>render it almost unplayable due to the most annoying writing in video game history

I had no idea writing and voice acting could bring down a game so much. The crazy thing is that the (((critics))) thought it was hilarious.

It's like one of dozens of "player is in a fixed position while controlling a character in an action platformer" games on PSVR.

It's not the gameplay that's supposed to be the draw, it's the Reddit and Memey writing. If you want a similar game just play Moss. Apparently it's pretty serviceable.

Reminder the guy behind this once fired his entire writing team for trying to unionize and then replaced them with women to try and virtue signal the misdeed away.

There are a few games I dropped less than an hour in because of horrendous voice acting.

Oh shit, that looks just as good if not better. Glad there’s an alternative because a part of me genuinely wanted to play this but damn is everything aside from the gameplay grating.

>>16629157

I can deal with some shitty voice acting and can even find a charm to it, but when a game won’t shut the fuck up and is bombarding your ears it crosses the line.

I played Nier Automata with jap dub and subtitles instead of english dub because it was a generic mediocre english anime sort of dub, but the problem with that is trying to read exposition and play the game at the same time is impossible so you wind up missing out on what the fuck is even happening at times.

A man's sense of humor is based on being able to make others laugh. If people laugh at a man's jokes, people will think he is funny.

A woman's sense of humor is based on laughing at others' jokes. If a woman laughs at someone's jokes, they will think she is funny.

Women do everything by committee approval. Laughter is based on bait and switch shock tactics.

Mass appeal is non offensive so women can only be funny by being disgusting.

But OP don't you love self aware ironic humor that tries it's hardest to NOT be immersive but instead goes out of it's way to make you know they're just making it up as it goes along?!

Rick and Morty were never funny to begin with. They just got way less funny once they hired a diverse cast of writers. I don't get the appeal of this trite anti-humor that autists were screeching about a sauce over it.

Women are genetically disposed to being slaves to men. Thinking for themselves or anything beyond superficial cognition isn't their strong suit.

These are as important to video games as gameplay. Same with OST. It makes the difference between an enjoyable game and a tedious one. No matter how good the gameplay in a game is, if it's a fucking chore, it's a bad game.

Take for example games like No More Heroes with barebones gameplay, yet it's enjoyable to play at least once.

I played it through and absolutely hated the kind of lazy humor it had. Most of the jokes were funny and the characters weird enough to keep it interesting, but holy fuck was it spoiled by constant meta and blooper reel material. I have no idea why the fucker that made this wanted to keep so much of the failed dialogue in. I guess it's cool now or something, but I'm old fashioned and think that you should aim to make the best product you can, silly me. The meta jokes and unintentional laughing in the middle of monologue just made me want to stop playing.

To the games credit, there is an absolutely amazing bit where Trover talks about what his old band sounded like, it goes on for about 3 minutes and it's just pure gold. But obviously it's cut in the middle by faggy laughter. The bit would be amazing, but spoiled by the lazy shit not giving enough of a shit about his own product.

George Carlins ghost is going to rape me for mentioning him here, but I have to make this comparison. How much would of Carlins comedy suffer if he'd stop to laugh at himself in the middle of his long rants about radioactive deers on meth? It would be unbearably bad and make the whole joke less funny. So Roiland is less entertaining than Carlin and stops to laugh at his own funny monologue all the time. If this pisses you off, stay the fuck away from this game, it's full of it.

Roiland got famous for his stuttery, faux-adlib style of "humor" where he just pretends that every character is just him casually sitting around in the recording booth saying whatever comes to his mind.

I'm playing through Borderlands 2 with a friend. The game's pretty fun when you don't listen to a single line of dialogue and know which (side)quests to avoid. That way you have time to bust each other's balls and focus on the shooting.

I saw a gameplay demo, and it looked like a shitty budget knockoff of Astrobot Rescue (which is already a shitty budget VR knockoff of a Mario game).

>innovative

No, nigger. It's derivative as fuck. The exact opposite of innovative.

With a coating of wubbalubbadubdub to sell to retards in the complete vacuum of anything that would actually make it worthwhile.

That's not what anti-humour is. Rick and Morty is a mix of zany and dark humour. This is anti-humour.

Well, yes, the lack of shitty music or anything else can also improve games. Pong and tetris comes to mind, but seeing how things like Tetris 99 and Tetris effect exists and are quite good, little details like that can turn an already good game into something better.

Imagine if borderlands didn't have couch co-op.
