>puts The Order 1886 on his GOTY list
>Too stupid to understand Undertale
>Didn't even play MGSV in favor of Mad Max
Remember when Penny Arcade was relevant to people who played video games?

>Too stupid to understand Undertale
you got it the other way around OP
>>322088342
It's one thing if you think it's bad but Gabes words were literally "looks stupid and makes no sense."
>>322088342
Did you actually read his reasoning? One of the sentences literally says "it has no respect and has no respect"
It's obvious he wrote that next to a thesaurus and doesn't have an intelligent though in his bald head, if he's the bald one
I didn't like undertale either but he's a fucking idiot
>>322087972
Maybe it's because he doesn't like "Tumblr: The Video Game"?
>The Order 1886 on anyone's GOTY list
That... that can't be true. They can't have fallen that far
>>322088903
hell is real 2016
Which one are we talking about
>>322088752
Read his review. Faggot literally just lifted random words out of a thesaurus.
Here's some of my favorite bits:
"There is a popular mode now I have taken to calling Double Reverse Irony, where things are real but not real but no they’re actually real, that is just one step beyond where I’m interested. My policy when the next generation “does them” is informed by 2pac’s I Ain’t Mad At Cha, and I only get mad when people transform works into litmus tests"
and
"It is insufficiently reverent, and does not perform the proper obeisances. Others like it for precisely these reasons. I’m delighted by the iconoclasm intellectually and repulsed by it viscerally"
Seriously what the fuck does any of that mean?
>>322091393
holy shit you're not kidding?

Oh yeah here's the source, scroll down a little

>>322091393
he's right tho, dundertale sucks major dickholes
>>322091393
I really hope his writing is supposed to be "Double Reverse Irony."
>>322091393
So you're illiterate?
>>322091571
Maybe so. But he surely doesn't prove his point by stringing together nonsense words from a thesaurus.
"It is insufficiently reverent, and does not perform its proper obeisances"
like what the fuck
>>322087972
>>Too stupid to understand Undertale
Because it's such a deeeeeeeep game, right? Fuck off you faggots. Honestly the absolute worst fanbase on this board.
>>322091662
Not wanting to read a clunky word-salad doesn't make someone illiterate.
>>322091662
>"It is insufficiently reverent, and does not perform the proper obeisances. Others like it for precisely these reasons. I’m delighted by the iconoclasm intellectually and repulsed by it viscerally"
Nobody writes like this unless they're A: a pretentious faggot or B: trying to make their Internet friends think they're cool.
>>322091726
No, it's not even that. Read his review. It's word salad at best and flagrant autism at worst.

>Puts The Order on his GOTY list
What an idiot
>Doesn't put Undertale on
Maybe not that big of an idiot.
>>322091393
Yeah I had to google what those words were so I guess I'm an idiot
Is he saying "It is insufficiently respectful, and does not pay it's dues (to the gaming industry? the RPG genre?). Others like it for precisely these reasons. I'm delighted by the turning of the genre on its head intellectually and repulsed by it emotionally"
>>322091662
Read it out loud. Utter garbage. Writing isn't judged solely on vocabulary. Thesaurus 101 is generally thought of as bad writing.
>>322091858
>"You have to like it or you don't get it"
Didn't the creator himself say most people won't and shouldn't like undertale?
>>322091393
>>322088752
>>322087972
You guys seem to be talking about two posts by two different people as though they're one person. Gabe even makes fun of Tycho's word salad in the first line of his post, as you do.
>>322091905
Read his review, it's hilarious how hard he's trying to impress the small amount of people who still read his webcomic.
>>322092018
Keep reading. Unlike a fine wine, his writing gets shitty and shittier over time.
>>322087972
You're too young to understand them. I remember reading this comic 15 years ago and it was pretty spot on for the most part.
They're right about Undertale. It is just an 8 hour VN with punny humor that panders to RPG nostalgia, anime, and furries.
]: )
>>322092269
It's not even close to being a VN, do you even know what that is?
>>322092057
I don't give a shit how he worded the review. If the way it was written was about any game apart from Undertale, people wouldn't be giving it a shit. It's because it's Undertale that people are throwing their toys out of the pram.
>>322091393
>doesn't understand PA are two people, mixes up their comments
>isn't familiar with bald's purple writing style
>simultaneously calls someone "too stupid" to understand a game while admitting you don't understand anything they wrote
>all this from a comic where bald was poking fun at HIMSELF for not understanding undertale
>the first line of bald's post is "Undertale is the New Game You Have To Like Or You Don’t Get It"
>in attempting to deride him you prove his point 100%
So what's the deal here. You're a tumblrtale fan who got linked to PA for the first time ever and your knickers are twisted that they made fun of a game or what? Kind of what they've been doing for however many fucking decades now.
I mean this shit was tame as fuck compared to how they used to be.
They have fallen so far out of touch it's ridiculous. How they still claim to bear any relevance to video games is puzzling. Even the art is somehow miles worse than it was 5-8 years ago.
Fuckers need to accept they got old and medicated and addicted to dirty industry cock. They are no better than the plebs who only play app-store mobile games now.
>>322087972
It wasnt that he was too stupid to understand it, it was that he simply didnt care about it. And honestly, anyone with half a brain would agree
>>322092717
>now
do you know how fucking many bejeweled comics they made?
>>322092057
Pretty sure he's making a point with that by calling back to his previous statement of "you either like it or you don't get it", you fucking underage faggot.
>>322088432
Gabe is an artist. Of course bad art is gonna bring out his inner manchild. What did tycho think of it?
>>322091713
>>322091713
That's one of the more well structured sentences in the post so I guess you're just outright saying "I've never heard of the words reverent or obeisance."
Which would be okay, everyone has to hear a word for the first time at some point. Except you're also admitting that whenever you see a new word instead of looking it up and bettering your vocabulary you lash out at the writer and imply that no-one could have a better vocabulary than you. You're clearly insecure about your own intelligence. Ignorance is forgivable, but stupidity isn't. You ought to have the appropriate REVERENCE for knowledge.
"Nonsense words," I mean really. Have some self respect.
>>322092057
THEY'RE TWO DIFFERENT FUCKING PEOPLE
>>322093375
It: butt hurt underage undertake faggots on full defense
>>322092631
just gained a load of respect for penny arcade
>>322091393
The Tycho guy (I don't remember their real names) always wrote like that. My vocabulary sucks, so I never even bothered reading his opinions on things when I regularly went to that site.
>>322087972
>thinking Undertale is a deep game
>thinking constant 4th wall breaking and "you were tricked!" characters is good for a game about morality
>>322094476
>undertake
mobile posters outing themselves is always fun to watch
>>322091726
i think what op meant is that you have to be one dense motherfucker to not understand undertale
>>322093169
Why doesn't he sperg out every time they release a comic. their quality has been going down the shitter for a while.
>>322091393
i think what he's trying to convey in a really roundabout way is that parodies work best when they're affectionate and undertale's approach is too cynical for him
but goddamn
>>322093169
considering the garbage they shat on their last year worth of strip, piglike has no right to ever question any artstyle. He's not an artist, he wish he was. But the task was so hard for his limited capabilities they are now paying other people to draw the strip.
>>322097469
Wow you sure got him....

>>322092631
Wow, I can really relate to that comic.
Well except for the whole Nirvana thing, they've always been overrated shit.
