prove me wrong

this is thus far my experience with no man's sky, so no, i won't prove you wrong sir

what other fully procedurally generated games are there?

meincraft

i hate it so much when i find an indie game with a cool art style or gameplay gimmick and then i look in the description and see that fucking word:

r*g**l*k*

Word? I heard it was janky, but then again the person I heard it from is known to be a Boyah-level grump, so

also tec i was about to recommend you watch his feature-length critique of botw but i'm sure you'd tell me "i'm not watching a 2-hour video telling me things i already know "

Counterpoint: Dragon Quest Builders is awesome.

would Rogue Legacy be considered procedurally generated? That game is great

i mean i'll watch it if you think i should, it's possible he's identified some problems that i failed to notice or forgot to mention, and it's also possible (esp. if his rant is two hours long) that he takes issues with some things that even i didn't find all that problematic

I'll just have to turn it up to 2x speed. Jesus Christ, what sort of Youtube viewer has that kind of attention span, and for some random nu-male's video game rant of all things?

i think procedurally generated games (done well) are some of the best experiences in gaming. you actually have to learn the mechanics as opposed to memorizing specific level design (which also has it's place in shmups and other games)

some of the best gaming experiences i've ever had have been in nethack, dcss, and spelunky. you find yourself in incredibly interesting situations that nobody pre-planned for you.

EDIT: if there is no permadeath procedural generation is dumb
