Indie gaming website Cliqist explores the current trent of gimmicks in the dating sim genre and why they're becoming increasingly popular.
Some titles out there focus on introducing a bizarre turn in their narrative. Check out this list for some solid recommendations for those.
"INSIDE" was bloody amazing, and I miss Uncharted's sci-fi and paranormal aspects greatly.
TBH, 3 and 4 still have them, but they are heavily implied, which can be terrifying the more you think about it, but it is admittedly, much less scary and less interesting gameplay-wise than what 1 and 2 have done.
U3 did show the Jinn's "bottle" in the end and the city was pretty f-ing dope. Just a little disappointing that they didn't lean just a bit more on the mythical parts of the series. Uncharted is a world rooted in reality and Drake knowing all these mythical stuff exists could've led into something cool.
I remember being particularly confused by the twist in LA Noire where Cole Phelps is sort of "exposed". If you've played it you know what I'm talking about. It always felt weird and odd because the player is Cole Phelps. How can the player not know about these sorts of things happening with their own character? I felt like it came out of nowhere.
Is Twelve Minutes on that list? Because IT HAS TO BE ON THAT LIST!
Don’t spoiler yourself with that humongous twist :D
The Humble Pixel Pride Bundle just launched recently. It has seven games including Celeste, Super Lesbian Animal RPG, Boyfriend Dungeon, and more. A percentage of sales support The Trevor Project.
Well. They should at least put in games that started as LGBT not the tokenism that some of these title later did. Celeste is one such example. A developer later confirms she's trans but admits that wasn't the case before. Therefore the character development there has nothing to do with LGBT pride or anything.
At least put in real ones.
In a world full of funky dating sims, Boyfriend Dungeon fits right in with its wild concept of dating weapons. Move aside Colonel Sanders, I’ve got a hot date with a sword!
