What the hell does Twee mean?

there is a whole lot of good (and a whole lot of bad) music:

exquisite tea
Apr 21, 2007

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Twee can basically be described as the entire discography of Belle & Sebastian, combining miserablist ironic detachment with bright catchy melodies.

e: It's great.

I heard a lot about Aiden Pierce's sidemission in Watch_Dogs 2 feeling off, and I agree, but no one ever talked about the reward you get for completing it

i mean not that it matters but the designator "twee" really does refer to some extremely specific bands and their style. like Tea said, it didn't start with but was definitely epitomized by Belle and Sebastian, who wrote cheeky risque/depressing lyrics over bouncy tunes. The whole movement can be summed up by their excellent "This is Just a Modern Rock Song":

Yeah I did a little research and acknowledge my error. I feel like there must be something more to that definition though or you could call Elliot Smith and Beck twee. I guess thinking of the classification as a derogatory term biases me.

I’ve played a tiny bit of Nier Automata this weekend, I’m glad it isn’t as self-serious as I imagined it’d be. In fact it’s almost goofy (the short bit with the Self Destruct menu option is one of my favourite gaming things in recent memory, I hope there’s more like it)

I do wish 2B didn’t feel the need make “!”, “?” or “...” noises though

Elliott Smith's solo stuff is definitely twee, at least songs like "Miss Misery".

The Patient Zero for twee music was Nick Drake:

Night in the Woods seems pretty long for that type of game but I'm probably making it worse by having to go around and talk to literally everyone in town every day.
Also gently caress that game on Mae's laptop
