The Grimoire fail train has no brakes. Hold on to your hats everyone, this shitstorm has just getting started.

>>386788350
>REEEEEEEEEE ONLY PEOPLE THAT SUCK MY COCK ARE ALLOWED IN HERE
What did he mean by this?

>>386787574
Yeah he's hilarious and crazy but Grimoire is pretty good.

Seems like a project that he cares deeply for, I hope it works out for him and that people have fun with his game.

>>386788741
Keep dreaming neanderthal, this game is garbage.

>>386788779
We are having fun though, we're having fun laughing at how badly he fucked his own game while boasting about his nth dimensional intellect.

If eating your own words had a quantity, Cleve would be dining at an all you can eat buffet.

>>386788902
Shut up, Andrew. You fucking furry. Grimoire is great and you can't change that fact.

>>386788902
I love dungeon crawlers, especially old school ones. It's a niche game, designed for people who already enjoy this stuff.

so is there a torrent of this yet?

>>386789023
>/v/ is having fun at the expense of someone else
this isn't quality fun

>>386789123
There's a million of them. But you might want to wait five years when Cleve finally patches his game into not being a broken mess.

>>386789027
Are you neaderthals so retarded that you can only call people who have taste "Andrew?"

No wonder you got cucked into extinction, you probably fucked a bush and thought it was your wife or something.

>>386789151
UUUU

>>386789121
I love dungeon crawlers too, and Grimoire is mediocre at best. It came straight out of 1997 and it shows.

>>386789151
Yes it is, it's the best kind of fun there is. The Germans even have a name for it.

lol cleve is such an autistic weebshit this game is the definition of failure and nu fun .. the art looks like poop, the sounds are fucking lame, CLEVE is a nutjob ("muh thals!") and all these fucking fanboy shill faggots cant stop riding his dick

hilarious what a failed programmer he is ... 20 years on this piece of shit and all that he has to show for it are a bunch of refunds and mishaps ... lol fuck yeah I'm a punk. everyone is laughing at this dude

nobody likes this game. how does that feel Cleve? nobody fucking likes it. watch the sales plummet.

wow, hard to believe this could possibly be any more entertaining lol... strap in guys we got a LONG way to go

>>386789510
>Does it really trigger you that much that Grimoire is a good game?
Even if it was true? Naw, I just love seeing him eating crow after talking such bullshit about how awesome he was as a programmer.

I dunno, I just love seeing arrogant pieces of trash fail once reality crashes around their ego.

>>386789581
At least I didn't waste $36 on a bomb that's probably going to be bricked by its own DRM soon.

>>386789757
Not the greatest distinction, but whatever lol

What the fuck is a "desenvolvedor(a)"?

>>386789257
>>386789458
Recommend me some? I have played a few like Grimrock and SMT but I still prefer Wizardry style puzzles and battles

We should all buy a copy, play 1 hour and then refund it citing save issues and glitches. cleve himself has pointed these out so its a sure bet. then you leave terrible reviews

but what is sape and what is thal

>>386789458
>There are WAY better options nowadays than this fossil though

Are there? I don't think there are. Not if you're going for the specific appeal this guy is going for, which is "give me Wizardry 6, no, I didn't say you could update the engine, I didn't say you could update the graphics or UI or anything, literally give me Wizardry 6 all over again but fresh and new because I've beaten the original 200 times". I don't think there's any other game released recently that does that. Things like Grimrock and whatever always try to make the thing more palatable for the masses, and there's a certain charm in a game that doesn't try that, a game that hates the masses and tells them to go fuck themselves.

>>386789802
I'm just looking forward to the shitstorm when pirates are the only ones who can finish the game once the DRM drops.

>>386789887
>I'm just laughing at misfortune
yeah, we already know you're a wretch

>>386789831
Might and Magic 3+ is a good place to start.

>>386789860
yup, this goyim needs to pay

>>386790020
I've played all of those.

>>386789881
Legend of Grimlock >>>>> Grimoire

Actually has good graphics and sound, doesnt delete your saves and doesnt have a fucking arrogant prick working on it

>>386789881

Just you buddy.

>>386789510
It would be good if it was not full of Undertale tier humor

>>386789658
Is it really "arrogance" if it's the product of delusion born from being absolutely fucking bonkers? Cleve is very clearly legitimately batshit insane.

>>386790172
>thinking a Dungeon Master clone is better than a Wizardry clone
Stay casual.

>>386790205
this.. boggles my mind ppl see that as a bad thing. like why wouldnt you want everyone to enjoy it... fucked up stuff but what do I know I'm just a "sape" RIGHT? this guys a fucking BIGOT

>>386790205

It's pandering to the casuals. Real men aren't supposed to need good graphics or friendly UI.

>>386787756
There is a sickass ramp at the end of the hill though

>>386790451
>It's pandering to the casuals.
How?
>Real men aren't supposed to need good graphics or friendly UI.
You do realize that most old school games didn't have those things because of limitations, not by choice. We don't need to do things as we did 20 years ago, we have the technology to make great games and it's asinine to hold ourselves to the limitations of yesterday when we've evolved so much since then.

It's the difference between "random indie pixelshit platformer #3679" and Shovel Knight.

Yes, because if he was as crazy as he appears then he wouldn't have backpedaled so hard.

Nice strawman knuckle dragger.

>>386787574
literally who

if you aren't willing to sacrifice aspects of your vision to make people comfortable with your game, then maybe you just should do something else with your life... noit pisses me off that anyone would think its ok to just say "oh those people cant get into it" nah dude like thats bigoted

>its literally not
>and even if it is, a fallacy can still be right so you havent actually disagreed with me

i think we need to take a serious look at the idea of "artistic vision" because sually its just an excuse for someone who holds privilege over others to disconnect and restrict them from the levers of power. this isn't a joke... like if we're going to make art, it needs to be for EVERYONE not just for the few

>>386791142
>You must either have shitty UI or make the game play itself
This is basically what you're saying.

>>386791228
>someone who holds privilege over others
>art

But what does this have to do with Cleve?

>>386791228
When anyone could be an artist, "art" lost all meaning. It's so bad, I could literally take a shit in a mayonnaise and sell it for hundreds of bucks if I write a convincing enough pamphlet that modern art snobs could nod their heads at.

(Post) Modernism was a mistake.

>>386791360
making a game with a "bad UI" feeds into a system of oppression that is holding down those who need us the most. people whose live are at stake. we can't just let our movies/games be difficult to understand or challenging. if someone wants to do that its our job to assist them and show them, hey, look, we can't do that anymore. and just give them a friendly reminder, that it isn't gonna fly now.

i undrstand SOME people think that creators should do what they want. but they shouldn't. its 2017 and it's time to EVOLVE!

Which has been more assblasted, Cleve or Randy?

we're all equal in this world. and theres no room for games that separate players into skill classes and say "you are not cut out for this"

that's an old fashioned, outdated way of thinking. we have no room for BIGOTRY

You're removing most of the challenge from the game, so that it might as well be playing itself.

Has he deleted that post? I can't find it.

If anyone is interested I've started an archive of the builds I can find, might be useful for some people (eg the pre-1.2.0.2 versions have a huge chance of dropping backer-only perk keys)

I'm kind of tempted to make a direct ripoff of his game in like six months with GameMaker and put it on Steam for $5 just annoy him.

>>386792253
Enjoy your trojans fuck face. If you don't want to get keylogged, you have to pay the 40 bucks

I want to love this game so badly but everyone who loves it seems keen to make sure that it looks as unappealing as possible.

Go for it. You will be putting work into that than what Cleve put into his game.

>>386793247
Again, there's a difference between making a proper UI and adding auto-aim. Besides, most of the challenge shouldn't come from the fact that you know nothing about how to play the game.

I love this game so much. I've never played it and I've no intention of even touching it in the future, but the drama surrounding Grimoire is just too good.

>it is likely the will remove your account for pirating products you got off Steam
Man I'd love to see the shitstorm if Valve ever did something this retarded.

>>386793913
It came out last Monday.

>>386790172
grimrock is cool, but it took me about as long to beat the first "chapter" of Grimoire (35 hours, after you get the first tablet and climb down the cliff) than the entirety of grimrock 1 and 2 combined (42 hours)

He's fucking nuts dude

>>386795476
Yes, seeing this game crash and burn has been quite the entertainment for me, especially since it's all self-inflicted.

>>386794965
Cleve is legitimately insane, even if he doesn't want to admit it.

>>386795559
Also fun fact, he only thinks he's a neanderthal because he was diagnosed with Aspergers, which he believes is just neanderthal genes surfacing themselves, hence "scientifically proven living fossil"
