    Hey, dude. I really like the idea of a CZcams channel that checks up on the progress developers have made on their games. Obviously with early access games and the practice of games as service, this type of content is needed, and I've only really seen that here.

    Great video. You summarized essentially every point of concern and appraisal I have for the game. Being able to upgrade your character in addition to being jacked from mutations increases the pace of endgame gameplay compared to the start, where supplies are more scarce, enemies are more threatening, and picking your fights matters more. I can also relate to suffering from randomized environments, such as hellfires inside HERC labs preventing me from accessing antivirals.

    i think there is a reason why you cannot bring extra fuel and there are also 2 cans on top. Buzzard and his repo team comes after you die to collect your car and any supplies and would need extra fuel to return back to their base. the supply bags would take up the front, back and trunk space due to how fricking big the bags are and the colony really needs them in the lore.

  • @Ranemoraken
    @Ranemoraken Před rokem

    I've been wanting a series that specializes in this type of review - where you compare an initial release to the current state. This is especially true for games that get a deservedly bad rep on release, and then improve with patches (for instance, I remember looking for videos on Ghost Recon Breakpoint, trying to figure out if after a year if it was worth playing. I never did find anything.)
    I'd like to see a section of your video that details the changes specifically, but I can see how that would be tricky, since it would require either a lot of research, or you actively playing games day one and then revisiting them for your content.

    • @StandardGaming
      @StandardGaming Před rokem

      I'm so glad you like the concept! It's definitely got some complications, but I currently have my eye on about 7 different games-in-progress and old footage for 4 of them.
      Also ideas for non status-reports that I reaally hope the algorithm doesn't kill when they come out.
      Aftermath hasn't visually changed TOO drastically, which is part of why I made the intro more about the similarities maintained in the evolution from flash game days-
      but the inventory/encumbrance stuff is taken from footage from around launch!

    I like that you have a way to "upgrade" and make the next run easier with gear and buy upgrades, i've tried roguelite games where it's more like a "full reset, now try to get further", I don't like them, I like it when there's SOME way to upgrade your "profile" for the next run.

    "Less precise more generic elements"? I'm sorry man, but that police car obviously crashed against the house. 😜 LOL
    I'm playing this game for the 'first time' (technically I started it before, but I bought it for PS4 and it was unplayable, so I waited for a patch). Now that it's playable I can say it's a great game; it's definitely remarkable how much they have achieved since the first game. Now I only wish they keep up with the patches (specially on consoles) and keep adding stuff.

  • @suedepup
    @suedepup Před rokem +1

    I bought the game on day 1. The game states it’s optimized for Xbox Series X. It certainly is not. Background textures don’t move smoothly and the horizontal image is stretched. I was shocked the game released in that state. The dev states the console versions were outsourced to a third party and it shows. I didn’t panic though because the dev was getting the game back in-house to work on himself, but had issues getting dev kits. Now he disappeared. I feel swindled. I hope he’s secluded somewhere fixing the game. But the lack of communication worries me.

    Is the frame rate really as bad as this video makes it seem? I can deal with sub-par graphics, but not stuttering or low frame rates... Is it just choppy/stuttering animations maybe? Either way it's no Bueno.
    If I wanted low frame rates I'd buy a console.

    • @StandardGaming
      @StandardGaming Před rokem

      There were some performance issues that I don't think I can blame on my PC/recording software- though substantially fewer as they've rolled out patches. This is definitely "flawed but ambitious labor of love" territory.
      I'm definitely keeping an eye on the dev's next move as far as optimization on PC- as well as on Console, which hasn't gotten the newer updates yet.
