Afterparty (follow-up to Oxenfree; PC/PS4/SW/X1) Gameplay
- Thread starter Dandy
- Start date
I quite enjoyed my 'no talk' run in Oxenfree. It makes EVERYONE hate you. I hope we have that sort of shit in this game as well.
Oxenfree was excellent imo.
I didn't know anything about this game. Awesome. I'm def getting it.

Awesome thanks, I'll stay away from this thread for now then just in case I see something I shouldn't.
Reminds me that I should go and play Oxenfree.
Looks fantastic, don't even need to watch gameplay, that trailer just oozes atmosphere and awesomeness.
It looks amazing. I didn't like Oxenfree, which had decent dialogue, but pretty bad voice acting. I thought that maybe the dev could do something that I enjoy someday, though, and maybe this is it. I'm interested in this.
Just finished Oxenfree yesterday. Not sure how I felt about it. To be clear I really enjoyed the story and Alex was super endearing. Soundtrack was also outstanding. Overall I think this was a rare case where the sum of the parts was actually greater than the whole. As in I wouldn't say I absolutely loved the game but I loved many parts about the game without disliking any. Weird. Guess I'd call it like 7/10 and worth my $10 easily.
Totally in for their next game. Can't wait.

My jaw is on the fucking floor. This pushes every Narrative button I enjoy, and I want to Preorder it IMMEDIATELY.
Love the voice acting and pacing--Oxenfree was great at capturing awkward interruptions and pauses, which made the characters feel idk more human I guess? Glad they stuck with that.
Wondering if they're using hell as a metaphor for life after undergrad and how shitty it can be. Can't wait to find out.

"We're fucking dead and there's a God" made me giggle. I liked Oxenfree, and I kinda like the humor they're going for here.
Doesn't look like something I would play. But here is a third party game for switch owners.... right?
Super excited for this. Oxenfree was one of my favorite games of the gen. The dialog felt so natural and real. It was also awesome to get messages on Xbox live from random people playing the game asking for hints because they same my GT and decisions in their play through.
This is one of the few Switch games that get over 70% discount frequently.
It's amazing, and the ending was trippy as hell. I loved it.
There are some shortcomings, there is very , very little action, so be warned.
Lola is a 'sarcastic girl too cool to care' stereotype to the maximum.
Am I in Hell? Pfft, whatever.

I loved Oxenfree, and from what we've seen, this looks very similar gameplay wise. I'm really interested in the drinking mechanic they showed, it seems like it opens up different dialogue routes depending on how intoxicated you are.
This looks fun and I'll be checking for it when it comes out. I wasn't certain if I liked Oxenfree at first but my second playthrough was enjoyable and the more I think about it the more I think it was a fine game.
That dialogue during the college party though, lol. It has the same kind of mild cringe to it that Oxenfree had IMO, of 30 and 40 something writers working on teenage characters. Anecdotal of course but nobody I knew back in college talked like that! (Then again I think most of the dialogue on modern television is trite as well, so...)

The dialogue thing is by design. You're supposed to interrupt people and not take long carefully considering every possible consequence. It's simulating how conversations actually go in real life.
I know it is, I explained as much. I just don't like this particular design, since in real life I don't have three choices I have to read before I decide whether to interrupt or not.
Are you saying you never interrupt your friends? You all always finish a sentence before another person speaks, every time?
As far as I know this is a game...and I don't like this, as if it's my opinion or something.
