I left little critiques on lots of game trailers so here's a thread with the most common issues (and additional reading) ๐งต
1. Don't put logos at the start. It's just dead air that could be gameplay, which is 100000000X more interesting.

But damn the blocks can be *really* hard to snap together. I had to stop last night because it was destroying my fingers. The chasm between Lego and everyone else is wide.

Thanks. It was a difficult start. A lot of "What could the old man know if he's starting now?" energy for the first few weeks. The first projects were submitted and they realised 20+ years in software design, development and management actually counted for something even though it wasn't games ๐

They slapped the Star Wars moniker on it to try and make it palatable. I'm surprised they didn't end with The Chewbacca Defense to distract from the creative bankruptcy.

Let's do it as a thread. I've not done an informational thread on here before, interested to see how folks like it.

I'm a big #TRON and Legacy fan. Legacy in 3D is ๐ฅ Really looking forward to Ares (and the upcoming #TRONCatalyst by @bithellgames.bsky.social ! ) but damn if that one shot in the trailer doesnt smack of that one shot from Morbius.

We've reported it to Valve, but could use your help!

I know Xbox doesn't have the foothold in Japan it deserves, but the import market must also exist for 3D blurays to support them being produced in Japan/EU. It guess it was mostly a wish fulfilment question, but with genuine undertones.
