I don’t know what you’re talking about. Asking professionals to help find your child in a facility filled with giant murderous monsters is a WAAAY worse idea than just, wandering around aimlessly.
All im saying is that if the euphoric brothers embraced the weird absurdism that trys to be horror and instead used that absurdism for comedy I would love these games because that explosion in the dream segment made me laugh so hard

@@pmester228 I kid you not, the dev of choo choo charles approved the idea of having him in the dream sequence and also confirmed that the two games take place in the SAME UNIVERSE. When asked why, he said "who wouldn't"
it's such a shame that tf2 devs released their update right before this banger dropped... now it's gonna be overshadowed by the ban-ballistic game of the century...
I really wish some other indie games got even a quarter of the coverage this game gets. So many incredible gems just not yet discovered. The worst part is because all this games coverage is negative, the creators are almost incentivized to make every sequel worse than the last.(not that it ever felt like they cared to make a quality product)
the fact that people say this is a good game makes me want to do the sayori cosplay. Like Indie horror right now is nothing but a joke. Hello neighbor,Poppy Playtime and Garten of Ban Ban. At least Poppy Playtime has effort compared to Ban Ban. i know poppy playtime has a big team,but the creators of garten of ban ban have enough money to hire people to make the game better. But no they just keep going. They are already planning to make a Garten of Ban Ban 5 and 6. i have lost hope in indie horror.
As someone who also became addicted to seeing how bad this series could get, I agree that the negative attention does take away from obscure games with actual effort/love put into them. I don't believe the theories of GOBB being 'purposely bad' from the start, but theyre likely doing it now because they realized this negative attention is benefiting them in a way? Either way, its going to get to a point where most people will get bored of covering/watching coverage of GOBB and we're all gonna collectively forget it was a thing until years later.
I really want Mark to direct and produce it, I would throw in some money to a fundraiser for that shit. Imagine if Garten of Kino outpreforms Fnaf in the box office I would do a back flip
This is my 1st time seeing gameplay of this travesty, and banbans silly goofy face with the most monotone voice you've ever heard is wonderful. Peak voice acting
I died when Banban was like "wait... No... NabNab" With the most emotionless voice in the universe. How in world did the ephoric brothers record this and think "yeah, this is amazing voice acting" 😭

@@enochsadventures baseless hate?

They also attack their user for refunding their game.
I’ve heard the devs are friends and judging by their twitter the Choo Choo Charles’ devs are chill with it so fair enough they probably did get permission
I really enjoyed cyber's performance in this game, it's honestly insane how they got their hands on motion capture tech so she can play the kangaroo as if she was acting in a movie! Rockstar games level stuff right here!
They missed a chance to make Queen Bounciella's castle a bouncy castle (cuz she is a kangaroo and kangaroos are really iconic from jumping really high). It fits way more better for kindergarten than a stock castle model which looks out of place. But still best walking simulator so far 10/10, should win GOTY 2023
The fact that this game is $10 and lasts 1 and a half hours when games like Terraria can be played for hundreds of hours for the same price shows it all
The toad guy and bittergiggles voice actors are genuinely amazing, kind of sucks that they’re going to be associated with this game. Idk who they are, but I hope their talents get put to good use
It's true masterpiece that makes you feel lots of emotions as you watch it. It drags you in more than any other game, with even red dead redemption 2 not coming close. Without even a single bad mention that can come towards this game , it has changed my life more than anything.
it’s so nice that wee se all the characters in this game like. Zumbo Sauce, Ban Ban, Nap Napt, Banbanina, Slow Ceiling, I forgot his name the Fwog Dude, Tu Tu Talas, o piluh bowd, tata bowd, I forgot his name the little bulbrery man, Queen Bouncelas, Za jestuh or Bitte Gigles, and even teenage mutant t-rex corgi.. turns out that abomination of a creature I called “teenage mutant t-rex corgi” is a cat 😐
I sure hope they just keep bringing nabnab back just to have him "die" in the most random ways possible. first it was by getting a girlfriend. then he got banned by the banban himself. what's next? he gonna get crushed by JUMBO JOOOSSSSHHH!!!!?

@@ackton Yes good, so make that. I'm not being upset. If you're passionate about it then make your own million dollar game series like the euphoric bros.

If you hate Garten Of BanBan, here's a tip: STOP FUCKING TALKING ABOUT IT Like, you know that's what they want right? They just want any type of publicity and that's it. So the best way to stop Garten Of BanBan from succeeding is to not even talk about it at all. Instead, play actually good horror games that deserve the attention that this game has. Play Lost In Vivo, play Nightmare of Decay, play Golden Light. Literally play any other game other than this garbage if you don't want to see it flourish

However, at this point, basically any idea could work if you put it like that (have key cards to open doors, which is just not that rare of an idea but is way to vague)
The game will always be bad, even with all the ideas you said there, the game will remain another generic horror mascot with the same "colorful thing with sharp teeth" and walking simulator with puzzles just to say the game is big. They've learned that they get success from it, and they'll keep squeezing the same lemon until people realize that this game isn't worth buying, but unfortunately that won't happen so soon.
