    I don't think hyper casual games are ruining gaming as a whole, but I do feel like they're ruining mobile gaming. These games just by existing in the hundreds if not thousands at this point set the standard of "having ads everywhere" making these games really really annoying, and I hope people getting into this hobby don't think this is normal, especially paying $5 a WEEK just to disable ads.

      As somebody that got their first smartphone in 2014, I literally was the early teen that was amazed by mobile games, just to have the worst of the storages and finding myself playing emulators in my phone, as these were very storage efficient, as you could store ROMs in a SD card, something most apps weren't able to do. Now I have a relatively good phone and I couldn't care less, still playing emulators and having like 2 mobile games.

    I think one of the biggest things that bug me about hyper-casual games is how they seem to prey on children or just the young and naive. Using characters that are popular among children (Friday Night Funkin, Poppy's Playtime, Among Us, etc...) really sort of cement that fact. I think of everything going on with Elsagate from a few years back, and how people got in a lot of trouble for using kids characters in disturbing or sexual scenes, which is what advertisements for these types of games do. It makes me sad that children are being used in this way, since a child is going to sit through the ads these games have or they made ask parents for money on these games. There's a few games I've seen that have those really misleading adds, but are still fun one is for a game called Super Stylist. It's not difficult, there's a lot of ways it tries to make you buy money, but I have fun with the fashion since it reminds me of a poorly made style savvy. It feels like slightly more effort was involved, is what I think I'm trying to say.

    It would be interesting to see one of these games developed with more thought, I remember the gamedev CZcamsr Jonas Tyroller did a 'develop 50 games in one day' challenge and referred to one of them as 'hypercasual', but in a somewhat different context. Also, I feel that they are a genre, it's no more vague than the definition for roguelikes, if not less so.

    • @azurabbit12
      @azurabbit12 Před rokem +1

      Not really? All roguelikes have a common feature that is actually important to the way they play and that ties them together, that feature is pretty specific and having it is what makes a game part of the gemre, the only thing hyper casual games have in common is being extremely easy and watered down to attract a bigger audience, namely kids, that is, as said in the video, just a difficulty setting
      A ton of videogame genres are inherently vague, are CoD and Halo shooters? Yes ofc, now is Portal a shooter? Is The Binding of Isaac a shooter? Is Ark: Survival Evolved a shooter?

      It's not a hyper casual game, it has mechanics like the fever thing (if you eat enough bananas) and the game slowly getting faster, it also has obstacles like stones and chicks and the game is fast so you have little time to think. It has music too. Hyper casual runner games don't have that, you just run, collect money or whatever you're supposed to collect and you stumble upon these teleport things, green are the ones you should walk on and red are the ones you shouldn't walk on. Also the character is walking, so you have a lot of time to think. And they're mute and full of vibrations

    5:03 I wanted to add something real quick: most hyper-casual games are asset flips. They usually take unity store assets and mash them into a unity tutorial game.
    How do I know that this is the case? Because I made one of these games for a game development class. Most of these games take unity tutorials and just add models to them. That’s why they look so stiff and basic: because these models and animations weren’t purpose built for the game their in.
    Also, unity assets aren’t bad on their own but almost all of these games are mishmashes of tutorial code and unity asset store models.

    What frustrates me the most about these "games", besides their extremely predatory and at times, inappropriate nature, is the fact that they're hogging spots on the app store charts that better, more deserving games should've gotten, besides the usual ~10-15 actual deserving games that are always near the top (Supercell games, the classics etc.), at the absolute least 70% of the games on the iOS top free games are hypercasual games. This has contributed massively to me moving away from mobile in general as games I might be willing to try otherwise are pushed off the charts so that I might never find them.
    This in turn is also probably hurting smaller developers/games that actually want to make the best game(s) possible that might actually make mobile gaming better. Because of this spam of hypercasual games flooding the market, I'd actually be willing to go as far as to say that the mobile gaming landscape is in the worst state it's been in since I started playing mobile games in ~2010
    I so wish there was a way to filter out these obnoxious apps.

      There's also a Steam version, but you have to pay for that one. Personally speaking, I do feel like some of the later operating systems were definitely made with PC in mind, the newer mechanics don't translate all that well to Touchscreen.

    Is it hurting gaming? Yes, absolutely. But to say it's ruining gaming, I think it's a bit of a stretch. Main reason is because most major gaming companies are still making the same games they always have been. Sure, some companies, like Nintendo, try their hand at more casual gaming experiences, an example like Mario Run. But no major gaming company that I'm aware of has gone full throttle on Hyper Casual games, or have really made Hyper Casual games at all. And every gamer has to start somewhere. And hell, I would argue that old Arcade games were Hyper Casual games. Most cabinet were simple to control, easy to understand, highscore based, and could be played by anyone. HOWEVER! The mobile HC games and Arcade games differ in that, Arcade were difficult, had some nuance, weren't cookie cutter games, and mainly targeted towards young boys. Now over time, gaming as a whole became more developed and complicated, to a point were it was not beginner friendly. To cut myself short on this: Everyone has to have and origin, it may not be a humble origin, but it's an origin nonetheless. I started of with old 2000s education or casual games.

      Last I checked, the casual nintendo games were made as an attempt to keep the lights on and the curtains hung due to the low sales of the Wii U and declining sales of the 3DS. They're nowadays just treated as, at best, companion pieces. i think the only ones that are getting serious support these days are Pocket Camp and Pokemon GO. Pokemon go because it's a decently novel concept being carried out by one of the leading companies in AR gaming, Niantic, and Pocket Camp, because Animal Crossing's status as one of the very first AAA cozy games lends itself pretty well to a "Pick it up, play for a bit, then go on with your day" playstyle already, and isn't hard to adapt to a mobile market. Plus, even Mario Run has thought put into it with unique level design

Basically what I'm saying is Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony, ect. are not ditching console making and their game series, in order to make Hyper Casual games.

    Tbh, I hate their guts. Because yeah, all the obvious bad stuff and the deeply capitalistic nature of them, devs just asset flip and all that. But even more, because I actually like good casual games, the typical time management, HOG, other games like Peggle and similar in nature, and it just ruins their reputation even more than the underserving one they already have, perhaps even leading to less good casual games to come out. So yeah, they are ruining gaming, in particular proper casual games, that have good monetization practices, have some degree of love, care and work put into them and their characters.

    The problem isn't with hyper casual games, it's the $60 releases trying to appeal hyper casual players. Want a example? Pokémon Sword and Shield. The level design is almost 1-dimensional, full of damn corridors that offer no exploration at all. The amount of content? Roughly enough for 10-15 hours. Just imagine going to the theater to see that now movies last less than an hour, but cost the same price. Would you ever go to the theater to watch a movie ever again? I wouldn't.
