054: Blending Story and Gameplay (Yakuza: Like a Dragon)

Game:

•  Brief comparison to The Legend of Dragoon 
•  Blending Narrative and Gameplay
•  Job System
•  Character Personalities
•  Summons
•  Adding flavor to classic mechanics
•  Like a Dragon combat vs standard Yakuza combat

 Develop:

•  The purpose and weight of a story
•  The purpose and weight of gameplay
•  Is this immersion?
• My development:
  •  A major test drive of indie game dev
  •  Godot is amazing
  •  TileMap, Terrain, Animator
  •  Still have a lot to learn

 Repeat:

•  Does your gameplay have any connection to your narrative, or your characters?
•  What is the most compelling part of your game? 
• What would you like to be the most compelling part?

 Tip:

•  Comparison is not strictly necessary to learn from something. Do not compare yourself to others excessively.
