dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Ngl, this is one of the reasons keeping me away from playing their games. Am I curious? Absolutely! Do I want to go through an entire game with that style of dialogue? Hell no.

Naah it's not always like that and I'm exaggerating.

The games are good and not very long if you ever want to find out. Besides even if sometimes the dialogue goes into this territory, it's only in certain moments.

99% of the dialogue is more silly antics. If you've ever played a Mother game you'll know what to expect. Absurdist comedy followed by the occasional emotional stab in the heart.

I make fun of Toby Fox (out of love mostly, he is extremely tumblr in the best and worst ways), but his games are legitimately some of my favourites ever made, and this is coming from someone who has played way too many games.
