Probably my last video for a while, have to start getting used to a heavier workload in the coming days. Still, I'm NOT abandoning the channel anytime soon - Zábava
i love how ultrakill just show something to us and make we ask "can I just... ?" and immediately said "yes"
???
So when i tell you that you [+ Parry] This man, It's basically the rule instead of the exception
@@femmesammy8768 same thoughts here :D ???
@@sultanbaba1230 He's basically saying whatever you think you can do, you can probably do it in Ultra Kill. For example “what if I use my coin and shoot my rail cannon at it?” And the answer would be yes, you can do that, and it'll do a lot of damage.
As much as i love the earthmover i really wish the brain was harder or atleast had more arenas grear video tho! It covers everything everyone thought about the centhur
True, I wish the brain either had more health to allow players to actually reach the more difficult parts of the fight, or have more mechanics to make it even more interesting. I mean, people would still find ways to Ultraricodeadrailcoin Benjamin into oblivion... ;)
@@coldbrewYT im people
Tbh the brain was kinda too easy even on violent, you can easily kill it without even getting to the idol section by just parrying and sawtraps
The lasers were much faster when the update came out, but got nerfed in the patch
A shame, but understandable given how there’s 2 other harder difficulties that’ll come out
I think it makes sense for brain to be easy for us and V1, if of course the theory of V1 being a counter for Earthmovers is true.
Whoever created the Earthmovers during the war probably didn't think that anything or anyone will be able to get past security into the brain itself.
I mean, this was the "final" war machine after all, how the hell do you want to counter that, right?
The corpse of King Minos was a giant husk, and the leviathan was a giant demon. We just finished off with a giant machine, maybe a giant angel? Or a giant ???
Giant - Corpse of King Minos
Giant Angel - Corpse of Lucifer??
Nah we aint fighting luci, hakita said.
I’m betting we’ll fight an actual Giant at the end of Fraud since Ultrakill is based off of Dante’s Inferno
What if it's the body of god? Since it was said that he disappeared. What if he could have died during his disappearance. or maybe that's for P-3...
@@mistuo4133Hakita said we wouldnt fight God because that'd be lame and besides, didnt God just outright disappear so he could wait for everything to sie off so he could restart
7-4 is also the first level where we canonically hear:
-Cry of pure fear towards V1
-V1 screaming (I am not counting the sound V1 makes when guttertank punches him, that's more like a sound of pain)
When do we hear V1 scream
@@Dan-fn1uw Right after Earthmover explodes
@@GnomeKr wait, the sound effect that plays at the very end of the song? Or am I missing something?
@@canedaoinutil9395 Well, yeah, basically
I do not know if Hakita meant it to be V1's scream of... joy perhaps? however the fact that this sound is really similar to other robotic voices we hear, it's not used anywhere else in this song (unstretched that is) AND that it plays right as we fall down to the exit (and even lasts long enough that it ends exactly the moment we land) suggests that it may be V1 just doing "wee" or something...
@@GnomeKr I never thought that way but this is genuinely beautiful and I'll add it to my headcanons now
Yea 7-4 is that one level i can't stop replaying because of how epic the bossfight is. I don't even know how to describe it as a whole. Its just amazing.
i cant replay it because the part after killing the brain is hell
Ultrakill is no less of a miracle for the low end gamers out there. sure it maybe cheesy in some rooms but the overall experience this game gives to anyone, the cocaine-ish gameplay and the amazing soundtrack with the community thriving and active, its like having a dream game. This is my favourite game
what parts would you consider cheesy?
@@slimeballsake personally, 4-3
i HATE that level with every cell of my body
Games made by gamers truly gives you that "YES" answer.
It just knows what you want so well. it goes like this;
Me: "I wonder if-"
Game: "YES"
1:24 feet jumpscare
3:30 okay when you put it like that it makes V1 WAY more badass lol
I think is normal fear this thing after it is basicly in a rush of killing Hell layers
Plot twist: he becomes a recurring enemy type like the swords machine and ferry man, and is even featured in the cyber grind.
you gained a like just for the "except for P-2, that's just CIA grade torture." line
2:58 sad stone :(
3:30 i never thought of this and it makes me feel so powerful
i played this whole boss fight and i didnt even realize what i was fighting, this video is me realizing
im an oblivious ultrakill player
2:58 HOW DID YOU MESS UP A POINT BLANK CANNONBALL
I never thought of the scream in the beginning, that really changed my outlook on this level
I seriously do not know how many times i have said this, but, I'll say it again, Benjamin alone is the best level, soundtrack, boss fight ever created
Wouldn't say "ever created", but Hakita really cooked with 1000-THR cause it fits perfectly within ULTRAKILL
I like Sisyphus prime much more than Benjamin. The hardest and the best (security system is meh, and the brain/heart is meh too). Great soundtrack too.
@@plantplayer303 why people call Benjamin Benjamin?
@@siz1700 i'm not aware of any reasoning, maybe a reference to big ben (you know, 7-1) or something?

Hey, coldbrew. I know you said this is the last video for a while, but after watching your ultrakill videos and hearing your perspective i would love to see something like a lore explanation video or act 3 speculations or something. I saw this video and automatically assumed it would have multiple thousands of views, and somehow it doesnt.
TLDR: youre HELLA underrated please make more ultrakill content 🙏
pov earth mover: OH GOD ITS A V1
Every robot was built to counter the last, which will explain the screaming that you hear from the earth mover, but it also explains the self-destruction that happens after you destroy the brain. My theory is when the creators of the Earth Mover found out about V1, they made it specifically so the only way for you to kill it is from the inside by destroying its brain, and once you destroy its brain it starts a self-destruction mechanism that locks you inside the earth mover, causing you and whatever inside to blow up with it.
"This is one of the only colossal bosses that I've seen that uses massive size [...] to present itself as a playable setpiece"
Reminds me of the colossi in Shadow of the Colossus
i guess this boss quite.....
*moved the earth*
really makes you wonder how terrified the other earth mover must've been, like imagine your fighting another earthmover and it stops targetting you, only for you to see it explode in a few seconds and only then you'll realize you should've let it shoot down at V1
I like to think about this one comment I saw on the song for 7-4 talking about being a earthmover and watching as the other earthmover you were fighting blow up. ( ᴀʟsᴏ sɪᴅᴇ ғᴜɴ ғᴀᴄᴛ: ᴛʜʀ-1000 ᴇᴀʀᴛʜᴍᴏᴠᴇʀ ᴀᴄᴛᴜᴀʟʟʏ ʜᴀs ᴀ ʟɪᴛᴛʟᴇ ʜᴀᴛ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛᴏᴘ ᴏғ ɪᴛs ʜᴇᴀᴅ)
The only game I can possibly think of using the idea of a collosal boss as a level itself is Grandia II. It's a whole ass location where we walk inside of Valmar (that is it's name).
3:34 bro gave me goosebumps
quick trivia, every machine in the great war was made to counter the last, as V1 was the last machine designed that means... V1 WAS DESIGNED TO KILL THE EARTHMOVERS
Remember: V1 was canonically made to counter the Earthmover, the final machine deployed during the war.
LEBRON CAUGHT BOOSTING WITH A PUMPED SHOTGUN
everybody gangsta till the earthmovers appear as a normall enemy
the fact that this game will release and there will be no more new acts scares me (i wish they give us a map creator)
mods are a thing
and so are custom maps
@@theroboticpotato thats like vegan meat i want official
@@elderdragon1628 still in active development
Violence was my first layer blind
And playing it blind is the best way you can do for 7-4
the book in the alley by the security system broke all of my bones and left me to die i LOVED it
As a level I love it, feels like it's from super mario galaxy
As a boss tho.. nah, doesn't feel like it at all
I absolutely get why it's structured like this in-terms of the story and diversity between the bosses, but it just doesn't feel like one. It feels like a normal level with normal enemies and an obstacle course at the end. I wish there was more to it than just that.
honestly while i really do like the level itself, it's one of my favorites in fact, the actual two boss fights in the level itself were way too simple and underwhelming. minotaur kinda was too, it felt like the 3 boss fights we got in this layer focused too much on having a gimmick (the trams for minotaur, the several parts of the defense system, and the lasers of the brain, that and defense system and brain being small parts of a larger level) so the fights themselves had to be dumbed down as a result, making it so imo really only the 2nd phase minotaur gets to be a fun boss fight on its own.
it's really telling when the highlight of the main boss level for the layer is a regular enemy encounter instead of the actual boss. violence really shows the main problem i personally have with ultrakill: it focuses way too little on the boss fights so very few of the fights themselves actually get to be memorable or fun.
Agreed
The last word in the video being “peace” is so perfectly ironic.
thats the only way it should have ended. (ha ha ha)
i swear ultrakill feels like a horror game sometimes
v1 and earthmover is basically the story of david and goliath
i think the major objetive of v1 is to kill an earthmover, and he got ANOTHER major objective by defeating gabriel 2 times, he wants to kill gabriel as much as gabriel wants to kill him
edit: also he beat a greater version of himself (v2)
the thing i love most about the earthmover is the idea that V1 was _made_ to destroy it, this thing has been stuck there forever, the earth has grown around its feet, and has been locked in combat with the opposing earthmover for who knows how long. when it notices V1, it immediately breaks off from that combat, in an attempt to destroy them before V1 can get to work at its purpose. this massive thing, takes time out of its fight to the death, to try and attack YOU specifically
erm actually the earth didn’t grow around its feet but those are the roots of the trees you grow in 7-3
@@aydust4744 damn that makes sense, idk how I didn’t notice
@@notaclass-d1822 😎I lowkey never noticed it either but hakita said it in the developer commentary stream
3:37 it wasn’t built with V1 in mind my guy
I'd say it’s designed with smaller enemies trying to blow it up in mind, with the defense system and the lasers near the brain, so it most likely can tell V1 is capable of that from watching it tear through violence with ease
@@coldbrewYT it’s designed with destruction in mind. something that large would normally not have to worry about ant-sized nuisances like basic machine soldiers (not to say that V1 is basic, but should the Earthmover really be scared of something that size?). additionally, as V1 is a prototype, it was presumably kept secret, so Earthmover manufacturers wouldn’t even know that V1 existed.
@@coldbrewYT assuming it was one of the Earthmovers in 7-2 and/or the one in 7-3, fair point
I never thought about the sound the Earthmover makes when he sees you being one of terror. I also never noticed he stops fighting the other Earthmover to take you down. The more I play this game the more shitty I feel, I think V1 isn't actually evil because machines can't have morals, emotion and all of the stuff that makes up a conscious mind. However, I have all that shit and I feel terrible lol.
to make you feel worse, id like to remind you that machines do display emotions, like swordsmachines getting enraged, V2 making gestures that are pointless for machines and also getting enraged when you hit him with his arm or fight like a pussy
@@scrubysponge7282 I never thought of the enraged state as a state of actual rage for some reason, but I see that. The gestures as well, the gestures V2 does when he sees V1 shows he has some sort of sportsmanship. Yeah, I already felt like shit killing V2 because he's not even a brutal war robot, he's basically just a civil protector. It's not bad to feel this way though, it's adding to the depth of the game for sure!
1:26 "General Kenobi..."
we got colossal husk, colossal demon and colossal robot....
next: COLOSSAL ANGEL
Maybe the best Colossal boss, but Minos will probably forever be my favorite (haven't fought against sisyphus yet, and p-3 hasn't yet been released)
Are you sure benjamin targets you at the start of the fight? It seems to very clearly throw it's lightning attack into the far distance at the other earthmover. I'm not sure if it's even capable of attacking something so close to it.
the brain room couldve been done better. Such as have the head move making the whole room flip or change maybe even have spikes come out the walls. its probably the best and shortest boss ever.
Technically the Earthmover is the best boss since it’s an entire level, but it’s brain stage (where you actually kill it) is worse than the swordsmachine fight
imagine being so big that u the whole level
Cant wait to see you in a few months with a "K" next to your subscribers counter
appreciate the optimism!
@@coldbrewYT it happened in less than a month
I personally thought "Oh fuck, it screams, I just wanna leave", but I never thought It'd think "Oh fuck, an ant, I need to kill it before it kills me", tbh, I truly like the idea of us going INSIDE the boss, like a bacteria.
*B E N J A M I N*
1:45 quick correction, it isnt bigger than the previous 2, but the previous one. its larger then the leviathan. How ever not minos
EarthMover: 600~ meters
Corpse of king minos: ~10 - 14 km
minos is a whole lot larger then the earthmover
The Earthmover's in-game model is much larger (~20% iirc) than Minos, that was the comparison I was making
Pissyphus and minos are goated ngl
Earthmover is pretty good, I just wish that the brain fight was actually fun
I feel like this level, while incredible on its own, would have been even better if the body of the earthmover shifted just a bit as it dealt and received blows. Just another thing to remind you that you're scaling an active war machine.
Unpopular opinion: Personally I absolutely love the lore of the whole violence layer and especially that of the eathmover. However in terms of ost and to a lesser extent gameplay I found the earthmover a bit underwhelming. I find war without reason to be repetitive (especially the opening alarm section) and tbh in terms of gameplay I much prefer 7-3 with its epic arena battles to 7-4, which is just an easy gauntlet level taking place on a spectacular setpiece. It’s a shame because other people seem to enjoy 7-4 much more than me and I would be grateful if someone could explain to me what they love so much about this level.
I'm just disappointed on how easy it was to beat the brain, you don't even need to dodge the lasers because of the painfully slow projectile being so easy to parry for health
People saying its coming back in P-3:
1000 in japanese is "sen", so his name is sen-tar earthmover
It reminds me of Shadow Of The Colossus
earthmover was the most fun boss in my opinion
6-2 is still the best
0:43 Earthmovers, not earthmover :)
While, I do think that the Earthmover is great and all, saying that he’s better than Minos Prime just, feels wrong.
minos is just some jacked guy
saying that minos is better than Sisyphus feels even more wrong.
While I do think the Earthmover is one of the best bosses in the game, I don't think it's the best (Sisyphus Prime my beloved ❤). It's at least a top 5 boss fight in the game though. From the scope to traveling throughout the massive thing, and ultimately killing it, it does make for a memorable boss that won't be forgotten.
I do however think that the boss is a bit too easy. Not saying the boss has to be Minos Prime levels of hard, but I would have liked it to be a little harder. Maybe that will change with the new brutal difficulty that's coming soon (or UKMD, who knows).
Still a fun ass boss to fight though.
Earthmover on Brutal about to be hell
Problem with earthmover, it's more of a level than a boss to me.
earthmover is the best boss in video game history fight me
its a boss? half the level your just climbing up it
Its funny cause I thought this was the worst boss cause the actual boss portion is like a minute or less long and is way way way too easy
Also where did the two earth movers clearly shown next to it go? Not to mention the fact that the enemy earthmover is so hard to see so far away. I didn't even know it was there until someone told me. I was just confused my earth mover getting blown back. Not to mention the explosion against it barely lines up. Keep that in mind with the fact that theses are the only too scenery to be seen on the ground and the fact that neither earthmovers take any damage from each other, the level just feels like im playing a normal level with a background animation playing on loop. It dosn't feel alive at all.
Honestly the earthmover in my opinion is the worst boss fight. Compared to all the other bosses you barely actually fight the earthmover. And the fact that the security system is a more interesting fight than the actual brain speaks to how it just isn’t as fun as others.
You’d better be kidding with that thumbnail.
I have to disagree with you, in the sense that this is a VERY GOOD boss but Sisyphus remains the best so far imo
a boss with 1 attack is the best boss of ultrakill? my man, if hakita placed reskinned hideous mass in centaur's brain that would be more fun than whatever shit we got. Boss levels (oh wow) are boss levels, why tf earthmover has his defence system only on one part of his body? and the fight against his defence system isn't something extraordinary too, that thing can't fight back. the level is BO-RING. What am i escaping from in escape sequence? timer? Well timer isn't something scary. 7-4 for me is one of the worst bosses in all of ultrakill, you like not the level itself but the concept of it.
not gonna lie, the combat sequence after the brain is probably the hardest for me
Minos prime still my beloved
