Supports, Tricky To Design (Hero Shooter Game Design)
Hey! I go by somePhoenix and my YouTube channel recently passed its one year anniversary! To celebrate I'm trying to host a Q&A followed by a year in review for the channel and a reaching out for feedback. If youre at all interested in submitting a question, you can send one directly to [email protected] and I'll get back with replies and a year in review in a month or so.
Anyway, in this video I tackle the Support Role accross the Hero Shooter genera in the hope that I can provide some answer as to why, no matter where you look, the role never feels quite right.
I make video essays analyzing the game design behind some of my favorite games, so if that interests you, consider leaving a like, subscribing, and sticking around!
