    oh, a small but talented channel! you know, actually if you'd be willing to make something like it, i would be curious to hear your analyses of games more in depth, like a longer video where you dissect games and their design and what about you like them, or somesuch. i liked your thoughts in this one but it was a little short :) interesting to see how your channel will grow!
    (also don't mind the complaints of ai voice over, i honestly wasn't able to tell and it didn't mess with my experience of valuable information. i get your recording anxiety, do what works for you)

    Actually, tic-tac-toe is terribly balanced. The first turn of player X doesn't matter much, because Player X can always react to Player O. However, the first turn of Player O is game-defining: if you don't make a perfect move (which is always center, unless it's already taken - then you should take edge), Player X will always win by forking Player O in the next 2 turns if they play optimally. Even if you know all the perfect solutions, you can never win as Player O, as long as Player X pays attention to your placements. But if you know the perfect play as player X - you can always win if Player O makes unoptimal turn 1 move or at least end in a draw. This evens out if both players know perfect solutions (yes, the "high elo" players), making every game into a draw.

    • @thefckgd
      @thefckgd  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hmm... yeah, you're right, but most players don't overanalyse the game so... :D
      I also became discouraged with this game at some point when I grew up and realised that the only way to lose is if you sleep through your turn.
      So let's just leave this one to the inattentive people.

    Do NOT think like a CEO when making games. Corporations are short sighted and profit driven; and will only ever strive to put out slop that makes money. Every game design decision will become an optimization problem on how to make the game more like a casino, and less like a work of art (like optimizing the fun out of a game). Yes managing resources properly is important, but the incentives of a CEO and a game designer often compete (like a game), and the game is balanced in the CEO's favor because of the capitalist market, no matter how good the developers are (as seen with Tango gameworks).

    • @thefckgd
      @thefckgd  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's a good point, I think you're absolutely right about that, but still the industry requires us to have certain knowledge to, for example, rationalise our ideas and so on, so I think it's an important skill.
      And so in general, I support everything you said above, business often spoils games and people as well, that's just sad :C

      I talk the same way in real life, so I don't think we would have become good friends :)
      It's okay if it prevents you from enjoying the video, but I'm starting to get scared of this dislike of everything AI-related, I think it's some deep fear that machines will take our jobs or something.
      I don't know what it will be like in the future, but right now, it's still my content, my thoughts, my ideas.
      And AI is just a way to bring it to the masses because I can't record my voice for a number of reasons. A way to make it easier for people in some ways.
      And our future is going to be filled with smart machines one way or another.
      I don't know. What do you think about that?

      The ability to recognise the principles of game design is a basic skill for a game designer, you won't even be considered for a job if you don't know how to do it.
      It helps to identify what players like, what to focus on when developing a game, I don't see how this can be a bad thing.
