Love this guy’s videos. They are hilarious. You definitely need to watch the RPG series if you like this one. Other honorable mentions are the Curious George one and the Lanky Kong one
First one I saw was the YouTube algo showing me the Lanky Kong vid a few months back, but yeah, he has a unique, slightly dark sense of humor. The RPG one had me rolling though. An absolute gem in my book. Thanks for sharing this one. I hadn’t seen it
The video is nothing but an unmarked ad. Not worth seeing. No idea why OP shared the video.
The video author is sneaky, though. There is one game in there that isn’t an ad (it’s even the highest in the list), and it’s an ad for GOG, not the games itself.
Seems like you made some LARGE assumptions based on a very small amount of information that you didn’t really pay attention to.
The video is sponsored by Asus, hence the laptop ad break at 4:23.
It sounds like he tried to work out a deal with GOG (which is an excellent company that I don’t mind supporting) where the games he mentioned would go on sale to encourage people to buy them. And then the deal fell through, and only one of these games is on sale.
All games are linked using an affiliate link, which is NOT the same as a paid ad.
Maaaan, if you think that intro is nuts, you gotta play The Third. The Third’s intro makes the Fast & Furious franchise look boring.
I hella wish the first one got ported to PC tho. I really liked the “silent protagonist; except for one-liners after a boss fight” thing they did. I still remember the first one going down the elevator after beating some chick that was basically sexually harassing you and you’re like “Ugh… I hope that didn’t give us herpes.” (or something to that effect; it’s been forever since I played and that line is one reason I wanna play it again). The other reason being that the city was an amalgamation of the cities I live around. They even have a recreation of the Water, Wealth, Contentment and Health sign from Modesto.
“FromSoftware is based AF, Bethesda you could learn something from them” or something like that.
Um, please no. If Elder Scrolls VI is a Souls-like, I won’t play it. But with regard to IP law, yeah, that’s all fine. But Bethesda is part of Microsoft now, and they were bad enough before with Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online and the mod storefronts for Skyrim, Fallout 4, and Starfield… so yeah, probably gonna get a lot worse.
20 years on (yes, 20), that opening theme still gets me hyped up. I was really expecting the Battlestar to jump away from the missile in the last shot.
Check out Boomerang Fu, Wizards of Legend 2, and Lovers In A Dangerous Spacetime. I used to host game nights and those were the most fun. WoL 2 is arguably not as good as the 1st one, but I think it’s more accessible. Most of these games have kid friendly graphics as well.
I’ve been a Battlefield fan for a long time now, but as I’ve got older I’ve begun to hate the ultra fast pacing of most mainstream shooters. This genuinely looks like it would be headache inducing to play.
Agreed, I thought the features of the stream looked quite interesting, love how you can pull downed squad mates out of danger, buy my overwhelming thought was, damn this would be better if it was slower.
I honestly think that payment processors should not be able to dictate what can and can’t be paid for with their service. If it’s legal in the countries that they and their users are in, it should be allowed. I was never able to vote for them, so why should they have any power over how I spend my own money?
Ross Scott is an absolute treasure, and I’m kinda sad that he has never made more than €63k euros in a given year. He deserves more for all the work he has put in.
I’m not European, so if you are, please do what you can to encourage your reps to support this.
The audience has very much expanded since covid. Around that same time is when fighting games (at large) finally got the good netcode, because they finally realized they could no longer get away with the easier, cheaper, bad netcode. You might not know what the word “rollback” means, and probably most players don’t either, but I think everyone intuitively understands that it feels better to play these games online and that they’re getting better matches. This also came along with a few new ways to shed motion inputs, or at least make them optional, in many big releases, and a renewed focus on trying to invent good new single player offerings. Fighting game majors are breaking attendance records every year, and in a world where the e-sports bubble has burst, the fighting game scene is the only one growing organically from grass roots without spending money it doesn’t actually make (Fatal Fury might be the exception here, due to ties to the Saudi family).
