Another line being taken by several of these people is that gamers "hate art".
This shit pisses me off. Stop motion is the lowest denominator for 'arthouse' bullshit in modern day and that coupled with the tumblrista style makes for hideous vomit in digital form. 10fps characters against 60ps everything else just makes gamers think their inputs are lagging and their eyes hurt. It is not clever, it is not fun, it is not aesthetically appealing. It is NOT ART in any sense of the word.

This isn't the old stop motion where people hand-crafted figures filled with charm and imperfections, it's the equivalent of an AI filter. Hell, The Midnight Walk did it better by scanning in clay models with a unique art design, has more gameplay and a longer content time, and it didn't make my eyes hurt because they used a reasonable timing gap for smoother flow. But that sure didn't get near the time of day from journos.

And even if it was art, games are product first, entertainment second, and artistic medium third. They can only waste 5 years making this bullshit because grants fund them, not because they've proved themselves capable of making a fun product that people want more of.
 
Skillup once again showing that he's an industry shill and that Mixtape is an industry plant.

Because she's QUIRKAAAAAY YAAAAZZ QUEEN

because like other faggot devs, they'd rather focus on FF13-ing the experience as much as possible than dillydally on such details (details like NPC's in an immersive open world fantasy RPG, cough, Avowed, cough).
"FF13-ing the experience?"

Hey that's not fair, FF13 at least opens up once you get to not-Australia. Then again, the Aussies who made this clearly didn't like that and just stuck with the corridor.
