I'm pretty sure this game is one of the Top 5 Worst of All Time. God your LP cracks me up.

What is odd is that this is probably the only game he made that actually had a good idea behind it.

Y Testiment 1 and 2 were terrible ideas (Not in the sense that it is a religious game... I am sort of a bigger person then that)

I mean... if there is one game that could be remade into a good game it would be Hard Time. Mind you not a large and complex game, but it certainly could have been done better then it has.

I REALLY hope I am thinking of the right game >_<

Goodness no way... It isn't even the worst of the games that guy made (not even second).

At least this game FEELS like a small storyless sandbox game where everything you do is ultimately pointless and everyone is unfairly and maliciously against you... Just like prison! (see what I mean by "It at least had somewhat of a good idea behind it"?)

It's not just that he made a shitty game. Lots of people make shitty games, and I'm sure some of them aren't assholes.

It's that he made a shitty game, then constantly praises himself for creating an 'excellent' game. From Detonate's original thread, we have this LP. Read the first entry, which contains snippets of text from MDickie's own preview of the game. Yeah... he spends a paragraph bragging that he figured out multiple save slots:o

No no no, not multiple save slots, multiple universes!

My mistake, you're absolutely correct! Multiple parallel universes are far more challenging than multiple save slots.


...here's a hypothetical. Assuming an infinite number of parallel universes, containing an infinite number of parallel MDickies, what are the chances that one of them produced a non-crap game?

Well, I asked the local supercomputer. But it just spat out something about an infinite string of zeroes before blowing up.

I will admit... "Hard time is a terrible game because the creator thinks it was so great and he sucks" is a pretty good reason.

Also... washing away scars? Seriously?

I know people hate having their character disfigured but the POINT of this game should be what the prison does to you over time. It should be a brutal and unfair game where you have to dirty yourself just to be left alone showing the scars on your body and soul. Having gangs and guards brutally beating you up for little-no reason.

Maybe I am projecting...

If I can hope for one thing in this world, it's that MDickie reads one of these LPs and has his massive ego deflated a bit. I can dream, right?

Sorry about the lack of an update today but I was busy, rest assured however that the next update will be very weird.

The one redeeming quality of any of his games was the secret Satanic Fireballs in Making of a Prophet. Those were the only legitamately fun things in that game.
