Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. I’ll never understand why people enjoy 'intentional bugs,' but Goat Simulator Payday is admittedly committed to its bit. It’s chaotic, it’s stupid, and it’s surprisingly full of things to do. The addition of the 'crew' with different abilities (the dolphin in the wheelchair is particularly inspired) adds a layer of variety that the original game lacked. That said, it’s still Goat Simulator. If you don't find physics glitches funny, you won't like this. It’s a low-brow comedy in game form—fun for a laugh, but the 'joke' wears thin after a few hours.
