picture me, in the living room, visibly trying and failing to clean off a coffee table without getting distracted, pockets full of butterscotch candies, ibuprofen, lozenges, and loose bits of dyed unspun wool. staring up at the tv with wide eyes watching a four hour long compilation of 3d graphics showcases from 1991-2021, making frantic excited motions with my body as if hyping up a crowd because i obviously want to cheer raucously for whatever game or demo or documentary is clipped on the screen but using my vocal cords at all would do 15 points of damage to me. also im wearing a playstation tshirt and nasa sweatpants if that helps with the visual

When is Rain Code gonna bet put on other consoles?

I have a feeling that Rain Code will be ported to other consoles and PC sometime after its one year anniversary. Nintendo probably struck a deal with Spike Chunsoft to make it a Switch exclusive for a limited time before porting it to other consoles. That seems to be what happens with other non-Nintendo games from other relatively big companies like Capcom's Monster Hunter Rise where it released solely on Switch in March 26, 2021 before finally being ported in January 20, 2023 (and the soundtrack wasn't available on Steam until March 9, 2022). 'Course this is just a guess so I don't exactly know for sure whether this will be the same for Rain Code, but there's hope. There was a Christmas card posted by Sony to Spike Chunsoft last year that showcased Shinigami and Yuma, so that might be a hint of Rain Code possibly being planned to be ported to Playstation.

Week 9: Gaming Communities, Social Gaming and Live Streaming

This week’s topic is one of my favorite topics since it is what I am super passionate about. 

“Gaming” is typically defined as voluntarily overcoming unnecessary obstacles (Suits, 1978), and in most games, we follow their rules. Games are available in different platforms, could be exclusive in some types of games, but mostly available on mobile phones, personal computers (PCs), controllers (nintendo switch, PlayStation). They could also cost money to buy, but a lot of developers actually earn more money from in-game purchases in free-to-play games, than selling the game title itself. Games that are known worldwide with millions of players like Candy Crush Saga, FarmVille, are called “social games”, where the mechanism of those games is to adapt to the player’s friendships to acquire new players as well as the ranking system to keep players competitive. 

Games communities are social communities. They consist of small communities and players from beginner to pros, could be dependent on skill, knowledge and field of expertise. It’s quite common that we see a “typical gamer”: cis white, or East Asian, young, typically middle-class, man, thus leading to a male-dominated game culture. Despite a higher percentage of women joining the gaming communities in recent years, there are still stereotypes indicating gaming is not for women, that they are “boosted”, “bad”, “belong to the kitchen” and usually play for men's validation. Streaming platforms such as Twitch, Youtube and Facebook Live are now full of streamers, showing their contents, ranging from pure gaming, to singing, making music, cooking and maybe just chatting. People coming to these platforms are also in small communities created by content creators and they bond through having the same hobbies, favorite games and from watching the same content creator. Not only indie content creators can make money by streaming their content on such platforms, professional esport players are also offered chances to build themselves their own brands, community and income by showcasing their practice games (Taylor, 2018).

In Australia, specially in Melbourne, huge conventions and festivals about games are being held annually such as Melbourne International Games Week (MIGW) or Penny Arcade Expo (PAX), showing how broad the communities are as thousands of people come to Melbourne to enjoy them. Not only to appreciate games and gamers, conventions were created also for developers and future game-makers to make their way to publish their indie companies and indie games, or to find a home that help them achieve that dream.

Blog Post 5: Narrative of Final Fantasy VII Remake

Final Fantasy VII Remake is an action role-playing game released in 2020 by Square Enix for the PlayStation 4. It is the first in a planned trilogy of games remaking the PlayStation game Final Fantasy VII. In 2021 the first DLC released titled  “Intergrade”, including an overall improved performance for the PlayStation 5. 

With Final Fantasy Remake being a JRPG remaster this will, of course, have an impact on the narrative as it is a retelling of the original game, however we can still apply some of the theoretical narrative principles to the game.

Propp’s Theory

Vladimir Propp theorised that characters in the story can be placed into different categories depending on the role they play in the story. This theory was based on his studies of different fairy tales. For today's media it seems somewhat outdated, it can still be applied to current media however most media creators have tried to move away from these archetypes. Propp defined these categories as the hero, villain, princess, dispatcher, helper, donor, and false hero. There are limitations to these archetypes, as they are too generalised and lack nuances and conflict that the characters may showcase.

Applying Propp’s Theory to Final Fantasy VII Remake

Cloud

For the hero archetype he divided it into 2 subcategories, the seeker and the victim. The seeker subcategory of the hero is an active character, that sets off to usually save the world or stop the villain's evil plan. On the other hand, the victim has directly suffered at the hands of the villain. This description perfectly fits the main character, Cloud Strife. Cloud is a classic hero ready to do anything to save the world. In the story there are multiple examples where the player has to  fight Shinra soldiers or other threats to protect his friends and family. He would also protect the innocent from harm in Sector 7, a town where the player will spend a good amount of time in for the main story and side quests given to you by the locals there. Throughout his time in Sector 7 the player can see his strong, serious and independent personality, but also his kind heart and the urgent need to save them when the town gets attacked. As he is a seeker he is also the victim in the story, the villain of the game Sephiroth, actively tries to manipulate Cloud's mind by appearing to him and planting false memories to further his plan, this mental torment continues throughout the game, further fueling their conflict. Later on, I will further discuss why Sephiroth is a threat and his motives in the story. 

Aerith 

Aerith, Cloud’s friend and partner but also a very important part of the story. She best fits Propp’s archetypal character of the princess. She doesn’t necessarily have the personality of a spoiled princess or a royal background in any way, but she is a character that Cloud desperately tries to save. The princess archetype fits any character who is seen as a “damsel in distress” and requires rescuing. However, this is not something we know right away, throughout the game she plays a passive role as she adventures with Cloud. As we learn about her character we also learn her importance in the story and why she is in danger. Interestingly she is not entirely helpless, she is powerful and has magical abilities to protect herself. Like Cloud, she would also do anything to protect and defend the innocent. We could also argue that her princess archetype overlaps with the victim subcategory as Sephiroth wants to kill her and won’t stop until he gets what he wants. This definitely creates a more nuanced and dynamic character for the player to learn about. 

Sephiroth 

As mentioned earlier, Sephiroth, also known as the Silver Soldier or the One Winged Angel,  plays the role of the primary antagonist in the game and is the villain archetype in Propp's theory. He has a striking appearance, terrifying goals and a connection to the protagonist which fits the villain role perfectly. As he is a villain we could also say he is a false hero, which is another archetype in Propp's theory. Propp describes this archetype as a character who initially appears to be good but soon reveals themselves to be working against the hero or other characters. We later learn that his story begins 3 decades before the events of the game. Sephiroth’s story begins with his birth to professor Hojo and Dr.Lucireseia. Hojo mistakes an alien known as Jenova for the ancient people known as Centra who had the unique ability to talk to the planet. Hojo injected the pregnant Lucireseia with Jenova cells creating Sephiroth. With the Jenova in his system, Sephiroth has superhuman skills and was raised as a super soldier by Shinra. He quickly rose through the ranks and eventually became a legendary war hero and inspired the protagonist Cloud to become a soldier as well. 

The player, alongside Sephiroth discovers the truth about his origins - that he was created through experiments using the alien lifeform Jenova - he believes himself to be a chosen one with a right to rule over the planet. This marks a turning point for him and a complete change of character. He develops a deep hatred for humanity vowing to destroy the world and slaughter everyone in order to fulfill his desire to become a god and control the planet; this delusion is further fueled by Jenova's manipulative influence within him. Furthermore he is also seeking to harm Aerith, the princess character. As the last ancient, he believes she represents the potential to summon "Holy," the only force capable of stopping the Meteor he plans to summon to destroy the planet; by killing her, he attempts to prevent her from interfering with his plan. Eventually Sephiroth gets to her but our hero Cloud is there to save her and in turn defeats Sephiroth. 

To conclude, Propp's theory can definitely be applied to today's media, however with some limitations. This can be seen in characters who don’t exactly fit any of those archetypes, however it’s an interesting guidance used in storytelling. In Final Fantasy VII there’s plenty of characters I couldn't fit into a category because the writing and the story did not match those archetypes for them. However, I believe using this theory is a good way to approach and create a starting point from which writers can build their characters, due to the theory having elements most narratives require to drive the story.

Silent Hill Creator's Slitterhead Gets First Gameplay Look In New Trailer, Out This November

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/silent-hill-creators-slitterhead-gets-first-gameplay-look-in-new-trailer-out-this-november/

Silent Hill Creator's Slitterhead Gets First Gameplay Look In New Trailer, Out This November

Silent Hill creator Keiichiro Toyama founded Bokeh Game Studio back in 2020 to work on a new horror game that we later learned is called Slitterhead. After a teaser trailer and a behind-the-scenes look at the game’s development, we finally have our first look at gameplay. Plus, the studio announced Slitterhead launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PC on November 8.

Revealed in a new trailer during the 2024 Summer Game Fest showcase, Slitterhead’s debut gameplay trailer starts in a Chinese city, with a police detective searching through a trashed ally. He finds what appears to be a mangled body in a trash can before the trailer shows more of the neon-lit Chinese metropolis, with shots of (presumably) our playable protagonist jumping from high above to the ground below while using some spectral power that allows them to possess bodies of pedestrians. We also get a look at Slitterhead’s monstrous creatures and third-person survival action gameplay, which features both guns and melee combat. 

Check it out for yourself in the Slitterhead gameplay trailer below: 

[embedded content]

As you can see, Slitterhead is looking quite action-packed, especially compared to Toyama’s Silent Hill efforts. However, the lineage is clear. 

Slitterhead has largely remained a mystery since its reveal. We know in 2021, Toyama said he was working on a choice-driven game, and we assume that’s Slitterhead. Toyama also told IGN Japan his next project (presumably Slitterhead) would be released in 2023. Obviously, that didn’t happen, but now we know it’s releasing this November. Outside of that, a behind-the-scenes video diary showed a few clips of Slitterhead, including training room-esque encounters, a neon-lit Chinese city, and even a dog that appears to be playable. 

Slitterhead hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PC on November 8. 

What do you think about this first look at Slitterhead’s gameplay? Let us know in the comments below!

When discussing the games that have had the most profound impact on me in the past five years, Bayonetta 3, released in 2022, must be included. This series is not only a personal favorite of mine, but also offers a wealth of inspiration for the design of various enemy characters for the upcoming end-of-semester project.

Grace & Glory, from Bayonetta

Iustitia, from Bayonetta

The enemies in the first two installments were primarily angels, incorporating many Catholic elements such as the purity symbolized by marble and the sanctity represented by gold. This common positive imagery was juxtaposed with their eerie and distorted forms to emphasize the intention of portraying angels as antagonists.

However, in the latest installment, the antagonistic forces are human-created Homunculi, whose variety is frighteningly vast compared to the previous games. They vary in size, shape, and function.

Homunculi enemies

Early drafts of the Homunculi enemies included a variety of silhouettes

According to behind-the-scenes interviews with the development team, to differentiate from the previous games, the Homunculi enemies exhibit more Eastern themes, including Buddhist elements, which are starkly different from the Western-centric Catholic influences of the earlier games.

The background image when homunculi enemies been shown up

Buddhist stupas featuring the same elements

Moreover, considering the significant number of elements associated with lotuses in Buddhism, the enemy designs also integrate numerous lotus motifs.

A Homunculus Boss primarily composed of lotus motifs

A Buddha statue with a lotus base

Clouds and streamers are also prominent elements in the enemy designs, elements rich in Eastern flair.

A Homunculus elite unit with numerous cloud and streamer elements

The design of the torch for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, incorporating many auspicious cloud elements

The image of a fairy with streamers in Dunhuang murals

These motifs, which have frequently appeared in Eastern mythological creations, greatly enhance the Eastern impressions within character designs.

Lotuses, clouds, and streamers, even the pointed domes common in Buddhist architecture, consistently permeate the enemy designs in Bayonetta 3. Some form recognizable parts of their silhouettes, while others enrich the characters' visuals and enhance their stylishness. These designs not only maintain the series' consistency but also resonate with the Eastern theme, distinguishing them from the enemies of previous installments.

The insights I have gained involve identifying one or more recurring elements that can be leveraged repeatedly while exploring enemy character design, or indeed any conceptual creation for a faction or theme. It also requires boldly exploring diverse silhouettes to fully showcase differences among characters, thus creating more opportunities to produce a series of distinctive and thematically clear images.

Wolverine: Jogo da Insomniac será do mesmo universo de Spider-Man

Por Vinicius Torres Oliveira

O Homem-Aranha da Marvel foi lançado em 2018 e é uma das maiores franquias de jogos de super-heróis de todos os tempos. A Insomniac Games planeja expandir o universo Marvel com o próximo jogo Wolverine. Isso porque o mundo do jogo Cabeça de Teia é o mesmo mundo que Wolverine aparece em seu jogo. Esta informação foi compartilhada pelo diretor do Homem-Aranha 2 da Marvel, Brian Intihar, durante o Kinda Funny Gamescast. A discussão sobre um universo compartilhado confirma que tanto o Homem-Aranha quanto o Wolverine dos jogos da Insomniac são residentes da Terra-1048. Além disso, Intihar revelou por que Logan não apareceu no Homem-Aranha 2 da Marvel como um ovo de Páscoa. “Decidimos não fazer isso. Embora estejamos trabalhando nessas outras propriedades da Marvel, é um jogo do Homem-Aranha, então faz sentido focar no Homem-Aranha. Acho que o objetivo é deixar a equipe trabalhar no jogo que quiser. Então, quem sabe o que acontecerá a seguir? Como tal, o jogo faz parte do multiverso Marvel, um universo variante para o qual a Insomniac Games desenvolve histórias. Outro exemplo é a Terra-616, lar dos quadrinhos da Casa das Ideias, e a Terra-1999 no Universo Cinematográfico Marvel (MCU). Portanto, os personagens do jogo podem fazer participações especiais em outras mídias e vice-versa. Vale ressaltar que Peter Parker, da Insomniac, já apareceu no filme animado Homem-Aranha: Através do Aranhaverso, que estreia em 2023. Wolverine da Marvel foi anunciado oficialmente para PlayStation 5 no PlayStation Showcase 2021, e o trailer de anúncio tem cerca de um minuto de duração. O jogo contará a história inédita de Wolverine, um dos mais populares e queridos fãs dos mutantes dos X-Men. Desenvolvido pela Insomniac Games, este jogo, assim como os jogos do Homem-Aranha, ainda está em desenvolvimento e novos recursos serão adicionados no futuro. Não há data de lançamento definida para Wolverine da Marvel.
