GAME IS NOT A CULTURAL PHENOMENON
THEREFORE IT IS SHIT

i'm considering getting this game just because of how many fucking annoying grifters are hating on it over basically nothing

10k players at once every day isn't bad. Particularly for a smaller production.

That being said, I don't know anything about Mina the Hollower.

@Jens_Rasmussen made by the same people who made shovel knight
it's inspired by gameboy zelda
looks fun, not 100% my type of game but you know, i would give it a shot.

@beardalaxy it’s a really good game tho very tough and unforgiving so be warned if you don’t like that kinda thing. It has already outsold shovel knight btw (tho ofc indie games are a bigger market now so it’s relatively not doing as well as like silksong or balatro)

@KaiserKitty how would you compare the difficulty to shovel knight? i remember raging a little bit at it lol, felt like classic nes difficulty but i still liked the game.

@beardalaxy way harder then shovel its like controls of the gbc zeldas but with them openness and lack of map with Zelda one. Shovel knight is very easy compared to real retro games, too Nintendo opium for my tastes. Mina is more hardcore and Freeform.

There are ways to make the game easier via explicit easy modes which remove achievements (this is making liberals seethe lol) or, like souls, using specific builds or upgrades to make the combat easier.
@beardalaxy i still don’t understand why people want it to fail so much
@beardalaxy the other day i saw a video by some guy complaining that they delivered on all of their kickstarter promises despite it taking a lot more money than they raised, and also gave extra rewards to the backers for free, which is the weirdest reason to hate someone
The devs donated to blm, it looks like a nice game tho, worth pirating

@minimay @Inginsub along with almost every relevant dev out there. at a certain point you just have to enjoy shit.

food is a finite resource, while video games can be copied infinitely
trve, but u don't need to give them money
Yes there was another poast on here the other day, apparently the game features the homosexuals as well. So perhaps avoid supporting them for that reason as well. Thank you friend.

@bebe @Inginsub @minimay surprised i haven't seen that anywhere if true, usually that would be all over the place but the only thing people can get outraged over is that the game has cheats or doesn't have a lot of players.

@pettanko @Inginsub @bebe @minimay i see :thonk:

although what are the chances it's a female dwarf? lord of the rings' female dwarves have beards, for instance. the pink text and color of the character would lead me to that conclusion personally, unless there is more info.

tho it would be worth asking if those dwarves actually got genders and aren't all just asexed with male appearance (think the way that the namekusejin from dragon ball work)

@EdBoatConnoisseur @Inginsub @bebe @minimay @pettanko the pink one even has like, twin tails or buns or whatever you want to call them. bit more of a feminine hairstyle despite the baldness.

The word fiancé here implies the pink one is the boy too. Perhaps you should mod the game to make them not the gays at the very least. Thank you friend.

@bebe @Inginsub @EdBoatConnoisseur @minimay @pettanko either way, to me it's such a huge non issue lmao. these are two side throwaway characters and if people give THAT much of a fuck about it i think that's retarded lol.

i mean i fuckin loved ff16, absolute baller of a game, but this badass is gay so i guess it's shit :peepoShrug:

Oh he should choose to not be the gay instead. Thank you friend.

@EdBoatConnoisseur @Inginsub @bebe @minimay @pettanko yeah that's true, although it has been a long time since i actually saw fiancee being used. most the time i see someone referring to an engaged person male or female it's fiance either way. they're pronounced the same way so maybe people just don't know or don't remember.

@KaiserKitty yeah nigga it's like if you want the achievement you need to actually achieve the thing lol

if i do get it and have to turn on some settings to not lose my fucking mind then yeah i shouldn't get the cheevos lol. i don't really care much about them anyway.
