Assassin's Creed: Unity - Constructive Criticism

This time we will take a look at Assassin's Creed: Unity and its gameplay-related issues and design decisions that I disagree with.

Middle-Earth: Shadow Of Mordor - Constructive Criticism

I found Shadow of Mordor to be a very enjoyable game. However, despite its innovative features and fun combat, I have found some things to question and dislike. Let's discuss them.
P.S: For the sake of simplicity, I will be calling Uruks - Orcs.

Realism in Games - Looting

Looting corpses of freshly slain enemies has become a major part of most RPG and Dungeon Crawler games. However, I have been wondering for quite a while, why isn't loot that "drops" from opponents sensible and more realistic in its contents? Let me explain.

Realism in Games - Leveling

Level-based progression is often seen in RPG and MMORPG games. Role Playing Games, as a genre, are known for their interactions with NPCs, story-lines, and character progression. In these games, character progression often relies on a system where each level gives a character a boost to attributes and new skills. However, I do not believe that this is the best character progression system, especially for MMORPGs. Make sure to follow the hyperlinks throughout the post to familiarize yourself with the concepts I am referencing.

Realism in Games - Armor

When developing a game, often a major question arises: how realistic should the game be? In other words - how close to real life should the game play to keep it fun? A game being "realistic" is often associated with the game being difficult, hardcore, and not for casual players.

This post will be focusing on armor.

Watch Dogs - Constructive Criticism

While playing Watch Dogs by Ubisoft, I have encountered many game aspects that seemed repetitive and under-developed. It is time to call the fixers for some constructive criticism.

Video Games and Piracy - How to make gamers buy your games

Video game piracy is one of the largest problems that game developers face in the age of widespread sharing of files and cracking of code. Established and indie developers lose a lot of their revenue to cracked and torrented copies of their games. However, there is a simple way to prevent gamers from pirating games. The answer lies in online content.

We need more Sandbox MMOs

MMORPG games have been following the same formula since the time World of Warcraft showed it to them. Hoping to ride WoW's train of success, these games have not risked deviating from the formula by much. The setting might change, the graphics, the style, the animations, but its still a "theme-park" - a linear game experience tailored by the developer and not the player.
