How does it feel if you are a developer and people devote their lives to your creation?
Particularly if you spent weeks making it and people have spent years playing with it?
Then how does it feel if millions of people play?
Game developers are kind of cut out of the story. It would be nice to have their take on the story, to hear what they have been creating whilst others have merely played.
- zyx321 8y agoThe problem is that Japanese developers are not exactly easy to get a hold of. The biggest speed games are Mario and Zelda titles (and among those it's especially the older ones). There are speedruns with developer commentary [1] but it's mostly for western indie games. [1] http://gdqvods.com/category/developer-commentaries/ http://gdqvods.com/category/developer-commentaries/
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y agoI know John Romero of id software fame is (still, after 25 years) a big fan of a lot of the Doom community's output and I see his comments and likes popping up on speed runs, mods, fan art etc. I even had a very brief conversation with him on Instagram after posting a Doom-related photo which was very cool considering he was one of my childhood heroes.
