why Mixtape anger you so much lol wtf? I've seen /v/ mad and angry and rage at stupid shit since 2005 but this takes the cake this is the most hilarious shit ever to hit /v/ I think we are close to end times have sex ?
Never heard of it, oh well back to playing Star Fox 64
>>738624773Because it's an early 2010s tumblr rendition of a Gen Xers coming of age story that's supposedly meant to appeal to Millennials despite the soundtrack being composed most entirely of 80s tracks that were already out of style by the late 90s/early 2000s (peak Millennial era), gameplay that's reminiscent of early 2020s mobile games, and artstyle that feels like it's from Trump's first term.
buh ign gave it a 10
The outrage is more about the 10/10 score. I played through it. If this is a big achievement in gaming then we're cooked
>>738624773Over a dozen threads, probably half of them from OP himself over the past day, none of which have any intent of discussing the game. >>738625213It's spam anon. Don't be a fucking chump.
It's too fucking hard. It needs an easy mode.
>>738624773I’m personally sick of these non video games catering to soi boi coastal elites getting high scores because it made them “feel” something. Mixtape isn’t a video game. It’s the same type of slop that Gone Homo was. The fact that this is rated higher than Pragmata, Crimson Desert and Mouse PI is insulting. Not because they’re amazing games (they’re pretty average) but because they’re once again showing that gameplay isn’t necessary to be considered a “good game”. I almost want to see them give it goty just to see the shitstorm that would unfold.
>>738625438All these Life is Strange, Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, Mixtape type games look the same to me in terms of gameplay and vibe. I take one look at the art style and the characters and know there's gonna be nothing relatable about it, and no gameplay to make up for it. If you want 90s nostalgia, go back and play the games you didn't have back then when budgets weren't bloated out the ass and you didn't have Redditors making non-games that only appeal to their west coast elitist childhoods. Back when developers actually tried to challenge the player instead of facilitating some "unforgettable eXpEriEnCe!".
It's not even worth getting mad about :^)
>>738625812Yup, what’s funniest to me is the soundtrack. Smashing Pumpkins aside, you would have absolutely been called a fag and gotten the shit kicked out of you by most suburban white kids if you were into most of the bands from mix tape. It’s a game for a very highly specific crowd of 90s hipster faggots. It completely fails at capturing the era. Those retards didn’t even understand how cassette tapes actually worked. It’s not even good nostalgia bait.
It’s not the game it’s where the institutional level funding is being appropriated in our hobby and the influence it has over what products get made
>>738624773
>>738624773because there's zero gameplay in what they sold to me as a VIDEOGAME
>>738625812>If you want 90s nostalgia, go back and play the games you didn't have back thenThis. Or play the games that actually try to bring back the style of that era. I had way more 90s nostalgia playing Scott Pilgrim EX than playing this shit
>>738624773This level of IESLB is just sad.
>>738624773I'm annoyed that for the past several years a bunch of rich nepobaby fucks are paying media outlets to shill their stupid non-games as indie darlings. Last year it was Expedition 33 (at least that was as an actual game), this year it seems to be Mixtape, and I fear that the trend will continue indefinitely.
shame about the retardation, because the art was pretty good, except the low-fps animation which was a dumb decision since everything else moves normally.The menus are incredibly well done, I hope whoever made the UI goes to an actual vidya studio because UIs have been absolutely dogshit in the last decade.
>>738624773/v/ likes to pretend they're this white guy from the Boondocks meme, but they're more like the nigga chimpin' out over shit that has nothing to do with them.
>>738626516>except the low-fps animationmore nad more people are doing it, and it's clear it's being mandated by people who aren't animators and don't know why you'd want to change animating on one, two, and so on. They don't know WHY the stuff they're copying worked with what they did.
the reaction to this game just tells me that /v/ cant enjoy the little things in life
>>738624773>game financed by Larry Ellisons daughter>Larry Ellison one of the richest people on the planet>she paid for a soundtrack not even movies could secure>she paid off every game reviewer site to give it perfect scores>greased the palms of influencers with merch so they would glaze the game>entire game is an autorunner about teenagers destroying their neighborhood, lighting forests on fire and getting an aww shucks dey just kids from the police when they're caughtEntire thing is a nepo baby fake nostalgia cringe
>>738626670>she paid for a soundtrack not even movies could secureLol, how expensive are Jesus & the Mary Chain are Portishead?
>>738626670The family also bought TikTok and CBS so they could shape the media narrative. The family is insidiously jewish.
>>738626647>game
>>738624773My main issue with the game is the extremely high review scores by gaming outlets on something that is literally not a video game.>There is no failstate>There are no winners and losers>You cannot fail actions. The game simply continues if you do nothing or waits for you to hit a buttonBy definition it is not a GAME. Why does this bother me? Because it makes no sense that a video GAME can get a score of 10/10 while completely failing half of the fucking word. It is Video, but it is not GAME.>Why do you care about reviews? Are you a fag?I care because the industry cares. Executives care. Customers care. Publishers care. Studios receive or do not receive based on scores. This just exposes (what we already knew) how retarded and arbitrary the review system is. If you really reviewed Mixtape as a GAME, what are you giving it realistically? I mean really, I want to know what you'd actually give it as a GAME. Like your bro invites you over Friday night to have a few beers and play a game with him and he pulls out this. Like are you enjoying the "gameplay"?Can we just officially make a new word/category for these video non-games? I mean VNs fall into the same category. Walking simulators fall into that category. You don't even need to be disrespectful because there are many well written and emotional VNs that resonate with people... but they're not GAMES.
>>738624773It's obvious the 10 from ign was bought and paid for. Just follow the trail>Mixtape game>Published by Annapurna Interactive Who is Annapurna Interactive?>Founded by Megan EllisonWho is Megan Ellison?>Jew whose father is Larry Ellison Who is Larry Ellison?>Former CEO of oracle who is also the 2nd richest person in the world currently It's just more gay jewish slop trying to push some faggot agenda. You should hate this on principle.
>>738624773So true brother you tell them
zionist coded "game"
>>738626670>>738627347do the woke free palestine leftoids know that this "woke" coded game is funded by a ZOG Trump mega-donor?
>>738624773>Why do people reject industry plants!?!You are mtf
>>738624773why do you care what others think about the game so much lol wtf? the game isn't your boyfriend lmao
>>738627279>ellison are all over this gameOh man, must be some kind of cia slop funded by "interests"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQUzRrGFdeQ
>>738627463do you think left wingers look beyond the curtain they worship for even a second?
>>738624773I'm mostly upset that a game focused so heavily on music has such a boring ass soundtrack. When Stan Bush's The Touch is one of the big highlights of your... game, you've got problems.
>>738626038>Iggy Pop>J&MC>The Cure>Portishead>Siouxsie & the Banshees>Lushsounds based to me
>>738624773Least obvious shill, add this trash to the pile of wokeshit flops nigger.
>>738628326Now post which songs they picked. Spoiler alert: They're not the good ones.
>>738628546You mean they picked deep cuts and not singles that the casuals know? That sounds based too.
>>738626038>you would have absolutely been called a fag and gotten the shit kicked out of you by most suburban white kids if you were into most of the bands from mix tapeCobain wrote the In Bloom about meathead poser faggots like you.
>>738628831>meathead poserI also use insults I just learned.
>>738628660I bet you listen to running Up That Hill on repeat and tear up every time.
>>738629114Actually, I've currently been listening to this on repeat for like half an hourhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMExJNj9qt4
>>738624773Games should be graded on what they are trying to be, and how well they execute on that. Mixtape is perfection, because they knew what they were going for, and made it exactly to spec. Is it perfect for everyone? Fuck no, and thats not the point. For who it is made for, it is unquestioningly a 10/10 game. Elden Ring is a 10/10 for the same reason. Does everyone want to play a punishing game? Fuck no. But it's still a 10/10. Of course the average gamer is a single digit moron, so they will never understand this and think it's some culture war they must win. Did Astro Bot push some woke agenda? No. It was a platformer that delivered on exactly what it was trying to be.
I don't know what this is I'm not going to look it up and I'm sure it's trannies vs chuds for something stupid insignificant and meaningless That's my opinion and I am 100% without any further context that I am completely correct so I'm sorry that happened or I'm happy for you
>>738624773wasnt this the game confirmed to be boted and astroturfed ? It's tied to israeli elites, funny if true.
>>738629172>listening to any song on repeatI knew you were one of those
>>738629114The worst thing to come out of Stranger Cunts is that song being played on my local radio station daily, it really proves normies have no opinions of their own and are told what to like.
>>738629321What the 30 threads that got spammed with no pedophilia wasn't a cue for you?
>>738629193So it was trying to be a bad game on purpose. Good on them. I will then treat it like I would any other bad game: into the trash it goes.
>>738629193It's not a fucking game. Stop pretending it is. That is my problem. You cannot judge this on a scale like a video game because it lacks the game component. No fail state, no game.
>>738629114only good scene in that entire showstrong anime aesthetic
>>738628831How is the transition going, sister?
>>738629236It's just a very dull game with a lame soundtrack and no gameplay. The dialogue was quite literally written by a middle-aged guy who watched the Transformers animated movie far too many times. It's clear a lot of money was poured into advertising, so it makes it come off as if its publishers will do anything to make sure this game doesn't fail. And judging by the reviews, there's no way some of them aren't paid.
>>738624773no one will care about this trash once the astroturf campaign end in a week
>>738628831And your faggot ass is writing "In Troon" rn
>>738624773If you HAVE been here since 2005, you know this is a FUCKING PLANT. We are mad because it's 1,000,000% bullshit and people are trying so fucking hard to push it like its JUST NORMAL TO GET 10/10 OUT THE GATE with a player base of 1000.....
The worst part of mixtape is that it’s a movie game that would be a bad movie. It’s a weak story that is carried by “vibes”(licensed music). Slop is overused but very applicable in this case. This is video product for NPCs.
>>738630070Lmao
>>738629873Transitionin deez nuts into your mom's mouth
>>738629729>single digit IQ strikes as expected>>738629784Do you lose in Minecraft's creative mode? Can you game over in Animal Crossing? Are they not games?
>>738630678Those have engaging gameplay.
>>738624773people here are lonely and seek community by collectively shitting on things. game looks ass and pretty sloppily made, like the blonde girl and dude's faces look basically exactly the same except with differences in skin tone and hair length/color but at this point if you get mad by non-game "indie" slop instead of just ignoring it you just like outrage culture
I played a bit, it boils down to>this is what I should've done in that situation from 10 years ago!>I was born in the wrong generation!!>my favorite tumblr said the 90s were really like this!!it really insists upon itself and has some weird wishful thinking vibes.skating around really breaks the immersion cus nobody used skateboards to get around in the mid 90s. only good thing I have to say is that it looks decent when nothing's moving, the stop motion shit is really jarring.it kind of reminds me of that yiik game but worse/10.
>>738630762I can't take you guys seriously when you have WEG threads.
>>738630852I'm a tourist to the board and only came here to laugh at the "game"
>>738624773I felt it wasnt gay enough
>>738624773>billionaire jew financed it>talentless nepo baby whore made it>journo class slaves padded its numbers>failed to reach an audience so it was propped up by the first 3 pointsits a perfect storm of shit
>turns out it's a nepo baby product made by the daughter of one of the richest men in the world>omega astroturfed>also a jew who constantly donates millions to Israel defence forceshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgpwHwPw7zcJesus fucking christ how HORRIFYING
>>738624773>I think we are close to end times have sex ?SAAAAAAAAAR
I'm so fucking tired of seeing this game spammed everywhere. I don't give a shit about it, it looks like trash. Fuck off.
>>738624773fake nostalgia, like how they make everything set in the 80s just be "dude neon"
>>738631126There's no product retard, it's actual goyslop.
>>738628831I'm glad he fucking died early. He was a trans-activist and ultra-feminist back in the 90s. Imagine how fucking insufferable he'd be today. Alice in Chains were the better grunge band out of the Seattle grunge scene anyway.
Mixtape is my goty, getting 10/10 is well deserved
>>738632060Yeah but you work for a PR firm, your opinion means nothing.
>>738632120Wish I got paid for this but I'm just an oldfag
>>738624773you must be brand new here. this is a normal week on this god forsaken hell hole.
>>738625089So was undertalebut all you faggots slurped that shit like it was liquid gold
>>738631182what?
