Are we in the friendslop era?

Boomer here. I have literally never heard of this. I only play big AAA single player games. This year all I've played so far is Resident Evil 9 and Pragmata.

If you have friends and a job, you are always in the friendslop era.

What if I have a job but no friends?

i can't wait for Sony to spend $500m on a live service friendslop, take 7 years to release the game long after the trend is over and people have moved on, and then have the entirety of the games journalist media blame chuds, racists, and 4chan for its failure

How is this friendslop? It's literally competitive multiplayer.

Literally the only reason it sold that much is because a jap made it

all the other friendslop was made by westerners and japs will always buy jap shit even if it's just ripping the west.

Basically friendslop: Japan

I would have played that in 2008 but I'm too old for these fads now.

Streamerslop.
Some E-Celeb signal boosted this crap and the rest of the Steam sheep have fallen in line.

Schedule 1 was made by an Aussie and that also sold like 5 million copies n a week.

Not sure on that one. It definitely pushes graphics a bit harder than these sort of games normally do.
>>
>>741505145
Everyone here is retarded
its cheap, that's why people bought it.

The greediness of shit devs to even charge more than $10 for their shit game is astonishing.

it's prophunt but with MSpaint
western devs be like that's not progressive enough

>>741505145
Hide-and-seek is an ancient, primal and timeless game type. Whether it's Prop Hunt, Spies vs Mercs, or Alien vs Predator 2, it's just endless thrill of the chase and being chased.

HD2 and Arc arent' friendslop, friendslop has to be cheap
>REPO
>Schedule 1
>RV
>Content Warning
>Chained Together

I would say its a resurgence, because I'd throw Mount your Friend, Speedrunners, and Tricky Towers into friendslop as well but modern ones all have the same framework/movement. Mecca atleast has a unique take on prop hunt, compared to say Content Warning and REPO 1:1 Lethal Company clones

It will be forgotten in a month like all the others.

I have not played a single friendslop game
am I missing out on anything?
>>
>>741507002
>HD2
>Arc
Naw, they're not like peak or anything like that those are basically AA games with a team MP focus

A friend slop game is basically like a super low budget take on certain concepts and they're usually dirt cheap. Peak is like 8 bucks
>>
>>741507343
lolno
it's all trash all the way down, glorified roblox games with a price tag if anything
>>
>>741507343
There is a reason most of them are flash in a pan hot for a month and then its genuinely only playable with real friends every once in awhile
>>
>>741507343
You can actually experience more than average person playing these games by watching other people play them on youtube.
For this game it's either something clever and all skill like turning into flag or a stool, or something funny like becoming a horse's penis.
I can assure you that non of your friends are smart or funny enough to do anything like this.
>>
>>741507864
it's like that "the paper" episode of spongebob.
you're not going to turn it into a helicopter just by willpower alone
>>
>>741505145
Friendslop sounds a little silly to me. I think disposable game would describe it better. Let me elaborate, it's cheap for the dev and consumer, requires multiplayer (more consumers), safe, generic and skill-less. If it dies on the next month, no problem, nobody will miss it, not even the dev. What do you think?

Everyone pronounces the name wrong it's so annoying.
