Podcasts about Immersive sim

In dieser Folge sprechen Christina und Florian über ihr Spielejahr 2024.

¡Nuevo episodio! Esta vez, volviendo a uno de esos formatos tan diferentes como originales. En resumen, hemos realizado un debate/tertúlia sobre un tema que sirve para todas las épocas (aunque nosotros lo enfocamos más al retro): la ambientación en los juegos. ¿Por qué es tan importante? Y sobre todo, ¿en qué consiste realmente? Por supuesto, como no podía ser de otra manera, en este episodio hablamos sobre un montón de juegos con una gran ambientación, pero también reflexionamos sobre todo lo que debe tener un título para generar esas buenas atmósferas. De todas formas, el que más brilla en este episodio es nuestro colaborador Cyberio. El caso es que Andrés nos hace una clase magistral del género Immersive Sim. No es que el nombre nos apasione, pero sí sirve para hacernos entender. Efectivamente, una parte del programa está dedicado a aquellos juegos que basan parte de su atractivo en la ambientación, tanto narrativa como jugablemente. Por eso, hablamos tanto de algunos de los juegos más representativos del género (como Deus Ex), como de los elementos que lo caracterizan. Y eso, de forma inteligente, lo extrapolamos a los juegos que no son del género. En otras palabras, también hablamos de cómo muchos juegos utilizan la narrativa de una forma diferente para crear una buena ambientación y sumergirnos en sus mundos. Incluso hablamos de elementos narrativos que forman parte de la jugabilidad, llevando al jugador a transformar el mundo o a implicarse en la propia historia a través de cómo juega (y no por argumento). Y todo eso sin olvidarnos de muchas sorpresas. ¿Podríais responder qué juegos son malos pero con buena ambientación? ¿Y al revés? Como no, Uri pondrá a prueba a Pablo, improvisando en directo. Por último, comentar que en este episodio vuelven también los audios de los oyentes. Aunque en este caso debemos decir oyente. J.Omar. Vaya uno, ¿eh?

Weird West - Immersive Sim Review: A Journey into the Fantastic FrontierOnce upon a time, in a digital landscape far removed from the conventional frontiers of gaming, there emerged a genre-bending marvel known as the "Weird West"—a concoction of immersive simulation, fantastical elements, and uncharted storytelling. Today on the best gaming podcast, let's delve dive on the Weird West - Immersive Sim Review. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ongamecast/support

System Shock 2 is considered by many to be the finest immersive sim ever made.  Released in 1999 in a coventure by Looking Glass Studios and Irrational Games, it sought to combine the classic 3D dungeon crawling of the original with pen and paper inspired RPG systems.  While resource management and exploration were still a key part of the experience, you were now restricted in what you could initially do by those RPG stats - and it was only towards the end game that your character would feel truly strong.  Perhaps most obvious were the changes from the more abstract environments to something that felt real - this was a real place that had a disaster befall it, not just a series of rooms and corridors stapled together.But are those things that were so revolutionary back in 1999 actually that impressive today?  Nowadays we have semi-spiritual successors like Bioshock which mimicked environmental storytelling.  We have Prey and Deus Ex with far more expansive RPG systems.  Has System Shock 2 stood the test of time, or does it even offer something unique, when compared to the games of the present?On this episode we discuss:StorytellingHow does System Shock 2 tell its story to the player?  Do its many audio logs combine into a complete and understandable narrative, or is it just a lot of standing still and being bored while a voice actor spouts nonsense at you?Level DesignDoes System Shock 2's systems complement its level design, or get in its way?  Does the non-linearity of the levels represent the apex of the game, or are they just confusing messes?RPG SystemsHow well designed are the RPG aspects of System Shock 2?  Do they allow the player the creative expression to make a unique character that tackles problems in their own way?  How well do they work over the full runtime of the game?We answer these questions and many more on the 120th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!—Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherSystem Shock 2 OST: Eric Brosius, Ramin Djawadi —RSD Mods for System Shock 2—Is System Shock 2 still the best and brightest immersive sim, or has it been eclipsed by new games?  Should we finally play Deus Ex?  What other games in the genre are we yet to play and need to?  Come let us know what you think on our community discord server!  You can support the show monetarily on our Buy Me a Coffee Page.

Holder remaket af en 30 år gammel klassiker? “System Shock” er et action-adventure immersive sim med horror-elementer, udviklet af Nightdive Studios og udgivet af Prime Matter. Men måske vigtigst af alt er det et remake af “System Shock” fra 1994 – et af de vigtigste og mest betydningsfulde spil inden for Immersive Sim-genren af computerspil. Hvorfor spørger du måske? Jo, fordi “System Shock” skabte selve genren Immersive Sim. Så hvis “System Shock” ikke var blevet lavet, havde vi nok aldrig fået ikoniske spil som “Dishonored”, “Bioshock” og “Dead Space”. Remaket af “System Shock” startede faktisk som en Kickstarter-kampagne tilbage i 2015, som hurtigt fik vind i sejlene. I maskinrummet var der dog større problemer. Det skulle oprindeligt være udkommet tilbage i 2017, men det endte med at blive udskudt hele 6 gange – blandt andet fordi man skiftede til Unreals grafikmotor midt i processen. Sidste år, i 2023, udkom spillet endelig til PC og fik store roser verden over. Nu, et år efter, er spillet også udgivet til konsol, og det har givet anledning til at se, om “System Shock” er et værdigt remake af et så ikonisk og betydningsfuldt spil – eller om anmeldere verden over har spillet søm. Nu skal vi nemlig anmelde remaket af “System Shock”. Med i denne episode er Lau Mellemgaard Eskildsen, David Darville og Morten Urup.

In this episode Josh and Bryan play the aggressively random, and often unbeatable “Immersive Sim for People Who Hate Immersive Sims”, Mosa Lina by Stuffed Wombat. Its a unique experience that markets itself as a response to the current trend of Immersive Sim design, where abilities are often part of a "Lock and Key" system, where every ability is a tool that is meant to overcome a single type of problem. Mosa Lina's randomness guarantees that the player will need to make use of whatever tools are currently at their disposal to retrieve (or destroy) their target and return to the start. Its a brave experimental approach that speaks not only to the developer's design ethos but also to their commitment to the goal of the project. So join Josh and Bryan as they struggle, sometimes helplessly, to surmount the challenges and discuss the merits of Mosa Lina!Three Word Reviews: Bryan - Relax and ResolveJosh - Spirit of Play

On commence cette saison 5 dans la continuité de la précédente en parlant Immersive Sim, et un des meilleurs exemples récents, c'est le PREY de 2017 que nous a donné Arkane Austin. Et comme c'est la nouvelle année, bah bonne année à vous ! Un épisode dans lequel il est question d'une station spatiale, d'une petite chose métamorphe et d'une opinion modérée de Paul. Et si vous voulez qu'on arrête de forcer, venez sur le discord !

Immersive Sim-genren har mycket att tacka Deus Ex för. Här kunde spelaren tackla banor på många olika sätt: genom att prata med karaktärer, smyga sig runt, skjuta sig fram, hacka datorer och robotar och ta till sig information från nyhetssändningar och tidningar."Gud ur" indeed.Gäst: Niklas Sintorn

Today on the 5: Years ago I dismissed the video game Prey thinking it was something that just wasn't for me. I largely forgot about it until a few weeks ago when I came across this fantastic video detailing how it was a well made immersive sim. After seeing that, I jumped into the game and I boy was I a dummy for waiting this long.

This week we continue our retrospective on Deus Ex, the seminal Immersive Sim.

Prey (2017) takes the immersive sim worldbuilding, level design and freedom of expression that Arkane Studios had been honing through the years, transfers it to a sci-fi space station full of shapeshifting aliens, and sets you loose to figure out what the hell is going on. The result is....peak video game, as far as this host is concerned. And to help break it all down, I've enlisted the help of both hosts of Friday Night Gamecast, Nick and Will.

System Shock was an early example of a game that thrust you into a fully realized world, with a backstory, seamless travel between areas and interlocking systems.

Looking Glass Technology did what Id didn’t. The plan for their 1994 immersive first-person shooter was on the face of things quite similar to Romero and Hall’s vision for Doom: A story driven, action packed, seamless open world adventure through a space station.

Paul Neurath took a look at the dungeon crawling landscape and knew he could do better. He wanted something immersive and fluid that you could lose yourself in. What he and his team ended up creating was the first texturemaped 3D first person game. Not only that it is considered the first immersive sim, with […] The post S2 E10: Ultima Underworld first appeared on Gameography Podcast.

Son nom est Snake. Naked, Snake. A l'occasion de ce 3ème opus de la série Metal Gear Solid, Hideo Kojima et son équipe ont revu leur formule. D'abord en changeant de décor : exit les complexes militaro-industriels, bonjour la jungle luxuriante, pour une mission sauvetage sur fond d'espionnage en pleine guerre froide. Puis en se focalisant sur la survie en milieu hostile, entre serpents cuits à la broche et cautérisation des plaies à la poudre. Reste toujours la touche Kojima, qui assure des cinématiques qui passent sans cesse du "WTF" au "Meh", mais aussi et surtout des séquences de jeu qui font place à l'expérimentation, avec une liberté d'approche qui n'est pas sans rappeler l'Immersive Sim. Et y'a The End. Et The Sorrow. Et The Boss. Fin Du Game se fond dans vos oreilles pour un nouvel épisode. What a thrill...

Ivar Hill is the brain behind Core Decay, an immersive sim set to be published by 3D Realms. We’re talking about everything from Core Decay’s roots in retro FPS games like Doom & Quake, immersive sims like Deus Ex & System Shock 2 to Ivar’s experience around the free-to-play model and where the gaming industry is heading. // Ivar Hill: https://twitter.com/ivarhill // Core Decay: https://coredecay.com/ // 3D Realms: https://3drealms.com/ // Ivar on Quakecast: https://quakecast.podbean.com/e/quakecast-47-ivar-hill-core-decay/ // In The Keep: http://inthekeep.com/ // Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/InTheKeep)

In 1994 the immersive sim genre was born with the release of System Shock.  Developed by Looking Glass Technologies, it set the standard for gameplay and story structures for future games in the genre such as Thief, Deus Ex, Bioshock or Prey.  As an unnamed hacker, you awake on a space station after a long cryosleep only to find the halls littered with bodies and the walls smeared with blood.So begins your journey on board the Citadel Space Station, as you try to thwart the evil Shodan and piece together what exactly happened in the 6 months that you were asleep.But for all its innovation more than 25 years ago, is System Shock still a fun game to play today?  Its User Interface has more in common with a flight sim than a first person shooter.  Enemy hitboxes are literal rectangular boxes that extend far beyond their model.  And while the game is in first person, it requires you to constantly switch into point and click adventure mode to interact with the world.  Does System Shock do the immersive sim genre proud, or does the experience come across as outdated and clunky?On this episode, we discuss:How well does System Shock handle worldbuilding?  Do its terse audio logs add to the gameworld, or do they leave it feeling lifeless and gamey? How enjoyable are its shooting mechanics? Is it wrong to compare System Shock to a game like Doom?Is the user interface hot garbage that deserves to be burned to the ground, or does it secretly give the player greater control over its economy of information?In order to answer these questions, Pat and James are joined by special guest Nick from the Salt City Gamescast who was very excited to come along to argue, discuss and complain about the game!Has System Shock stood the test of time? Tune in to find out!

Ali finally gets his way as we discuss Prey, the massively underrated and mostly forgotten 2017 immersive sim that managed to marry sci-fi scares to open-ended gameplay. We discuss the finer points of the Immersive Sim genre while trying to figure out why no-one will play our favorite games. For the record: I did install Hitman and I'm gonna play it.

In this episode, Nintendo continues to disappoint, Microsoft continues to excite, and Coronavirus continues to spread... Show Notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ti2YHTkP8SykCFFbz3TaqakfS7IE0BWT6Mhcz5TuJhQ/edit?usp=sharing

We're back on our bullshit, again! If there was one other genre (aside from Soulsbornes) that we had to talk about here at Waypoint Radio, it is of course the Immersive Sim. An we would be remiss if didn't bring back Danielle to talk about the best Immersive Sims of the last decade! Join Austin, Cado, Danielle, Patrick, and Rob as they drill down into genre definitions, defining moments, and the future of the genre. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

 Immersive simy – czym są? Czym nie są? Czemu są? W tym odcinku omawiamy „Dishonored: Death of the Outsider”, co jest punktem wyjścia do ogólnej rozmowy o niezbyt dobrze zdefiniowanym gatunku immersive simów. Próbujemy dojść do tego czym są, czym nie są, co w nich cenimy i jaka czeka je przyszłość. Propozycje kolejnych tematów odcinków możecie przysyłać nam pod adres goracekrzesla@podsluchane.pl. Do usłyszenia!

 Tylko tchórze korzystają ze strategii. Gry strategiczne to ogromny i niezwykle zróżnicowany gatunek, obejmujący wszystko od szachów, przez różne starwarcrafty, po rozmaite erpegowe hybrydy. Dlatego stwierdziliśmy, że świetnym pomysłem będzie próba omówienia tego wszystkiego w ramach jednego, niezbyt zresztą długiego odcinka. Co lubimy w tym gatunku? Które jego odmiany preferujemy? Co myślimy o plugawej praktyce savescummingu i w jakim stopniu sami z niej korzystamy? I dlaczego? To wszystko – i jeszczeRead more

Harvey Smith is a mensch. Not only has he been a lead or director on some of the most inspiring and foundational Immersive Sim games of the last 20 years, he's also just a sweet, friendly, thoughtful guy who's great to talk to and has a wonderful southern accent. And lucky you, last time I talked with him, I had my recorder turned on! Hear insight on everything from the advent of the System Shock and Deus Ex series, up through modernizing those concepts into Dishonored, and beyond.

Back in March we sat down with Ricardo Bare & Raphael Colantonio (who has since left Arkane) about the difficulty in designing immersive sims, and the long journey both they and the Prey IP took to get to this point.

We talk about: What does the term “Immersive Sim” really mean? Also: about how Billy Lurk’s outsider status alters her perspective and the way she interacts with a similar setting.

We’re trying something different with the Friday episodes of Waypoint Radio. One, Danielle is the host! Two, the discussion is framed around a single topic. That doesn’t mean we won’t talk about games we’ve been playing (or big news), but generally, this is the new format. In the future, we’ll be announcing topics in advance, so you can weigh in with questions. On today’s episode, the future of the immersive sim genre (aka Deus Ex, Dishonored, Prey) is explored by Danielle, Rob, Austin, and Patrick.

Videospielspezial 26 Besuch im Kompendium! Diesmal handelt es sich um Ben von Dailydpad, den fleißige (und vor allem strapazierfähige) Hörer natürlich bereits aus unserer Geburtstagsepisode kennen, und der, zusammen mit dem jungen Michael, von Texanern in den Weltraum geschickt wurde. Dort sind die beiden nun an Bord der Raumstation Talos I immersiert und einer Aliengefahr ausgesetzt, die es mit allen verfügbaren und möglichen Mitteln zu bekämpfen gilt. Dabei geht es natürlich um das 05.05.2017 erschienene "Prey" von ihren guten Freunden bei Arkane Studios. Dabei wird zuerst möglichst spoilerfrei darüber geredet, damit sich auch interessierte Hörer ein Bild darüber machen können, ob sich das fünfte Spiel des Entwicklers für sie denn lohnt (es lohnt sich), worum es dabei eigentlich geht, und ein bisschen Hintergrundinformationen zur sogenannten "Immersive Sim" bekommt ihr auch noch gratis dazu! Danach gibt es dann, nach einer Ankündigung, den Spoilerteil, in welchem sowohl genauer auf die Handlung als auch die Gameplay-Mechaniken des Spiels eingegangen wird und noch das ein oder andere Lanzenlager für das Sci-Fi-Abenteuer gebrochen wird, Michael tatsächlich erst einmal vergisst, über den wunderbaren, von Mick Gordon komponierten Soundtrack zu schwärmen, und in dem nicht einmal lange Ladezeiten sie davon abhalten können, das Spiel selbst in einem von großartigen Titeln gekrönten Jahr wie 2017 als herausragend zu bezeichnen. Also findet das Passwort, packt die Klebstoffkanone aus und verwandelt euch beim Hören nicht in eine Tasse!

This weekend, we are still obsessed with Prey, the Immersive Sim in Space that could. We also chat about other fine games: like Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex, and we close out with a discussion of TV shows we're not 100% sure we like—it sure is an Idle Weekend, folks!
