ITT: (((Critically acclaimed))) games that are instantly forgotten.
>>741376392This wasn't acclaimed lol, it was an acceptable doom clone with a heckin comfort artstyle.
>>741376392I played it for an hour then dropped it. It's really shit.
>>741376392Mass Effect
Anything released this year
you know a games combat is weightless shit when they feel the need to lean on hit markers
>>741376540Not a shit game. I mean I know shit games. It is a mid game. It is playable if you can ignore the communist-leaning story.
hot take: unless you're the cuphead creator, rubberhose style fucking sucks balls and isn't even a style worth nostalgia
>>741376731I was quite literally just about to post this exact image. They shilled the fuck out of this slop here during launch week.
>>741376392stealth shill threadnobody, ironically or unironically called this game "critically acclaimed".This isn't even funny as a bait.The only purpose of this thread is to bring attention to this because nobody talks about it anymore (and rightfully so)
>>741376392it felt uninspired>looks guys it's doom but with mickey mouse, it's that amazing?
>>741376392any switch game
>>741376470>>741377003it's a bioshock infinite clone
haha
>>741377127two separate screenshots stitched together to make it seem that the trump haircut mouse said itMost pathetic attempt at manipulation I've ever seen
Despite winning a GOTY, almost no one played it, and literally nobody cares about it today.
>>741376392>Hey, you know Cuphead?>What if we took its artstyle... and added tweening?
>>741376775unironicaly, it's highly overrated, and nobody alive today can even be nostalgic about it
>>741377228no it's not, the trump mouse says it in game
DUDE TRIPLE PARENTHESIS LMAOAM I ARYAN YET?????
>>741377273Plus remove all the color.
It's the Cuphead equivalent of Focus M. Not to say that the gameplay is terrible, but you can feel the corporate astroturfing as you play.
>>741376775Rubberhose style in the sense of modern day faux-rubberhose you see everywhere? Sure. Authentic 20's/30's rubberhose? Fuck no. Cuphead looks so good because it's the latter and they have a deep appreciation for the art. Most others are the former and just slap gloves and pie eyes onto everything to make it look like le old cartoon
>>741377241It makes sense. Most people who would play it don't own a PS5, and those who do own a PS5 are just a bunch of golems who prefer hyperrealistic AAA slop and soulless thirdies who only play FIFA, CoD and Fortnite. I wish I could play it.
>>741377127is that a Nort armband?
>>741377241People only care about it for shitposting purposes these days
>>741377241>there was a time when people were calling this a Mario killer
>>741376392
>>741376981You know, I memory holed this. Absolutely astounding
>>741376731This
>>741377820I always felt like rouge trooper would fit as a far cry 2 like game
>>741377890has a mario game been released since it came out?
>>741378072it's so /k
>>741377241Why do nintendo fans get so schizo and angry when a non mario platformer and gets well received even when it's on the same platform as mario.
>>741376392>be a fake indie game>be pushed by a multi million dollar publisher>with links to activision>access media suck your dick to retain access pass>game is literally trash worse than most gzdoom custom wads>no one cares once the marketing money runs outmany such cases
>>741378427>15 reviewsReally, nigger?I thought it was pretty good
>>741378427sex with rolo
>>741377241>remember people saying it was a more polished than Mario galaxy>it is a lamer version of Mario 3D world, dragged down by the art direction being "PS5!!"It's OK i guess, but even the last Sackboy and Crash 4 had more going for it. I guess it impressed the target audience who only plays over the shoulder camera cinematic games and don't know that indies exist, people who would go "OMG they literally RESURRECTED this genre i stopped checking on since i was a child"The sequel will most likely be better if they allow the team to experiment more
Another pseudo-indie game.
>>741376392Even Troy Baker couldn't save this one
>>741378609you mean adult rolo right
literally every game released this year. everything has been artificially shilled to levels not seen since Borderlands 2>Mina>RE9>Mewgenics>0067>pragmata>Mixtape>Bananza>Kirby Air ride>MarathonALL, and I mean ALL, forgotten. nobody is discussing any of these titles
>>741379283No.
>>741376392PUNCH A NAZI to rescue DA SHROOS simulator 2026!!!
>>741379552>The one game that isn't a singleplayer experience has had a daily thread on /v/ laughing at it and its dogshit studioUtter lack of pattern recognition... must be a brownie.
>>741376981Absolute definitive proof the awards are rigged
>>741377981looks bullishgoing to put down 200,000€ on this and when it inevitably moons I'll be rich
>>741378313I loved rogue trooper
>>741376392People only praised this game just to shit on the IGN review>>741376981fun fact, it has the same publisher as Stray (won that award in 2022), Neon White (also nominated for the same award), and Mixtape (going rig this year's award)
>>741379184>in the 90s we were all rich arthouse fags
>>741379706>americanyou are the only brown one here sanchez
>>741380142It was also made by the guy who did Limbo and Inside so it shouldn't have been in the debut category in the first place.
I find it curious: what makes one game stand the test of time while others don't? I think it's impossible to answer.One thing I've noticed from my own experience making little games with RPG Maker and Ren'py is that authentic characters tend to resonate much more with the audience.This is a huge problem that corporate products face, because they're always walking on eggshells, and a character who says something like, "Get lost, I don't like faggots!" or something like that is completely off-limits unless it's all carefully crafted to denounce homophobia or something similar... and even then, it backfires because people simply love authentic characters.
>>741379582
>>741376981Wasn't even bad
>>741378159How could you forget about the Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 combo pack released in 2025.
>>741381136the state of mario after astrobot is dire
>>741376392flavor of the week slop
>>741378473i think it's just the VGA GOTY thing that rubs everyone with more than two brain cells the wrong way. it's a great game but it's not some mind-blowing GOTY masterpiece.
>>741377291Except the millions who grew up on Boomerang and compilations on home media. Do you ever think before you type?
>>741376573Look, a retard
>>741376775More people need to watch Fleischer's work.
>>741381678Forgotten by me at least. Never even played it lel.
>>741376634Anything released this generation*
>>741376392IGN... perhaps I was too harsh on you
>>741376392boomer shooters aren't that popular as everyone thinks they outside of maybe ultrakill which isnt even a boomershooter but still gets the tag for one.
>>741376392This was one of those things that 3 of my friends said looked so cool and they were going to play it, but none of them did.
>>741379552>Mewgenicswe had threads about this one for months, you'll also be tired if you played 200 hours of it.
>>741377820The armband is probably a reference to The British Union of Fascists (BUF), which used the same logo as Norts from Rogue Trooper and the BMP from this game.Odd that a Polish dev studio would reference British fascists party
>>741376731movie game with no replay-ability
>>741378072just need to make Rebellion license out the IP along with Judge Dredd, ABC Warriors and others.
>>741379552>no you can't finish a single player game>you HAVE to make it your entire identity and talk about it non stop for the rest of your lifeI'm sick of seeing the opinions of browns and childrenplease stop posting
>>741377241We should've gotten LPB4
this shit was so boring and insufferable with the "hmm i think i should go there" writingone of the rare cases where ign was right
>>741376786After playing the game via fitgirl it made me realise that there really are paid shills that come here to promote games.What a boring hunk of shit filled with mundane activities and a fulled cast of magic negroes and other diversity garbage.
>>741386630The most Indian post in this thread.
>>741376392I literally forgot about this until just now lolIndie games need to stop relying on visual gimmicks. >inb4 it's not indieStill, you know what i mean.
>>741376775>multiple lame mickey/popeye ripoffs>not a single recent indie game ripping off the superior termite terrace style
>>741380631>I find it curious: what makes one game stand the test of time while others don't?the quality of the video game retard. hence why this game sucks and flopped and was forgotten immediately
>>741376731>Kill wh*te incel crackas to protect the diverse trans nonbinary black jewish folx the game
>>741376775Gay
>>741377241This game's entire identity is "Look at all of these franchises that we've abandoned!" It's probably not a bad game, but it has no character outside of Sony puppeteering the corpses of everything that built their success as a game company.
>>741377241It's by far the best game on the PS5, but not many people own a PS5.
I enjoy the style, gameplay is definition of “implement to get you from point a to b” the levels are nice. The shrews and big mouse party are the worst part of the story, eye rolling really. It’s not terribly offensive and good fun. Worth like 10 bucks on sale
>>741376392The fuck are you on about? Critics shit all over Mouse.
It's Punch a nazi simulator and it can't even decide between grimdark edgy story or goofy mouse cartoon.
this game is the literal epitome of "shilled for a week and then instantly forgotten"none of the threads discussing it felt organic when it coincided with popular streamers playing it out of sponsorship.the title and artstyle are so generic, i even suspected this was some fallen aces clone that was quickly made with ai generated assets. which is unfortunate, if this was actually someone's passion project.
It's still good
>>741377241It won GOTY so that it can distract people from Concord. That game launched in the same year as Concord, and Sony wanted a win.
>>741377241Astro Bot was actually good though. The only reason no one played it is because it's a PS5 exclusive.
>>741377915The fucking "Wokey Kong" shitposting and that Pauline 3 schizo have more of a legacy than this shitpile button masher game does here
>>741386630>After playing the game via fitgirl it made me realise that there really are paid shills that come here to promote games.Took you long enough
>>741379184Such a failure, it couldn't even generate porn.
>>741377241Solid 8/10. I wish they rereleased the vr game to psvr2 along with a flat version for those who are allergic to it.
>>741396973It did, but it wasn't enough to produce mass porn... https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=17590475Anons just weren't loud enough.
>>741376392It's an okay game.
>>741376392https://youtu.be/wQkGLVlZsEw?si=e9wTok_dG55oG7CF!!!FACT!!!
>>741394331I think it was because the game stopped being shilled so abruptly and now nobody talks about it. >>741376775I always found it a little sinister and unpleasant.
