想看个天津人玩. 相声看得比较少, 拿捏不好捧哏的度, 有点记正确选项那意思了. 以及重复可玩性不是很高, 毕竟就那些文本. 打算之后抽空再刷个全成就. 总的而言算个有趣的小品游戏, 可以体验一下. (我竟然已经玩了91分钟了吗... 是不是啥时候忘退出了...

I don't think I get this game. I don't think that's necessarily bad - I'm lacking a lot of cultural context here, and there's a lot of googling and research I'm having to to understand what my role here in the game is, what I should be doing, et cetera, because it hasn't really tutorialised me well. It tried a bit, but I think if you lack the cultural knowledge of how Xiangsheng works and what the role of the penggen is - which I lack - it's an uphill battle. I think even more so because in these responses my natural inclination is the sardonic-toned ones, and those often get negatives. But sometimes they don't? Sometimes I have to play a yes-man, sometimes I have to play something else that I don't think goes well through the translation layer. But they're trying to make that accessible to an english audience, and I think that deserves some praise, so I don't really want to give it a no-recommend despite not understanding it. The game is actively trying to teach you what it's about as you play, that's part of the back and forth, I just kind of wish there was a "no failure state" mode so I didn't have to keep restarting the banter and figure things out without the stop-start. The negatives would be that it's an text-to-speech voice (it's in english, which is a plus, but in comedy, the personability of said person is quite important I feel? You can turn it off though if you don't like it, which is also a plus.) and without context, you're struggling. There's the natural limit of pre-set jokes and responses, and it doesn't feel hugely fluid for a stand-up comedy simulator, which is the closest cultural comparison I can summon from playing it. It's quite solid with accessibility options - screen reader, turn off the hurry mode, et cetera. The translation is piece by piece readable and makes sense, I think any translation confusion comes from things not translating well between languages/losing nuance? I can't say if it's a good Xiangsheng Simulator - I just don't understand, but it's given me reason to go look at subtitled Xiangsheng, and that's been a neat rabbithole. Maybe I'll understand by the time I come back to it!

常听郭德纲的朋友们这还不手拿把掐，不过啊，为什么没有个暂停键和存档，我一直捧哏都捧累了QAQ

挺简单，但也挺有意思的一游戏，差不多玩俩小时就可以通关了。段子很多，有意思，也不低俗。

介玩意儿好呀。可以当一个赛博捧哏，就是感觉这个捧哏就是于谦。不太能怼逗哏的。不知道是我技术不行还是后续会更新这一块内容，还有啥时候能更新一下天津话语音呀。等这个出了一定会特别哏儿
