Give me a bigger success story, I fucking dare you

Imagine being on top of the world then falling into obscurity so hard.

seething

That's it. I'm making a fucking videogame.
I'm gonna post in the gamedev threads I DON'T CARE
I'M PLAYING VIDYA WITH SAKURAI

>man makes a great game
>gets rewarded for it
Based

If I could make a game even half as good as undertale was I'd be swimming in it. I can't even read a music page though.

Literally ONE JOB.

bigger than the moon landing

>homosuck is already forgotten
>hussie languishes away doing fucking nothing
>undertale literally only continues to become more popular
>toby meets and impresses powerful people and only continues to become more successful

What a bizarre fucking timeline

notch

rips off a game and sells it for billions (literally)

this faggot ripped off earthbound and made a fraction of that

Notch has the messed up brain though

as if the market was interested in another nigger killer simulator

for all of its pride, Yea Forums is full of generic uncreative ideas

is notch a furfaggot? nope.

How the fuck is Toby so ridiculously based?

Better than being a depressed nutjob with no money.

Put Toby Fox in everything. Put him in the new Elder Scrolls game, I don't care.

Put him in Luigi's Mansion 3, I don't care

Put him in Banjo-Toby, I DON'T CARE

PUT HIM IN AS A DOG IN HALO 6, I DO NOT FUCKING GIVE A SINGLE SHIT

...Hussie? Andrew Hussie? Is that you?

Andrew? Andrew Hussie? Is that you?

Andrew, I can't and won't make this any simpler for you.

You failed at life. You failed. When one thinks of what man is capable of, pushing himself to the limits physically, mentally and emotionally to achieve heights of success never before mentioned, your name will not be whispered in the same, reverent fashion that others have.

Nobody will remember Andrew Hussie. You aren't even a header or a footer in the career of someone else. You are nobody. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

In short, you are an enormous failure.

Andrew, being that you're about 35 years old and your brain has probably hard-wired itself to accept such failures by now and write off such criticism by being "flippant", really suggests that you've passed beyond the proverbial breaking-point. There's no turning back. This is your career, this is what defines you and this is what you'll defend to the end.

The abhorrent failure that is MS Paint Comics, Andrew Hussie, that is your legacy.

Maybe I'm over-reaching, however. Who knows? People CAN change. Maybe you'll read this, Andrew, and think long and hard about what a wasteful life you've led. Maybe you'll think, "wow. It's incredible just how abysmal and pathetic I really AM!" Maybe you'll lift some weights in the morning. Maybe you'll take a self-help class.

Maybe in a couple of years, Andrew, you'll have learned from this failure. I doubt it, though.

I genuinely doubt it.

Now excuse me, I have to work on DELTARUNE, compose for Game Freak's Little Town Hero, and Sans just got confirmed for Smash Ultimate. My accountant estimates over sixty million dollars in sales, and my place in video game history will forever be cemented.

>billionaire
It is technically a bigger success story

Fuck that faggot. I'm honestly fucking angry that Sans is in, I can't lie. Undertale is unironically the most overrated video game ever made by a wide margin. There are people that SINCERELY BELIEVE That it is a masterwork of art when it is homestuck tier shit that a 15 year old with a budget could have came up with

He got screwed over by being soviet, state took all his money

>everyone loves it

except people that like good rpgs with good writing, like earthbound/mother 3?

I'd rather be seething than be a grown ass man who thinks undertale is a good video game

Someone tell me the Andrew Hussie
story

so far. After minecraft literally nobody gives a fuck about notch or wants to be around him. Toby's fame is only rising and he gets to hang around the people he looked up to as a child and have them tell him how cool his ideas are.

If toby can milk his fame right he might end up being a billionaire too someday.

Donald Trump

like the pasta or full story? the pasta was posted

I'm honestly just waiting for Nintendo or epic or somebody to snap up delta rune. I'd imagine it would do insane numbers on the eshop.

No joke there's going to be a movie made about Toby at some point.

Notch

no its fine. i actually WANT to sink with the ship. squeak squeak.

Notch
Zun
4 Leaf Studios

you have no idea how much money notch made off minecraft. which is a FAR bigger deal than a shitty indie title.

he literally inspired a generation of kids with it.

Toby will be president soon, just wait.

better late than never as they say

deltarune demo is already on the eshop

I still hope to achieve some level of success some day, but I couldn't even dream of achieving Toby Fox's accomplishments. He's just on another level.

I'm sure Epic will blast him with emails about it. I doubt he'd take the offer though, he's already got more money than he knows what to do with.

Notch sure is richer but nobody wants to invite him. Toby just harvest dev pussy left and right in japan

the difference is nobody talks about notch because hes a miserable bastard who doesnt see his own mistakes lmao

Was this a romantic encounter? What the fuck

As long as he doesnt fuck up Deltarune he will be remembered as one of the 2010s best devs.

i honestly like undertale but i hate sans so much that i think I'll pretend to be a woman and accuse him of rape just to ruin his career. fuck sans.

>your new game is overshadowed by your basement dweller's character getting in smash

My dream project was simple. A game where you play as a pigeon and try to generate as much rage as possible by shitting on people and their cars.

At best this would be a meme game popular for maybe a week.

A game where you're a Kea and destroy everything would be fun too.

I enjoy birds. BTW keep an eye out for Skatebird friends.

I really think Notch has peaked.
Whereas Toby will continue to make games that have a strong cult following.

Which would you rather

>Be a billionaire, but everybody hates you. Your wife, your daughter, your coworkers. It becomes public knowledge how much of a shitty neet you are.

>Be a milliare but everybody thinks your game is cool as hell. Get all the japanese pussy you want. Gets interviewed by Famitsu and beat the shit out of sakurai in smash so hard he puts your character in smash. Be such a chad that you walk into gamefreak and start pimp slapping people until they make you the head composer on their most promising new game.

I know this is pasta but
>tfw im 32
>tfw still working on original idea
>tfw toby 10 years younger made a game in less than 3 years from nothing thats this huge
feels old man.

Prehaps the five nights at freddys guy Scott since he has a larger margin of physical media, ie fnaf toys and posters, being sold in all chain superstores in america and an alleged movie deal in the works. In terms of upward high level connections, i dont think anyone can top toby fox though.

he'll just come out as gay

>cant see his own mistakes
Yeah, because hes a billionaire. Do you realize how much money that is? Look, I havent played a minute of zoomercraft ever but no denying the game fucking made it much more than toby. There are a lot of indie devs that find great work with higher salary but nothing beats being a billionaire. You're just a faggot fanboy.

Peaking at billionaire is pretty good, homie.

I would be more than happy to be a millionaire, being a billionaire is honestly excessive.

For someone that made such a controversial game, why doesn't Toby Fox himself get as much hate compared to other indie devs?

Attached: 1566000815897.jpg (400x386, 74K)

to anyone feeling bad about tobys success: doing what toby did is literally even more rare than winning a megamillion lottery. the combination of drive and brainpower he has is just an unbelieveable combination.

the fact he is lucky to have a brain that works a certain way doesnt stop anyone from doing their best and working hard. reminder that toby literally worked in a basement while his mom nagged at him to get a real job, aka his family looked down on him. there was no certainty to the success of undertale, but he still went for it.

Akira Toriyama

>durr zoom
Also its a 10 year old game

I would kill to be Toby Fox

Yeah but he still has decades of his life left (assuming nothing happens).
The fact that he spends a good chunk of his day shitposting on Twitter tells me that he doesn't have much going on.
And yes I understand I'm on Yea Forums right now.

He created the best selling game of all-time. He didn't peak, he hit the ceiling.

he's carefully cultivated an image for himself
he's smart enough to avoid brainfarting onto twitter like everyone else

millionaire because Toby is very clearly loving his life and having a blast and Notch is very clearly miserable even with all of his money

Okay but now what?
I'm not gonna pretend to know exactly what's inside Notch's head but I think even he can't ride that high forever.

yes, two billion is more than what toby has made. i am also a fan of undertale. i dont mind being called a moron on Yea Forums because of it, because it has been shown many times, even today, that this dunno shit about good videogames

>FUCKLOAD of money but sad
>A ton of money but happy
yeah, no doubt about it. Toby any day of the week

millionaire because all the other shit with it will likely push you up to billionaire anyway but without being miserable

what a fucking legend. no one will ever top him

Honestly man, the most important one is:
>Markus Persson: age 40 years
>Toby Fox: age 27 years
Only thing you can't buy.

Notch will probably always have more money than toby, but I wouldn't be surprised if toby eventually had a bigger impact on the industry.

Also even though Notch is a billionaire he's still an fat antisocial autist. Nobody wants to be around him and his personality doesn't allow him to do cool billionaire shit like go to hooker island or hang out with the elite at debauched parties.

If Evening Star makes a successful game, Christian Whitehead.

i dont think he ever rode on a high. his sad ass crashed through that wave then sunk to the bottom of lamentful billionaire ocean where he eats stale candy from his candy room and cries at parties where snoop dogg is

ulilililia

Doesn't get involved in drama and keeps his opinions to himself on social media

>implying that Toby isn't also a massive autist

He's the kind that can apparently make friends though

literally who?

he's one that people want to actually be around and has the ability to smash puss Japanese or otherwise.

A guy dedicated 5 years of his life on making a game akin to Limbo/Inside, I think it is called Orphan, that was burried in less than 12 hours on Steam, he even complained on Twitter. Toby though, just got extremely lucky, in the right place and right time, mostly in the right time.

FUCK YOU IM WORKING ON IT
also i need a composer

I find Toby's story inspiring, not depressing. He was just some nobody basement-dwelling autist who pursued his dreams, and through hard work and passion, achieved them. It shows that anybody could make it. If Toby's success is depressing to you, you're looking at it wrong.

I wish I could have been born with a nack for learning how to draw or how to play instrument.

All I'm good for is playing games.

The full experience

>Nobody will remember Andrew Hussie. You aren't even a header or a footer in the career of someone else. You are nobody. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
this but unrionically. Who the hell is andrew hussie?

how old is he? like 25?
that too, he probably has been doing this for a while now, long before undertale

how long was that dev time anyway? he did it all on his own?

As others have said, Toby benefited from the pre-existing Homestuck fanbase.

Obviously the game blew up well beyond that, but it's easier to build up from something than nothing.

He's learned how to use his autism to become even more Chadlike than a regular Chad

>Okay but now what?
He hit the fucking ceiling. What don't you understand?

27
4 years for undertale

just make a twitter account and advertise

4 years for UT
4 years for what amounts to a flash or RPG maker level of detail and shit.

if thats all on his own, i'd think that there was a ton of scrapping.

Are you the dev of Goose Game?

That's just the way it works user.. Like, I don't think five nights at freddies would be a thing if it came out before the screaming youtube autist went into style.

But Sans isn't even the main character of Undertale. He doesn't do jack shit in the game aside from a secret final boss in a route that's very hard to access.

This is so fundamentally retarded. I won't accept it. This didn't just happen.

He still has to wake up in the morning.
His life didn't end after Minecraft, he still has to keep doing things because he's a human being.

his game is trash, only the music is good

zoe quinn

He has decades to live a comfy billionaire's life, what are you even trying to say? Do you think hell blow through a billion dollars before he dies ? Lmao

All you have to do is give away free keys to twitch streamers, if you game is good itll sell.

The big streamers arent going to play someone's random shit game unless paid. Might convince some 50 viewer Andy thi

Wealth is obviously a facet of modern life but there's more to life than how much money you have.
Are you one of those "temporarily embarrassed millionaires" who thinks that once they "make it" they'll reach an infinite state of euphoria?

million obviously

Toby created an actual game with story, and an end.
Notch created a fucking art program. Just cause he's richer doesn't mean he's more successful.

besides his assloads of money just the fact that just like toby he made a little indie game that but became so popular everyone knows it,sold it for 2 billion and is also the best selling game ever beating fucking tetris.

And everyday he wakes up rich.
I don't know what point you're driving at. Notch has enough dosh to take up any interest he wants. Whether he chooses or chooses not to is irrelevant.

>he thinks undertale is that good
>he thinks reading music sheets equal to good game play

This is why Toby because a success. Because genuinely low IQ uncultured swine tumblrites/redditors pushed the "game" on everybody because it was so "deep".

>Just cause he's richer doesn't mean he's more successful
No, it doesn't. But your game beating fucking Tetris does.

kek, don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but it's still funny as fuck

He can neet it up,if still wants to create games he can, he can do anything.

You sound like a coping wageslave.

>It shows that anybody could make it
Well, not really that anyone can make it, but that huge potential can be found smelling bad in mom's basement.

Toby announced his game 5 years prior AND had a fully fleshed out demo hooking people on back then. The homestuck crowd helped, but people really overestimate how known he was back then. He was just some music guy and I wasn't even aware of the tracks he composed until a friend pointed out.

who is andrew hussie?

Notch?

>Give me a bigger success story
I think saving one of the biggest game companies from hitting another instance of financial bankruptcy due to releasing one of the worst games of all time counts.

There is nothing inherently bad about the game itself.

Thats all streamers like Forsen and Lirik and Sodapoppin do all day. Variety streamers play shitty games in between the big releases.
Playing and reacting to "lidl" games is a big part of variety streaming, and a lot of times small games turn out to be pretty good.

I say Sodapoppin take a free key from a guy who popped into his stream like 2 weeks ago.

Did Toby Fox actually say nigger? Or is that just a rumor?

This was back in the day when the height of his popularity was "some autists on the MSPA forums knew him as the that one guy on the music team who made a rock opera about mpreg when the mods started clamping down on underage pregnancy talk". The number of people who gave a shit about Toby "Radiation" Fox in any way was MAYBE a few hundred.

Vinny played an user from /agdg/s game a couple months ago, he plays small games all the time.

It's not '''deep''' at all you nigger it's just funny with a nice story
