Mixtape came out yesterday. It's a 2-3 hour long walking sim that features all teenage girl protagonists and preys on 90s nostalgia. It's already one of the highest rated games of the year.
Every review gushes about the licensed soundtrack, which has nothing to do with the actual game. Every review also begrudgingly admits that there is almost no gameplay in this video game.
Oh, and there are fewer than 2k people playing it on steam. Plus it runs like total ass.
Now we just need a series of coordinated articles attacking gamers and we'll be right back where we started.
The elusive Anita emerges from her hole after 10 years of slumber. If she sees a gamer's shadowed we are guaranteed 10 more years of DEI gaming.
It was only couple years ago that feminist frequency shut down. I wish she had stayed in her hole for the last decade.
I mean, they're eternally stuck in 2014.
I like to think most of us here are living in 2026 judging the cost benefit analysis of putting in artificial wombs into robots than deal with feminist indoctrinated western women...
Sometimes I think I'm eternally stuck in 2014 too because it doesn't appear to me that we've meaningfully advanced as a society beyond that hellscape.
We stopped advancing in 1997. We entered a post historical society and dark age when the internet became a household adoption then. It was the singularity. The untethered spiral we are in started there, and gets faster the closer we are to the collapse.
I just watched the trailer. It doesnt seem to be marketed to me and it doesnt seem to be made for me. Its not even a genre I enjoy. Its a meh from me. Every review (positive and negative) read like they are ChatGPT when in long-form.
My major complaint with Anita was she was pushing to take established IP and warping it to the modern audience crew. If they make original content like this and market it that way then its welcome to sink or swim in the market. Was is funded with tax dollars like some other games? Id have an issue with that if its the case.
It was made by an Australian studio, I don't know if they used tax money.
Does Larry Ellison's retarded daughter do anything besides make complete dogshit?
HAHA every screenshot on the Steam store page looks to be from a cutscene, as does both trailers.
Maybe I'm too normie in my musical tastes, but I don't recognize most of the songs, and about half the acts.
I've never heard of it so I looked it up on Steam. That art style is one of the most jarring and nauseating attempts at being being "artistic" that I've ever seen. It's basically that "just because you're unique, doesn't mean you're useful" picture of a bent fork, but applied to character design. Whoever designed the look of this game clearly wanted to be different and noticeable, but instead just made another game with that overdone pastel color palette with misshapen body features and pretend brush stroke shading. You can tell whoever designed it was thinking "fuck yeah, this is gonna look so cool and edgy and special" and it just looks like ass instead.
Also, I looked up this allegedly amazing "90s soundtrack", and it's all faggot music. It's the shit the "quirky" artist chicks who would wear vests with a lot of random buttons on them would listen to and the faggy simp dudes trying to fuck them. They should have used skate punk/ska, but of course no one ever trying to recapture the 90s uses skate punk/ska, because the people who make 90s nostalgia were all artsy fags back then and not actually out doing shit with friends.
No matter what era they're trying to rip off, this sort of shit always only captures the 'lay on my bed by myself listening to vinyl' vibe, because that's the sort of boring and friendless losers the people making this shit always were.
The reviews describe the look as stop motion like similar to "Into the Spiderverse"
Which also looked like ass.
Blegh
Uh... remember how in 2008 a group of people organically realized bankers, I mean, Wall Street was the problem, they were camping outside and demanded... some kind of change. I repeat, a group of people had a subconscious revulsion to speculators so strong that they decided to movilize, but they didn't have any kind of plan, they were too domesticated, they lived in such a good societal period violence didn't even cross their mind. They couldn't identify causes or the culprits so they demanded change, something, anything, motivated only by a hunch, a hunch so powerful it made them go outside. Their movement was then destroyed from the inside by identity politics. Figures like Ketchup were paraded by Colbert
People were mad the economy was the economy was shit, yet, we had one of the best periods in social relationships, they wanted solutions. Shortly after, msm started pushing divisive race articles, then came feminists, then troons. Opression is the culprit, patriarchy is the culprit. Capitalism is the culprit, but don't touch bankers, don't touch speculators! Suddenly, you were the crazy one if you didn't act like Ketchup and the loonies who killed Occupy were common sense. Collective guilt was 24/7 in the news, on the internet, in Reddit, in Youtube.
Gets the noggin joggin, don't it?
She didn't return. Devolver has her on many games.
Anita Shitskezian is enough of a justification it mark this game as ignore.
Plus it also has the alphabet cult tag.
Never heard of this game, not even the people who make fun of these games are talking about it.
The two female leads in this game look absolutely insufferable. The design was meant to be cancer for the male retina. The character types on display were never the 'cool' ones in the nineties.
There is no nostalgia, because this is historical revisionism.
I'm crushing your head!
We shouldn't give such an evil creature, any attention. It makes it stronger.
In 2014, people still kind of cared about what nosering holders in the game press had to say.
Its free on game pass. Meh.
