story
9 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story of "Blobert" is highly praised for its engaging narrative and well-developed characters, particularly the relationship between the protagonist and Fabby the fairy, which adds depth to the gameplay. Players appreciate the emotional investment and the freedom to make choices that influence the story, although some feel that the game could benefit from more substantial story-driven missions instead of numerous side tasks. Overall, the well-written plot and RPG elements contribute to a compelling experience that keeps players invested.
“The characters and plot threads of Blobert are by far its greatest highlights. It's a story-driven game with good reason; the game is incredibly well written, and the characters feel believable and worth an emotional investment. The different sprites, goals, and relationships Blobert can have with Fabby are really engaging, and the player has free reign to decide who they align with, who they spend time supporting throughout the platforming, who they trust, and who they oppose.”
“At the end of the day, what you get with Blobert is a really good platforming game with a lot of RPG elements mixed in and a very well-written story backing it up. It’s a game that makes sure to give you your money’s worth with a metric ton of content to work with. I put a total of 12 minutes into the game for my first playthrough; the only other game that’s managed to get that much time out of me in a single run so far is Skyrim, and that was with all of the optional DLCs included. So I’d say Blobert is definitely worth picking up despite its flaws.”
“Moral of the story: you never know what life holds in store for you, and if I would have given up when all the odds were stacked against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“Finishing the main quest will take around 15 minutes or so; any extra playtime will be spent doing the various side jobs (finding all the sheep) the game offers you. While 15 minutes is far from a short amount of time to spend on a game, it did leave me wanting more. This ties in directly with my next issue.”
“The game would’ve been much better off having a lot less of these sprites and more of the longer story-based side jobs and main missions in exchange.”
“At the end of the day, what you get with Blobert is a really good platforming game with a lot of RPG elements mixed in and a very well-written story backing it up. However, I put a total of 12 minutes into the game for my first playthrough, which is quite short and left me wanting more.”
