The Humor & Writing Is Awful
Reminds me of Ghostbusters 2016. Most of the dialogue for this game feels unscripted, like someone turned on a mic and said to the voice actors "say something funny and we will work it into the game somehow"

This game is the saddest attempts of comedy I have ever seen. Last time I witnessed something this pathetic comedy wise was Pauly Shore's ''performance'' in Bio-Dome. I honestly want to know who finds this crap funny??!!?

The only good thing going for this game is they brought in Redlettermedia to rift on movie. Those guys can only turn so much chicken ♥♥♥♥ into chicken salad, sorry fellas you couldn't save this turd.

Correct, this is Justin Roiland's style of comedy. He likes ad-libbing and improv a lot.

Eh, the two aren't comparable. Bio-Dome was an actual attempt write scripted comedy.

Honestly people like you really need to just learn that comedy is subjective, and just because you don't like it doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. Roiland is successful for a reason. His humor lands with a lot of people so clearly he's doing something right. You're allowed to not like it but boy am I sick of these threads where people feel the need to rag on something especially when it's on the forum for the thing they're hating on. It doesn't make you cool, or smart, it's just sad.

Your comparison is Ghostbusters 2016, srsly? So I couldn't get through the first 10 minutes of that, but I'm having a blast with this game. So much for your theory. The art of satire apparently goes beyond some ppl.

Go play some more zombie games. By the looks of it, that's all you know.

Gonna be real with you bud calling someone out for liking zombie games (Especially Resident Evil 2) isn't the own you think it is.

"I don't understand the humor, therefore it isn't funny!" - The universe's dumbest collection of cells that makes up OP's '''brain''' matter.

Game is straight up cringe.

No doubt most people who enjoy this game will also have an active funko pop collection.

The humor is fine. It's probably more than fine because one could probably take any number of lines from game and insert it here as a reply - and it would be funny.

As the game gets more exposure, I'm looking forward to more people whining about it.

The game is on xbox gamepass btw.

This is a game that requires a loaded bong to truly appreciate.

It's riff, not rift you idiot.

I like it and think its pretty funny. I can certainly see why others wouldn't and that's fine.

If you don't enjoy the humour then the game wouldn't be a fun experience. The rest of it is merely passable.
