The Curse of Anon Babble

Anon Babble overhypes the hell out of an upcoming game

The game ends being mediocre at very best

Dark Souls 2
Metal Gear Solid V
Devil May Cry 5
Cyberpunk 2077
Dragon's Dogma 2
Elden Ring
And now Expedition 33 is just the most recent victim of the curse.

I wonder if the curse is due to the board's negativity towards the hobby.

Anon Babble never overhyped this game.

I never saw a single thread for Emasculation 33 prior to April 2025.

E33 was pure psyop and viral marketing, nothing else.

all of these are good

There was moderate interest at best in e33 before the on release shill campaign.

Shill campaign

Stop fighting demons in your head, anon.

Dark Souls 2 was a great game and the only criticisms against it are autistic shit nobody cares about (muh windmill) or the consequences of a rereleased version.

new thing bad
old thing good

You won't gaslight anyone here saar.

almost all posts are positive and hyped

what happened?

Cope

the people saying "this came out of nowhere" are fucking frauds who don't pay attention to actual videogame discussion or news

I remember seeing those posts and actual anons asking wtf is this gay looking shit, the UI looked bad, it looks woke etc etc. It just goes to show how fucking infested this board has become with absolute normiefag drones who get turnt by some shilling and their vtuber whore or eceleb of choice tallking about it.

You are all miserable fucking losers. Get off this board and actually enjoy your life.

Stop it Farquaad. We were here. In all these threads until you got exposed like the deranged faggot you are. It's all there, in the archives.

Viral marketing is stronk. Dave the Diver was another really impressive one. Resident Evil 2 Remake was the most viral.

Anon Babble never overhyped this game.

Literally false.

Take your meds schizo. I'm not your boyfriend.

It ended up being well received, so by law Anon Babble must be contrarian and therefore turned on it

The game ended being bad.

what games do you consider to be good/great, and not mediocre?

I also remember plenty of threads where anons explicitly said that E33 would be the last chance they would give to the videogame industry as a whole.
I wonder what are they thinking about. Maybe they will sell me their consoles super cheap?

ubisoft jeets are working overtime trying to make everyone hate on this game

Dark Souls 2

You idiot. Anon Babble hates DSII, and it's pretty good. DSIII gets jerked off, and Elden Ring is the absolute KING of being sucked off by Anon Babblejeets.

Expedition 33 is absolutely in the same camp as DSIII and ER though.

more like tendies but probably both

looks woke

What exactly is woke about it? That it has a woman in it? Both protagonists are white dudes (french). MAGA trannies need to stop posting here and go back to /ptg/ or something

nd now Expedition 33 is just the most recent victim of the curse.

you are delusional are writing narratives in your head so you can be right about something you made up.
Anon Babble probably has the most pushback on this game despite the praise whereas everywhere else it has near universal praise.

That praise comes from people using it to shit on the big developers.
Remember, all of those 5/5 and Thumbs up reviews came out as soon as the game was released, when a RPG is a long game that can't be beaten on an afternoon.

reviews came out as soon as the game was released

thats literally every game.

Which makes those reviews absolutely worthless in the long run

Even tripe like Dustborn got a very high score. Why should E33's score be considered legitimate?

it ahs a woman in it

Could have fooled me

So you hate french women?

Stuff like Devil May Cry 5 was disappointing.
But E33 is more like Cyberpunk 2077 in that it's fucking held together with string. It's Jank as fuck and looks horrible.

Are you fucking insane? In no way is expedition 33 on the level as cyberpunk in terms of jank or bugs.
The most you'll see in expedition is some traversal jank but its hardly that bad.

E33 wasn't overhyped. It released, wasn't just good but great, and word of mouth happened.

How much are Ubi, Activision, Tendo and EA paying for shitting on E33 so that they can still sell much worse games for twice the price?
But you really should change your tactics. Anyone with a brain will go to Steam and look at reviews by people who had to at least play those games. From your list only DD2 has bad reviews.
Also, a funny coincidence, that none of those games are on any Nintendo platform. Curious.

I never saw a single thread

Why would you just admit to being a newfag?

The good turned out to be good, so they (not antisemitic, by the way) had to start shitting on it.

really horrible visual artifacts, transparency problems and low quality noisy rendering on everything, (try putting the camera under water and most of the screen goes black)
bad animations, bad programing, fps and shader hitches, pop in & texture streaming problems.

Nothing is as bad as cyberpunk but this is the most technically botched game I've seen in years.

All of those are good games and easily above mediocre.

Stuff like Devil May Cry 5 was disappointing.

Yeah, must have been disappointing that you couldn't play this 10/10 on your Switch. Among "character action games" it's second only to DMC3.

I played it on my PC.
V is trash and the face scanned visuals are fucking repulsive.
It's a casualized downgrade from DMC4 and the game needs mods just to approach the same depth, fun and creative freedom.
We in the community should never have needed to mak a breaker switcher mod. That should have been a fucking basic feature after the first play through. I'm not slogging through your shitty slow menus and loading screens to go arm shopping every mission.
