It's not a harem game. It's a "girl a, girl b, or neither" game. I wish it was a harem game.

objectively speaking it had all the best romance archetypes and it was like a harem anime. dispatch is awesome. more linear than everyone presumed however. also the gameplay is really basic

People shit on Mixtape for being beaten with only ten clicks when I basically did the same for Dispatch. At least my friends liked watching the show with me.

this is a somewhat valid point but I dont mind it too much
you can let dispatch play itself but why would you want to do that? the dispatching minigame is fun.

A romantic dichotomy where you can choose the girl you want is like the ideal. It pleases everyone. And it's honestly baffling more don't follow that model.

Mixtape has zero gameplay. At least Dispatch had invented like 2 dedicated minigames between VN segments. And there's defined "win/lose" conditions even if the story trudges ahead regardless.

Not to defend Shitbatch but it’s whole gimmick was being advertised as an “interactive TV show” whereas Mixtape was advertised as an actual game, but you ended up doing fucking nothing in it.

I enjoyed Dispatch a lot, but playing it for romance just tells me you're a retarded teen, and stating it's does "romance" well? What the fuck you underaged faggot? You literally press a button you can't "fail" or had to build up towards because you were literally forced into "picking" either who were all into you no matter what you have done. That's not romance, that's forced narrative.

>>742527181
I played it like someone running a hero squad and got the bad ending. Its insane how much you have to suck up to Invisigirl for the "true" ending. Completely ruined the experience for me

>The sole westoid game with straight romance options from a male's pov became the biggest gay colony on /vg/. The vast amount of anons who still care about the game are the actual unrepentant homosexuals who either want to fuck brown guys or get fucked by one.

>You literally don't have any choice
This is the exact same zoombie brainset that made it impossible to lose against story bosses in modern gacha and even "serious games".
The zoombie simply cannot comprehend effort towards getting what the subchimps desires, it needs immediate rewards for no effort. And sadly developers decided to cater to them since they "are the future" (until around 2045 when they will trigger global human eradication)
>>
>>742527656
you have a choice tho
in fact, the romance is the only choice you really have lol
>>
>>742527456
The fact that only 4% found out how to avoid a psychopathic broken bitch and a manipulative cunt who'd ditch you any moment means the options were too well hidden. Not good game design, because i didn't want either and my reward would have been "worse ending" all for it, if modern gamers could handle actual bad ends but they can't.

Get the cock out of your mouth. Losing everything isn't an excuse for monotone delivery especially in what are supposed to be moments of triumph or even something mundane like surprise
>>
>>742527796
See >>742527794
You only reach this by being the shittiest dispatcher failing everything, the biggest asshole and the worst scum possible. Not because "Nah i don't feel attracted to either who for some reason want my cock after 3 days of work". Getting this ending is basically the hardcore run mode.
>>
>>742527794
it's not well hidden
the girls are appealing and gamers love to self insert, so most people didnt feel like playing to reject both
visi is easiest to reject since youre pretty much locked out if you dont go to the cinema with her, blazer is more mature and you have like three options on her route to say "let's stay friends"
players simply didnt want to do that

Voice acting is universal. The same metric of critique is valid for audiobooks, movies, western animation, and everything else under the sun. Your sad attempt at ad hominem doesn't make Aaron Paul a better actor. He's shit with little range.

You mean the character trait that completely evaporates by episode 3? Robert's writing is legitimately sloppy
>>
I love narrative driven games, but to be honest, they always attract the cringiest and most autistic people on the planet, who after the game fades from relevance happens to be the only one left. Every general of this kind of game becomes a social discord channel for 3-10 spergy trannies and gay guys all knowing each other by writing or even names and all they do is talk about how gay/trans a character is, wish each other good mornings and image dump the same gay art like they do every thread. Happened to the old telltale general, happened to LiS, happened to Discord and god knows how many others I forgot.
I would expect this from social games like MMOs and Coop games, not this type of game

No, the game's plot revolves around Invisigal's rehabilitation. Even the prototype scenes are rushed compared to anything related to Invisigal. Dispatch is Invisigal's story the moment she gets introduced
>>
>>742529025
I mean, other than totally ignoring every cutscene that revolves around fixing Robert's suit, sure
I guess when you get all your talking points off of video game essays that also didn't play the game you can just make shit up and it'll sound like it makes sense

Which are all rushed. Robert's suit was a device to tell Invisigal's story. You know what? Maybe you're right--in that case the writing in this game is dogshit, you bandwagoning faggot

the mecha man suit was a relevant plot device in episodes 1, 3, 5, 6, and 8. That's literally more than half the game revolving around that plot point alone.
>muh invisigal
no one has ever said that a game's story can't have two cohesive narratives at the same time. Just because you're literally too retarded to focus on more than one thing at a time doesn't mean that means it's a bad story.
>>
there are more people into the homo shit than the actual canon romances, wtf are you talking about
>>
>>742530195
5 minutes of screentime over an hour of story; with the exception of episode 6 (set up, once again, for a segue into more Invisigal wank) and 8 where Mecha Man is deus ex machina doesn't mean the entire story was an invisigal jackfest. There are several plot points running concurrently that are less important than Invisigal, and Mecha WastedPotential is one of them.

Visi gets some really good early scenes like the movie theater and the fact she's obviously into Rob.
