it's so fucking bad, and the story itself that everyone raves about is so fucking bad, especially now that the tranny creator retconned it to be a tranny main character
It's called the Flavor of the Month. When the month ends the sheep find a new game to play, their attention spans too short to enjoy something for any period of time longer.
>their attention spans too short to enjoy something for any period of time longer
it's not so much that their attention spans are too short, it's more that most of the people who were playing it were just following what streamers were doing. this isn't really the kind of game that you keep coming back to over and over, unlike classic games or games with an actual multiplayer scene. it's all just about whatever le ebic PewDiePlier is playing at the time.
This game was never anything more than quick youtube/streamer content. On its own its not fun at all, the only reason you'd ever play this is to have an audience watch and laugh when you fall or POG when you win. Now that every streamer/youtuber has played it, there's no reason to talk about it anymore.
Flavour of the month shit happens all the time.
One hit wonders in music, yo-yos coming and going for a year every decade or so; same deal with video games.
>wow this game so frustrating so hard to beat >oh its been a week and everyone has already beaten it >...........
"hard" platformer games and incredibly one dimensional, 0 replay value unless you are a speedrunner autist
Obviously unless a game has constantly repeating discussions and endless threads it is an evil plot by the Dark Shadow EX Government to prevent gamers from rising up and freeing themselves from oppression.
And keep in mind, if a game DOES have constantly repeating discussions and endless threads, it is also an evil plot by the shadow government to keep gamers in check.
I believe it. There's no way anons are still arguing about the plot and characters of Persona 3 and Dark Souls without being lizard men who lack human emotions. It's just not possible.
Sometimes I wonder if the people who make these threads are just trolling, or if they're genuinely so autistic that they think unless people continuously discuss a game with 15 minutes worth of content every day for years on end, that proves the game was bad all along.
Trolling seems like the obvious answer, but the thing about autists is a lot of them genuinely do devote their entire lives to one singular game and never play or think about anything else forever, and they project that same trait onto everyone else and think that any game other people don't also play forever must be bad.
you guys are taking this the wrong way, im not implying a conspiracy is at play,it's just my choice of words perhaps.

No anon there are people who have the same discussion about dark souls 2 every single day. They expect you to just never shut up about something if you liked it.
Zoomers literally refuse to do anything that they assume everyone else is not doing
Whenever you see a sales thread or a steam charts thread, it's 100% a underage posting them
of the fotm meme games this one has always confused me because there were multiple flash versions of it made in like fucking 2006. I remember playing them at school
Why did it take off? I don’t even understand why speedrun autists like it
It's called content creator fodder, and every game they played that blew up was a fad, except for FNAF and Undertale. I'll give you two guesses as to which cancerous community kept those two fads alive.
Yeah man that joke game from the QWOP guy was a israeli psyop with the objective further genociding you just like the children's cartoons and paper receipts.
Game designed for streamers. Since it's not fun it inherently doesn't attract any actual genuine discussion other than when some famous streamer is playing "that game that's super hard and makes gamers seethe while le hecking commentator talks in the background"
>Make a shitty game where you just have to CLIMB UP TO THE TOP, where the gimmick is you can fall all the way down >Pay streamers 5-6 figures to play your game >Farm KEKW's and OMEGALUL's in chat as streamer heckin falls! >Put up a leaderboard/scorboard and start a mini tournament for a few thousand for the winner at the end of the month >make the game cost <10 dollars to sucker in all the poor people so they can get in on it
I am allowed to tease people if I want and reply to multiple different posters in a thread, anon. It's going to absolutely blow your mind when you learn that some anons even stick around in subsequent threads about new games to answer MULTIPLE questions every individual thread. Shocking.
Just like amongus, literature club...
actually wanted to make a small list of fotm games but I'm too fucking lazy to remember more than two. You get the idea anyway
fall guys, papers please, suika game, chillas art games, slenderman, streamer horror games, only up
all the shit the variety streamers and vtubers shit out at the same time
9/10 it turns into a forgotten fotm.
It was a psyop to make retards with bad taste in shit gameplay think they are superior for bashing their head against a wall for hours on end as a condescending homosexual subtly mocks them.
it's small and fun. small amount of fun has been had by everyone, and so it came to an end. Nothing is ever exploding in popularity and then staying there forever. Modern hits come and go, and big old classics are worshipped by their respective niches - ask any modern kid what he thinks about deus ex and he won't know what are you talking about.
It was made by a philosophy professore in new york who had already made enormously popular games and made absurd amounts of money from them, and he had enormous amounts of exposure from his buddies in the US gaming press of which he has many.
Normal people play a game until they feel satisfied then move on to something else.
Autistic people pick 1 game and proceed to play and talk about nothing but that game for the rest of their lives, and believe that if you ever stop playing a game for any reason it means you didn't actually like it.
There will always be fad indie games, especially if they're streamer bait.
Climbing/walking games are the biggest fad games. I can't believe Sony is going all in on one of them.
Yeah, the average person doesn't care about it anymore but it's apparently still decently popular among speedrunners
>the only people speedrunning are preteens and troons
>speedrunner preteens and troons
these are just the same groups of people at different points in their lives
Celeste is such a dogshit game holy shit
it's so fucking bad, and the story itself that everyone raves about is so fucking bad, especially now that the tranny creator retconned it to be a tranny main character
>Subway Surfers
>Roblox games
What the fuck
Surfers
Anon...
zoomers are getting nostalgic over it, Just like for jetpack joyride
Just a flash in the pan meme game like many others. Not some shadowy agenda.
fotm indie bullshit game
It was just one of the earlier ones

A very good reason for why mario doesn't do this.
Modern Mario has the same problem but in reverse, zero replayability because there's no challenge.
You have to find the right balance.
>people play new game
>people beat new game
>people move on to another game
WOOOOOW IS THIS SOME KIND OF ZIONIST AGENDA

It's the same as that one autist on /a/ who calls anime that isn't discussed constantly "time flops"

streamers. its just showing you that most people either dont have the capacity to think for themselves or dont have the time and energy to do so.
Game designed for streamers. Since it's not fun it inherently doesn't attract any actual genuine discussion other than when some famous streamer is playing "that game that's super hard and makes gamers seethe while le hecking commentator talks in the background"
i guess people just got over it
VOLCARLOS!!!
It was a memeslop game entirely developed to attract attention from streamers in order to make money due to how wacky and nonsensical it was.
What's the difference between a psyop and a flavor of the month? Is it the cute girls?
Heavily punishing games are streamer bait, you don't want to play them yourself but watch someone else rage at them.
OP do you not understand the concept of novelty? Do you have brain damage?
What? I never saw anyone talk about this game. Happy Wheels is the game you should be talking about.
>fads are psyops
Perhaps you spend too much time on the internet.
well it's the first one of it's kind, so you never know
>Make a shitty game where you just have to CLIMB UP TO THE TOP, where the gimmick is you can fall all the way down

Youve made a million dollars in sales, congrats
You sound jealous.

You made it too easy

interesting.

Oh nice, where's your game then?
>lose it all when companies come demanding their pound of flesh
>pull your hack game when everybody sees it for what it really is
>Pay streamers 5-6 figures to play your game
i'm fairly certain most did it 4free copies of the game
Just like amongus, literature club...
actually wanted to make a small list of fotm games but I'm too fucking lazy to remember more than two. You get the idea anyway
that doesnt always correlate to them being inherently bad games, they tick all the checks tho
fall guys, papers please, suika game, chillas art games, slenderman, streamer horror games, only up
all the shit the variety streamers and vtubers shit out at the same time
9/10 it turns into a forgotten fotm.
Children still play among us constantly.
Instead of doing their algebra. Or anything else really.
Is this some kind of knock-off skibidi toilet?
BLEED
/V/iggas claim to hate GAAS and then turn around and do this shit

>simple game that can be easily finished in 15 minutes once you git gud isn't constantly discussed years after release
Gee, it's a mystery
Normal people play a game until they feel satisfied then move on to something else.
Autistic people pick 1 game and proceed to play and talk about nothing but that game for the rest of their lives, and believe that if you ever stop playing a game for any reason it means you didn't actually like it.
I actually enjoyed playing it and liked his message
People got over it
It's the exact same thing since Happy Wheels and QWOP, play for a month then look for the next FoTM
