What is your opinion on this game?

>>715661330 (OP)
died with Alec Holowka

>>715661502
how much did he participate in the game?

>>715661330 (OP)
It's not a game.

>>715661330 (OP)
It was terrible. Nothing happens for 6 hours. When something finally does happen the game ends.

>>715661330 (OP)
Never played it, have no interest to try.
Not sure what game we're even talking about since despite seeing this character posted over the years I never had enough interest to look up this character that looks like it's from a preschooler's ABC book.

>>715661330 (OP)
Rare example of soul in a modern game.

>>715661932
2017 is not modern tho.

>>715661970
Might aswell be due to cultural stagnation

My opinion is that Mae is a filthy obese fried chicken and watermelon eating nigger cat whore who should be brutally murdered, and that's about it, really!

>>715661330 (OP)
I liked it.

Never played it but its on the backlog

>>715662235
I fucked up my run because I thought you were meant to investigate with Angus, Gregg AND Bea, not just Angus and Gregg or Bea, and in earlier days I didn't hang out with Lori and Germ because I thought that would fuck up my run.

>>715661330 (OP)
A whole lotta nothing with sufficiently cute designs.

>>715661330 (OP)
Cursed franchise

>>715662762
>franchise
>only one game

I wish it was a franchise, I want more mae games

>>715662279
>brutally murdered
brutally fucked more like

gregg route is boring as fuck and it only shows that couples that have nothing in common will have problems if they are together just for only being together

>>715663164
havent played it but theyre the only gays in a small town, its not that unreasonable or uncommon

>>715661330 (OP)
I miss it but it's impossible to discuss it after the musician killed himself for political reasons. Selmers has the fattest ass in Possum Springs.

>>715662762
>>715662814
All of the fan games have immense amount of drama and one of the devs fucking died too. Also the spiritual successor game got cancelled because the lead dev got cancer and was too sick to work on it anymore.

>>715663293
I hate Gregg so much. His entire route is all about him wondering if he's good enough for Angus while being a total shithead who drags Mae down to her worst. Gregg has no redeeming qualities and the only reason Angus fucks him is because he's the only other fag in town and Angus is too nice to let Gregg die in a ditch from an overdose.

>>715663498
>"All of the fan games have immense amount of drama and one of the devs fucking died too."
Which one?

Night in the Woods is just furry YiiK?

>>715662372
What's stopping you?

>>715663836
Skullman777 did some art for Love in the Woods iirc.

>>715664049
Ah, didn't follow that one, just After the Fall, the dev for that one kept arguing with himself on twitter

>>715661330 (OP)
I literally remember nothing other than a contrived finale of townsfolk sacrificing jobless young adults to keep their dying town alive, and that Mae is a doormat loser who’s willing to let her “friends” walk all over her.

Only character I really liked is Angus, because he’s inoffensive. I can’t stand Bea because she let that rude bitch Jackie mock Mae in a public party, she acted like it’s Mae’s fault.

>>715664160
A real shame the devs who took over after the original dev turned out to be as big of faggots as the Love in the Woods crew.

Do you think mae is perceived as attractive in NITW world?

>>715664354
trannies gonna troon

>>715661330 (OP)
Human men

>>715664354
>game has a trans character
>they're a massive cunt and completely unlikable
NitW secretly based?

>>715664931
They actually made her nicer in the updated version.

>>715664408
I think she's attractive but doesn't take care of herself and makes herself look worse than she could look

>>715661330 (OP)
There hasn't been a single living being who was able to muster a praise for this thing beyond "omg she is literally me". Coincidentally, every who has made such a claim is a ow IQ literal faggot. Last person I've heard talking positively about it was Shammy, funnily enough. So my opinion on it is rather negative.

>>715661330 (OP)
Played around the time it came out. I literally don't remember anything other than the ending being some huge reveal and then they don't do anything about it. Figured it was kind of the point, that in the end nothing really changes, but it still was a let down.
But I enjoyed jumping on wires :)

I fucking love Mae and want her to be my friend

>>715664354
>>715664931
There's even a tranny in this godawful game?

>>715664931
Not to mention threatens a woman with physical violence, props for the accurate representation

>>715665715
the issue isn’t with the character being trans, the issue is with the character being ridiculously rude and degrading to the main character, and the MC’s friend is appalled at the MC for not being liked by the trans character.

that’s just one of two scenes, iirc. the other scene had the character essentially stroking their own ego at a bar of some sort, and no one would calm out the character on it. this character’s problem is that it feels like a writer’s half-assed self-insert, not an actual character.

>>715665917
wait, Jackie actually threatened to beat up Mae? the fuck? and why was Bea mad AT Mae rather than Jackie? the more I remember this part, the more I hate it.

>>715666196
>the issue isn’t with the character being trans, the issue is with the character being ridiculously rude and degrading to the main character, and the MC’s friend is appalled at the MC for not being liked by the trans character.

>>715666614
yes, retard, the problem with the obnoxious rude goat is that it is an obnoxious rude goat, being trans or not has no effect on that.

>>715666798
>yes, retard, the problem with the obnoxious rude goat is that it is an obnoxious rude goat, being trans or not has no effect on that.

>>715666614
this webm feels like when you're sneaking in wind waker and the moblin guard suddenly sees you move

>>715666285
yeah, he did, I don't remember that part very well so I don't recall exactly why Bea was upset but I distinctly remember jackie threatening Mae

>>715661776
Shared design, was a programmer and composer.

You can see the other games he worked on, compared to the rest of the team, what they did before and since. Play aquaria.

>>715661330 (OP)
best available friends

>>715661330 (OP)
sex

>>715664931
wait, who is trans? i have no memory of this

I love Lori. I LOVE LORIIIIIII!!!!

>>715670559
the bitchy goat, barely in like two scenes with bea

It reeks of a specifically Seattle based strain of pretentiousness that I find very off-putting

And no, I don't know where the game was developed and don't care to find out

>>715661330 (OP)
I love the comic about her and the lizard lezzing out until the lizard's dad walked in and fucked both, coming in his daughter. That's about all I know about it.

Very comfy game and pirating it is a moral obligation

NITW is so dadfucker coded.

>>715670673
Based Lori enjoyer

>>715672614
Because the devs instantly disowned Alex?

I think even his own sister did which is pretty rough. Wonder what she knew that we didn't or if she didn't like him or was just a sociopath

>>715670673
>>715672816
I vaguely remember that someone was making a romance fan game where one of the romance options was Lori. I hoped you anons knew the name of it so I can look for it?

>>715672925
After the Fall. It's not very good.
Sorry I left it unfinished and wasn't good at writing back then.

>>715661330 (OP)
after seeing /v/ shitting on it for years I actually gave it a go because I got it for free and was pleasantly surprised.

honestly they should have just ditched the whole super natural aspect of it and focused on the relationships with mae and her family and friends and the town. Every main character being fags is a little off putting but the fox saved it.

>>715672661
elaborate

>>715673537
Everything about the game appeals to mentally ill 20 something year old girls who want to fuck their dad.

>>715673019
Thanks for sharing! I am gonna look for it and play it, it doesn't matter if it ain't finished since I am used to that due to reading many fanfics of the mlp variety. Also, no matter how you wrote the romance I am optimistic it will still be sweet/exciting, anons ain't bad with words

>>715672584
source. I need it.

>>715672661
>>715673681
hot

>>715673824
Don't play After the Fall, the devs that took over after I did are all retarded faggots. Another anon tried picking up where I left off but got bullied by the After the Fall devs into quitting. I think it's still on itch.io called One More Night in the Woods.

>>715674074
>got bullied by the After the Fall devs into quitting
nigga just stop looking at the screen

>>715674158
They were threatening legal action lmao

>>715672894
>sister (aka female)
>sociopath
Tautology.

>>715674198
Which would had gone literally nowhere.

>>715674074
Oh, then I hope I am not too bothersome but do you have your version still? maybe? I will heed your words and not seek the current version of it

>>715663981
>BEA, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?

>>715674324
I think the current version is mostly still my original writing up to a certain point, then it gets even worse. Anon's version rewrote most of my stuff but kept the general idea for most scenes but he only got a few days into the story.

>>715661330 (OP)
Only good for furfag porn.

>>715674254
True they had no legal ground to stand on but they were dragging him through the mud on social media with their lies and everyone believed them.

>>715661330 (OP)
trash VN made by loser amerimutts

>>715674561
I guess people are weak
I wish I had time to invest in stuff like this, Id flip everyone the finger

>>715674661
Well it's free and open source so anyone can make their own version, despite what the nu-devs say.

>>715674462
nta, confirm if I hit jackpot. The new administration has problems with romancing Lori or something and makes Mae and Bea more lgbt. Do I win?

>>715674934
Nah, the game takes place a few years after NITW so Lori's in college. The new devs are just incredibly inept and lack any real creative talent or vision. They're still obnoxious lefties who banned me, the former lead dev, when I joined their gay discord to tell them to stop being faggots.

>>715663619
Yep, what pissed me off is the whole bit where Angus 'calls out' Mae for being a bad influence on Gregg when its literally the opposite. Its basically ALWAYS Gregg who suggests the terrible ideas and starts throwing a tantrum until Mae agrees to go along with it.

Also it was kind of weird how Bea's route at least had a scene that acknowledged that Mae probably has some dissociative disorder or something and should probably go to a real doctor about it while it just goes completely unremarked on in Greggs route.

She needs a human bf, that would fix her.

>>715673878
https://e621.net/pools/39984

>>715675384
Gregg's route is like taking the bluepill and Mae becomes a degenerate girlboss who's remorseless in making everyone's lives worse. Bea's route is the redpill where she gets some sense slapped into her and told to stop being a womanchild.

>>715675296
Discord has really ruined so many great projects, I see it all the time with mods. Kudos to you anon for laying the groundwork with a great idea, and wish you better luck with your future projects and your coworkers/teammates/leeches going forward.

>>715661330 (OP)
good

>>715661502
and this unironically

>>715676071
The greatest irony is that I started After the Fall as an open source alternative to the other fan game Love in the Woods. Then the moment I leave they try to block anyone from forking the script and making their own version while they haven't released an update in years. To this day the build they distribute still has the line I wrote in the credits saying anyone is free to make their own version of the game.

>>715661330 (OP)
It's woke gay tranny LGBT trash. I bought it when it came out back when I was less jaded and played like 3 hours of it. Couldn't take it anymore and refunded.

>>715661330 (OP)
Wasn't this the game where one of the Devs murdered the other one and then got cancer or something?

>>715661330 (OP)
sex with selmers

>>715661330 (OP)
It's based.
Libs and lefties memeing themselves into believing being a directionless misanthropic retard is somehow virtuous is what keeps them from achieving political success and stealing my paycheck. Same reason I love Disco Elysium (for them).

>>715676397
That's what I'm saying.

>>715676371
I don't know about cancer, but Alec Holowka, who worked on the game, was fired and then killed himself shortly after Zoe Quinn accused him of physical abuse

One day Ill make a furry game without gay shit in it.

>>715662279
God I love checking these threads to see this schizo

>>715672894
She was running with the gaming sensitivity consulting crowd and had strong incentive.

>>715677119
Wonder if she has enough of a soul left to feel back about abandoning her brother before he literally killed himself

>>715677198
She gets all the money from his soundtrack sales now so I don't think she feels too bad.

>>715677198
>she (aka female)
>has [] soul
Oxymoron

>>715676752
And his bro didn't even defend him?

>>715677398
This was at the very height of "believe all women" so everyone instantly turned their backs on him. Funny thing is the whole thing was a misunderstanding where he refused to pay for her plane ticket back home and she made a big deal out of it claiming that that made him a scary predator. And if you checked out her social media during the time she claimed that happened, she was having the time of her life partying with gaming journos and showed no signs of being in distress.

>>715677398
>
The entire dev team turned on him.

>>715677592
Plus it's Zoe fucking Quinn we're talking about, who expects us to believe that SHE of all people could be in an abusive relationship without any ability to reach out for months.

>>715677792
>The entire dev team turned on him.
They did it in the shittiest way possible too. A few months prior they announced they reached out to Alec to work on the epilogue chapter and they were all very excited. Then allegations come up and suddenly their tone shifts to "yeah we always knew he was a creep! Good riddance, we hated working with that guy!"

>>715661330 (OP)
Non-buynary

>>715663981
It's not as bad as Yik.

>>715661330 (OP)
My love for detective games, and old steel mills got me to play the game. Sadly the interesting part, the supernatural cult, potential latent psychic powers, and their grandfather is not the focus. Instead melodrama is the focus. It's more of a soap opera.

>>715661330 (OP)
Nothing with the cancer known as (((pansexual)))/(((bisexual))) representation is good.
Avoid any video game series with at least one installlment featuring that garbage.

>>715676752
The only thing wrong with this is that the other people who were involved in the creation of this game are still alive.

>>715676752
she said he raped and hit her, then said it was just rape, then said he just hit her, then just that he was being weird around her, then just that he is weird LOLLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO

>>715678206
This is sexuality in the year 2X00 and it's beautiful

>>715661330 (OP)
I was legit too retarded to figure out there was sidecontent and kept wondering why half of the game was the wierd dreams

>>715677592
>>715677792
So they basically murdered him by throwing him under a bus?

>>715679361
Murder is an exaggeration but they knew he was suicidal and they made a public announcement that they were firing him because he was (in their eyes) probably a rapist. Despite just finishing making a game about a heccin adorbs queer cat girl who attempted to murder a middle schooler but got redeemed through the power of friendship.

>>715679361
Depends on how culpable you think someone can be when a mentally disturbed person kills themselves as a result of their behavior

>>715679918
Weren't leftists trying to make suicide victims' bullies accountable for murder a few years ago? How quickly they shut up when they're the ones on the other side.

>>715679565
>>715679918
>Shout "FIRE!!!" in a theatre
>A tide of people rush towards the exit.
>Several are killed in the crush
>It's not my fault, they didn't have to run.
>Besides, the woman next to me said there was a fire, and whilst yes she has said this multiple times now and there's been no fire, how was I supposed to know?

>>715680173
Alright, genius, my coworker is dangerously mentally unstable and I think she already tried to kill herself already

If she gets fired and kills herself is someone else responsible for her suicide?

>>715680286
Depends what she gets fired for and how much your employer knows.
If it's unjustified hearsay, and your employer broadcasts it to the world and industry she works in so that she'll never work again. Yeah. Absolutely.

I'm gonna play it again
