I remember reading in one of the anthologies that Larson basically regretted he wasn't able to get that across properly in this one.

Love Larson's work. This one makes no sense but most cartoons are really charming
Michael Wilson
There is a joke but the execution was bad, it's not just randumb.

The joke is literally just "Cows have no hands so tools made by cows would be shitty and bad"
That´s it.

From the PreHistory of the Far Side (p. 156):
>The "cow tools" were supposed to be just meaningless artifacts---only the cow or a cowthropologist is supposed to know what they're used for. The first mistake I made was in thinking this was funny. The second was making one of the tools resemble a crude handsaw--which made already confused people decide that their only hope in understanding the cartoon meant deciphering what the other tools were as well. Of course, they didn't have a chance in hell.

If you mean literally reads ingame text, than yes.

it would have to be the kind of game that has a lot of depth and value inferred to it by the fans when in reality its just a half baked idea executed poorly
i dont play a lot of games though so i wouldnt know

Why is he embarrassed if all his comics are just as obtuse and unfunny?

The "joke" is this is what tools made by cows would look like.

I fail to see how that applies to Deus Ex, or the comparison in general. The game has a crystal clear plot.

Last night I dreamt that the Far Side came back, and that Larson's new obsession was alligators & the bayou. Seems extremely plausible

I can tell you that Evangelion is the cow tools of anime
Shit someone made that has aspects that weren't supposed to be taken seriously at all or have deeper meaning but people do anyways like a lot of the Christian imagery in Eva
