14 Jul 2020She's blaming gamers. Aren't gamers the demographic games are supposed to appeal to? I'm sorry people were two busy playing halo or destiny to even notice your crap game.

14 Jul 2020It says Michael Samyn is creating it. You're reading of the man's Patreon page. Not the woman's. It's possible you may have blamed the the wrong person in this vid when it was likely the man who was offended by gamers for not buying the game. Just saying. Sorry if I sound like a correcting douche.

14 Jul 2020"Fuck games! "Fuck gamers! "Fuck the game industry!" Why these people have made games then? They clearly don't like videogames. And that's why their games sucks.

14 Jul 2020"She wants to make a living complaining that she couldn't make a living" Brilliant! Pretty much describes the majority of people with "Studies", "Media" or "Communications" in their art/humanities degrees 🙂

14 Jul 2020Viscera Cleanup Squad nailed it – you clean things – which provides the GAMEPLAY – but there's an interesting backstory that you discover along the way. It seems like that what Sunset was gong for but failed to deliver anything beyond a preachy backstory – which overshadows The Player. "Show, not tell". They were busy Telling that story when players want to be Part of the experience.

14 Jul 2020I'm one of the few people who got this game. holy hell was it bad. I tried to get moneys worth at least finish it. But like you said you can't. It's not good its not fun or immersive, shit when first got the game I was like well the art style is nice ( I'm sort of an artsy guy )

14 Jul 2020I think developers like this are trying to recreate the Art house Film in Video game form, but they're missing a few important points. No one expects their Art house film to be a successful commercial release. Most people reading this comment have probably never seen an actual art house film, and I don't say that to disparage their mainstreaminess or anything. Honestly, you have no reason to watch these movies and most of them are not what you'd call "watchable". I made one as a film student that starred me sitting on a lawn chair in the middle of a busy street guzzling from a can of beer that got larger in every cut, while the rest of the world around me was zipping by fast motion. Alcoholism = Bad, said in the most convoluted and overindulgent way possible.
The point of an art house film is not so much to send messages, but mainly to experiment in how you use the media to communicate those messages. They cost the price of a few cans of eight mil and three large pizzas at Dominos to make, and take maybe a week of everyone's time, so a return on investment isn't needed. The idea is that when you go forth and make real movies, the DNA from the art house films you've either made or seen will make their way into those projects.
You can't apply this idea to video games though. Even super minimalistic one-environment choose-your-own-adventure things cost a lot of time and money to produce, and require technical skills that have to be hired or acquired, and don't come cheap either way. You need a return on that investment which you can't expect the market to provide. It's ironic that we're talking about two people who claim to hate capitalism, but the main reason they're angry is that the market wasn't buying the product they were selling.
As for Sunset itself, a game like this can have some merit, even if only to serve as an example of how not to handle narrative in a game. If movies are "show, don't tell", then games are about "do, don't show". Sunset shows the player things and tells the player things, but doesn't have the player doing anything. It doesn't even have the player cleaning a house, which can be made interesting if handled correctly. In Sunset you just approach an environmental element, click on it, maybe make a two or three option decision, and the activity is magically done for you while the game cuts away to a wide shot of a poorly rendered cityscape, I guess to indicate time passing. Angela says something snarky, and you move on to the next pile of discarded books or whatever.
Compare to Viscera Cleanup Detail, a game that actually had you physically cleaning up a gore splattered space station after a typical action game had happened some time before. It had you engaging with a frustrating activity within a time limit and left you to have your own thoughts about what it all meant to you. At some point when you realized your mop was now just a blood and gore paintbrush of sorts, and you kick over the last bucket of clean water you had on the level, you might wonder to yourself "when was the last time I thanked a garbage collector, or a janitor for the frustrating and seemingly futile job they do, that makes my work and my life easier? When did I ever thank my mom for that for that matter?", and there you have it more effective social messaging, that actually reaches the player through a frame relevant to their interests, and hey! it was a successful commercial release, despite not being a traditional gaming experience! How 'bout that?

14 Jul 2020Wait, they pretended they like Brianna Wu all along? Shit, how messed up are those people!?

14 Jul 2020If you enjoy story based experiences, where you learn about the world through journals, hearsay, etc., then Sunset was pleasant. I enjoyed it for what it was, in the same way I enjoyed Home Alone and other more story based things like Analog: A Hate Story and Hate+. These things are not for everyone, but they're not 'objectively shit', just not exceptional for the genre.

14 Jul 202011:28 – I love that tweet. In an odd way, it gives me hope. It makes me believe that, outside of this ridiculous, protracted flamewar, there is common ground to be found with pro and antiGG.
Plus it's goddamn funny.

14 Jul 20209:54 I wouldn't pay $30 an article to talk to Gaben. She's delusional.

14 Jul 2020Coming soon from a SJW "game" developer near you; Watching Paint Dry Simulator 2: The Dryening.

14 Jul 2020As with all SJWs they're not responsible for any of their own problems and everything that happens is everyone's fault but theirs.

14 Jul 2020Here's the thing. These people, Lei, Aureia and the likes, had a passing familiarity with gaming but was probably never enthusiast. They had no respect for the medium before they tried to make money from it and just assumed, out of hubris, that they could walk into it and own it.

14 Jul 2020Just think of all the money some dumbass spent on this patreon when they could've eaten like a king of McDonald's dollar menu.

14 Jul 2020What if six people donated 50 per article?

14 Jul 2020what's really annoying or at least weird about the game from playthroughs is the time it takes to roll out carpets. how much time do you really need anyway?
rayco santana
14 Jul 2020Someone should donate $30 to her patreon so she has to talk to you for an hour every month, you can tell her how her game sucks balls for an hour every month. hahahaha

14 Jul 2020While I don't know about this game, The Novelist is a great game about being stuck in a little house and interacting with things. You play as a ghost who learns about a family staying in your home and every day that you play through you have to guide the family through compromises and decisions to help them through a turning point in their lives. The gameplay was minimal, but it did have mechanics and choices and hearing how the story played out because of your choices was fun.

14 Jul 2020so for 250$ per article you can control her subject matter. Any well to do trolls up for it

14 Jul 2020You know when my own parents read her patreon, they thought that she's a lazy shit that hack it. And they don't shit about video games industry.
warhawk9566
14 Jul 2020The thing that she is wrong about, there are PLENTY of games that are works of art, there are PLENTY of games with great stories, there are Plenty of games that are fun and there are Plenty of games that have all 3. Look at Limbo, Telltale games, Journey. I think this game could've been fun if, I don't know, You saw the guy who's fucking house you were cleaning? Or you influenced some of his decisions which ends up effecting the civil war? Or some rebels come to you and ask you to steal stuff from his house? If you did something other than fucking chores and talk to yourself?

14 Jul 2020An SJW tactic is to infiltrate things they hate to spread their fascist ideology and destruction from within. The easy ones to spot are the "games journalists/reviewers" who write a piece that dives into their -isms and warped fantasies after the first paragraph.

14 Jul 2020good video, subscribed.

14 Jul 2020I respect and enjoy the work of many, many artists but I have met a certain type of person who studies art and then becomes convinced of their own amazingness and depth of humanity and talent they have and thinks the world owes them a living even though they aren't providing anything that anyone wants. They convince themselves that everyone else is just plebs who don't get it. This whole project was a failure before they even started because of the contempt they held for their audience. I want games made by people passionate about games not self-aggrandisement. They would have been better trying to sell this as an installation to some trendy art gallery.

14 Jul 2020Is Sunset high art?
You know my name.
14 Jul 2020A woman makes a game on how to do shitty housework. Yup.

14 Jul 2020well.. this person is clearly insane…

14 Jul 2020I've played it, and enjoyed it for around one hour (then was just rushing).
The premise is interesting, and has cool graphics.It became old pretty fast because it's pretty much a pixel hunt that you only get 2 choices (that don't matter much), and the story and the writing is bland.
Why I enjoyed it for an hour or so ? It's different and had potential for a while, but I didn't think it would turn to be so repetitive.

14 Jul 2020The game is more like a fancy doll hose.
The patreon and articles for money is Capitalism. Bizarre.

14 Jul 2020If the carrying capacity for this kind of nonsense has not yet been reached then that point cannot be far off, this is the most cynical take yet on "I have a vagina and I swear the videogame industry was mean to me…honest!"
There can only be so many people who are paying for all of this stuff. I think it's only made it this far and gotten this rediculous because in this specific community the patrons and "artists" are so dyed in the wool Marxist that it seems perfectly reasonable to them to use a crowdfunding website as a means of redistributing their community's wealth among it's members.
It used to piss me off how much many of these crazy e-welfare princesses were pulling in but not anymore. The reason is simple really, these women are a terrible financial burden on a rediculous and declining community that never had much money to begin with. The only reason Leigh and her PR company were influential was because of her position in the UBM Tech corporate hierarchy, without the ability to commit brazen conflicts of interest via that position she's just one more braying idiot in the blogosphere.

14 Jul 2020I love the commentary. It's really intelligent and uncut. Sub.

14 Jul 2020"How do you market that?"
Gone Home did it with it's mundane (lack of) gameplay and was highly successful. Because of the journalists feigning influence, even when it was marketed by them with fake hype, it didn't work. That's what happened. It's less to do with the game but Tale of Tales relying too much on game journalists expecting an easy ride and instead having a post-GG gaming environment turn it away insensitively.
It has nothing to do with the contents, but everything to do with who they aligned with and their lack of foresight and general lack of respect for their audience. If this game came out early last year it would be as successful as Gone Home, but it didn't, then #GamerGate happened, and took their only source of influence.

14 Jul 202010:47 It's "destruction" not "discussion"… which makes it even more pathetic.

14 Jul 2020SJWs are like school bullies basically. They can't function properly in the real world, can't hold down jobs and can't manipulate everyone around them. That's why they end up begging for money on Patreon and Twitter, capitalism is a great leveler.
