>Hey here's a cool game with super-optimised coding and insane graphics and a billion effects on screen>Oh but you don't get to have fun just killing enemies and mastering their patterns and the platforming>Instead you have to wander around mazes with a time limit>Everything has extremely limited ammo too>Just the act of moving also consumes fuel btwWhy was every European game like this apart from Tetris, GTA and Rareware stuff?
The one time they made a game that was honest fun, it got banned.
Much like the mountain, only Whites will understand the call of the maze.
Whenever I roll something European it always isn't as bad as shitposting says, but people afraid of timers tend to be hyperbolic. Tends to be more fun than whatever American stuff I get, but that includes early computers which invites the landfill of American media called edutainment so that's on me.
Very few Europeans understood game design. Americans at least had a niche with simulation focused autism, Euroslop was always some bizarre and terrible cargo cult attempt at Japanese games.

>game is a generic platformer with garish level design and the ugliest and most repulsive characters everyep, it's European
>>12536145Add flipscreen and this describes the American platformers I've played as well.Personally I think the problem is anglo blood, shit's cursed. Best stick anyone with a drop of it on simulators and Ultima/wizardry clones.
>>12536089It's simple - fragmented market. You, burgers, have no idea how fucking easier it is to live in a country with 300 million population. Because of this huge market you have giant corporations. In Europe it was a meat grinder. You couldn't invest as much time and effort to develop a product - the company would fold. And if it picks up in let's say France, there's no guarantee that Italians or Germans will like it.
Divine divinty is the ultimate euro jank kinoIt's final act is 10 mins and unfinished and the most bizzare balancing where they give you God spells but make every enemy almost immune to magic.It crashes and barely worksIt just grabs a bunch of stuff from other games like ultima Dick around interactions, diablo loot, baulders gate big city side quest RPG.It's voice acting is hilariously badIt has really out of place humorBut fuck it's so much fun and full of love like I know the developer just wanted me to have fun when I play it
Why did bongs of the /vr/ era keep making racing games that are so hard?
>>12536089>wander around mazes with a time limittime limits are kino
>>12536089Because the youtube told you soAlso, because eurotrash are trash

why are americans so angry
>>12537901It's trying to be educational. You build car with ridiculous shit, so you have to go to the fuel station a lot more and your spoilers fall off if you drive over bumps and aren't careful.
>>12536089many yuro games were made by lone turboautists rather than studios. oftentimes the only playtesting they got were by the dev themselves. which means the games difficulty was gonna be set by a singular turboautist who literally made the entire game and knows everything about it. so from a blind player PoV, itll be nigh impossiblethe games feel amateurish from a design standpoint because they mostly literally WERE amateur developers>but the games in "x" cunt were way betterok, but a couple things:yuro scene was microcomputer oriented because they were affordable and the games were dirt cheap or even free, while consoles sometimes werent. and depending on the system and/or region, you might not get the console at all, or youll only have a shit knockoff you can even buy in your cuntmaybe more important tho is the language barrier. yuros are more likely to know multiple languages, for obvious reasons, but that doesnt mean they all knew english or japanese or whatever back in the 80s. a kraut might know german and french, and maybe a tiny bit of english or somethin. so that means most of the media youre gonna be made aware of is the stuff available in those regions/languagesfinally, theres the "write what you know"/chain-reaction aspect, which ties into the prior pointssay youre that same kraut. you play some french autists shitty platformer. its kinda cool and the gfx/music are nice, but its also kinda shit. so you close out of the game, youre already on your computer, so you try to make a better one. and then you test it yourself, and inevitably make it wayyyyyy too fucking hard. then some french autist who knows a lil german plays it, and the cycle repeats back the other wayso you end up with a rly lively scene of amateur devs making piles and piles of shitty games, but also learning. such that by the end of the 80s, many of the talented guys got jobs working for bigger studios
