Release game famed for its multiplayer and competitive scene

In another Timeline we got Tetris Effect Multiplayer while Tetris 99 and Puyo Pop Tetris faded to obscurity as oddities rather than the current defaults. But not this timeline.

not every game needs multiplayer, you sperg

Tetris has been a recognised competitive game with worldwide championships since 1990 zoomer trash.

That has nothing to do with everything you stupid fucking retard.

Not bad for Tetris desu

don't worry, Tim Sweeney's bribe paid for it to be successful. Who the FUCK buys all these Tetris games, anyway?

not every game needs multiplayer, you sperg

Whats wrong with PPT?
Feels like a perfectly good competitive tetris version.

>he didn't play original tetris
that said i don't see why there's no silly splitscreen multiplayer. fuck competitive shit.

the only reason I'd buy a PSVR is for Tetris Effect
is that a weird thing to say

So? That doesn't mean every Tetris game needs to be multiplayer. Multiplayer Tetris is just one facet of the game.
Fuck off you retard.

The VR for tis is really cool (VIive)

Jesus Christ, the underage cancer around this time is unbearable

OP, try making this thread again in a few hours

VR is a meme gimmick fad that is already over.

tengen tetris had it but nintendos version didnt for whatever fucking reason

The problem is that its the only official Tetris game with 2 player battle still alive, but you have to cut through some Puyo here and there.

It was overpriced as fuck.

the original didn't obviously. just saying that could've just added it there in tetris effect with little to no effort for fun. but it was vr thing so probably focused on that.

Only on 2019 Yea Forums would you get people complaining about a fucking Mizuguchi Tetris game. Fuck this board.

Guideline Tetris' true strengths are Sprint and multi-player battle. They are the only things it has over playing NES and Grandmaster Tetris.
I like TE a lot, it's a great beginner Tetris game, but it does lack one of the two modes it really does need.

>Tetris 99 is killing months later and lobbies fill instantly
>PPT exists for competitive 1v1 modern but have to occasionally delete puyo
>Have Tetris Effect for a chill single player experience curated by based Mizuguchi, includes leaderboards anyway
>The CTWC is thriving off of a 30 year old version of the game
Any Tetris fan complaining in current year needs to be put out of their misery because they'll clearly never be happy anyway.
rip friends tho

seriously though, how hard would it be to put in multiplayer? Lots of tetris games with much less effort put into them have had it, so what was stopping them?

One thing I dislike about 99 is that it becomes way too easy to win in regular lobbies and while Invinctus lobbies are much better at sending strong opponents, you'll sometimes get half the game with AI bots.
It wouldn't have been hard at all.

I concur that they could stand to better incentivize playing Invictus more, but I couldn't possibly disagree harder about Tetris Effect competitive multiplayer. The working title was Zen Tetris, I say keep it that way. Save competitive for a Tetris Effect 2 with skins and music that reflect the tension of competition and include a competitive/co-op campaign where the transcendental final level has you clearing each other's garbage instead

Concession accepted!

Biggest problem is they charged $40 for fucking Tetris.

theres no reason for guideline/SRS tetris to not have multiplayer, since thats really the only thing its good for. if you wanted a single player tetris you'd be playing TGM3 or some other ARS-like tetris game

>rip friends
to be fair friends sucked dick and jstris is a million times better

ackshully it was $36 for preorder. and it had a demo.

oh... shit... damn... i better do as user says

>Announce a PC version
>Epic exclusive
>Completely forgotten
They deserve it.

NES has maxout and the CTWC.
TGM has the GM ranks.
SRS has multiplayer and sprint.
The side modes each of these rotation rules has are great, but removing one of their main components is like removing a vital organ.
Not to say that I hate Tetris Effect. It was my first Tetris game, but if you are going to get into Guideline Tetris pretty hard you really are better off trying out Cultris, Jstris, or PPT.

Your opinions aren't facts user

i know my opinions arent facts, thats why i posted facts and not opinions

Dude I gotta agree with the dude.
Guideline Tetris is very easy to learn unless you get into competitive.

not every game needs new content released after it comes out fag

This

Isn't Cultris even more broken than guideline? Not a bad thing, but you can do some fucking dumb twists

I would've bought it if it wasn't on EGS.

And Tetris Effect has an attempt at a "story" in Journey Mode, one of gaming's most beautiful moments for my money in Metamorphosis, and I doubt we've seen the last of the Zone meter. The game feels like an interesting sidegrade to your usual Tetris games rather than the next iteration, and I think that's okay.
Sometimes I feel like Mizuguchi missed the mark with Tetris Effect simply because people who came for the Tetris don't care about synesthesic experiences, and his fans that came for the synesthesia don't care to pay up for Tetris. Fortunately I came for both, so the game feels made for me. Here's hoping everyone's happy with Tetris Effect 2 when it definitely gets made and comes out to universal praise. Definitely. ;_;

Why would you miss tf?
jstris is infinitely superior in every aspect

I'd buy it full price if it had multiplayer

That's abysmal for Tetris.

Nostalgia, mostly
helps that shit opinions keep the thread alive

>Le Ebin Game Store exclusive
No thanks, Tim.

I see it in stores for $20 now, will probably pick it up during the holidays. It should have launched at that price, though.
