Ever since I was a child it has been my single favorite building. It looks fucking sick.

The five and one actually refer to building materials. Wood floors (Type 5) over a concrete base (Type 1). Its a building code thing, but yeah, its usually used as apartment levels over one retail/base level.
Buildings of various heights can be five over ones.

Not all games are actually trying to tell a meaningful story. Honestly feels like the minority. A lot are really just gameplay-focused romps.

What. Of course its very directly a response to that. Newspapers are going to publish pieces related to topical events. That's what news is. That's why people buy newspapers. This still doesn't mean the newspaper is endorsing the viewpoint in the opinion piece. That's a fundamental misunderstanding on what an opinion piece is.

The NYT has published opinion pieces by the Taliban. Doesn't mean they're on their side.

VR is massive for this type of thing. Absolutely love Into The Radius for this, takes it even further than Alyx does.

Well yeah, but that's a game design question, not as much a question of hardware. They'll move on to some other formulaic thing we'll get sick of, don't worry. You can't money your way into good design.

I think that the next direction to improve on is more characters. Being able to render a real wall of zombies that fills city streets, every single one bouncing off each other around like a real swarm.
Full scale, first person, battles the size the Romans had. Stuff like that. Small scale detail we've basically got what we're going to get, but just making the scenes grander and bigger can keep going before you hit that point of diminishing returns. A crowd of 1000, 10000, and 100000 all feel different in real life. I imagine past 100k characters in a scene you kinda stop caring, but that's a long, long way off.
Imagine a hitman game in a place like a video game convention, full scale, fully crowded.

Real time gameplay will never look like live footage. 4k takes 4x the power as 1080p and looks marginally better, but still doesn't look 'real'. Imagine how many more time's you're going to have to 4x the cost to get very slight improvements.
All graphics follow this pattern. Diminishing returns for results. This is either some quantum computing shit or never happening. Computing technology will have to fundamentally change.

Bigger hole, but bigger improvement on the city. Getting cars off the road helps actively the cities budget. Infrastructure shouldn't generate revenue.

I mean, games are about solving problems. Changing up what the problems you're focused on keeps things fresh. I find any game where you just go full auto constantly against bullet sponge enemies snore inducing. Every single bullet should feel like an actual event, but a lot of games measure health pools in magazines, not rounds.

Actually doing anything with a gun besides just shooting it. Clearing jams. Managing real reloads, not just refilling the gun from an infinite pool of fully loaded magazines as long as you have bullets. Chambering rounds. Safety. Stuff like that.

"Town character" is a non argument. "We cannot build something here because something like that has not been built here."
Your original town character was goddamn trees you go far back enough. Its just a nonstarter that can be dismissed out of hand.

I always love the date ranges people give when trying to argue biking doesn't happen in the winter. I guess we have snowstorms 9 months out of the year now.
