Among Us

I don't play it but I know some of the memes associated with it (sus).

Reminds me of Gravitee Wars.

The Mall at Rockingham Park has an art studio that just opened about a month or two ago. One of the display paintings was an Among Us character with a Spider-Man skin instead of just being a solid color.

It's an interesting concept but it gets boring after a while.

Was fun, but like GTA it got boring pretty fast. I go back and play it when new people try it out or a new map releases but otherwise there's other games to play

I have no idea why it's so popular.

Many of my posts from late last year were posted in the same room as a loud roommate playing Among Us with his friends from high school over Discord.

This sounds like a sappy melodrama my wife would insist I watch with her.

I mean, at it's base, it's basically the same as the party game Mafia. Two players are designated as killers and try to kill off the other players (which eliminates them) without getting caught. Periodically the players vote on who they think the killers are, and whoever they vote for is eliminated from the game, whether they're actually a killer or not. Non-killers win if they vote out both killers, killers win if they kill everyone besides themselves.

Never played it. Not particularly interested in it. I never really got into Mafia and this isn't much different from that.

Interesting, and here I thought it might involve someone dying from a Crock Pot.

I hate that they updated the game where you can't speak freely in the typing chat. By the time you click a complete thought from all of the pretyped phrases, your ass if floating off into outer space.

I know why they did that, but I don't like it.

They probably were getting too many complaints from parents and couldn't be bothered to deal with it or implement some sort of moderation. Pre-typed phrases are terrible except for the most basic communications like "Hello".
