Narrative driven, story rich games don’t sell?

How many video game franchises are making the leap to tv/movies these days? Hint, it’s the ones with narrative driven, story rich games.

Go ahead and make pay to win mobile games, I don’t play them and they rake in millions so it makes perfect business sense.

But the idea that gamers don’t pay for good narrative driven, story rich games is laughable.

I think the biggest problem with a lot of game franchises have is they only sell the game. So much money is being left on the table with the best efforts being a screengrab lazily printed on a cheap shirt that sells maybe one or two.

If I could get some official, quality, Umbrella/Shinra/Arasaka/Faro corporation mugs, phone covers, meme tier shirts etc I’d be all over it.

Same here! Loved the main 3, absolutely hyped to see It make a comeback looking the way it does so far

As above so below

People love crapping on the reality of resource economics.

Someone is going to provide the coal.

The real solution would be for Canada to be aggressive in its green energy programs (and start accessing resources other than lumber and oil).

Being a leader in green energy production (not just by having nuclear, hydro etc) but actually producing solar, wind, batteries, etc for export.

Using carbon based energy to create low carbon energy sources is the only way we’re going to successfully transition away from fossil fuels.

The main problem is that we do 1% green and 99% carbon, and that number never really seems to change.

Our carbon tax is not improving public options to ditch fossil fuels, which should be the whole point of a carbon tax (reduced use by increasing price, and using the tax to create low carbon alternatives).

I doubt we’ll ever be serious about a green transition anytime soon.
