Tone deaf game, such a terrible idea.

Also FMV games are so lazy and literally anyone with basic knowledge of making games can make them, wish they'd stop making them.

I mean who gave this the green light? Sign of the times i guess. Utterly tragic!

Don't really understand what's so detestable about it... it looks quite low-budget and easily ignored just another independent Bandersnatch kind of thing.

But then gamers love to chase their own tails and whittle down the definition of what is and isn't cool or memeable so whatever.

The concept is cringey and buys into stereotypes too much from the look of things but I honestly didn't mind how the trailer dipped into found footage horror in the second half and I think the game would be better if it focused on that rather than selling itself as a fanservice game for virgins.

Not something I'd play but, like Shaun said, it's easily ignored.

She's asking her 'moderator' real life questions - 'should i go out for a drink' 'should i meet jack' basically implying ' you're now a moderator on my channel, you have a say in my personal life'. It's actually pretty dangerous and promotes more harassment on female streamers.

True, it should have been told from the perspective of the streamer herself rather than the moderator's tbh.

Interesting idea in terms of telling a story of the darker sides of streaming but it seems badly handled.

There's something really unsettling about that trailer. I mean i've seen disturbing video games before, uncomfortable etc, but i dunno this feels really creepy and intrusive, i can't quite put my finger on it.

But yeah, the whole 'you're a moderator now, you have a say in my personal life' thing is just beyond messed up!

[Oliver_W]

Yeah I'm not sure what it's meant to be either... so "we" the player are the moderater of a camwh0re's stream, and we have to choose the right combination of choices to not get her killed?

It's not the best but I can't see why anyone would be annoyed by it.

Gross, Oliver.

I don't mind the FMV style because it gives me nostalgia for things like Phantasmagoria . However... This looks very low budget and the storyline concept seems a bit dumb. For a game like this to work, the acting has to be decent.

Lmao, i remember watching someone play that on Valentines Day last year, they went with all the obscure answers it was hilarious. The guy is super cringe

[Oliver_W]

I didn't even know what an FMV game was til I saw this thread I'm guessing it's a bit like a "choose your own adventure book" but with videos?

[Brother Leon]

Finally, a game for all of us Simps our there.

Usually a guy (doesn't mean to say girls don't) who will give a female streamer (usually a hot girl) money/subs/bits in the hope she notices them.

[Amy Jade]

At first I was like oh god but as soon as it turned dark I thought it looked pretty good.

I'm not a huge gamer to be honest so I would play this over something I know will take me months to play.

[JerseyWins]

What the hell is this game? That is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen in a video game trailer. Just pre-ordered

But really I'm so confused how this is even a game or would be fun. I thought it was a movie at first too rather than one of those "choose your path" games (can't think of the term)

[The Slim Reaper]

Look forward to Swan speedrunning it, and Niamh learning how to be a proper mod.

[JerseyWins]

Literally looks like a youtuber just made a parody video for a video games

LMFAO

So it's a horror? Is it really real? I thought it was fake.

"Erica" is free on PS+ this month by the way - same concept of a "live action" game.
