Hey guys, you can buy the game here:
store.steampowered.com/app/1378290/The_Citadel/
If you really think so than you must be moronic.
Could you also link me to that "Head On" game. I'm having difficulty finding it with Google.
@Django Fett CZcams keeps deleting my responses, but yeah, you haven't seen a flat chick before? My 45 year old boss is more petite than the thumbnail cutie, don't be weird.
@@YosukesPersona Because it's not "Head On" but Hedon.
@@YosukesPersona head on, apply directly to the forehead. head on, apply directly to the forehead. head on, apply directly to the forehead.
well there goes my title for wolfenstein
hahaha, God fucking dammit Indeimaus 😂
When I saw the video title and thumbnail I seriously thought it was one of yours.
Indei and Gman crossover when? 😏
NOW YOU KNOW HOW CIVVIE FEELS, INDEI!

What a missed opportunity to call it COOM
Well, I feel like we all know that COOM would have to be a game about Dr. Coomer from HL:VRAI

"Wolfenstein is almost 20 years old"
It's actually OVER 20 years old now, sorry. We're getting old!
I think he meant to say "thirty" as it was released in 1992.
I don't mind Wolfenstein is getting old, they're just really shoving down my throat.
>1992 was atleast 40years ago
b-bros..
He probably meant "almost 30..."
Yeah seems gman is the same age as me , 34 , got that Intel from earlyer review. Seems we got the same Passion for FPS pc shooters, so respect gmanlives!!!
Hey everyone! Just a note that we'll be porting & publishing The Citadel to all mainstream consoles (Switch, PS4/5, etc.) as well as additional PC storefronts besides Steam, likely sometime this fall. We're also working with the developer, doekuramori on performance fixes for the game to solve CPU and slowdown issues. Cheers!
Oh shit, publisher showed up.
Please add a fov slider and resolutions past 1080p. Uncapped fps would be nice too.
Cant wait. Thanks top hat!
demo don't work
quite lame
Will you make a linux port?

It would be fucking hilarious if that was the actual reason for gman giving us a waifustein review instead of serious doomguy: the telefraggening.

The sound sounds more like a soldier dying in the original Command and Conquer
Scrolled the comment section looking for this
The Zombieman death scream is actually just a deeper pitch shifted scream from the Command and Conquer game and has become one of the most overused stock sound effects in entertainment.
@@MasterBeast46 then that makes John Carmack not only a super brained AI but that implies he would have had to travel to 1995 to use that sound effect in his 1993 Doom game. I believe it though
@@fieryblender7174 I don't know where the original sound came from but I do know that they used it for the death sound effects in both the first C&C and for the Zombiemen in Doom 1 and 2 so take it as you will

You know all the art makes me think this is a guy who really likes 80-90's anime OR he really like Guro hentai.
Possibly both.
Made me think of Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade myself.
It is really look like from a guro, I'm not sure why but most notably guro from early 2000s has the same styles of appealing, Pretty sure this style ain't draw by the same guy.
I'm glad someone else had the same feeling about the artstyle.
I cant play this mod. The screams and guts are too real.
Yeah that was my thought too...
*Oh man, don't tell me I've been slaying hot girls this whole time.*
Ah, the Brutal memories!
@@rulsis good times i'd say the Devs are still having nightmares about licensing all those wonderful wonderful songs and soundtracks.
As usual, the best work comes from people with very specific and unusual fetishes
Just lol at the soundrips. Some of the sounds are taken not only from Doom but also that C&C fps game.
I immediately recognised the TibSun infantry death noise. "Taking heavy fire!"
Totally recognised C&C too haha
Those Doom sounds are stock sounds anyway. You may find the same sounds in other games.
Gman being converted into a weeb more and more each day.
Guess that Hunniepop 2 review is becoming more of a reality
Wait they made a 2nd one?
Lemme get my tissues...
@@ultrainstinct4060 They have a trailer
Still waiting for the Maitetsu review tbh
Love how much this reminds me of Marathon. Marathon is a completely underrated series which many people just dont know about. All the marathon games are also free and open source now.
Maybe you can do a video on them? Would love to see that.
The channel Errant Signal is doing a fps retrospective and last week did a video essay on Marathon.
I think I’ve requested he do Marathon multiple times before but each time the comment gets buried.
The combat has that marathon feel. Slower projectiles, enemies have a lot of momentum. Combat has a similar pace. Only thing that I don't like about this game are the lack of weapon bob and few frames in the animations.
@Channel07 it is horrible unnatural for me
I would definitely play the Marathon games if Aleph One wasn't such a crap Source Port. The interest is there, but I don't see any good way to play those games.
Okay we have two textures for the walls and floor... That will do it.
Come for the reviews, stay for "Your mum" jokes
S C H W A C K E D
personally, I'm quite partial to the emphasis on the word "BITCH"
Im more into this shiiiieet
Actually the death animation sound also reminds me from red alert1.
Yeah, immediately thought of Command & Conquer.
UNIT LOST
UNIT LOST
I cant get past the 5 textures being used in a FPS shooter, when act 1 seems and feels like all the other acts well il pass, even Wolfenstein used some New different textures with Each episode
I was thinking the same thing! First minute of the video I was like "man this game looks pretty cool." 5 minutes into the video I was like "that's a lot of blue walls."
Yeah, that's exactly what jumped out at me. Gameplay seems fun, but visually a nearly 30 year old game like Wolf3D has it beat.
5 textures for 5 FPS. Big ball drop imo.
I also notice the complete lack of lighting. Everything is the same fixed ambient level. That's something I'd easily overlook if there were rich textures to make up for it.. but nope.
I mean, I get it's one guy doing this but still. Seems lazy and rushed. I don't think Gman got this one right. Icarus got it much more on the nose with his criticisms of this game.
11:05 1992 "almost 20 years ago"
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT
And here I thought it was actually called “Waifustein 3D”
*Sees thumbnail
-This is a 300k+ views video boys, trust me.
Good excuse to have games like these on your steam libary : "Im playing these for review purposes.."
"A weapon designed to use against your mom!" I miss SHWACKED :(
I just watched amazing Marathon documentary, called Children of Doom: Marathon
And here is GGMan referencing it in the first minute of the video
I was going to give this a try since I'm weeb trash, but this thing has higher system requirements than DOOM Eternal, so my popato is out of the question.
Well, back to playing Postal 2.
What are you talking about the game needs 2 gigs of ram to play.The game is less needy that postal one
Nvm I just checked again.Oof intel core i5 and 8gigs of ram.For what.
@@papakrit7166 Yes, a 10th generation i5 plus a 6GB graphic card (for minimum requirements).
The only logical explanation is that since this is a one man job, he hasn't made any type of code optimization.
Also check this put (NSFS BTW) and tell me that slide show needs that much horse power:

@@BastardWolf28 Having messed with the UDK a little: That's *exactly* what's going on. Unreal is built around a whole team of people that know what they're doing, as it makes you do most of your own resource management. It doesn't take much at all for it to take a steaming dump all over your PC. Unity, for instance, sacrifices some poweruser comfort by doing more of the backend work for you.
I think Postal 2 has more guro than This.
this is just stupid gore stuff like grezzo 2.
The areas are way too bland, like, amateur doom level kind of bland. Same color pallete everywhere, could use change.
I have to agree. Also, there is no variation in the lighting. Everywhere and everything is on fullbright.
@@WarDankEagle Yeah. Even Wolfenstein 3D had textures with distinct colors, and the walls facing different direction had different brightness as well.
Drink your soda, bubbly boi
Well, this is now my favorite fps. As of posting this comment, I have played it for about 40 hours. Some tips for the weapons:
The axe's alt-fire does a massive amount of dps, and is very good for dealing with enemies like tanks and flamethrowers, along with the angel of sloth.
Grenades can be cooked and thrown while doing other things, like kicking, shooting, and reloading. This is good for dealing with multiple groups of enemies at once.
The shotgun can be fired extremely fast by rapidly alternating reload and shoot. This is basically a budget shockhammer. EDIT: that was a bug, which was patched. Narrow choke is good for dealing with enemies at mid-range.
The smgs are generally good to pull out for a bit to take down a mid strength enemy or two, and are very good for shooting down enemy bullets. Also, a single SMG is generally more accurate than the auto-rifle.
The rocket launcher can be used to rocket jump. It used to only work on the ground, but now it's possible to use multiple rockets to scale walls or recover from missed jumps.
I feel like, despite the arsenal being absurdly large, each weapon had it's own use case, while not being overly specific. I could probably write a paragraph for every weapon in the game, but if I decide to do that it will be in a guide on steam, and it will not be a first draft like this comment is.
EDIT: I've played the citadel for over 70 hours now. I turn most of the difficulty settings all the way up, aside from enemy health. I even used the cheat menu to turn on taint. My favorite levels are the more open ones, as I feel like the movement really gets to shine in them. I feel like it's the only FPS I've mastered.
What does taint mean?
@@blenky5516 Taint is a secret setting in the cheat menu. If it's on, using health packs fills up a meter, the more full it is, the more your aim wobbles, and if it gets all the way full, the player character throws up, looking down and stopping for a moment.
The mom jokes straight up never, EVER stop being funny to me. I'm way too old to think that shit is as hilarious as I do.
Gonna miss "shwacked"
Beat the game, and played even more of it. Despite the lack of polish, crashing, and inconsistent feeling, was more than worth the time and money.
"waifu of heddon"
gmanlives do we need to talk about something
When are these retro shooters going to come up with something else than cultists in robes, that kind of enemy peaked with Blood anyway two decades ago
They're cool tho
No they're boring and unimaginative
Waifus are just a beautiful bonus, I've been looking for an FPS game that doesn't use a hit scan system for a while now.
I think all fps games should projectile based, becuase that's what guns fire, pojectiles, who knew.
@@vitalsignscritical I think most devs use the hit scan system because is easier to program, I'd understand if it were an indie dev with one or a few people working, but a lot of tripe-A games still use hit scans.
@@kurtmorales7644 Well hitscan is easier to program and less resource intensive, but that doesn't really matter on modern machines, most modern fps use hitscan because it provides a lower skill ceiling when it comes to the shooting and it only really becomes apparent at longer ranges with faster projectiles. Insurgency Sandstorm uses a hybrid system where depending on the guns range stat it stays hitscan until that value and then turns into a projectile to minimize the problems that can arise with physics simulation of projectiles at closer ranges where they would be more noticable and also save some perfomance. big companies use it cause its snappy and easy to use and "standard" basically.
Play Borderlands
"I mean, even in Wolfenstein 3D, they had sprites for the back of every single enemy in the game, and that shit's almost 20 years old now"
... Which one of you guys wants to tell him? 'Cause I aint doing it.
Needs more blood, more colors and variety for the textures and smoother weapon animations
I agree.
also need more last stand like brutal doom
Hes slowly becoming into waifu games or mods. Well he finished gal gun and gal gun vr...

Don't forget he's reviewed hdoom
@@aryabratsahoo7474 oh right. One of his most viewed video lmao.

The store description seems like it's almost copied and pasted from Project Warlock.
"The Citadel is a first person shooter that fans of Doom, Marathon and Wolfenstein 3D cannot miss. Descend into the depth of a dark citadel and fight through 6 Episodes and 30 levels of action packed with 6 challenging bosses."
"Project Warlock is a first person shooter that fans of Doom, Hexen and Wolfenstein cannot miss. It serves you an exploding cocktail of bullets, spells and monsters. Battle through 60 levels of non stop action packed with bloodthirsty enemies and challenging bosses."
I sounds more like 2 people who don’t really know how to write a description so they made it as objective as possible, and it happened to fall down the same path.
That's a common format of video game descriptions. What are you on about?
'Tis a dark day for gamers when their hard earned PC's get melted by a game such as this.
Can't way to see Civvie play this thing.
Hope it has a sewer.
"Pro Citadel when, Civvie?"
We still need Pro TNT to make him suffer some more.
@@HyperionStudios Didn't he say he already captured footage for the episode, but scrapped it because it would have been boring?
@Chris Handsome Perfect, I love it when Civvie bitches about stuff. His negativity is his strongest asset.
Since the start of this video my brain is like "this looks a lot like 40k"
Ye, the soldiers look like Death Korps of Krieg and Steel Legion guardsmen and the Cultists look just like the Tech Priests.
one of the weapons is named heavy bolter
the death sounds remind me more of the ones from CnC 1
Yeah, we can still hear it on the Remastered Collection.
Waifustein looks nice :D
death sounds like Command & Conquer infantry, Zombieman, and Wilhelm Scream are all the same thing just completely wrangled through pitch shift, bitrate change, clipping & modulation.
Thought that sounded an awful lot like command and conquer
One of the guns is a Heavy Bolter. She fights for the Emperor!
"The Whale Gun, a weapon designed to be used against your mum"
Easily one of my favorite quotes from you now lol. I can just imagine a milf going:
"What do they call you sweetie?"
"...The Whale Gun..."
This game juxtaposes an at-times cute anime aesthetic with post-humanism, ultra violence and darkness. It gives me a vibe much like nechronica. I dig it.
Yes! I tagged you and Civvie in the devs Twitter post when I saw how small the reception was to the release. Was hard to believe such an impressive little project wasn't getting more attention but I'm not even sure the dev was sharing in the usual places. Glad to see you played it and enjoyed it!
Just know that there is a sequel in the works called Beyond Citadel with a demo currently out.
Judging from early impressions it seems to be quite good.
Where can you play the demo?
@@Gggmanlives Did you get my reply? It doesn't seem to show up for me. CZcams might have eaten the comment.
The gibs of anime girls make me extremely uncomfortable.

@Charlie Vetsworth Fuckin yikes.
Cleanse, purge, kill.
I dont know if its just me but the gore is making me feel a bit uneasy in that game.
I dont mind gore in games usually but there is something about this that makes me shudder a bit.
probably its because you’re killing anime girls, because their remains walk around hopelessly and because their death screams are not demonic screams from demons, but a anime-like scream from an anime girl
@@sparkyboi4387 I really dont like how these big anime eyes look at you when they crawl around, I think that its more human than demon like is the thing that gives me the creeps.
Duncan Cook
same
Does anyone know what it is about making these 2.5d fps games in modern engines that leads to bad framerates when things get busy? Project Warlock and especially Nightmare Reaper can have these moments where the framerate just plummets.
It's a unity issue
It is a problem of way too many entities spawned at once, every engine has this problem.
Basically neither Unreal nor Unity will optimise for you if you have 1000 enemies at the screen each shooting 1000 bullets at you. Having said that, both engines can easily support this game and the others you've mentioned, but the developer needs to optimise from their end.
@2:47 sounds like a pitch shifted version of a minigunner in Command & Conquer dying
Icarus: It's fucking RAW.
Gman: *looking forward to the citadel 2*
I love this two reviewers.
Sounds like the cultists from Blood's death scream is pitch-shifted too
There is something so creepy about this game. The screams of girls, the simplistic environments, the violence clashing with the cute anime aesthetic, it all gets on my nerves. Honestly this feels like a game that starts out normal but gets worse and worse as you play.
I wasn't notified of this video yet I am subscribed with the bell enabled and still didn't know about this recent video until I looked on your channel while searching for the H-Doom mod!

*Cue the sound clip of Marv getting electrocuted in Home Alone 2*

This game looks pretty neat, but there's better ones out there.
...that character design for the protag tho... looks like it's time to make a trip to good ol' Pixiv.
Bruh
I wasn't going to wake up til I saw the notification...god damn these high quality reviews
I just recognized the bullet ricochet sound from marathon.
I must disagree with Gman
The best combo weapon is still the chaingun/rocket launcher from Painkiller
Shurikens and Lightning.
Finished this game recently and loved it. Great review by the way, I'm glad more people are diving into this hidden gem. I hope the developer knows his efforts were worth it, no matter how much unwarrented harassment he got from people who were never going to play his game. He deserves better.
What was the music in the intro?
the title alone convinces me already
Weeb eternal.
This game would be great with better art / more variety in scenery.
Also, odd choice in mixing pixelated textures with full res draw sprites... And the animations are just sub par compared with the apparent polish in the mechanics.(many are just interpolated movement as with the axe, others are the same sprite warped).
Kinda pity
Yeah, the artstyle isn't exactly what I'd call consistent and the scenery is just drab.
@Charlie Vetsworth that's hardly a valid rebuttal.
This is a product that's being sold and people have a right to be critical about it. My wallet doesn't care how many people have to split the money.
And the whole "you do better" thing is so tired and cliché, not to mention totally irrelevant when judging a product.
Gives me almost marathon vibes
The scream used is a common stock sound that was used in Doom and in Command & Conquer
The FPS drops are probably due to the game having to keep track of every single projectiles. Add a couple explosions and if the code isn't optimal you have yourself a real shit show.
8:50 They could've made this a build engine game and it would've had better framerate, lol.
have you played ion fury? that was a build engine game and the framerate wasn't always smooth
I'd never heard of this before. Looks awesome. Will definitely check it out.
"nothing bad has ever come out of letting you shoot a shotgun faster"
Battlefield 3 flashbacks "HE'S GOT THE USAS WITH FRAG ROUNDS!!!! GET THE TANK!!!!!"
Not gonna lie, when I saw the title card and the name I thought this was an indiemaus video, color me surprised when it was actually FPAussie himself.
the "weapon straight in the middle" thing doesn't really work in this as well as in Doom. I think the angle and lack of frames is to blame.
The explosion distortion during bullet time is a nice effect. Brings back F.E.A.R. memories with the shotgun.
The bar and pickupfx Looks pretty Marathonish
I saw the guy with the flamethrower and thought: "It's cold... But... Burning... warms up... a bit..." Hans? Pumpkin Scissors?
I fucking love that someone else thought of this.
Well this showed up in my youtube recommendations and then I bought the game after watching lol. Yeah I loved Project warlock and Ion Fury, so this is right up my alley. Thanks for bringing this game to my attention mate
My recommended tab scares me now
Love the rawness of your reviews ;-)
I feel bad for those waifus... but damn that gore just so satisfiyng
Stop Waifu on Waifu violence
I could swear that the enemy "augh" scream is also some stock sound, as I am certain I have heard it on c&c3 mod tiberium essence.
I wish we got a brutal version of marathon
Just looks like a doom mod that we have to pay for.
It's up to the creator to release it for free or for charge...
@@HeyItsJonny Uhh i know. I'm saying it doesn't look any different than your average doom mod these days. So seems lackluster to release it for money when you can get the same experience for free. It needs something more, something to make it worth it.
@@DukeoftheAges the gun mechanics don't look bad at all . But the art and the lack of texture variety is what throws me off, even while taking away that I'm not into weeb
@@DukeoftheAges You're right, there are more appealing Doom mods that are free.
Guncaster. Brutal Doom. Scythe. The compendium. Project brutality. The golden souls. Aliens tc is one I haven't played yet but I will soon. Also cats visor and brutal Doom monsters only, and even weapons of Saturn or smooth Doom if you want some vanilla enhancements.
But it's still the creator who sets the price

Two things you missed:
1: If you look down in the game you see your body, which is awesome anyway but extra awesome as you're confronted with the Martyr's blessed bosom.
2: Q and E allow you to lean around corners, which IMO is a feature more FPS games need.
This is the best Ghost in the Shell inspired game we got.
