never even heard of it tbqh
imagine making this thread
>earthbound but with a shitty hipster self insert and has no charm from earthbound... and its shit
need I say more?
look at how hard his brain is shielding him from considering even the slightest possibility that maybe his game is shit
he's right though. the entire games market is shit. he's the saviour we don't deserve.
There's a word for it: cognitive dissonance. He can't accept that he put all that work into a shitty game so he has to rationalize the hate it got in stupid ways.
Andrew you ok buddy?
There's always a next time cheer up
Oh im sorry your shit niche hasn't been filled yet.
You can't make a postmodern rpg you retarded fuck.
>Yea Forums siding with resetera

>it's SHit BeCaUsE it's ARt YoU JusT donT GET IT
I know a really pretentious wannabe pseudo intellect IRL who would eat this shit game up and pretend it's deep and meaningful simply because it self describes as "postmodern"
He's one of those tiring and annoying types who just depresses everyone with that bullshit nihilism crap and endless amounts of frankly pretentious and tiresome philosophical shit
Fuck I hate him so fucking much, fuck you "C"
drakengard thread? whats your favorite ending?

you talking Drakengard 3?
i hate it/love it simply because zero is something i could only which to protect before she fucking slices me up to bits
he sounds fucking based though Op you fucking faggot
lol its a sham, you know hes fucking fuming because his shitty game failed so hes trying to sound as smart as he can so his rage doesnt reveal itself
Never heard of this game
>bullied into silence by a sperg
Unlikeable characters are hard to do. Even in literature legitimately good books like the catcher in the rye or even a confederacy of dunces are divisive because the main characters are unlikeable pieces of shit. In video games this is even harder because you play as that character, and most people self-insert to some degree.
Also that's the least of Yiikes problems. Game is just a badly written wannabe Earthbound with an awful battle system that plays like a downs syndrome Mario & Luigi with shitty Warioware minigames, with a plot that tries too hard to be deep. It has some nice ideas and I even kind of like the art style, but the final product is a complete mess.
>they are toys
That's true but toys don't have to be meaningless, if he realized sooner he could have made a good game and added a story unto it.
He's just not worth the headache so I've learned to just nod, go "hmm", pretend I'm listening, and then go away as soon as I can. Literally everyone else ignores him outright or avoids him. Unfortunately I'm too nice and I pity this guy a little, but my patience has run out. Drinks like a fish too. Not "funny ha ha" drunk but "oh shit not again get me out of here" drunk.
Max Stirner is funny because he appeals to both left a right wing spergs.
he's not wrong tho
"journalists" gatekeeping what's ok or not to talk about drag the medium down
arts shouldn't be restricted
Are you guys seriously so contrarian that you're now making out the idiot to be an innocent victim of SJWs and journalists?
resetera trannies breathe air. what do you breathe?
Arguing with spergs is like participating in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.
Good cuck, now keep making the billionaires even richer and happier

HOW DARE YOU INCELS NOT LIKE MY GAME I BET YOU VOTED FOR DRUMPF TOO

>Get cucked by some other dude
>Sperg in Yea Forums anonymously about it
If you weren't a beta loser just youd tell the guy to STFU, if he calls you a Nazi punch him in the face, he won't do it again.
He's not wrong until the part he thinks his game is misunderstood and not bad.
When you make something - a movie, music or a video game, or anything else - and that thing wasn't well-received, you should consult with some people and/or ask consumers what they liked/hated and work on that, on improving the thing you make, and not attackign someone else. It's fascinating how people these days don't understand that.
Reminds me of a presidental candidate of a certain country that lost the election to a guy who is supposedly ''stupid, ignorant, sexist and racist''. But then, again, what the hell were you expecting to happen after you called half of people in your country 'deplorables'?
I see this and I immediately hold no interest for the game.
Not that I had any but this looks like shit, and has VN elements.
Lazy.
>that one guy that talks so much and nobody can get a word in
>this goes on for half an hour
>Hey let the others talk too!
There, problem solved, why are you guys such pussies regarding social interaction?
Did he just assume that every art is automatically masterpiece or that just everything he do is masterpiece?
Either way, it feels like massive mental gymnastic to avoid cruel realization that he made shitty game and/or shitty art.
Did anyone on that interview stop him and refute his claim, or at least said a simple "nah dude, your game was shit, and thats why people dont like it", because I feel like an affirmation like that putting the whole genre down in order to justify why it wasnt succesful must have been interrupted by anyone listening, it seems impossible to believe anyone could hear that and just let it fly without trying to debate that extremely shitty point of view.
>so postmodernist he's straight up trying to spin his garbage as high art Le masses can't understand bullshit
DAILY FUCKING REMINDER

There is a key difference between a flawed character and a unlikeable character
Who cares about the difference? Most GTA protagonists are utterly unlikable and people love those games.
Holden Caulfield is a good boy and he dindu nuffin
Thats the nu-male\zoomer attitude. Its always other's fault, never mine. Im perfect, i create art and the people are too stupid to understand. Damn i wish somebody whack this guy.
Why do you keep making threads about this? Why are you obsessed with this game in particular? Are you the same faggot who kept making threads about this game years before release? Absolutely pathetic.
Why do you keep spreading fake news?
If you tell him to talk about something else he gets passive aggressive and catty, it's honestly pathetic, it's just not worth the headache, better to just let him talk at you while you do whatever it is you need to do and then gtfo. Why waste energy
>Are you the same faggot who kept making threads about this game years before release?
What the fuck
no bullshit, there was one guy on Yea Forums who kept spamming threads about this game before it released, even when there was zero news about it for YEARS
calling him autistic is an understatement
>I wanted to make a game about a guy who's a piece of shit unlikable character, who by the end of the game has to transform.
Oh, like Travis Touchdown. Except he was well written with interesting progression. You're not doing anything new, Allanson. Quit acting like people only play Mario games.
He does realize there is shitty "art" too, right? Like, you just don't hear about it because it's shitty. Only masterpieces are typically remembered. Or infamous ones, I suppose. He just created something blah that no one cares about but him.
There isn't a problem with videogames being art, but if you're going in with the mindset that you're the videogame Picasso and your game is going to enlighten the plebian masses, you game will be trash and you end up looking like an idiot.
You make videogames, not art. If your game so happens to become art, it does so through retrospect by the populace, not the developer. Do you think the programmers of Tetris and Pac-man set out with the goal that their game would end up on display in the Smithsonian? Fuck no, they just wanted to make a good fucking game. Because of how widely-played and cherished these games are, they became legendary, grew a following, gained age and history and thus became art. What kind of legacy is YIIK suppose to build, if the game has both trash gameplay and an unlikeable heroine?
TIL the God of War franchise flopped because people hated playing as Kratos and that's also the reason no RPG ever gives evil options, because people don't like being evil in games
Oh wait
I'm that guy.
But that's cos if I stay quiet half the spergs I hang out with just sit there staring at the ground and occasionally checking their phones.
It must be infuriating for the one or two other guys I know who do have worthwhile shit to say, but if they ever do tell me to stfu and let them talk then I would.
How many threads do we need for this retard?
He's a pseudo-intellectual who can't admit to being wrong and he isn't worth a single brain cell to remember he ever existed. Let's move on.
western devs have extremely inflated egos
they think they're gods just because they made some shitty game
>How many threads do we need for this retard?
No idea but the face there are 3 threads right now trying to defend this shitty game makes it seem like some retarded troll is just spamming Yea Forums
Either a troll shitposting or just the dev himself. Wouldn't be surprised if it was the latter.
>TIL
Did you get lost on your way to reddit?
Honestly this same logic can be applied to Yea Forums (and Yea Forums in general) and it's why I overall just give up mid-argument with people. There's no convincing them to see another side of things because people here are especially stubborn and think they're right even if they're objectively wrong. It's really fucking tiring even bothering anymore.
This. It's clear to me that this person doesn't understand that difference whatsoever, and frankly, shouldn't be writing characters like that to begin with. I doubt he got critiqued at all during the writing process, as those around him probably circlejerked him for how totally amazing and extremely creative he was despite these kinds of characters having been around for a long time, and done much better. I can definitely think of good examples off the top of my head of characters that you can very easily dislike at first, but over the course of the story you start seeing just who they actually are and why they're that way and learn to sympathize with their situations, and it isn't exclusive to villains or characters that are cynical assholes.
If you subtitle your game "A Postmodern RPG" I'm already rolling my eyes over what a pretentious sack who makes absolutely insufferable posts on TIGSource you are.
youtube.com
If you ever want to induce mild nausea upon yourself you could just watch some gameplay of it lol.
why are people called andrew the most depressing people to walk the earth
first dobson and now this sad sack
I mean, you could probably single it down to if your first name starts with the letter A
Never played Earthbound. Is it shit for attracting this type of fanbase?
>Is [game] bad because its fanbase is bad
Imagine being so assravaged that people didn't like your game you start saying this shit.
Embarrassing. I hope he realizes at some point.
>Wow how could people like, not understand my shitty "art" rpg!
>No I refuse to listen to the YEARS of various people criticizing the slow combat and shitty music
>no I wont listen to anybody except my twitter hugbox about how I should depict the 90s
>WOW WHY DIDN'T MY GAME SELL TO THE GENERAL AUDIENCE?
I feel like the earthbound meme needs to fucking stop. Its only praised because some faggot early LPers sucked it off and it was "rare" because of an overpriced limited print in the US, so barely anyone played it at launch initially. Its not bad by any means, but its not some fucking revolutionary RPG by any real metric outside of being less serious(On the surface mind you) and embracing weirdness in full. It was also very much a project meant to appeal to kids with fart and vomit jokes that were popular at the time, which made it stand out from its competition. When everyone makes an EB or Mother3-clone, yours isn't special anymore.
No. Earthbound is a genuinely extremely charming game with an incredibly unique atmosphere. All of the people imitating it and trying to put their own spin on it are the ones who have sullied its name.
Considering how ego-centric and self-important he is, he obviously won't. If he condemns the entire medium just because his own shitty game didn't get the recognition and love he was hoping for, he's clearly not mature enough to come to terms with it.
That there is a man who likes the smell of his own farts
"I wanted to be Haruki Murakami but I'm not" about sums it up
He got the composer for Secret of Mana to do music on this. What an absolute waste.
Maybe his game lacks incestuous dream rape
>Nobody likes unrelatable protagonists right?
>Thats why i made mine unlikable, to push boundries
>a boo hoo People didn't like my character at all though, it was too smart for gamers who just want perfect superheroes
what a twat.
Never mind the fact that there are groups of people who specifically roleplay as piece of shit assholes in RPGs that go around killing anyone who gets in their way
>I wanted everyone to think i was smart
>I wanted my game to be praised for being "deep and meaningful" just like X

ART IS NOT LIMITED TO HIPSTER BULLSHIT FAGGOT, ENTERTAINMENT AND FUN IS AN ART IN OF ITSELF, BUT YOU'D NEED TO PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ARSE TO SEE THAT WOULDN'T YA?
If people were shitting on your character before the game even came out, he's the wrong kind of unlikeable
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Yiik
I know nothing about this game or who made it but games absolutely ARE toys and they do make for shoddy art. Only children in denial and pseuds denies this.
didnt LISA do exactly this premise and the game was a huge success?
>implying toys aren't art
>Unlikeable characters are hard to do.
It doesn't even require writing...
If a character is just an ugly nigger they will be disliked. UNLESS, they are Uncle Ruckus and hate niggers even MORE than you do. Then they are quite likable.
I didn’t imply that.
Funny that he should call gamers children (which, by the way, is ignoring the fact that this is doubly insulting the *actual* kids that might play the game) and yet he's the one that lashes out like a manchild.
It's entertainment, nothing more and nothing less. If it's art is completely up to the person playing it, as that's entirely subjective. At its core it will always be entertainment above all though.
Most people can't appreciate Warhol's stuff, but it's still considered art.
the blades cutting are way too fucking long but it honestly looks like a pretty chill game otherwise.
Maybe a little slow, but I'm assuming this is a boss?
But I was really excited for the game. Then came the delays. And then the delays. And then it finally came out and I saw the gameplay. If your gameplay is shit, it's a hard pass, I don't care if it's indie or AAA. But seriously, upwards to 5 minutes to fight basic cannon fodder? 30+ minute boss fights? Get outta here with that. If I wanted a boss fight that took that long, I'd go join a MMO raid of an extreme-tiered boss.
>i made an art
You don't get to judge whether your own work is "art"
