People talk so much about how this game is an impressive artistic experiment, and so little about whether or not it's any good.

Eh... Love It or Hate It. The whole point of the game is to get a bickering NPC couple back together and the highlight is how intelligently (relative to other game A.I.s) they respond to parsed text.

If that's not your cup of tea then skip it.

Oh god, I saw this on a livestream last night. It was... a thing. Definitely a thing.

^^^ I don't talk about it on either of those terms. I talk about it as a hilariously awkward exploitation-fest.

I'm not sure I'd say it's good, but it is hilarious.

This is the sort of game where it's more fun to watch a Let's Play than to actually play it.

^^^ Seems easy enough to me:

1. Don't wear fruity sweaters.

2. Don't live in cities made entirely of JPEG artifacts.

3. Don't keep lumpy multi-colored dildo sculptures lying around.

Mateas is some sort of a scientist in that field, so the whole thing is an experiment.

We were shown this one day in Video game history. It went atrociously bad. [lol]

Then our professor restarted it, and as soon as the guy opens the dor, our professor typed in "Fuck You."

The guy stopped talking in the middle of his sentence, got the most disgusted look on his face, and shut the door in our face. [lol][lol][lol][lol][lol]

After a couple of (mostly) unsuccessful playthroughs this game is actually a lot more linear than it first looks.

Just, as a note, when he tries to shut the door on your face at the start of the game, you can run past him and continue on with the game.

Why do they hate the word "Melon" so much?
