    dear indie developers: stop putting mazes in your horror games

    like, you do realize that mazes are easily solvable, right? you just have to follow the right-hand wall and you'll get to the exit

    it only serves as padding, and not good padding because the solution is so simple

    i tried that in a labyrinth in zelda and as it turned out the maze had multiple completely distinct blocks, and there was no goal in the first block i tried. i still looked through it three or for times, not understanding my folly

    I remember being really annoyed with a certain Cardcaptor Sakura episode because they end up in a maze and Tomoyo mentions that you can solve mazes with the right-hand rule but then instead of doing that they proceed to fix it through MAGIC.

    I mean you can also defeat it with multiple floors and stuff. I forget when the right hand* thing works, i think just if the space is euclidean

    Yeah, it's true that you can easily develop a maze that isn't easily solvable with the right-hand thing.

    But, uh...the kind of game developers I'm complaining about here...don't. They just throw in basic, easily-solvable mazes as filler and then wonder why people grumble about it.
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    In the maze in LA Noire, I followed the right-hand-rule and just got lead back to the entrance.

    The goal was to reach the center, you see

    Hey, Hex-kex, is there any place I can watch the part of your Fable stream that I missed? Like, some Youtube Channel like Northernlion does?

    There's an archive of the stream on my page!
  • you should get a youtube channel so you can export the VODs. It takes like 15 minutes and you don't have to actually do anything.
  • I'll have to do that soon.

    Idk I've just been craving an action RPG to veg out to lately but the only ones I can think of (Kingdoms of Amalur and Fable) rub me the wrong way in some major respect

    What was wrong with Kingdoms of Amalur?

    Not that I played much of it but it seemed okay from the bit I did play, so I'm just kind of curious.

    That said, have you played Dragon's Dogma? It's nooooooooooot a perfect game but it's got a lot of fun things that I wish other similarish games did.

    Weirdly enough, given that Kingdoms of Amalur is a fairly forgettable game from five years ago, I have also had it on my mind recently. I never got very far, but I liked what I played and I have been in the mood for That Sort of Game...

    Not enough to pay money for the PC version, though, and my 360 copy (and my 360) are in another city. Oh well.

    didn't the maze shift around or something when she tried the right-hand rule?

    (also that only works if the maze doesn't have a loop in it)

    Maybe. I could be misremembering the episode.

    Is that true? It's 2:30 AM so there might be something I'm not thinking of, but I don't see how you could get stuck in a loop while following the right-hand wall, assuming there is a reachable exit at all. You'll leave the loop facing the opposite way of how you entered, and as a result go a different way.

    It doesn't work if the goal is somewhere in the middle or if things get nonplanar, but for your standard "in one side, out the other" type maze I'm pretty sure it always works.
  • Sup bitches, witches, Haters, and trolls.
    Sakura and co started out in the middle of the maze so that analysis doesn't work for time reversed reason compared to the one you gave
  • Oh, well, fair enough.

    Just forgettable brain dead high fantasy that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Also made by Curt "garbage man made of garbage" Schilling's company.

    Also I totally own DD and forgot about it.
