Remind me again, why do people go insane over Bugsnax? Isn't it just some adventure game for kids? Why do people drool over it so much?
Yeah, Snatcher is best presented by someone who already knows the game, which is sadly slowbeef
It's actually not a bad game, but imo the writing and dialogue is just complete trash. The chat goes into a fit every time any of the characters are affectionate or caring with one another in any way and it's kind of irritating.
He also did a nice metal rendition of its theme by Kero Kero Bonito. A pinnacle of Joel humour.
You know damn well why, he's just worried of the avalanche of death threat emails he's gonna get for showcasing racist behavior on stream, despite most people not giving a shit
Pre-release, KKB's song and the speculation over it becoming a horror game underneath a cutesy exterior appealed to a lot of people. Then when the game came out, it turned out to have actual merit. The bugsnax themselves are a huge part of its popularity because of their design and voice work, basically like Pokemon, and the gameplay is genuinely good and somewhat unique. The graphics certainly don't scream next gen, but they're bright and colorful which helps it stand out from the usual.
You know that Japanese people can discriminate against Chinese people, right? Just because they're all Asian it doesn't mean they're all okay with each other. War crimes and all that. I do have to agree that his reaction is less from being offended and more from being potentially assblasted by the Twitch community.
There doesn't need to be a reason for people to obsess over things anymore. Things are chosen to be "big" and then they become big.
I haven't had chance to play my copy yet, but there doesn't seem to be a drop of cynicism in the thing from what I can see. It's very "video-gamey" and in an era of games wanting to be more "cinematic" it's always nice to get a title like this even if it's rough around the edges.
Hard to disagree. Bugsnax's popularity before release felt like people were chomping at the bit for another FNAF or Undertale. Supposed cute thing ends up being horror or edgy. While I think the game itself did end up having some merit, I feel like it would have been pushed as a hit regardless
Sometimes a 7 out of 10 is all you need in-between the bigger titles. I'm glad that dev team is going strong.
People often underestimate how hard it can be to both concentrate on a game and talk to the viewers, especially if the gameplay is particulary intense or if it requires attentive listening. Not everyone is great at multitasking.
Sorry for the late reply. My dumbass didn't think to screenshot the original comment. The context was that some guy made the comment that vinny will probably still be streaming till his death.
Agree with you, but I also think he was mainly just faking his reaction for comedic effect, not because he was genuinely afraid of getting cancelled. I thought it was funny anyway.
