serious question.

[Toobs]

Uriel's Chasm has been regarded by many as one of the worst games on Steam... worse than Bad Rats...worse than the secret of the magic crystals... quite an accomplishment there...

what in the world would possess you to create a part 2?

I open with a joke, because I have all these emoticons, so yeah.

and ; prepare for from an (")(") ()(I'm actually what's on ... so I'm actually )

In all sincerity, I think I might be in RailSlave's target demographic . I can really appreciate their vision / attempt and am intrigued at the genre the saga is spear-heading: "abstract philosophical religious reflection that subverts to the point of alienation ( / )." Of all of the games that I know of that try to put you in a place of awkwardness / un-comfortability (mind, I don't know many), RailSlave's are the most... adequate erm cohesive(?) That is, if you can get past the gauche-ness of it all (the gameplay) and be able to reflect on the actual content (as I think the game is a vehicle, rather than the substance), there might actually be something provocative of a profound personal revelation therein

From those words (you could be forgiven for thinking I was smelling my own farts while typing them ()), it's not hard to see why these games rarely crack "Mixed" user reviews. To be sure, supporting Trading Cards and putting the games on sale for dirt cheap attracts the masses who won't hesitate to dogpile, consciously or not (which is to say they say "Oh, what an assault. 5 minutes is too much to ask from me, how dare you?! *minimizes window to write a ♥♥♥♥ review ((")of a ♥♥♥♥ game("))* and (“)profits(“).").

The irony: Two views on success: Units moved ; Actual fans (i.e. people reached, who were receptive of the thing) . Depending on RailSlave's idea of success, they might want to reconsider adding Steam amenity support, to ensure only those interested in the content would purchase the game (). Then again, need money to continue producing the product in the hope that some among the throngs will actually dig it ().

Further irony: Th(os)e gamers aren't wrong to insist "Um, how about just improving the games? " I already used the word "subversive" once and stated my opinion of what's the focus (WTF-ery more-so than the gamePLAY)()... With the inundation of ♥♥♥♥ satire everywhere, no more needs be said except "It's not hard to see the sincerity in RailSlave's games, whether you can appreciate them for it or not [which, you know, is fair enough -- intent < result]."

What keeps me from being able to get into the games (besides the fact that they truly are an assault and alienating, despite my interest ) is just the gnawing thought that the earnest stemming from RailSlave's work... might be... less in realizing their opus... and... just rolling with "it" (being the reception of the games)... and crafting... a sort of... erm... hipster m-masturbatory aid...

Again, I think I might be in the target demographic. That thought, though, makes me want to reconsider my(-)self, as I don't think I'm a hipster (aye, I'm not enough of a person to receive such labels) and am opposed to the movement as a whole (<-- hipster talk)... but, again, am genuinely intrigued at the concepts embodied in RailSlave Games. More or less.

maybe I'm safe in here…?…

It depends what you look at, the critics got it. I'm from the old world where critical acceptance meant a lot, the majority of UC fans are artists, that is truly amazing to me. I'm humbled.

As I've said before, Uc got me the attension of killscreen and a number of other more art/game movements, got me interviews and an amazing die hard fanbase, paving the way for Selfie (starring a few) and this.

This game is more Selfie 2, the Hebrews characters are the real title for the game. UC2 was a sort of last minute thing. though all my game worlds are connected.

It's a unique challenge, making the sequel to what was stylised as "the game that should have been buired in the desert".

There are some powerful statements in UC, which I will always be 100% more about than hardcore gaming. This game has a bit of both, It's more of a game.

It's funny really, for UC to have "worked" (particuly the intro FMV, it needs to be where it is in people minds.

This game is the ultimate RSG game, it has something for fans of UC, selfie and the NPPD stuff.

It would never have happened with out UC, I'm all about butterfly effects.

100% @ vehicle, it's frustrating at times. I hope the sense of urgency comes through, because once I start to trip out on an idea, I wont let anything get in the way ...which doesnt always work.

Shovelware,Bundleware (lol) thats a challenge to me, to actually take that "market" and try to make potencially life changing stuff within those restrictions(as if it were a hipper retro pallete restriction) .UC did some powerful things to people.

You are 100% my audience I feel, not really catering for mass acceptance. My greatest hope is you meet some of the other cool people around my stuff, always check the earliest reviews (nppd, UC,selfie) some amazing , clever, clever, people.

They inspire me.

@RailSlave...i wasnt aware a fanbase really existed... thats cool then... if theres a group that wants it, then by all means it should be made... my question wasnt to try to down you or anything of the sort... but being how i thought the first was nothing more than a game people added to milk trading cards from, it seemed pointless to pursue the IP any further...


@Tynon_1221... whatever dude... im not reading all that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and translating your emoticons... go fall down some steps and land on a decorative living room cactus.

Yeah, they made "Selfie: sisters of the amniotic lens" possible. I might not make cards for this, for that reason, not sure yet. I like my emoticons

[Rail/ slave]

I really want to talk about what I think makes this game so special, but it would spoil it.

It's all about the rom hacker, back in the real world.

I really hope to be able to legitimately get into your games RailSlave, as I know, once I do (if am able), it will be wholeheartedly.
As for OP. Well. ♥♥♥♥ you?
(Don't make cards RailSlave; Tobey the Camel Frog doesn't deserve the pennies) (?)

I'd make them cheaper if i could, but they will all be very cheap on sales, at this price.

I'd recommend selfie and this tbh.

I've gotten a lot more refined with stuff, going to remake NPPD.. and UC1 is, a rough ride, that I wont be remaking.

Some of the early more mind bending reviews are a lot of fun to read :P

Tynon_1221....

I have all RailSlave games except UC2 (IDK how to type its actual name) and will try to buy that at full price, as I got all the others at the massive discounts. Selfie is damn interesting (esoteric, of course), Snowflake a bit too mind-bending (and eye-bleeding) and I don't remember playing the others. Because. Well
Just don't replace any of your games WITH the remakes (as in removing from store)(kind of sad have to ask that, with the industry as it is); for all the criticism and claims of them "assaulting" players, (I think) there's no denying that they're art.
What do you mean by "refined"? Able to make the games more, uh, game-y? Er whuh?

OP: I've no issue, you're the one asking me to injure myself because I wrote too much for you to care to read, despite starting the discussion. Don't even with fight, too funny.

Just like that. But with cacti-covered ♥♥♥♥-kickers.

[Keyrala]

Just make uriel 3 and complete the triforce!!
