I still can't use this. Posts: 6,546 Group: Former Monarchs Member #6,722 Joined: March 16, 2008	Depends on what game it is I'm making. Give me a genre and I'll tell you what I'd try to focus on first. xP

I object to your claims Posts: 15,025 Group: =SB= Queens Member #9,640 Joined: January 9, 2009 Gender: Female Country: United States of America 3DS Friend Code: 1891-1489-0768 Nintendo ID: Agent_Blaire Game Currently Playing: Yoshi's Island	ַרņņרŗ Mar 10 2012, 01:54 PM INB4 gameplay. But that's what I WOULD focus on the most. Because even if a game has a fantastic storyline, well-orchestrated music, clever level design, well-done graphics and art style, if the gameplay sucks than the game will be an utter waste of time and money.

I'dbe tempted to do something like Bastion though; having a narrator with the smoothest voice on the planet weaving the tale as you play. Awwww man, Rucks, your voice was the best. <3

Let's not forget what Yahtzee sang of Deus Ex: "It's a shooter, and a role-playing game. The levels are ugly, and e'eryone looks the same,"

Christmas is back again Posts: 17,411 Group: Former Monarchs Member #348 Joined: December 9, 2006 Gender: Male Steam ID: Warzak85DF	How am I supposed to choose when all categories have some sort of valid use. There are various aspects of a game I'd probably would've chosen depending on it's genre. For instance, a platformer would've had level design as my utmost crucial part, such as create an easy enough flow partaking in running through obstacles. Sure that's relevant a Sonic title I'm picking on, but most of the time, I'd say level design. However when it comes to RP's. I'd definitive say Story, then Characters and last but not least length of game. Because you wouldn't be able to thrive getting to know the crowd, before the story finishes. So in all honesty, I'd say most of them are important, so picking one out of them all, is rather a jiffy when I don't know what game I'm making, but let's say it is an RP. Then I have to say Story.

Besides Gameplay for the sake of this case is already covered when you're making a game. I excluded gameplay because I knew everyone would vote for that because it's a fact that gameplay's the most important.
