i find it weird when people champion undertale/deltarune as the ultimate examples of sincerity in gaming, knowing the origins of toby's sense of humor
specially when sites like tumblr always had irony posion and even people being cynical towards anime
something tells me there could be a chance of deltarune having a cameo of dril or mega64
the real "tumblrisms" of ut/dr aren't the furry characters or the lgbt elements, more likely they're the type of humor when you consider the roots
(i'd also bring up the differences between "tumblr cringe" and "deviantart cringe" where tumblr always had overt self-awareness, self-deprecating humor and even some cultural overlaps with somethingawful while deviantart feels alien in comparison because it's weird kids not even thinking about how the outside world sees them)
(could also be because tumblr is full of millenials who also invest in politics to feel more mature than they are)

it feels like people nowadays (and maybe as a side effect of "internet brain rot" or troll's remorse) define sincerity as "anti-cringe culture", as if simply including colorfull furry characters makes your work sincere
so by this logic: david lynch's art for example can't be sincere because it doesn't have colorfull furries or poorly drawn anime characters

but i also believe toby himself might be aware of this, which explains why he'd ever want to go to japan because barely does irony exist in anything from japan
maybe he even sees pieces of irony and the likes on his western fans
but he probably doesn't entirely regret his history with tumblr if it got him into things he did like

>I'm not from the modern internet, and I'm from 4chan of yore
Your take on this is questionable for the same reason Toby's is. 4chan,/a/ and /v/ specifically, are very much known for being the hipster boards especially early on. You can't really accuse others of being hipsters while citing your time on the board that popularized the term "normie" as why you don't count as one yourself. You should be aware of how often we would celebrate obscure games for the sake of their obscurity and would lambast (and still do) anything that's mainstream. Undertale initially grew it's first following from 4chan because of it's subversiveness appealing to our userbase.

I fuckin brought up a bunch if 90s cartoons but didn't read your insane fucking psychoanalysis. I don't give a shit what people think about me liking shit graphics or whatever. Its not a social thing for most people from the 90s. It's just fun. And I just remembered I loved Squidbillies and Space Ghost Coast to Coast.

It really is only a problem in a few areas in both MM7 and MM8 and it's not something to stress over when creating a party

Welcome back to our ongoing screenshop LP of "4.6 Billion Year Story: The Theory of Evolution".

Previous thread: >>729552896

>What is this game?
The original JRPG predecessor of E.V.O. Search For Eden for the SNES, released on the PC-98, developed by Almanic and published by the JRPG gods themselves Enix. The game follows the perspective of a mortal creature chosen by Gaia, (You), to shepherd Earth through the entirety of its evolutionary history over the course of billions of years. You must save innocent wildlife from danger and clear obstacles to the world's continued evolution, while at the same time thwarting the machinations of a sadistic alien ojou-sama from outer space.

>What's the gameplay?
Battle other creatures, spam the Fight command in repetitive JRPG encounters, gain EVO (exp), and transform yourself into new species, doing your best to climb to the end of the evolutionary chain and avoiding the trap of genetic dead ends.

>can I play it too?
Just look up the ROM on MyAbandonware, then download the patch (along with the translated manual full of lore) here: https://46okumen.com/projects/e-v-o-the-theory-of-evolution/

>where is tonight's thread starting?
As you may remember, our last session stopped right after we witnessed the extinction of the dinosaurs. After taking shelter in Gaia's cave (no mammals allowed), we emerged from hibernation to find the planet frozen after the asteroid's impact debris blocked out the sun.
