why has this masterpiece been slept on? i genuinly believe the guy who made it was right most people still dont see videogames as art and just a mindless task to kill time
Why has this masterpiece been slept on...
People on Zig Forums only bitch about dark souls.
>Masterpiece
it was a mediocre turn-based RPG.
What deep message is this game supposed to have?
Never look to tumblr for art style approval.
its a deconstruction of JRPG games but less gay than undertale and way less over your head with it
Because it's a shit game you are only pretending its good to paint yourself as some epic deep connoisseur, but I can guarantee you have not finished this game and likely not even played it at all.
i own it on steam with 50+ hours clocked in
checkmate faggot
stop self projecting your inability to properly play games before talking about them and i bet you a million dollars right here you didnt even play the game and solely based your opinion off the shit you hear on this gay ass website
>deconstruction
I've never watched or played something that used that word to describe itself and wasn't an unfun, boring and pretentious slog.
What masterpiece?
All I see is a poorly written game with a shit combat system and a piece of shit self-insert main character.
not my fault you never bothered to go beyond your own comfort zone and play something thats alot more interesting than the usual AAA shit
Lemonade
Story was trash
>self insert main character
debunked
the main character is supposed to be you the player
>poorly written
better written than any other game out now just because americans in general fear lots of words doesnt mean its bad
>shit combat system
its a deconstruction all jrpg combat systems are shit
>way less over your head
this game takes over explaining exposition dumps to a whole nother level lol
it was eye opening for me you just didnt like it because its the type of game that speaks to people like you
you feel like you got robbed because the game doesnt kiss your ass at the end thats pretty much it
DAMNIT GUYS RUN
>most people still dont see videogames as art and just a mindless task to kill time
This is correct, and most people are very very stupid, but that doesn't excuse a shitty, shitty game.
>zero proof
>zero comments on the actual game
You have never played this game
>the main character is supposed to be you the player
please, I have heard this same shit used to try and defend Raiden.
It didn't fly for MGS2 and it's not going to fly for YUK's self insert main character
You should get a hobby or something instead of making cheap bait threads on Zig Forums
yes and? thats the freaking point you fucking retard
its supposed to be a critique of the average gamer of these stupid games overanalyzing everything
Also less funny, less well written, less engaging combat and less likeable characters. But about thrice as long.
Wow, that sounds like a fun game!
>yes and? thats the freaking point you fucking retard
jesus christ
fuck off nigger
okay sorry you are right
*shows you my gamer identification card and steam account with all my gamer times*
thats not this devs or kojimas fault that you are too retarded to see a clear analogy
i know theres other people like me and this is the only way to meet them i cant possibly be the only person on this world to genuinly like this game
Exactly
> i cant possibly be the only person on this world to genuinly like this game
Then tell us what you "genuinely liked" about this game, instead of just how it's better than everything else because everything else is teh suxxors
Work on your flaws. Be a better person.

you just offed yourself off and i didnt even need to say anything lmao
see thats what i meant with my original post
games cant be art they are just there to be mindless timewasters and i think thats wrong games can be way more than that
also only 13 year olds and edgy teens use fun to rate any game
did you know that not everybody sees the same things as you do as fun? some people have fun throwing rocks against windows
thats why fun isnt really a good way to praise a game
i had fun with this game
by your metric its automaticly good then
always nice to see americans realising their poor IQ and resolving to name calling
before you call anybody else a nigger how about you solve the nigger problem in your nigger country?
>Also less funny, less well written, less engaging combat and less likeable characters.
true.
YUK feels like a game made a guy who doesn't like JRPGs tried to make a JRPG and make the main character look like him.
>still hasnt mentioned a single thing about the game itself
You have never played this.
i already did
I don’t doubt there’s others who like this game, I just question whether they wish to see games as art as a means of justifying their time invested as something more poignant and meaningful than it objectively is, if you want deep meaning go read a book or put time into a skill you’ve always wanted to nurture, games by definition are recreational
YIIK was a shit game. OP is being a contrarian troll.
Only the dev who self-inserted would go to desperate lengths to defend this piece of shit game.
the main character doesnt look like him at all
you never played the game it looks like so why are you even discussing it in a thread?
what do you want me to mention then? you never asked me anything about the game literally just saying the same thing over and over again
its a long ass game and theres quite alot to talk about
i think john blow had the right idea about it
whats the point in struggling with a game if theres no real struggle at all? if everything just feels automated like its just designed to let me have fun? i hate games like that
i want the game to be almost like a person that wants to see me fail and just give up
give me tasks that require me to just wait for real life hours
give me characters who can die permanently without noticing me about that before
i want games to experiment and go beyond giving me just a nice gameplay loop that loses its excitement after a few hours those are the type of games i immediatly forget about
YIIK on the other hand keeps me thinking its a real game made by real people with a real intention behind it
>you never played the game
that is true, it looked like such a piece of shit so I looked up a Youtube Let's Play.
It was as shit as it looked, dropped the Let's Play after 2 videos.
The music sucked
The combat looked horrible with those damn minigames for every single action.
The self insert main character was unbearable as fuck.
but the fact you are attacking critics of the game on a personal level instead of defending this game shows that this game has nothing worth defending.

Regardless of the quality of Undertale itself, it's still better than YIIK in those regards
Also, I know Alex YIIKman isn't a self-insert, that was just a cosplayer they got to promote the game, the character is still badly done as an unlikable protag
debunked years ago but of course Zig Forums is the only place stupid enough to still believe this
>the character is still badly done as an unlikable protag
why, did you unironically like him?
you just say that because hes legit the first unlikable protag a game has had since when?
all other "unlikable" characters i see arent unlikable at all and no games where you can choose to be evil dont count
>"UHH, DO YOU COME FROM AFRICA, CLAUDIO?"
I cannot believe they got away with this line.
I genuinely like the artstyle. I like some of the scenes, especially when it gets trippy. I like some of the music.
But on the other hand, the combat is slow horrendous slog that you have to break, and even then it's not fun. Characters are all boring and do nothing but dump tons of dialogue on you. The story is pretty good in the first half, but it shits the bed in the end and even the dev knows this with their "there are actually thre- no FOUR endings" shit. The story also makes no sense, for example Proto Michael is never brought up again after he ascends and Alex talks shit to him and Essentia breaks rules of the already established universe.
I tried to like YIIK, I really did. But it's a 5/10 game that tried too much and accomplished nothing.
