Hilarious.

The most popular Free-to-Play MMO in the world could possibly be a side-scrolling fighting game:



Apparently, it made some headlines:


BUT ATLAS. THIS IS A MICROTRANSACTION MODEL. WE HATE THESE GAMES BECAUSE THEY DO NOT FORCE US TO PAY A MONTHLY COUNTRY CLUB FEE.

I know it's hard for the elites out there to swallow. Trust me, I've been there. As it turns out, people actually like deciding when, where, and how to play their games.


The real trick now is going to be to entice your players to want to spend.


How strange that an insanely popular game in China is a side-scroller.

  2. I honestly see a correlation. It's not that games can't be made in 3D, but too many good titles are JUST focusing on 3D.

    2D isn't a bad medium. It served me through most of my childhood life.
