I am getting very strong Pokemon Quartz vibes from this. Horrifically bad Engrish and lots of creepy sexual poo poo. And there needs to be a trigger warning for trashing flowers! The horror! Torturing animals is fine, but not the flowers!

Adding to the general but also can we just talk about this cow? I'm fairly sure that if you ever see a fully grown cow stretched out on its side, trying to eat or not, it's dying. Also that's some weird-rear end spriting.

Too long for a thread title, booo. Happy Mask Salesman is the most realistic thing I've seen all game. Fed up retail worker no longer even pretending to smile at the eleven millionth customer to claim they can't afford something and just flatly telling them to gently caress off and get more money. As for the rest of this clusterfuck, I think it's actually a rare moment of self awareness on the part of the creator. By this point clearly anyone playing wants to set fire to the entire game, so why not gate various rewards behind indiscriminate arson?

DimiPZC posted:It's mostly that once you remove all the most questionable poo poo, you're left with boring mediocrity at best. I'd rather be offended by a game than be bored by it, in my opinion, cause boredom is the worst feeling one can have. The DX version doesn't top the original as a trainwreck, sadly That's what we all used to think before Pokemon Reborn. Turns out there is very definitely an upper limit that's much, much worse than being bored. This mess calling itself a game can only dream of reaching those lofty heights.

Well. Everything in this update was a giant pile of what the loving gently caress. I started quoting bits to respond to and then realised I was quoting almost the entire thing and most of my responses were pretty similar. I have a headache just reading this, I can't even begin to imagine playing it. You poor, poor soul.

I'm going to echo everyone else in asking 'why?' But more specifically, what is the reason for this game being made? Most fangames are obvious, either someone wants to add gameplay to their fanfiction, or they think the canon games are easy baby games for babies and want to make it ludicrously difficult so they can smug at anyone who complains. And then there's this. You'd think it was the fanfic option, except the 'story' is so barebones I barely remember the protagonists' names and there's no actual explanation for anything. There is no story being told here, not even a really bad one. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to be spared the endless lengthy cutscenes of dialogue between an author's pet NPCs exploring their deepest emotions and life stories, but the story isn't the motive for this game existing. And this isn't difficult, in the conventional sense of the word (I hope this makes sense, I don't meant to imply that playing it isn't insanely hard, OP is doing a great job), just immensely annoying. Regular enemies are pointlessly overpowered but the bosses are cheesable and there's no actual puzzle beyond endless variations on 'is this particular block bomb/fire/Todd Howard' and 'I literally can't see where to walk'. Every single step is the kind of thing regular bad games use as padding to increase a dungeon's length, but there's nothing here to pad. If anything this seems like someone just messing around with Zelda Classic to see what weird and wacky things they can make the engine do, then on a whim cramming it all together and scribbling a few lines of dialogue to make it seem like it's meant to be a game before tossing it into the void.

Myra: I can has lolcat? The Kokiri Forest doesn't seem so bad. I should have realised it was just lulling you into a false sense of security before throwing the Lost Woods at you. As for that string of wtf at the end from Knil, clearly the writer suddenly realised they hadn't had any ridiculous sexism for a while and had to throw in that completely pointless aside before they got withdrawal symptoms.

So is there any point to any of that area, other than to gently caress with the player?

Ballad of a Bloodline: WATER!!! *splash* I'm also honestly surprised we don't have a :gamedesign: emote, it does seem to come up every time anyone touches a fangame on here. Dynamo might actually have been funny, had the creators understood the difference between annoying the player and brutally loving the player over.

Surprised it took this long to really break the game, honestly. And okay cool, random r-slur, real nice. (gently caress whoever wrote this with a cactus).
