I'm sure there's people who actually think that way XD
The Protomen enhanced my life.I wanna know how the tragic tale of Banana Hand ends....
Another mediocre Newgrounds offering, and a new vid from Chip and Ironicus:
Another Silent Hill ripoff, except this one put something resembling effort into it.
Also, calling it now, the protagonist is in the closet and the monsters represent his repressed homosexuality.

Whole lot of awkward silences on that one. Seems like they really don't have much to riff on.
Part 2:
I love how awful the flashlight effect is; you can see better in the darkness than you can with it on, because instead of making anything brighter, it applies a transparent white shade over a screen that already has a transparent black shade over it, resulting in a muddy transparent gray. Good job!
Oh, and it should've been obvious to anyone watching that they did this before, but for completeness' sake, here is that video. It stops the instant they meet AIDS Fucker. Consider it Part 0, I guess?
Moon◊The gripping/half-assed finale.
From a youtube comment:
"I could be wrong here but given the symbolic nature of silent hill I believe the story is this: T.J. Was lynched for being gay and black. Dale was one of the lynchers. Given that dale is supposed to be a pastiche of James from silent hill 2, I'm assuming that dale was his lover who partook in the lynching to not himself be killed. Thus he has the mark on his neck,, symbolic of his guilt. He kills the other lynchers to atone. "
Actually not a bad premise. The art and pacing and animation and gameplay are bad, but the creator's heart was in the right place.
New Chip and Ironicus:
I honestly think they're a little hard on Flash Games and some of the stuff they've reviewed was pretty decent for being free games some dude made by himself and posted online.
Agreed, that's actually pretty damn clever and deep.

I thought it was implied that Dale was AIDS FUCKER, though, not TJ. TJ was just another gay victim of the school teacher.
Moon◊In the end, the holder of the auspicious title of AIDS FUCKER is pretty irrelevant, though. Most of the game's monsters seem to tie into things TJ suffered from ala Silent Hill 1 being Alessa's personal hell rather than Harry's.

Just a person. He/him.YES
I hope the L Per does all the stupid bad "endings" too.
During the video slowbeef mentions The Dark Id's LP of Clock Tower 3 as well. I'm rereading it at the moment and it is batshit stupid.
I'm quite confident in my shitposting you knowI don't think it was posted here yet: slowbeef has a Patreon.
Just a person. He/him.That's a shame. This isn't half as entertaining without some of the random ass game overs bad endings.
Part 2.
Funny they keep bringing up that armor. It's the biggest screw you in the game potentially.
Also, this isn't a good game by any degree but holy crap the LPer makes it five times more frustrating to watch than it was to play. I guess he's trying to show everything, but still.

Slowbeef, I know you pop in here from time to time.
Please either switch longplays or drop this early so it doesn't end up like Darkseed 2.
This longplayer sucks.

Thats a bit blunt but yeah I see your point. I guess since its a longplay it has to show as much as possible. Kinda why I'm a little...eh on the subject of longplays mostly. Speedruns and general playthroughs are my kinda thing.
I'm quite confident in my shitposting you know
Can you imagine if it worked like that in real life?
