Troonslop "Retro" Games / Demake games / PS1 Trannies / ULTRAKILL / Y2K trannies - Retro gaming is infected

Bridget was always a disgusting character who was meant to appeal to mentally ill heterosexual men. He used to be an otokonoko and appealed to pederastic heterosexual men. Now he was remade into a tranny and appeals to a different group of mentally ill heterosexual men, autogynephiles.

Can le quirky, Friday Night Funkin-esque, Newgrounds artists not add a bunch of shit bathed in purples and pink? This looks like utter shit when you stop the video and look at what you're seeing.

Bro this game is WAY too visually busy. Look at all the shit thats on the screen in these few screenshots.

The thing with Warioware is that visually, it's a flat colored design that isn't too visually busy and tries to not have too many distractions between sections. Compare the shit above with these screenshots below before entering a minigame.

Notice how different and less chaotic the visuals are between the pictures? Put art style aside, visual clutter is a massive problem and be overstimulating to the point of being annoying.

This game ain't gonna get any traction except from teens.....

methinks u should add a seizure warning

To anyone that spergs out about Bridget:
what were you expecting? No, some "femboy" in my degenerate anime game trooned out, how could this happen? It's already some shitty anime fighting game with femboys in it, what were you expecting?

Personally I can't wait for the next Guilty Gear where you play as a corpse.

i got adhd, but i dislike these crackhead-pace games, i dont like games that force me to not focus and be even more hyperactive

Got a similar experience. I love Doom Eternal, but my ADHD mean I just cant get good enough for Nightmare, I just keep forgetting all the functions, like combos, in fact I may be the one guy in the planet who sucks at the Dark Lord

So, is that Bloodborne Kart game even good or people just like it because its Bloodborne?

Isn't Bridget the character who quite literally got groomed into being a girl and then the developers retconned all of that and now xhe's a proud trans wxmen?
No wonder the fans are cancer, it's mostly fellow trannies I'm guessing?

No no, the retcon trans thing hinges on him being groomed by a government agent in the newest game mistakenly calling him a girl several times and saying other creepy fucking "egg hatching" shit.
Original plot was like his parents tried raising him as a girl because of some superstitious BS and he ended up still being a guy anyways and moved away and became a hitman for hire. The reason he's a fucking weirdo like he is is similar to N from pokemon being a weirdo in he spent like a good chunk of his formative life sheltered and treated like a small child IIRC. Big difference is the N kid from pokemon wasn't told he was a girl for his early years of life.

Basically the reason people that actually pay attention to shit had a problem is the message literally becomes "permanently fucking up kids for superstitious reasons is ok because they're actually totally trans kids guys and just don't know it yet!" The "subversion" of making bridget a transwoman isn't a subversion at all and is a return to status quo of gender stereotype shit. What pissed people off severely is troons and "influencers" in the gaming community suddenly acting like this was completely ok and wasn't a complete bullshit character reversal, like even if you don't like the effeminate anime manchild from a fighting game series with all kinds of wacky characters if you take even the SLIGHTEST amount of time to look into things you can see why the trans thing is like complete dogshit addition to bridget. I remember some trannies got pissed about it too at the start because they knew it'd make them look bad till the right "influencers" said otherwise lmao.

"The "subversion" of making bridget a transwoman isn't a subversion at all and is a return to status quo of gender stereotype shit."

Not really the thread to talk about this (not calling you out or anything) but it is trans related sort of so I'll add my two cents. I don't get how it is subversive when Bridget went along with his programming and just accepted the lie given to him. What annoys me is how people put this on a pedestal as a great "rep" for gaming and Bridget's coming out when they never came out. You can basically say they were forced into the closet by their parents then only came out when they accepted they were supposed to be in the closet for a reason and that reason is accepting their upbringing.

Not exactly PS1 style games but does anyone here found the aesthetic revival of 'Y2K' very lame. It feels like a caricature of the genuine design and expression of the time. More about aping checklists of aesthetic instead of creating something interesting.
Check this desktopGeneration 'design movement' here : https://x.com/dsktpGeneration
and its website : https://www.desktopgeneration.com/

And compared this to the 'OG' like Depthcore, Designers Republic, Andreas Lindholm, etc. even the name Desktop Generation feels like a terminally online ironic joke. Like how Geocities sites were genuine, Neocities are troons role-playing the old internet and their websites are nothing but them monologing about themselves.

There are just too many troons crawling in there to count but this is one of them. of course he's anime obsessed and into speedrunning. and much of his work is in this style. I also found how he described his style as 'vectorheart', 'metalheart' very lame, they just want labels for everything. back then there were no such labels as art was a fluid and evolving things.
https://wsx.moe/

Now compares this to a graphic designer who was actually part of 2Advanced studio back in the day and his works are mix of personal and regular commercial works.
https://www.shanemielke.com/
Original Y2K back then had energy, it was futurism of its time. All of this is just a rehash by deeply uncreative people. Or compare this to David Rudnick whose works were clearly inspired by 90s rave posters but he has his own vision to actually create something new about it. (Though he paid lip service to troons tbh, but it's in a weird philosophical view that trans identity is just an expression of hypermodern world)
There's a difference between 'inspiration' and just aping the aesthetic without actually feeling and understanding. Y2K on itself was inspired by 1960s modernism (which in turns was inspired by 1920s Bauhaus stuff) but with digitised sheen, but it has enough of vitality to actually mean something at the time.

these guys really claim to be "Y2K" before retweeting shit made in 2011 and using motherfucking Calibri in their "millennium homages"


the site is even using modern New York City metro styling (I don't know the design language's name sorry) that has been around since the fucking 60s to advertise itself as Y2K


the reason this feels regurgitated and uninspired is because these people are too fucking stupid to do the most basic of research

they just see a pretty image, see a label attached to it, go "ooh how validating" and then pass it off as their own slop that's "totally like everyone else's"

they skinwalk old art just like they skinwalk the opposite gender

Not gatekeeping media and hobbies has been a complete disaster for said content, fandoms are now composed of the most awful and disgusting people imaginable that constantly make asses of themselves online and IRL.
It also doesn't help that a lot of content gets dumbed down nowadays so even more retards come and stink up discussions with idiotic opinions or retarded memes.

My bad for dual posting but I always say the loudest people who are against gatekeeping are the ones who need to be gatekept. These are the ones who are the first to cry about being excluded and think a vetting process is too much when it is needed. The irony is when they start getting power in fandoms they take over they are the first ones to try and push others out then gatekeep as now it's not for you in their eyes.

The artwork made in 2011 was certainly at the 'end of an era' of the art style that was popular in the 2000s. And for NYC subway sign design - Designers Republic were clearly inspired by Massimo Vignelli (Who designed NYC metro styling), but mixing it with graffiti/electronic music culture/skateboard culture. So I can understand where they were getting from. It's the way they skinwalk the old art which made it so lame, because then their works have no real 'inspiration' or direction, but only exist to imitate, to be categorised and labelled. (and I think commercial/graphic design can be art - See Saul Bass and Vaughan Oliver)

It's not that the 'inspiration' that is wrong, but they have no *direction*. Especially if you look at these works or neocities, they tend to be a lot more cluttered than actual works made during the time they were popular because they thought it was about 'maximalism' (it wasn't) and filled with what they think 'signifies' the era like Evangelion anime font or elements from windows 98/XP UI while people back then didn't do that because they thought Windows UI was ugly.
Or if you looked at the first Devil May Cry game, old games were trying to look the best with technology of the time. That's why faux PS1 troonslops are lazy. Designs of old games had a lot of effort into it, just with lower details but they were supposed to look good. This PS1 demake are all about aesthetic of things being deliberately ugly. The only thing that came close to 'stylism' would probably be stuff like Wipeout and Kinetica that was inspired by broader graphic design trend, or Xbox 360 piss filter era - which was done to exude stylised grittiness... but not the low-poly eyebleed colours these idiots are doing

this sums up these people quite well

There's a reason why these people get called out as 'Trendwhore' back then, and why Depthcore moved on from doing fractal 3d with text to something more. But even then the wallpaperist trend whores of old were just trend followers, but genuine. the current batches , combined with sites like https://cari.institute/aesthetics has been a disaster to graphic design. They genuinely think they're doing something deep and specific while all they do is to follow a shallow understanding of old art.

so CARI is just tv tropes but for graphic design

And just as TvTropes ruined popular-media writing. Wikia culture made it harder to write an unreliable characters in stories, because there's a desire to take everything characters say as 'lore reveal'. Characters lying is then taken at face value and context is removed. A lot of modern tv/movies got infected by it and the audience demand it. It all became all these decontextualized little narrative units that people think they can just assemble together with no thought of context of theme.

Is like roman statues. Nietzche even wrote a spergout essay were he praised the austerity of roman statues and extrapolated that plain bronze and marbel image to a social analisis of the culture and how it represents their values. Except now we know that those statues were supposed to be painted in all kinds of vibrant colours. Now it happens in real time with things that are within our own lifespans, people just pick and choose some stereotype that might not even be accurate and project their own modern bias and sensibilities on it in retrospect.

It would good idea to make CARI tread and how much damage they done to graphic design.
