A thing the German article on their closing touched on that not a lot of the US ones did was "Don't worry: the new Deponia game is not canceled, since it was an external team developing it, not the internal one being shuttered," and that was the point at which I got mad Gollum couldn't even salt the loving earth successfully.

Wait, didn't the main character definitively die at the end of the third game?

Oh, nevermind, it's a craft'um-up wearing Deponia's skin.

quote:

OPEN A NEW CHAPTER
Even though Surviving Deponia can be enjoyed as a stand-alone experience, it takes place right after the Point & Click Adventure Series “Deponia” and gives fans canonical closure about Elysium’s fate and Deponia’s citizens.

I guess this is a thing some people wanted? Okay.

See you'd think that his death ended it but they've done at least one more game since he died with time travel to bring that prick back. I did not know the new one wasn't yet another bad adventure game though.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

I can't muster much sympathy toward them because they're the devs of Deponia, which is one of the most gross, misogynistic, edgelord bullshit properties I've ever heard of.

The hell is this poo poo? I already found the first game to be cringeworthy, but :lol: at things getting worse and worse. And here I thought the protagonist of Kyrandia III was already kind of too much of a dick.

This looks like an attempt at black comedy going tits up because the devs tried dialing the bad taste dial up to eleven, but accidentally broke it and got it stuck at level 69 instead

Now I kind of regret getting the Deponia-collection on Switch when it had an insanely cheap deal going on. At least I bought it before getting an OLED and never bothered to download the games again after I switched my Switch

At least Kyrandia 3 has the antagonist from the first game as the protagonist so you're EXPECTING him to be a dick.

You're not a proper gamer unless a significant fraction of your Steam library is stuff you have zero memory of. Mostly it's the sales that are to blame.

"Adventure pack? Forty-three games for $7? GabeN, you got yourself a deal, you big beautiful man, you!

See, I have that situation going on, it's just most of the games I can't remember buying are at least things I could understand myself paying money for at some point. With the Deponia games I'm just like "Why would I have bought this?"

Just looked up the plot of A New Beginning:

"They also find an article how earth got partially destroyed after a nuclear reactor exploded in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. This event destroyed the rain forest causing to start a chain reaction in which the earth went into a nuclear winter. "

Why... why would you build a nuclear reactor in the middle of a rainforest? Like, that's Captain Planet villain level of villainy, it'd be so much EFFORT to get all the construction material there, clear the land, etc etc. versus building it pretty much anywhere else.

In all honesty, having a vague excuse to justify mass-deforestation in the Amazon is probably the most realistic thing that happens in that game.

It stayed in production limbo for awhile before finally getting a limited run release for like a week so even by the very low standards of SNL adaptations everybody knew it was a turd.

It's loving wild to think that the 19th Amendment is barely a hundred years old. From generation to generation, the ongoing civil rights revolution of roughly the past two hundred years is incredible. Far from perfect, obviously, but there's basically no time I'd want to live other than now because even 10-15 years ago things sucked, and they only get worse the further back you go.

It's funny how one might read about the "monkey" scene and think that there's no way that a relatively high-profile and well-regarded adventure game from the 2010s would be that gross and maybe the game's writer tried to make a harmless joke, but fumbled the delivery or the journalist made a bad faith reading.

Then you play it and it's honestly even worse and there is no way to excuse it. Mind-boggling.

Yeah, seriously. I got the first one through some humble bundle thing and I had to quit halfway through because the protagonist is so aggressively douchy. To hear it gets that much worse is almost impressive from an unlikability perspective.

the video's kind of just a poorly lit ramble but the twitter thread has most of the stuff. not sex pest stuff but he underpaid his editors and overworked them. stuff like not sending them the clips they needed for editing for days, not sending them scripts or recording his voiceover, and paying them something like 1k for a month of basically fulltime work, and he kept getting high school/college kids to do it so they just went 'woah... 1000 dollars!!' without realizing it wasnt that much money for how much work they did. the absolutely massive size of his videos also made them a huge pain to work on but he was convinced hed Solved the algorithm
