In the recent years of my gaming
experience and observation, something caught my attention and it is undeniable.
Gamers and developers alike have put more emphasis on the graphics and the
resolution of a game rather than the total quality of the game. It is sad to
note that 1080p and frame rates are headlining. Visual satisfaction is what
most of the gamers are after. A game with a pretty good plot and exceptional
story and game mechanic is criticized by its rock-texture while a sub A title
gets so much attention because it plays on an HD TV or monitor. The sad truth
is that more and more people are into latest generation consoles – that is Xbox
One and PS4 --- because of its aesthetics reasons.
I would be a fool to say that I
do not like high resolution and the odd lens glare that is relatively pleasing
to the gamers’ eyes; to say that that criterion can make a good game makes me
shake my head. Take for example Boom
Beach hack by Supercell.
It is nothing but a 2D strategy type of game that does not have the beautiful
graphics of a Call of Duty game, let alone of a Metro 2033 game, but it does
not mean the former is a much less game compared to that of the latter.
Now, of course in very huge
amount of cases, when a developer produces a game in which is considered sporting
a bad visual presentation, it will most likely be remembered as a failure even
it portrays great gameplay and storylines. Of course the old favorite
Minecraft, Boom Beach Hack, have something unique in them that was the key
element for its success even with its very cartoon-like graphics Here's the
issue, it is possible the hottest debate among gaming experts as to whether
resolutions and visual appeal should take priority or whether the advent of
next generation consoles forced developers to make games that are not well
structured and planned just to make it to the ever growing market. Sure, we've
come to a level where more often that not games will be isolated purely because
of how they look, but does that really affect the overall game quality on the
landscape of gaming? Now it is your choice --- looks or essence of the game?
Make your stand and make it count!
