7:20 These were kickstarter exclusive things apparently, the dev wasn't able to hide them on the store page for some reason and didn't want people non-KS to buy them, so raised the price and told people not to pay for it. Guess it's just a bit of incompetency with potential reward for if someone wants it really bad.
Aaaahhh, strange, but fair enough.
why didn't he just give out codes with the backer kit? Was he THAT DEVOTED to BACKERS ONLY?
Kind of seems stupid to me.
@@8Kazuja8 From what I can tell it's a case of inactivity due to low demand.
@@SavageGreywolf He actually really was. Back when he explained to backers that he would have to put them up for sale like he wound up doing he was super apologetic about it. Kept beating himself up over it even.
Or its a money laundering scheme, some (now banned) devs used steam dlcs to launder money using the same tactic - very cheap asset-flip game, several dlcs for $100-150 that gave nothing but "a golden skin".
Other explanation does not make any sence, you can hide items very easily, and can even add non-store packages and make them key-only, hundreds of devs do that.
Here’s the translated Chinese words in 2:48 by the naked minecraft person
“Hello Players and Friends,reporting our recent activities and progress”
“(Company name) was our sponsor and publisher of the game”
“But unfortunately because of the lack of fundings,the company disbanded earlier in the year”
“Although our progress and developing teams were affected by this”
And that was all He said before it cuts away but I think they will still keep updating this game but it would probably be a lot slower
@i hate anime you okay buddy? take a quick breather, you're gonna be fine.
@@april5054 cus of his name I'm 90 percent sure it's a joke
@i hate anime you just watched too much hentai.
@fucku weebsnfurries no hentioi is nice
That is quite sad ngl
Well, about "Dark SaSi" game. It's actually not just a meme game, but a meme game made as a dare in a week. The point was to prove that anyone can make "souls-like" in a week with premade models. I believe it was made with unity.
i mean, it was barely a game.... It wasn't a win.
I'm sure falling animation is from Unreal Engine 4 Third-person Template
The thing is that the game was made by some russian dude whose previous games where much nothing than a shitpost horrors with free unity assets
Even name of this game dark sosi could be translated to dark suck
Gotta love how surprised he is that he missed the jump off the bridge (6:15). Especially so when you consider that his intro for the game was a voiceover with a screenshot of the bridge in the background... with a bunch of people missing the jump off the bridge (4:48).
"I've got dogs chasing me, a guy with a hammer and I'm naked." sounds like a pretty standard Saturday night to me.
FloridaMan.mp4
@@Shilobotomized lmao
"So my foots totally stuck in there right, I'm freaking out, the dogs having a seizure, and I still got half a pie left"
Three guys one hammer
That sentence pretty much describes all of Dark Souls...
2:50 The texts roughly translates into the Dev saying that the game has run out of budget and they can’t support it anymore
Wow thats sad. The game looks kinda good
I think they said theyll postpone most of their development schedule or sth.
It’s the publisher got broke.
But it’s kinda the same situation. Sucks ,still.
Why add multiplayer before finishing the game... sounds like som bad budget decisions right there.
@@hoeglund8995 It was supposed to be a launch title for a console by another Chinese company, but they stopped development on the console in 2019 due to financial issues, which I'm assuming is why work on the game has stalled. They actually still update the game with bugfixes and stuff, the last patch was last week. [Although one of the updates simply reads 'Depressed'] As far as I know the full game actually exists already (ie. levels, assets - its still a bit unpolished obvs), it just isn't in the early access version. Its possible they're looking for a new publisher to take the finished game to or something like that. I think the reason they're adding stuff like altenate game modes now is to support the existing playerbase and, yknow, feed their children.
"Code vein has 2 dlcs"
Shows screenshots of both dlcs being reviewed entirely negatively.
Yeah we should totally play those
Now it has 3. They add little to the game beyond customization and all 3 together are worth the price of one, so they all have negative reviews because of that. The content isn't bad, it's just not justifiably priced.
Code vein wasnt a good game.
@@denisrybak-posselmann4734 Meh, Dark Souls is over rated. Opinions on the internet.
The creator of this video did it intentionally. He doesn't like code vein
@@christianbrewster2571 u sure??
"Its going to come to life and kick my ass isn't it?" you just described every dark souls enemy ever.
lmfaoo
But my ass isn't going to kick itself, so they take the initiative... And my ass.
About the Strength of the Sword dlc. Originally it was a kick starter game, and some of the backer rewards were exclusive dlc skins. However towards the tail end of development shit started to go south, and the two man dev team ended up splitting up leaving only one guy to try and get the game shipped. Among various difficulties he couldn't figure out how to integrate the backer skins into the game so that only the backers would be able to unlock them. His solution was to make them all DLC packs, and then set the prices on them ludicrously high so that normal players wouldn't buy them, and then just give out free dlc codes to said backers. It's a messy fix, but it was a messy situation over all, and the guy really did his best to try and make sure everyone got what was promised to them. So no, it's not a meme or anything, you're legit supposed to be deterred away from buying them.
That's quite sad. But salute to the guy who sticks with it until the end, maybe i will try the game It looks promising.
Thank you for the lore, this is a really sad story. Big kudos to the guy who stood to the end.
Oh wow, that's unexpected. Great attittude from that dude.
That's pretty smart if you ask me. A lot of developers would have pussied out and let the backers without their promised rewards.
Actually sad to hear this. The game looked like it had great deal of potential. Really wanna try it.
2:50 It’s a message from the devs. They are saying their publisher went into financial troubles and shut down. So the development of the game also got stalled.
Wéeb......
@@ooferrell lol
Well, shit
Strength of the Sword Ultimate has *an interesting review that references you, Pineapple*
"I helped Kickstart Strength of the Sword Ultimate years back with a LOT of money. It's a solid game and the combat is too deep for me but I absolutely love that.
The game has an incredible Multiplayer Suite but there isn't the life in the fanbase for it.
The DLC's are likely because the guys who worked on the game didn't know how to hide the special backer content to let people who had the codes access them.
If the recent Iron Pineapple video helps bring this game to life, I'll be eternally grateful."
Ah the line about the dlcs actually explains a lot
Ah except the dlcs only released on steam. They never sent us other huge time backers our codes. I spent 750 bucks on strength of the sword and I'll tell you now...that games dead. The dev's abandoned it.
Jacks Wonderful Nightmare that honestly seems like your fault that you spent THAT much money lmao 😂
I have money, I own two businesses and stream for extra cash. Not a big loss at all,but by your reply I can tell it is to you. XD
@@jackswonderfulnightmares That isn't even a diss. You turned what could have been a valid critique of the developers into an attempt to do a weird flex to a stranger on the internet. Now you just seem pathetic.
3:03 "This game has multiplayer?" - no it has Mutiplayer
When that dude started flipping out and going all like “YEPWOSJDHIWIAOKFJAOKJRBEBJAIJDHAHAUJAAHJJAJAJJHHHHHHH”
And started breakdancing? That was fun
He was speaking Russian, someone translated the text in the comments. It's basically "AHHH! OH SHIT OH FUCK OH SHIT OH FUCK!"
@@LnPPersonified "sasi" in the name of that game is translate to something like "suck a dick" . an big dude breakdancing and scream "such a bitch fucking such a bitch fucking WOW bitch fucking WOW"
His name is Glad Valakas, you can find him on youtube
I didn't expected this Russian fun-made game here.
Сраный Валакас даже здесь он меня настиг. Никогда его не любил.
6:42 Very important
"I can't save the sister dude I'm doing a puzzle for a chest right now!"
Any game that makes you say this sentence is worth my money.
Agreed
„Chest ahead“
That’s just Bioshock lmao
Switch the letter "a" in that sentence to "her" and you won the internet!
I wheezed when the sister got bellyslammed by a Left 4 Dead Boomer
I ended up reviewing Lucah: Born of a Dream when it came to the Switch, and yeah, that game is, in fact, extremely dope.

It's not Vin Diesel. It is Zmyshenko Valery Albertovich, he is veteran of three wars and national hero
2:55 the guy speaks on behalf of the studio, basically their sponsor company had disbanded and they have no more funding to develop the game further
That's interesting. Man, I'd love to learn Mandarin.
damn that's a real shame, it feels very close to being a great game
Damn, that sucks. :/
@@8Kazuja8 wouldn't call it a souls clone, seems more like 50/50 of Ninja Gaiden and Nioh
@@TheHeavyModd I mean nioh is also a souls clone (a good one but still) so a clone of a clone is still a clone of the original.
What I've learned from these souls-like videos, the more cute or unique the art style, the better the gameplay.
7:00 someone wanted to make a souls-like but ended up making a "darksider-like" game that is underratedly so fun 🤣🤣
The Strength of the Sword DLC was due to a mistake with Kickstarter rewards, so they had to put them in as “DLC” to try to work things out, or something.
Regardless, the project put a huge strain on the two creators as they got hype and bit off more than they can chew and at the end, one had to leave due to personal issues, leaving one to try to support the game themself.
Despite initial huge support for the game, the development took too long and just hurt the Devs, then they had no visibility on the Steam shop so I think they’ve had to give up before the stress kills them. My guess at least. Poor dude.
Just one of those bad situations that despite the success and the enthusiasm from the developers, things can still go bad.
Oh now Im sad :(
welp here comes my purchase
Yeah, I think stories like this are why I really dislike how it's common to refer to any Kickstarter that doesn't work out as a Scam. Sometimes it just legit doesn't work out, that's just part of the risks of crowdfunding.
But why make them $200? If they're legally obliged to make DLC because of kickstarter why not make some 50c effortless skin
@@guytheguy2642 the skins were supposed to be just for Kickstarter backers, that's why they are 200 bucks, nobody else is supposed to have em.
"Dud you gotta help me", "No, im unlocking this chest right now". Like in every multiplayer game with friends.
Watched all 3 of these videos and I'm hooked! Can't wait to see more of these.

Hellpoint: Thespian Feast is crazy. Art style like a Souls or Bloodborne, but with some Dead Space touches and...jesters? Runs pretty well for the Unity engine, too!
Salt and sanctuary?
14:42 : Shattered is a game that started development about 6 or so years ago. The team as I knew them back then was composed of a couple programmers from my IT school (Epitech) and some artists from another school (e-artsup iirc who's part of the same school group, IONIS Education Group... or Was it the Bellecour art school ? can't remember...).
I obviously can't talk for the state of the team right now since i kinda lost contact with these guys a few years ago... but the issue they were facing at first was the imbalance between how many programmers they had versus how many artists they had. All of them are talented people (artists and programmers alike), but that imbalance was slowing them a bit in their progress...
It's IONIS. Given it's from 6y ago I don't think it was the Montpellier campus?
@@Biouke Lyon
I started playing Shattered last summer because it looked interesting. Since the day I started to play they did alot updates and it feels they working hard on it. Every new update seduce me to play it again so I gain 81h playtime for game (part) that could be finished in 2-4 hours.
Also tell me if i'm wrong, but from what I heard epitech gives no to little lessons on Game Design compared to other schools, it's mostly a programmation / technical school isn't it? If so, shoutout to them for making a competent game imo
@@zat9894 Yes, Epitech teaches you the very base of programming. Then you can, through the years, specialize in something. But when they started, these guys had no experience in working on games of such scale.
Dark SASI - actually russian meme souls. Even "sasi" is mispronounced "соси" what means "suck".
more like "succ"
DARK SUCC
I really don't get his bias against it. 6:19 is the essence of the souls platforming, it's captured brilliantly.
@@user-ti8ih8pz5w лул : D true though
So it means something like "Dark BJ"?
This was genuinely interesting to watch. Thank you for making this.
"I turned in a dog!" I hope dogs don't look like that where you are coming from...
*How to make a Souls-like game Interesting:*
1. Give the player the ability to turn into a Dog

@@GabeSweetMan So just like when you turn into the dog in Tenchu?
@@MaskofFayt or when ur name is probably Sif
Worked in Rise of the Triad.
"I really appreciate you"
Did that make anyone else sad? The dev must have known how bad the game was, so they "appreciated" you even giving the game the effort to go all the way to the end. Man, I feel like an asshole for laughing at it now.
I hope the dev will continue to work hard to make some good games one day. It’s a little sad to see that but everyone has to start somewhere. I hope a rough start won’t deter them
@@Royal_Fortune Everyone begins from somewhere, after all, and some are less open to admitting their humble beginnings than others.
Really hope the dev makes something really good, they have a lot of potential.
Crusader Siegward, Bringer of Hugs for sure! The dev already had a leg up on me any how so I’d say that’s a pretty good start. I couldn’t even learn to script properly and get anything running. There’s potential to grow and I hope it gets realized in full.
@@Royal_Fortune I'm sure you'll do great in some other field.
But yeah, we'll just have to wait and see what the good dev pushes out next!
Its a shitty translation from a Chinese unity asset flip.
When I saw Lucah: Born of a Dream, I was hit with a sudden certainty that it was related to another game I had played (though I have found no such evidence).
Speaking of: The game I thought of is called Nocturnal: Phantasms, and it also markets itself as a soulslike. It might be interesting to play it in a future Steam Dumpster dive (despite it not being on Steam)
IM SO FUCKING GLAD YOU GAVE LUCAH SOME COVERAGE seriously that game is fantastic and deserves more recognition.
Ah random steam indie games where there is a 50% chance of finding something funny, and a 50% chance of wasting 2 bucks

And 0.1% of finding a hidden hem
The Strength of the Sword Ultimate DLC thing is cause those are Kickstarter rewards, but they couldn't add them without making it DLC. So they had to make it expensive in the hopes no one would buy it.
...There must have been a smarter way to do that. I refuse to believe there wasn't. If there isn't than there should be cause that just makes the game look bad. Steam. Steam! What you doing steam!?
@@zeterzero4356 I agree. It puts a lot of shade even with the reasoning.
Yea ok
"they couldn't add them without making it DLC."? How is that the case? Makes no sense at all, there is no rule stating that everything that is in the game must be available as dlc.
That's... just how steam works. Kickstarter isn't a part of the steam, so they don't automatically get the content when playing the game. The only way they could of made it different was to code in some sort of content reward system, which would be hard to code and just a waste of effort when it could be done easier (Via the DLC method)
my heart melted reading that "I appreciate you" endgame message
"Lord Undead" must have been named by an 8 year old

I can personally vouch for LUCAH: Born of a Dream. Really fun combat and extremely good oppressive atmosphere.
Also, for those who do play it: make sure to play through it more than once. The second playthrough adds *a lot* of really interesting stuff.
Idk about you, but I am very much drawn to Lucah's art style 13:35
Watching you play just lets me know how much of a non gamer I really am, haha. Playing something I do like for more than a couple hours seams crazy and here you are just kicking ass and having a great time. I hate souls games, but I love your channel
My cousin made Lucah Born Of A Dream and it means so much to me that you played and recommended this game to others. Thank you.
I tried to talk to him so he's maybe gonna answer you or something
Sounds great
I just bought Lucah like a week ago, a close friend recommended me it and just let me tell you that your cousin is insanely talented and that Lucah in general has probably been so far for me, probably one of my favourite games ever done, I love absolutely everything about it and just everything really resonated with me on a personal level specially most of the dialogues and characters too. It really deserves much much more popularity your cousin is genually amazing.
U seem cool too must say!
"One Monster Hunter-like game you've probably heard of" and it's just a 15 minute roast of Dauntless is my best suggestion
So, pretty much just a review of Dauntless then?
Where does that hate for Dauntless come from, though? It's a pretty polished, free game in the genre of Monster Hunter. It's not trying to be the next Monster Hunter (I understand that the marketing suggests otherwise) but rather to be an alternative. The devs are incredibly active, so the game gets big content updates quite frequently and smaller patches in-between those. I mean, I might be biased because I'm kinda involved with the game (tho I did like it before that) but I don't think it deserves all the shit it gets from people who expect a perfect AAA experience from a completely free indie game without any kind of pay2win.
@@Sutherus because they sold their soul to tim sweeney
Heck man, make it a whole Monster Hunter-like(?) episode.
Dauntless, Toukiden, God Eater.
There are probably others.
Sadly, I think Toukiden restricts multiplayer to arena fights, and God Eater might restrict almost the entire game to arena fights not sure about its latest entry.
@@DoctorShroom Toukiden actually has some fun weapons though, as well as unique oni, dauntless just has super boring enemies.
@@MrTurok999 i like roleplaying as kenshiro in toukiden 2 and beating oni to a pulp with the gauntlets.

Dude! This is the first video I've seen from your channel, but that RuneScape song at the end just killed me!
Great video btw.
I bought Lucah: Born of a Dream on Switch when it released based purely on its visual aesthetics and did not regret it one bit. That game is highly underrated or maybe just unknown. Please people, give it a chance.
I did but ended up refunding it
The control settings in pc are messy af
I was having issues so I tried to change the config, it went to crap, so I closed the game and opened it again, the configuration fucked up yet more. at this point with a single button the game chose a shit ton of random options
And I assure you I was not messing with it, literally pressed one button and it just randomly went to shit

1:27 " The ultimate technique where I just keep using this one move, unbeatable"
So pretty much just like dark souls. 10/10.

Unpopular opinion: the game is totally cliche anime 3D game, but seems decent. Would cop it if it wasn’t in another language.
Dude I bought that lucah born of a dream game and absolutely adored it, it's definitely a bit niche but if you like how it looks it's a wonderful experience. I got almost every achievement before getting sick of playing.
Great series as well found some new and interesting games to play.

@@camilofuentes7056 The first half of the game is very good and the boss battles are very fun, combat is smooth if unnecessarily difficult with some weapons (in my experience), though I found the story particularly lacking in the endgame. Worth the money and has replay value but don't expect a masterpiece, I suppose.
So, nobody will talk about how awesome "Bright Memory" is and it was developed by one guy????
It is pretty good, got it a day ago and, yeah, it is a fun, short and very promising thing, if the author makes another game like this (hopefully that is longer with help of more workers) this could be quite interesting.
Looks really good looks like that game Breakpoint. To be developed by one guy and look that good is impressive
It's VERY short and uses TONS of assets (with a large portion of them being illegally used.) But god damn is it fun as hell and super cool.
Looks like a proof of concept demo / portfolio piece. I'm sure we will see him working with a full team / studio on a larger game sometime soon.

"Why this game is so dark"
Because its name is dark sasy
, Duh !
Hey, Strength of the Sword is on here, awesome! I was a backer when that game was on Kickstarter, just wanted to mention that the $200 DLC is there because the devs couldn't find a way to deliver kickstarter-exclusive DLC skins without listing them on the Steam store, so they ended up just putting them up at ridiculous prices so they could deliver the keys to backers. Anyway, keep up the great work on these videos man, they're a lot of fun!
There had to be a better way. I refuse to believe Steam doesn't have a better way if handling something like that. Steam, why, why yo do this to these poor devs? Why?
@@zeterzero4356 I mean, can you name a Steam game with de-listed DLC? I sure can't. But think of all the pre-bundle season pass dlc options that have been eclipsed and made obsolete by steam bundles, and yet the original season pass dlcs are still listed for purchase on the store as well. XCOM 2's Reinforcement Pack is a prime example. The XCOM 2 collection bundle currently contains the reinforcement pack, the original season pass for XCOM 2, which itself is made up of three other dlcs, each also sold separately. The season pass has been completed for years, and it only makes sense to remove the reinforcement pack from the store and convert it into a bundle, so that customers don't end up getting confused or buying the same dlc twice. But 2K/Valve don't do that.
If a kickstarter game wants to give digital DLC backer rewards, but de-list the items from the store, I don't know of a way to do this directly with valve. It usually involves a 3rd party account and unlocking content outside of the steam platform, which is another logistical nightmare for a small developer in and of itself.

-Can break stuff
-There's a jump button

Yes, slavs are trained to play it competitively.
George Sorin then those slav’s will be unleashed against the general public.. untouchable.. unkillable..
@@borisclark2897 Yeah, we all gonna nuke everyone with explosive squats and vast knowledge of, how to competitively play Heroes of Might and Magick 3.
Нет блять, САМАЯ НАХУЙ
To answer your question about the Strength of the Sword Ultimate DLC. I was a kickstarter backer and I have those skins because the devs sent me the codes to redeem them so I never even realized they were priced in the first place until this video.
I'm not exactly sure about the logistics for why they implemented it like that, but it was developed by 2 dudes who know nothing about game publishing, they just wanted to make a cool game. Which they did! And then they split up as a result of the mess this game's development became after the kickstarter because they didn't use the money they raised to hire someone to manage the business end of things. It's kind of a shame because this game was basically done like 4 years ago, it just needed more content and someone who actually understood how to ship a game (it doesn't even have a physical version).
They put it like that because they didnt wanted other people getting it, they just wanted the kickstarters to have it, or that is what other comments say, which is actually "fits" what you said, so i guess this "puzzle" is now solved.
I mean, most games don't have a physical edition nowadays. Just triple-a stuff from what I usually see
@@bookofpayne Oh I didn't mean it in the sense that I was expecting it to ever have one. I was moreso referring to how the lack of a physical release should have made the process of launching their game significantly less difficult from a logistics standpoint. Hosting a game digitally has so many avenues at this point, all you'd have to do is ask the platforms and they'd likely be more than happy to steer you in the right direction.
GoG, Humble Bundle, itch.io, etc etc etc, there's so many other paths they could've taken to get this game launched, but because asking for help was apparently impossible, they let the situation spin so far out of control without telling anybody what was happening it was already far too late for us to help when everything came crashing down and their partnership dissolved.
"He's gonna come alive and kick my ass isn't he..?"
That's a Dark Souls line for you.
Love this series! 😁
12:15 Lord Undead doesn't spin the scythe, he becomes the scythe.
If there is going to be a part 3, I would love to see "Unworthy" included in that.
A hidden gem that deserves a lot more attention.
on my wishlist for some reason, nice to see it get a recommend. might have to move it up.
Once again solid music choices my dude.
I binged like almost all your videos lol
"I'm doing a puzzle on her chest right now."
Dude, that's your sister! No!
The puzzle thing sounds like my bf trying to figure out my bras and corsets
@@Zoe.m. friend zoned again what a sad life I have
@@Zoe.m. When you're trying to undo your girl's bra and haven't noticed it unhooks in the front.
I bought Dark Sasi when it was on discount a long time ago. 50 cents. The best spent money of my life, would buy again blyat
I'll definitely get that one if it's one sale again
Same. Think I got it for 79 cents.
Very great series! I love this shit! Keeps me sane! Keep making these please shits hilarious!
To be honest, i'm kinda glad i found your channel, now i'm inspired to create my very own "Soul's-Like." Type of game.
It'll obviously take some time tho, i'm not going to rush on doing it or something, but i may coment about the updates on it, and if i get to finish it someday or get a playable beta, i'll make sure to leave the link in this same comment. Wish me luck!
6:45 Most likely this is a meme game, the sounds are taken from the stream of the famous Russian streamer Glad Valakas
And the game name means "Dark suck it"
*turns into weird lizard thing* "I'm a dog now"
Some of those store descriptions are absolutely hilarious.
1:05 Pineapple accurately describing my experience at my first and only college party.
That Lucah game looks worth a buy for sure. Thanks for the series, looks like there's some real gems among the crud.
6:17 Slightly better jumping than the original game
*Bed of Chaos flashbacks*
This was a great video man.
Found Lucah because of you one of my favorite games thanks
Lucah: Born of a Dream seemed very reminiscent of Hyper Light Drifter, which if you haven't played yet, i can't recommend enough.
yo dude thx for the comment, the artwork of Hyper light is pure eyegasm for me ; very retrowave hotline miami. Cheers, gonna get it.
HLD is worth buying for the soundtrack alone.
