Video

you didn't need the 4 minute and 57 second outro. Unnecessary

Modding is the whole point. You can play brutal doom

Can I use controller?

3 минуты этого видео заменили мне многочасовой поиск информации о том, как установить моды на стим версию Дума)) Англоязычный ютуб почти как всегда мне помог, Thank you)

Where is the Wad files?

that sweet surrender bit was hilarious.

Hey just wanted to let you know. A few months ago, I saw a video about the "Sega Blue Skies". Today, I saw a post on IG about Sonic aesthetics and I wanted to reference the video. I found this one in the process. I mention this because you said you wanted to spread awareness of the term at the end of the video. You uploaded this in 2022. The video I initially referenced was uploaded in 2024. Called "Why "Bad Graphics" Make You Feel Good..." by a channel called Dansplaining. That video has 200k views. All this is to say that you were an earlier pioneer of this aesthetic, and you should feel proud of yourself that you were aware of it before it got more recognition. To quote @TheAxelWorld1, "This is something I've always had in the back of my mind but never thought anyone else did lol." Same. Absolutely same. My first introduction to it was Sonic Heroes, which I played when I was 4. Ever since then, I've been chasing the high I got when I first saw the Ocean Palace level.

As regards Sandy and Doom, he's spoken a LOT about it on his CZcams channel, going through a few of his old levels and even doing a playthrough/commentary of Doom Eternal. I recommend watching the videos where he sits with his granddaughter while she plays his Doom 2 levels, as they are of course hilarious and adorable.

Imagine being so broke you can't afford Doom 2, which is all you'll need for custom maps

Helter Skelter's Breakage also leaves you completely invulnerable during it.

Hacx:

Y'know if Konami wanted to make a few extra dollary-doos, they COULD re release all these CV Perfect Selection albums globally through iTunes officially for those who don't know the "high seas" very well (or pay an arm & leg for physical copies floating around ebay/dscogs) IDK.

The most beautiful Sega Blue Sky I've seen in games is in Yakuza 3. The little area with the private beach outside the orphanage

It's been 6 years since Adventures of Square Episode 2 came out, we've gotten no teasers, no screenshots, nothing. It's definitely been abandoned

Oh god he doesn’t know Mr Saturn, everyone, retreat

5:46 So an emo teenager

_Sega blue skies smilin' at me~_ 𝆕 _Just Sega blue skies do I see~_ 𝆕 _Bluebirds singin' a song~_ 𝆕 _Only Sega blue skies from now on~_ 𝆕

Unfortunately pinnacle of combat became peak of combat and it sucked, alot

My personal setup is breakaway on d-pad (to be forgotten), LB for charge shot, square for DT. All the other stuff I enjoy too much on the other buttons and I can hold Devil Breaker fairly well with my thumb while still hitting melee attacks. But Sparda help me if DMC6 adds a charge on Nero's DT...

PSO2 Coast has that Sega Blue Skies DNA, especially with that M1 piano house.

It's crazy how they put an impossible to perfect mechanic on a character who is supposed to be an easy introduction starter I have beaten the bloody palace and I still can't exceed properly I can pull a triple judgement cut in the air but exceed is literally impossible for me I like his character but hate his mechanic and lack of combo's

1:48 that fucking freaked me out because my name is Alex lmao

4:28 I live in Brazil, and it's almost the same. Sunny Blue sky days here are beautiful, and when im inside a car, especially next to a beach road, i always blast Passing Breeze, its such a nice feeling

it says OS: Windows 10 (NT 10.0) Build 19045 Execution could not continue. R_OPENGL: Unable to create an OpenGL render context. Insufficient driver support for context creation what dose it mean ?

Babe come back I miss these videos

Nero is my favourite gaming character. His taunts and his attacks are awesome like Kratos.

*Fun Fact* Duke Nukem 3D nearly has it's own variant in the works 20 years ago, known simply as "Dave 3D", which itself is based off of "Dave Gnukem", the Open Source Port of the original 2D Duke. But because 3DR were being "Nintendo" with their brand, they took it down on the basis of "we don't want people not having to pay for our game to play mods of said game, we need that sponduli for DK Forever". These days, the closest attempt to it is a mod simply known as "Luke Ken 3D". Seems promising, and it's legally distinct enough to get away with it.

Play it in conjunction with, also free, Brutal Doom. 🙂

this is an aesthetic i've very often thought about and have fond memories, but didn't know how to express or describe it. this along with glittery lights at nighttime akin to Casino Night Zone in Sonic 2 and NiGHTS in to Dreams. or games having a purple night sky with grey lighting, set in an Arabian Desert type location

I find it heartening for the future and amusing that you described yourself quasi-apollogetically as a Zoomer Doomer especially in that specific context. I'm like a fucking old man just sitting around waiting to die, but even I was relatively late to the party. Had to work my ass off to afford SNES Doom as a kid and just sit in school fantasizing about what the other sides of the monsters would look like in motion... Then when I finally grew up and built my PC I basically did nothing but play vanilla Doom like 10 hours a day and eventually shut myself in to make heavily scripted mods and shit... Anyway point of the story with no one asked to hear but which I will leave here for my non-existent posterity, there was one instance where I had been playing Doom so much that I was driving my vehicle through a parking lot the exit from which basically involved driving under a giant billboard, and I literally slammed on the brakes right before I crossed the threshold between the giant telephone-pole size columns because my brain had internalized the idea that you can't drive over or under things. For an instant I had internalized the logic of 2.5d an infinite height monsters into the real world. So yeah running across a sea of heads in nuts for the first time did feel a bit... off.

I guess I missed the boat giving you my own half-hearted "akshually," but I distinctly remember reading something from a reliable and convincing source (maybe could have been a Romero tweet or one of those Doom development talks he gives, or maybe just some really hardcore trivia nerding on doomworld like 10 or 15 years ago, or the talk page of a wiki or some such) that .WAD was actually backronym--that is to say the format and its extension were named as such simply as a fitting time for a "collection of lumps," and the marginally clever acronym was thought up after the fact. The most trivial trivia ever, and simply based on the memory of some guy who is now far too depressed and drunk to actually try to look it up...

Added to "watch later". I watched a 3h DMC iceberg video from Brazil and it mostly sucked. Many curiosities everyone knows. "Oh, do you know DMC was supposed to be RE4?" Yes, tell me something new, like the alchemy in DMC 1, Gilver, the demons of Temenigru, Balrog, Kalina Ann, the mirror world, Vergil kept Beowulf, Argosax vs Mundus and many others...

Fun fact,I ported it to the Dreamcast using NXDoom

This was such a fantastic watch! You did a brilliant job here putting this aesthetic into words 😊 Liked and subscribed

Улыбочку хыыы карлики

Bobby Prince in an interview on CZcams said that he told Romero and Carmack that he thought they were going to be sued. Implying that they told him to put the music in it anyway.

Lol the one time it isn't called helm breaker is the only time you use it to break helms

19:22 To add onto this, many fans believe Dante's return to his jovial personality was caused by discovering Nero and who he is. I mean after losing your brother twice, this time him actually dying (let's be real did anyone think he was actually alive after 1) and you've been alone and depressed over his death for 7 years, only to find out you do have 1 family member left in the word. (I also headcanon that if Dante found out about Nero post DMC1 he probably would have kidnapped and raised him himself.)

54:33 wait till you find out about baseball in Japan

1:40 That Happens To Me On SRB2 Final Demo And 2.0 When I Try To Leave The Game Running In The Background And Return To It. Seems Like The Glitch Doesn't Happen On 2.1 Or 2.2 Though.

Maverick Hunter MegaMan X looks like DOOM (2016) before it was a thing.

I still think Japanese stage plays based on video games are extremely bizarre. It sounds very cheesy and something that hyperactive high schoolers would come up with.

Only psychopaths keep Blue Rose on Y.

Cannot wait for your dante video for the others. Great vid!

5:20 you know that does Make sense as to why I can feel with Nero more. Just feel similar To him. Not with the religious cult thing but other zones. Not that social mainly.-Curious Sea Doggo(No I’m not fully a seal on the Internet.)

I know im late to the party but i do love these character analysis in character action games. Its cool to see how story and gameplay meet to make badass characters, and combos. I bet these analysis take a while, and i appreciate the effort.

I wouldn't be outright against a DMC1 remake but I'm afraid if they did it would sand down the elements that make it unique compared to the rest of the series, especially with some aspects of the RE remakes... also afraid they'd use it as an excuse to stop putting DMC1 on future consoles.

Ah, so the Reboot weird ass devil trigger apparently refferencing Bangle of Time You learn somethinh new everyday

The whole question Who is Nero's Mom?

A few tidbits I think worth mentioning: Since charge shot also activates color up, using it will always use up one color up charge. You can also save color up charges by releasing the button while attacking or in any other animation. Gerbera's neutral attack blasts the enemy away, really weird cause I have Overture for that and its the defining difference to the superior GP01. Pasta Breaker's attack works a little differently than Punch Line in how it hits enemies, tending to drill them away instead of smacking them around the same area. Some enemies (especially bosses) can break through Ragtime's standard bubbles. Being hit while charging a Break Age also breaks the arm. The addition of two snatches let's you have access to it even when holding an enemy or charging a break age, negating a major problem with Hold in DMC4. There's also the Dual Snatch in DT. Raaaaaawhiiiiiide boosts Wire Snatch, pulling in some medium sized enemies and dealing damage. Healing from Sweet Surrender or Recovery Provocation doesn't continue when out of combat, no sitting around between each fight for free heals. Recovery Provocation can also only be done if you win his credits minigame, can only be used once per mission, and wears off either when hit, going into DT, or after enough time passes. EX Provocation only gives orbs in combat. Special Provocation puts Nero in a special state while active (also inactivated when hit or DTing). When he first goes into Special Provocation, his damage is reduced, I believe it's about .8 what it normally does, but as he defeats enemies the multiplier goes higher, I believe it's 7 kills for 1.2x but I'm not certain since you can't test it out very well in The Void. Knuckle can actually be done in any animation you can't cancel out of, even the beginning of a jump or start of a taunt or when charging maximum bet, holding streak, or the wind up of Punch Line Break Age. It can also be used sometimes in Buster animations, though sometimes only when also in DT and/or using the Breaker instead of Bringer. Split's changed input in 5 is directional input back. While Nero only has one sword, it has more moves than other weapons, with 4 standard combos, 2 aerial combos, 5 directional input moves in 4 and 6 in 5, and a hold move in 5, not to mention the EX versions of the directional moves. He even uses the back to forward directional input, which iirc no other character uses until 5. Could be wrong about that, I'm not super familiar with DMC2 or 3. Super costume... hoo boy. Special Edition, while fun, doesn't change Nero too much. His wide swinging moves feel like some of the most fun I've had in the series in Legendary Dark Knight. With Dante getting Full Custom it's a little surprising Nero doesn't get something similar. Heck, with Showdown doesn't he get a sword of energy or whatever? Both 4 and 5 teased him using the Yamato or Sparda as a major weapon and then he... doesn't. Summoned swords get more swords when charged, and can be fired when in animations for extra damage, like during busters or charging showdown. Nero's D-pad is severely underdeveloped compared to Dante. At least he uses it... unlike V. Some Busters allow for additional effects like charged shot effects, additional hits, charging EX... dependant on the specific Buster. Some Taunts also allow for Color Up or EX refills. Ah the Void... thank you DmC. I'm fairly certain the timing for Act is more lenient than 4, same with the positioning for Enemy Step. Could be me, but I've heard others share the same sentiment. Nero is basically Lucia redone. Member of a devil hunting order on an island, while not amateurs they're not especially matured either, this is basically the biggest days of their lives and is truly the protagonist on a journey while Dante is just kind of on a job, introduced in an even numbered game, unique looking Devil Triggers... Always liked Nero. While I played... either 1 or 2 on PS2 as a kid, I didn't like them. Wasn't until 4 when my cousin and uncle introduced me to 4 that I got into the series. Then I bought and played the hell out of 1 and eventually bought and played the hell out of 4 and DmC. I didn't get 2 or 3 until years later when I was on the cusp of adulthood. Nero was my intro to DMC, and when Dante gameplay threw me in the deep end in 4 I missed him. Of course going back now, I love the Dant Man just as much, but I feel both 4 and 5 hamper both of them with the pacing. Nero running the front half of his games and Dante running the back half keeps making it feel like they aren't being balanced right, especially if 4 or 5 was someone's entry point. You ever notice Nero on the non-NG+ difficulties never fights Blitzes, or those fire dog enemies, or Furies? Meanwhile you take control of Dante and you have a new character you have to learn how to fight 2/3 of the roster with even before they start adding new enemies. Hey now, Nero took down one of his bosses in 4, Bael (and of course Sanctus and the Savior)! Not his fault there's a near identical pallette swap Dante fights later.
