Mixtape appears to have been caught in the crossfire and become the latest whipping boy for the anti-woke crowd, which is a damn shame as I found it to be an incredible experience. Makes it hard to talk positive about it on other platforms without some moron calling me buzzwords

    WTF is Mixtape in this context? In my mind, it is (many years ago) tracks recorded from LPs, 45 singles or even CDs onto cassette…

      It’s a game, heavily inspired by the mixtapes of our shared youth. Some people say it’s not a game, because it doesn’t meet their definition of “game.” Some call it a “walking simulator,” which has a pejorative connotation. I haven’t played it yet, but I plan to, critics and purists be damned.

        Nothing wrong with a good walking sim IMHO. Some of the best games I’ve played are walking sims (like S.O.M.A.)

          Came here to day the same thing. They’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but Stanley Parable is a great example of a walking simulator that’s a great narrative game. I’d argue FireWatch is a pretty good game too.

      a game that came out last week, u play as a character whose dream it is to become a music supervisor, she makes many mixtapes and the game takes you through her last one with her friends before she leaves town. so if youre a music fan youll most likely love it
