My god....not only is this a ripoff, it's a ripoff of a TERRIBLE comic.

Oh god, that made me sick.

VGCats was good until they took an arrow to the knee.

I get it.

What the fuck is this.

Seriously, who allowed someone to draw and write this.

 

[Fantastical]

Everyone knows this is the best Skyrim thing ever:

The 2nd to last panel is superfluous because, as has always been the case, Scott WANTS to be storyboarding an animated sequence. He's an anime fan. He really is good with character body language and expressions. But he tends to visualize his comics as storyboards for something that actually moves.

The story of VGCats has always been that Scott would do great if teamed up with a writer. Stuff like Penny Arcade tends to have tight, polished sequential art logic behind it because Tycho is a good writer / scripter. Gabe has someone to bounce ideas off.

I see that. The final panel would be the silence after someone shouts something absurd or bonkers to highlight the stupidity. The technique is used in anime to great effect.

My god....not only is this a ripoff, it's a ripoff of a TERRIBLE comic.

This is quite possibly the worst comic I've ever seen, including VGCats. Good grief.

 

[TheSeks]

When he draws humans, he's actually a somewhat decent artist.

Too bad he took a B^Uckly and copy-pasted them into the panel with no changes.

 

[BY2K]

Just be happy it wasn't a Arrow in the knee joke.

 

[Dennis]

I used to read VGCats but then I took an arrow to the knee.

 

[AlimNassor]

That pink cat is so cute. I used to read VGchatz until a skag ate my leg. Now I just sit on my porch with my shotgun yelling at strangers.

I used to take arrows to the knees, then I ate some cake.

The arrow is a lie.

uhh no. This would be weaker as an animated storyboards, because there are no camera instructions or details to how the character moves.

As a comic strip however it's perfectly fine. There is nothing wrong with it on a technical level.

 

[Myriadis]

I like it that Super Mario and Ezio are hidden in the crowd. There are surely even more.
I personally saw many,many worse Webcomics,e.g "It sucks to be weegee" or this "Girlz & Games". VGCats is...decent.

 

[Emitan]

I will totally get Stephen Fry on you

After seeing naked Stephen Fry last night, no thanks!

 

[Cranzor]

That's seriously the worst comic I've ever seen. Maybe the artist was trying to parody other comics or something, I refuse to believe someone made a comic that bad.

Nope! It's really just that bad.

She saw Godmode an knew she could do worse.

 

[AndyMoogle]

This joke/reference has been done in so many videos on YouTube. Probably hundreds given the popularity of the game. With stuff like reddit populating 4chan-style comics and image macros and people just freely putting shit on YouTube, any sort of position of uniqueness VGcatz had in ripping off old memes has been lost. Basically, this dude is a C-grade internet dweller and if he wants his comic to be anything more than a 5th iteration of a copycat he needs to actually start writing jokes.

EDIT:
Also, his comics lack any sort of personality. Like I don't believe a human created it.

Also, try saying "Fus" outloud with your teeth clenched. lol funneh faces so random

Nothing wrong with having his teeth clenched after saying "Fus". All of his faces are at the end of the words.

My god....not only is this a ripoff, it's a ripoff of a TERRIBLE comic.

This comic really makes me cringe There is so much disconnection with reality, I don't understand how someone actually made that :/

 

[Syph Medwes]

Came in expecting 12-17 panels.

I laughed more at this than the actual comic itself.

 

[Neuromancer]

My god....not only is this a ripoff, it's a ripoff of a TERRIBLE comic.

You're not kidding. It's awful.

I honestly cannot believe this is not a satire

lol didn't expect that.

Pretty much everything in this thread is worse than the comic.

Well this is just splendid. (That theme is so good...)

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Also this comic (about how tired and lazy "Cake" gags were) was made years before the Girlzgamer one.

I've always wanted to make a VGCATS thread...

Sadly it's not too shabby, and he avoided the other Skyrim meme at least.

What? Why? What is wrong with you? Way to ruin the last part of 2011, asshole.

 

[Gravijah]

who wears t-shirts with a publisher/developer logo on 'em anyway

 

[Suairyu]

You know that bit in Family Guy where Asian Reporter Trisha Takinawa dry-humps David Bowie, declaring she will make him fish, then Tom goes "thank you, Trisha, for setting your people back a thousand years"?

The problem with people that spends all their time on the internet and with 4chan memes is that they become severaly and dangerously disconnected with reality. They think the dumb shit they see and talk about online at three in the morning actually translates well in real life but that's just not true. Nobody has made a "cake is a lie" reference in a real life setting outside of an anime convention. Ever.

 

[lethial]

who wears t-shirts with a publisher/developer logo on 'em anyway

The same clowns who wear videogame branded\designed t-shirts.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Us gamers, huh? Us gamers.

Fucking cakes!

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Girlz n Games makes my fucking blood boil make it stop

 

[Slightly Live]

 

[G-Fex]

anybody going to find anything else to refer to besides Skyrim?

 

[UrbanRats]

That second to last panel is totally unnecessary.

Not really, although it's still painfully unfunny.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

 

[Snuggles]

Loved it. As a gamer, I could relate with the situation.

 

[InfiniteNine]

She looks like my ex-girlfriend. D:

 

[Duki]

[G-Fex]

I was about to say is that John Carmack's sister?

 

[Duki]

[G-Fex]
