NOOOOOOOOOOO Yea Forums YOU CANT FORGET ABOUT ME

What was so bad about the ending? The endless stream of boring looking minigames during combat turned me off.

Guys, we need to leave right now! Oh god it cannot fucking be! GUYS THIS IS URGENT IT'S A FUCKING GOLDEN ALPACA! RUN!

>a game made by some dudes just because they wanted to
>no money-grubbing kickstarter
unironically genuine, remember when this place wasn´t a cesspool of layers upon layers of irony?

1999 because the actual Y2K "incident" is apparently a plot element

it's also genuinely trash

Because I'm sure you don't want to hear the long version, I'll just give you the short version.

Basically the game just gives up everything it has set up in it's premise, breaking the rules it has established and just to run away from the shitty ending, the dev made a "secret ending" which is just as bad and then he says both are canon. Hell I even anticipated something along the lines of the end, but the way the game handled it was so fucking shit that I started finally hating the game. When you make a story driven game like that, that has plenty of problems, then you don't want to drive away the few people who liked it by having an ending like it. GOD DAMN.

did it pull a "just a dream" ending?

Obviously, since it´s done by a team of guys who just want to make a game they want to do, but don´t have enough experience, as they released only one game previously with a completely different genre, to actually give the game enjoyable combat

This game really wants to be Earthbound

No it didn't. The game establishes at one point how there can be no more than one same person in the same universe at the same time, but if a person leaves the universe, another them can take their place by coming to that universe. No more than one though. Then in the end the game just comes out and says "lol this one character was actually you the whole time and s/he has been using you for their own goals." Also all the other characters get thrown out and you never see them again, even though they have a big presence during the second last chapter. There's a lot of shit about the end but I'm just trying to purge it from my memory.

The secret end is even shittier, you finally find this girl that went missing at the start after wandering in some office building listening to inane shit and then the game just ends. Good thing I never spent a cent on this game.

Alex gets help from another reality version of him (You) to fight the real Alex who destroys realities just because. Eventually (You) and Alex pull some plugs to beat him since he's invincible which causes everything to merge into You as one being or something.

that sounds dumb as fuck

I think what makes this plot twist especially bad is that the main character is an obvious self-insert. It sounds like the plot of The One, which is fine (albeit a little mediocre). But it becomes especially masturbatory knowing it's the author's self-insert. Almost like he's saying, "The only person strong enough to challenge me is me!!!"

The game was so embarrassing, some of the people who worked on it are private on social network sites. For the industry, thats bad

I wouldn't want to deal with Yea Forums memeing on me constantly either. He's smart to wait a few months before coming back to social media.

The japs like it though?

I got curious and started watching an LP of this game, and holy shit the main character is a gigantic fucking asshole. Why does he have to narrate parts of the story we can clearly see? Why is his internal monologue shoved in your face, and why is it VOICED?

Hell, he has scenes where he talks to 5 versions of himself all telling him to stop being such an asshole and immediately continues being an asshole.

>Holy fuck the boss battle was fucking bad and having a minigame for EVERY FUCKING OFFENSIVE AND DEFENSIVE ACTION was a bad decision
That's what happens when you're American and actually believe that Earthbound and SMRPG are the holy grail of RPGs and you probably liked Undertale too so bonus fag points for that..

Do they?

So anyone have a download link?

Yes? I´ll post the twitter art

To be fair the song was from before Undertale

This game was one giant buffet of problems you could feast on if ever you needed a reason to hate games that put an emphasis on story. It's baffling how they purposely got every single thing wrong, but you know they didn't do it ironically. They actually thought it was a good product, so it doesn't even have the post-modern defense that they touted on the title.

Ignoring everything else said in the sentence what does that even mean?

What? Can one person have macroaggressions?

"This game references events and drama in one's real life that I can relate to, especially about depression and angst about being a loser".

Why do all gingers look the same. Like people say that about a lot races but it only seems to be actually true for gingers. They are either fat with a beard, no glasses and short hair, or they are thin with a beard, longer parted hair, and thick rimmed glasses. They all look the same.

Those faggot devs are clueless, this shit isn't interesting. The timed attacks/dodges element from Mario RPG is nice, but making it so drawn out is obviously going to turn the mechanic into a chore.

holy shit the design of their site is shitty as hell. what happened to the old site?

isn't hg101 a crappy sjw site nowadays? no wonder it died

I honestly think the art direction is nice but the game has a wack ass story apparently. Also too many minigames in combat.

I've played all sorts of epic maymay earrape indie "games" made as jokes and shit like shrek adventures and sanic shit, and not for a small amount of time. Tons of trippy flashy eyerape stuff also. I've also played VR for hours with no nausea. Despite that, watching a video of this for just a few minutes made me feel physically ill, as in I had to lay down and just breathe and stare at the ceiling. I don't know what kind of witchcraft hex bullshit they put on this game but I am convinced it is heavily cursed.

Did they just have a dart board with random things on them and threw darts at it at random?

HC101 use to be good. Sure the articles were sometimes hack jobby, but you could tell that it was people who actually enjoyed games and wanted to write about them. I learned about quite a few off beat titles from the site (mostly PC-98 stuff)
Now it's people writing based on a quota for Patreon bucks and come off like they also work for Kotaku.

He's saying its "transphobic" because the name your parents gave you is wrong. Trannies like to pretend they've known they were whatever gender since birth.

Not an argument. They fucked up on so many levels, it's beyond being able to use "unexperienced" as an excuse. The game is shit. They messed up everything you can mess up in. Story, music, characters, artstyle, graphics and gameplay.
It's like they never actually tried playing their game themselves, because it's really not that hard to notice that it isn't fun to play.

What? Source?

Who are you?

Some twitter art doesn't mean the Japanese liked it.

The story and most characters are pretty good for most of the game, that only fucks up in the end. The athmosphere the game has is really good for the most part, which comes with the artstyle I can see dividing opinions. But yeah, most of the music is forgettable at best, the only real banger is what Toby Fox did, and the gameplay is pure slog even after you get EP Strike, figure out how to abuse Claudio and get Essentia.

It feels like a fever dream

She's a roastie

There's some easter egg where Vella and someone else come into the bar and talk about YIIK or something. I'm guessing the devs were friends or something?

So what are you trying to prove? The ending of story is one of the most important aspects of it. If that's the point where it fucks up the story is bad. Imagine reading a mystery story that builds up really interesting mysteries, great characters and all only to have an open end without anything being resolved? You would call it a shit story, wouldn't you?
And you already admitted that the music and gameplay are bad and the artstyle at the very least controversial and nothing special.
So basically that the game is shit.

The immediate line after he admits he’s not good at anything useful.

the ost has some good tracks, like protomichael´s forest, did you even listen to the whole soundtrack?
the story is purely a subjective matter, Yea Forums itself likes to circlejerk that story doesn´t matter

I kind of agree. Sure, the game is pretty shit, but there looks like a lot of work went into it, so I'll give them credit that they actually finished making it at least.

Ok I'll just call them tranny to be safe

It's been shilled for years, I wouldn't be envious of it getting publicity because it's been a bit of a forced meme. Any time an indie game becomes big before release there's a big chance it's just the developers being friends with journos.

That text box is pretty ugly. Drab colors, bad font/spacing. It's like they hired some guy for 3$ to do the UI.

The colors are at least selectable, but the rest is still pretty shit.

Shilled isn't really the word. People have been discussing it because on the one hand you have the sjws who feel betrayed that the game doesn't portray being a hipster faggot as a good thing and then on the other side you have the anons who just want to shit on the game no matter what because the MC is a hipster faggot. The only people who like this game are the people who don't need their protagonist to be "da coolest dude ever" Mary sue shits like Yuri/Ike.

The game takes place in present day time is just fucked because the reality is falling apart.

At least the art is good sometimes.

The devs were required to include Easter eggs to other games from their publisher Ysbyrd. The 2 devs have stated before that they didn't really want to do it, but had to.

I watched it for a while and I was surprised when I realized I was only four minutes in when it felt like much longer. That battle system really needs a lot of retooling.

Why do developers care to please people like this? They complain about games that they probably don't even play.

The moment someone got "triggered" it opened the floodgates for all the attention whores to out-offend eachother.

Wasn't their previous game an equally bad RPG?

People hate this game because they see their own reflection in Alex. He resonates with people to the point that they outright hate the idea that he's just as flawed as the person playing the game.

There's that, but also many other things like there being a ridiculous amount of filler, the battle system being fucking annoying, and apparently throwing away a potentially good plot near the end.

Honestly I have no knowledge of their previous game and only heard it in passing. If what you say is true, then I don't know what is going through their minds. I still stand by my statement. Making games ain't easy but feedback and self-reflection can go a long way when creating something.

Too bad another game did flawed anti-social protagonist learns how to open up and be a better person much better.

There were couple spots in the game where Alex was much more correct than the others, yet he still got chastised for it. But he was also written to be an unbelievable asshole at points and I don't think anyone could see themselves in him.

People dislike the game because the voice acting, the writing, the story, the soundtrack, the visuals and the basically everything is fever dream sensory abuse.

I don't remember the part in SMRPG that had you playing a minigame (not making a timed input or a few inputs, an actual minigame) for every single attack you use and the enemy uses, with aoes counting as many attacks.

Everything about this is nauseating and disorienting. I don't know how I would be able to play this for an hour without literally feeling physically sick.

It’s sad that good music is wasted on this trash game. The one song during one of the final bosses is awesome yet it will be forever associated with mediocrity.

lmao, serves these dumb faggots right.

>Aoes counting as many attacks

I think this is by far the biggest thing that slows the combat down but I also think people complaining about the combat being slow are dumb, Alex one shots everything as soon as he gets his last ability. Longest fight in the game is that god damn alpaca.

I am seeing way past that and the voice acting is awful
This game is so shit, somebody should make a sound webm of that part

How does a game consistently have unfitting battle music?

Man who saw Kirbopher and thought "yes, this would be an okay voice actor for the main character". Hell even Square was stupid enough to use him for Therion but at least his lines were so edgy that it almost worked

You can make it less worse by just asking the bird to pick the doors for you, but even with this you still get exposed with a lot of awful whistling.

Ah the "IF YOU HATE THIS BADLY WRITTEN CHARACTER, YOU HARE YOURSELF" strawman to deflect any legit criticism against him.

If you fuck up you basically do no damage. That's the best part.

I want to see you write a better one. I'll wait.

The battle music is ear bleed inducing here.

>"But you have to understand that I am telling you the true reality of the situation."
Nobody talks like this.

The difference between this and Shadow Hearts is that Shadow Hearts had a good fucking combo system.

Ending a chain with an up air usually allowed for the next character to combo them easily, but sometimes it didn't work if the enemy was too heavy to be up aired. Same with down smash, which worked better on light airborne enemies. Side smash did more damage if they were near a wall, and so forth.

The ring mini game was just a small part of Shadow Hearts gameplay. Though I admit, it was pretty fun when you got third eye and had to hit all 5 zones blind.

>I disagree, the problem wasn't the mini games but how long they took

Yeah, I brought that up in >I want to see you write a better one. I'll wait.

Are there really two secret endings?

Perfect.

Any person that claims to be a gamer is asking for a fish morphing ending.

whats the combat system like? i heard you need to do various minigames for attacking and defending
and thats what im trying to do im my rpg game but im afraid thats a bad idea

They don't, user.

They are not even proper human beings, try again.

It's not a bad idea, just don't go fucking overboard like this game does
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga hit the sweet spot

its not a bad idea, its just that this specific game makes them unfun and long, the minigame must be fast, specially if its a turn based game and dont mess with the pacing

You know how Paper Mario can have some longer moves that require more player input? Imagine that but longer and you can't fuck up at all or else the attack does absolutely nothing.

>whats the combat system like? i heard you need to do various minigames for attacking and defending
Yes

but the minigames are so fucking long that they artificially lengthen the battles by like 200%.

I mean fucking Shadow Hearts and Paper Mario got the combat minigames right by:
1. Being short
2. Being simple
3. Only using a small handful of them, on the case of Shadow Hearts, only one.

What these guys said, especially citing Superstar Saga. A button press or combination to accentuate the action that's already happening, or to block/dodge/counter is dandy. Switching to a completely different game for 30 seconds for every fucking combat action is not.

Why does this game have an imdb page?
Also does anyone know how old are those two faggots that made the game? Can't find anything about them.

The only game I see get the minigame and battle system together perfectly is The Desolate Hope.

so would that mean my warioware clone combat system will work?

>so would that mean my warioware clone combat system will work?

depends if the microgames are quick and you don't use too many different types of microgames.

It's a novel idea but you also need to handle how it's executed. YIIK does the execution badly to use it as a "what not to do" sheet.

I guess? can you show some gameplay?

If the only reason you're not doing regular turned based combat is to appeal to people who don't like turned based games or to make it "engaging," just bin the idea altogether.

This sounds like they used normal battle music for a boss ish encounter that doesn't fit the scenario. This is usually why games will have multiple boss/encounter tracks to play because this jazz stuff doesn't fit the cutscene that played just before it

>someone already thought of my idea
NOOOOO FUCK
I was thinking of a battle system where special moves and commands are completed through WarioWare like minigames (usually really fast and weird)

>depends if the microgames are quick and you don't use too many different types of microgames
2-3 seconds max, i dont know the optimal amount of minigames there should be
i just barely started making it
just wanted to try to do something unique

Neither the leggy meteor and the last battle are true final bosses bc they are uwinnable. The game dos not even hint that so you spend minutes on two pointless fights

No, it's what happens when you completely misunderstand what made Earthbound and co actually resonate well with people

That and being able to kill/stun it so easily too. Why make it seem like you couldn't stop it from happening when killing it wasn't hard to do but still require you to actually lose to it to continue.

this, they are just garbage in human form without value or goal in life and with a high probability of suicide after 30. Everyone should just ignore them

t. faggot with glasses and a beard

Generally speaking, the feeling that you're a kid going on an adventure around the real world with a quirky tone that doesn't push itself into WOW SO WACKY AND WEIRD like its imitators do. Hell, I'd even argue Undertale actually managed to replicate that feeling as you're just a lost child exploring a realm of monsters presumed to be malicious, only for almost all of them to be innocuous beings with quirky attitudes. Simply put, it's got a weird and zany tone without shoving it in your face as if that's all it's got going for it
YIIK completely misses the point by opting to purely go off of WOW SO WACKY AND WEIRD with shit like LEMONADE and the main premise of the girl being tossed into a random pocket dimension. Couple that with the fact that the cast is just a bunch of adults that lack any of the world integration Earthbound and UT had going for themselves. They also shove in combat minigames in order to stand out further but they clearly never considered how that'd affect the experience.

Not him, and I certainly don't speak for everyone, but part of why EB works in my mind is the fact that the characters are younger children. That is, it's the kind of adventure that someone that young who's in the midst of growing up with the likes of Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy would imagine themselves going on. Yahtzee's review of EB touched on something similar. It helps the weirdness work, too, because of how active kids' imaginations are. YIIK, on the other hand, looks like it's just trying to be quirky just for the sake of it, and the characters being older makes it feel less like a relatable childhood fantasy and more like Kingdom Hearts Parking Lot.

>black girl is actually cute in-game
Don't make me agree with the YIIK waifufag now.
