>bruh why do people hate these retro games about times past. It's fun lol Yeah I don't know why do people constantly kvetch and bitch and moan about "cultural appropriation".
You know nothing about this subculture. It's the most one dimensional bird's eye view level of a culture imaginable. If you draw a Chihuahua wearing a sombrero playing in a mariachi band then people call it "racist".
They know 3 things and it's played like a caricature. It's a person riding a skateboard listening to physical media wearing a Green Day shirt going "cowabunga" over a businessman wearing horn rimmed glasses.
I'm not just ragging on zoomers but holy shit. We're not allowed to say "gay" or "retarded" anymore.
Looks like millennials are to blame for this one though OP. The trustfund baby Megan Ellison is 40 years old despite my first impression.
The stupidest part of it all is to think that the 90s were just one big blob of "alternative culture", when it was a million different niches both alt and mainstream, and everyone had some contact with all of them. Not only that but the early 90s and late 90s are completely different eras to the point they feel decades apart. People nowadays don't understand it because culture now is completely stagnant and stuff being made now is undistinguishable from the early 2010s. Back them it felt like a completely new world every few months.
Anyway this game is fucking retarded and deserves to get shit on so maybe we can end this trash nostalgia-bait fad once and for all
I live in NYC n the late 80's early 90's as a teen and it was nothing like this. Every time you ventured to a different neighborhood it was like you were entering a different country with different races of people trying to kill you. I never went to prison but I can't imagine NYC public schools are that different. I wish I grew up in the midwest holy shit NYC was ass if you were a white kid
It doesn't matter what you say or how you argue. This is what the 90's were like. They were interracial, left leaning, pro gay and everything you hate. They were this way because we say so. You will agree with us not because you want to, but because we told you to. We are the new Christ, the new God, the only one you will pray to from now on. Right wing incel chuds do not have the right to resist.
>>738756626 Oh dear, this fucking sucks so much They're appealing to nostalgia for those who never lived in that era while trying to be funny. Fucking filled with cringe zoomer dialogue trying to be boomers. A bad interactive movie filled with licensed music. 10/10
>>738758323 I was born in philly and can't relate. Yeah skateboarding caught on here on year in the mid 90s. Yeah we had house parties or drank in the park. There were a lot harder drugs going around. I lived in an.all white but poorish neighborhood which doesn't really exist in the city now. Blacks were afraid to walk through it. Its still mostly white today but it got gentrified and is full of upper class libs now
>>738758568 nigger, nostalgia is the main selling point of the game all those reviews reek of people who don't know the meaning of the phrase "peaked in highschool"
>>738758568 they are actually, there's several massive fucking tags on TikTok and other social media sites surrounding it. Even SubbReddits. Fuck some people are just massively ignorant, and the only thing eclipsing it is there ego. I would love to take a 90s themed shovel to your arrogant head.
>>738756626 This game was made by Australians too. I think the entire world is currently going through some insane level of psychosis where they talk about America so much they are starting to think they are Americans
>>738758675 >>738758705 People being retards doesn't make my statement false. They ,by definition, cannot be nostalgic for something they never experienced. Stupid ESL fucks
>>738758906 This is what I'm talking about. Instead of admitting you're wrong about something that literally started several music genres, video game genres, and cultural shifts, You double down and make non sequiturs. I'm not an ESL I made a fucking typo, you self aggrandizing, egotistical, ignorant, moronic, twat.
>>738758058 Yes. You think the 90s weren't woke? The era where everyone broke into rap? The era where environmentalism was still popular? The era with TV shows like Will & Grace or Ellen? This was one of the most popular cartoons back in the way. The 90s were pozzed
>>738758806 >This game was made by Australians that explains why it's so inauthentic. the late 90s in america was bling era hip hop, nu-metal, pop punk, eurodance, boy bands and literally no one tucking their shirts in ever. anyone listening to devo did so ironically (hipsters), and no one rode on those old school skateboards.
>>738759114 I'm not arguing in circles with a pathetic retard. You can't be nostalgic for something you didn't experience. People that THINK they are are also retarded. You would probably like hanging out with them, you double fucking retard. Go have a meltdown somewhere else
>>738758412 Because they hate the one they're in now and hear how great everything used to be from people older than them. Then they start looking into it and become enamored. Same shit as people looking romantically at some far off historic era and imagining living then. Escapism is comforting. The hilarious part is when they get the aesthetic completely wrong
>>738756626 not even how 90s kids dressed. >>738756719 1982 xlennial here. And your full of shit. >>738758431 99? yeah that shit screams 80s not 90's. And the late 90's soundtrack was basically nu-metal, rob zombie and garbage non fucking stop Where are the JNCO's and hot topic bullshit? Fucking high top tennis shoes in 99? bitch we were all on low tops and sure as fuck didnt wear skinny jeans? Also the skateboards arent even period accurate. Where the fuck are the raver kids at? The fuck is wrong with these utter fucking poser fags? was a person over 40 even allowed near this disgracefully inaccurate project?
>>738759434 >The fuck is wrong with these utter fucking poser fags? was a person over 40 even allowed near this disgracefully inaccurate project? They don't have their own identity as a generation
>>738759814 And they are dumb fucking fags who werent there too. Whats your point you ass lancing queer? >>738759857 Bingo. Sorry brown people ruined and stagnated your culture but leave my teenage years the fuck alone you miserable wankers. Maybe pry yourselves off the phones for 10 minutes and interact with each other and you might have your own culture.
>>738759993 Drama is over, everyone realizes its just a 2 hour movie and not even a game. In a couple more days nobody will even be talking about this shit
>>738760103 Every kid knew it was eco propaganda bullshit. It was something you mockingly watched while waiting for an actual good cartoon to come on a different channel
>>738761006 Found the Xbox 360 mw2 zoomer. You have no clue how callous we were in the 90's. Gay bashing was still a widely accepted and tolerated thing.
Little advice to the zoomies ITT skip this piece of shit and just go watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off or Dazed and Confused instead. Both of them do everything this movie tries to do way better.
>>738759136 >The era with TV shows like Will & Grace or Ellen? Will and Grace was only popular in coastal cities. Nobody in Middle America watched it. >>738759260 There was also an episode with a straight teenager who had HIV. As if the disease wasn't 90% gay men when the episode aired.
>>738758118 >If you draw a Chihuahua wearing a sombrero playing in a mariachi band then people call it "racist".
That's what you're basically complaining about thoughbeit. It's people taking a culture they have no familiarity with and reducing it into a stereotype of itself while patting themselves on the back for being progressive. You my friend, have been reduced to a jamboy that your colonizers like to parade around to feel like they're on the right side of history.
>>738765362 I would say around 95 is when people who were actually pushing the sport forward stopped using fish. I still occasionally saw older guys using them but like, if you skated street, fuck that.This game is about posers though, not skateboarders.
>>738763196 >I’m sure the Aussie government funded this garbage somehow. Usually it should have one of these logos in it's credits somewhere if I'm not mistaken. From my observations it typically indicates something to do with a grant. Or if you just see a state government emblem that's enough to determine as well. Usually it's done via state by state basis and regional government.
This game was entirely made with AI. the company that produced it "Annapurna Interactive" even uses A_I as their social media tag but people will say its ok this time because the game is being used to dunk on chuds
>>738761089 >>738761389 Even if he is a zoomer, he's right. People said "gay" and "retarded" as insults all the time in 2008. You can watch any video game let's play from that year on Youtube and people throw those words around like candy. Many of the same people who did that then don't do it anymore because times have changed.
>vidya, movie or tv show is set in the 90s >there isnt a constant haze of cigarette smoke lingering on the ceiling of every building the characters walk into
People have forgotten about it already, but breathing in public spaces back in the day was a fucking nightmare
>>738756626 No it reeks of basedlennial trash. My generation absolutely cursed this earth culturally speaking for every year past 2020. Never seen a more subservient, grovelling and backwards minded people, zoomers managed to adapt but millennials got caught in like three different whipsaws and then scuttled. There are two distinct futures, subservient obedience and absolute rebellion, there seems to be no inbetween and the polarity aggravates me.
>>738757589 Well, okay. That makes sense. I'm almost 40 and I work with a bunch of 20 year olds. I am out of touch, I do not have my hand on the pulse of culture. This is normal for old people (like myself)
zoomers and alphas could spot this shit a mile away. When you get to a certain age you should be a background creator. You shouldn't have your hands in the core process.
>>738759136 >"the past was woke too, you chuds" >brings up examples of stuff that were wildely considered "lame" at the time and liked by no-one huh... funny that.
>>738766474 There's a lot of total NPC faggots in this generation who swallowed all of the cultural propaganda, way more than Gen Z ever did, which they're based for that. However, in our defense, the creative departments and studio directors of entertainment have been frozen in time for decades now due to nepotism, so I can't exactly blame us there.
God could you imagine Captain Planet coming out today and people trashing it like they already did in the past, but now its got millions of wokies running to its defence?
>>738767746 The only thing that gives me solace is knowing that it's a total flop that no one's playing, like maybe there's less mindraped Redditors out there now who would actually play this than I thought.
>>738759136 >posting captain planet on every single thread about this kusoge to make a point Stupid commie zoomer you can't even larp properly, not even the most retarded and bullied subhuman watched this crap, you had more chances of getting scot free from a bully by saying that you liked Sailor moon than admitting that you liked this shit, t. bully.
>>738766883 >>738768724 Some priest centuries ago predicted the world would end on October 22, 1996. This spread around our school like wildfire and a bunch of kids didn't bother with their homework because they figured the world was gonna end.
>>738756719 88 millenial i haven't seen a discman which can play in that orientation without skipping like mad and run on 2x AA battery like that in the 90s the first affordable anti-skip discman i ever saw was in the mid 2000s. could play burnt cds and mp3 format
>>738769871 >the first affordable anti-skip discman i ever saw was in the mid 2000s. could play burnt cds and mp3 format Yeah I got one around then. Proper Sony and all. It was still fairly janky. Tape Walkman was better and more practical because I liked to tape shit off the radio
>>738767075 It's actually set in 1995. I'm not sure how people are getting other years.
I was too young to have any clear memories of what music should be correct, but i do know most music from the 90s from watching video music channels that played stuff regardless of when if was released years back. I would say my clearest understanding by maturing in age was 1998. That's when i understood what popular music was i suppose when i was like 6 years old or something. Even so it doesn't look like any image of this period that my younger less matured mind witnessed. Not above the most basic surface level stuff. Like: walkman? remember bro? VCR?
>>738772495 Zoomers are the first generation to grow up with animation making, music making and game making software at their fingertips for free. They're making a lot of shit and at a young age too (a long of it is sadly pretty bunk though, all that roblox influence is genuine poison to the mind).
>>738772516 Because anons need something to bitch about this week until the next thing to bitch about comes out Mods count it as engagement so it stays up
>>738759136 >Most popular No it was treated as a preachy joke People treated it like 80s kids treated the Get Along Gang and the other preachy cartoons of the time
