The only viral games that are very viral right now are Fortnite, Baldi's Basics and maybe FNAF.
Minecraft lost its shine in popularity and Undertale is like never talked about in YouTube or anywhere anymore.

Minecraft and Doki Doki Literature Club are the only viral games I like.
Minecraft never appeal to me, so I prefer DQ Builders instead. My brother likes this game though, he's a fan of viral games.... And Markiplier....

Doku Doku Literature Club? Cute artstyle and I like it, but I'm not a fan of visual novel style like games so.... Yeah...
And thanks to YouTube I have already seen all the spoilers of this game... "sigh".
I never liked Agario. It was especially annoyed it when people in the school played it to avoid class.
Thank goodness the school banned Agario.
Well, to be fair, school bans almost anything that's popular, remember they also ban Fortnite.
I enjoy viral games such as Pandemic and Plague Inc.
Question, there's a game called Surgeon Simulator on Switch, was that a viral game?

No FNAF is not vital anymore.
And Undertale, I... Don't really consider it a viral game but more of a cult following game, kind of like how Shenmue is.

Actually, you got a point. Undertale is not really a viral game.
It was very popular in YouTube at one point though. I remembered watching my older sister play it and beat both Pacifist and Genocide.

Does Undertale count as a viral game? If not, I think the only one that I really got into was Minecraft.

I'm not really sure at this point lol. To some extent it is but since it is a really really good game and doesn't just make it's status via Youtube.... You can consider it a viral game but then again, it isn't at least to me.

Minecraft also a bit of in this category but... It did became popular and viral mostly because everybody is playing it.

I also consider viral games are the games where many Youtubers play the game just simply to get views and fame.

All that being said, I also agreed with Youtuber called Reviewtechusa, playing those viral games simply for views and fame is a no go. Because those games will lose its popularity pretty soon, what matters the most is the content. Sure we all know new viral games will continue to be introduced so... we'll see.

It be pretty funny if corocoro actually leaked the newcomer when we were worried about famitsu doing it.

Doesn't Corocoro often leak stuff? Especially when it comes to Pokémon and some popular Nintendo games?

I don't ever recall Famitsu ever leak something big.

Considering how much we've been waiting for the Direct since the delay, I won't care about being spoiled from whatever Famitsu or CoroCoro shows.

Nintendo had their chance.

Playing games for the views and money is not wrong in my opinion.

Undertale is pretty viral, but it doesn't same the same genre as Minecraft or Fortnite.

I mean, RPGs are pretty niche compared to survival or FPS games

We made it pretty far. We are still being beaten by two billion.

The only way to win is by unleashing ZA WARUDO at the final hours to freeze the multiplier long enough to capitalize on it during the last hour.

Oh yeah that was a Kickstarter game, wasn't it...

Completely forgot about it.

It was successful enough for re-releases over the years, even though the scene seems kinda dead.

Corocoro only really leaks Pokémon stuff. Famitsu covers news after it comes out but with the delay it would be the first time for them to leak stuff.

Doki Doki Literature Club is the only viral game I really got into. But it's less a case of just playing the game over and over, since DDLC is really a "play it once and you're done" kind of game. DDLC is more just a sub-culture at this point where the fandom has sort of taken off with it and is making all of their own merch, game mods, and fan art and music inspired by the original game. It's why the game is popular at conventions when it comes to art prints and the like. It's even inspired people to take up poetry (I've been considering doing this myself, since I used to like writing poems for English class).

Most people are beyond done with talking about the game itself, it's more just filling your feeds and what not with DDLC content made by the fandom at this point.

I think this is part of the reason why the DDLC fandom doesn't really have any toxicity. Most people who love the game love everything about it since it's just a game about these four (or five, counting MC) characters. While in something like Fortnite or Minecraft, players are interacting with each other which breeds toxicity, and Fortnite encourages a really competitive mindset that often leads into toxicity.

It also helps that DDLC deals with difficult subject matter and people have been brought together by that.

r/DDLC is my favourite subreddit primarily because it's so laid back and everyone is nice to each other. And it's super active so tons of fan art and cosplay and stuff gets posted.

DDLC was really cool. I remember playing it and beating it. It was so random and bizarre I liked it.
I love Minecraft as well. That game gets way more hate than it deserves.
Baldi's Basics I played for a week and then I deleted it. It was just so repetitive.
I never played Fortnite or FNAF.

DDLC makes me nauseous. Like, no seriously, it makes my stomach hurt to look at it.
I'm not joking.

Holy **** the toys for Starlink are expensive.
xD Doesn't surprise me considering they are from Ubi.


; u ; And I am disappointed that they haven't released a statue of a character I like, even if it was announced and published in the UK pages of the Ubisoft Store. I even asked them if they were even going to release it in the US, but that doesn't seem the case, which is BS. I don't care about the recent AC: Odyssey crap, I want stuff about AC: Rogue.

I really do not get pity rates that much.

Is it the more percentage when you do not get five star heroes?

Is not wrong but this means those Youtubers will either have their channel starting to slow down, and again quality also matters. If just simply doing let8plays and have no more works on it, then yeah people will start to ignore your videos once the game became not viral.
I believe Skullgirls is the biggest indie fighting game, though that's not saying much...
Yeah, while Skullgirls was popular, if I remember correctly it didn't really sell all that well and it was often being underrated.

Hope it gets more attention once again when Skullgirls on Nintendo Switch is out.
