>Indie game, but with licenced songs>minigames you are incapable of losing>no video games posters inside characters rooms>director is daughter of one of the richest man on earth>no one is talking and behaving like person from 90's
chuds lost, Mixtape is a stunning success
>>739042392>incapable of losingI guess chuds are just so used to being losers irl that it feels wrong when they win
Ive only heard about this game because of 4chan
>>739042392chud game, do not like
>There's a talky talky game that's not made for me, this is unacceptableI don't get the outrage. Just don't play it. The people trying to make it into Gone Home 2 just gave it more players
>>739042392>if I lie and spread misinformation enough, people will believe meAmazing how gamers are all against this trump right wing funded slop.
>>739042621the game is le industry plant masquerading as a indie game, that alone should make you despise it
yeah i mean this case has been cracked wide open as of what, 1-2 weeks ago? not much else to say. the popular take is to (rightfully) shit on it so people on here are just going to pretend to like it
The soundtrack alone is all the confirmation you need this is an industry plant.A Prey 2006 developer, in regards to their use of "(Don't) Fear The Reaper", recently came out and said licensing today costs anywhere between $150K to 200K per song, which is why you never see licensed songs used anymore outside of like trailers. The old cost in the mid-2000s was around $10K per song.Mixtape has 28 licensed songs, and not only is its licensed song list far and above anything short of Forza Horizon or Grand Theft Auto, the songs have been paid so their licensing is perpetual. Not even Microsoft or Rockstar can afford to do this, and the games have to enter lengthy legal re-agreements, be de-listed from stores and never be sold again, or cut the songs entirely.
>>739042437Why is no one talking about this? This sits at comfy 87% right now.Clearly someone is having a blast.What does this tell us? That with enough bought reviews and OK visuals one can fake a successful game?
>>739042392>>director is daughter of one of the richest man on earthactually, she's the producer, the director is some failed aussie musician
>>739042794(You) helped by crying about it the past two weeks
>>739042794>fake status as an indie game>pay reviewers to give it fake praise>use puppet steam accounts to give it a high review scoreit's literally a fake game made for nobody played by nobody.
I've played this about halfway through, it's just so boring, a few visually interesting parts don't make up for how this game has so little to say while trying so hard
>>739042843>use puppet steam accounts to give it a high review scoreThis is entirely plausible, hence it should be trivial to show at least some indirect evidence for this claim. Voices in your head don't count.
>>739043002nigganon aint nobody biting your bait
No one cares about this game except ragebait content creators, paid indian shills on /v/, and nepobaby jews. It's worse than Concord and Dustborn since at least those games have things to talk about. Mixtape is a literal nothingburger.
>>739043023Name one known case of Steam puppet accounts being used to manipulate scores/player count at scale. I am no longer asking.
Well?
>>739043147Wukong
>>739042392Seeing this game shilled everywhere turned players from indifference to poorly receiving it lol.Might as well just play Subnautica 2
>>739042843Yeah the game is funded by a literal billionaire daughter with their typical progressive messaging. Usually any games that are good would stand by its own merit, and if it is actually good over time it will get a cult following. If it does not, you know it, we know it, it's an industry plant.
>indie game>backed buy government grant money, access media and multi billion dollar corporations You use these words but do you know what they mean?
>>739043923Mixtape already has a cult following though
>>739043982Sorry but Expedition 33 proved that you can still be an indie game with government grant money, access media and multi billion dollar corporations behind it. Also funded by billionaires.
>no gameplay? whocares ur supposed to simply enjoy it!>dood play it for muh nostalgia trust me bro>erm pro-trump multibillionaires??>ackschully game promotes right wing white conservative culture chud!*YOU ARE HERE*>
>>739042392>>director is daughter of one of the richest man on earth Dumbass can't get basic facts straight. Also weird that nobody gave a shit about her until now.
>>739043147far-right nazis review bombed slay the spire 2.
Mixtape isn't an indie game.
>>739042437but i did nothing
>Game set in the 90's>Wireless headphones>Everyone talks and acts like zoomers
>>739044292it's not even a game
>>739044037Is there a reason why leftist woke games try so hard to be inside the indie, smol humble developer box?
>>739042392>Subversive trust fund commie bullshit masquerading as a "video game"
>>739044409Worse, it's right wing conservative cult shit. It's no surprise everyone is rejecting it, people naturally hate white people and their stupid trust fund pet projects.
>>739042392>>no one is talking and behaving like person from 90'sThis was jarring>No one's calling each other fag or gay as a source of endearment>No one calling the black people nigger (millennials will gaslight you about this but it was extremely prevalent)>No mentions of wrestling or video games>Skateboarding which wasn't overly prominent in the states until 2001>Cops aren't chill as fuck
this is the first time I'm engaging with these threads and it will be the lastI just want to call you all stupid, easily manipulated fags and I suggest to you all that you should kill yourselves
Is this some kind of psyop?>Hey for our marketing we should totally get the 4chuds to hate the game that'll make it another Gone Home!No one cares about this game here, barely even mad about it
Is it true that 10 million dollars isn't a lot of money?
Sounds more like A Night in the Woods aka a game made for Midwest people who grew up in the mid 2000s who pine for the 90s despite not growing up then. It's very strange. When they got the mechanics of cassette tapes wrong it was clear they didn't live in these times.
>>739042392If all the mRNA vaxed die soon, the world can finally heal.
>>739043820this can easily be checked and it's true>thousands of steam accounts with 1 game owned and it's wukong>all china-babble names or location set to chinese enclaves like canada>hundreds of guides in the community hub that are essay-tier explanations of chinese mythology>discussion hub is 99% chinese>game is actually mid as fuck and carried by the graphics
>>739042843>played by nobodyThere are almost 500 people who are having a blast right now!
>>739043998It doesn't even have a subreddit. Where is this supposed cult following assembling?
>>739042392Does anyone know why certain people are trying to portray the 90s as 2010s hipster shit?
>>739044652>6 years later>still no mass vaccine die-offNot like this migabros...
>>739042843Its on game pass.Chances are anyone like me who wants to try the game will just pay 10$ to play it on game pass.Its like 3 hours long and forza 6 is also coming out on game pass soon anyway so il probably play ti today.
>>739042392This ain't an indie gameEven without the licenses which cost a fortune, and looking past the vapid content, the production values are pro-tier, senior devs, competent visuals and sound, etc.
>>739042787>between $150K to 200K per song>just need to write some songs and suddenly fags have to pay you 150k just to put it in their game for like 1 or 2 years, then they have to pay you again if they want to keep using the songsWhy is this allowed?
>>739044479>right wing conservative cult shitLying cunt
>>739046006See, the hurdle is people need to actually like and want your songs.https://youtu.be/GJNwkJL7-fE?si=6TDVBCzX-XKGUTyN
>>739045163That's well poisoning. I got the vax & I can say it was not a wise choice after learning about the spike protein stuff.It can put you at risk for complications down the road if you have certain impairments.
>>739046467Schizo retard
>>739046006because copyright law is bullshit?and the same leftists who want to "eat the rich" are perfectly fine with these values, because art n'shiet.
>>739046995Ah yes, those leftists that are totally known for going to bat for corporations.
>>739044950All you need to do is look up who funded the game, Larry Ellison and his family are close friends with the Trump administration and they've been using their money to buy up tiktok, warner bros and fund games to push their right wing propaganda onto people.
baiting used to be a respected profession
>the culture war fighters have gotten wind of government grantsSo much of our industry disappeared once the government stopped propping it up, you can get grants for all sorts of shit for the sole reason of "holy fuck please make something here we produce nothing".
>>739044782You've listed 0 evidence of puppet accounts. You've described a Chinese game that successfully catered to Chinese. Try again?
>>739042392What's even considered an indie game today?It started with solo projects and garage teams with like 3 dudes, but every retard bundled together needing definitions we ended up with 70 million dollar 100+ people production teams while still be indie.Buly the same definition Nintendo games are indie since they self-publish.
>>739047767an indie game is if they call themselves an indie game, it's the simplest explanation.
>>739044782I don't know anything about it, but wasn't Wukong some cultural heritage thing for China? Makes sense tons of Chinese would buy it, no? I thought it was some legendary figure everybody over there knew about or something. Sort of like a new Michael Jackson game for Americans.
>>739044782>chinese made game featuring chinese cultural thing attracts the chineseWow.
>>739048017>>739047631>wumaos
>>739048156Like I said, I don't know anything about it and never played it. Thought I saw a article about how monkeyman was some sort of mythical figure to our Eastern friends.
>>739048246wukong was a book written in the 1500s but chinks are so barbaric and medieval compared to white nations, that is equivalent to a 2000BC biblical text for us. it is not actually an ancient mythical text
>>739042392Some youtuber said it has no gameplay whatsoever. No, pushing a button once in a while without it even affecting anything isn't gameplay. Why is it marketed and sold as a game then? How is this legal? Scams like this should be punishable by death.
>>739050732Visual novels are on steam, we should ban them too.
I liked it a lot. It was refreshing to play someone who is as much of a cunt as Stacey
>>739042437>Mixtape is a stunning success
>>739042437But this is a chud game tho?
>E33 funded by millionaire dad>Mixtape funded by billionaire dadso this is the power of indie devs...not bad....
>>739048156I've asked for evidence. I didn't ask you to get mad.
>>739044179yeah isnt it weird how nobody gave a shit about microplastics until this decade and nobody cared about lead paint in the 50’s? Something fishy going on here with these chuds.
>>739044314well zoomers really did base 90% of their culture off a subset of millennials (and then pretend they created it) so that checks out.
>>739044507>>No one calling the black people nigger (millennials will gaslight you about this but it was extremely prevalent)nah that is not true, nobody said this shit IRL.>Skateboarding which wasn't overly prominent in the states until 2001x games was huge in the states in the mid 90s
>>739051402At least E33 is a video game.
>>739044952there is a thin line, the indie scene started in the early 2000s and it came from somewhere (the 90s). But I would still expect a nostalgia bait “time capsule from the 90s” to be a little more accurate on that.
