[@villainkaiju]

remember how people turned Banban into a infamous popular meme, and a year later they still show no effort or improvements nor even take any criticism?

[@TheGeladoo]

Why did people even start thinking otherwise? Every BanBan game is just low effort cashgrabs, they're charging more and more money for each chapter and they're all still filled with unnecessary padding to make it 2 hours so you can't refund. Feels like they just asked random youtubers to do voice acting as damage control and now everyone thinks BanBan is cool suddenly?? It's still just as sloppy as it was before.

[@DustD.Reaper]

@@TheGeladoo the problem is that it feels like the games are made in a way to benefit as much as possible from the Streisand effect. They put out another low effort chapter and people keep trashing it online which gives the games a platform to exsist on.

[@pyshrub]

So I'm currently in school for game design. Thanks to what I've learned, i can verify that your question of "why" is extremely valid. Resetting a variable, that being the state of the cauldron, would normally be one of the first things you can get working. Stopping overlap of map tiles would also be one of the first things you'd solve. But my question overall: this obviously wasn't play tested, why!? This looks like a beta, an early access, yet is a full release?

[@MistyTheCat-n9j]

this is completely valid. should have been kept free as a beta and released once they fixed the bugs.

I agree. Having the cauldron seemingly be random chance is dumb. Like, it should just do it, or not. The fact that it sometimes just doesn't work is bad game design 100%.

[@nihilisticpancake308]

But why does the range increase????????

[@impishlyit9780]

@@nihilisticpancake308 Probably because the system tracks the entity's location differently when it dies. You can tell from the first attempt that it no longer tracks distance relative to the actual enemy model. If I had to guess, the game world is divided into some sort of grid-like partitions, and it's defaulting the entity's location to be the grid/cell itself once the entity dies, or something like that. If true, the distance calculation is checking whether you're within attack range of the edge of the cell, which gives a larger total area. It's very strange behavior, but given their use of default assets glued together, it's the kind of thing I could see happening.

[@ChickenMan789]

Person with the ability to play games and uses that ability. I can hereby confirm that this game is horrible for like 10 more dollars.

Genuinely, this game series should have just been a working point to improve their skills and then maybe redone with better story and just not having the flashbacks at all. I feel like all of these games should have just been privated and then they play test it and proceed to upgrade it anywhere they could. And honestly that's where I thought the series was going. But after the third game I started to realize this is two Brothers genuinely trying to make a game. I don't get why they feel like they need to release five different games in just under a year. Mob games has been going for maybe like 3 years now with only three games soon to be four in the main series but there's a reason it's much more scary, fun, interesting and has an actual storyline. It's because it genuinely has work into it. It's not rushed at all

I disagree. Banban is a post modern masterpiece, similar to that of YIIK. It's deep commentary on the sacrifices and lengths parents would go for their children is incredible, within the leagues of God of War and the Last of Us. I think you guys just need to put in more time to understand the true meaning of all these games. You gotta play for at least 2 hours (or however long the steam refund period is) to truly get the core message of the games. I think you guys just don't get it, and that's fine.

[@TheGeladoo]

"Crappy game by some beginner dev" still applies to the Banban devs, they're too lazy to learn anything past beginner level, because even with their current level they can already make enough money by exploiting impressionable kids with their mascot horror slop, no reason to put up more effort.

[@YannickJur]

You were completely correct with your thought though.

[@ChickenMan789]

Funny how Bam Ban Ban has been going at the dev thing for nearly two straight years and yet hasn't made any signs of improvement. Their animations are free to get base models The animation literally looks like something your average Joe could make on blender in like an hour and 90% of the game is just talking with some goofy puzzles. The mouse on the characters don't even move. In fact, the characters will just be frozen still whenever they talk. It feels like I'm just talking to a statue if I ever play the games. The seventh one is the only game that I could see being semi-decent and it would only be decent if it was made by someone who just started developing. Kind of crazy how they can just pump out these games but never have any sign of improvement

As a Game Art major focused in both 2D and 3D art, Garten of BanBan and the Euphoric Brothers piss me off so much. For context, I can make this ENTIRE game in a day AND finish all 200 or whatever chapters of BanBan in two days. I could go for hours about what they do wrong but basically what they're doing is the equivalent of toasting bread and selling it like it's avocado toast, but in actuality there is no avocado, no egg, and hell they even microwaved the bread for fifteen seconds and saying they baked the bread from scratch but it's just the cheapest Walmart bread. I say this because they used premade assets/sounds/walking/etc. Which is fine, but I use that stuff, me, someone who isn't selling it and at most using it to showcase other things as a portfolio. As someone who has made a game before, using premade, free assets and then selling it for MONEY is disgraceful unless you only use it for small things and you're a small company. I KNOW Euphoric Brothers has the money to hire people to make it , I KNOW they have the time and resources to make it, but they don't and I hate that people actually call Euphoric Brothers good developers and BanBan is a popular game when it should die off. And don't even get me started on the models. I know what software they make it out of, it SCREAMS Zbrush, and a first timer like me can make a near replica of a human body just by watching tutorials ALONE, and sure maybe they wanna make blobs for some reason but they don't do the most IMPORTANT step which is putting in extra effort to make it low poly so their game doesn't look like THIS with 10 GBs worth of data. That's why all their models are high poly, because they don't transfer it to a different software like Maya or Blender and (I forgot the term) rebuild it with low polies. I've never seen something be more of a cash grab, all of their stuff SHOULD be made free with how little effort they put into it, so why do youtubers (not Spiff of course but other ones like UhYeah for example) give them love and money when they don't deserve it? It's not even an ironically bad game anymore, it's just crap and they're ruining the future of games. They NEED to be kicked out of the game development industry, because I refuse to work with these types of people

[@asdffdsa8885]

For real, it's infuriating that people still give these games any attention at all. I'm sure even this video was enough to get them a few extra sales, even with Spiff shitting on the game and showing what a waste of time and money it is, because "haha bad game funny". The saddest thing is that Euphoric Brothers are far from the worst kind of dev out there, I'd still rank them above mobile game trash and AI-driven slop.

[@oakleyves]

[@kelvinferreira3767]

Pretty much a pair of weird developers who seemed to start with weird, if genuine games, that saw the popularity of one of their projects and have been milking it ever since. I don't like to speculate intentionality, but a lot of the design of their games seems to be aimed at wasting the player's time and people says it's specifically to avoid Steam refunds, the plot and quality of gameplay is always substandard even when it has seen a mayor improvement between games. Basically, I wouldn't buy their games, they seem iffy and even when they're given the benefit of the doubt due to unjust harassment and ridicule, they're not exactly shining with potential.

The funniest part of this is how they tried to get more players by doing what Content Warning did by making the game free for a limited time on release, except it didn't work as well

[@obsidianflight8065]

making a game free on release to make it paid later is a risky move if your game is good, people will want to buy it once it isn't free if it is just "average" people will go "well why did you make it paid after it was free? I'm not going to play it now" and in this games case it will probably be a game with a cult following, or it will die completely

[@abaddonarts1129]

I really don't want to just dump on developers because of how they make a game, but I DO want to make it clear that the game looks to be at a comparable quality to the unfinished Capstone Games at my College, where some people should not have been in the class with the skill level they were at. It's really interesting how much there is there that I was told by a professor *Not* to do, and here's my thoughts: - There are many default functions in Unreal Engine that they actually *used* but also don't seem to be implemented or balanced well. Like the run movement comes with the game package, but all the footprints are stock and the sound stacks to an annoying level - The interaction cooldown shouldn't be an issue at all, I wonder if there's a variable they didn't set or just didn't care to change? It's not lag, it looks to actually just be a manual delay or something that is consistently late/taking a while - The lighting is hella burnt out by default with a bit of odd shaders. Is it intended to be a hand camera of sorts? The text font is so small it actually is barely readable in this video on the highest settings, and you have to be face to face with it in order to read it. Really interesting choice. - Enemies not turning off on death is... it's the easiest thing??? Just delete him when he dies or disable all AI when his HP is

[@Souls_29]

Idk how they always make their games look so oily

[@ona512]

so i think what happens with the monsters is that only the mesh of the body itself gets ragdoll'd and the rest of the monster stays in place and attacks like it's still alive. So if you threw the monster's body in an explosion far enough, there would be an invisible stationary monster where the monster itself was defeated. I have seen this oversight happen in oldschool egglikes a lot.
