As someone who actually played it, I found it intensely boring at best and highly insulting to depression sufferers at worst.

The people behind it clearly have no idea what they are talking about, and are forced to rely on sad piano BGM to make the player feel something.

As a game, it sucks. But if something as complexly lackluster as Depression Quest can exist, it gives some hope that I could make a game too someday. If Zoe Quinn can make a game, ANYONE can make a game, and that's something that a lot of people can get some hope out of.

its almost like she never cared about promoting her games.

either way i never cared about all this drama.

she is absolutely hideous, not only her sense of style, but her absolute neglect of taking care of her body.
furthermore her posture and the fact that its a lady drinking beer at what im to assume is daytime given the natural lighting on her body, lead me to the conclusion that she is an uncultured swine.

This. The only thing GG did was give the people they hate more attention, prominence, and money. Oh, they also dialed up the autism to max for everyone to see, which just gave journalists and SJWs leverage to use against the gaming community. Turned a non-issue into an issue.

I work with a person who is literally like her, can't code for shit and takes the credit for everything, and if you try to bring up a problem during development she literally screams people out of the room, but its okay because she is someone's daughter so it is advised you don't directly to her, and that you if do engage in active criticism (whatever the fuck that means) you save any problematic bits to yourself because she is a sensitive soul.

Really given women the right to vote was a fucking mistake. Hitler's fanbase were literally women.

Depression quest is about someone feeling a little sad, not depressed. Depressed people don't leave the house. They don't interact with anyone. They push everyone away and withdraw from society. Then they stop taking care of their house or themselves then become even more reclusive and are too ashamed to leave the house or let anyone in because at this point it has turned into a literal garbage dump and they stink to high heaven.

I'm speaking from experience. Glad I got over it.
>>
>>285367385
It's pretty mediocre overall, the writing is shit, it doesn't really teach anyone about Depression except for the specific variety that she went through and the endings are all a variety of "you tried".

Not to mention taking pills doesn't work for some people but it's perfectly fine in this game and works 100% of the time, yet the main characters refuses to touch them for a while.

The Hyperbole and a Half post about her depression was 100 times better and it wasn't disguised as a shitty "choose your own adventure" game.

It's shit. Pick the options which society tells you will make you happy and you win. Should you stay inside or go out partying? The "right" answer is obvious, but none of the influence associated with depression (being too fucking apathetic/self-loathing/etc. to do anything) is actually captured in the game.

Also, check em.

This.

But women like Zoe put in the bare minimum of of effort into everything they do, and then dial up the self-congratulatory egoism that's inconsistent with their accomplishments. If you question their credentials, they have an army of white knights to attack you, and defend her.

So to her, her little foray into sadness was the same as the kind of depression that a quadrapalegic vetern with burn scars feels, and don't you fucking dare question her feelings!

It does a good job relaying the state of mind of a chronically depressed person to the player(taking away your ability to seek help. even though you know you need it you will always find a bullshit excuse.).

>>
As a person who suffered from depression for years, I felt the writing was very hamfisted and simplistic.

I feel like the game was less about helping people understand depression, but rather give them a shitty, unrealistic cookie-cutter example of it, and it's coming from someone who doesn't understand. But the writer wouldn't know that, since she doesn't understand that in the first place.

Completely disregarding any buzz, news, or press around Quinn or the game:

It's utter shit, and probably the worst game I've ever played. I honestly do not know where to start on this game.

Let's start with the structure of the game. It's absolutely atrocious. The game styles itself an interactive fiction game, but gives you choices that you can't do, simply because "you are depressed". This a bad design, and just serves to distract the reader from playing the game and/or break what little immersion there could be. While I have never been clinically diagnosed as depressed before, I think I can assume that depressed people can still do night work like other people or talk to their girlfriends like human beings. Despite the large amount of choices given to you, there are essentially two endings, a good one, and a bad one, with variants on each. There is no room for additional playthroughs, because of how little your choices matter or how little anything changes beyond the good/bad endings.

This might be salvageable if the game was written well. It is not. I have seen (and written myself) middle school assignments with more creativity, better prose, and more coherent structure than this game. From a literary standpoint, this game is an overtly verbose mess, with ridiculous amounts of backstory being explained in optional links that are sealed off after certain slides. This backstory is critical in certain situations, and you either have the choice of reading paragraphs and paragraphs of (missable) text to attempt to understand certain character actions, or avoid them and be confused when said actions take place.

The characters of this game could not be more generic, derivative, and bereft of life. The main character is a blank slate, who has no character traits beyond being depressed. Why is he depressed? That isn't really explained. He has a nice job, a nice apartment, a loving girlf- sorry, "significant other", and people that love him. He's whiny.

But anyway, the controversy erupted from the fact that people thought she slept for good reviews, which is not true. If it was, I could fully understand why people would be upset. But it's not. Not that I like Depression Quest or Quinn, but it's hard not to paint her as the victim when she's getting death threats over a misconception.

Continued.

Alex, your significant other, is a cookie-cutter love interest. She has no real character traits beyond her love for you. If I didn't know any better, I'd assume that she was the product of the author's wish fullfillment. Depending on the choices you make, she either leaves you or stays with you, and this changes the way that the MC acts drastically. Note that the MC's life seems to entirely depend on her and her affection, since without her, he falls apart completely. Other characters have even less personality, existing for mere handfuls of scenes.

The presentation is also horrid. There is little music, which is poorly done at that, and is otherwise sparse and minimalistic. This limits the amount of investment we can get from the story further, since there is nothing to amplify or even hint at emotional tension. The game is boring. It isn't fun, or tense, or exciting, or in fact much of anything at all.

This is the worst game I've ever played, but you knew that already. The people that liked this game aren't on this website. You came here to hear shit about the game. How many threads have we had that have gone exactly like this? A hundred? Two hundred?

I just don't understand why we need to keep having the same discussion over and over again. I would much rather have the debate and harassment that Quinn sees as personifying GG than this stale, armchair revolutionary bullshit.

This is common fact guys, he wrote the Game Jam topic that was primarily about Quinn and then they went on the Vegas trip which was when the alleged cheating happened according to the sources.

It's not even hidden, and I'm not claiming they instantly got together and broke a shit ton of rules or journalistic ethics or whatever bullshit, but he was promoting her and her shit when they were close friends and on the way to becoming a sexual relationship.

This is why it sort of became an icon for /v/ and GG or whatever at the time for Indie devs and Journalists despite not actually being an actual jounalistic ethical issue exactly.

Really this took like 2 seconds of googling to find out, are you that lazy?

Aaaah, fair enough. I've never worked on one of those so that's probably why.


As for this thread in general, Depression Quest was pretty bad. I mean, knowing that she knows nothing about depression personally makes the experience a bit disingenuous but even beyond that, the engagement was poor. The pacing was poor. Visual feedback was poor... everything about it was just badly done.

I don't think anything is wrong with her specifically. She's just a cutthroat entrepreneur doing all the shady shit that entrepreneurs do. But she's a bad designer, bottom line.

My thoughts too.

ZQ thinks her experiences are universal and presents them as such, which rings hollow. AB is just telling her own story, not claiming to represent all depressed people, which feels truer.

Of course my experiences of depression are closer to AB's post than what I've seen of DQ, so I may just be coming at this from my own bias. And this sets aside whether ZQ is really depressed at all or has something else wrong with her. I'm not going to judge. As far as I can tell, either she or her ex is a sociopath and it's impossible to tell which.

From a purely unbiased standpoint, I hate the game. I battled with severe depression and suicidal tendencies for most of my teenage years, was even committed and drugged to hell and back for a few months. Not only is the game horribly misrepresentative of depression, its downright insulting with its bullshit "HURR DURR THINK POSITIVE TO FEEL BETTER!!!" It shouldnt exist because Zoe has no idea how depression works and is a cunt for it

Depression Quest is a text adventure and thus a game. Unless Zork isn't.

But has she made any others? I saw her "Waiting for Godot" adaptation which was just an endless loading screen, reeeeal original there, a game of absurd conversation would actually be fun but noooooo but haven't seen anything else from her.

She's a sociopathic manipulative cunt who, after emotionally abusing her boyfriend and wrapping her pussy around anything that moved solely for personal gain, got to play the victim card and be a face of the feminist movement in video games by framing actual depressed betas. Then the Epic five guys maymay rolled around and she basically got to double dip on victim status while being as much of a feminist as a hentai protagonist. Fuck her.

it's complete shit, the story is boring, the soundtrack is uninspired, the UI isn't even trying, the prose is amateur, and all the characters lack depth.

I can never bring myself to get invested in the story or care for the protagonist, but that's fine since he has a supportive gf, loving family, and pet to care about him instead.

also it's an unrealistic depiction of what depressed people are going through making the entire thing pointless.
