megabonk would have won if it came out at the height of reddit quirk chungus humor
nowadays it has no chance

Megabonk is literally ai generated slop

They took risk of rain 2 and combined it with vampire survivors and made 0 changes

Imagine wanting your work of art topped by a flavor of the month streamerslop
What a cuck

Is your answer ai generated too?

>>723029410
You need more?

>>723029135 (OP)
Why are games that play themselves considered GOTY contenders now?

>>723029565
Yes
>>723029578
Yes its just a fotm streamer slop game you cant even see anything in the game past a certain level

>>723029863
Sorry trannies can't appreciate it.

>>723029135 (OP)
I really don't understand everyone's endorsement of Megabonk. It's like Vampire Survivor 0.4. It doesn't even have half as many stages. characters or mechanics as even release 1.0 Vampire survivor. It's just 3d and has a jump button.

>>723029135 (OP)
Maximum damage

>>723029918
It's POPULAR, and POPULAR means it's good because everyone can't have bad taste, right?
They can and do have bad taste

>>723029918
Games don't have to be complicated to be fun

the butthurt after e33 wins like one pitty award and ds2 cleans house will be so fun

>>723030015
It's popular right now. It's probably going to just disappear from everyone's minds the moment it takes a tad too long for a new update.

I mean shit. Vampire Survivor released a free update with 3x more content than the entirety of Megabonk and it was about a franchise nobody gives a fuck about. SaGa.

Oh well, at least they aren't shilling a AAA game.

>>723030080
It's not even that it's not complicated. VS wasn't complicated either. It's not simple fun. It's brain dead.

>>723029918

Hey fuck you, I was stoked about the free SaGa update
That's at least one person

Loooool
Maximum damage too for this reply

>>723029135 (OP)
Gaining GOTY from who? Dozens of publications give awards out at the end of the year.

>>723030291
The games aren't pretending to be anything other than brain dead slop
It sounds like the genre's not for you and that's okay

>>723030334
Anon. You and I both know nobody gives a fuck about the franchise. No guff towards your appreciation of the franchise but don't delude yourself in believing people generally care about it.

>>723029135 (OP)
>haha we're so humble and quirky!
criiiinge

>>723030436
I have so man Survivor games. Each of them try to do something unique with the formula. Megabonk does actually fucking nothing. It managed to take the formula and strip it further than the simplicity the survivor genre was known for.
It's the exact same thing Triple A publishers do to genre's and trends. Bastardize and simplify them until all that makes that trend good is gone.

>>723030483
Yeah that's why they keep making new SaGa games and remastering the old ones. Because nobody cares. Dummy.

>>723029135 (OP)
megabonk will never in a million years win goty if even Balatro couldn't do it

>>723030483
Series is well-loved in Japan, but I don't think they care that much about VS.

>>723030798
Balatro was at least KIND OF unique. This game is only getting shilled for the meme factor.

>>723029135 (OP)
I like Guillaume
I like Jennifer
I like Clair Obscur

But what the fuck was that as says Lucien? Megabonk is awful. Then I don't like rogue lite thing, it's too weird for me. I swear Guillaume, don't make a fucking rogue lite for your next game. I swear bro if you read this

>>723030730
>keep making new saga games.
That happen to struggle to break 100k sales within a year.
I love that you have a passion for the franchise. Unfortunately nobody else cares. You don't have to validate your love for the franchise to others.

>>723029135 (OP)
He picked this game for this headline because he knows there's literally no way it'll actually win GOTY. Sharp PR instincts on this man.

I'm guessing Megabonk isn't some new age revival of Bonk's Adventure?

holy fuck, literal retards with garbage taste, if this isnt a joke, i knew it, these niggas dont know how to make good games, cuz they cant appreciate them, makes sense since one of the directors favourite games is ff8 lmao, explains why the balance in E33 is so fucking godawful lopsided...in BOTH directions.

>>723031430
Ok, guy, we know the only good games ever made are ultima underworld, deus ex and baldurs gate 1, your taste way beyond our caveman brains.

Hey that sounds interesting, I loved Clair Obscur, let's see what this game is all abou-
>Megabonk is a roguelike survival game where you must fight your way through hordes of enemies and bosses in randomly generated maps. Grab loot on the way, level up your character, upgrade your weapons and survive for as long as you can!
Goddamnit.

>>723030675
It's almost like you're to stupid to see what megabonk did right and you're seething that it's successful for no particular reason. Who cares if it didn't innovate the genre, you don't get hooked and genuinely enjoy a game just because some streamer played it or it's popular. If the game was dogshit nobody would be playing but the fact that they are means you're just a salty retard

>>723032173
>it's good because braindead retards like mobile shit

>>723032318
To be fair, while I don't give a shit about megabonk, I do like the idea of simpler games being succesful again, like in the arcade and NES days.

>>723029918
It's cheap and is loaded with dumb meme references. Tons of people that won't buy more expensive good games are willing to blow ten bucks for a dumb laugh. The game being decent fun is completely secondary. It only needs to hold someone's attention for one day to warrant the purchase in this case. Classic FOTM meme game.

>>723032109
I legitimately thought my roommates were playing Risk of Rain 2 when I saw them playing it

I play nothing but Megabonk as well you just had to make it 3D and fun now go fuck yourself vampire 2D cucks.

>>723032730
The fact you needed it to have a vertical element tells me you easily got swarms and abuse the jump to get out of getting gangbanged.
Tells me you simply sucked shit at the genre in general and require a crutch to suck less.

>>723030424
>retard thinks pretending to not understand what is being said makes him smart

>>723033169
Yea fuck having skillbased options let's just pray to the RNG gods all the way and hope you get good enough rolls to kill the horde before they inevitably swarm you

>>723032109
It's fun.

>>723033593
Positioning is a skill too. One you clearly lacked.

>>723033660
Is vertical positioning not positioning?

Megabonk is fun

I thought Megabonk was fun at first but unlike Vampire Survivors it doesn't really feel like there's incentive to experiment with different builds. The fast characters are just better. There's an ideal tome set up that's exponentially more effective than other options. Your weapon selection actually isn't a huge deal since most are regular projectiles with similar effectiveness.
I literally beat all the tiers of the two available stages over the past few days and don't feel like playing anymore unless they overhaul things.

>>723029135 (OP)
Sorry but this just comes off as inauthentic people pleaser energy. “Look guys! They’re so modest! They DEFINITELY need to win!”

If they weren’t fakers, they would say “of course I want our game to win, but I’m also loving Megabonk so if that wins as well I would be happy”

>>723029410
>Megabonk is literally ai generated slop
What's wrong with that?

>NetEase funded dev says megabonk is better
Time to look for the chinese funding on megabonk

>>723029135 (OP)
holy heck thats so wholesome

People need to stop comparing it to Risk of Rain 2, you're giving it way too much credit. It's essentially tech demo 3D vampire survivors with pylons, and terrible

humor.

>>723029563
He is obviously being humble my dude

>>723034184
>netease funded

Show the proof

>>723029918
2d is just really hard to stomach for normalfags, like turn based combat

>>723029135 (OP)
Fake humility is cringe when it's this fucking obvious.

>>723034404
>Kepler isn't the developer
correct chang. they are the publisher investing in sandfall, and they are in the credits as the publisher
you can strike that damage control line from your company-provided manual

>>723029918
Everyone praises the speed/momentum and movement options. They don't really matter though, you just need to be fast enough to dodge boss attacks and clear DPS checks, just like VS.
The momentum mechanics feel like a diversion.

>>723029563
>devs get asked trick question in interview
>they give a normal and humble answer

>>723034698
This
If he had said like Death Stranding 2 or Silksong, I could believe it. This is embarrassing.

>>723034029
I'm also very offended that they got asked a question in an interview and took the chance to shout out another indie game.

>>723033169
You sound mad. So what, everyone who liked megabonk sucked at vampire survivors? Is that the narrative? Who cares? The game is fun, no amount of posturing about "muh skill issue" will change that fact.

>>723029563
>flavor of the month streamerslop
thats E33 too

Just like E33 then
