So /v/, what classifies a game as a meme game?
Is it a popular game?
A game you hate?
A game you like?

>>321310801
examples of definitions of what make a game a meme game:
>relies too heavily on references, but not normal ones - cringy and poorly laid ones
"dude, we must get the cake"
"the cake is a lie"
>becomes a meme by itself because of all the contradictory and hilariously bad shit in it
"see? i'm a woman, i can shoot a gun! fuck the patriarchy!"
"agh, shit! i shoot my foot! help me!"
>tries to be so deep it actually becomes ridiculous
"life is like a banana on an open wagon in the sun"
etc.
>over-exploited by the fanbase, which at one point blows up
"character X is gay, trans, autistic, mentally ill... AND a tranny!"
"check out this scat porn i made of Y!"
"MLP crossover fanfiction of this game came out! woohoo XD!"
>>
Literally any game that attempts to do something unusual or deviate from the norm, and becomes popular as a result.
>>
Any game you don't like, and is popular.

just disregard memegame posters
>>
any game that's particularly shallow in mechanics and skill cap but blows up in the mainstream.
>>
Any game I don't like
>>
>>321310801
Unironically using "meme" as a valid point of criticism is only used by newfags and redditors. It has no criticising-definition, and those who try to give it one are confirmed redditors.
>>
>>321310801
Simple
If I see it mentioned anywhere on reddit, it's a meme game
Is there art of it on Tumblr? Meme game
Is Neogaf talking about it in any way? MEME

How the fuck do you even enjoy video games?

>>321310801
a game I dislike and is popular/successful.

Fucking hell, that explains way too much /v/ shitposting. MEME-posting included.

You know that's the same reason why bronies became a thing right? It started here mostly, just people being ironic and joking, but eventually outsiders and people who didn't know thought they were being serious so they tried to "join" in a serious manner. It snowballs from there and eventually you have an entire fandom who took themselves seriously, when it all started as a little joke.
