Thoughts on this game?

Reminder that this game somehow managed to have a cameo from Jill from VA-11 HALL-A and a track composed by Toby Fox himself.

I don't know nothing about the game, but at least they could have tried to make differents games for the arcade.

>toby fox has a twitter post to advertise the game early on
>deletes it

They wanted to support fellow indie developers. Little did they know that the game was created by someone who hates video games and the people who play them.

he should have hired zun instead

the game was literally advertised inside valhalla, if you don't remember.

tempted to edit the onions wojack face on that image

It was apparently because they triggered trannies by having a character ask you your birth name and he didn’t want to be associated with that drama.

A Literary "Tour de Force" ranking right up there with GAME OF THRONES by GEORGE RR MARTIN.

I actually liked the visuals, and weird theme of people trying to discuss and solve supernatural phenomenon over shitty oldschool internet forums.

Just fix some of the tonal inconsistencies and the incredibly slow pacing of the combat and it would have been fine.

And the ending. I don't get the ending. People shit on the protagonist all the time, but he clearly had a character arc regarding how shit he was. It just doesn't have real payoff with the way the whole story wrapped up. Or didn't wrap up.

The level design and graphical style have potential.
If they completely redid the battle system, pretty much all of the writing and at least half of the soundtrack it could be a good game

Well on the plus side ginger girls tend to be pretty cool.

Maybe we need less depression worship in this world. Like, maybe Bojack Horseman can just have one character page instead of a thesaurus on the various ways he's sad, self sabotaging, and selfish.

Amazingly, they made a game that pissed off everyone. SJW's hate it, Yea Forums hates it, youtubers hate it, normies hate it, literally everyone hates it.

The ending is the main character doing something selfless in complete defiance of how he exists in every other reality, but it still comes off as a bad ending so it feels unsatisfying.

Acknowledging that a character is flawed and/or needs to grow as a person doesn't have to be depression worship.

the overwhelming majority of entertainment is pandering power of friendship good triumps over evil garbage because people like you can't deal with being challenged and when there's any fad that deviates from this it gets negged by you whiny bitches for being harmful or edgy

I think the weirdest part about the ending tonally is that every character just simply disappears. Not just Alex, making some big heroic sacrifice to atone for his mistakes or to protect his friends. Everyone that the story revolved around just dies in-combat and is never brought up again.

He has a point that he made something unlikable.

The point isn't that people would dislike him or like him but that people want to only self insert. It's like when people feel that Spec Ops is directly attacking them

This is why self-inserts do not work in media like video games. You can have yourself or a self-insert as a minor or extra and they could help just a bit, but making them a main character makes you sound very unoriginal.

yeah, but videogames aren't art, and gamers want to self-insert

what does me wanting to insert into myself have to do with plagiarizing wikipedia?

y2k should have been the actual name. How dumb.

it has to do with you being an inveterate manbaby
you would insert into an evil person if it made you feel cool and you were never confronted with it, but the moment it makes you think about your actions the water works turn on

I don't know, I haven't played the game, but if a story driven game isn't some sort of Joseph Campbell hero archetype shit it's going to bomb

Self-inserts can also work as an otherwise unimportant punchline.

Amusing game title that lended itself perfectly to shitposting, almost feel bad for the creator because literally everyone was shitting on him. Western Persona/Earthbound is a decent concept but indie studios are definitely not capable of making it work.

So in short YIIK is a dumb name? And if it is, what would an actual good name be?
Why did Toby delete the tweet? I don't really think it was because the game was bad, but if it was then holy crap at least Toby has a brain cell more than the average Twitter user.

why are you here

for asking for your birth name and having a voice actor that people accused of being a sex pervert
the strategic timing of the latter was probably intentionally done to sandbag the game

the guy who made val-halla is an insufferable cunt who will badmouth people he dislikes on his tranny discord server while fellating anyone who agrees with him politically
i.e. an american
I'm not surprised he would support this project considering the director for yIIk is just as insufferable and basically behaves in the same exact way

just wanted to take distance from twitter drama because the game asks for the name your received at birth and not your current name (aka trannies being mad)

Yeah no shit. Videogames are a form of escapism, especially RPGs. Some people like to self-insert, just like some people like to self-insert into the MC of a book or movie. There's nothing wrong with that.

Based and TWEWYpilled.

Huh... The cut ending still seems to leave most of the characters unaccounted for, but it still makes a lot more sense for Alex and Essentia's character arcs then having the entire conflict over Sammy being a lie.

That's really odd that they got far enough with it to have it be fully voiced and mostly animated, just to ditch it for the sake of a twist and an obligatory bad ending.

Way to expose yourself as a fucking retard.

well, dont trans people get "reborn" once they transition?
why not go with that name instead?
also, is it really that terrible to admit you were once the opposite sex? and that effectively, you transitioned with a surgery etc since it was the least damaging alternative to end it? because sure theres always drugs but many of those consist of basically making you stop thinking
honest question, if anyone sees it

also vella deserves to be in another game

It turns out their named it YIIK on purpose hoping people would pronounce it Yeek so they could be pretentious and correct them on purpose.

Like you find Sammy, hug it out, and it just ends. That felt less finished then the ending that was literally cut from the game.

Knowing the two brothers who made this as acquaintances, I will say that the older brother(the one that did the actual work ) is a quiet, and possibly autistic ,guy, but really cool and probably not unlike your typical Yea Forums poster. He's the one who actually knows how to program and just wanted to make a fun game with a retro style. His brother, however, is an insufferable cunt, incredibly pretentious and the main reason I'm sure this thing went down in flames. He can't actually program or model or anything, just compose music, but he's the more domineering of the two despite being younger and I think he just about took over the project. any interview you read its generally just him. Its a shame because the older one is a pretty cool dude who I wish the best for, but I'm glad this wasn't' the big breakout the other one really wanted. Hopefully he'll stick to just music in the future.

Also all of them were homeschooled which could explain why a lot of the interaction feels weird. They're a little off in that way.

vibrating very violently wouldve sounded better

wait did it really come out in 2016

That’s not the whole ending and it’s pretty blatantly unfinished, there is a second part in the files where the alt reality versions of your friends and Alex’s friends say goodbye to each other. But the boss fight doesn’t entirely work correctly.

There is also dialogue for the Crow telling Alex he can take his post modern ending where everyone dies and shove it up his ass.

I think showing the elevator shaking and hearing Alex sigh would be better than having him read it to us.

no it's from early 2019, but recall 2016 is around when people first started talking about it so references may come from back then

It's going to have a physical copy release.

Exactly. This guy completely misunderstands meaningful character development. He uses Dr. House as an example of a jerk who everyone just puts up with but House is dealing with constant pain due to disability plus having to deal with a team of people who often go against what he wants because a lot of what he does tends to be unethical or they think he's just plain crazy.

It's not that I don't believe you but I also don't want to spread hearsay, do you have literally any evidence

Game would have sold ironman numbers if it had furry characters instead

>There is also dialogue for the Crow telling Alex he can take his post modern ending where everyone dies and shove it up his ass.
I can't tell if you're joking, but if true that's a better ending for the crow character as well. He and the people in the mind dungeon don't get much of a payoff either.

Well, the PROBLEM is that he is trying to force a BOOK story into a video game. They are different mediums. You can't write your video game story the same way you'd write your novel. You have to use the medium and what it provides. Acting like the players of your game should just un-self-insert themselves into the game inherently goes against the story-telling opportunities that video games provide.

His whole point is that Dr. House IS likable. Not necessarily to the characters in universe, but to the audience. He's smart and serves as a form of wish fulfillment, "god I wish I could be a dick and nobody could talk shit about me because I'm the best at what I do". It's the same archetype of character that Rick is in Rick and Morty as an autistically smart douchenozzle except that show tries to be self-aware that it's doing that. Yiik guy is saying "I should be able to tell a story about a dick without those audience insert wish fulfillment redeeming factors trying to fix himself without people dropping it as soon as they see the protagonist."

Just because you're controlling the character doesn't mean it's supposed to be you.

Nothing that won't dox me in some way, but I was fairly close to their family for a few years. I was in the same artist circle as their sister and went to some small house parties they used to throw for Christmas and other things. To be honest I think the thing about one being a pretty cool guy and the other(the bearded one being very pretentious and annoying from here ) comes of as pretty clear to anyone who'd just casually look at one of their interviews.

The thing is, he isn't entitled to people just accepting what the story provides. Sure, write a story where the main character is a piece of shit, but you have to establish why I should care. People don't follow stories for the sake of following them to the end. If they don't like it or don't have a reason to get invested, they're gonna drop it.

Anyway, though, the only dialouge I've see from the main character has been him yelling "WHAT, SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHAT'S GOING ON," so I can't say firsthand how he attempts to make the character unlikeable. But my point is that your story is not entitled to readers/players/whatever just accepting the world at face value for the sake of it.

No, thats true. But ignoring the fact that I am controlling the character ignores one of the potential opportunities that telling a story through a video game provides. If you're not going to use that to its advantage, then just write a book or film a movie.

i want to say you're wrong, but i also remember nitw is a thing

Not for nothing, but I don't think a character has to necessarily be relatable or likable depending on what you're doing with them. They just need to be interesting and/or entertaining to watch.

Granted, it's still very possible to make a character too unlikable in that regard, to the point where you don't care what they do or where they end up.

I'm not joking, the game seems to pretty heavily imply there's something else if you go autistically far into the mind dungeon but nobody wants to level stupidly far just to check and save editing to those levels doesn't work because the game somehow tracks which levels you actually did, even in the save file stuff relating to the mind dungeon seems encrypted or something.

That's the exact point of reference I was thinking of

>there is a second part in the files where the alt reality versions of your friends and Alex’s friends say goodbye to each other
They explain what the Hell was up with Michael psychically ascending beyond the need for a shirt?

You're telling me there might be a whole other ending hidden at the max level, but not one person on the planet has bothered to get that far?

everything in this game is specifically made to get on my nerves. literally everything involving the battle system pisses me off, the lolrandumb shit is irritating, the prose gives me a headache, and the references and the way they handle them is very telling of how the writers think. Very much a "oh, yaknow what would work here? A reference! What are some references I can put here... hmm. How about Iwata's TOMBSTONE"

Incorrect: they both sound like garbage, and using "very" is just lazy writing

That's not Rance though

Except the story is garbage, the characters are garbage, the tone and themes are garbage, and the meanings and the philosophies are garbage.

No no, that's literally how he does it. Alex either screams what's going, is a cold heartless asshole to his friends or just complains about stupid shit like how his mom has the nerve to ask him to get a part time job to help her pay the bills after she loses her job.

Plenty of people can understand Roman numerals just fine, but it's unreasonable to expect them to be inserted between two non-numerals.
I fully agree with the theory that they made it obtuse just to act pretentious toward those who don't "get" their layers of sophisticated irony.

I know everybody either hates Earthbound to be a contrarian or sucks the dick of the infamous "I made the Giygas fight because I saw a rape vid" quote from the dev but there's so much good design in it like the entire intro. There's more gravitas in everything that happens from the meteor impact to Buzz Buzz dying than in all of these indie shit games put together and it's just an exposition guide NPC and a generic Starbot.

Earthbound had a lot of so wacky. It also was smart enough to hit you with heaviness like the dramatic boss encounter screen transitions, the various tense boss themes and the times when enemies were more weird and threatening than just evil and antagonistic(Threed, Master Barf, etc.) Stuff like the Sanctuary Guardians little oath they tell you every time ending with "Take it from me, if you dare" and the dramatic horn swirl never seems to be replicated properly with these devs that suck EB's dick.

I'm pretty sure its supposed to imply Alex is not paying attention to their conversation because he's more worried about getting his shit smacked by an entity again and them rambling about all that stuff is confusing his caveman brain.

It probably helps that Itoi did a lot of stuff before working on video games and has experience in writing stories.

Man, when will a game be an homage to MOTHER or MOTHER 3.

And why does literally no game except maybe Undertale and LISA have Itoi's sense of comedic timing. Like everything "Earthbound-inspired" just relies on "lol so wacky" humor.

The point of the scene is that Alex's reality is breaking down, so when he is having a mental breakdown over what he perceives as a threat to his life it opens up his reality to nonsensical emotions and outside threats. The entire point of the scene is to make you ask why the fuck a nonsensical Gold Alpaca showed up at the exact moment things were getting serious, and if you never play the game of course you never get the answer.

>mother had random encounters that got skipped if you were overleveled

There's a great indie game called "Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass" that nails Mother comedy like Undertale and LISA did. I think it's criminally underplayed

This is still my favorite mechanic of any turn-based RPG, and I have no idea why nobody's done it ever since. If I'm going to crush every enemy on my first turn, don't waste my time.

I think the funniest time was when the janni deleted it because they couldn't tell whether it was shilling or anons laughing at it.

There are episodes in Bojack where the characters call each other out for fetishizing their depression and character flaws. Coming to terms with those flaws feeds into their character arcs, and gives us a more well rounded picture of their struggles. Except for Tod. This might seem like a show worshiping sadness, but it's actually just a platform to start a discussion on it, while being lighthearted in its visual presentation of jokes and gags.

However, I do think that what Bojack seemingly does is commodify cynicism, while selling it back as a form of catharsis to its viewership. This might also seem like worship, but what the show is trying to do is exploit something lucrative that already exists in the struggles people face today. It's not trying to put these in a pedestal, they just happen to generate a profit when talked about, and if that's the case, can you fault the show? We currently live in a society that highly values capital, and if exploiting these struggles and emotions generates income, then why would it stop? It also commodifies ideas of happiness and tries to sell them to you, so chances are that love is also there, you just have to look.

What do transgender people and other online communities have to do with worship anyway? We're all subject to the information thrown at us, so how would they have any agency on the mass commodification and worship of sadness? Wouldn't they be victims of it just as much as we are? Pussy pussy love love, hehe.

So, what is the game actually about?

trying to find missing girl and then reality crumbles slowly because of dumb robot ho

some subhuman streamer must've shilled it recently because you niggers keep making threads about it again instead of leaving it in the dumpster where it belongs

also the problem is that not only is he unaware of previous games like Ico or Majora's mask, but he doesn't care about video games or doesn't even make an attempt to understand it and how it works.
I used to be frustrated with these types of people who aren't self-aware, but now I just pity them.

In context he's being sarcastic.
