TG and PF totally contradict each other don’t get why one likes both.
Quoted from HoakyPoaky:But when LCD screens came along, I feel some companies & programmers have just taken it too far.
I think PF has taken it too far with noscreen. It’s just the oppsosite of TG and that’s ok bc lots of lcd games have released I would be surprised if the success of PF will be a trend reversal but what speaks for it noscreen cuts a lot of cost and frees dev time for other areas.
JJP is the godfather of lcd. LCD is made for very deep rulesets with multiple layers for that you need multiwindowed visuals to send info you can’t display that on the playfield or on callouts. DMD can’t do that that’s why JJPs Einstein move with lcd it took pinball out the middleages into the 21st century.
I agree in that regard though that on flatter code meaning from all other manufacturers an lcd is not needed bc it then „only“ provides visuals without any game info. Still can’t even imagine missing visuals on those games but that’s question of taste. Imo visuals are needed even more on flatter code to make the experience richer.
