Why is Rabi Ribi so underrated?

Why is Rabi Ribi so underrated?

small western audience

Let me guess, is a game with shitty gameplay, shitty characters,shitty story and shitty villain but you like it because there is semi nude little girls

normal people are actually not okay with pedophilia

Creepy pedophilia tends to turn away a lot of people.

How is it so good bros?

It's an indie game and most normalfags will not even touch it. Case in point:

I'm a weeb and even I was turned off by the artstyle. It ended up being one of the best metroidvanias I've played in several years. Aesthetics are important, they are the reason people prefer an inferior game such as Hollow Knight.

It's not underrated, just mediocre. It's worth playing I think, but it's not a big deal at all.

>look for rabi ribi videos on youtube
>get videos about barmitzvas or merchants doing their silly dances

That's why.

>metroidvania
>not Japanese
Non.

Short answer: there are WAY too many platformers holy shit.

Reisen? Hat girl? Timestop guy? Plumber dude? Cup man? Vermin thing? Leaf Miko? Blue robot boy? Blue angel? Bug boy? Meat thing? Cave robot? Miner man? Bird boy? Biscuit cat? Blue spiky animal?

Good news. All of them are good. ALL of them.

Bad news. There are way too many good games and that's why one good game doesn't matter.

Rabi Ribi >>>> Hollow Knight

>He likes anime
What an enormous faggot

hollow knight was boring tedious garbage, don't fool yourself

La Mulana is better anyways

Nothing is better than La Mulana.

I'm a little worried about the sequel though.

Story seems anywhere from disjointed to incomprehensible and a bunch of people blow it off because it's anime

Atleast it had gameplay. Lmao.

Yeah, shit gameplay lmao

Better than no gameplay 2xlmao

But Rabi Ribi has good gameplay 3lmao

Short answer: there are WAY too many FPS holy shit.

Call of Duty? Halo? Quake? Doom? Wolfenstein? Duke Nukem? Half Life? Serious Sam? Blood? Painkiller? Stalker? Counter Strike? Shadow Warrior? System Shock? Tom Clancy? Left 4 Dead?

Good news. All of them are good. ALL of them.

Bad news. There are way too many good games and that's why one good game doesn't matter.

2018!

... probably!

Because people expected true bullethell, not bullethell lite.

Because it's shit?

When I was buying it I was thinking that I was once again being memed by Sup Forums into getting shitty weeb game, but it turned out being one of the better games I played in recent years. Thank you whoever shilled it here. I wouldn't check it out otherwise.

Honestly I think the art style is fine for the audience it's targeting. It's a difficult game even on normal mode so most of the normalfags who don't play it because of the art style wouldn't like it anyway. And it's also clearly inspired by Touhou and is going for the same audience as that, and I don't see why a Touhou fan would be put off by this art style.

>I don't see why a Touhou fan would be put off by this art style.
It's too lewd and lacks silly hats.

>It's a difficult game even on normal mode
It really isn't.

It's difficult for someone who's only ever played western AAA games

Maybe not to someone used to playing games, but a normalfag would get intimidated and give up.

You know where to go m8.
