Not much. You hear a little of a devs political viewd but it honestly comes off as satirical. The characters are pretty well written and have realistic problems, and the art style is pretty good to look at.

No, I said that the "its so hard being gay even tho no one hates on us" persecution complex was valid criticism, but I have no problem in there being a gay couple. I just think people are getting burned out on gays because the SJW menace left a sour taste in their mouths, but I don't think that makes any game where there just happens to be a gay couple bad by default. In New Vegas you could find out if other people were gay by taking a perk and hitting on them, and I think this is a better system that should be implemented.

If I did some legwork, I could probably find THOUSANDS of games where you had to do something "straight" (stuff like courting a woman as a male PC) to advance the plot or get something in a collect-a-thon style RPG. It's not going to fucking kill someone to do something "gay" anymore than it would kill them to play as a women PC, or play as a character not of their own race, or anything else. It's on the level of those religious fucks claiming agony and suffering upon having to make a cake for faggots. It's JUST A FUCKING GAME!

There's been so many surveys and reports over the years that looking at any one number is foolish. I've seen as high as 10% if you include all the bisexuals.

Anyway, I think that analogy is pretty shit when we're talking about sexuality.
Though, recent events've made 'gayness' pretty much an identity. At this point, far too many people are 'gay', in that they're gay for the 'community' and fashion of being 'gay'.
I'm sure the reverse is true, gay people who don't want to be linked to the stereotypical 'gay' who's now the face of every gay man ever since they want to jam their sexuality in front of everyone all the time.

For something to be objectively good, everyone has to like it. I read this thread just to see all the arguing. I'm not much of a gamer and haven't played this game, but some great music comes out of games, so I dug up the soundtrack.
This sort of music is really just a mood-setter, not something intended to be listened to on its own, but even the shortest loop (see: the well-known DuckTales "moon" level) has the potential to be engaging. Nothing in this "Night in the Woods" soundtrack was BAD, but a lot of it seemed boring. I did hear a few fun-sounding tracks.
I do occasionally play games, and if they're tangentially furry-related I may give them a try. I'm sometimes okay with stuff that features one-dimensional characters. But from what I've heard about this one, I think I'll pass.

I think the art style is fine & has it's own charm (Not everything has to be sexy, that's rule 34's job). What really sucks is that all the characters are abrasive & annoying, with barely any differences since they all talk & act the same. I don't get why anybody would put up with an entire games worth of shitty teenage tumblr dialogue, unless they had such low self esteem that this game somehow made them feel better about themselves.

I can empathize with the characters, but it doesn't mean I don't find them obnoxious & annoying. I just found too much of the dialogue to be too stupid, and a lot of the situations stupid as well. The only arguments I've heard in favor of what it is were "Oh, well it's supposed to be like that." Sure, it was probably deliberately made to have all the characters be edgy retards, but that doesn't automatically make me like them, whether I'm an edgy retard or not. I grew up in a small town with plenty of similarities to this game, and yet it still managed to fly past the mark for me. I don't get the "charm" past the initial reaction to the cutesy art style.

The political bashing usually comes secondary to the fact that the games themselves are shit. Look at almost every game with a heavy political agenda and you'll see that hiring no-talent idealogues to design a game results in a shit game.
Mass Effect Andromeda was a massive piece of shit in a technical sense. The fact that the devs were literally racist and hate attractive women for existing is fun to poke fun at but that's not why it's shit on endlessly.
Night in the Woods is a boring non-game with a poorly written story and characters who are unlikeable at best. The town is supposedly dying but this is never accurately portrayed in any way during the game, the character conflicts are portrayed in the most dull and hamfisted manner possible for a medium built on player interact. Let's just have two characters stand motionless in an environment and talk about how, like, stuff is rough man. Ugh, I'm so trash. Eff this.
It's not a good game. So people rate it as a game and it winds up sub-par even as far as indies are concerned. The fact that the developer has a fucked political worldview is entertaining to make fun of, and thus, it's what people post the most about.
>>41266

Only good thing going for the game was the art style, and that's only mediocre if you ask me, especially when we're talking indie games. It gives the look of cutout characters, which isn't inherently bad, but lacks a lot of detail, and isn't really enough to contribute to the game in a meaningful way, in regards to 'atmosphere'.

The story is not at all excellent because all of the dialog is squeezed into 20 word or less speech bubbles.

It drips of "entitled millenial who never leaves his house but still thinks everything sucks." If you're a nihilist dipshit then I can see how every character lamenting their lives while literally fucking nothing happens would be interesting to you, but to normal people, they just sound like whiny children. You sound like a whiny child though, so again, I can see why you'd relate. If you take all the politics out of the game it's one dimensional shrimp feed that has zero substance and doesn't even have an ending.

Glad to see you picked up the spiritual successor to 'Gone Home'.
At least with Undertale, the central mechanic revolved around taking all the stuff that RPG players take for granted and flipping them on their head. Grinding is right out, low level runs are encouraged, and every character has some personality to them instead of just being cookie-cutter guys spouting out a few lines of dialogue. What does Night in the Woods offer? If it's a visual novel, is it a satire on how linearity destroys games? Fuck, if I was doing that, I'd throw in a Final Hallway 13 joke for the hell of it.

Bioshock is a completely devastating deconstruction of objectivism and free market capitalism, it's leftie as fuck.
Deus Ex has different endings, but it mostly leads you towards the AI overlord ending which is basically telling you it's going to establish full-on authoritarian collectivism. The main antagonist is a corporatist so you're essentially asking yourself throughout the whole game if capitalism is really what you think it is. Pretty lefty if you ask me.
MGS series has the common trend for the most part of anti-militarism. Which is odd because The Boss herself espouses a worldview based on anarchic-militarism, so it's extremist as well.

The demon tower minigame in it has good mechanics. It's short, but the genius thing about NITW is it's pacing. It lets you kind of drop or pick up things again at your leisure. I think the creators intended for you to play a bit of the demon tower minigame, stop, move on with the main story, then come back and repeat this process multiple times. This creates an interesting effect as your attention gets dragged between the more mechanic demon tower game and the walking--hang-out-with-your-friends sim effect of the main game.

Also, there was a game called "Lost Constellation" that was released as a teaser for NITW, that the creators decided to release it for free or pay-what-you-want. It's free of all the social commentary of the main game, but is pretty similar in it's presentation. I also enjoyed it a lot, and think it has a more magical interesting feel to it that the main game didn't have. The world really brought back a nostalgia for like, early Zelda games and stuff like that.

But those are socialist programs. In capitalism, they would not EXIST because they do not increase profit for any individual or corporation.
See, that's the real issue. Communism is what happens when a government corrupts pure socialism. Pure capitalism is a literal dog-eat-dog environment where millions would also starve, and here the role of the government is to restrain it by adding in small bits of socialism. Capitalism doesn't require a government to function.

The art was mediocre, there weren't enough sprites and some of them were reused in totally innappropriate situations, and the title is stupid. "Angels with Scaly Wings" Except dragon wings are membranous, not scaly, and the artwork in the game doesn't seem to say otherwise. The story was okay, but even that got a little out of hand at some parts. Morenatsu is still the best furry VN we've got, and I'd say Great Troubles also beats this game out.

Anna.
Hard to say exactly why, to be honest. Her personality clicked fairly okay for me. A bit of a bitch, but not in a horrible way I'd say. She doesn't seem to mean what she says, as it were.
That, and her mentality of more 'overcoming the world' help a lot. She's got a lot of ambition, and doesn't let things hold her back. This is something of an important aspect for me, as it's what I consider to be the very foundation of what a human is. I'm a bit loose on the 'human' bit, but the spite, the desire to advance, I can't respect people who lack it.
It also helps that she's one of the two female options.
Her bad end was also about the only genuinely good ending, you ask me. Others were lackluster, but that bad ending really yanked at the heartstrings. Especially since it was my first ending.
My 2nd favorite is Sebastian, though.

Castle doctrine is not a defined law in the US, and in the invocation of it as a justification for the use of deadly force in the US, requires a reasonable use of that force. You can't pop a guy twelve times because he tried to steal your car or computer. You can pop him once after verbally warning him to fuck off for trying to chop you with a hatchet, and if that doesn't stop him from continuing to try and chop you, you can then put one more slug of lead into him again until he is persuaded to stop trying to do that, repeat this process until he is sufficiently persuaded or you unfortunately end up killing him.
This is generally how a court will view it.

Depends on the state, typically you're okay to blast someone what's trespassing into your home. Certainly in mine.
From what I understand, in Texas, that also applies to your car. So you can do the same if someone's stealing your car, there, too.
Not sure why you would. Theft protection typically comes standard, and offers a goodly sum.
I think your issue is not understanding how self defense cases work.
All you need is to be reasonably in fear of your life.
Someone breaking in to your home is reason enough in plenty of states.
Castle doctrine and stand your ground laws only mean, effectively, that you have no obligation to run away, or not try to get back your property.
I don't have legal right to shoot someone in the back, but I do have the right to chase them down for my shit, and if they fight me for it, I have the legal right there to shoot them.

That degrees are useless pieces of paper serving only to indenture you to Soros/Zog Ltd. is a pretty common sentiment on the right. I understand that he probably didn't couch it in the correct memes, but again, he sounds fucking autistic, so I can sort of see why he'd invoke "materialism" instead of some bullshit about how #trad monks did it for the love of knowledge, man.

Suffice to say, the whole 'UD LIKE IT IF IT WAS THE JUUUUUUS' is nonsense. Saying "X, don't buy my game" is pretentious cancer in general. And besides that, the game's still shit, with the only notable feature being the game's politics.

It's not much of a stretch to feel sufficiently threatened by someone who has entered your home illegally. They could very well be there with the intent to kill you anyway, they might decide to kill you or injure you to avoid potential further legal repercussions, you can't be sure. Having the right to defend yourself from a criminal doesn't seem unreasonable to me, this isn't a case of some dude opening the wrong door to what he thinks is his friend's house in the middle of the day. This is somebody who has broken into your home with unknowable ill intentions.
I don't get how wanting to be able to defend myself from someone busting into my home is unreasonable. Seems to me like you're just another limp wristed faggot who doesn't like guns because they scare him and can't possibly conceive the thought of someone else using them to defend themselves or somebody they care about.

Should I just start wrapping my kid in bubble wrap, just to be safe? There's a fuck ton of shit that kills people. Hell, I probably shouldn't drive at all, given how many people die from that. I'll just keep my kid trapped at home, in the basement, where it is safe.
▶ No.42338>>42348 >>42386

Your reductio ad absurdem about locking kids in basements or throwing out the old "bubble wrap" line doesn't help the argument. To attempt to actually make your drowning argument work, yes home pools can be both dangerous and unnecessary, but pools are not made WITH THE ONLY PURPOSE BEING KILLING PEOPLE. It would be more like a booby-trap that will flood your house and drown a burglar, and then your kid accidentally tripping it. Having a gun around just because you want to be the big man protecting your house against invisible boogymen is just your own paranoia and stupidity endangering your child.
And before you pull that "I live in a dangerous part of the city where I actually do need a gun to defend myself from being mugged/robbed" nobody is forcing you to reproduce and put innocent kids into that same situation. Having children is literally the most selfish action you can possibly take as a human being, and shouldn't be done unless you are completely sure you can sufficiently take care of them. That includes not having them hang around places where there are people or weapons that can kill them. There isn't any way to "childproof" a gun, like putting it in a safe or storing it unloaded, without also making it impossible to use it should a burglar surprise you in a dark living room some night. A gun that isn't in your hand isn't going to help, and unless you literally carry the thing around with you at all times, it likely won't be there when you need it, anyway. Statistically speaking, you're more likely to shoot yourself (suicide) than anyone else.
▶ No.42348

The purpose of an item does not matter. What matters is its effect. The whole "GUNS ARE DESIGNED TO KILL" argument is retarded, in this regard.
So fucking what if they're "designed to kill"? Which I don't even agree they are, generally speaking. I mean, some are, arguably, but then even military rifles haven't been "designed to kill" for some time. The throwing of metal at extreme speeds does that enough on its own. They're "designed" to fire multiple in quick secession while being light-weight, and reliable.
Or at least, that's what we should be saying. Reality is, we make what we make because it benefits some politician somewhere. It ain't like there aren't better options out there than the M-series we're using, or for that matter 5.56
But I'm getting away from the point, here.
Having a pool is far more dangerous to your child than having a gun. If you want to whine about "stupidly endangering your child", whine about pools. What's a pool's purpose? Entertainment? Certainly worth the risk of brutal death of your child, then, isn't it?
I'd make the case that's far worse than having a firearm in a troubled area.
>if you aren't a rich white-collar living in a gated community, you shouldn't have kids!
This is some pretty huge shittery, mate. Don't even know rightly how to respond to it, in all honesty, given how totally asinine it is.
I mean, it sounds to me like you think unless you aren't 100% perfectly stable with absolutely no way of risk to any child, bringing it up in the absolute perfect environment, you are a terrible person.
Leaving aside the obvious issue of you've just killed off most the world's population and working class, leaving only the wealthy who can afford to lock away the child in a perfect secure vault, this still leaves the shit I've already brought up.
With this logic, you've still got the same "lock your kid up and bubble wrap it" jazz, and you've still got the "pools are worse than guns" junk.
There's plenty of ways to "child proof" a gun. Far more than there is to "child proof" a pool.
Simplest way is to place it somewhere the child cannot reach. And of course punish the child if it tries, at all, explaining why. Teaching is a great preventor.
You can also keep it unloaded, and still be easily enough able to get it at a ready position in the event of an emergency. After all, a magazine only takes a moment to insert, as does charging the gun. Meanwhile, I'd make the case a kid's going to have a hard time charging it on their own, as the spring's a fair ways strong on most firearms. Hell, I have some trouble charging my own, though that's more due to a stupidly strong spring on a little gun with poor slide grip surfaces.
Why wouldn't I carry my gun? Only time I'd not is when I can't legally.
Suicide is the suicidee's business and nobody else's, you ask me.

If we didn't allow niggers or anyone else to have guns, would gun violence go down? No...? I'd love for you to come up with a reasoning for why.

It's like Gone Home, except it front-faces all of its details instead of making them subtle clues that you have to interpret yourself.
Time for character development? Tell, don't show. Let's have Mae and her mom have a sudden deep dramatic conversation about what a miracle baby her child is within a week of her coming home from college.
In this same week, let's introduce major looming threats like Mae not getting a job ranted at her by her neighbor. Let's let her know her parents are on the verge of losing their house, told directly by her mother. Does a character have deep regrets? Don't bother giving us the option to explore their homes, pick at their friends, and divine the information for oneself, just have the character outright tell you what a waste of life they think they are, because everyone should always burden everyone else by verbally venting their problems at them.
And then the credits roll and none of that shit even gets resolved. Mae will live, but she's got about a month until it all becomes a shithole again

Chara and Frisk are both typically depicted as girls, from what I've seen.
Is that good or bad in this context, though?
Undertale's base game isn't that cringy, but holy fuck did the fandom ruin it. Never seen so much cringe.
I miss the early-days threads on /v/, though. We even tried to counter some of the cringe in advance, to prevent, say, font OCs. The whole "shitty sans" line was also a pretty effective tact for dealing with some of the god-awful fan art.
Sadly, as interest died away, Tumblr took over. Now from what I understand, there's real font OCs, not to mention all the disgusting art and fanfics. Especially anything humanizing the lot.

I'm not sure what context you mean. The porn aspect? There are a lot more straight furries than gay furries, so it makes sense, but it's only "good" or "bad" depending on if you are straight. Although, in this case it makes zero sense because there are a lot more male furries (and video game players) and humanXfurry is pure self-insert wish-fulfillment, so you would expect most of them to want Frisk/Chara to be male and fucking female monsters (or at least more rule63 Asriel). I guess the lure of shotagoat cock is too powerful.
In any case, it's clear as crystal that it was intended for the Player to at least self-insert as Chara, meaning they should have the same gender (and name) as you do.
Also, you are correct that 95% of the game's cringe is fanworks, and 99% of cringy fanworks are skeleton-related. I like to think that Toby included Sans and Megalovania as a helpful edgy-retard filter. You can always tell, if someone says their favorite character/song is that one, that they're an edgy retard and can be ignored.

Eh, I'd be more generous and give it a 75%, myself. The humor is generally pretty trash, but it's not exceptionally bad. 'Sides, the whole game isn't the humor, fortunately.

Well, I don't know. I think the biggest issue with Chara is making them an actual separate character. As I said, they are intended to be your self-insert, so to speak, but hardly anyone does that. Quite contrarily, most players try to distance Chara as much as possible from themselves by making them out to be a mustache-twirling chessmaster villain who manipulated everyone in the main cast in an edgy quest to murder absolutely everyone, humans and monsters. Genocide isn't the player's fault, it's the horrible murdering child finally getting what they want, or something.
I suppose making Chara a girl can be part of that separation, for a male player, but I doubt it's so deep; it's just that it seems every person on this board has a massive hardon for lolis and like pigeonholing every girl who isn't a genki cupcake into a "tsundere" personality.

That's partly because the nature of Chara isn't well explained.
I mean, supposedly, he's got a history with goatkid, after all. Tried to get him to murder a bunch of people, and all that.
Frisk, at least, is for sure a girl.

The theory that Chara is the narrator at all times, in all runs, is basically canon at this point. That tells you pretty much everything about them as a person.
>Frisk, at least, is for sure a girl.
Why would you think that??

'Cause Frisk looks like a dora reject.
That and the pink-striped shirt. To be fair, colors are a bit weird in the game, but all the same, my money's on a little girl.

I played about 5 hours, up to the Halloween party, in one sitting about three months ago and it's just been sitting on my harddrive since then. I can't really bring myself to play anymore, I didn't think it was bad just really boring. Wake up, walk around, talk to the same people, go home, repeat. All the dialogue seemed to be either melodramatic or unimportant. I don't know, I'll probably finish it eventually but it really wasn't my thing. Liked the computer game in NITW though.

This. I am ashamed that I paid $20 for this piece of shit. It is the reason that I now always pirate before I buy if possible. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't the bad guys conservatives that literally sacrificed people?
There was one song that sounded nice though.

Seriously. Their parents went to war to make the country both safe and rich, and put men on the moon, just so they could leverage their OWN children in a massive country-wide Ponzi Scheme for their own benefit. It doesn't get more fucking evil than that except the bit where they continued to cut off parts of their kid's dicks for no reason than their own vanity "the son should look like the father".
