We cover both handheld and video games platforms and the site has grown into one of the biggest gaming sites in the continent. Instead, it's a collection of sloppy, snide one-liners.Gamersyde is a commercial multiplatform web portal based in Europe, with hundreds of thousands of visitors each month from all over the world. This could have been a smart and timely game about dealing with and overcoming mental health challenges.
They're not enough, though, especially when the game comes to an abrupt and unsatisfactory end, promising to deliver resolution in a separate download a few weeks from now. If anything saves Introvert Quest from itself, it's the nicely done 2D character paintings, the funny music cues, the clever Pokémon-like duels, and the sweetness of the main character himself. Yup, everything's here but "f-k," and this sailor-like language is used to explore a series of bad-taste jokes regarding things like prostitution and STDs. Worse, it's peppered with more gratuitous cursing than a Tarantino film. Though the dialogue occasionally offers some amusing, even insightful commentary about society's expectations, it's poorly written. It's more because his life consists of being knocked around by name-calling strangers, a self-absorbed older sister, and a sadistic psychologist who shames his patients instead of treating them.
It's really impossible to overstate this sloppily made adventure's insensitivity.īryce, the young hero, is pathetic, and it's not because of his mental problems. It starts by conflating personality types with psychological disorders and proceeds to paint the hero (who's introverted and agoraphobic) as an outcast and a freak. This game ignores a golden opportunity to address mental health issues and instead makes mean-spirited fun of the people who suffer from them.
