Video Title: Avoiding Comparison [Planning & Game Design]
私が作るものに限らず何か斬新なゲームが 発表された場合必ず言われるのは既存作品 に当てはめて何々のようなと言ってしまう 形容 です人は何かに当てはめないと認識ができ ません見たことも聞いたこともないものに 対する経営は難しいしとりあえずどこかに 寄せた見解を持たないと情報を持ち帰る ことも難しいです発表された時でさえこれ です全く作り始めていないゲームを企画書 段階から正確に伝えることのなんと難しい ことかこの段階で新しく作るゲームのこと を知ってるのは企画者ただ1人相談し ながら作られた場合いいところその情報 共有スタッフのみですこれからいろんな ところにプレゼンをかけ内容を理解して もらわないといけません企画の見込みが ないとと判断されたら費用も出ないし スタッフもアサインされず流れてしまい ます逆に言えばうまいプレゼをしていくと 味方が増えていきますそのためにできる ことは色々あるのですが今回は1点だけ人 は既存のものにしか尺度を持てませんなの で何々のようなという風に説明してしまい がちだけどそれはなるべく我慢してやめ ましょうということ です企画者じゃないえプレゼンを聞いた人 が何々のような感じと捉えるのは自由です だけど企画する側が言うのは避けたいその 理由は2つありますまず何らかの作品に 類似性を持たせるぐらいならオリジナルを 遊んだ方が良いということ何らかの作品を 両店に売りにしていいのは続編ぐらいな ものです企業なら類似疑惑に対するえ対抗 策をわざわざ考えることも避けたい でしょう次に何々のようなという形容は 世代や経験によってだいぶ違うということ 例えばマリオと一言で言ったとしても ファミコンのスーパーマリオを 思い浮かべる人もいればマリオで背当たり を思い浮かべる人もいます場合によっては キャラクターとしてのマリオかもしれませ ん世代が異なれば常識や知っていることも 異なるのであんまり自分の経験も尺度にし ない方が良いです ね何々のようなという形容は情報共有に 便利な言葉ですから場合によっては適用 する相手にはどんどん使っても良いのかも しれませんしかし実際にはそのも差しから え外れたところに正解があります企画書で も完成品でも独自の良さが滲むよう頑張っ てみてください ね H

The Donkey Kong boyfriend was hillarious.
didnt consider this perspective, but it does make a lot of sense
👍!
Based Sakurai telling people to stop calling every game “the Dark Souls of…”
amazing advice, thanks sakurai!
Avoid the word like
It shouldn't be like something and they shouldn't like the game they should love the game
This one, may be a bit harder to understand😅 I get what your saying but It can be a strength if used right, I understand that it can cause a level of issues if use improperly but after seeing other games succeed by wearing its inspiration on sleeve it will be hard to go through a project without doing the thing you want us to prevent maybe that's just me but I will do my best to resist.
shoutouts to the guy who thinks Paper Mario 64 when asked to Think Mario
Kid Icarus!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many indies need to see this. I can't tell you how many times I've seen "inspired by game X" or "akin to game Y" on Steam pages. It even sours me on games I like because that phrasing on a Store Description implies your game is just derivative.
Honestly, im suprised Sakurai still hasn't talked about how licensing works in the Video Game Industry. It's a very crucial part when wanting to go through the process on bringing in Guest Characters into Fighting Games, and what their chances are on coming back to the next sequel. Hopefully Sakurai will make that video before the next smash game comes out, lol.
One type of comparison I think is worth mentioning yourself is when a game has a specific mechanic you would like to develop a game around, for example, let's say there is a mining game with 3 mechanics: getting the minerals, exploring the caves, and selling the minerals you get, and the main one is about getting the minerals while the other 2 are afterthoughts, you may say "I want the fundamental mechanic to be about selling the minerals, this is how we start, but these are the ways in which we can expand the concept and make it more engaging", after all, you are explaining why your idea can be better while at the same time matching sure people understand why it won't compete with the game you compare it to.
Well, now that i watched the video, Pizza Tower had no one to propose to but fans of a game with an small install base so there is that.
As someone whose done tons at Nintendo, who thrive off creating creative titles consoles, and peripheral to a near obtuse degree, it makes sense for Sakurai to say not to make comparisons, especially since a lot of marketing tends to go for the comparison route. I make the mistake doing this describing games to friends, but it does depend on that demographic to convey such examples. Maybe a fully detailed description might hinder conversation, but it’s probably better than the alternative.
Once again l, Sakurai w/ words of wisdom
This is one of the more difficult things to pull off, but I'll still keep this in mind.
Also, I'm convinced you also made this so you can show the world your Donkey Kong gijinka design.
Its interesting to think of how comparison wrecks or helps games overall. Games like Multiverses and NASB fail since they only live as a comparison to Smash Bros, while games like Skyrim or Zelda live on based on their unique identities despite being very similar games to each-other in every way
The "cozy" farming games genre in a nutshell
tfw no DK bf 😔
I haven't started my journey as a developer yet, but this advice is VITALLY IMPORTANT to take because I've been stressed out about my own sense of originality when I see other games coincidentally have the same idea or concept I thought up, just focus on what you know.
0:17 This interaction is immediately hilarious
2:12 I appreciate that this includes Paper Mario 64, that was actually the first Nintendo game I took interest in, and that I played! The graphics still hold up today!
