Man. Hellblade’s progress delete had me on edge the entire time.. until I went back for lorestones. I love that game!
👍🏼
You can't seriously believe that the word progress will delete the entire save? Just why would you think like that? If you are familiar with Final fantasy games or other Japanese games, that line is like your progress is not saved and will load your last checkpoint. Thats about it., don't think too much.
@@GXMODS it says that if the rot reaches her head, then her journey will end completely, but it's a fakeout. yes, the journey does end when the rot reaches her head. BUT THIS ONLY HAPPENS AT THE END OF THE GAME.
@@GXMODS I mean.....Rouge like games are an entire genre that will make you start over after you die. It's not that much of a stretch to believe.
Hellblade really got me. I was stressing and struggled with bird boss. Thought it was over and breathed a big sigh of relief after the rot reached her heart and I just started back before the boss. It was 3/4 through the game.
Happened to me vs Hela… God my hands were destroyed since the rot was reaching my heart and I thought it was over
👍🏼
Hellblade is also part schizophrenia simulator, with the voices and visual hallucinations, but the "rot" thing simulated paranoia itself. And it was brilliant. Edit: I should say it emulates psychosis rather than schizophrenia. It would be hard to emulate schizophrenia's negative symptoms.
Made me very fucking uncomfortable... really looking forward to hellblade 2
@@Sadion666really hope Hellblade2 ends up on ps5. As it's supposed to be Xbox exclusive this time
@@akadvcyoubeezy6748it won’t. Might wanna get a series s!
@@akadvcyoubeezy6748 oof, i hope so too.
I think competition between companies is good to a certain degree, but not this way
@@Sadion666exclusivity has been a thing forever. MS took a page from sony's book. I think it will be on pc if you have one. Also I'm sure you will be able to stream it off their services to your phone so that's a cheap way to play it and cancel right away.
Id say you were spot on with the Dark Souls analysis. Everyone is terrified of the main bad guy who is hopeless and shrivelled while greater more powerful appendages of the system uphold it. Its true to a lot of real world stuff.
Yes, from a story perspective, the fact that the demons literally eat your soul away was very powerful. The fake King was a very powerful boss fight, but the ending fit the game thematically. You don't defeat the old one in a great battle. You asked its mother to put it to sleep. The Old King who sold himself for power is nothing. It is a twist on the Fuast story. Not only does selling your soul not work, bit your demon is closer to a mindless infant than a conniving devil
Demon's Souls not Dark Souls
he wasn't
@@necromax13 elaborate?
Falcon is like the elder brother whom you go to when in need of good game recommendations 😎
🤝🦅
VERY well said!
he even talks like a big brother!
🤝
We love the videos ❤
For the gamers the info and the storys for games is NUTS
Thnx for the hard work ❤
Keep up the good work the real gamer
@@gameranxTVIt seems like you guys deployed some kind of AI that reply with emojis based on the comment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You did a really really really good job hyping up the fact that there are other acts to Inscryption that are so different without spoiling it at all, big props!
Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, Kiryu can literally break the turn based system, it's such a cool move and it's badass when he does it, man i'm so excited for Like A Dragon 8
Ah, Hellblade.
Love that game.
It was finaly a game from developers who not only understand that gameplay mechanics are a part of the narrative, but also had the currage to act upon that understanding.
Would never have happend with a big publisher.
True!!
I loved Hellblade so much. They did a fantastic job depicting psychosis to the audience.
Fun fact, if you didn't watch the movies they had that you could pick from the menu, they sourced experts in psychosis, and people with it too, to create the experience. I love when devs create something as true to real life as they can.
@@Ayyaii24 yeah as someone with PTSD from Afghanistan and Iraq on multiple deployments, I also have Anxiety, Depression and recently after my daughter was diagnosed with Autism and ADHD I went and checked to see if my diagnosis was the same it turns out she didn't get those issues from her Mother lol just a bunch of other issues after my Ex Wife left me.
Well at least Hellblade 2 is happening with a big publisher
@@reanukeevesau Don't dismiss AuDHD. RL trauma often causes traits to hide. I found out I was at 35 after being diagnosed by multiple other possible reasons that seemed valid at the time but the core was still I was AuDHD which made the trauma effects much worse cuz I grew up without the support and care I needed. Look into Monotropism though, might sound better and still explain a lot.
THANK YOU, for putting a big obvious spoiler screen before a new game/dlc. Please ALWAYS DO THAT! I genuinely appreciated it being big and obvious and giving me a time stamp to to skip to so I can avoid spoilers until I finish a new DLC I haven’t had the time to finish yet.
Praise be to Falcon.
Well I fast forwarded the demon souls one only to have it spoiled in the next entry. I’m a little pissed. Ngl 😒
1000%! Currently playing through CP:PL, so that was nice to be warned and able to skip ahead.
@@finalfantasy84 You had 15 years
In farcry 4's case it actually feels like the good ending considering how evil the other two characters are.
They make it like Whoever side u pick it's bad decision.
its in farcry5 too.. you dont take in Jacob and it ends
Thank you so much Falcon. Including that spoiler warnering and the time skip stamp before actually stating it is surprisingly something a lot of listicles miss and I cant appreciate it enough (even if I still watched it because it was only Cyberpunk)
👍🏼
it's not a regular thing.... they haven't fucking done this for a new game in LITERALLY YEARS..... it's fuckin heathen behavior >.
@@gameranxTV bro do it on more than 1 god damn video in a year before you try to take the W for that
I totally LOVED Far Cry 4's secret ending. I kept saying, "I don't want to play this anymore.". I got this ending before properly playing the game, so now I don't want to play the game at all. Pagan Min's been trying to keep order in the area(evident by how he didn't want his soldier killing the innocent civilians on the bus. His anger with the Golden Path is justified. Their leader, Ajay's father, killed his daughter, and yet he's willing to accept Ajay despite being the blood of that ruthless man. He even gives over control over the territory to Ajay for him to take control and maintain peace.)
Yes, this is the Templar way, but I'm not complaining. Freedom can lead to chaos without proper authority.
Yeah. Humans do sometimes stupid stuff.
Far Cry always has you wondering if you are really the good guy.
@gwoody4003 Farcry 3 did a wonderful job of confirming that you are not.
You go from panicking kid freaking out about _accidentally_ killing a hostile to gleefully planning a future murder.
@@joshc5309 they all do pretty well. You are working for terrorists in FC4. Pagan Min is ruthless, but just trying to bring peace and order to his country. He is actually kind to you.
You prevent the Seeds from saving everyone from nuclear holocaust in FC5. You refuse to listen, murder 1000s and wreck the bunkers. Joseph ends up being right the whole time.
New Dawn is the only one without a twist that makes you question yourself.
@@joshc5309and there's that choose citra ending as well ....
Interestingly enough, a certain survey showed that most player playing for first time would select citra's ending 😂
ICO comes to mind. The whole game is a dreaded escort-mission. But it's done so gracefully that it gets a pass.
Don’t assume everyone know what your acronyms mean.
@@ericpalahniuk6013 what acronym? ICO is the name of the game.
@@ericpalahniuk6013and you call yourself a gamer...pathetic
@@ericpalahniuk6013 It's the name of the game. It's a cult classic at this point, it's hard to imagine any real gamers that don't have at least a passing knowledge of it. It's the prequel sequel to Shadow of the Colossus.
uhahuahuahuauhahau
What about Metal Gear Solid on PS1 and the Psyco Mantis fight? That's the first one I thought of. Reading your saves, using a second controller. A little tense at first.
Everyone talks about that one…but the whole game is a series of the game screwing with you. Having to read the codec code off the back of the cd case. Busting your ass to find the mine detector…only to realize you can just crawl over them and pick them up. That stupid heat sensitive/cold sensitive key card.
came here to say this
“If a game tells you to jump with A, but it’s actually jump with Y, the tutorial is meaningless.”
*Stares in Portal 2*
Stares at...BOTW.
Honestly, the whole controller layout debacle combined with the random prompt placements broke my brain so often. You jump with Y, but it's not actually Y, it's X, which is in 2 DIFFERENT locations on the two other controllers that have an X.
Play literally any other game at the same time as a Switch game and you'll just randomly go into the menu or heal when trying to talk to people etc.
@@dowfreak7 I think Nintendo’s controller layout is a whole different yet entirely valid debate.
As a former Xbox player, nothing has confused me more than getting a Switch.
The nintendo layout is more than a decade older than the xbox layout. Xbox switched the buttons, causing unnecessary confusion
@@ahouyearno The only time that layout was used was one controller and then they jumped around with wacky controllers before going back to the layout for their handhelds.
And the og xbox came out before those handhelds.
Plus it's not even about "who came first", it's just shit for consumers. PS is at least thematically somewhat distinct. Nintendo/xbox is just a terrible mix.
@@dowfreak7 it is absolutely "who came first". Xbox deviated from an established standard without adding something new.
Yes, the ps controller is distinct (albeit terrible in it's own ways. Cross to continue, O to cancel is just weird). Same for the several experiments by nintendo. Those were also distinct. Xbox changed the layout without adding something interesting or new, creating confusion.
I have a 360 myself. Great controller but the buttons are in the wrong place. I wish they had followed the standard.
THANK YOU for the spoiler warning for CP:PL! I actually wish all such channels did like outsidexbox does and "beware spoilers for the following games" on such vids. I'm sure we've all missed a game that we want to go back to but it's 2 years old now
Yup! Or you know, that the video chapters had the actual game names instead of number so we knew which to skip when there's no warning like the other videos. I literally have over a HUNDRED unplayed games and I continue to buy more so many are now old but I still know nothing about them and will be new to me whenever I finally play them. Like Talos Principle and Brothers: A tale of Two Sons that I played this year and adored.
I haven't played the new God of War or Horizon Forbidden West cuz they're not on PC yet and avoid looking at anything that mentions them like a plague since I love the previous ones.
yeah it's not a regular thing for stupid gameranx, they've not done that in literally at least a fucking year, if not more, and have spoiled MULTIPLE BRAND NEW games recently that culminated in me spamming the fk out of the video with vulgarities over it, curious if there is any correlation.
Then you should've played instead of lagging simple solution
@@MaRaMa-ARTZGod of war kratos lives and his son goes off on his to find the giants with the little black girl
@@zeeningsucks to suck crybaby
Falc's joke when introducing Pizza Tower made HIM genuinely laugh, and that made ME genuinely laugh. both made me laugh, but his own amusement was kind of the beautiful icing on the cake.
Proud of you 👏
Something you forgot about Desert Bus: If it stalls out because it hits the side of the road... You have to get towed back, and it tows you back *in real time as well*.
What i love especially about the far cry 4 ending is that it implies you take pagan mins site and fight alongside him against the rebels. If you havent played the game you might think thats bad but if you know how bad and rotten the resistance is it kinda feels like a wish fullfilled.
I've always considered the secret the ending the best ending by far. I forget names but both rebels you can side with are awful. Kyrat either becomes a theocratic dictatorship, or a violent drug empire with child soldiers
Frog Factions sounds more wild than Frog Fractions.
One I remember, it was common for games to have the appearance of a large battles, mostly war games, but in reality they'd have you run down trenches or at most a closed off field, so looked larger, but was in reality corridors and halls. Then there was the one Call of Juarez game, has near identical set up, running through trenches, from point A to B then trading fire with enemies, then out of nowhere a canon explodes the trench and it's basically the game going "go wild". Just like that you're over the top -running through large open fields, jumping in and out of the trenches and I don't know if that's the first time a map has really been open and not an illusion of scope.
Nice Spoiler Warning! No sarcasm! Full Stop!! Thank you!!!!
I didnt figure out the Far Cry 4 one until MONTHS after playing. Man that game is such a nostalgia trip for me.
That ending is perfect though such a great game.
👌
I got this ending by accident. I got a call from my dad during the tail end of that cutscene and didn't want to miss anything in the story so I sat there while I was talking to him on the phone. I didn't think to pause or anything since nothing was happening. When he came back and and the new cutscene triggered I was like "Wait...what?"
@@LegendaryDorkKnight that would've been such a great way to discover it. On your own by accident.
*core memory unlocked*
it's majorly flawed despite better gameplay, all cutscene were unbearable when your allies are on screen, only Pagan was the tolerable one. Far Cry 3 had tolerable characters with a better story and 5 have skippable cutscenes.

As a doctor...hellblade is actually a way to understand how a paychiatric patient actually think....depression and anxiety can be real and not being treated can usually lead to bad consequence😢...thanx for the spoiler alert for phantom liberty ❤
I couldnt even get thru the game, the sounds freaked me out.
I know someone who got a psycosis late in life, its scary I could see the paranoia and it didnt matter what we said it just made her think we were in on it too.
Its horrifying and the game certanily got it right, or atleast the first part, nerv wrecking is a good explaination for the game.
For the fc4 scenario, even knowing the ending doesn't change much because you'd restart it just to experience the journey to reach it the proper way. The journey itself makes the game.
I didn't I just refunded it lmfao. I was like nah I'm good.
The journey is the friends we made along the way
The tower ending of Phantom was so brutally real it was so clever. Brings you all the way from a night city legend - to another one of the sheep. Very very clever game development 👏🏻
yeah, absolute genius storytelling to tell the player "oh yeah, by the way nothing you did worked out, you dont die in 6 months, but everybody hates or ignores you now, even your love interest and you are basically a shadow of yourself now, physically impaired and in the world of CP2077 practically useless"
After everything V did, it feels really REALLY strange the government wouldn't spend a few resources to figure out and call V's close friends at least once near the beginning and to "Yeah. V is fine. I can't tell you much but their getting the help they need.." Maybe only the companion quests you 100% finished and maxed out.
Yeah lovers might move on. Things have changed. But it's REALLY WEIRD that everyone was left out of the loop for very social playthroughs. It's a bit too all or nothing. Everything else though and becoming a normal person? Yeah that's fine. Hell, if they did go with my thought with the maxed out companions having some idea of whats going on it could be used to contrast what a good time everyone was having being badasses while you're stuck being normal.
@@AgentSapphire if you got anything save "you wont die from the relic anymore", but you lost all social relations, they either moved on or are pissed because you were so stupid to not tell them anything ... and you lost all personal "power" you accumulated. You can never use cyberware again, you are physically crippled and have nearly no contact or clout.
One could say it would have been better to be dead, than this.
you needed Kratos dying in the Ragnarock fight. Like even the loading screen popped up and everything
Hellblade was an interesting experience as someone who suffers with extremely mild issues like that the game actually was pretty smooth.
👍🏼
I have over 500 hours in TotK and I haven't even finished it yet. To be fair, I will leave it paused for hours while I watch videos or something and then start playing again so a lot of that time is just idle time but still. 500 hours. I love these games and I never want them to end.
Shocked that Pathologic wasn't on this list. Trying to approach that game like any other video game is just impossible
Absolutely love Inscryption and all of its little surprises. And another great list by the best bird of prey ❤
How did you not mention Stanley Parable in this one? It's basically the Anti-game to every game ever
Inscription was the game that got me into card games. A must play for sure.
Agreed, Inscryption is a brilliant game! Must-play.
One-shot, In Stars and Time, and the Lisa series break their games in similar yet different ways. It's fascinating and aggravating, especially Lisa
I haven't played many games lately, but one that stands out to me is The Plan. It doesn't tell you much, it is sudden, and it tells a story without ever saying a word. Yes, it's more a visual experience but it's still a game.
Hellblade is one of my all time favorites. What an experience. Just the voices telling you not to go a certain path made it so cool to play.
Gameranx binge and drink every time Falcon says “to be frank.”
That cyberpunk PL ending was actually heartbreaking. Man I was actually shook. Real feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and abandonment.
Another day, another wholesome gameranx video.
Fantastic video. Found this one extremely interesting!!
Always good when gameranx uploads
🤝
Wow, I really thought Falcon would mention the fact that in Desert Bus, the bus doesn't just break down when going off road. When it does, it actually requires the whole thing to be towed back to the start. But the game must just restart from the beginning at that point, right? Oh no, no no no! Your desert bus broke down 6 hours into your run? Enjoy the 6 hour tow back to Tuscon to begin the trip again. The game is literal torture!
God bless you, Falcon; you just crack me up. It is "Frog FRactions", not "Frog Factions". It isn't "like some type of math game", it is literally a math game - specifically centered around fractions! LOL
You make those mistakes pretty often, but they are charming and hilarious.
You should have included Antichamber on this list. It routinely breaks standard video game rules without telling you, and leaves you very vague hints to help you figure out that you need to question everything you've learned about how video games work in order to beat the it.
Cyberpunks one was crazy, especially considering I sided with songbird at first, then replayed it and sided with Reed, wait I started this comment before it finished so falcon bro you didn't even mention the whole cerberus sequence? I ain't even gonna spoil it for anyone who hasn't played it yet because it surprised me massively, all I can say is I highly recommend active camo and high reflexes.
Void Stranger is a game I know of that really plays with you and how it manipulates common conceptions about games.
Also, pretty much anything by Yoko Taro fit the Bill as well.
ive never been o thankful for youtube chanells that create actual orignal content.
In FC4 it makes more sense to just sit for 15 minutes till Pagan returns. That ending is much better than siding with Amita or Sabal. They both turn out to be bigger psychos than Pagan.
oh, when Undertale crashed my only thought was "WTF?? NOW YOU CRASH" and it took me some time to boot it up again and understand that it was not a bug.
Hell Blade is a proper schizophrenia simulation. I'd say it's dangerous for people susceptible to that kind of thing, or suffering from it to even attempt to play it. It was unbearable for me.
Agree 100%. I really didn't like it because of that
Wonder what other games are... anti-accessibility, I'd call it?
I mean... I''m an aspiring games journalist, right? I believe my... bias, gonna come out and say it, is accessibility. I will rate games higher if they come with features for the differently abled to be able to play them easily. Winning QTEs automatically, allowing us to HOLD rather than HAMMER, maybe being able to color certain items in a scene differently... Other stuff... Check out Spider-Man/Miles Morales, Far Cry 6, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and the Dead Space Remake for more examples of awesome stuff. All that would be VERY praiseworthy for me.
Conversely, I would very probably rate games much lower if they did not have these vital accessibility features, no matter how high the production value/graphics. Games should be for EVERYONE.
The LOWEST OF THE LOW would be games that actually go out of their way to be inaccessible to players who have certain issues. Like Hellblade. Yes, I started out playing this and liking it a bit, but did start noticing problems like with the "limited deaths" lie inducing paranoia, and the very creative stereo panning freaking us the heck out and yes, probably making the game unplayable for real schizophrenic people...
Okay... I didn't mean to rant, I'm sorry... FALCON, WONDERFUL VIDEO as always. I love it, I love Gameranx and hope you keep up the wonderful work!
that is a very interesting perspective. from watching all the making of videos of the game (the ones leading up to release and the full one within the game) they spoke about how they designed it in tandem with consultation from people who suffer from psychosis (not schizophrenia) and professionals as well. They designed it to be as close as to what these people describe the experience to be but I don't remember any discussion about how taxing or how vulnerable it would be for those same people to play the game.
@@EazyCheeze I think it's wonderful that Hellblade is ment for healthy people to make them understand psychosis. Why would people with psychosis play it anyway? they experience it everyday.
as a person with schizoaffective disorder, i LOVE hellblade. i have to play it in a different way than other people would in order to minimize triggers and paranoia but i deeply love the story and gameplay. i think its really important for games like it to exist because it helps show the experiences psychotic individuals have to go through. its an educational experience without feeling like one and its so refreshing to see something like it in the medium. typically psychotic symptoms are treated EXTREMELY negatively and dangerous in games and other media so seeing the hero of the story - especially a WOMAN - struggling with these issues but still progressing and winning in her own way is AMAZING. a lot of people with psychotic symptoms have played it and have pretty much said the same things we just have to be careful :)
Interesting collection of software you've got on your desktop at 18:30. Assuming that's your desktop. Battle Realms Complete is a particularly interesting one to note.
I know it's a game but driving a forklift like that with a crate brought me back to the real world lol
18:31
Gotcha...
I'm keeping a screenshot of this to show you it in the next decades
That starting warming in hellblade made me complete the game a bit too cautiously, i completed FC5 right in front of my friend once within few minutes and he was just surprised to see the alternate ending
There's a couple alternate endings, the last one being my favorite
(The one that ends with everyone in the car)
Far Cry 4 Will always be my favorite. They wrote Pagan Min so well that people wanted to side with him...
Which the developer knew and allowed us to pursue.
That is one of my favourite games. The scenery is so beautiful I just liked being in that world
it's not my favorite because that's the one ending I want as an actual game, to fight the rebels.
@@someblackguy7371 wait you want to work for the oppressor? You actually could, get a job as a cop.
@@marka9292 did you and I played the same game? Last time I checked, Pagan doesn't support Child Marriages or a Cartel state. At least in Far Cry 2 and 3 you get to choose the factions before killing them all.
18:57 You think you can jumpscare me but the ads came up, take that! 😆
I am SO glad I found this channel!!
YES Desert Bus!!! That shit was hilarious, they way the bus had a slight pull to the right was a perfect touch.
Thank you so much for discussing the masterful Cyberpunk 2077 thing! (trying not to spoil it) I loved it so much and you described it perfectly even though I still think it's much deeper with more layers even.
I REALLY appreciated the spoiler warning for Phantom Liberty. I was just about to start another playthrough of Cyberpunk.
Thanks, Falcon.
The fact that thor reviving kratos during his boss fight wasn't included really shows his research.
One of the original endings for Cyberpunk has you up on a space station where you are cured as well and then finally release and allowed to go home but that one ends with you listening to messages from all your friends and not responding to them.
Inscription blew my mind and was such a treat but I will say I act 1 was so cool to me I wish it had more content or a full game in that style. I woulda been happy if the game ended right after act 1
Inscription definitely broke the rules and messed with you
👍🏼
Literally everyone knows about the Farcry 4 short ending by now
Damn no mention of The Clash? 'should I stay or should I go' is the track that plays during that Far Cry ending. It's worth getting trolled by the game just to hear it.
Awesome list. Made me think of the mundane tasks in gothic 2. And I missed the stanley parable and such. But so glad to see desert bus 😂
Shout out to that guy who left that ”impressive” greeting to us at that Valhalla map footage at around 2:10 minutes 😂
Love these videos
Batman Arkham asylum when the scarecrow shatters the fourth wall. How people don’t consider that one of the freakier moments in gaming, I’ll never understand. That left me feeling vulnerable for a while thinking I can’t trust anything I see anymore.
This how i feel every day. The world is simply an illusionary existence.
20:00 As much as i’d like to play a game called Frog Factions, it’s called Frog Fractions.
No metal gear solid psycho mantis fight or Meryl's codec channel? That stuff absolutely blew my mind back in the day. Never has another game broke the 4th wall like that before or since.
metal gear solids psycho mantis boss fight should of been #1. Switching out your playstation controller to port number 2 broke the rules of how a boss should be approached.
Its like falcon and jake are about to make us all happy with a duo 10 list review !
I finished Cyberpunk by going through don't fear the reaper, into new dawn fades. It was such an emotional ending.
Phantom liberty is strange. It takes all the buildup in the game, alll the strength you gained, all the adventure, and flushes it down the drain. I can't imagine legend V becoming a regular choom once again. It actually makes me feel weird inside.
Agree
Idk if this counts as " broke the rules but it's definitely a shout out. Metal gear solid when fighting psycho mantis for the first time and getting your ass kicked enough times before it tells you to switch controller ports. That was definitely a first for me and was pretty cool.
2nd bonus is enternal darkness sanity requiem for the game cube. I could tell you how many times I watched my brother play it and if you sanity meter went all haywire it woukd hallucinate the screen. One situation I'll say is when you enter a room without a save cause it won't let you and you die in the locked room which can literally make you nuts in reality. Sanity requiem was a masterpiece and still is to this day
Five Nights at Freddy's 1 has a similar crash thing to Pizza Tower with the 1987 Easter Egg. Where you set the animatronic AI in Night 7 to 1-9-8-7 and then on PC the game will have Golden Freddy Jumpscare you and crash your game before the night even starts. Console and Mobile ports take you to the main menu.
Is it just me or does it sound like he's saying "Frog Factions" and "Glitterman Grove " when it's supposed to be Frog Fractions and Glittermitten Grove?
😆👍
Great video as always
Awesome video, one of your best!
I love you Falcon….you pronouncing it Frog “Factions” finally broke me.
Imagine being an actual forklift operator, going home and booting up Shenmue and the next part of the game is the forklift operation lmao
im gonna say that phantom liberty just missed the point of the other ending where no matter someone loses.
And then every single romance options and other important characters either forgot about V or just moved on.
V was going to die no matter what, the aldecados ending will always be canon to me
Damn, Number 4 has stuff from the Conan the Barbarian comics i used to read back in the '80's, as a teenager. The thing wearing a robe, coming down the stairs with tentacles on it's face and hands, the king that has become a worm-ified puss thing, etc.
Gameranx is basically X-PLAY. I loved watching xplay when i was younger! Shit was goated! You give those vibes!
I miss when trailers were to tease you on what to expect, not what you're gonna get.
in the field of creative expression like video game, you learn the rule to slowly break them as a way to innovate
Maybe Shenmue was trying to teach you that revenge is almost always way more effort than it's worth?
0:19 really thought you would talk about portal 2 and the „press space to speak“ joke
Inner Space from 1994 (a Windows 3.x game). It scanned your computer for files. Those files then became part of the game. It was always a bit disconcerting/concerning that you might be damaging the files that got labeled by the game as viruses.
"Pizza tower is anticapitalist"
Finally the Falcon +Peter Coffin crossover episode Iykyk
The Far Cry 4 "easy" ending is more something you fire up the game for again just to get a laugh.
That bus driving one reminded me of a dream I had where there was this game Hitchhiker Simulator. I assume stuff actually happened in the game if you played it how you were meant to, but in the dream I was watching a stream of someone playing Hitchhiker Simulator without ever getting into a car. It took them twelve hours and all they did was walk down this road ignoring anyone who tried to offer them a ride while bantering with a guest streamer and chat. For twelve. hours. I think occasionally they tried to leave the road entirely but I can't remember what happened when they did.
"it's damp squib, frankly im shocked you've gotten this far in life without knowing that"
"everyone has blindspots your honor!"
omg he did it to us hahahah
I was in the middle of fighting Maliketh when Falcon gave the spoiler warning for Phantom Liberty but I couldn't pause because it's Elden Ring so I panicked and knocked my phone off my desk, cracking my screen and then I also died to Maliketh because fml🤦♂️
Can we get a beastie boys like mix of jake and the falcon going back and fourth in one of these countdown videos that would be fire.
Wait! the hellblade developers lied about the dying mechanics😶
I greatly appreciate that Phantom Liberty spoiler warning. Keep on being high quality!
A fun detail in Inscryption is that when PO3 admits he couldn't delete the file he tells you that you should do it manually. If you actually do, he'll mock you for it later.
