[h1] Killed Fun [/h1]
I was a little hesistant to make this review since I thought, "Eh, no one's going to get this game, everything that needs to be said has been said about this". But then someone I knew bought this game, and then I completely changed my mind.
Kill Fun Yeah!
It was around 2012 when I first heard those three words used in that conjunction. 2012, when Fortnite was Minecraft and the world ended. I was a wee lad, ever optimistic, and fell in love with a YouTube channel named "Thunderhumor" for their animation and Swedish humor. They made videos that have quotes practically made every five seconds. It was so absurd and uplifting. Any update they made, I'd TAKE IT and LOVE IT.
Then Walter, one of the animators of the channel, helped make a game. Thunderhumor posted a humorous trailer for the game, advertising it while also flaunting their animation style about.
As such, being a kid, the first thing I thought was, "Alright! Sounds cool!"
Second thing I thought was, "How am I going to buy this?" Because I was a kid without a credit card, y'know.
Fast forward to June 1st 2014. Three years after setting up my account, I look at the Steam Store, then I suddenly remember Kill Fun Yeah, and how fun it looked, and how amazing it would be to play after all this time, after all these years, finally, a game made with the help of one of my favorite YouTubers! That would never be a mistake!
Turns out...
The game was good!
Y'know.
When there were people playing.
People weren't playing Kill Fun Yeah anymore. Surprise to me. How could this happen? What DID happen? I didn't have the answers, and I doubt I ever will, but one thing was for certain. This old game was practically abandoned. Three or four people at a time were playing it at most, and the people playing were playing across the entire world practically. I was in denial for quite a long time before I finally put the game down and said, "Okay, no. I'm not doing this."
It's far too late for me to get a refund for this game. As much as I'd love to support Thunderhumor, their projects, and play fun games, this is just not the way to do it. If there's ANYONE out there who still wants to play this game, just play something else. I've criticized games like Stick Fight: The Game for having a choppy online experience, but this game practically has NO online experience. Or...any experience, since there's really only the dead online to try out or the local game, but there's still no one I know who ever touched this game even.
Imagine Splatoon, Team Fortress 2, Counter-Strike, etc., any multiplayer game you can think of, except completely deserted. No online. No community. Nothing. That's what Kill Fun Yeah is. Don't buy this game, please. Most reviewers use their personal experience to justify whether or not a purchase is worth your time, but in this case, I implore you from my lack of an experience AT ALL. Don't buy this game. Not as a joke to gift to your friends, not to have fun, not to support Thunderhumor. Third option, go to their YouTube channel instead or something to donate, I don't know.
Just do not buy this game.
