Why is this game so highly rated?

[Dewit]

Seriously curious. Since 90% of steam users don't write legit reviews and are usually really unreliable, I've come here for some answers. The game looks like a typical fps on acid, nothing too spectacular. Maybe you guys can give me some insight.

Oh, look, another guy who's got Hotline Miami listed as his favorite game, throwing out an insult that could easily, word for word; be aimed at that game as well.

With missing stuff that never gets patched.
The community for other games usually frowns on very simple and basic stuff missing when the dev has also stopped updating, but not this one, no no.

Here the community absolutely would not have such blasphemy because it's so memey and quirky. Haw haw.
It's tough because I actually really loved minmaxing and breaking this game in half, but when a store page dares me to get S-ranks but then doesn't actually make it possible to S-rank it, I feel more like I've been pranked.

I went from hardcore playing this to casually playing this, it feels like such a letdown. But at least I get free Jester points from these people so it's not all bad. Silver linings and all that.

Fine, Hotline Miami isn't my fav, now say something that fits a dialogue instead of sounding like it's being shouted off the side of a football field at a kids' little league practice.

I am joking, of course. I'm not interested. Do please have a pleasant day nevertheless.

Ooh, a swing and a miss; I actually love Hotline Miami.

I am equally uninterested in your opinion of my opinion, good bye?

The game is not a treasure at all and the dev is a piece of garbage whos parents didn't love him. if you don't believe me just try to go down some of the alternate routes in archon grid to see just how much of a talentless hack the dev is.

Right, and that's how it's supposed to look, on purpose; it's a big part of what the game is trying to do.

The world is designed to look as ugly as the people who inhabit it.

Strange way to do that, since from what I remember, the guy that made this game had no experience in how to do graphics at all from the beginning. It is migraine inducing.

Get over it, the game becomes amazing

pretty much everything you said about the game is right for the most part.
i love cruelty squad, but even i must admit the gameplay/visual style is an...acquired taste.
once you get past that theres quite an enjoyable formula.

you essentially have the ability to equip your character with a variety of different gadgets and weapons, its slightly similar to deus ex, but far less story driven.

the way you enjoy cruelty squad is pretty much the same way you enjoy something like postal 2, you accept that its kind of janky and not polished at all, but the enjoyment is in the sense of exploration and chaos of the game. but honestly, yea, as much as i like this game i cannot blame you if you dont like it.

You dudes are freaking out over people calling your game "okay" or "a game", get a hold of yourselves, it's an okay game with a over-the-top 2deep4u storyline. It's not terrible. It's also not the greatest narrative ever. It's just a game among other games.
