Forced
No, mostly because
The entire game is just "DOOD REMEMBER LE CDI GAMES LOL" without much substance to it.
I'm forcing my dick in your ass.
>community of autistic young men attracts autistic young men
Still tragic, though.
it insists upon itself
Like said. It's forced. We retroactively like the CDi games because of what came after them. The YTPs we watched back in the late 2000s.
maybe the faces of evil was... the friends we made along the way.
this. Tries way too hard to be cd i Zelda and not its own thing.
How long until we add CDI to the chart?

YOU WEREN'T HERE, MAN!!
A so bad is good movie is a lighting in a bottle, trying to purposely make one of those is never going to work, same with this, the original was a lighting in a bottle you can't replicate it.
Exactly
Yup. Trying to replicate the humor in something like The Room is impossible. When someone is genuinely trying their hardest to make something great, but they’re just incompetent, and you can see it in the final product, it tends to be hilarious. Even look at King Kong Skull island and Gollum as recent turds where clearly the product they envisioned was nowhere near what they were capable of creating.
TLDR; you can’t be in on the joke, the joke has to be at your expense.
But I am still a little intrigued.
Lemme guess because it's a modern western game:
>MC is a lesbian
>LGBT characters
>Millenial writing
>Meta humor
Millennial writing isn't a thing, the majority of modern writers are Gen Xers
Millennials are too broke and overworked to write anything
right on the mark lol
except for meta humor, although I guess the game itself is meta
Is it selling or not though is the big question.
Only thing we got was that it got a high metacritic posted by the dev. Nothing else.
So it's completely worthless
It's a very niche game riding off nostalgia of a so bad it's good entries of official Zelda games. I couldn't give a frick about arzette because characters like her are a dime a dozen now
200 reviews on Steam, so that's somewhere between 4000 and 10000 copies on that platform. Indie games tend to sell better on consoles though, from what I remember the ratio is somewhere between 1:10 to 1:20 so I'm guessing it at least sold 70-140k copies.
I bought it on Switch and had a fun time, but because it's Limited Run Games literally nobody is going to get a physical copy in the 3.5 years it'll take for them to finally start shipping them to their partnered Best Buy stores, and despite what you'd think there are a lot of people who still prefer buying games physically.
Right on the fricking mark
Even better is the fact that the chick who's in love with her is some sort of ice witch in a ice zone who is a fricking Black person
Thought it was that cookie girl or whatever that creature was.
Nailed it on the fricking head. Whats funny is every other character is more entertaining than arzette and would have made for a better protag.
Yes
Yes (this is just restating the first point dumbo)
No, its parodying CDi writing
No
>parodying CDi writing
It's the room all over again. As soon as Tommy tried to be generally funny with his other projects they just never hit the same
In a way, yes. I think its fair to have that as a real complaint, but you can hardly call it "millennial writing"
The thing is Arzette is being done by the person who made the CDi remasters for PC to make them playable. So at least he understands the games better than most and it's really a passion project more so than just a cash-in.
Just for that I'm going to support the game, I loved having a playable version of the two Zelda CDi games. And this will likely play just like those. Of course the unintentional humor of the originals will be intentional here but I'd say there's enough soul in the project.
>Just for that I'm going to support the game
You said that several days ago, shill. Buy the game already and shut up.
It’s not AAA and Sweet Baby Inc didn’t work on it, calm your breasts chud.
Dopply might as well be a Sweet Baby employee.
I thought this game was made by that autism dude who remake zelda cdi so people can play without emulator etc? I thought he was based as frick without LGBT shit..
Explain the lesbian thing. Are there more lgbt characters besides the protagonist?
Theres an Ice Queen who taunts the princess before leaning in close to her face almost kissing her, making her blush, and there’s an ugly cabbage patch doll looking baker who literally says the Princess if she wants to go get coffee
No more gay shit besides that? Seems tame compared to what I was expecting.
not a chance, cutscenes are lacking in trademark cd-i zooming and smoothness
Lesbians don't exist
I am a lesbian in a male body
OH. MY. GOD. IT IS LE HECKIN WOKE ANIMU
The CDi games were funny because they were unintentionally bad. Arzette is intentionally copying them.
yes, and that's why it's good
wrong, those cdi had that charm of not being self-aware, they legit thought this looked good. meanwhile this one knows its bad which doesn't feel genuine because nothing was made as a genuine project
The other issue is you had Zelda and Link acting like sociopathic goofballs which was an insane characterization of both from an official Nintendo licensed game.
The game seems decent. Like what the CDI Zeldas could have been if they fixed hitboxes, damage, platforms etc.
The Cutscenes are by their design tryhard as they are callbacks to a meme, and probably will be used in YTP to some success I'd assume.
Unfortunately it's also exactly like the CDi games in the wrong ways, too. Namely, you can go to plenty many places, but the game expects you to tackle places in a specific order, since otherwise you won't have the necessary equipment or items. That was just the icing on the shit sundae with CDi, so why copy that sort of progression?
It's more like a mediocre Castlevania clone than anything
So not terrible but nothing special if you don't care about the gimmick
I want to frick Arzette in her delicious brown pussy while the Hotel Mario intro music plays.
*bowser peaks from behind a wall and laughs*
NICE OF THE PRINCESS TO INVITE US OVER FOR A DICK LICK, GAY LUIGI?
I HOPE SHE'S GOT LOTS OF STDS!
that laugh was so ominous for no reason
It's not its own thing so it won't have much staying power
Yes because Undertale brought back the legacy of YTPs to the younger generation, thank Toby for saving YTPs.
I have never in my life seen an undertale ytp, you made that up
?si=3LExgVyYeCuKWA_q
This is not a "ytp" you moronic zoomer
We also have Siivagunner reviving dead memes with the help of Toby Fox, did you also know he also saved anime by bringing attention to it.
I have no idea what Undertale has to do with YTP, but there was a reference to "The King installs Sony Vegas" in Deltarune, so maybe he means that.
Probably not, it was a game made specifically for those who grew up in that age of the internet moreso than those who actually enjoyed the CDi.
The Hotel Mario Beta footage on the other hand is a different story
I don't mind the cutscenes in that style but most of them are way too long. Like the bar scene where the horse person or whatever was upgrading Arzette's sword, why make it that long?
The whole joke for that cutscene is that the horse guy is grunting the whole way through and the cutscene is way too long and you can't skip it.
>dogshit designs
>really stiff animation that's bad because the animators are dogshit rather than being bad because of how ugly and overly animated it is
>tries way too hard with the reddit humor to be funny
yeah no
>dogshit designs
>really stiff animation
That's whole point, dumbass.
It's tribute to the Phillips CDi
You take that back
The character designs were immaculate and the animation was breathtaking
>moron doesn't know shit about animation
the animation in the old CDI games isn't stiff, it's overly animated
notice how in the CDi games they never hold the same frame and instead every frame is different
now look at the arzette cutscenes and notice how they take every single shortcut they can to extend frames and poses as long as possible
also arzette is in 3D unlike the CDi games which are in full 2D
here's the average arzette cutscene, it has maybe 10 individual frames... max
that looks cheap
Is there an option to turn off the subtitles?
>here's the average arzette cutscene
the average cutscene is in 3D with a filter applied to give it the pixelated outline
God that's fricking terrible. I've seen more YTPs with original animation than this shit.
I dont like the 3d but it's only likeb2 cutscenes that are 3d like that, don't lie!
>motherfricking 3D because they can't animate for shit
IM SO FRICKING TIRED OF THE DAMN INDIE DEVS
GOD FRICKING DAMN IT WHY CANT YOU ALL DIE
The irony is that these 3d models could easily be used to emulate the crazy CD-I camera movement.. but they didn't do that.
I was seriously gonna write this exact same thing. The original animations had a camera riding a goddamn roller coaster. It made a lot of the sequences unintentionally scary/unsettling.
He has Christian game proportions.
It's weird because that's the only scene in the game that uses 3d/rotoscoping that badly, and it's the worst one. I hate it.
>average
No, only the parts this guy worked on.
>in gimp
FRICKING BASED
funniest part is that those 100 hours could have been used to actually attempt the artstyle by hand and likely get something resembling the CD-I artstyle instead of trying to mimic it with the wrong tools.
I doubt the slavs who made the original animation had any formal animation training beforehand
that is kinda based yeah
I’ve done something similar in photoshop and it turned out pretty cool but yeah he totally could have done literally anything else
I think, and this could be wrong and i'm sure someone good with prompting dalle could probably do it faster, but the only real way to replicate this art style is with hand drawing. That's just the nature of Straight Ahead animation. Computer tools are great but they lead to focusing on the wrong things.
why the frick
How big was the original slav team? Because I know they had at least 15-20 people for the whole project
Dropping it on one or even five people seems like an even poorer idea than getting 15 to finish it in 6 weeks
>Jimmy Davis worked on this
>He recently announced his retirement from making YTPs
It fricking killed his spirit
give me 2D or give me death.
Simpsons DS game looking ass
This is lame as shit, I thought they somehow got the director or at least the studio who did the originals to work on this?
It somehow looks cheaper than the CDi games
There's no body warping or random zooming in and out. Did they really just forget or was it beyond their ability?
I think they only cared about the art style. The animation is extremely bland which is why it's bad.
How did they frick up the animation this hard?
Good animation is expensive.
hell, even bad animation is still expensive and tedious compared to other mediums. someone who's just into the cd-i look for the so-bad-its-good ironic appeal probably never appreciated what an enormous effort they represented.
They weren't born and raised on a fine diet of Treasure Island and Soviet copies of western animation and thus think all cartoons look that way like the creators of the CD-I animation were.
Personally I like Adventures of Captain Wrongel better: it was surprisingly more ambitious with its weird cel animation considering it was released nearly a decade prior to Treasure Island. That’s not to say that Treasure Island isn’t a good film (it is and it inspired me to read the book, which is also great), but it’s apparent that the end of the Soviet Union began to take its toll on how ambitious animated films could be.
what's some good later-period soviet animation to check out? i only know a bit from the 50s & 60s with more of a UPA look
Armenfilm’s “Wow! A Talking Fish” and “In the Blue Sea, In the White Foam” are pretty good; the visuals are very trippy and really push the limits of animation. “The Vampires of Geona” and its sequels are also pretty cool, but it’s more of a science fiction cartoon that could be a useful source of inspiration if some madman were to make a “CD-i” sci-fi shooter.
As an aside, perhaps it’s my own personal bias speaking, but “Along the Road With Clouds” is one of my all time favorites, even if it’s just about a little tiger cub making some friends while on a walk with his Monkey friend; I feel like that’s also a reason why I like Diddy Kong Racing as a game, since many of the characters there remind me of the ones from the cartoon.
There’s loads of other cartoons, such as Gena the Crocodile, Leopold the Cat, and Adventures of Baron Munchausen, but they aren’t all too relevant.
thanks a lot, definitely sounds cool
No problem; besides, talking about cool Soviet cartoons sure beats talking about that steaming pile of dogshit calling itself a “CD-i” game. Oh yeah, I also recommend checking out “Last Year’s Snow Was Falling” and “Investigation Held by Kolobki” since they’re also pretty good too.
>Does not recommend Pilot Brothers
Anon... cвepь чacы, y тeбя cлoнa yкpaли
I knew I forgot something and added in a reference to it in this comment
. Wings, Legs, and Tails was also pretty funny and I also recommend that.
This premise doesn't really work if you're making something of vastly lower quality than the 'trash' you're mocking.
were they trying to mock the original animation by doing something badly made on purpose or they've seen the usual clips everyone meme about and use those few as reference?
I've seen flash videos before the age of affordable drawing tablets that had better animation. Absolutely pathetic.
how can something manage to look worse than the cdi games? fricking how? and they have the nerve to mock the cdi game's cutscenes
even if zelda did nothing but stare they animate each frame of her being idle instead of a stillframe. this level of overanimation is what makes CDi feel so genuine while thias garbage tries hard by cutting corners. It's like those westernize animes who don't know why anime has its charm in the first place and just copy paste superficial aspects of it
Typical western laziness.
There's something poetic about people who supposedly spend years of their life on the CDI games showing that they also don't understand them on a deeper level that "looool they are bad thats why they're funny LOL!!"
yeah its odd. there seems to be some cutscenes that are animated a little better but they unironically look like guest animators, like the one with the fat chick in the bar I swear is some mildly popular one because the style is so familiar
That's Dopply for ya. Dude is a huge moron.
Yeah The CDI Zelda games used straight ahead animation so they got that uncanny melty animation.
You get it. That's what gives it that surreal, floaty and "melty" appearance.
can you explain straight ahead animation? I'm not sure what that is.
Straight ahead is when you just animate and see where it goes. Often used for stuff like effects, like maybe water spakshes or similar, since it can be hard to plan keyframes for those ahead of time. Typically you kind of want to plan your animation ahead, by deciding keyframes or keyposes, so you know how a given action should flow.
Straight ahead animation is basically how you would animate using a flip book. You draw one picture at a time only going forward from the last drawing. How well your animation stays on model (doesn't melt and lose form) becomes a matter of your skill but the result is always interesting because you can do wild stuff easily like camera angle shifts and zooms, transformations, etc.
A lot of sakuga (the cool expensive animation) in anime is straight ahead animation, I don't think this point is emphasized enough.
>hurrr durrr i'm a moron that doesn't get soviet animation
saved you 2 of your gay reddit spaces
>reallly stiff animation
you fricking moron
The new lines from the Hotel Mario Beta are going to do leagues more than Arzette ever will.
Last I checked the YTP community was weirdly infested with leftoid trannies.
Most of them were autist. It was a strange pipeline that got young vulnerable people to turn troony because they made cliques and then lured them in. Very predatory shit happened on youchew but its not well known or documented for a lot of reasons
wtf, the exact same shit happened with Doomworld aka Troonworld around 2016.
Awful Fwafle was the first and he/she trained out and was exposed for grooming minors to send pics.
is that why all their shit was fricking nuked and i cant find anything except shit quality reuploads?
Last I checked the *real* YTP era died around 2010 and was replaced with Gmod videos, which in turn was replaced by SFM.
The cutscenes and overall designs just dont hit the same, they just copied vague and surface level stuff without understanding substance of what made cd-i cutscenes the way they are
no because the cutscenes arent remotely funny
that worthikids wizard beer animation feels closer to the CDi game cutscenes than this game does
moron, the Hotel Mario beta will do that.
Huh so that's why there's the awkward pause after he said book in the full release.
Famicom/Tmsgay, go back to Ganker.
i doubt it. very few characters are actually endearing
It lacks soul. They managed to copy all the audio-visual qualities of CDi games, but none of the soul of them.
arzette looks like someone from tumblr tried to redesign shantae
Gotcha senpai (It's pink too)
SHE'S RUINED
Thanks I hate it.
The only poop I want from this is pics of Arzette taking a huge shit
I appreciate the commitment buddy. I still want to see Arzette and Zelda kissing
Classic YTP worked because it was animated by a bunch of insane russkis trapped in an apartment in under 6 weeks for iconic video game franchises like Mario and Zelda. This tried to emulate that without understanding why or how those games felt like a twisted fever dream.
where did they Go wrong, though?
Don’t support this game. The dev harbored trannies on his old website and let it die from stupid drama and then made another site just to let that one die as well. He’s a spineless homosexual
>letting his site get killed by dumb troony drama
oh youchew
?t=779
Imagine getting WalrusGuy, an actual animator with a decent resume, to only animate one cutscene where nothing interesting happens. What an actual fricking waste.
I like the demon e-girl but holy hell does the animation completely miss the mark. Looks nothing like the CDi games.
The sad thing is that WalrusGuy has proven he has proven he can do a decent recreation of the original CD-i cutscenes. To only get him for one cutscene is a waste when I'm skipping through these and keep seeing ugly and obviously rotoscoped cutscenes
I thought giving the demon e-girl the oil would cuck me out of the ultimate sword, since they both wanted it I still gave her the oil first
Having the cutscenes be a bunch of random youtubers doing their own styles is dumb.
The voices have the same problem. Some of the cameos like vinnys are fine, because they actually had him record it in a studio I believe. Others, like the volcano dude and the rat, sound fricking awful and stick out like sore thumbs.
Yeah the rat has some awful echo. It really feels like a game made out of random shit thrown together because woah it's CD-i who cares about the quality or cohesion
pretty sure is to save production costs by tricking people into working for cheap.
Maybe, but they were willing to get link and zeldas old VAs, so why half ass it?
>they were willing to get link and zeldas old VAs
do those people even want to be found?
Idk, but they got them.
well i'll be damned
>Having the cutscenes be a bunch of random youtubers doing their own styles
How are you supposed to replicate Wand of Gamelon/Faces of Evil's animation perfectly when you have that going on?
Walrusguy probably just did it as a favor of course he phoned it in
Gen alpha detected
I don't feel like he really got to flex his... artistic skills? here. It's just one small ziplining cutscene. The rotation looks decent but he really should've been put on more cutscenes, he does some excellent bizarre facial animation like his work for Bushworld Adventures.
The animation in this game is way too fricking stiff which is the exact opposite problem of CDi's animation where the characters were too all over the place.
Acting is also shit where CDi's voice cast was full of good hams.
>she actually is a fricking lesbo
>with what might be one of the ugliest fricking character designs in the game (and I'm including the green ogre)
jesus christ at least give her a hot chick to carpet munch and not that fricking inbred betty boop
It really makes you wonder who or what force made the dev include that kind of shit
Like let's imagine a parallel reality where she and Dale are both playable characters
Maybe there's an ending where they romance a princess, or even each other
Instead this game completely tosses that idea out the window. What is even the purpose of the adventure
good lord these "panorama pictures" at the start are some of the worst eye-rape I've seen in years.
the only time the animation comes even close to the original is the Fairy scene at around minute 13, and even then it's a shitty low frame rate.
The only good YTPs are ones that use Spongebob as their main source. There. I said it.
I think you mean King of the Hill.

If bad designs are the point then why do all the designs in Zelda CDI ooze charisma and are all very well liked?
they are liked ironically. if cdi zelda didnt exist and you told me that was the king id call you an idiot but since i've spent 20 years staring at him and laughing at his funny jokes i love him
The colors palette is silly sure but the king is pretty cool

Absolute chad

he was so hungry he could eat an octorok
It's true, The legendary hero was available but like a real chad he decided to take care of himself first.
even better that he leaves link behind to go sort stuff out himself in gamelon

>He treats Link as a son, calling him “my boy” and including him in royal conversations. Harkinian doesn’t have to be so kindly to a peasent, but he respects Link’s courage.
>Has a sense of humor, even though Ganon had him and Link imprisioned, The King was able to laugh it off and celebrate with his daughter just moments after her victory.
>Offers to talk about mercy with Duke Onkled after he has served his sentence, implying that he is not above forgiving the transgressions of his enemies. He doesn’t let a grudge sway his actions, and is very just.
>Despite his confidence in bringing the triforce of courage to aid him, he still makes a backup plan to have Zelda send Link should he not succeed. He is truly thoughtful of his actions, and does not go into danger foolishly.
>Does not let indecisiveness hamper him, telling his reluctant daughter “Enough”, that his ship will sail in the morning. His authority is well-established and none would say otherwise on his final decisions.
Oh yeah? Why wasn't he a playable character then?
He was playable in Return to Gamelon.
he is in my modded version of smash bros brawl
Ironically he is the best king in the zelda series.
I can't see him as anything other than a goofy selfish butthole after watching too many TYPs.
Also, he's not a vain butthole who's frivilous with the kingdom's riches. Consider Duke Onkled, he's wearing a golden crown, ermine fur and is covered with golden israeliteelry with precious stones.
The King just rocks a tasteful, minimalist crown that symbolizes the Triforce. His robe is fairly simple as well, certainly well-made and beyond the reach of the peasentry, but not overwhelmingly so.
His crystal goblet is probably the most splurgy thing he owns and honestly the dude deserves to own something really nice.
>I wonder what's for DINNER?
Oh boy! I'm so hungry, I could eat an Octorok!
>this is a man that knows what he is about
But he doesn't know what's for dinner
He has too much to worry about to care about planning the specifics of dinner, only that it is there
i love zelda's design.
the king's design is weak, serviceable, but wouldn't call it bad, just meh.
im sure arzettes design is unintentionally shit
Theyre liked because they are unintentionally funny, the same reason people like the room.
The CDI designs are so bad they loop back around and become charming, Arzette is simply bad and doesn't have any ironic appeal to it because it tries too hard and ends up missing the CDI designs soul.
I unironically like the CDi cutscenes and voice acting, they are charming unlike the bland slop we have to suffer nowdays.
Its nice to see somebodies passion project (the dev spent 5 years remaking the original cdi zeldas) instead of just another metroidvania, deck builder, roguelike thing.
>is good because is ripping off a different game
>>is good because is ripping off a different shitty game
FTFY
>implying you can't rip off a shit game and make a masterpiece with it
people was expecting at least a decent wonderboy clone.
Its good because the dev did it because he wanted to, not because he thought it'd make him rich.
I get sincerity is poison to the modern internet goer, but thats more of a (You) problem.
it's admirable that he went out of his way to make the game he wanted, but he won't be praised simply for doing so. a shitty game is a shitty game no matter how faithful it is to its source material
this only works when you make it better than the original game in some way.
see: rebel galaxy outlaw vs wing commander privateer
Arzette and CDI Zelda a cute
I only found out about this game because of Vinesauce. Still never cared enough to watch it though.
I watched for about half an hour then stopped because it feels like its trying too hard and not hard enough all the same. I watched his full CDI game playthroughs though.
forced kino is not kino
YTP is just how the new generation of zoomie editors make their videos.
i don't think so
saw a few minutes of the game and the cutscenes don't have the ugly yet strangely fluid animation, those really odd yet interesting camera angles or that thing where it looks like the characters are being wheeled around on a cart back and forth into the camera.
the dialogue doesn't capture the feel of the CD-i games at all either. too verbose, too coherent. not very funny to make YTPs of.
I sure as hell hope not.
You Gankers have any favorites YTPs?
Followed cartoonlover98 for a bit before he nuked his channel.
EmpLemon’s YTPs were godly until he got rid of them all and started making shitty video essays.

His video essays are good though. They're definitely a cut above of the normal schlock where someone spends an hour or two talking about nothing. I get someone who liked him for his YTPs would feel alienated, but that doesn't mean he isn't good at what he does now.

my favorites by far were from a channel called Darkssjshinji but they deleted all their videos long ago
1-800-NO-DRKES
Btw. How is YouTube Poops nowadays?
still heavily dependent on the actual creator for whether they're any good or not
my favorites remain the misadventures of skooks and spinge binge jailerbo is one of the funniest fricking people on the planet i'm thoroughly convinced he's also trolling people here constantly on /misc/ topics while being a dyed in the wool transsexual too
In terms of sentence mixing, anything by FishmanJishman or QuibbyJibby are great. Here's two I like coming back to:
This thread just made me discover Helion Hero got his account nuked and I don't think it was archived anywhere, frick Google
I don’t care if Arzette doesn’t have the “soul” of the original CD-I games, it’s a modern day tribute to those titles and I’m going to love it just as much. Also the Princess herself is hot even with the jank artstyle.
Disgusting.
>dude who flat out admits he will eat liquid shit even if he knows it doesn't contain the elements that made what it is piggybacking off great is also a braindead footgay moron
figures
this is revolting, holy shit.
i wonder how anyone can enjoy this.
Jej
Here's what I don't get, why the absolute frick if someone was going to make a footgay image for Arzette did they not base it on the actual hand drawn art like the stuff from the intro? It comes off like someone using the intentionally janky CDI art to disguise their own inability to actually draw this.
As a footgay I can safely say that this picture is absolute garbage.
imagine the smell
>Sexually moronic homosexual has the worst take of the thread
to no one's surprise.
>These replies
Damn, didn’t know the bait would work THAT well.
FRED FRICKS? FRED. FRICKS?!
this game feels like it was made by a troony
It was, trust me.
Only watched like a minute of these in total (because they're clearly rotoscoped), but the protag seems so sassy. None of Link's charm or Zelda's sociopathy.
How do you do a worse job than a bunch of clueluess russians on a shoestring budget?
This game makes no sense to me.
Did the devs not realize that people don't like the actual CD-i games themselves? It's the cutscenes and what they spawned that people care for.
This game effectively has nothing to sell itself on because its main 'hook,' being the CD-i style cutscenes, can be found on Youtube in seconds.
And then what's left? I've scrolled all the way to the end of the thread, not a single snippet of gameplay posted. There is nothing else, because trying to sell someone a game based on things that are infamously shit on their own is a fool's errand.
It's almost kind of sad.
The original games were "Zelda 2 with shitty controls", so a game that fixes those control issues fills a niche for weirdos that want more of Zelda 2.
zelda 2 at least had some momentum to the movement, arzette is more like a worse shantae imo
This "game" really isn't worth the energy. It's shit, we all know it's Woke crap, move on and just show it apathy.
They’re not like Zelda 2 at all
god I wanna raw this creatures tight butt until she's gasping and shivering on the ground
How is there no art yet of this literal SEMEN DEMON?
>no art
Look harder, there's only one
>monarch gives up throne and claims the land belong to the citizens
explain how this wouldn't result in an immediate era of feudalism
Wait, does she actually say socialism in the game?
She says 'Democracy' in the cutscene.
It's telling that I had to check.
I wouldn't have put it past them if she actually did say socialism. You just never know these days.
>Someone took my moronic ass observation spergout on KF of her enacting "Democracy" and turned it into a shitpost
I feel honored as well as embarrassed.
Post the spergout
No, you gotta' find it in the Vinesauce thread.
>vinesauce
Nah, not gonna bother then
I just b***hed about the game's confused tone/writing and that particular """plot point""" took me by surprise, on top of me being a moron, thinking "Kingdom now belongs to everyone" = Socialism.
It's likely just my ego going "Hey I recognize that!" because there's more than likely several people who've thought the same thing, but as a joke/shitpost.
I love Surf Ninjas.
How come soviets can produce better animation than western socialists?
I've gotta get some birthday art done first but I'll take a poke at her afterwards
This needs the cutscene of her drinking the oil. The way she sounds after drinking it and her and filling up the screen with smoke left me feeling some kinda way.
This b***h desperately needs someone to draw her like
I'll draw feet but not like that.
I have standards.
Draw them however you like. Just be sure to draw them period, so that I may then fap to them. And draw picrel's too while you're at it
Ignore what
says, just make sure those feet actually look good.
Wait are her tears oil? I bet she tastes like an engine dipstick. You'll lift your head from between her legs and look like those oil-soaked oil well roughnecks.
I wanna make demi-humans with her

I'm going to frick this cat and rub her foot paws and no one is going to stop me.
not if I frick her first homosexual
No, you can have the Fentanyl Fairy. Cat Creature is MINE
This game is a result of someone's autism taking a joke way too seriously.
Women are not funny, much less le affirmative action legacy protagonist
This image of Arzette. I would like your opinion on it.
Cute
cumable
Equestria Girls character
really wanna jerk off on it
good reaction shot of me taking out my dick i think
i'd change her nose. i don't get the intention of wanting her to look so e-girl. Im sure the people behind it hate e-girl as well
Reminds of Dave the Barbarian for some reason.
She cute
Why is she wearing a slice of 1-pepperoni pizza on her forehead?
made for tributes
her design is ugly as sin and yet I still want to see porn of her. frick I hate being a coomer
someone post the mega link
Artificial and forced. I hope it’s ridiculed and quickly forgotten. I bet it was developed by some sexually ambiguous homosexual
Anyways, right now The Sopranos is the primo YTP material
the only way this game could have worked is if they had resisted the millennial urge to force the joke as hard as humanly fricking possible. before YTP the CD-I zelda games weren't really considered funny, like people laughed at the cutscenes and voice acting but they were largely treated as garbage. it wasn't until people on youtube began fricking with them that the games became 'funny' and not 'garbage', and that was because of the effort of all the people making YTPs. nobody ever played CD-I zelda like 'oh man hahaha this shit is so fricking funny! i gotta keep playing just to see what happens next!' but the arzette devs appear to believe that was the case. so this is a game that was made bad on purpose with cutscenes that are bad on purpose by people who aren't funny, who don't understand what was funny about the thing they're trying to copy and which isn't suitable material for YTP, the thing which made the original funny to begin with. arzette is a joke told by an idiot, full of desperate nostalgia, signifying nothing.
What went wrong is that they didn't go the extra mile and have Arzette be an interactive YTP. The fact that guys like Jimmy Davis and Vinesauce worked on it but the end product is mostly free of glitches and shenanigans is a huge missed opportunity. There should have been an unlockable mode which scrambles the cutscenes, mixes sentences or fills the screen with effects, that would have made a lot bigger impact and inspired YTPs as well.
What's hilarious is that the microscopic amount of YTPs using Arzette have to include Zelda CDi and other memes to be funny, the game itself has next to nothing.
They had fricking WalrusGuy on this and all they had him do was animate Arzette on a zipline.
You're kidding.
It's the truth.
The 5 second zipline scene can actually be found here.
The timestamp, 779, cuts right to the zipline thing
>Will Arzette bring upon us a new era of YTP?
No when it is done intentionally, it isn't as fun.
Curiously I was just watching this.
interesting insight of how the games where made, it makes sense why the animation was so weird, the guys where soviets.
Problem with Arzette that I can see is that the animators didn't understand that the overt fluidity of the CD-I animations is what made them uncanny. Link's face boils and bubbles when he talks like he's made of a fine jell-o. Zelda's face routinely changes proportion and shape when it zooms and pans.
And the thing is: I think the only way to replicate this art style is to be a designer in a slavic country around the time the wall fell because most slavic animation just looks like this. That's how they did things behind the iron curtain. Trying to replicate it but not replicating the loving animation just results in something that is missing a lot of the humor that the animators themselves were aware of.
yeah, Arzette is under-animated while the cdi games were over-animated
this + making her a lesbian with a gross looking girlfriend makes the game lose charm for me
>a lesbian with a gross looking girlfriend
had to look through the cutscenes for her
what kind of fricking cabbage patch kid ass troll doll monster is this creature
what the frick
Did they get the character designer for Big Mouth to work on this game?
Where are that womans wrists, what is wrong with her mouth.
It feels like any shitty cartoon or indie game with a lady protag nowadays has to have SOME lesbian flirting and blushing and shit in it and it gets tiring to see it so many times
Thanks for the gif.
I collect as much animation kino as I can.
BACK INTO MY ASS, BOOKWORM
I am meme is sadly underrated, though I understand it since its not based off something that already existed like Mario and Zelda
he doesn't have as much material either. I mean Zelda is lucky to have 2 games worth of content
The old man was based.
>we want the rick and morty audience
I think the other uncanny part is the voice acting
It's too crisp, they should have added a filter over it to match the CD-I quality or just record it off a CD-I, people forget it's a music/media player first and you can just pop in anything with matching format and it'll play.
he kinda sounds like an elderly dr. orpheus from the venture bros
Maybe I'm wrong in thinking that the animation here isn't bad, it looks wrong because it's at a silky smooth 2 frames per second
KEK, thats fricking Audi's voice from Digital Foundry
I think they should have got former Newgrounds animators who were very talented with animutations to just animate it and put a pixel screen over it than trying to copy an art style that maybe they weren't very good at animating.
Why do millenials love forcing le democracy into everything
They're all still buck broken by Orange Man
Many of the cutscenes cheat with fairly obvious 3D render traces, which are far too rigid to emulate the look of CDi's infamous cutscenes.
I've never animated shit in my life besides some sprite in high school and I feel like I could have done a better job
I don't like this game, and not just because "brown people", female lead role" or the homosexuality in it. No. It's the fact it's so pretentious and unsatisfying.
Not for me, but make your own choices.
>what's for DINNER, sexy BOY
>my pe-nis!
>YES!
It's kinda hot to picture the ending of this one with a bunch of ugly fat bastards and twinks and Zelda just comes and undress and get potentially ganged by everybody including her buttfather.
Why does everything need to be made by and for lesbians? I genuinely feel like I have no space of my own to dream about a better life.
transbians, you mean
Homocentrism and its consequences have been a disaster for media
You know how people complain about "Safe horny"?
Well Gays have a thing called "Safe gay", they instead have two hot girls being gay because very few people are going to be against that.
I can't think of a single game with a gay male protagonist who is openly homosexual. Even if you help out other homosexuals it's just "here's two homosexuals" and you never get confirmation they like to do butt sex.
Dion from FF16 could've been that. Also despite being gay he was the best character because he had a character that's beyond what his orientation is. Everyone else is essentially that simpsons meme of Clive not being around.
>You know how people complain about "Safe horny"?
The only complaint is that dumbasses use it as a term
Its funny how you kinda just know any indie game with a female protag is gonna have lesbianism. You know why of course, to appeal to MTF trannies who want to pretend to be little girls and date other little girls
is this the game that feminist frequency was pitching? that image game me flashbacks to that.
That looked way worse somehow
No, because it's not nintendo.
I don't like the lesbian character angle because it reeks of Dobson lesbianism. CDI link had only one unwanted advance of a fat ugly lady and that's pretty much it, it's a joke. Arzette's been hit on like, 8 times by different NPCs.
The only way to tip the scales is to drop CDI Link into Mon-Musu / Monster Girl Quest, and play it straight, and it'd be even funnier
i think they did a good enough job on the cutscenes.
ultimately, also like the originals, this is a game that sells itself on its cutscenes. you buy it and play it so you can watch the cutscenes.
Why would you buy a game for the cutscenes when you could just watch them for free on youtube
good god is that what the game actually looks like? thats fricking lazy, say what you will about zelda cdi but those backgrounds looked awesome
>rotoscoped 3d models
Please stop doing this
I'd have preferred they rotoscoped real actors honestly
wouldnt have been true to the cdi style but it would be funny
A live reenactment of the CDI Zelda games would be kino.
>Black person dyke mc
Fricking really?
yeah I can deal with one or the other, not both at once
>brown hair
>green eyes
>deep brown skin
this thing reeks of envy
Not to mention they made the Link stand in EXTRA stupid and lame and beat you over the head with how incompetent he is.
No, it doesn't emulate the cdi animation well at all
>mfw watching Vinny being forced to sit through all the LGBT shit with him just sitting there awkwardly in silence while his chat spams pride shit.
Is Vinny secretly a chud?
>sewer rat game
>rats say what chat is posting
>vinny reads all of them
>except the one who says trans rights
>f-zero 99
>vinny is playing
>f-zero car named "trans right" appears
>vinny says "just ignore it chat"
I don't think vinny HATES troons, I think he just doesn't want to engage with them.
there is a difference, even if the troons don't think so.
he knows if he gives an inch they'll completely take over, so good on him
pretty obvious vinny doesn't hate them outright but he wants to stay out of it for obvious reason. dude just wants to play video games, stream and enjoy it. he already got into hot water once because of bullshit accusations.
I keep forgetting about that
it was ridiculous because even if we assume all of it was 100% true, all it proved was that vinny fricks
good for him
Dude needs to stop fricking crazy fans though. I get it, he's not a commitment kinda guy and it's easy pussy but he's a handsome and funny guy, he can easily frick less crazy women if he tried.
Was it even a crazy fan I thought it was just gpm going nuts and faking evidence
Funny you trannies always resort to that so you don't have a nice day for your heckin' sadboi being mean to trannies.
What. The. Heck!!! Now I must stop watching him!!!
>playing Mario Maker

>he begrudgingly acknowledges them, does
>”are you happy now?”
>immediately closes it without liking and moves on
>on KFs someone even has a super old clip of him playing Grezzo, he sees a Divine Poster and goes “isn’t that the John Waters troony?”
i remember him playing some game with keypads and he put in 1488
I almost vaguely remember some time he was reading text in a game the word trainer or tyranny appeared and it he read it as troony before he immediately stopped, paused, chuckled and restarted the sentence
Also whenever “ack” appears in a game about 5-10 chat members all spam ACK! including myself
>chat members all spam ACK! including myself
i do too, whenever i get to watch him live
>>”are you happy now?”
closes it without liking and moves on
this is fricking awesome
>that time he was playing Lewdle and actually entered “dicky”
Trannies in chat got so mad, even though its what they want
He's secretly based, but imo I feel like most people around his age just don't take politics too seriously, after a decade of 9/11 and terrorism jokes on the internet and in movies, you become indifferent to something miniscule like gender identity, the 90s and 2000s taught everyone to not give a shit so seeing people sperg out about the small stuff is jarring
It's not about taking politics seriously. Some of us old farts check out because we've observed this circus long enough to know that associating with morons on either side of any social or political topic will only lead to suffering and anguish for yourself. At some point in your life you will need to focus on yourself instead of the myriad of issues in the world that cannot be fixed until you genocide everyone below 100 IQ.
Yup, you only have so much 'righteous fury' in you before you just shrug, take the grillpill and not engage with shit you find stupid.
absolutely, did you not watch him back in the early 2010s? these days he just doesnt say anything because all it takes is one angry troony (which his chat is infested by) to completely ruin him
he used to post his streams in Ganker actually
>Watching Vinny
>At all
>In this day and age
The only times he's tolerable is when he's tired from band practice and playing a casual game to small talk over. Otherwise it's horned up Zoomer Humor.
yeah but still tolerable unlike a lot of other streamers and youtubers
Not anymore he isn't.
He's another oldguard turned whacky Himbo for terminally online Tumblrinas to latch onto and use as their personal Jester while projecting a parasocial e-relationship on top of appealing to children and irony poised Zoomers.
Once you realize this, watching his streams feel inorganic and forced when he's not somber/tired.
TL;DR Ban Women, children and Zoomers from the internet
yes i would be lying if i say he doesnt make me cringe from time to time but i still enjoy watching him from time to time, since i dont like what he streams lately (for the last 5 years)
i think you're coming to the realization that vinny was always a silly guy and he's now distanced himself from "Ganker" as an audience coupled with the fact he *has to* sanitize some things to remain on twitch, and also you came to this realization like 6-7 years ago
Him not "appealing to Ganker anymore" has nothing to do with my b***hing. The patterns of his meme obsession and trend chasing are still present because it's baked into him, but his self-control of his persona has gotten worse and worse since the allegations. An occasional "LE BASED" moment from him isn't enough to change that he's dumbing himself down further and further to their level.
Can't imagine the stats between Millennials vs Zoomers/Alphas in his audience is now, it's probably 40/60 - 70.
Hate to break it to you but just about every streamer and youtuber is as fake as the WWE. They have to be in order to make sure their content is as accessible as possible. Recording videos on the internet stopped being genuine the moment people realized they could make money off of it. Then it just became TV but with a parasocial twist.
Vinny isn't "fake", he's a people pleaser. He needs to shit talk his chat more often instead of humoring their low quality buzzwords and meme spouting.
Since when does vinny ever come across like a himbo now?
If that was the case he would be playing undertale or shin megmai tensai despite thinly saying the games are not for him
For a game that tries to rely on that CDi YTP nostalgia, it really doesn't seem to understand them. I wouldn't be surprised if it came out that these people didn't really care that much about them and wasted years of their lives trying to replicate them since they didn't believe in their own ability to make anything original.
if I believe my youtube feed page, the future of youtube poops is a brony with a self insert that dates barefoot zelda all the time
Buy an ad
>strong brown woman
yep it's indie garbage
the not-morshu shopkeeper is the most insultingly pandering aspect of the project. put your own spin on it, or don't call your derivative tripe "art".
"arzette" is a pretty bad name and feels like it was chosen because it starts with a and thus appears early in a search
Real talk, when has a spiritual successor actually lived up? I feel like it's an immediate turn off if I can tell that an indie title is blatantly just trying to be another game.

honestly I firmly believe Shovel Knight surpasses its inspirations
I do think it's better than Ducktales but not better than Mega Man on average
Spectre Knight meanwhile clears most of Zero's gameplay in the PSX Mega Man X games
King Knight is a lovely love-letter to Wario Land

Is the game fun to play though?
no
the game is a sluggish and unsatisfying platformer that has no value other than the cdi gimmick
Literally just The Owl House x Zelda CDI crossover fanfiction.
This is unironically one of the most artificial things i have ever seen, not a single ounce of love or passion was put into this and you can fricking tell
just like every "dozens of animators reanimate something" collab on israelitetube. Complete garbage.
I like those. Those can be funny and cool. Especially the ones that change on a shot by shot basis.

Completely missed the point. Maybe the game itself is fun but they totally whiffed on the humor.
Arzettes entirely personality is
>wow aren’t these guys wacky
This kills it completely. Arzette should be part of the wackiness, not some eye-rolling bystander.
Flawless strong woman is the worst archetype in existence. It ruins everything, even Gary Stu is more tolerable.
Why is this so common today? Where the joke is that things are wacky and the character knows it

It's so you don't have to commit to the bit. If youre afraid your jokes are unfunny it's an easy out to have one of your characters roll their eyes and go "eeeerrrrrm okaaaaay".
funny given people love committing to a bit of being violently insincere (i.e. vilepluff or tony zaret)
Losers think it makes them cool.
Getting the public to think spandex wearing super heroes was basically a psyop. Part of that was having the heroes aware of the silliness but 'being above it all'. So yeah everything around them is corny gay and cringe but hehe THEY aren't and they're cool because of it.
Iron man 1 was fine because his 'costume' is a mobile gundam so it's badass
Batman begins was cringekino

The gameplay is slightly improved the CDI Zelda games, but progression? It's just as bad.

No. It's moronic feminist propaganda based on a terrible dogshit game. Only the absolute biggest gays care about it.
where is the appeal here?
there is none
Why no gog version?
Adding to the reply count.
There's no reason this thread to remain up for 12 hours.
this is what i would define as forced souls and a forced meme on top of that
No because it misses the point of why the CD-i games made for great YTP material. It was because they were 100% genuine but executed in the weirdest way possible. Meanwhile this is entirely self aware and parody.
lol not in a million years, but you know zoomers will try and force it
What is this again ?
Forced meme game for people who neither play video games nor care about said meme its referencing

All indie games are troonycoded.
You guys can't trick me! I played Arzette and thought it was a fun game
