Is it any good or does it insist upon itself? Worth $8?
>>722499639It's soulful, and that's what matters.
>>722499936Fair enough
>>722499639It's great, one of the few genuinely good games to come out in the last few years. Definitely worth 8 bucks
>>722499639edgy visual diarrhea
Hot garbage
pretty shit, if it didn't have the ridiculous visuals no one would have played it
>>722499639Insists upon itself, forced edgy, explicitly anti-White; devs regularly call for and celebrate your death.
>>722499639It's pretty good. The level design let's you fuck around with different loadouts and you can break the game pretty easily if you feel like it.
>>722499639It’s pure kino
>>722502208>explicitly anti-JewFTFY
>>722499639I got it for free and would still say $8 will get your money's worth.
>>722499639I found it extremely boring and unfun>ugly for the sake of ugly [this cant be understated enough>gameplay doesn't really stand on it's ownIt's hipster trash.
Fantastic game, strong recommendation
>>722499639it's alright but you need to "get" how to play it for it ot be any fun. Just playing like a regular FPS will work but will be pretty boring
>>722501897>steam charts for a single player gameretard
>>722503498>>steam charts*ftfy
>>722503498Isn't it 4 years old too? That it's brought up at all after that amount of time counters any steam chart nonsense.
The style is interesting but playing a finnish game a lot of stuff is gonna be aggressive
>>722503590if steam charts posters had common sense they wouldn't post them
>>722503415>gameplay doesn't really stand on it's ownname 1 game that plays like it
>>722499639it plays like rainbow six, then turns into a bizarre combination of rainbow six and quake with hallucinogenic levels.
>>722503760That doesn't make it good. >ugly>mediocre gameplay at bestIt's for pseuds who thinks a basic crypto-occult dystopia setting is special and cool and not just real life.
>>722504004>>mediocre gameplay at bestnah, there's lots of things you can do in it than you can't in other games if you're creative enough. you just got filtered cuz ur a graphics whore
>>722504089Are the things fun? [No]
it has a level based on osama bin laden's compound, that's all you need to know
>>722504123Literally subjective, so you saying no doesn't mean no for anyone else
>>722504164Holy poggerino! A bin laden compound?! wowzers that's so unique! I hope it's neon green and covered in skittles vomit!
>>722501897>Still assmad the dev made a level where you kill Charlie Kirk>>>/pol/ is that way christard.
>>722504305Show proof of this and I will return the game right now.
>>722504249You forgot to attach the gigachad image
>>722504391I thought that was on the sequel
>>722504305Based if true
>>722499639>does it insist upon itselfDo you niggers even know what you're talking about?
>>722499639>left-wing game>disgusting looking with atrocious gameplayWhy does this keep happening?
>>722499639it's fine but seeing how you got it 4 years late all of the most insufferable fans have percolated down and cover any form of discussion about it like whale-fall at the bottom of the ocean.so keep away from most or all of the fanbasehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6yVVmnrS_8
>>722504305Whoa, that dev sounds like a real pain in the neck!

Its fun but youll suck your first dick off to completion a month after buying this
>>722504391the dev didn't make the level it's a custom level made by some modder, there's also a luigi magione one.
>>722504607I tried to like the game anon it's just purposefully distasteful and the gameplay is NOWHERE near good enough to carry that slack.
If you can get past how abrasive the visuals are then it's a really solid, fast paced, movement based shooter.
>>722504123The game IS fun thoughbeit
I like the grappling hook. You can shoot a dart out the gun and grapple to it and fly like Jesus
>>722504638What does this even mean
game hits hard if you grew up playing weird 90's doom wads
>>722504701Nope. >gunplay mid>enemy ai mid>level design decentIt would be a 6-7/10 but then the ugliness drags it down to 5/10 at most.
>>722499936>>722501745This. I pirated and beat it a while back but just bought it because its a good inspired game unlike all the new slop.
>>722504391Either he's outright lying or he's thinking of the custom level where you re-enact that healthcare executive's murder.
>>722504305>>the dev made a level where you kill Charlie KirkThat was a fan map, he just tweeted about it
I'm still waiting on the next Psycho Patrol R update.
>>722499639its not for sane people but it is really good
>>722504249its absolutely is, and it host mebers of PMC that you might have invested in so you see your stocks fall after the mission.
>>722506559Wow my stocks fell? That makes yhe.mid gunplay and eyerape visuals ok!
>>722499639It's a fun tactical shooter but the presentation feels like an elaborate shitpost and can become grating even if you can withstand it long enough to familiarize yourself with it. I'll still take it over Horror-Themed Retroshooter #545 (my biggest issue with Cultic, despite Cultic being very fun to play).
>>722505110>>722506730>mid mid mid mid mid midThanks for letting everyone know your opinion wasn't worth anything to begin with

You care not about argument over the merit of this game, you only care about drawing everyone's attention. Any smart Anon past this post will ignore you.
>>722499639>$8Too expensive for a game made by a libtard.
>>722507430>pseudo-intellectual drivel as an attempt to draw attention away from the very clear gameplay shortcomings I'm highlightingClassic Cruelty Squad pseud. Especially the ESL energy.
>>722505027THE GUN IS GOOD
>>722507098no its european thing, try bryssel or something, you get free money and you have time to play videogames as much you want.
>>722507098>Fuck off retard address the argument.This only applies if an argument is presented. Saying "%thing% mid" isn't an argument. That's barely even an opinion.
>>722507570cruelty squad is ESL you half nigger, its for CS 1.6 enjoyers. are you calling 1.6 mid?
>>722499639trooncore just like ultrakill

>>722508179>liked by a bunch of autistic men with weird fetishesit's /v/core
>>722499639Wouldn't really say it insists upon itself, most elements beyond the aesthetics and gameplay can be ignored and make for a good experience. A game that insists upon itself would rather die than have someone ignore any amount of its >finely crafted ideas
>>722504123Flying at 9000mph with the grappendix and a tranq gun is very fun. Going fast in levels is fun in general. I'm sorry you're incapable of finding fun with tha many options at your disposal.
ITT a bunch of retards that haven't played a game claim they know what the theming is.
its ok but it has the millennial indie dev problem of the developer having a "good enough" mindset. its why psycho patrol R will be a tragically mid game.
>>722512078>I'm sorry you're incapable of finding fun with tha many options at your disposal.Game's not fun enough to make earning those things worth it. It's not fun before you get that shit and you have to play it more and then what... I can do some neato grapple tricks? Who fucking cares.
>>722499639I've never played it but as far as I know isn't this some game that's used as a replacement for having a personality? I swear every thread I've seen about this basically turns into "I like cruelty squad I'm so cool" It's kinda like LSD after that got popular
>>722499639It does a little insisting. It's funny, though. The combat is pretty cheap, though, no bones about it. $8, I don't know, not unless you're the type of guy to chase ranks and enjoys cryptic postgame bullshit. I'd say pirate it and see if it clicks with you at all first.
>>722512592Yes, because the game filters out actually well adjusted people of high intelligence through it's antagonistic visual attitude and mid gameplayThose can who tolerate the dev's overt hatred and disregard for them and their comfort end up coping like they're enjoying high art when it's just >Modernity is a soulsucking matrix of overlapping demons, designed to enslave you and break youBut it farts in your face every 30 seconds.
>>722512592lsd got popular again?
>>722512780t. filtered by the first level
>>722499639>does it insist upon itself?Not even remotely. Visuals will take a bit to get used to but as they're consistent in their inconsistency you get used to them fast.
>immersive sim where the only real way to play is to wait for enemies to round corner so you can shoot them in the head with the pistol
>>722499639amazing gameonly 4trannies hate it
>>722512592what the fuck are you talking about
>>722512592>I swear every thread I've seen about this basically turns into "I like cruelty squad I'm so cool"I remember calling them out on that back when the game was still fairly new. So glad other people started noticing this.
>>722499639I pirated it and I tried, I just don't get it. the ugly visual style tickled my nostalgia brain for like a few moments because it reminded me of ugly windows 95 era aesthetic but the novelty wears off in like 10 seconds.
>>722499639It was good before it got popular, no it didn't get updates after it got popular, it's just the fact that it's popular that turned it worse
>>722513192NTA but it was dwarf fortress all over again.>make a game with graphics that would put a lot of people off>develop a fanbase of people who think themselves as enlightened for liking a game that looks the way it does>suddenly the scapegoat becomes that anyone with criticisms of the game were filtered by the graphicsWhich in turn leads to the game being made out to be more complex than it actually is, see the meme quote of "dev spent ages making a complex immersive sim and then spent as much time making it look like he didn't" them you would play this and discover the game isn't even all that complex.
Nearly all of the levels in Cruelty Squad are a literal straight line. The game genuinely has nonexistent design in spots.
>>722514028I also like to make up people in my head to get mad at
>>722515126more like every map has one correct line and then two pointlessly obtuse lines.
>>722499639it does both? It's a good immersive sim game but it definitely insists upon itself
>>722505027Aaaaah, The Sky May Be...
>>722506730Gunplay can be quite fun once you expand your arsenal, however both graphics and audio are repulsive... yet it is done with a purpose, something that may or may not "click" with you. It's okay to not like it if it doesn't, personally I stopped at the first ending, even though I can see the game's actually well thought-out
>>722501897woahback to >>>/r/eddit
Why do Redditfags think this is a anti-capitalist game?
I'd say it's a pretty enjoyable game but you gotta be the kind of person that can stand the graphics. The secret finding is probably the best part but it's also half the game so keep that in mind.
>>722499639Its a game with a cool concept where you are just a mindless bloodthirsty killing machine navigating through an equally absurd and bloodthirsty world where shit like that is just the norm.Its general demeanor has got a kind of outsider charm where it doesn’t need to take itself too seriously beyond its concept. You are just a biologically enhanced monster designed to kill
>>722512592Secondary
>>722519963because it takes place in a hyper-capitalist dystopian setting
>>722514028youre just being autistic over the fact you dont like the game on principle and other people dofor every ironically bad thing, theres an unironically amazing thing abotu thte games' aesthetics, like the sound indicator for your magazinetheres lots of playstyle variety and crazy different ways to complete the levelsmost people are just not retarded, started finding the graphics good in its unique style as they found the cooler later content, and started pulling some crazy gameplay tricks. so they enjoy it
>>722515126>>722515868what the hell? not even the first level is a straight lineyou are doing something horrendously wrong and not figuring out piles of different routes and possibilities
