Why is it so popular?

it's fun
and there are lots of unlockables

fun

Better than every AAA game released in the last couple of years and it's $3

It's mostly worst Koreans that plays it and it was shilled like crazy by big streamers.

It's cheap and fun
/thread

It's very cheap and you can get a couple hours of fun out of it

okay buy WHY is it fun?

because i can play it with one hand and fap to overwatch porn with the other

Combines some popular gameplay mechanics by blending the RNG of random upgrades and a choice system that lets the player pick the build out of the RNG choices presented. Outside of that it's just some flimsy game that could have been on Newgrounds in 2005.

It's "fun" because it just pulls a couple psychological levers that players like (progression/choice/randomness)

so it's artificial nu-fun.

Can make more than one number go up
Illusion of build variety
Nothing is wasted if the rng doesn't go your way, just reset
Some environment variety so runs aren't completely samey
RNG drops means can be looking for that perfect sequence

Exactly. And that's why people play it a few times and then in six months no one will remember that it ever existed.

>meta progression
into the trash it goes

Cheap and fun mobile game you can play while you do something else.

it's an easy game that rewards you often and it costs $2 and is very lightweight

passive dopamine farmer

>in six months no one will remember that it ever existed
And that's a good thing

Beyond unlocking more characters and weapons/items you can skip buying or even refund the meta powerups and disable meta mechanics like the Arcanas.
You can even buy a stacking difficulty upgrade that makes the game harder for no benefit.

>Cheap
>Relatively challenging requiring you to both unlock stuff incrementally and also figure out the best combos of powers and items in order to get through the game
>Doesn't take a lot of entry skill, the basic gameplay is extremely simple allowing you to focus on learning the intricacies and not developing twitch skill
>Lots of stuff to unlock
>Frantic high-end gameplay that is easy to watch
>The intrigue of RNG rolls and potentially getting big fanfare for upgrade chests

It's got a lot of factors that make it fun to play and fun to watch. It's simple and unpretentious and doesn't sell itself as anything other than a cheap, fun little distraction game. Plus it's only like $2.

What's not to like? This is literally the best type of indie game.

For me it was the complete lack of faggoty politics injected into the game for no reason. Quite refreshing to find a game that is actual gameplay and not bent on pushing niggers, fags, and troons.

I don't understand, is this just a meme you're both taking part in, or do actual human beings on the internet hold the view that like, if a game isn't HIGH QUALITY AAA AWESOME MARKETING EPIC, then it is entirely disposable and deserves to be burned to the ground because it takes attention away from Fortnite or something?

In addition to being good and fun, the devs are based. There's always a new update.

Most devs would take the FOMO money and run.

I used to mostly play mortaccio
But now I just play not bayo

It was getting popular way before Asmongold started playing it.

You're putting words in my mouth. I never claimed every game had to be some massive AAA title. Do you remember in exquisite detail every flash game you ever played? No one does.

Vampire survivor is a fun little distraction that you can waste a few hours on and get your two bucks worth. Stop sperging out.

Stupid fun where I can turn my brain off and and listen/watch something on the other screen.

and most AAA titles are forgotten in less

>You're putting words in my mouth
I'm not, I'm literally stating your exact views. You literally said "It is like a flash game therefore it is shit and the industry will be better when it is forgotten". That's what you specifically said. The only possible reading of that is that you're angry it has taken your favorite streamers away from playing Fortnite for you.

Seek professional mental help

>t's "fun" because it just pulls a couple psychological levers that players like (progression/choice/randomness)
Exactly this. The dev that made the game used to code for modern gambling machines. He knows how to make things addictive.

That explains why he likes Castlevania so much

You're just too dense to understand propaganda and social engineering. I suggest you read some books on the subjects of mass conditioning.

I wasn't the guy that said it was better forgotten I'm the guy that said it will be forgotten. Calm down.

can't wait to see his new pachinko game

It's all written down all you have to do is read.

Pachinko update when

because the indie game tranny cult that decides what to shill decided to shill it

Please recommend books. I will keep recommending you take the meds the doctors prescribed you.

It's fun and addicting, if you can't afford to sacrifice a bag of chips to buy it to try yourself then at least pirate it.

The field of psychology has been used in marketing, propaganda, and social engineering for like 200 years and there's a plethora of papers talking about what works and what doesn't when you are controlling large populations of people. These papers are all out there for you to read. You can even read the memoirs of propagandists for like 100 years on how they get populations to perform the desired results.

You're just a complete philistine that would only read them if you were forced to. And being someone that has only ever read half of a harry potter children's book in your entire life all these concepts are completely alien to you.

i'm in the indie game tranny cult and i got you to make that post

Too bad the weapon is a pain in the ass

the game is just honest fun with no catches

The guy that lives in filth and gives Activision money knowing hes contributing to child trafficking? The guy that plays Blizzard games and advertises it yet he full well knows Bobby Kotick is in Jeffreys black book? That Asmongold? Didn't he contribute to his mothers death too?

Which one is that?

I didn't even know it had an evolution

Oh yeah I still need to get to that coffin

It's only 3$ with no additional costs. It sits at just the perfect price for what it is and gives you dopamine hits for a good couple of runs.
Honestly I cant even really find any faults with it.

It's literally less than a dollar so there's practically no investment.

Why all the seethe user?
