push to get a slice of 9 minutes of gameplay as the first thing released with the announce, instead of the amazingly fancy CGI trailer that Digital Domain created for it. We still used the DD asset, once people saw what the development team did. Devs really work hard to ensure things are the best they can get them, given the memory and hardware limitations.

    It's really easy to say "Don't show the game until it's ready", but in the small indie developer space, that is literally suicide because the only way we can even have the faintest prayer at paying our mortgages is to start building up Steam wishlists almost immediately when development starts. And don't get me started on crowd funding. Maybe this advice works for a AAA studio, but walk a mile in the indie dev's shoes and you'll have a much broader perspective.
