Report article Ideas guys: Why not?

Posted by penguinfantasimo on Apr 4th, 2009 digg this super bookmark


Its weird, I have gotten a couple of people saying that "Idea guys" are frowned upon. Well what if its a good idea, like a Greek open-ended FPS with a fallout 3/ES IV feel? I mean come on you could have attributes like: God killer, or Ares's kiss. Or something. That shizzit would be EPIC. And of course my goal is to make sure we use free open-source software, just to prove that Corporate shit sucks.... But, if you support a Greek fps like fallout 3, give me a shout :D

Because if you are an idea guy you will not be able to help the ones that are actually doing all the work.

For instance if I would help you with *your* game. You would only say "yes uhm it would ge great to have a bazooka". That's 5 mins of *thinking* while I still have to:
- model
- unwrap
- texture
- animate
- code

-> That's the problem with idea guys, they think idea's are enough. And can't/won't contribute to the rest of the work.

If however you say you are going to take on other roles like mapping/coding/texturing/... the guys will not be "nay" sayers.
