Why do zoomers hate this game so much? This game was NOT made for you, it's a love letter to millennials growing up in the 90s
It was literally made for LARPing zoomers
>>739022604Just like Stranger Things right?
>>739022510american burb kids in the 90s*
>>739022806yes just like Stranger Things
>>739022934Why the main audience is just millennials then?
>>739022510I grew up in the late 90's and this game is a hate letter to me and my friends. It puts music and movies way above games, it doesn't have wrestling, south park, or anything else that was actually popular in '99 and it messes up so many things like the skateboard designs, using cassettes at all, and having wireless headphones. The whole game feels like a Gen Xer or Zer's idea on what Gen Y was. It's bullshit.
>>739022867Made from the eyes of an aussie
Good ragebait OP
>>739022510millenials did specifically NOT grow up in the 90s though, that was gen x.
>>739022510It's just a bunch of worthless assholes running around trying to get drunk and then every five minutes some dipshit starts monologuing to the camera about some random 80s song no one has ever heard of or cares about.t. millenial who grew up in the 90s
>>739023047g8 b8 m8 I r8 8/8
>>739022972The lack of real 90s music really bothers me.
>>739022510>hate i don't, i just don't care, seems like it's woke slop
>>739022510manufactured hate and hype
>>7390225101) it isnt a game2) the writing is awful 3) caring about an ign review score is lulz.
>>739022958the has no main audience, no one is playing this garbage
Nobody actually played this so they don't know how bad the writing actually is. It's bad.
>>739022510i grew up in the 90sthis game is just industry plant woke slop.
>>739023142Yeah, that too. No Linkin Park, No Greenday, Sum 41, Disturbed, Metalica, Prozac, Chumbawamba, Blink 182, etc.This game fucking failed at recreating the 90's and 90's nostalgia. It felt like the 80's with 2026 dialog/cringe.
>>739022972>1999>96 Quite Bitter Beings by CKY isn’t played once in the whole gamewho wrote this shit?
why are we getting dragged into this, it's like every chance millennials get they want to create some sort of conflict or controversy with us, i get it, you think competition will drive creativity and somehow every one wins because of it, like a cultural/generational space race or something. i am over this shit, i don't care to hate millenials or to try one up them or ape them in anyway. we all like what we like, lets just leave it at that
>>739022958>>739022510millenial here, it sucks and is not made for me, also OP is a faggot(probably)
>>739023295man all those bands suck
>90s>No Nirvana>No Alice in Chains>No Soundgarden>No Stone Temple Pilots>No Alanis Morrisette>No 2pac>No Biggie>No Korn>No No Doubt>No Goo Goo Dolls>No Hole
>>739023341>it's like every chance millennials get they want to create some sort of conflict or controversy with usyou could not be more wrong. the generational argument is nothing more than an engagement farm, probably made by a 3rd party interested in starting a flame war for that sweet sweet advertisement revenue. the amount of times this shit is levied against gen m is just as preventant as the same shit levied against gen z. realistically your just allowing confirmation bias to cloud your perspective. but don't worry, it's just a farm.
>>739023579man all those bands suck
>>739023243I watched it on twitch so I may as well have played it.>WE NEED TO GET DRUNK I THINK MY SISTER HAS SOME LIQUOR IN HER ROOM>GUYS I'M GONNA PICK BACKGROUND MUSIC FOR MOVIES WHEN I GROW UP I'M BASICALLY AN ARTIST>OH FUCK MY SISTER HID THE LIQUOR IN THE WOODS>MY MIXTAPE THO>OH NO THE PARTY GOT BUSTED WE GOTTA GET DRUNK IN THE WOODS INSTEAD>OHH FUUUCKK YEAHHH I'M SO FUCKING DRUNK FUCK YOU DAD OH SHIT WHY IS EVERYTHING ON FIRE OH WELL WHO CARES THE END
It's fine as an interactive movie/music video art piece. The story is pretty by the numbers cliche coming of age story, very shallow sadly when you remove all the mini-games and music stuff, but it's effective enough. Music in the game is awesome, the editing and presentation is amazing. The party at the end is the single most accurate experience of a party captured in a movie or video game, the way the characters interact with you, people are doing stupid shit, tonnes of stupid conversations people have etc. Great stuff. The walking through the video store high/drunk is also a great and pretty accurate scene to many a weekend of my life in the late 1990s-late 2000s lol.But I have some issues with the game.>Not accurate to 1990s, actually feels more like a late millennial take on the mid-late 2000s desu>Story is too shallow, should have had branching routes and parallel stories following several groups trying to make it to the party that come together in the end. Dazed and Confused, Human Traffic and Go are better coming of age stories. (they are movies though)>Story needed to be a bit fleshed out a bit more, should have had a small epilogue of the characters going their way on their new life>Dialogue definitely not accurate to the period, but you couldn't get away with "Fag/Dyke/Retard" quota for accurate teen speak in the 1990s/2000s in a game today though lol.Themes make sense as a millennial game though, us Millennials have never really been able to own homes, we've been stuck in short term leases since 2008, relationships are temporary, you bounce from one friendship group to the next as you're forced to move from one place to the next. In that way the game resonating with millennials makes sense. So many times I've had phenomenal friendship groups, that we've broken apart due to everyone having to go to jobs and lives in different cities or whatever.
Going through the playlist for this game, and nobody was listening to this stuff in the 90s. What is The Touch and Dare even doing on this list? This is a meme soundtrack. If they had the Power Ranger's theme they'd at least be in the right decade.
>>739022510t. MillenialI didn't peak in high school so Im not super nostalgic for my youth
>>739023903>millenials are the only generation that ever experienced losing touch with old friends when you graduate high school
>>739023918Stan Bush was huge for The Touch which played in the Transformers movie you fucking poser....
Also, like I said in the other thread, hope there is a version of this game sort of made, about the rave scene, madchester to goa/psy to stadium trance to DnB/Jungle/Garage to Big Beat. The late 80s-1990s rave scene is the single most underutilized coming of age setting in media, only Human Traffic and to a lesser extent Go and Groove have even attempted it.
>for millennialsI'm sorry for your shitty childhood if you feel any emotion with mixtape.
why do you niggers keep making threads of this dog shit game that peaked with 2k players
>>739023565>>739023836You know something... YOU suck!
>>739022510What? Everyone pissing and shitting themselves over this is at least 35.
>>739023976While not true, I think it resonates with Millennials, because we're the first big generation that has been totally transitional through our entire adult lives. In the past 10 years I've lived in 4 different cities lmao. Most of my friends are the same, different cities/countries than where they were 10 years ago.Gen X/Boomers had a life where largely honestly, your High School or University/College friends were basically your friends for life.
Yeah I'm prime target audience for this I think and I only recognize at most 3 names on this entire list and to my knowledge have never heard any of these songs in my life.>>739024027>the Transformers movieLOL
>>739022510Every person I've ever met that were born during the 80's always ended up being turbofaggots.
everybody who grew up in the 90s is dead now this game is for no one
>>739024205>LOLYou had to be there to understand zoomzoom. It was a big fucking deal, it was also Orson Welles last film
i think the problem with this game is that it's a 90's game by the mind of someone born after 2000's
The 90s sucked and simply was a distraction from the jews plot. 9/11 changed nothing it was just another step on the road to moloch’s domination over the world
>>739024205The tracks are genx/boomer, the setting and characters are millenial, the art style colors and whimsy are zoomer. Everyone is its prime target.
>Yeah bro, weren't the 90's so cool? I'm glad I was a millennial! Better than being a zoomer!>Born in 1996
>>739024331Nah, they were born in 1995, so they grew up in the 90s.
>>739024027The Transformers soundtrack was 80s butt rock. Nobody cared who the fuck Stan Bush was. Dare to be Stupid was a bigger hit and at least got play time on MTV. It's popular now because of nostalgia. And there were plenty of movies that came out later that had music with an actual cultural impact at the time of their release. Where's muh Kiss from a Rose? The MK movie thing? Huey Lewis and the Fucking News!
>>739022510>it's a love letter to millennials growing up in the 90sahahahahaha nothing says 90s nostalgia like an animation style popularized in the late 2010s, gameplay that would feel at home next to Subway Surfers from 2012, music from the 80s like Stan Bush - The Touch, and skinny jeans hipster fashion for skaters instead of baggy JNCO jeans and a backwards hat. There's nothing to relate to about this dogshit.Go to any nostalgia thread on /v/ from the late 90s and early 2000s if you want an accurate portrayal of core Millennial nostalgia. Better yet, play pic related, as it's made by an actual Millennial and captures what it was like far better than this shit made by an out of touch Aussie who never even visited the US prior to the 2000s.
>>739023142All they had to do was pick up any THPS game and look at the soundtrack. That's all they fucking had to do.
>>739024331And a "friendship" story by someone who's never had any actual friends.
>>739022510it's a moviegame made by a failed theatre kid with no real gameplay based on "nostalgia" that she invented in her mind based on an era she never actually experienced
>>739024432This is the fundamental issue. You got two types of millennials. Those who were born in the 80's and were teens during the 90's. And those who grew up in the 90's and have more in common with those who were born in 1997-2003 than anyone from the 80's.
>>739023579I remember Ross's dream playlist for Life is StrangeStill mogs this game's, and appropriately 90s
>>739024027I love The Touch, and liked a lot of old 60, 70s, and 80s stuff that'd play on Vh1 back then. Would have it on all the time with my Mom who introduced me to all the classics. That doesn't change the fact that it's not 90s nostalgia. 80s music was not in vogue in the late 90s, it was all rap, punk pop, trance, and eurodance. This game only appeals to the nichest of niche alternative tastes.
>>739024674this one is really nostalgic
>>739022510its the 2020s version of Gone Home. Short 1-2 hour long game. Reviewers give it 10/10 despite not deserving it. Industry plant, etc.
>>73902484590s kids and 80s kids basically, huge discrepancy. 80s kids were way more rebellious than 90s kids, and it shows in the writing for this game since it was made by a guy born in 1980.
>>739024845she's pretending to be nostalgic over an era she did not experiencei was born in 91i didn't listen to music on fucking cassette tapesi had a walkmanwe had CDswe pirated music on limewirethis dogshit "game" with no gameplay is the result of a retarded theatre kid who failed at filmmaking several times so she tried to make a moviegame and had her rich daddy pay for positive reviewsnobody with actual friends would write a game like this btw
>>739022510Its the fakest shit imaginable. Some Australian fag pretending to have an American upbringing has no value
>>739022958it's not
>>739024631>Where's Kiss from a RoseFeatured in the shitty new Lego bamham
>>739022510>ign gave this a 10 and outer wilds a 8.4grim
>>739024898I'm not saying it's period appropriate, only that it's a core nostalgiabait song. The Transformers movie was a huge deal to 80s kids, if you were trying to appeal to 80s kids you'd play The Touch.Exhibit A: the xbox360/ps3 rerelease of MVC2https://youtu.be/Z6Dbbi77QWc?si=GXMDHKbpCse_1v4b
>>739025059i'm starting to believe that writing a story in a specific period because you want to nostalgiawank over it, whether you experienced it or not, is actually fucking stupid, and it should be just the setting/set dressing for an actual fucking story you want to tell instead of "dude old things"i could be wrong. but i don't feel like i am
>>739025330I respect any movie set prior to 2001 for the sake of "this film doesn't have cell phones" but yeah trying to make me EPIC BACON NOSTALJ over my childhood is fucking gay
>>739025371The introduction of cell phones was horrible for bad writing but in general just means you just have to have someone go 'oh no no reception' when they're stuck in the killer cabin in the forest or whatever. Everyone has cell phones IRL now and we still have fuckloads of problems every day that aren't solved by being able to call someone or Google something but that's the only kind of problem that makes for Big Movie Writing.
>>739025330It can be done, the problem is it takes effort and research. It is easier to make things up.
>>739022510The current cabal that's destroying gaming set out to purge the world of all media that's not made for them.The big difference maker between us and them is that they're doing it for political power and ego while we're hobbyists who are tired of the annual GDP of a small country being thrown at destroying at our hobby.
>>739025330It's all it should've been in the first place. None of these faggots know how to write, they're a bunch of untalented nepotists given free reign to spitefully push their agendas because the world has basically stopped turning for everyone else in the underclass that doesn't buy into the subversion of left-wing politics. It's all the same 45+ year olds that it's been for over 15 years making slop after slop with unlimited money.
>>739022510I grew up in the 90s. The 90s were my friend. These are not the 90s.
I was born in the 90s and this game is repulsive and cringe to me.
>>739025518I just thought of the perfect setup for a horror movie>The kids going to the killer cabin all update their smartphones to the latest OS but the retarded jeets pushed a change that bricks the phone. Now you have a reason they can't use their phones AND it's totally believeable.
>>739025546>the problem is it takes effort and research.years ago, i read 11/22/63, the stephen king novel about a guy who goes into the past to stop the jfk assassination, and i remember reading an interview later where he talks about how he had to do a bunch of research for the novel and had never really done a project like that before, with the wikishitia page citing things like 'the price of a hamburger,' and it made me realize two things:1. most writers and storytellers and such are absolute hacks who put in only the bare minimum of effort and success is based on a combination of luck and already being a household name/shitting out so many books that one has to hit, and2. that fucker was born in the 40s and was already alive and into adulthood in the 60s, and couldn't remember any of it because he was drugged out of his fucking brain-pan every day of his life, which correlates with #1
>>739025518I think I'd rather modern movies just not have them at all, no character has a phone, no character looks at a phone, noone mentions shit about phones, if a phone is absolutely necessary make it a landline phone. Let redditors cry it out.
>>739022510>No hip hop>No electronica>No real skater culture>No vidya>Almost no actual 90s slang, most of the slang is fucking zoomer shit>Barely any 90s music in a "game" supposedly set in the 90s>Feels like it's trying to be an 80s John Hughes movie than anything 90s-inspiredYou can tell this game was made by people who had the safest, whitest childhoods imaginableThe target audience seems to be game journos and other people with similarly lame upbringingsThere are way better games if you want something evocative of the 90s teen experience
Why does /v/ hate a game about growing up and sharing valuable experiences with your friends? We might never know!
Heavy Rain was way better.
>>739022510The writing doesn't even ynderstand what decade it's supposed to be, and just kinda lumps everything from the 60s to the 90s and even early 00s all in together. It feels like AIslop.
Honestly? This game is easily in my top 5 games of all time. It's so real, so raw and emotional. I'm not sure how a small indie team pulled this off, but they did. Makes me think all of the hate is jealousy from other indie game dev teams. They can't stand the fact that Mixtape raised the bar so freakin' high. Silksong walked so Mixtape can run, and the chuddie devs are left seething in the dust.Seriously cannot wait to see what the team delivers next, I'm ready!!
>>739025786I never thought about how many cyberpunk-adjacent stories have wetware and cyber-cars and VR terminals and stuff taken over by Bad Guy or Evil Corporation to stop the (anti)hero in his tracks at the worst time possible, but never just have something not fucking work because it was programmed by nepo hires and thirdies and manufactured by the lowest bidder.
the 90's didn't look like this.This is just Ferris Beuller through the filter of modern hipster trends.
>>739025928Back then we thought that some things will never change, like having people who know their shit do the assigned work, not giving it to the lowest bidding retard whose only qualification is shameless lying.
>>739025856It's made by people who want to sanitize and rewrite their childhoods to satisfy the ideologically nepotistic peers they surround themselves with. It's all a giant clique that's doesn't connect to the rest of us.
>Supposed to be hipster kids from the 90's >Bitch literally puts the main theme from the Transformers cartoon movie on her mixtapelmao
>>739025852this all makes me consider how there's actually a lot plot-wise you can do with phones BEFORE the 90s/80s since one company controlled the entire phone system from the switching centers all the way down to the phone on your table that you had to actually rent from ma bell, but that's such an autistic and specific area of interest that there is literally zero overlap with anyone writing this kind of stories (or stories in general probably)
>>739023579No rap or hip-hop at all is fucking hilarious
>>739024489>born in 1995pffft. So they have at best the haziest memories of the very end of the 90's, when they were four years old?
>>739022867I grew up in the suburbs in the 90s. Can I get my dick sucked by an ugly fat goth chick while my parents are at work?
>>739026081holy shit
>>73902498680's kids just run their mouths and think they're really cool for some reason. They never actually *do* anything.
>>739024489What are you, retarded? I was born in 1985 and I BARELY grew up in the 90's.
>>739023142>not a single Janes Addiction song
>>739025856>no rampant homophobia, that not one even really thought was a bad thing at the timeI swear, proclaiming that things were gay, and trying not to look gay was about 80% of my childhood. There were all kinds of strange agreed upon ideas, like buttoning up your top button, or wearing shoes that were too clean made you gay.
>>739026421Pant legs that left your socks visible? Fuckin' gay dude.
>>739022510To not hear a single song by:GarbageThe ProdigyBeastie BoysBloodhound Gang (Although their popularity peaked in early 2000s)GarbageNine Inch Nails Cypress HillDoesn't seem right to me.
>>739025165
>>739027045ah good ole DSPi wonder what he is up to nowadays, probably the same but still, he got really boring and I quit years ago
How many layers of reverse psychology are you going to keep doing to make this "art" of a game look appealing
>>739022510maybe we should have a word filter for 'zoomer' etc.every single post using that word seems to be extremely low quality
So do people still respect game journalists after how obvious they were bribed by a billionaire's daughter to put her shitty game on a pedestal?
>>739027296i mean, we were talking about this ten years ago, and no. No one respects game journalists.
>>739022510>game
>>739022510I love music.
>>739027296I don't think anyone has respected (or used) them since like 2014. Online game journos are dying, just like gaming magazines did before them, and are purely performative at this point.
>>739027296I think it's hilarious this turd got a 10 but I am convinced it's because the writer is a retarded zoomer creatura with dogshit taste, but I can't call him a shill when he gave MW a 4/10, higher ups at IGN probably want to fire his fat ass unless the contrarianism brings in clicks
>>739022510If you want to make a movie, you know which form of visual media provides the director with the greatest ability to produce a tight, focused narrative experience that presents the audience with nothing but the interesting stuff and create the exact combination of visuals and sound that he envisions in his head? Movies.If these game journos were as sophisticated when it comes to the arts as they like to view themselves, they'd recognize the walking simulator genre as a straight downgrade from movies and would understand that ludo-storytelling is the thing that videogames can do that movies can't (the chosen undead is a badass because Dark Souls is a challenging adventure). The idea that the walking simulator is going to be the matured form of videogames is a ridiculously low IQ take.>Yeah, but videogames are popular and I want clout! I also think that it'll be easier for my movie-game to stand out than if I had just made a movie!Fuck right off.
>>739027296It's not that we respect them. It's a case of their scores are being used to manipulate the industry. So while gamers know not to trust or respect them the normalfags don't and normalfags are too prevalent. That's why we can't just go "eh whatever"Not to mention that the journos side with the politically obsessed freaks that want gaming to solely be propaganda. If we want games to have any hope of remaining fun and not just be a pile of slop for Hollywood obsessed faggots and politically obsessed rats we need to keep calling out the faggot journos when they try and do this shit.
>>739027296nobody trusts videogame journalists but I'll confess that I have no idea how they are still relevantI wouldn't be surprised if they are being funded by investors with political agendas at this point
>>739022510I don't like the game because I didn't grow up with friends :(
>>739027685It's all because they don't respect games as an artform. It's why they call a game mature solely based on content.If we started rating games with age ratings based on gameplay so many of the big "artistic masterpieces" would be rated for ages 3+ while games like Sonic, Spongebob and Mario would be rated T or even M. Because for some weird reason a game isn't mature unless it holds your hand like your a retarded child still watching children's edutainment shows where there's "audience participation" segments. Shit like>CAN YOU SEE THE MOUNTAIN?>*pauses for 3-5 seconds*>THAT'S RIGHT, THERE'S THE MOUNTAINand of course obnoxious levels of yellow paint and other extremely obvious hand-holding tactics.Somehow the games for kids letting you explore and solve things for yourself trust and respect you more than those supposed M rated titles.
>>739028064Many such casesToo many people working in the industry failed to make it in Hollywood, and had to settle for gaming, which is a constant source of frustration for them
>>739027278You seem to have some serious issues going on, and I hope you have someone to talk to. I honestly feel like saying anything further would be bullying a clearly fragile individual, so I'll leave you alone now.
>>739029642is this a bot?
>>739022510>gameIt's a barely interactive movie. Gameplay consists of a few QTEs to do things like moving your tongue inside another person's mouth, pretending to control a character on a skateboard, and rewinding a cassette tape with a pen. None of which have a real fail state.It's a game made by someone who has never played games about living in an era they didn't experience. Literally everything about it is fake, especially the review scores. Which is actually kinda kino in its own way.
>>739022510No millennial lived the life depicted in that shit.For starters, the characters never got knocked out after being called faggots.
I am old and I do not care for ""games"" where the most thoughtful application of any sense of pacing to the gameplay is how often it makes you pick up the controller in the first fuckin' place. Cinematic slop.
>>739027603Asmongold has it right. If you want to be popular, repeat people's opinions back to them. People love Fallout New Vegas, so if you want to be popular, say that Fallout New Vegas is amazing. If you want to be unpopular, say that Fallout New Vegas sucks. People hate Concord, so if you want to be popular, say that Concord sucks. If you want to be unpopular, say that Concord is amazing.The left has to insist that this isn't true because attacking media that seems like it was created by Reddit makes you poplar while defending it makes you unpopular.
>>739022510>This game was NOT made for youI'm 33 and this interactive movie wasn't made for anyone who actually enjoys video games.
>>739025862I wasn't aware trying to burn down your hometown because your dad gave you good advice was "part of growing up".
>>739023295Man, I hate all of those bands except for Metallica and I don't even like Metallica. Nu metal and pop punk sucked.
>>739024205That soundtrack is legitimately great with a ton of good bands but I wouldn't associate it with 1999.
>>739022510I'm in that generation, game is the cringy as fuck. You can just tell this story was written by the annoying kid that thought they were cool.Like people that were actually rebellious back then never ran around talking about how rebellious they were. The only kids that did that were posers that were annoying as fuck and no one wanted to be around since they were too cringy.
>>739024305There were Transformers and there was TMNTyou weren't really into both at the same time other than the marketing, but TF made you dive into rock bands and it made sense for broken homes>like being a fan of Naruto and Bleach at the same time
>>739032358>interactivelolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OZVtZRnRF4
>>739023903Great, now explain the wildly mismatching frame rates.
>>739026081I knew they were aliens with levitating powers all along.
>>739022958It literally isn’t.>>739022604This.
>>739022510This sounds like a spoiled rich kid's idea of a middle class upbringing.Guess what? If I had gone around causing problems and being belligerent, I would have gone to juvie and gotten cut off from my family. And that's exactly why my neighborhood wasn't a terrible place to grow up.
>>739022510Not a 10/10 because it's gameplay is barely existent but I did like the story. Watching a let's play gives the same experience as playing it. 7/10 from me.
>>739022958Millenial here, why do you think this garbage was made for me? I don't feel identified in any form watching this trash. I don't get nostalgia for any of this shit. This feels like the idea of a zoomer of what the 90s were like, but after they passed it through a filter of their own shit ideas that only apply to the current year
This game was made by a Jewish billionaire. The game has nothing to do with the 90s or millennials. The characters are self inserts from the souy cuck writers or head devs. All of the reviews were bought
>>739033874I was there for that stream, absolute unreal.
>>739022510>g...game you say?!, like... uhmm with gameplay?
>>739022510it feels more like someone trying to cash in on my youth.it needs to be more than just a generic coming of age story, the setting should preserve a true encapsulation of the time + place in history. Its a sadly looked over time + culture in history.oh well, im not playing it and I’m making my own game about the late 90s/early 2000s. It deserves to have a real honest telling of the story.
>>739022510what's your guys' favorite 90s music?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj9Z_GztdUwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGlJpNV2TBIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hy3IaeqsUY
looks like a faggy reddit game. play some real shit you chumps
>>739022510Reminder that someone beat this ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''game'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' pressing the controller 150 times, and at some point the controller disconnected itself to save battery this happens when you're AFK for over 15 min.
>>739035027Yeah I watched that video. Pretty good. He's was being generous at times with some of the buttons, too.
>>739035027>150 A pressesRookie numbers. We can get that number down.

>>739022510One of the main things that people miss so much about the pre-2010s is that things weren't so fucking gay and feminized. You'd walk outside and every tenth person that you came across would be wearing Stone Cold Steve Austin or NWO t-shirt. Most media was unapologetically targeted at the demographic that's naturally most excited for media: men. Schools and workplaces were ran by normal people with children.The left has to rewrite the 80s and 90s just like they have pretend like your grandpa couldn't afford a house on a Safeway butcher's income. They can't have you realizing how much better life would be if they were removed from power and boomerism (blank slate liberalism, the "social safety net", etc.) was recognized as the biggest mistake in the history of the west.
A real '90s game would have this type of music in ithttps://youtu.be/Ps0MfBG5-Uo?si=rIkGpdJ8paVDjvYu
>>739035113sounds like a chalenge, or the new meta for this shit
>>739022510Did everyone get bored of marathon posting now
Where is the cutoff for growing up in the 90's anyway?'94 oldman and I don't consider myself a 90's kid at all.
soilenniels can't handle not being the main characters anymore kek
>>739035331I agree, booomerism was never a mistake, the mistake was to let the loonies run the assylum
>>739035472>90s music game>not a single Primus trackhorriblehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOdo7dhvSwg
I read the dev is an Aussie. Does that mean it takes place in Australia or is it literally a zoomie Aussie writing fan fiction about a time and place he's never experienced?
>>739022510Australian tax payers paid for this fake ass "American" game to get made. Underage tongue kissing and all
I dont know a single shit about mixtape but I guess its superficially 90s with anachronistic shit like gender faggotry and modern gaming mechanics, if gaming mechanics at all.
>>739022958what main audience
>>739035689Not just Australian but (((melbournites)))
>>739035113And I know just the guy for the jobBut first we'll need to talk about Parallel Universes
>>739023579if you dare to skip big tunes billy you dont know shit about the 90s
>>739022510>Game wasnt made for you.>It was made for people my age!Sorry, when I was growing up in the 90's, I wasnt from a well to do family who loved me and was so mad at the fact I was loved I had to become a hunk of fucking shit to "find myself"Its not made for me either, I got a job to work when I was in highschool because I wanted money.
>>739035586Normally it refers to when you were a teenager as that's where a lot of your growing and experiencing the world comes from. So your general cutoff point would be something like 1985
>>739024489You didnt experience the 90s if you were a baby then, you fucking retard. They are writing teenager 90s shit, they should have been born in the 80s. Early 80s.
>>739035751it doesnt have any of that at all
>>739022510Silence Fed.
>>739035689The latter.A Melbournite that has never lived in America and was born in the 90s meaning he never experienced the 90s as a teen writing fanfiction about an era he never lived in and has only experienced vicariously through the likes of shitty hollywood movies and netflix shows
>>739035947Correct, it doesn't have any game mechanics
>>739036026Also not gay or woke.
>>739025165outer wilds is from the same publisher that you antisemites seethe at but don't tell /v/ (or the sharty where you guys crawled out from)
>>739022958Because millennials are making things now
>>739036136The fag who made it wasn't even alive in the 90s.
>>739035113>Mixtape low input runI would watch that.
>>7390232955 of those bands are from the 2000s, larping zoomer
>>739032546Where the hell did you live? There was always some dumb high school senior trying to burn my hometown down around graduation time every year.
Ok, lets make the perfect 90s gameOST>if early 90s grunge, nin>if late 90s manson, numetal and some rockpop bands like garbage/nodoubt/placeboMECHANICSIts an arcade beat em up with some fg mechanics thrown inEvery character uses the word nigger, its 160iq and has access to a playboy supermodel gf, like the average teenager had during those days in the 90s. Its an inside joke that life literally couldnt be better than this and future generations must be shit if the world had already peaked. In fact, they beat toddlers for being gen z losers.Trivia about the 90s that you gen zion dont know: Matrix, the best movie of the 90s, was released in 1999, signaling the peak and ending of white civilization. The movie even says the matrix was based on the best era of all mankind. The awful sequels were released in the 00s. The directors went the extra mile to portray the 90s as the peak of civilization that they not only made 2 shit sequels, they also trooned out, to signal the times to come.
>>739036049Yet still a pile of shit
>>739036412There is absolutely no way I would want to listen to those OSTs over what we actually got.
>>739034948The whole album is greathttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YMbWHLsN39Y
>90s game>Looks inside>NO 90s music, not even fucking grunge or some shit>Not even a single moment where they go to the arcade >Dressed completely different from actual 90's kids>Talks different too
>>739022958>>739036136If it's made for millennials, then why are they always telling people who grew up with 90s and 00s media that it's not for them?The truth is that everybody knows that if a westerner actually makes what people want, the entire institutional machine is going to dogpile him. And the reason why this is effective is because we have a 50% tax rate that's used to insulate the intuitions from the free market and you effectively have to obey them if you want to participate in the economy. We need to organize. We need politicians who will drop the taxes down to a 5% flat tax and who prefer giving contracts to normal good-natured Americans and we need judges and prosecutors who's natural inclination is to throw the book at Larry Fink. That's the only thing that can save our culture.>Think of all of the jobs that are going to be lost without perpetual bailouts!Yeah, it's terrible that you hired people who aren't qualified to run your company. Guess that'll have to stop now, huh?
>>739036668>Lush>Portishead>Not 90s>Silverchair>Not grunge>Implying
Made by a zoomed who didn't grow up in the 90s
>>739022510>love letter for millenials>main character is an ugly female
>>739034948In the 90s my favorite band was The Melvinshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqrBg5RviyEI still do like them.
>>739036231actually that faggot is in his thirties right now so he was a child in the 90s
>>739022510As someone from the 90s I can tell you that the devs and reviewers did not know what real 90s culture was. The lack of grunge, gangsta rap, trash tv, wrestling and XTREME shit makes it feel so un90s it's crazy. If this was a real 90s kids game you would have a group of dudes throwing eggs and shooting at random people with paint balls. Calling each other faggots and homos. Looking up the skirt of random girls at school and a lot of XTREME shit. Look at Jerry Springer, ECW to get a better idea of what the 90s was.
>>739022510I grew up in the 90s and it was cringe.
>>739036705You cannot save a broken system from with in it. And you cannot organize to save it from outside of it without looking like you glow. Thus the only actual thing is to watch shit burn until people no longer care if shit glows.
Mixtape's pushback is proof that the pendulum is swinging back and people are tired of right wing conservative culture.
>>739033874For me, it was Jelly.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjJi3bjP6U4Her stream popped up in my feed so I said fuck it, I joined during the last hour of her stream and holy shit, this is by far one of the most pretentious piece of media I have ever seen. She refunded it after the baseball flashback.
>>739036861> If this was a real 90s kids game you would have a group of dudes throwing eggs and shooting at random people with paint balls.That's in the game.
>>739036812>ferris chadler>some gen z gets a panic attack by just thinking about how dominant and based Ferris was>stops the movie, tries another Hughes kino>starts crying when the goth girl was made into an even cuter trad girlWhy does John Hughes trigger so much these people?
>>739036963>right wing conservative culture.examples?
>>739037101The whole game is white culture and nobody likes it. Nobody is gay, everything is white, there's respect for the cops. It's awful
>>739034948https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epj84QVw2rc
>>739037101Ugh, like seriously? White people. Duh? The game doesn't even have a bi intersectional transbian colored person.
>>739036963It didnt even start lmao. What conservative culture was released? ben shaphiro movies? We are still in peak woke. Gunn is still failing. Mortal Kombat 2 exists. The boys still aroundRight wing shit will start once paramount acquires wb.
>>739037051>trigger so much these peopleWhat genre of ESL is this? French?
>>739037195Melania movie
>>739037008Nope. They used Toilet Paper. Nobody really used TP because that shit is bulky as fuck and it's expensive. Eggs are so much better. It was super cheap back then. You can carry a ton of em on a backpack. Plus if you hit someone with em it was sweet. TP is more of a movie thing because it's more cinematic. But don't get it twisted. The boys used eggs. Sometimes we even made stink eggs to make it even better.
>>739036963Yeah no I'd still rather live in this game's universe than trannytopia.
>>739037195Look up who's responsible for Paramount buying WB. It's Larry Ellison the same billionaire who's close buddies with Trump and funded this shit like Mixtape. They're trying to buy up every form of entertainment out there like tiktok, WB and video games in order to brainwash people into their right wing cult.
>>739022510nigger please....
>>739037389TP was used when you wanted to be a real dick because it's an enormous pain the ass to clean up. Eggs can be cleaned by hosing down your house. You can't hose down TP.
>>739037670You are fucking delusional if you think jews are right anything.

>>739037720Look up who the jews put as president and how much that president is worshipping israel. You'd see
>>739034948I'd rather just post mainstream shit because nobody would like my music.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qORYO0atB6ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_PAHbqq-o4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmin5WkOuPwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xat1GVnl8-khttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jat3HdbWMw4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ez0Z3aGSQchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aeETEoNfOghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ao-Sahfy7Hghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlVQySSAg00
>>739037841You mean literally every president since the civil war? >b-but some of those were republicansDon't care. You can't be right wing and not think every jew should die. Party is meaningless, what matters is ideology.
>>739037903Wait was Smashing Pumpkins included already in Mixtape? i thought that might be an obvious one. I just didn't check.
>>739036904It's a MASSIVE assumption to believe that they'll find their spines and will blame the correct people. This assumption isn't always supported by history. There are still old people who want the Soviet Union back.It's the most obvious statement in the world, but a lot of people on the right need to hear it: You win by winning. If a city votes out the tough-on-crime politicians and turns into a food desert as a result, that's not a victory. If your favorite studio goes woke and then implodes, that's not a victory. Victory is when the tough-on-crime politicians get back in and give the criminals the chair so that the city can rebuild, and victory is when a studio that caters to you makes the big bucks and gears up to make more. And when the world sees what they can have if they do things your way, the victories will pile up.
>>739022510Is this the astroturfed looney troon visual novel slop that got funding from a nepobaby daughter of the fucking founder of Oracle who is a billionaire, with marketing everywhere funded by the billions, trying to present itself as some indie project "for the people" grasping for poorly made nostalgia baiting; and to put the cherry on top a rebranded dev team because the original devs who made Stray were underpaid and driven out by the publishing company while this shit ironically gets millions of astroturf money; on top of the dev being a nepo baby son of a richfag who got big brand music tours set up for him?
So is the next stage of damage control trying to drown out criticism of the game with fedposting and schizos ranting about jews?
>>739037982Yes.
I like how people are whining it's not real 90s music when most of it is, it's just one step removed from the mainstream, if even that with The Cure and Smashing Pumpkins and Silverchair on the OST, and you faggots couldn't even take that step. Fucking amerifarts.
>>739037994The problem is the people you would want to be let in to run things never will be. And so things will only get worse until things get bad enough to hit a breaking point. That won't be fun for anyone when it does, but it will happen at some point. It's simply a matter of time. When that time is I cannot say, but it will happen.
>>739022958it's not aimed at millennials, it's aimed for gen alpha who have no culture. it romanticizes the 90's for them
>>739037947Must suck to be a what the jews call "goyim" because you're brainwashed to support the only side that pushes nonstop jewish politics which is the entire ring wing movement.
>>739022510why can't modern devs accept their game not being loved by everyone? why do people assume that just because they dedicate X amount of time to a project they are owed positive recognition and financial reward?
>>739038285>gen alphaZoomers. They are called zoomers.
>>739038054stray is also funded by the same troon nebobaby billionaire, it's all shit.
>>739038304Weren't you the same people who were calling everything 'nazi' about thirty seconds ago?
All this talk about the game not being period accurate, yet somehow none of it is levied at the many many many games set in medieval times.
>>739038304Must suck to be stupid enough to think either "side" of the establishment doesn't answer to the exact same masters.
>>739038280>MC is a music snob>pick songs that arent mainstream slop>AHHH WHERE IS MY MAINSTREAM SLOP THIS ISNT THE 90slmao people who shit on the game are obviously zoomers
>>739038314That's not a modern dev thing. It's just you now know how devs have always felt due to social media and activist journalism being a thing.
>>739038408You say this when the left is the only side that's openly proposing solutions to drive out the jews forever while the right is obsessed with protecting them.
>>739038407No one alive today was around back then for one.
>>739038407I see plenty of "Akshually Joan of Arc wasn't a black transgender muslim" articles whenever those kind of games come out.
>>739038314You say this when they havent said anything to react to the hate the game is setting.
>>739038412>>pick songs that arent mainstream slopHuh?The majority of the soundtrack IS mainstream music. The biggest problem with the soundtrack is a lot of it is mainstream music for the parents of 90s kids, not 90s kids themselves. Not many 90s kids were listening to Devo and Roxy Music.
>>739022806Stranger Things is actually amazing and actively underrated at this point because people put way too much weight on the shitty later seasons that don't matter.
>>739038453There isn't a single establishment politician on either side that will do jack shit about the jewish question. Not while the boomers are in charge. And among the general public and youth both sides actually hate them, but that doesn't matter because neither has any power.
>>739038453You think overtly unironically agitating for a jewish genocide is a winning argument? Even on 4chan?
>>739023243>Nobody actually played thisbecause the number of inputs needed to proceed through the entire game is in the single digits, it may as well be a movie lmao
>>739038492This is exactly what people who were slightly into alt music listened to in the 90s. Exactly.
>>739038557Well feel free to defend your jewish masters, I'm sure they'll call you a good goy then. Meanwhile the plan to destroy the jews are already in motion in europe and australia, opening the border to wipe out and eliminate the jew menace and their white goyslaves.
>we must let in tens of millions of muslims because it's the only way to wipe out the jewsI swear left wing psyops are getting more and more retarded every year.
>>739038656Enjoy being stoned to death by muzzies for being a faggot I guess? More power to you.
>>739038608No. The soundtrack is all over the place. No 90s kid had Stan Bush on their mixtape alongside The Offspring or something. Nobody really did "ironic fan" shit back then.
>>739038957Yes.
>>739038281Again, you're assuming that they'll be clamoring for YOU. Maybe what we'll get instead will be a slave society where communists force you to plow the field under threat of violence. Or maybe they'll just continue caving to this workaround for communism that they've been building. Or maybe we'll already be over the tipping point by the time people have had enough. And in the meantime, you've got a lot of unnecessary suffering. This is why I've never agreed with accelerationism.The way that you actually move the needle is to pound the pavement, organize, and take ground. Take over a municipality, pass laws that they said couldn't be passed, release a successful product, show that you're viable and that you get results. That's how you get them to clamor for you.
>>739039146Samefag here. Just think about this logically. If the world were collapsing around you, would you look to the people who cowered in the shadows while it happened? Of course not, they're losers.
>>739022510
>>739039146I'm not advocating for accelerationism, I'm simply stating how things will go. I'd certainly prefer to wave a wand and have everything fixed with good and just leaders running the show. But that's unrealistic. By design, it's incredibly difficult for those who aren't part of the existing structure to even get in, much less affect meaningful change.

>>739040532>leftist pretends not to understand the discussion
>>739022510Bueller’s Day Off is a better representation of the 90s than Mixtape and that movie came out in ‘86.
So what we have now, shilling tactics in right order:>no gameplay? whocars ur supposed to enjoy it!>dood play it for muh nostalgia>erm don't you like pro-trump multibillionaires??>ackschully the game promotes right wing conservative culture
>>739041001That's because nothing much changed mid 80s through to early 90s. It was all mid to late 90s when the 90s started to actually feel like a different era which bled through to early 2000s.
>>739022510If you want to play a game that feels like being a kid in the 90s, play Bully. It's obviously a caricature and most people don't go to boarding schools, but the drama, what people talked about, and the atmosphere are spot on.The game industry used to make things that non-crazy people could relate to.
