Digital Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 So this is a question for our game owners, such as @Pepper-Head, @Anoua, @Regnant, @Hare, and @runeowl. If you did not own or have your game, would you actively be a player in your own game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper-Head Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Haha, the real question is if I could remove my bias to answer the question Right now, it's still in pretty active beta development so I could see myself poking around daily but not too active. I can understand that. When the game is "complete" I'm sure I would check in daily and spend at least an hour a day! I made Kasaria based off of most of my interests and things I desired to see more of or added to pet sites, so of course it'd make sense that it would be one of my favorite games. If it can keep me passionate enough to pour time and money into making it, I'm sure I'd want to play it too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hare Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Yep, and I would enjoy it a lot more not knowing every little thing about it. =D Edited May 24, 2017 by Hare 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper-Head Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) @HareYES I get myself so excited about lore/plot ideas as I plan and implement them, but I could only imagine what the player would feel like to discover and try to figure things out on their own <3 Though I must say it's really fun and rewarding as an owner to see players work through stuff!

Yeah =D Plots are fun to follow! It's also really rewarding to watch everyone else enjoy it, but a tradeoff for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runeowl Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I actually do! It's important to make a game that's fun enough to want to play yourself. I really don't have time to play petsites because of the time I spend in development, but it's still fun, hehe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aminirus Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Even though my game Wild Howlz is still in development, if I wasn't the mastermind behind it, I would totally enjoy playing it. It's geared for not just straight up point and click stuff, but actually thinking and choice making, which I enjoy. Plus, I love fantasy and wolves so it's a great combo for me already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoua Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Eliyo yes, especially once it's more complete as right now things are more limited long term. Of course I'm biased so hard to really objectively answer of course. But I made it based on my own interests primarily, so it is the game I wanted to play. Animal Acres probably not as much. I do enjoy things about it, which is why I purchased it to begin with, but I just don't play sims sites as much tending to prefer more fantasy. Which Animal Acres does have mythical creatures too (one of the things that stood out when I was deciding) but the main goals are really stats and shows, so very much a sim game concept at the core. And this is one of the main reasons I try to access my player base a lot when making changes or additions, since I am not as much the target audience. I try to pay attention on Eliyo too of course, but it's more for me and I have a main direction I am working towards regardless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Definitely. Even now, years after leaving previous projects, I like to go back to visit them and "play" them for nostalgia :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
