What attributes should a game need to have to be considered a 'meme game'?
Somebody likes it and you don't.

GUTSMAN!
>>331656448
Needs to be a breakout hit centering around some novel but simple idea or gimmick.
>Be popular
>Not be Nintendo
>Teens/early 20s love it
A fanbase more infamous than the game itself

Memes?
>>331656448
shit
A game cannot possibly be a meme game unless it was designed for the lets player crowd.
See Goat Simulator, the only true meme game.
To a degree FNAF as well. At least if the developer intended it to be picked up by lets players/handed out copies.
Otherwise, being popular does not make something a "meme game". The term is fucking stupid when used that way.

It has to be a fairly popular game you dislike.

This

Basically. Some element unrelated to enjoying a popular game in its entirety, where if you criticize the game someone tells you:
>not playing x for the y

YOU GUESSED IT MEGA TWERP! AND CUTMAN HERE TO TAKE MY CUT!
>>331656448
Kitschy pandering to the common denominator (18-35 males who use the internet a lot) without trying to do or say something original.
It's popular, but you don't personally like it. That's literally it.

HEY MEGAMAN, YOU'RE A LITTLE LOW ON AIR!
>>331656448
Either it:
a) Directly uses memes as an attempt at humour (i.e. Borderlands)
b) Has had it's jokes run into the ground by /v/, Tumblr and Reddit shitters (i.e. Portal, Undertale)
c) Is a popular game I don't like (i.e. Any AAA release in the past few years)
Guess which definition is used the most often.

Is B
It's made by Nintendo, Fromsoft, Betheseda or independently developed.

>>331656448
Anything I don't like, retards here delude themselves into thinking it means something, but in reality is just something you say when you don't like a game, and that game is like another game I don't like. You group them up under "meme game"
