To a Zoomer you might not think there's anything wrong, but several people have pointed out this is an inaccurate representation of the 90s:

• Most people were already switching to CDs in the mid-90s
• The tape is upside-down and the label is even written upside-down which nobody ever did
• People rarely used the pencil trick to rewind tapes, especially if they have a working cassette player (which in the previous scene to this you can see the tape was ejected from a player that has a rewind button). This was mainly done to fix tapes that got eaten and unraveled by bad players
• The direction and animation is counterclockwise, meaning you're actually unspooling the tape rather than tightening it

If you're gonna larp at least do it right smh

IDK I remember using cassettes and seeing them being sold well into the 2000s, same thing with VHS. They never fully went away over here, and now even some music stores started selling cassettes again.
People seriously thinking that because one place stopped using them early means the whole world did the same smh

 

[Newcomer 42]

You're giving these morons a lot of faith. I recall that meme of a VR 90s horror game where someone put a VHS tape vertically.

 

[Red Dragon]

Timewise when is the game taking place? Because if i see a casette tape in the 90s i expect it to be very old and battered, not almost in mint condition

That's not exactly true, cassette players were used well into the 90s and even the early 2000s worldwide, depending where you live. A cassette is cheaper, smaller and less fragile than a cd - that's a lot of qualities.

You can still find boomboxes with cassette players (and usb and bluetooth functionality!) on any chinese crap site. Cassettes are an easy analog tech, the only drawbacks are the low fidelity of the audio - something that can be considered charming depending on your tastes - and how bulky they become if you collect a ton of them.

The tape being "upside down" can be explained by the type of player: some cassette players are 'upside down', with the magnetic thingy on the upper - or inner - part of the equipment. There's a lot of larping by both 'sides' of the argument.

Rewinding with a pencil is stupid, the player does it for you. Also, larpers forget about the tapes having a side A and a side B like a vinyl disc - listening to side B will automatically "rewind" side A.

All it tells me is that even troons themselves are nostalgic for the days where we didn't have any of them around.

I can't imagine anyone making games about the 2010s or 2020s decades from now.

Youtube shilled me this "Pronoun Palace" trailer:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=Zfn-_mZ7JSQ>That name
>That thumbnail aesthetic
>Comes out right during faggot month
>Roguelike
>"Governent took away your pronouns"
Without even watching the trailer (just seeing the name and short description) it has that heavy troonslop stench.

If the developers had forgone the troonslop it would've made a solid edutainment game (make words to solve certain problems, or finding bigger, more descriptive words to score points). EIther that or they intentionally made it as a pseudo-edutainment game to lure in kids to groom into the troon-cult with parents unwittingly purchasing it for their children due to its façade.

Nah man remember these are the hipsters of hipsters so they were one of the annoying people sticking with the "old" tech because it's more authentic. These are the types with the most punchable personalities ever and from what i keep seeing this game screams at you that it's someone who's personality is more current day maybe mid to late 2010s larping as a "90s kid" from a checklist they got off buzzfeed.

The Gamergate videogame adaptation will be the walking-sim of the year in 2040

 

[Blamo2000]

Survival horror with the art style of a bastardization of Minecraft. Remember the 2010s?

Rewinding with a pencil is stupid, the player does it for you.

I think I used to fix them with a pencil when the tape did not go into its proper place. Sometimes the tape was wobbly. I basically don't know how to describe it.

 

[Chuck 'n Geck]

The 12 fps choppy psuedo-2D jittery bullshit seems to be the next style that troons are going to be circlejerking to death.

I've even seen it paired with the shitty low poly sloppily textured models too. This style is so easy to do wrong and when it's done incorrectly (99% of the time) it looks like absolute dogshit.

Okay, I'm gonna sperg about this propaganda piece in the most vengeful and pseudointellectual way possible.

I feel like for a while, there's been this gayop revolving around finding out how little gameplay one can put into a video game and still get away with it. Combined with the ongoing trend of historical revisionism ("the past is the present"), Mixtape is the absolute apex of that gayop. The ultimate gaslighter, too.

It innovates on jack and shit: it's a quirky hipster coming-of-age story where there's no longer pesky decisions to worry about - and the user input doesn't matter anymore, either. Sings of a "game" that's free on YouTube - and all those tropes have been tried by both Dontnod and David Cage in equal capacity.

The writing is so fundamentally awful the game makes me think of the 2010's more than it does its' intended period, the 90's (especially with that one promo shot with a blank CD-R disc - homebrewed CD's wouldn't be a thing until... mid-2000's, I wanna say), without me even going deep into the plot. Which I feel like I really don't want to. Complaining about this game feels more productive than powering through all of it on YouTube, it's that bad. The premise of the three profaggonists suddenly turning adult come midnight like the carriage from Cinderella already sounds repulsively juvenile to me, too.

And the Into the Spiderverse 2 influence is immediately obvious, especially since both have angry cop dads that you're supposed to boo.

And again, the amount of gaslighting is so severe you can burn a small country in the Middle East just by striking a match. 10/10's across the board, from LITERALLY ANY NEWS PROPAGANDA OUTLET. Shiteaters on Reddit, Twitter and in YouTube comments repeating how much of a masterpiece this game really is, and how it really brings them back to the nineties (which, as an early millenial, makes me wanna bring them back to non-existance). Worse yet, even dramasturbators like EndymionTV who condemn Mixtape's themes, still call it a video game. Endy even downright says that "I don't think it's a bad game, we shouldn't be boycotting it".

Like, nigga fucking bitch.

Mixtape's release, I feel like, is the moment video games as a medium have properly died. Raped to death after years of anal abuse, more specifically. The gayop has finally got its' push through, and now as little as a 5-hour cutscene with optional interactivity is called by everyone but a few fringe noticers a "video game". What's next? How far can we stretch it, really?

I can lug over a CRT TV, turn it on, have it show The Price is Right - and call it a video game.

I can piss in the corner of my neighbour's place (without his permission), shoot a ten-second clip of the pissstain, upload it to a website where you can toggle between video filters on every mouse click - and call it a video game.

I can bring over a hunting rifle to Minneapolis, fatally wound five ICE agents, have it all shot on my phone, upload it on TikTok - and call it a video game, not because it's "a video you can interact with", not because "you clicked on a thing and it makes you feel things", but because "fuck you home nigger, it's a video game 'cause I've said so!"

Now you know why everyone involved in the creation and rampant glazing of this abomination deserves to be genocided. As soon as humanly possible, too. No, not as a joke.

ADDENDUM: No, the "user input doesn't matter anymore" wasn't a joke, either.

Idk man, people have been nostalgic for iPods, the first iPhone, and Windows XP. Unlike some of us would assume, nostalgia idiocy seems to know no merit. It's literally just, "I was a kid back then, so [thing from that era] is good."

I fucking wish mixtape was a movie. Then it would've ended after two hours.

My personal gripe with most goy story games. If it were a comic book, something of a medium it's been "inspired" by, Dustborn would've either been a doorstopper or have entire pages dedicated to nothing but word bubbles.

People are ALREADY nostalgic for the early 2010s, there's absolutely going to be games about the 2010s in like 2030, probably aping all those free minecraft knockoffs of varying quality. In 2040 there's gonna be people making games about how cozy and retro or how twaumatizing and apocalyptic the covid lockdowns were when all they did was watch Dream SMP streams and jack off to fnf mods, EVERYBODY misses being a kid so they're gonna be nostalgic for most of the media around them even if it was total trash. Then again, it may be a little abstract when they reach mid to late 2020s nostalgia because we've pretty much ran out of anything new being made and they're gonna be making nostalgiacore edits of talking to chatgpt or something.

Thing is this kind of thing isn't even just a 90s thing given cassetes are still kinda made but not relev-

fuck beat to it. Still basic functions of a basic ass ejectable cartridge shouldn't be THIS fucking wrong.

Idk man, people have been nostalgic for iPods, the first iPhone, and Windows XP.

Ipods and the first iphone makes sense because the first iphone was an ipod with phone cababilities rather than the bloated nightmare modern iphones are. I still have my old ipod and ipod touch somewhere probably still loaded with the sonic heroes OST and homestuck shit from the respective times both were out. Only one that people really ever clowned on was the ipod shuffle because you literally could not see the shit you had loaded on it which ruined the whole purpose of the ipod compared to cheaper mp3 players. Windows XP had a load of shit about it but the level of shit was nothing compared to windows 11 times.

 

[Chuck 'n Geck]

Funny that, the trailer actually shows a CD, though like I've said in my spergpost, it's...

...a CD-R. A blank one, too. The one you can write on with a sharpie.

Burning CD's wouldn't be an ultra mainstream thing up until maybe the mid-2000's, I believe, which just detracts from... whatever 90's feel Mixtape already didn't have.

Upside-down cassette players do exist, can vouch for that - though if someone wrote their labels upside-down as well, they were a psycho.

In the mid to late 90s, it would be that fat kid that had a CD burner and would first take 30, then 20, and later 10 deutschmarks to burn stuff for you (dropping prices because of dropping media prices).

 

[Toxic BRAAAAP Mask]

But guys, it made the creator of God of War cry! It must be good!

 

[Tri-Tachyon'sClown]

The aesthetic reminds me of that survival horror game where you have 1 arm and you have to do everything with it while rushing to rid yourself of a parasite.

Ah yes, Endoparasitic. It's simple to play but the amount of shit you have to balance makes it way too intense for me sometimes.

But in regards to the gore and injuries damn... This game is pretty damn grusome. Makes the Farcry 2 healing animations look pretty tame.

I've seen someone cover some of the medical mechanics in the game and it's clear that while the dev probably isn't in the medical field he at least tried to research as much as possible. It looks incredibly tedious though, step on glass and you'll have to manually remove what looks like God damn vampire killing stakes out of your foot, disinfect it, then wrap it up, all manually. And that's just physical injuries, there's mental ones too. Get to depressed and your character will start doing shit you don't want him too, eventually self-mutilating himself until he bleeds out or killing himself with the nearest weapon. This is just a few things among the many, many horrible things to happen to your character that we all know "people" will violently masturbate to.
Oh yes, many longtime posters and lurkers both in this thread and other tranny topic threads will realize that everything horrible this game has to offer has-naturally-attracted some of the most disgusting degenerates imaginable, of which the developer most definitely encourages. Some cope going "well you an abuse furries in this game, and said furries were created by humans in the first place to do this dangerous job," but anyone with a brain will know this is just bait for the usual suspects to come buy this game in droves to goon to.

but then it's also one of those games that seem to overload you with information.

It's one of those games that drops you into the middle of it with zero information or help, making dying constantly mandatory to learn anything in this game.

Across the Obelisk

Oh I remember that game, I remember Rimmy playing it years ago and I sort of just forgot it. It looked fun though.

It's like Slay the Spire, if you played four characters at the same time and it had 30 different types of buffs and 30 different types of debuffs, each one you need to remember the difference off.

Ehh, I don't see that problem with StS. It has a lot of buffs and debuff but they're easy to remember and you can hover over one that you don't remember. Most buffs and debuffs are block, energy, and strength related anyway. Not sure about Across the Obelisk though.

It's a bit of a jump since it's only two games, but do furries have a thing for showing lots of information? Or is it just general autism?

General autism, everything has to be shown and at a glance. Autists don't do subtlety or brevity since a lot don't understand it.

Looks like an asset flip of Starbound with shitty minigames and gore added.

Pretty sure I saw some Starbound sprites in it. Funny enough someone else mentioned it too:

Also Casualties: Unknown uses Starbound sprites and somehow hasn't been nuked.

Hot damn, all my rags-to-riches parents could've afforded at the time was uh... an entire hi-fi system, a VHS deck with overdubbing built in and a Toshiba laptop. Yeah, now that I think about it, I was eating good despite objectively living in a shithole.

Could've really used something like a CD burner way back when, though: having a 700 meg hard disk was a little too inconvenient when you're a little shit filling it up with MS Paint drawings and everything.

I just paid the fat kid. Not sure at this point if I ever had a CD burner. I bought a DVD burner in 2005 when building a new PC, and now have five or so of them.
