Is multiplayer gaming completely dead? THIS is what people play now? THIS TRASH...

What? Mafia has been a great game for a long time. This is just a variation of a classic formula.

>Is multiplayer gaming completely dead?
Yes. It's all literally flavor of the month my-eceleb-plays-it-and-I-can-too type horseshit

Your friends all play it too? Ouch. I hope you're still in middle school.
Mafia at least has SOME depth and structure. This garbage is Heads Up 7Up with Fall Guys beans

Nothing like tau cannon jumping, yep

*siiiiiiiiip*

Imagine my surprise that Zig Forums is triggered by a multiplayer game based on social interactions. I'll be sure to be embarrassed about playing Among Us next time I'm fucking my girlfriend's mouth.

Cope, virgin bitch

I believe this post

m8 it's almost a strict superset of mafia

What the fuck are your talking about? Multiplayer is more alive than ever.

Dumbed down to just two roles, like Mafia was already TOO DEEP for some people.

Then you spend your time doing shit like THIS
>You don't like watching the progress bar because you're just a misanthrope!
Yeah that -must- be it.

>This is somehow bad, because it doesn't work as well in other games.

The original mafia also has only two roles and the minigames obscure the screen for a while for good reason.

>I don't have 9 friends

Name 5 good games

>But the original
Nigger we're arguing semantics about a game that already makes Hearthstone look like chess.

You're clearly arguing about a game you have not played.

It's GOTY, easily. Pandemic, quarantine, people losing jobs. And this is cheap as fuck, or even free for smartphones and you can play with your friends, getting some fucking human contact and laughs.

You're confusing me not caring about Mafia with never having played it. It's another boring slog that never amounts to more enjoyment than you would get by hanging out with the same people in any other context. Because it's so irrelevant, it's innocuous. The issue is when garbage is forced to prominence, the bar is lowered for everyone. A hugbox cope for people too shy to get on a video Zoom call, as was said above me
>you can play with your friends, getting some fucking human contact and laughs.

And still you're not making a single argument as to why Among Us is bad. It's almost like you really haven't played it.

It lacks depth in all facets (even the presentation looks like shit), the tasks are insultingly dull, and the insufferable playerbase of this middle schooler's game ironically attributes all criticisms to virginity. It's almost like you didn't even read the thread in lieu of gushing about a slightly less shitty game with no relevance.

>It lacks depth in all facets
It really doesn't. Just because the ruleset isn't complex doesn't mean it can't have depth. Any game largely building on players freely interacting is bound to have a lot of depth just based on that. You sound like the board game autists that hate Catan because you can to barter with other players.

>the tasks are insultingly dull
That's because the actual task is largely irrelevant. As someone has stated earlier their purpose is to put crewmates in a temporary state of helplessness by locking them into the task and obscuring the screen which gives impostors an opportunity to strike. The fact that you complain about a lack of depth yet are unable to grasp this is quite telling.

>insufferable playerbase of this middle schooler's
Get friends, stop playing with randoms. This isn't a fault of the game.

Yes yes we get it, it's mystery mindgames w/ Newgrounds artwork instead of AAA particle-bloom shooting so we're not allowed to enjoy it.
