RPGM - Goblin Layer [v0.53] [Parodos]

at first i was laike : "ehh another rpgm pooring game with grind "
then boom u can skip chapters get to the quest and scenes ,
the fuckin humour in this game is hilarious , goblin out of 10
hope to see more of ur games in the future

Good easy game, has a nice little skip and cheat feature if you want to get straight to the spice. A must play for anyone looking for groblin action.
Has a few funny jokes and lines thrown in, but rip Lizardbro.

This is really what h-games should be. Non-creepy, fun, funny. As direct as you want, only as much challenge as you want, well-written. All the gamer inside references are fun -- know your audience -- and the animations and graphics are over-the-top in the best way possible (i.e., cartoon-exaggerated, not C-grade-porn-star-exaggerated). I hope the dev keeps it simple, no crazy feature bloat or side plots: this game has a formula but it's a good one.

Damn fun game, though there is still a decent amount of jank. Can't count the number of times I've walked over a boundary line and had to play invisible wall to find my way back. Not much of an issue though, and everything else more than makes up for it. The humor is top notch, and the characters, while still being twisted by the nature of the game they are in, are very noticeably the same cast of the original story. Loving the game though, having great laughs and getting my fellow degens in the friend group to give it a go-b.

Stellar humor. Not just in a little exhale of the nose way either; I laughed aloud more than once. It's a wonderful blend of character humor and a touch of the absurd. If you're a fan of funny games, this is the one.

The writing is lighthearted. Nothing dark to interrupt it, but not superficial either; there's definitely a feeling of camaraderie between the characters.

The little character portraits are charming and contribute a lot to conveying emotion.

The combat wasn't tedious, which was a refreshing surprise; there's a way to instantly end fights, which means that you're only engaging with combat by choice, when desired.

A great experience. Quite surprising that there aren't more ratings.

This is the funniest game i have ever played, my man dev is really good writer, like for real, i dont want to spoil you, but you should really consider playing this game, is pure gold, good wifus and if you are into goblings(not my case but this ones are cute lol) this is your freaking game. definily a worthy game.

Note: I don't believe a complex opinion can be properly represented by a number but I do understand some people are impatient so I don't use the star system normally, my ratings are as follows. 1 don't recommend, 3 unsure please read review, 5 recommend.

Goblin layer is a spoof on goblin slayer the anime/manga best known for the first episode which promptly displays horrible rape for, basically no reason, the proceeds to be a tame and normal anime except that now there are just rape victims throughout the show that kinda clash with the tone.

In a lot of respects I'd say Goblin Layer improves on the story and characters a lot, the titular Goblin Layer's character is about as deep as a raindrop hitting hot metal but at least he actually has a personality, unlike the show. It actually makes some sense that the chicks in this would wanna fuck GL since there are no other men and they can see him fuckin. The girls are also there but they don't matter as much because the one thing kept form the source material is the MC only wants to deal with goblins and nothing else, he has 1 drive and nothing else matters or will alter that in any way, Unfortunately this means you pretty much only fuck goblins, and hey credit to the devs the goblins are hot but they get stale after a while.

It's an RPGM game and you are encouraged to play it like a real JRPG for some reason thankfully you can cheat otherwise I wouldn't have even bothered, I would say subpar at best.

To be honest that's kinda it, there isn't much to this game, it's also not complete at time of writing so eh? I didn't complete the game as is because I got sick of the JRPG shit and realized other games don't have that so I played all of those instead. If the art catches your fancy, you don't mind some mediocre humor nor the RPGM crap then give it a whirl, otherwise go play all the other games.

Version 0.425:
Nice character models and animations.
Extra enjoyment if you read the books / manga and/or watched the anime
Funny writing, decent combat.
Needs more quests and content or course, but it already has a few hours of content.

Really looking forward to play the next versions

Since I've recently found a good RPGM game, I've decided to try a couple more with high ratings, this one being the latest.

This is by far, one of the silliest game around, and entertaining as fuck.

The renders are decent, as is the writing.
The story is actually well thought out for something so silly.

The world map is pretty nice, which is usually one of the massive issues I've got with RPGM games, the damn maps being impossible to see/navigate.

The combat is standard, but, for those not into RPGM combats, it's got a cheat skill, terminating the combat instantly, which is by far the best thing in this game.

The game's kinda short, but is certainly begging for more content, that is one to follow for sure.

This game is an absolute S-Tier shitpost. If you've read Baalbuddy or Oglaf comics then you know the kind of adult humor to expect. This game knows exactly what it wants to be and that's based as fuck. It takes real brains to make a game that feels this stupid.

[Reviewed in 0.42] This game is rife with dumb humor. There is not one line of serious dialogue to be seen here. And I love it for it.

You are Goblin Layer. The only thing Goblin Layer wants to do is fuck goblin girls. No desire to fuck other women, no desire to eat, sleep, drink, or even wear a gods damned shirt. Goblin girl fucking. That's it.

Considering my love of goblin girls follows in the foot steps of Goblin Layer (it's not humanly possible to equal it or even approach it) the joke never gets old for me. There's plenty of other sexy scenes with non-goblin girls with humor thrown on top for how much Goblin Layer just doesn't care. So you still get some variety to play with. Characters have sufficient variation in personality to make them enjoyable to interact with as well.

The models and animation appear original, or at least unique, which really helps the game stand out from the crowd, and all the girls (but especially the goblin girls) are super cute.

The game has an adequate RPG system. I certainly prefer the offer here of Final Fantasy style heroes on the right, baddies on the left setup, over the RPG Maker standard portraits at the bottom. And all the enemy sprites are original, animated, and delightful to look at. The game isn't going to stand on the RPG battles alone, but that's obviously not the draw here. The RPG combat just does well enough to give mildly interesting gameplay to those that like turn-based RPG battles, and blends well with the story.

This is definitely a game I will watch for further development.

Amazing game worth playing. It's genuinly fun, it's well-written, it plays well. I'm not into goblin stuff and all, but this game has a plenty of juicy ladies. Also, this game getting regular updates and supposed to be a finished story - a marvel in our dark times.

It might just be personal taste, but all of the interactions, the humor and really everything are so diminished by not having names for characters. Makes it feel pointless and empty. Was super excited and I love the premise but this decision ruins it

I simply love the humor, art and devotion that is inside this game, a really great job done by the creators, looking forward to future updates.
P.S.
Please dont drop this project really want to see it being finished hahaha

Fucking hilarious. The 3D models are nice and cartoonish, represent very well the characters they are parodying. The combat is kinda annoying, but is is already full of cheats, so who cares. Goblin Layer is memetic potential incarnated.

Updated Review for v0.43.8

A year later, a lot of my thoughts remain the same. This a a delightfully fresh RPGM game rife with humor (that actually lands) and filled with plenty of goblin girls to sate your goblin laying needs, plus some non-goblin girls too if you're into that you freak.

With a less serious and often goofy tone in general, Goblin Layer is just a fun ride of an RPG. If you're like myself and have not seen/read anything about Goblin Slayer (the thing this game is based off), you might be worried if this is just some parody game to avoid. I'm happy to say that isn't the case for me. A lot of humor, even the clear references, still very much land for me.

The dev has clearly put a lot of effort into the character models and scenes making them both stand out as unique and hot in general. Now I am one of those aforementioned freaks who wanted to see scenes with non-goblin girls as well. Originally, I was a bit concerned those wouldn't happen. Once again I'm happy to say that turned out not to be the case. Goblin Layer is slowly awakening to the blasphemous idea of non-goblin girls and I'm here for it.

An incredibly fun and unique RPGM game at the end of the day. A pretty easy recommend if you're into them.

This game has really good models and animations girls are thick af
It's not grindy at all
The developer puts out updates really frequently
The dialogue is very self aware and can be funny at times
fun game I generally like 2d games more, but this game is up there

Review to game v0.36.3.
The game has the potential to become a masterpiece under porn games.
It has a funny story with a lot of girls, awesome 3D models, high quality animations with these models and even proper sounds (a lot of games lack of sound in their animations).
I personally like RPGM games, if they are done well and have proper scene animations, and this game has it.

Good Points
+ Only good part of this game is having great sense of humor i gues? For example first time i saw Status screen was totaly priceless and hilarious, espacily the part ''Goblin Pussy Addict'' LMAO. And of course scenes are pretty funny aswell like while you are fucking female goblin in front of simp goblins they tell things like: ''I subscribbed your Goblyfans for YEARS! and then... this?!?!'' etc which is funny ASF LOL. Or cheese addict Lizardbro LMAO. And thats it... Other then we have zero good point...

Bad Points
- Well... Its made by RPGM... I do believe its good enough for being bad point. Less save file amount, annoying gameplay mechanics, annoying/unuseable HUD/IU, less details for options etc...
- We have only 18 save file... Adding more save file was to hard for you? Nearly all games have 999+ save ''page'' in these days, im gonna say again ''page'' not file... So this means nearly all games have 6x999+ save file while this game have only 18... Cool...
- Game starts with windowed mod and we dont have fullscreen mod option in menu, i find out we can make fullscreen with F4 via chance, because there is literaly zero info about how you can make game fullscreen...
- WASD is not useable, if you want walk you gotta use mouse click or movement buttons of keyboard.
- Not every place in game is walktable and clickable/moveable places via mouse is not clear enough, you gonna missclick a lot of place because of that and its kind of annoying.
- There is no rollback option, which is quite annoying because of alt button skipping dialogue: when you make Alt+Tab its gonna skip dialogues and you will lose some of them... Cool...
- Fights are kind of annoying... You gotta click and click and click again to different locations again and again... Seriously why cant i attack with clicking enemy instead of clicking ''attack'' button every god damn time?! Its just pure annoying and nonsense... Classic RPGM...
- Game quality looks terrible.. I know screenshots looks kind of good but dont get fooled, ingame graphics looks pretty bad, which is quite disappointment. And not just animations or renders, literaly every visual part of game have terrible quality. I played game via 21.5 inc 1080p monitor, so i cant even imagine how bad it will look with higher resolutions etc... I cant even believe someone can make game with that much bad visual quality in 2022...
- This is adult game, so sex scenes are pretty important but because of terrible quality and unwell maked animations they look poor. Sex scene animations needs a lot of work to...
- We have literaly zero story content...

For The End
Its have potencial but current quality of game in every aspect except sense of humor is literaly terrible... DEV gotta fix all bad points i write for reaching that potencial. Words cant even describe how disappointed i am... After seeing this game about Goblin Slayer and have all those 5 star rates i was thinking its gonna be great or at least would be average, but reality often disappointed... Dont get fooled by sided reviews, this is not good game, not even average or even poor... I can see potencial but for reaching that potencial DEV need work a lot on this game, i hope he will take my review serious and fix those things, at least thats what i wish...

The dev seems like a fun guy, I really enjoyed the whole writing in this game. I literally cracked up in laughter while playing it.

The story is pretty much a parody of Goblin Slayer which is available as novel/manga/anime. If you know the original story, it'll be more fun.

Gampelay is fun as well. One thing I didn't quite like was the obvious cheat skill which you can access so easy as it was your own magic skill. I just hope it's an early access kind of thing for now. Aside from that, the battles can be challenging and at some point you have to use your abilities wisely. I really liked that and hope he'll improve it in future updates.

Another thing which I hope will be fixed are the old animations. It seems dev is experimenting a lot, which is nice, and he changed quite a bit in this regard. I like the new features he added in, but I hope he updates the old ones as well.

Speaking of animations, they are not bad. I like the overall character design, and it fits with the original story. Not only that, but I got the goblin slayer vibe from watching and playing it further. So overall It's a pretty unique style, which is quite charming.

The only sad part was the amount of variations. You basically repeat the intro sex scenes as repeatable later on, which is not a bad idea considering the amount of work, but I hope he adds at least some more sex positions / angles for each in future updates.

Anyway, I'll give my support to this dude and see how it goes. Oh, one thing I forgot to mention, the female goblins in this game look hot!.
