I'm really not sure what you was expecting? Even the developer description says it isn't worth the money :D

I'm just saying my experience. It was a lot of fun at first but then once i'd done everything in the first hour or so it quickly got dull.

People are hailing it as the second coming...it really isn't, it's just a unique idea with some genuine lol moments.
 
it isn't the greatest game but it has opened some ideas and eyes as to a different way of bringing a game out .

thats what i personally like about it. no one want to push anything in gaming apart from unknown or kick starters.

when devs at big places see numbers games like this sell and the buzz behind it it can change that.

This is what i'm hoping...however I think in the immediate future we'll just get a deluge of copycats and random BS that has no decent gameplay at it's core.
 
The steam right up on this is amazing:

About the Game
Goat Simulator is the latest in goat simulation technology, bringing next-gen goat simulation to YOU. You no longer have to fantasize about being a goat, your dreams have finally come true! WASD to write history.

Gameplay-wise, Goat Simulator is all about causing as much destruction as you possibly can as a goat. It has been compared to an old-school skating game, except instead of being a skater, you're a goat, and instead of doing tricks, you wreck stuff. Destroy things with style, such as doing a backflip while headbutting a bucket through a window, and you'll earn even more points! Or you could just give Steam Workshop a spin and create your own goats, levels, missions, and more! When it comes to goats, not even the sky is the limit, as you can probably just bug through it and crash the game.

Disclaimer: Goat Simulator is a completely stupid game and, to be honest, you should probably spend your money on something else, such as a hula hoop, a pile of bricks, or maybe pool your money together with your friends and buy a real goat.
Key Features

◾ You can be a goat

◾ Get points for wrecking stuff - brag to your friends that you're the alpha goat

◾ Steam Workshop support - make your own goats, levels, missions, game modes, and more!

◾ MILLIONS OF BUGS! We're only eliminating the crash-bugs, everything else is hilarious and we're keeping it

◾ In-game physics that spazz out all the time

◾ Seriously look at that goat's neck

◾ You can be a goat

It's not the gameplay that's the issue - there's not a lot of that here either. It's (for want of a better term) the soul of the game which will be missing from the copycats and cash-ins.

Goat sim has been an event, rather than a game. The gaming community having a big laugh together. Hard to replicate.
 
Yeah, I'm getting that 'feel' too.

Goat Simulator is the antithesis of PC gaming at the moment - most of the big titles and big names are long over-used rehashes of the same run-and-gun FPS like the COD and BF series, new releases every 12 months or so and £40 a time, hardly ever on sale etc.

And they lack soul. They lack passion. They lack, for want of a better word, "entertainment". You've done it all before, you've shot the bad guys, killed the terrorists, saved the world, defused the bomb, yadda yadda yadda...

Goat simulator is something totally different, stupid to the point of ridiculousness and just makes you laugh, every time your goat does yet another random, suicidal, buggy thing.

Which makes it awesome. :cool:
 
Tried out some workshop content last night and had a blast, give it a month and we will see some really special things!
 
Anyone got in the shipping container hanging from the crane? looks like a robot of some sort in there!

Its a comicly fun game without much content, if they get MP and a bigger arena it will be great. your a goat on a rampage, what's not to like! :D

There's a robot, and there is also one of those small gold collectable things in there.

To get in: Get jetpack, those vent things that send you flying up in the air, there's one of those which sends you to on top of the container. Jump/walk carefully to the open side, jump backwards off the container, and fire up the jetpack.

If it's timed right you should land inside the container.
 
How did this game make it on steam just seams like a mess,what was valve even thinking,just seems like there adding anything and everything now days without even checking it.

The game is not even worthy having the word simulator in it.

Now hold on a minute... are you a goat? :p

I imagine if I was a goat I'd be doing pretty much the same thing.

So I'm going to allow it.
