Doublefine's Trenched

I dunno. Not really my sort of thing, but I can see how it could be fun.

Meh.

Looks manly, so not many people here will like it.

It may be good or it may be awful. Either way I think Ghost will like it.

Damn...

Check the blogs, then edit that post.

Yeah, for real.

I like the look of it, but I'm a sucker for Mech games with that whole "phallic gun mounted on metal legs" aesthetic. It should be fun.

1. Game could be fun, probably won't be.
2. Double Fine really like calling their games contextless verbs, don't they?
3. When I first saw this thread's title I thought Double Fine had gone bust.

I love mech games, hopefully this turns out awesome. Its also published by Microsoft, so hopefully they will market the shit out of it, getting a ton of sales.

I parse Trenched as an adjective and Stacking as a gerund.

Shit, I'm that predictable?

You have to ask?

Then again, I've never much liked any of doublefine's games, so who knows.

You feculent little troll.

Ze!

Well, hopefully this will cheer up OANST at least a bit.

But seriously, you didn't like Psychonauts? I try not to beat on that corpse-horse too much, but for real? How could you?

I agree. Not liking Psychonauts??? Do you not have a soul Strike Witch?

'Didn't like' I can live with. If she disliked it, I say we burn her.

Who the hell dislikes Psychonauts, but like Gundam? She's got it all backwards!

Trenched. More proof that anything is awesome when you throw robots/mechs into something. Plus, It's Double Fine. It has to be funny.

Brutal Legend wasn't funny.

BURN

It was okay. Nothing really super though.

This does not surprise me.


And that sentence may well be the worst insult I have ever paid out on anyone.

It was so funny. Unfortunately I have no anecdotal evidence and fuck if I'm looking anything up on Youtube.

Oh okay. I was worried someone would smudge my golden idol of it if they felt differently than I did. Phew.

It's more of a tower-defence game with shooty-fighty aspects. Looks like it has a reasonable backstory too.

Well, I think it's going to be fun/ny. Anyone who doubts that will promptly be destroyed.

And I thought I had to go to DoubleFine's forums for this kind of loyalty.

I still say it could go either way. Story looks imaginative, gameplay doesn't.

Trenched will be released on June 22nd. It's gonna be 1200MSP. The intro:

Looks really fun from this preview, likely going to get this.
