COULD SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!?

I'm YIKKing out

captcha really hates my browser

devs didn't really finish their game and have been sufferring the consequences ever since

YIIK I.V. is actually a decent game, no idea why so many people complained about it.

But in this case most people did indeed not get it
Not that getting it makes it good or anything but still, they really didnt get it.

Alex only likes women vaguely ethnic.
>>
>>736993253
while ALEX IS LITERALLY THE DEV'S SELF-INSERT LMAO angle is maliciously uninformed, YIIK defenders often end up being among the DIDN'T GET IT crowd as well how often muh unreliable narrator was invoked for the original release?
at which point, somebody gotta concede that the story is an incoherent mess where the writer's actual intentions WERE NOT properly conveyed to anyone at all
>>
>>736993624
It could be both incoherent but people also failed to understand it. But I can say with a 100% certainty that Alex isn't the author self insert because it's obviously kisage X and Claudio and Michael.
>>
>>736993969
1.5 is its own can of 3DEEP5YOU worms, i am talking specifically about original campaign
>It could be both incoherent but people also failed to understand it
is that not a contradiction? how can anyone "get it" if you can juggle interpretations back and forth to arrive at whichever point you want? YIIK is not like middens, not pure videogame-shaped surrealism, so you can't say there's nothing to get in the first place
>>
>>736993285
nah dude is coming back with twewy review
>>
Alex YIIK makes me shriik.

>>736993321
she's his sister
>>
>>736994250
It's not contradictory. People can make something overcomplicated or incoherent and people can also still fail to understand it. This happens a lot in a shitload of Media.
>>
>>736994671
You shouldn't be kissing Rory even if he is your sister
>>
>>736994763
But what if I thought Rory was a grill? He has beautiful hair.
>>
>>736994921
Why the hell would you think your sister was a grill?
>>
>>736994763
>>736994921
Rory is Alex's step brother so it's not incest just very gay
>>
>>736994680
>actually it's fine to make something deliberately incomprehensible because the audience is always at fault for failing to understand whatever you may have genuinely intended but also you are not obliged to actually say what was the point in the first place
i hope you are not earnestly arguing that sort of strawman of "failing to understand the work", but just pushing back against all the (perhaps unwarranted) accusations
it's really not a secret that the game had troubled development, which is a common enough occurrence to explain any and all underdevelopments and issues with the project
ergo, the responsibility (in case of YIIK specifically) for failing to represent ideas lies entirely on developers' own shoulders, it's a plain old failure of implementation
>>
>>736995026
I didn't even imply it's fine that YIIK is incoherent at times. I'm simply stating that it's not just the author's/dev's fault. Media requires the creator and the consumer and sometimes both can be fucking stupid. This isn't even new for videogames.

He took over his wife's Xitter account on April Fool's since he doesn't use any socials outside of YouTube. TWEWY video is reportedly coming soon. We're finally coming home, RSbros...
>>
>>736991645
okay so basically dood they got this thing called da collective consciousness and all your little ideas feed into this thing cause when you think it puts out brainwaves into the air and then those waves get trapped inside of the earth's magnetic field and reverberate endlessly for all time and what yiik is aboot is basically the story of the internet dwelling scrub getting wrapped up in the collective consciousness maze and being unintentionally tortured getting tortured by it because of his lack of wordly and spiritual understanding

all are deeply cringe
At least Undertale and Omori have some good porn

I don't know whether to be afraid or excited. Probably afraid. The series is already dead and I don't want secondaries sucking on its corpse.

Judging by view counts, secondaries didn't bother with anything after the YIIK video. The OoT vid, the runner-up in view count, barely got 1/4 of the views of the YIIK video. In any case, a channel with ~40k subs isn't going to flood a game's online discourse with a huge wave of secondaries pretending they've played the game.

Stories can have multiple interpretations but you have to play by the rules of interpreting stories still, most people were just saying retarded shit and not actually attempting to engage with it

Dunno what he was thinking with that Klonoa vid. He said he loves the game but the video is him just taking nonchalant cheapshot dunks on it like some ironybro
>>
>>736992317
I hate that joke. There's a couple jokes in that video that make me cringe half to death, like when he sings when his character's riding a skateboard. It makes me want to kill myself.

I love this game because without it, Running Shines review wouldnt exist.

>>737010751
I've seen people try to defend this by saying that word was "eliminate" instead. is there any credibiilty to that?
>>
>>737018032
No it says Lemonade because in-universe it’s just some random shit that showed up for the explicit purpose of preventing Alex from thinking about his dead sister
>>
>>736993253
Yeah they didn't get it because they were shit at communicating the idea.

The only hints that it's not actually 1999 are minor background elements and for you to somehow interpret the various minor oddities like Alex's 2010s hipster design as intentionally conflicting when it comes off as not properly researched.

If you leave the page as soon as you get connection failed it won't show up. I have problem solving skills.

whats the lore behind rory's hood hair?

I just let 4chanx post it and as soon as it throws the error that it failed I already know it will be posted in a minute or two, but maybe it depends on your connection

>>737018568
The year the game is “really” set in does not actually matter, people who obsess over it are just looking for things to complain about
>>
>>737018715
Here's something interesting. I didn't get a (you) from you for that.
>>
>>737018758
None of the posts I make with this method get tagged as mine, I have to do it manually, maybe it's related

His hair and hoodie was always meant to look like that. It's really that simple.
