DirkAustin summed things up nicely, there. All these jests are made in love. Every entry contains at least a smidgen of truth, or it wouldn't be funny, as Perq pointed out.

I've freely lampooned my own actions and attitudes as much as anyone else's. If our game (and our ego) is so fragile that we can't handle a little ribbing now and again, we are perhaps in deeper trouble than even NeroNoah anticipates.


I want to shamelessly advertise the youtube channel of CinemaSins here as it is exactly the same thing as it is with this thread only that the guy rips movies instead of a game. And its always funny how serious the comments below the vids are.

If you want to check it out:



I take it you have nothing against the game, its just ripping it on the basis of the things that are blatantly wrong or outright bad.

I'm just a bit leery of that one - I've seen threads locked for going too far down that road, and I haven't thus far been able to determine how far one can push the subject without incurring the ire of the moderators.

The item definitely merits inclusion, no doubt. But we may already be playing with fireworks, and I don't want anyone to lose an eye. Call it self-censorship if you must. If I can find an adroit way of dancing around the subject, I'll give it a go.



I was thinking from the angle of something people claim when they are jealous, so as not to go too far down that road, just couldn't find a good way to word it.

Excellent suggestion, and we should probably find a place for Burning and Chilled Ground while we're at it.


Burning Ground - The area of ground you avoided running into before you plowed headlong into the mob's ginormous attack.

Chilled Ground - The area of ground you run on because you love the feel of Temporal Chains so much....
Thanks OP, I really lol'd at all of them!!
...except TRADE, that feels so true it's sad...
Oh and I finally found out what yolo means :-)

Or "YOVO", although I edited that out of the final draft.


I thought it was yoco?


Oh and thanks for the credits :)
Btw, might be worthwhile to put those in a spoiler too (as well as the changelog).

So we turned Gorge into a red map"

Your skill of capturing the essence is superb at best.

Peace,

(will keep checking this thread because this can only get better imo :'), if your okay with a bit of jesting that is)

Oh well, fair enough. I'd rather have something like that song "RNG is so cruel to me" than scathing satire. GGG's devs are nice people after all, it feels too mean. Continue your endeavor Tao, :P

I think if the Devs cant take this in the lighthearted spirit it is obviously meant in, we need new Devs. But we dont - they've proven repeatedly to be good people.

#1 rule of official forum boards of every video game ever: use the forums to relay info, gather suggestions, or the rare narrow-focused Poll; but NEVER as "feedback".

#2 rule: Never say the #1 rule in an official capacity. Let some guy on the forums say it, leaving yourself plausible deniability.
