Just finished this and it was actually pretty good. I expected it to be swamped with millennial soi writing, but it keeps it on a leash mostly (some cringe still slips through the cracks). Thoughts, /v/?
>>729364520Dogshit reddit vivziepop writing with the most annoying forced romance option in all of gaming in the form of a manbaby latina bitch. Blazer chads keep winning.
>>729364520Really? That's keeping it on the leash for you? Multiple dick and gay jokes? The ending that I'm pretty sure was written by a childless woman who treats her pets as her children?
>>729365430>Implying Blazer wasn't just as forced with being presented on a platter from episode 1 and then cucking her boyfriend the very next episode Fuck both of them, just give me the demon bitch
>dude what if superheroes had sex and said fuck and shit lmao
>>729364520I think I don't value the opinion of someone that unironically uses the term "soi millennial slop" to describe, well, anything.
>>729365631That's because you're a regressed millennial yourself
>>729364520Episode 7 and 8 were just incredibly dogshit at points. The problems around the """mystery""" with invisigal's writing just sucked dick.
No interest in a VN featuring a brownoid with a cow ring.
>>729365623>Describes every superhero.
>>729366709If you have Invisigal be a hero, she's already shown blowing up Shroud's cockpit with a grenade, but then Shroud is still going "she's actually on our le side" when he's on the roof and lets her roam free. You're right, there's some sloppy shit in there.
>>729364520It's a cool telltale game. It does good for what it is, it's nothing groundbreaking but it's satisfyingly fun. It's an 7/10. I'll add in another point for BB. I am looking forward for a sequel. For a new studio it's a great start ngl.
>>729364520>expected it to be swamped with millennial soi writing,And it was exactly that.>>7293673271. It's not a game.2. Yes, it's Telltale, so it's liquid shit that should only be watched on Youtube.3. Not a "new studio", ex Telltale shitters.
>>729367420>1. It's not a game.it is. visual novels are also games, especially the ones that include mini game sections. might as well say jrpgs aren't games.
>>729364520Why are you faggots shilling this gay shit?
>>729367698VN's are not games.>JRPG's are not gamesThey barely have any gameplay, so yeah.
>>729367698Can anyone explain to what is wrong with VN fags and their incessant insecurity?I mean I know you fags never play games, but why pretend?

>>729365496>Really? That's keeping it on the leash for you?Subverting the subversion of superhero genre in a good way.Great animation and direction (since they actually hired professional studio, rather than trying to make in-engine graphic)Great music.Nice and touchy writting, which easily flips between office workcom to romantic and dramatic moments without too much angst
>>729364520The quips during more serious moments made me cringe. I liked it for the most part tho, partly due to my tranime fatigue.
>>729368412>Nice and touchy writting, which easily flips between office workcom to romantic and dramatic moments without too much angstIt's generic Netflix writing, piss off. Also it's hard to take any of it seriously when MoistCritical is in there with his fursona.
>>729368507Embarrassing that MoistCritical is in this
>>729368507>It's generic Netflix writing, piss off.It's no more generic for capeshit than Andor for SW.>Also it's hard to take any of it seriously when MoistCritical is in there with his fursona.Well, it's more like your problem anon.
>>729364520I actually like an idea of indie projects using Steam for their content distribution, rather than trying to pitch their ideas to Netflix, HBO, Disney, Amazon etc.
>>729366709>Episode 7 and 8 were just incredibly dogshit at pointsNah, 7 episode was peak. (I wouldn't post Courtney's stare scene in the same episode, because it's a spoiler.)
>>729364520Robert owes Courtney kisses and Christmas gifts.
>>729365623>superheroes had sex If only
>>729368507show me a single netflix series with a white dude that isnt: an ugly goblin, a sissy, that gets the girl and can actually hold his ground against super powered beings>>729368832it only caters to straight white dudes BECAUSE all of those big gay corpos rejected them
>>729370695>show me a single netflix series with a white dude that isnt: an ugly goblin, a sissyDoes Ausies counts?
>>729365623Are you stuck in the 70s?
>>729364520Invincible at home
>>729367698Books and movies arent videogames. Are you mentally retarded?
>>729370894It does have gameplay ergo it's a videogame
>>729370893Which is great because Invincible went to shit.
>>729367420>And it was exactly that.Then millenials, despite their antics, actually have great taste in music and characters design.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8HAcsjot2o>still toughest choice of whom to cut
>>729364520Think it was alright. The themes they touch would benefit much more from a slow burn, think it was too short for a game that revolves around interpersonal connections so much. It's main strength is how refreshing the virtual adventure/interactive story/visual novel genre they went for feels in this era, imo the game could have been 3 times worse and I would still have enjoyed it because I missed playing these a lot.Also Visi wife.
>>729370695Did Robert know she would survive this?
>>729372075>implying Robert gave a fuck
>>729371983>The themes they touch would benefit much more from a slow burnAnimation costs money, they didn't even had time to reveal main secret who is Visi's roomate and probably pays all rent

>>729364520Basically exactly how I felt about it. I thought it would be shit but ended up buying it after watching an episode on youtube.
>>729372913Least simping /v/ poster
>>729372913>t.
>>729364520Managed to get no bitches at the end although i hoped vor Visi who randomly just switched sides at the end twice and doesn't want anything to to with we nowabsolute crappy writing
Bobert I drinked the gatorade under the sink again
>>729374336You just suck man, it's incredibly easy to redeem her and to get her to rape Robert in the locker room.
>>729364520I'm not playing the WEGslop.
>>729374561>Wahbut wii hab two fin Wehlingtin
>>729374568Man, i missed out. Even in vidya i cant get laid.Just because i wasnt sure what to feel after she confessed to me she was responsible for the bomb on my mecha suit. I didnt cut her from the team though!Also, i sucked at the dispatch part of the game so hard 99% of players were betterStill bad writing for my outcome bc it fucks up Shrouds ability to read others and Visi just goes full schizo mode
>>729364520/v/ is full of jaded and cynical fucks but I appreciate how this game actually has likeable characters and a relatable protagonist. It also doesn't try to deconstruct superhero tropes, the nice hot lady that saves you is genuinely just a good person and not secretly evil or manipulative.
>>729368832>>729370695Dispatch is a real eye opener for just how much those networks enforce all the current year bullshit
>>729368832Hermy needy choccy
>>729370695
>>729374602Animation is Thai-made.
>>729374925>>729374925>it fucks up Shrouds ability to read others and Visi just goes full schizo modeTomboy love is just so powerful (and she's so retarded) that he couldn't predict what she'd do next.
>>729375091We love our SEAGODS here.
>>729374926My main problem is that the team becomes friendly too quickly. They go from jaded villains to heroes too fast.
There are no earnest thoughts to be had anymore, anon. Just go look at the archived threads about this game.It's just deranged waifufags left at this point. Everyone that has anything of worth to say about this game has been driven out already.
>>729365430>t. asshurt slav who was cucked even from Steam Awards
>>729368412>Nice and touchy writting,Really? With that fucking ending?
>>729375396the game doesn't really convey this well but there's a decent timeskip between a lot of the episodes. The time between 3 and 4 for example is long enough for phenomaman to grow out his beard and royd to build and test several proto pulses.
normal dialog>youre late>sry, trafficDischarge dialog>did you lose your fucking watch in that flat fucking ass of yours? its already fuck shit ip oclock>yeah, im severly sorry, boss, but i was on fucking your mom duty and couldnt find the giant dildo
>>729375887Example?
>>729375701Yeah, you might be right. I actually do think I remember Robert saying it's been months in one scene. I would have liked more time dedicated to Robert in personal interactions with the team and how that could affect their attitude, but Invisigal hogs all the screen time. They kind of half-assed it with Flambe, but that didn't even matter in the end.
> Thoughts, /v/?I'm not giving you any, you brown piece of shit .
>>729375887lmao, spot on>>729375919play the game
>>729376002Probably for the best. It sounds like you don’t have any to spare
>>729376046>redditjack poster telling someone else to play a game they’re discussing
>>729375887There are too many sex jokes in this gameMoistshitical being in this game doesn't help either. He's the og pee pee dildo in ass jokes guy
In my playthrough there was only one moment in the whole story which actually made me feel anything in this shallow game.And it was the scene where black Einstein saved Visi and (almost) sacrifised himself for her. Only emotinal moment in the game.I hoped for more because i liked The Walking Dead series which had plenty of those.
>>729375887dont forget EVERY single sex joke is ALWAYS aimed at the make characters.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA7X1mZ_i24
>>729376271Black Einstein and Robert were the only relatable characters in the game
So which bar have better musicheroes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbAWUP0JpaQvillains:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RsGfZasF1E
>>729376440>Do you...like....:D>...Sour Patch Kids?:\ ..... :D
>>729377309She thought he was gonna ask her>Do you like the idea of us having 12 kids?
>>729377051Kissing someone else is a certified white girl bop
>>729364520>Thoughts, /v/?Should have cut the whole dispatch mini game and just done more visual novel style instead.So they could broaden the story, focus more on the characters and give them and the story more depth so you would actually care what's happening on screen.So, it's not worth 30 bucks and i would only recommend in a future sale for 5 dollars or so
>>729376467Keep up
>>729372492>execute function:Tory_Taylor
>>729377859What the fuck is his problem?
>>729376271The more I think about it, the more I think you're right. All the characters being over the top flamboyant is just a disguise for how shallow they are as characters.
>>729364520Surprisingly great and refreshing the very spirit of capeshit.
>>729378143They did the great job with everyone's costume, but it's actually worked well with Blazer, since originally she looked more like Starlight.
>>729364520Its just a shittier version of The Tick.
>>729377051Savage is what I play before I go out to the bars to feel cool. Kissing somebody else is what I play at 3 in the morning when I’m wasted and remembering the girl I fumbled in college. Both top shelf tunes.
>>729378578How is it like The Tick other than having superheroes in it?
>>729377830>Chase when he hears Mecha suit audiologs
>>729378897The Tick perfected the hero parody genre.
Little question from ESL.In episode 1, when Robert gets surrounded by goons with guns he says "figures". What's the meaning of it, does he refers to multiple enemies or "meh, obviously there is more of you"?
>>729379142Obviously.
>>729364520I strongly dislike that Americans think that to be a cartoon for adults you just need to make your writing as vulgar as possible.
>>729379142it means he should have known to expect more enemies when attacking the enemy base
>>729364520It's capeshit. Thought it'd be different from the usual because everyone seems to like it. But nah, it's just usual capeshit, but with fuck and college humor.
>>729375396First, it's workcom, and they had only 8 episode (so pacing 2 episodes for team being hot mess, 2 episodes for becoming an actual team and last 2 episode is return of the antagonist seems fine)Second, it's not a suicide squad,(and Robert is more competent than Waller) among the whole crew only one have first grade murder in it's dossier (and one should have an attempt), if they didn't want to become better they wouldn't be in Phoenix programm in the first place.Also, pretty sure Robert completely connects with team only in Ep5
>>729379286>>729379370TY.I just wanted to clarify, since context-wise both variants seemed valid
>>729369692Robert owes her safety helm.
The theme of the entire game is just>dude race mixing is... le good!
>>729379334Prose is by default vulgar and capeshit began as kid/teenage pulp fiction.
>>729380193>race mixing>when the best girl is an aryan blonde(brunette) white girlDid we play the same game
>>729380193And..?
>>729380193Yes.
>>729380193I seem to remember the theme being that if you gave people a chance and really supported them, they can and most often will do the right thing. I’m almost sure it was about second chances and redemption. But I guess it could be your thing too, I did wanna breed the brown girl.
>>729378982is Dispatch parody?
>>729380596Well I can't call it serious with that writing.
>>729380640it's comedic and light-hearted, sure, but it seems to be pretty earnest in regards to the superhero aspects.
It was unironically kino. Got snubbed at the GOTY awards. >>729365430>>729365496Cope redditor. YWNBAW, ever.
>>729380779If your idea of comedy is the word "fuck", sure I guess so.
>>729380894comedy is the most subjective form of entertainment there is. there are almost no comedies that the majority of people find to be funny.
Waterboy will undergo wiggerfication in season 2.
>BB has barely any screen time compared to IGFor what purpose?
>all it takes for /v/eddit to enjoy cringe whedonesque "Did I do thaaat?" writing is a white protagonist and romancesI knew this board had dogshit taste but it's genuinely upsetting to see it plain as day like this. I liked to pretend most anonymous posters are my intellectual equals but this simply shatters the delusion
>Donut wesit me Bobert.
>>729380779>but it seems to be pretty earnest in regards to the superhero aspects.I would say it's actually plays well with superhero aspects.Robert is modest and even conservative (he have fanbase, but doesn't try to crowdfunding repair of his suit durring his service) person, with right moral compass, yet he doesn't act like walking moral manual and doesn't hesitate to go dirty on the enemy, without turning story into miserywank (looking at you Ennis). And it's actually returns focus to the person behind the suit (not only in Robert's case)
>>729381284the devs were majority IGfags and internal playtests were 50/50 BB/IG so they didn't even consider they might have weighed one over the other until the game was out
One Liners - The GamePretty boring overallWould still fuck Visi anytime
>>729380193>sexy girls are le bad
>>729382176I wish, half the game is robert being everyone's psychologist>>729381576Ive read the interviews too but that's bullshitit's more than obvious visi is the main girl because CR paid for most of the game
I'm sad that the villainVisi ending will probably never be followed up on. Hero/Villainess romance is so underrated.
>>729382542They'll have to follow up on it in season 2, but they'll probably railroad her into becoming a hero again and rejoining Z-Team in the first few episode so it's still going to be disappointing.
>>7293825421) It's also much harder to write without turning it into abusive wankery2) There is not much avenue to progress this story beyond repeating first game route.
>>729382285>likes masculine womenOh look, a faggot and a traitor
>>729375691With episode 7https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoC_12Rh2EY&t=230s
>>729382924>>likes masculine womenI like women with curves
>>729382960it flies over your head the first time but the first real conversation visi has with Robert after she blows him up, is also when she says "You were a nerd playing a video game in a suit your daddy built"
>>729384150>You were a nerd playing a video game in a suit your daddy builtWas she trying to cope here and make herself feel less bad for fucking him over?
