EA Exec: "Our Games Are Too Hard To Learn" - briefly
(hx) 07:57 AM CET - Feb,06 2015 - Post a comment / read (3)
GameSpot is reporting that Richard Hilleman from Electronic Arts told the audience at D.I.C.E. that he thought their "games are actually still too hard to learn."
Tonight at the D.I.C.E. Summit in Las Vegas, Electronic Arts chief creative officer Richard Hilleman spoke about how video games today are often too hard to learn for new players.

"Our games are actually still too hard to learn," Hilleman said during during an on-stage interview with other developers. "The average player probably spends two hours to learn how to play the most basic game."

"And asking for two hours of somebody's time--most of our customers, between their normal family lives...to find two contiguous hours to concentrate on learning how to play a video game is a big ask," he added.

Hilleman's comments came in response to a statement from interviewer Pete Holmes, the comedian, who said he would prefer that controller layouts and button maps stay the same for future installments in established series and even across franchises.

Also on-stage for the interview was Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor design director Michael de Plater, who said he thinks we'll see more and game games adopt RPG systems in the future.

"Every game is an RPG now," he said. "You wouldn't make a game without progression and levels and XP. And I think every game is going to be a social game...good ideas propagate."

That's pretty far from "our games and our platform, Origin still suck".
Just keep on following the breadcrumbs and you will get there.

What the...? Games are already stupidly easy and hold your freaking hand as it is. Dumbing them down even further is nonsense.

People play games because of the extended experience. It's not like watching a movie, investing an hour or two to pick up the basics is fine. What a jackass.

I think there are too many "secret" things you can do in these games and it turns a lot of people off. A lot of people just want to jump on for a few hours and play and have fun but it's always the same thing in these games, it's more a matter of "how much you know" rather than a match of skills. BF1942 was the last fun BF for me.
