Dyack added further, "I know a lot of people have expressed excitement and that's great to see. We want to create games that are very content driven and tell great stories and I don't see how Natal is going to help me tell a better story or create better content."



LOL. I thought Too Human was a decent game(I am a loot whore). But as far as content went, it was poop.

Actually content is just story. Loot, talents, game play variety is all content. Just mentioning that you enjoyed the game for it's loot just means that it has plenty of content.

 

I agree with Dycak. I can't see how Natal will help developers make better games. I really think people are putting to much faith in MS. For those who have been around before Xbox and know how MS works. Let's just say that MS has way more failures than success.

Yes, it had plenty of poop.  Quantity does not equal quality, oh wise person you.

Yeah like Too Human was good. Natal will be the best add on for the 360 next year.

He actually says something to the effect of: "I don't see how Natal will help me make better content", so the thread title is a bit misleading.

Other than saying that though, I don't really have a strong feeling for Natal, as I don't know of any games that have been announced for it yet.

Agreed, but that happens a lot here.

As for this thread, I was very interested in seeing how this played out.  We have plenty of Dyack-haters and Natal-haters, and this thread didn't dissappoint in pitting them against one another LOL.

For the record, I had a 55 hour blast with Too Human and am really curious to see what they do with Project Natal.  I understand Dyack's point, but to me it proves how he is not an innovative thinker first.  That's not his strength.  Natal is not aimed at developers like him and that's perfectly fine.  But for some (as we've seen in droves), the possibilities excite them.  That means the industry and market is large enough for both types of devs and both types of gamers. 

In the end, that's good.

Why is it misleading? Read this line.

Dyack added further, "I know a lot of people have expressed excitement and that's great to see. We want to create games that are very content driven and tell great stories and I don't see how Natal is going to help me tell a better story or create better content."

I bolded the word that makes the quote different than the thread title.  And yes, that one word IS that important.

natal will be good for wii esque party social games, not for normal gaming.

just check tony hawks ride for proof.

@Darth Tigris Well Denis Dyack and his development team are a part of industry so this statement to me did ring true. As in make sense.

tell me that you were not pissed at the end... the last part of the game the story got really fucking good and then bam over... and now we probably wont ever see a sequal... and that sucks... I hope Microsoft ponies up for the sequal even though the first kind of faltered... they did switch from URE3 to a new engine mid way through and that really hurt them
