      Hello.
      1. I do have a youtube channel where I talk about stuff. It is just not this one for anonymity reasons.
      2. This is not at all about homophobia.
      Homosexuality is a concept around sexual attraction which has nothing to do with the looks of a person. People who love the same sex as they are themself still look like normal people. The characters in this game however show for example women with beards. Thats not homosexuality. Instead it goes down the transgender road which is a completely different thing. It revolves around the concept of "sexual identity" and not sexual attraction.
      Showing and implying that it is just as regular of a thing as brushing your teeth for women to have heavy and thick beads like men is incorrect. They dont.
      Men can love women or men and thats fine. Woman can love men and women thats fine. But men cannot *become* women and women cannot become men. Thats however what these characters indicate.
      Implying that sex is something that may change (at will) is completely wrong, utterly preposterous and on top of that dangerous. Therefore critizising attempts to normalise this idea even in childish games is justified. This has absolutely nothing to do with homosexuality (therefore nothing to do with homophobia) and aims at a completely different topic based on the absurd idea of changing sex at will.
      But yes, the trans-idea has successfully captured empathy for homosexuals by disrespectfully adding itself into their lineage which was a clever coup (LGBTQAI+). But its wrong, those things have nothing to do with each other.
      Based on that I have to reject your accusation as wrong.
      Happy to read your reply.
      Best regards

      @@Liwet. Pikmin, right. I totally forgot. I heard of that game, but I have never played it because it's not on PC. At least it didn't used to be. I heard it was compared to Overlord before. Overlord is an RPG dark comedy game. You play as a dark lord who's just woken up and need to repair his castle and reestablish his dark domain. I don't know what Pikmin is compared to that though. Probably not very similar in story or tone.

      ​@@Freshmaeker Inspiration maybe, but Dungeon Keeper is a deep simulation strategy game not a story rich RPG and they're nothing alike execution-wise. I found Dungeon Keeper boring after a while, but Overlord is one of my favorites. Maybe a couple of modern indie titles are now rediscovering how a 3rd person dungeon crawler, army commander and looter action game could be merged, but the concept is very niche. Not many players liked Overlord because of the clunky controls. I considered it part of the fun.

    Sorry, but I am unsure if giving every game you played - especially if only played for a couple of hours - a video.
    I guess you may be very efficient in cutting and preparing a video nowadays, but it is not enough for me to decide if I like it.
    The thing is, if I spend 15+ € or even £ on a title, I want it to be worth my time.
    So, here we have a cute Early-Access (did you even mention that?) factory adventure game, which appears to be directed maybe to a younger audience.
    Not for me after this review. This means it is probably good enough for me to say no, but would not be good enough for me to say yes - especially not for that price. For 1.50 I would say "doesn't matter if I don't like it, but 15.00? No way!"
    Honestly, I prefer reviews with more substance and if I may say so:
    I would like to kindly recommend you to focus on meaningful reviews and drop those games you have hardly any time to review well enough.

    I am uncertain whether this has pulled it off since I don't expect to play it but I think this was important for comparing the game to its inspiration.

    I think its a mistake reviewing games you havent properly commited to. It makes you seem more interested in pumping out content than actually giving a detailed and honest review. If it continues ill be dropping the channel, your cool Mack and you have a fun presentation but you influence my gaming purchases too much to listen to you if you arent going to commit to the games you review. What if 10 hours in this game hits a grind wall that makes it unfun? What if there is a game breaking bug like in superman 64 where you cant beat the final levels without cheating? Your thumbs up on that title would be bad for your brand.
    No one expects you to review every title that comes out bro, play the games YOU want to play and review them in detail, your fans arent going to leave because you didnt review some indy title that doesnt interest you. But we will bounce if you start giving half assed reviews of games you havent played through.
