That has to be like purposefully cringe right? There's no way otherwise. But honestly imagining the game without the dialogue just makes it kind of seem more lifeless and sterile, the cringey dialogue breathes that crusty life into it
See, the devs of this game were actually geniuses. If you tried to tell someone a game is perfect all the way through, they might not believe you, but if you told them about a single flaw, it's easier to believe
"you are like my sasuke" that line took a few years off my life expectancy for sure. Seems like they are filtering some players out with the dialogue, but also attracting others with it. Interesting game design choice
stole that last part out of my mouth, definitely what they were intending with the dialogue lol i personally adore it i believe the game was made with the motto of "by freaks, for freaks"
@@8Kazuja8 Then whats your definition of satire. That's why the word irony exists. It all the depends of the context and meaning of why you are doing it
@@8Kazuja8 Humor is subjective, including parody. If you don't find it that funny, that alone isn't grounds for criticism. if you were criticizing it for not having an option to skip all dialogue, that'd be more reasonable. But, frankly, any self-serious story you try to write in the context of this game is unlikely to be good, so it may as well be something fun the devs wanted to write. Personally, I much prefer this to some bland self-serious story I'm not invested in one bit. Too many games waste my time with tropey poorly developed stories that do nothing to serve the gameplay.
@@8Kazuja8Things like humor and music tastes are especially subjective. I wouldn't make that argument in just any context. (the crux of your argument is also an assumption that the writing is simply bad, which is one of the most subjective arguments anyone can possibly make) Also, parody doesn't operate on punchlines. The whole point of parody is exaggerating aspects of the original to comedic effect. Saying "it's just as bad as the original" just indicates a lack of appreciation for the ironic nature of a given parody, or parody in general.
The dialogue is the funniest shit in the game. Sometimes I would get tired of gameplay, but keep going just to get some more interactions. I can't see it as anything but intentional. Just as you laugh when meeting edgelords and non-ironic weebs online you do the same in Neon White, it's great.
thinking this shit makes you a 'freak' is the cringiest part. Screams "35 year old man who thinks being attracted to cute alt girls makes him sooooooooooooooo bad and freaky" to me
are u the creator? @@Nathan55411 and i think the very first thing would be being into something at least a little unusual, I guess. this is straight guys and hot girls repeating very popular internet memes that are a little out of date in a 'hints at sex but overall pg-13' setting. as unfreak as you can get.
There's just no way that the dialogue isn't 100% intentional and self-aware of how cringe it is. If you look at it from that self-aware angle it becomes like comedy on a meta-level.
Neon white devs: “oh boy I wish our game just had one damning feature which would lead to it not being 10/10” The shittiest video game dialogue I have heard in a bit: “Perhaps I could be of assistance”
Bah, it's filler. The devs just needed to pad it for the people who can't play without story. There's a skip button always available so I think they knew that most people wouldn't want capcom-tier dialogue.
@@KhangAJ yeah. it really seemed self-aware and campy intentionally. i was snickering at the dumb shit it came up with a lot you can always skip it so i feel like the hate is a liiiiitle overblown. i get why people think it sucks though lmao
The dialogue is great, because it specifically pisses off the kinds of people who unironically use the word "cringe." It could've been more like Furi, where there's almost no story except one dude talking cryptically at you between each boss fight, but there's a different kind of appeal to goofy, cheesy dialogue between an hour of replaying the same parkour trying to shave off 5 seconds.
Yeah, ive seen too much anime with shitty dialogues so this one i could bear through Except for the yellow guy, his photo should be on the wikipedia page for the word "cringe"
the dialogue is cringe on purpose and it loops back around to being funny, but my favourite part is people being mad about comedy not being 'realistic'
People say they hate the dialogue but I personally love it, it fits the late 90’s early 2000 anime atmosphere the game goes for, they quite literally make a Pog joke at some point in the game
I feel like the dialogue is purposefully like that to make internet smart guys who unironically use words like 'cringe' piss and shit their pants. Like firing a gun in your neighborhood to keep property costs low, scares off all the elite stuffy gamer types. Edit: "Does it not sent you straight forward like in Fornite" why would you think it'd be like Fornite???
There should be a mode where the character has his memories and is done with everyone's constant BS, so he just ignores them and skips everything but killing his enemies.
The dialogue feels as if you hired 15 different types of teens to think of quirky dialogue, and I for one am all in for this for the sole reason because of gianni being the voice of the main character
Its funny revisiting this video a year later and reading comments saying "no bro its actually MAKING FUN OF those types!!" But the fans of it are exactly those types.
@@Gamerkat10 Well as someone who barely turned 21, i guess it is pretty ""hip"" with the ""kids"" of my circles, hah. It's just that, companies are usually so slow to catch up on slang, it's funny to see words like Simp in stuff
some parts of the dialogue wasn't as bad as i imagined from the start of the video, and i feel like u have to look at the game from a certain perspective to get a feel for the vibe it wants to give, and the gameplay looks rly fun i wish i had other friends on my list to compare scores with
People that complain for the campy humor are the funniest part,as if everyone needed to explain their reason for playing the game wasn't the obviously filler dialogue
Godtier music Epic character design Excellent parkour design Astonishing atmosphere Unique location plot The dialogue writing? Oh the dialogue writing...
If the dialogue was in Japanese people would be praising it. People don't actually hate dubs because of the voice acting, they hate it because it removes the layer of abstraction that reading provides and forces them to come face to face with just how bad the dialogue was all along.
Honestly, the gameplay looks interesting, but what kept me watching was seeing Albino's soul die like he was playing the Lost and got hit on the Beast in Isaac. That and the mockery that followed.
Watching this in the VODs was strangely addicting, Not stuck in real time so i can just "->" the Dialogue and able to see like the whole trial and error going through the gameplay. Surprised also the level where he missed 1 demon after the 9 balloons at the end and malded wasn't included too kek.
There was an atempt to make characters seem cool. But the line between cool and cringe is verry thin, and this games dialogue wasn't even standing near the border with cool
Dialogue is definitely cringe and cheesy, but by the end of the game i was really digging the characters and the dynamic between them. I will say that the voices are done pretty well, especially white who is voiced by spike spiegel from cowboy bebop, one of the most iconic english anime vas
"You're my Sasuke man" is literally some of the greatest game dialouge ever written
Yeah, like how Morbius said "It's Morbin' time!" and then he morbed all over everyone
@@kamika646 OMG DID YOU SEE MORBIUS TOO??! THAT IS MY FAVORITE PART@!!!

They truly played 5d chess on that one.
Ah yes, the classic hairy arms technique
They also made tattletail
"If i was sober i would have deleted this game" best game
"you are like my sasuke" that line took a few years off my life expectancy for sure.
Seems like they are filtering some players out with the dialogue, but also attracting others with it. Interesting game design choice

@@sonuvox3976 yeah I don't mind the dialogue, but understand that it is very cringy at times
i mean, yo can just always skip the dialogue lol. wonderous why mr. white didn't do that
If you heard what the voice actor sounds like for yellow you'd understand that the dialogue is fitting for his character.
Devs at least picked the most interesting character
There's no way the dialogue isn't written like that on purpose. It's the perfect game to make fun of those persona-fan type of people lmao
kinda edging the line of making fun of em and attracting em tbh

When I meet edge lords and unironic weebs I just get sad. So the diologue in this game just makes me sad.
No thank you, I was considering buying this game, but the dialogue has convinced me not to buy it.
@@iveharzing ok
@@iveharzing boohoo
@@iveharzing It's skippable.
The game is advertised as, "For freaks, by freaks." I'd say the dialogue is closer to post-cringe than cringe.
thinking this shit makes you a 'freak' is the cringiest part. Screams "35 year old man who thinks being attracted to cute alt girls makes him sooooooooooooooo bad and freaky" to me
@@Gamerkat10 please define what makes somebody a freak then. Plus I don't like Violet and you're around 10 years off
are u the creator? @@Nathan55411
and i think the very first thing would be being into something at least a little unusual, I guess. this is straight guys and hot girls repeating very popular internet memes that are a little out of date in a 'hints at sex but overall pg-13' setting. as unfreak as you can get.
Would've been nice to have seen when Violet said "Sowwy" and shattered Albino's soul. The reactions on the fucking dialogue are so funny
I demand a link to this
I always thought that dialogues were intentionally bad. To be as bad as humanly possible, just to turn to the greatest story imaginable
Maybe. In the begging you don't care much about the story but it gets more and more interesting as you progress
There's just no way that the dialogue isn't 100% intentional and self-aware of how cringe it is. If you look at it from that self-aware angle it becomes like comedy on a meta-level.
ehhhh does it
A fragment of my soul died every time I heard a line of dialogue. 8/10 👍
My condolences. I'm sorry that you have to witness all that.
I feel a sadistic sense of happiness from that
Neon white devs: “oh boy I wish our game just had one damning feature which would lead to it not being 10/10”
The shittiest video game dialogue I have heard in a bit: “Perhaps I could be of assistance”
Im imagining the ow version where mercy fly's down to the kid
the shitty dialogue makes it better
it's a filter and it's working as intended.

Neon white devs: how do we make our game not perfection?
The dialogue: The Deep
Thank you for this literary masterpiece, Albingus.
the dialogue is absolutely intentional, because it would be a disservice if you weren't cringing/laughing at people that take themselves too seriously
ngl i loved how cheesy and dumb the dialogue was
true, i'm pretty sure that's intentional
it's so cringe to the point where it becomes good again
@@KhangAJ yeah. it really seemed self-aware and campy intentionally. i was snickering at the dumb shit it came up with a lot
you can always skip it so i feel like the hate is a liiiiitle overblown. i get why people think it sucks though lmao
you should try out fashion police squad, it also has that dumb dialogue, but also really good old school doom gameplay
I thought Neon white was a reference to Albinos skin tone

i learned to cope with the dialogue, sometimes is so bad that it can be a bit funny -but like, a really tiny bit-
Yeah, ive seen too much anime with shitty dialogues so this one i could bear through
Except for the yellow guy, his photo should be on the wikipedia page for the word "cringe"
This game is great cuz it makes you want to speedrun the gameplay AND the dialogue.
reading this dialogue is like shoving a toothpick under your nail and smashing it with a hammer, but with your brain
the dialogue is cringe on purpose and it loops back around to being funny, but my favourite part is people being mad about comedy not being 'realistic'
Dudes unable to get fine irony be like: "Akschually dialogues is very cringy! "
Guys the game's advertising literally says "for freaks" don't be suprised that it's weird and cringey, that's the point.
I 100% believe that the writer know what the fuck they were writing and this dialogue is like a mind test if you can handle it
People say they hate the dialogue but I personally love it, it fits the late 90’s early 2000 anime atmosphere the game goes for, they quite literally make a Pog joke at some point in the game
agreed
Anyone else realize that the VA for neon white also voices spike spiegel

u seem pressed
If you think this is cringe you don't understand cinema
There should be a mode where the character has his memories and is done with everyone's constant BS, so he just ignores them and skips everything but killing his enemies.
the dialogue in this game is fucking hilarious, peak cringe comedy. one of my favorite parts of it, really
10:12 brainrot inducing dialogue

*"You're my Sasuke man."* 🔥🔥🖋️
how it feels to read twitch chat
For the record the devs intended to make all the dialogue cringy satire. I would be struggling to get through them as well lol.
The dialogue is perfectly paired with the voice acting. It seems shitty because it's being read in a vacuum.
The dialogue is meant to filter out the casuals.
naah the dialogue is satire i love it
i fucking love the dialogue LMFAO
By the will of Allah, I shall find a mod that gets rid of this dialogue
I wonder how many people in the comments think the dialogue is cringy just because Albino thinks it is?
I unironically love the dialoge lol. Nice to have some modern tropes and references and such
This kind of boomer-sounding comment is exactly why this dialogue is cringe. It's like, what a 35 year old thinks might be 'hip with the kids'
@@Gamerkat10 Well as someone who barely turned 21, i guess it is pretty ""hip"" with the ""kids"" of my circles, hah. It's just that, companies are usually so slow to catch up on slang, it's funny to see words like Simp in stuff

Truly a pogchamp video. It is indeed pepehands.
Neon white momen
Machine girl
Seeing albino malding through these catastrophic dialogues is juste great
say mr bino, what is the name of the song your editor uses when you kill you own bitrate in the funny isaac game
“Im a better voice actor” THAN STEVE BLUM, albino man….
local schizophrenic reads garbage dialogue written by a 12 year old, 7 dead, countless injured
Wish more would talk about the incredible music by machine girl
embrace the cringe, and you will truly be free.
some parts of the dialogue wasn't as bad as i imagined from the start of the video, and i feel like u have to look at the game from a certain perspective to get a feel for the vibe it wants to give, and the gameplay looks rly fun i wish i had other friends on my list to compare scores with
The dialogue fucking sucks but the game itself is a 10/10 parkour game
R key simulator
Commentary youtuber's background gameplay lookin game
It’s called parkour bruh
People that complain for the campy humor are the funniest part,as if everyone needed to explain their reason for playing the game wasn't the obviously filler dialogue
I really don't know what Albino expected when he seen screenshots lol
If even Albino and his aids speech thinks this is cringe we're truly doomed
The dialogue in this game is amazing, you just don't like fun.
Godtier music
Epic character design
Excellent parkour design
Astonishing atmosphere
Unique location plot
The dialogue writing? Oh the dialogue writing...
i don’t know what the hell this game is, but i love Albino, he just makes things so entertaining
God tier ost vs cringe writing
whoever said "gmod darkrp server dialogue" in the chat is right

Very cool, very swag, I like it.
Mr. Bingus voice acting encapsulates the cringe of the dialog perfectly.
Makes sense they're all called neon because you can't make chemistry with them lel
There was an atempt to make characters seem cool. But the line between cool and cringe is verry thin, and this games dialogue wasn't even standing near the border with cool
MACHINE GIRL AGAHHHHHHHHH‼️‼️‼️
I've played through the game without reading a single word of dialogue. Even collected and redeemed all the gifts 💀
Finally, XQC playing Walter White
One of the only times I got to watch the stream live!!
"Story bad"
And thats, ladies and gents, what we call, a beta male take
This feels like a game made by a CSGO veteran but designed and written by a 16 year old who just discovered DeviantArt.

"You are my Sasuke" why. just why
The dialogue is 100% intentionally cringe
I can only hear Brimstone from Valorant when Neon White speaks
Albino turned into reversed LTG and never streamed after that.
Albino is fucking genius. He feels bad when he gets golden medal, wtf
Machine Girl 👍👍👍
this video was totally hecking awesome
Me who likes the story and dialouge (the story goes hard imo)
i came here for the machine girl music ngl
It’s so funny that the only thing holding this game back from being a slam dunk is the awful dialogue
i asked during one of the streams why albino was skiping the dialoge with out knowing the cringe
Glad machine girl worked on the OST
Steve blum right out the gate.
the soundtrack in this game is magnificent, machine girl really did a great job making it
