The Surge 1 felt like a proof of concept. The Surge 2 feels like a far fuller realisation of Deck 13's vision. It doesn't fix everything wrong with the first game, but it fixes and adds enough that the entire package feels meatier, more fleshed out and noticeably better.

Better hurry up while VPN are still legal in Australia
Here an idea soulslike set in fantasy india/China
I had to get a VPN in order to watch youtube in HD because at&t has started throttling my data after net neutrality was repealed.
Where's the 30 minute hummingbird mating pattern documentary intro with a segue into the game review?
That's EXACTLY what I was thinking! Unsubbed
I knoe rite, I really miss them.

I was boorn...in a prisooon...
That song will forever be carved into my brain; both for how stupid a decision it was to have it replay every time you spawned whilst also being a terribly written metaphor for being wheelchair bound at the start of the game
@@michaelandrews117 it is funny because of how bad it was
Meanie owl would be proud.
it grew on me
@@bearded-ops9400 me too.
500k congrats! Love your reviews, keep it up!
But, are you born in a prison with no hope for escape?
What animal is that in your profile pic? Looks like a real life Eevee. 😋
@@dreamerabe A Fennec Fox.
@@ryumajin3 Ah, thanks.
There's a side mission where the npc is singing that song that got stuck in my head playing the first one.
I really love The Surge series because of its satisfying mutilation system. Thank goodness the devs also seems to properly implement ranged combat & better overall drone system, although I do genuinely wish for actual ranged weapons that player character could use. After all it's a bit Jarring to see no guns or even the likes of crossbow/bows in such futuristic setting. something like a hybrid weapons (i.e. rifle-spear, dual pistols - twin rigs, shotgun-staff, etc) would a good implementation for the overall melee focus combat system.
Amazing game and i totally agree with you.Hopefully part 3 will figure out a cool way of having meaningful melee combat alongside great gunplay.Something a bit similar to The Remnent of Ashes maybe as far as shooting mechanics.Never played it but i hear it's Dark Souls with guns.
I mean I’d argue it’s ok as is in terms of ranged combat with the drone. Maybe denser customisation for them. But it’s really easy to pepper someone with both at once.
Wish you could hold more ammo by standard tho
I think there's still room for improvement, but I'm proud to see the company that represents my country in the gaming sphere is finally getting some positive attention.
i was really surprised that the game is only 9GB on ps4
surge 1 still in my library, free from psplus. is it worth downloading?
@@edmonngo8439 yes it was a great game imo i played it 3 or 4 times i can't remember how many times you got to upgrade your gear on NG+ and NG++ and so on i think it was around 3 or 4
@@ConTodayTempo thanx bro, will give it a go after work. 👍
It's called proper compression, something lacking this gen in aaa games due to forcing unfinished game out the door, day1 patch editions if you will
I said the same on Steam only 11gb

Gratz on the 500k, brother. I still remember finding this relatively small division channel through a brilliant review of Destiny 1. Keep the quality stuff coming.
p.s. Bring back Thiccboi
Not going to watch the review because I don't want it to affect my experience. But seeing you say it's a "SOLID step up" is enough to convince me to buy it on day 1, since I loved the first game so much.
the first game was fucking trash
Riley Grannell Exact opposite actually.
Riley Grannell language
@@ComicsLamar nop, its unfortuantly the truth
Riley Grannell git gud
Bought this last night on xbox (it was half price). Loving it already. I found myself doing loops of the first area to grind a bit before the first boss and wasn't even slightly bored.
I really love the combat in this game. I like getting rewarded for doing things and getting that sweet fucking severing animation.
"It's foliage."
"That's what I said, 'foilage'."
Congratulations on 500k, man. You deserve more, and if you keep up the quality you’ll get just that!
"But seriously, thank you Dech13 for not being Dick13"
aight imma buy this real quick
Gratz on 500k, Ralph. Keep it UP!
One thing I dislike that you didn't mention is the backgrounds, and how they have no impact on gameplay. Would it have really been so hard to add a small bonus dependent on your background into the system?
Thank you for the heads up with those textures- waiting for the day 1 patch
Love watching your reviews. Half the time there for games that I wouldn't of even paid attention to, but after your vid, I totally understand what type of game it is
Played a few hours of the first Surge and this looks pretty good. One thing I've learned as I've gotten older is these precision based games become increasingly more difficult for me. Even though I can hold my own in the Crucible in Destiny 2, running consistently in the middle of the pack, I just can't really complete these games anymore.
I say I have learn be more patient as I got older but I do agree i can not complete games like i use to while also working full time and dealing with arthritis from all these years cutting meat with a big ass saw.
I can definitely see myself getting this but not at the moment. Too many games are dropping at the moment.
Even if u got Borderlands 3 that came out 2 weeks ago. Code vein does come out Friday and ghost recon next week but every other big game is far off and can be rented though redbox except for outer worlds
@@tomasdelcampo2 I don't rent games :). My next big game is dragon quest 11S which is coming out on friday. Plus link's awakening came out last friday. I didn't buy borderlands 3 yet because it's such a busy time for releases.
I think this game is a solid "buy on sale". It's fun, but is in dire need of an optimization patch and hasn't got enough going on to justify $60 and shoving other recent releases aside.
Definitely buying this. Gotta support this universe cause I dig it a lot even with it’s flaws. Just a fun, dark cyberpunk world where I get to slice enemies up! Great vid as always!
My man skill up makes it to 500k. That's great man congratulations
500k subs congrats Skillup
Neither of the Surge games are doing it for me. I think if it went towards a more sleek & fantastical high-tech look instead of everyone looking like they bolted a refrigerator to their torso, I'd be more willing to get sucked into its world. lol
Happy that the fans are getting a good sequel, though! Also, grats on 500k~. o/
There are quite some gear sets that look more "sleek and futuristic" in the first game. Gorgon, Angel VI.... But yeah I get what you mean. A lot of the standard gear looked kinda samey, despite being completely different sets. Would have loved more distinction on a 2 end scale. Like maybe a brute force "bolted together, heavy loader" and a "ever shifting crysis nanosuit"
@@Maschinengoth thats in the game nano shifting armor, armor that cloaks you etc
@@GluttonousLmg not enough for me tbh
@@Maschinengoth that's sad
@@Maschinengoth well have fun with whatever
Great review and all but the highlight was the Elden Ring advert that played beforehand 🥺🥺
Oh shit 500k well deserved man
Well played on the deck reference and poking fun at yourself. That was really funny.
Looking forward to playing this! Loved the first one, beat it twice which is rare for me.
same here. I thought "eh. It's cheap, I'll give it a shot" - ended up beating it on my first ever game playing New Game +. I'm the type of player that gets bored 2/3 through a game and never finishes anything, so it's a testament to its phenomenal gameplay. Surge lead me to Dark Souls which is fun... but nowhere near as fun as I had w/ Surge.
Very recently got the platinum trophy on PS4 loved the game so much
@@ChunkyJo Try Bloodborne instead! The combat is a bit closer to Surge than DS is, imo.
Frankie Basile opinions vary on difficulty within those games, but it’s definitely in the range somewhere - worth trying out for sure!
@@Jesse__H I did actually! I absolutely hated it. I might give it another go, but I found the movement to be abhorrent.
Thanks for another really good review. Been watching a lot of your channel lately. I really appreciate your thoughtful analysis and insights about story, game mechanics, and other details. You so clearly articulate what works, and WHY it works. But you also tell us what doesn't work - without holding back. You clearly put a lot of time and effort in your reviews - they are well-produced, entertaining, and consistently hold my attention from start to finish. With so many game reviewers on CZcams, I've found your videos to be the most balanced, fair, insightful, and useful. After watching your reviews I feel like I can buy games with confidence, fully knowing what to expect. Patreon $ coming.
Love your work as always bub. I do feel like in your last few reviews there have been brief mentions of sekiro... Slyly squeezing it's review into other reviews xD
Bosses offer special rewards if you kill them in the more challenging ways. What those challenges are must be discovered by yourself. That’s pretty amazing imo
logs into youtube - new SkillUp review, uploaded 4 minutes ago - DROP EVERYTHING :)
don't you mean shill up?
sorry, cant trust a reviewer who doesn't use the mikiri counter
Noticed that too. Unless he was doing some kind of challenge run no mikiri ... that was so terrible Sekiro gameplay
Put your trust in the Mikiri counter and you can overcome anything.
I didn't watch him play Sekiro, but that game can be extremely unclear. I didn't find out until NG++ that I could Mikiri counter the roundhouse kicks from the purple ninjas for example.
@@torvamessorem6686 well that's on you it's not a roundhouse kick it's a lunging kick
It litteraly shows the symbol and it's extremely hard to miss
@@Extramark9 I mean let's not exaggerate, he didn't get hit once. Not THAT bad really
Hey Skill Up! Love your in-depth reviews. Correct me if I'm wrong but were you not reviewing Sekiro? Did it drop but I haven't seen it. Cheers and thanks.
He did the review a couple of months ago. You're welcome. czcams.com/video/G1IbRujko-A/video.html
@@dreamerabe wow... I've never seen such praise for Sekiro...
@@reed1645 His review made me want to get it!

Great video as always and grats on 500k but im not gunna lie, Idk how long ive been subbed but I thought he had like 2 mil subscribers lol.
congrats on 500k :)
Make another cars review on java phones dad
btw I love you
@@RobustRouge thank u son :) i will review all the cars games for u
Thanks to this wholesome comment exchange I just checked out your channel, and glad I did. Love how you cover forgotten games. Subbed.
@@dreamerabe 🙏thankyou lots
17:22 Those three legged machines kept me from finishing Surge 1. They were so annoying, that when I reached the final area (I think?), and couldn't run past tougher iterations of them, I stopped playing. I had always intended on going back, but the thought of fighting them made me play something else each time. You basically had to stun them with your drone before being able to properly attack/damage them, which required you to power up your batteries each time. I'm so glad they fixed that this in this.
I hope this means the start of a new Franchise or even a sub-genre within souls-like
I am continually impressed by the quality, depth and frequency of your reviews. The new gold standard.
FIX!
I turned off HDR on my PS4 Pro, which that fixed my texture problem and I experienced no slowdown at all in the nature reserve. It might be just me, but give it a try.
Oh really? I'll have to try it out! Thank you :D
The first game was gnarly I can't wait to play this tomorrow
That fight looked like the axe fight in the new Terminator film.
the tamborine the guy kicks around at 1:16 really has me interested
I’d love to see you review more indie games as I liked your Gris review a lot. It’d be cool as hell to see you talk about stuff like My Friend Pedro, Untitled Goose Game and Sayonara Wild Hearts. Keep up the good work man!
Actually really want to check out SWH
Skill Up you definitely should, I loved it personally. It’s the definition of short and sweet.
What is the beat u used for the "get lost segment" at 3:02 I've Hurd it before and I need to know. Good review btw I'm still playing the game
That Kiwi pronunciation of Deck though.
And cryo lol he actually said creo .
Oh that made me laugh so hard!
@@grimjimbo2059 creo is the name of the company in this game...
@@steveosk8s lol my bad did think it sounded a bit strange.so the research facilities are owned by a company called crio???
Aussies aren't Kiwis tho...
Looks like the devs wanted a cinematic camera. It looks great when Im watching it but I can imagine getting motion sick from the ever moving camera. Hopefully either in a patch or the next game, they'll allow you to selected the camera type.
Thank you for giving this game some much needed attention. So when will you give the Earth Defence Force series some love ???
Skillllll why aren't you absolutely losing your mind over how cool the new parry system is?
Seriously play this game and really get into using parrying in regular combat it changes everything and really sells me on this being the singular best combat in any soulslike game to date.
The heartbeat sound effect at 2:55 felt like a jumpscare.
You're my number one most trusted reviewer. Will grab this when it's on sale (or hope it comes to Game Pass?) because I enjoyed the first game despite all its obvious problems.
Good call! Once it gets patched it'll be a solid GP or $20-30 title imho
I hope they make a Surge 3. Ive played through the Surge 1 and 2 twice now and I want more.
Can't wait to play it later tonight! Loved the first game, this one looks awesome.
I love the health system in this game!!
I’m not the best player but I mastered the health system I will go into a fight with no health and come out of it with full health!
Kinetic energy fills your health bar and you just have to process it and you can do it in the background in the middle of a fight!
I was having the same issue with bosses until I learned how to Parry
As good as the game looks and how the combat feels, having mediocre boss fights is going to be a MASSIVE point of contention for many people. Fighting mobs and exploring is important, but it's the boss fights that are where the meat is. It might be worth it, but I'll wait a bit more.
compare to the first game the first boss in the surge 2 is...easy....putting it lightly.. The first game's boss was Aids and in my opinion a huge contributor to the hate the game received as it was a bit stupid how his hit boxes worked and then after him you do not ever face any bosses that do the same level of action he does until like the Wolf pack boss at the very end which just has replicas of the first boss in it.
Will you do a Shadowkeep review? There are so many recent Luke Smith interviews where he talks about the tough times during the Activision reich, which need to be aknowleged. You’re the perfect man for it.
8:35 the voice making this so intense...
Wearing mickey mouse's hat lol
In the first surge that early cutscene (think starting cutscene) was one of the few times i watched something and felt uncomfortable with what i was watching
Great review mate! Is this coming to the switch?
Sadly no
Skill Up well sh*t :(
Dude, did you film the footage from your tv with a camera?
Skill: this is the lightest and flashiest of the souls-likes.
Nioh: Um, I think you forgot about me, man.
FACTS
@Onion Head Guy Guy Nioh is pretty flashy yes but light? Not really
@@Ashurman666 I used katanas and for me if felt light and quick. The surge did not feel light I actually think that it captured the feeling of being in a heavy suit and swinging big heavy industrial tools extremely well. Haven't played 2 yet though unfortunately I'll have to wait a bit.
@Onion Head Guy Guy Well yeah, they're katanas, what did you expect, for it to feel like you're swinging a tree? ever used a hammer or an axe or an Odachi? They're heavy and slow and it FEELS like you're swinging around a heavy piece of forge metal. And have you ever used Twin rigged weapons in Surge? They are light and quick, as much as a dual Katana is in Nioh
@@Ashurman666 LOL you ain't playing Nioh right or maybe you never played Nioh in the first place. Nioh is by far the fastest Souls-like series, bar none. with the right combo hammer/axe actually become explosive tornado, meanwhile odachi is literally has the fastest "great sword" moveset in all of Souls-like games. It's all depend on "ki pulsing & layers of combos." If you suck at it, sure as hell you gonna be pretty damn slow af.
Something about the graphics of this game and the first just make my eyes glaze over, like I have no idea what's going on and I can't focus on any details. It's weird. Any similar experiences?
Fun fact in the surge 1 you could hop over ALOT of attacks or duck under them with proper timing, yet little people even know this mechanic exists lol
Have you disabled camera smoothing? It disable the camera momentum after you stop moving the stick. It makes the camera more bearable.
This thing looks incredible! Must play this ASAP!
I could never beat the first Surge, but it was really fun until I gave up. Got to one crazy boss area and kept getting hit from all sides and had no idea what was going on. :/
You mention Sekiro in every Souls-like game review now, I feel like you are trolling us SkillUp lol.
Congrats on the sponsor Ralph!
Great review! I was really hoping it would have some Multiplayer. Not just for the sake of it, but because I think a game like this would benefit of something like that. :)
I was hoping for some Co-op in surge 2 at least a summon option to fight bosses together.
I'm saving this game for december break!
tripod enemy was soooo easy to kill but you needed to parry it, it was designed to force you to learn how to parry. Never skipped enemies in the surge the combat was too much fun to do so.
So far my two GOTY choices goes to Surge 2 and the Remnant! Two awesome games!! I hope Surge 2 will have dlc coming this year.
WOOOOO gratz man for 500k. You deserve more 😁
I always appreciate someone enjoying something i can't, nice review!
I'm legitimately excited for this game, thanks for the review!
personally for me i can nvr get into those action games where you push a button and the character does a huge swinging attacking or a spin attack or does something way more complex then just the real life action of pressing a button or pressing the same button three times for a combo like in monster hunter and doing 2-3 different looking attacks and always wished there was more of a control system like there was in the skate games (i kno you wouldnt get to look and move with both joysticks or mouse and WASD but it be fucking cool to run around and swing your mouse or joystick in a specific way to swing your sword in a specific way) in skate it actually felt like i was doing a pop shove it pulling the joystick down and bringing it around the side in the semi circle and it actually felt like doing a hardflip bring the joystick down flicking it to the side then flicking it again diagonally and if you didnt get the right motion down you didnt land the trick now thats what i wish action games where like
fuck i got so distracted by my rant i forgot my point of the comment... in spite of everything i just said about action games this game looks cool as fuck to watch
congrats on your 500k subscribers. Here, have 500k +1 now.
They need to get some people in that boss design
the next surge shall have boss battle feature when u cut a boss battle with a heavy attack, the limbs should be cut off and their limbs would be recovered overtime during a battle. it is on a future theme game and they should make boss battle slow at first cus they got repair parts in their body, the more they use those parts to repair their body they get faster. like you know what i mean and i would love games like that
Im not gonna watch but i had to leave this comment: as someone who holds the first game in incredivly high regard, this makes me so damn excited. I dont think the surge is THAT great a game, but i love it to no end because of what it represents. I played the Surge BEFORE i played LOTF and i learned 2 things from that: Lords of the Fallen is so bad it’s agony, and The Surge did everything right in terms of development. I legitimately could point for point kist how TheSurge addressed the conplaints about LOTF amd not only fixed them, but in some cases turned them into positives. Knowing through your affirmation that TheSurge2 has kept this trend of Deck13’s has me more hyped to pkay it than any amount of marketing and trailers could ever hope to achieve
I look forward to coning back and watching this video in full probably like a year from now
I played LotF after The Surge also lol I found the environments and gear design really cool but otherwise it just felt off somehow and way too easy for it's own good. Surge 2 feels really similar to 1 but despite some gripes I have I can't stop playing it :) Hope you enjoy you, mate!
Out of curiosity, will you be doing a review of shadowkeep next week?
I never had any camera issues in the surge 1 probably because i used keyboard and mouse which worked flawlessly (unlike in souls). So if camera is problem to you and you are on pc give that a shot.
It's fucking unbelievable that you have only 500k subs... A channel of this quality with this much common sense should reach more people.
P.S. Are you gonna review Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, boyo?
I have The Surge sitting in my PS4 PS Plus library and I haven't got around to downloading it to try it yet, just with PS Plus games my backlog is ridiculous, not complaining it's a good problem to have plenty to play:) PS I got A Plague Tale Innocence based on ur review mate and absolutely love it! 👍🏻
For me the most important info is that the combat is re balanced and the environments have improved. I absolutely adore Soulslike games but I just couldnt get past the second area of surge because all the enemies would one shot you and it completely killed any semblance of fun, especially when combined with the super confusing locations where I did not even know where the heck I am and could never find my corpse again over and over. I am a bit worried about the performance part though, I have only regular PS4 and I assume its going to be even worse.
I would try it again. You have to segment your path and focus on where you are going. Don't be afraid to meta if you don't know where to go. It is fairly easy to follow if you eliminate one path one by one and most lead to shortcuts that bring you back to the medbay. I finished the main game in 25 hours (few frustrating deaths) while playing with a light build, focusing on dodging and upgrading core power. I don't plan to take on NG or DLC but am considering this, Dark Souls 3 or Code Vein.
So, i haven't watched the whole video yet... But, I just wanted to say, that a half to a whole year ago, I would watch multiple reviewers - yes, even IGN - not really believing in the "I got one reviewer, in which i trust" idea... You, my good sir, changed that... I'm genuinely like a little happy kid at christmas every time you upload... So, SkillUp... Have a motherfucking great day :)
The void blades are dope!
Lemme tell you about how cool The Serge 2 is.
While running around an open plaza area, I found a hidden hallway off the beaten path covered in boxes and full of poison. I assumed that there must have been something cool at the end of this hallway if it had this much shit in front of it. I ran down the hallway, getting poisoned in the process and at the end of it I found nothing but an entrance to another area. I went through that and fount a small side area that was blocked off from this new area completely. Instead of a cool item I was told to go fuck myself.
But that's not the end of my cool story.
After I had gotten out of there and continued exploring the area, I died to some enemies and left behind a huge chunk of souls. I didn't respawn at the closest robot bonfire, instead the game places you at either the last bonfire you touched or the last place you transitioned into the area from. It put me back at the end of the ass poison hallway. With no heals stalked up to fight the poison and all the enemies respawned, I lost all my hard earned souls. Doesn't help that right outside the poison hallway are 3 guys: one melee, one with a gun and one that tosses molotovs.
Fun game, really improved on the original.
Good luck criticizing this franchise. Apparently anything different than a triple A must be worshipped or you're some sheeple consumer that doesn't know any better.
We definitely must praise mid tier developers listening to feedbacks but these guys had 3 games and still can't figure out a camera or work on a decent narrative cause they're too focused on copying dark souls style? Come on.
I just finished this on the XBOX One X. Loved it and am starting my new game +. Love games that make you have to 'get good' to succeed.
The game is currently on sale on psn for 17.99 until 2/4 I'm kinda interested in getting it myself
My biggest problem with Deck13 games is the Physics. all of Deck13 Physics always feel floaty. they look the same this time around too. To me that is the largest problem they have.
Nice review but I didn't like the first one so I probably won't like the sequel. Being a soulsborne fan it seems lacking atmosphere.
Will you be doing a Code Vein review? I'm interested more in that game as I love the anime aesthetic.
Yep
I'm proud to say that I have bought at least 2 games from your reviews. I really respect the way you do em! Thank you my man!
Digital Prince what 2
@@nero3948 division 2 and far cry 5 new dawn!
Digital Prince ah
I intend to play the last dlc from the first game before getting this one. Got the platinum trophy on PS4 without any struggle.
"this is what Anthem was supposed to feel like"
Is NG+ forced like LotF and the 1st Surge if you defeat the final boss ?
Seems like Deck 13 took some hints from the colleagues from Piranha Bytes, narrative wise.
