I completely agree with you FireyDeath4. Most people, in this case children play games like strobovski and baldi just because they are trendy. I also, dislike enough how mrdrnose doesn't take the game seriously and literally memes on himself by making fun of the onion, and stuff. It ruins the whole game and the image, the atmosphere, for lesser known memes like кто прочитал тот здохнет, it fits pretty well! Because the meme is lesser known and it's not a reference to anything, it's a distorted cat. But when mrdrnose puts jojo references, impact font, nani, and god forbid big chungus i genuinely lose all my hope in the game for like 7 minutes before calming down and forgetting about it. It's not even what people would describe as "cringe", cringe is a strong emotion, here it's just bad, it's not funny at all. Never add temporary fad memes like thanos snapping into your game. It's a horrible decision. Obviously humor should be in a fully functioning game, but this isn't humor this is just bad.

You won't believe how much more could AlphaBetaGamer, MediaGamesGuide make the game popular if they would seriously get into it. About the game being for adult audience, we have to look at facts, not who the game is made for, but for the primary audience for the game who actually play it. By statistics, most players are under 18 years old. It's like yandere simulator, the developer said that the game is not for kids, but it's obviously mostly played by kids because almost no one over 18 other than youtubers are interested in yandere simulator. Obviously kids mostly play it.

Wow, for once I totally agree with you Noli.

Wow, four* people here?** Sweet. Let us join forces, and together, we can make this game rise again.

If you want, you can go ask MrDrNose if he likes the idea (of submitting to the channels), and we'll handle the rest.

Anyway, sometimes they are funny, but you really shouldn't be dumping memes all round in the main areas of what is supposedly a horror game. Recent studies have shown that calm/sane flippancy and informality is the #1 way to neutralise stress in any stressful environment, and since humour is able to do this to even horror and elements of torture/death, i.e. in horror comedies, coupled with the ascended power of spicy dank memes, you will completely wipe out self-respect and seriousness in any horror situation if too many memetic elements are introduced. They should really just be confined to test maps and deliberately humorous situations, and since the characters are there in them, even that's quite a stretch. That being said, if you'd like to make seriously creepy nightmare fuel (like, actually scary as opposed to spoopy) out of memes, go for it, and good luck. Even in the T-POWER test map, there is a lot of blood, but it's still a meme nonetheless. And memes are also pretty dumb, which is kind of what makes them so funny, and that's a pretty big obstacle, so you have a lot of work to do.

Memes are supposed to be a special treat, not something heavily involved in the main part of a serious medium. But in AEWVS, you've just been dishing them all out everywhere and now I think we all have diabeetus lol.

*And make that five.

**That doesn't sound like a lot out of context, but you'd be surprised.

I agree, i think we should submit strobovski to the game channels collectivelly. We should talk about it in the discord further.

I understand that humor in games like these is indisputable, but there are too much memes in my opinion. I don't mean memes as in inside jokes about coil boar, freekadelka, i mean too much real world meme references. This game is it's own universe, and bringing in impact font, jojo references, god forbid big chungus is not only unfunny, it just makes you return to the real life, if you understand what i mean. 
I think if people want some humor, the community can do it perfectly, but the game shouldn't be completely humor oriented, i understand this isn't what the developer strives for, but this is just what is slowly happening with the game. I believe this might be one of the reasons players like phucat think the game should be put to rest. And i think it shouldn't be put to rest, i think it should continue to grow and become better.

That's exactly my point.

We need to contact CoryxKenshin and a lot of youtubers.

I think they have a channel in Discord for that, although I just checked and the things seem to be missing. Probably because of the mass wipeout of channels they're recovering from.

I believe he played it once recently (at least later than you said that) and never did it again...
