May the force be with you. Live long and prosper. I'll be back.
I've played and loved dishonored but never saw the trailer. It's accurate and makes me want to play again 😭
Hahahah you're welcome.
What i love about the Dishonored trailers. They are cinematic.
But the game play is exactly as the trailer shows it.
Playing the game feels like the trailer.
It is just as fluid, and you can actually be a lot more creative with the powers.
"Are these the good guys?"
Well, yes, but actually, no
Hahaha I've heard.
Yeah.... "good" is relitive in Dungons and Dragons.
the history behind these two factions and.... "complicated" and the hatred between them is very obvious to say the very least....as is the very gray worlds/universes of D&D.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Classic case of "Any enemy of my enemy may still be my enemy".
depends...
Oh hey, a video where I actually am an expert for once!
The Baldur's Gate series is based on the tabletop roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons; these two are from the latest game, Baldur's Gate III, which is not out yet (thus, no more follow-up videos for you).
The purple tentacle creatures are called Mindflayers. They are an alien species with strong psionic powers, and they do not reproduce normally. Instead, they insert a tadpole into a humanoid host's brain through the eyes. The tadpole attaches to the brain and influences the person subtley - until a few weeks later, the process of ceromorphosis properly sets in, and the host turns into a mindflayer. That last step is what you saw in the first video; and though you did not see it, in the last few seconds, you can see thousands of mindflayers and a nautiloid ship in the sky.
In the second video, we see a Nautiloid ship - capable of flying through space and teleporting between dimensions - with a greatly diminished crew; in fact, only one mindflayer is left. He does however have captives - a female gith, and you, the game's protagonist. And he injects both of you with a tadpole to turn you into replacement crew.
Next, he abducts some humans from a city - presumably for the same reason. But suddenly, three gith on red dragons arrive and attack the ship!
(Sidenote: There are two gith societies, the Githyanki and the Githzerai. The ones shown here, the Githyanki, are actually classified as evil as well - but, the enemy of my enemy and all that. The Gith were slaves of the mindflayers in the distant past (like many races in D&D) but broke free, and hunt mindflayers to this day. The only thing a Githzerai hates more than a Githyanki, and the other way around, is a mindflayer).
The Gith quickly damage the ship, and the mindflayer is forced to teleport away - but the gith follow. Just before the dragon can destroy the tadpoles and the infected humanoids, the ship teleports again - but I don't think it has another jump in it. This is where the game starts: You and your compatriots are stranded somewhere, and infected with a mindflayer tadpole. Where does it go from there? Well, we'll have to play the game!
Thanks, i never heard of Baldur's Gate and was just as confused as Hanna xD
Exceptionally well explained. I was about to launch into the same explanation. So glad I checked the comments first. The only confusing thing I can add is that the Illithid (mindflayers) are also time travelers (as a race) and have a very racial superiority thing going. Granted, from the time they are from, it was truth ( As GITH were once humans they enslaved). It is very Whovian in its outlook on time. And, yes, for the world's largest RPG for 45 years, this is all considered canon.
Also, in mind flayer society a tadpole growing naturally is one of the biggest taboo of their race.
@@maty3950 First 2 original games are still one of the best rpg games around. Do recommend playing them if you like playing rpg game with good story.
Depending on how the gameplay is this gamestudio should send you a check because sir, you sold me.
Also, Dishonored, and Dishonored II are criminally underrated games set in a sort-of “diesel punk” setting.
In D2, you can chose to play either as Korvo, from the first game, or his daughter, Emily. That level they showed for D2 trailer is the Clockwork Mansion and is, in my opinion a work of genius in level design.
They looked really cool.
After seeing you react to The Last Of Us trailer, and opening cinematic, you should see the TLOU2 trailers!
Its rare that the gameplay is even cooler than the trailer but thats the case with Dishonored, though I may be a little biased
@@Lethalogica Dishonored does Assassins Creed better than Assassins Creed.
Dishonored - Bioshock - Half Life are my top three favorite games.
@@grichard1585 First ass creeds were good, gone down hill.
Let me translate that little teeth-worm's noises for you
"Hello mad'am, have you heard about our lord and savior? C'thulu?"
🤣🤣🤣 gross
I knew you would like Emily, remember the dead empress they mention in first dishonored trailer? Soo she was in love with her bodyguard (the dude from the trailer) and they had a child ... the girl from second dishonored trailer ... Emily
Both games had cool story full of betrayals, backstabs, revelations, twists and coups since Emily is heir to the throne
Yup. Emily is cool.
So, as one who adores the Dishonored games, here's a tl;dr on the story.
Corvo Attano (Main character) was the royal protector of his empress. She is assassinated, and the powers that be frame him for the murder. So he goes for revenge (either lethal or non-lethal) in order to clear his name and save the Empress' daughter. A mystical being called the Outsider takes an interest in Corvo and give him his mark, granting him mysic powers. Steampunk-esque shenanigans with some magic ensue.
For the second game, you either pick Corvo or Emily Caldwin (aforementioned daughter of deceased empress who assumes the throne) and one or the other is in turn, as the name suggests, dishonored and cast out of their home and once again go on a journey to clear their name, depose the usurper, and save whichever one you didn't pick to begin with. It's not exactly unique in terms of the formula, but it's still a fun ride
Oh okay! Cool. Thank you.
Emily Caldwin is the daughter of the empress that Corvo was blamed for murdering. She is also Corvo's daughter.
The people who made Dishonored recently put up job listings for an unannounced title and I hope it's Dishonored 3, I loved the stories, music and gameplay of the series too much especially with how the story unfolds based on your actions.
Definitely recommend playing dishonored and especially dishonored 2, the latter being my game of the last decade. If you're not used to a lot of reflex based games there's a learning curve for sure, but the worldbuilding and Arkane's trust in their audience and players is genuinely moving to me.
You should definitely react to the Team Fortress 2 cinematics. The Meet the Team (which is a playlist of videos of the different characters), Expiration Date and Jungle Inferno.
Thanks!
The Dishonored franchise is one of the best pair of games EVER
Funfact as to dishonored. The game generally tells about a well-trained assassin (the second part, either about him or a daughter trained by him). But the whole game can be completed without killing anyone, including the main targets, or "zombies". And this is actually the preferred way of completing the game because mechanically it is very good, but at the same time too easy with bloody playthrough.
Ahhh cool!!! I like that!
Dishonored is my favorite franchise because of the sheer amount of possibilities. Those games are amazing both in lore and in gameplay.
This is the old version of the BG3 cinematic, the longer one has an additional minute where the ship ends up in Avernus (i.e. Hell)
Link?
This one must be my favourite non-gamer watches so far, I actually burst out laughing a number of times starting around 1:37 but mostly on 3:42.
3:16 - definitely Rosalía's nails.
hahaha yes these were good. Is there one for what happens next?!?!?!?!?!? I want to know!
@@HannaHsOverInvested I don't think there is (I assume you're talking about Baldur's Gate). The game isn't even out yet.
And I doubt there will be any type of a continuation trailer (very few companies actually do longer storylines like Blizzard do).
@@HannaHsOverInvested There actually is a newer version of the cinematic in which you can see that the ship teleports into hell.... your first mission is basically escape hell, good luck!
@@pawelzietek 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@HannaHsOverInvested sad trombone sound
The man in the first video transforms into (or is taken over by) a Mindflayer. He's a member of the Flaming Fist, a guard for the city of Baldurs Gate. What happened in that first video is the end of the transformation. The beginning of the horrifying calamity is when the tadpole is inserted into the eye socket in the second video.
As much as the Flaming Fist have annoyed me in the first Baldur's Gate game, I've always felt genuinely saddened and horrified by what happens to the poor guy.
So creepy.
In answer to "is this the same dude or a new dude?" It's his daughter
Ohhhhokay!
"Are these the good guys?" Ummm.... no. They're another group of bad guys that hate the squid-like bad guys more than they hate other people. The people of the city are really lucky, actually, as neither the dragon-guys or the squid-guys care too much about collateral damage, and most places caught between them end up as some variation of a smoking crater. It could have been a LOT worse. The squid-guys show up, and the citizens are like, "This is bad." The dragon guys show up and they're like, "Great, well now we're ALL dead." Both groups peace out and the citizens are like, "Half the city's wrecked, a crap-ton of people are dead or missing, but some of us are alive and some buildings are still standing? That's a pleasant surprise!"
"They're another group of bad guys that hate the squid-like bad guys more than they hate other people." Meh, close enough for me.
"Don't eat while watching"? Truer words were never spoken. Mind Flayers to not mess around!
Damn future past people. Always putting things in people's heads
@@ladychrya9379 yeah... They gotta stop doing that. Invading everyone's personal space..!
seriously.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Seriously..! In D&D, if you see Mindflayers things are about to get bad... and gross!
And so let's start - Baldur's Gate is a city in the world called the Forgotten realms, This dimension is part of the multi-world of the Dungeons and dragons universe, which also includes Magic the gethering . This is a cult series of tabletop role-playing games known all over the world, it influenced the development of the now popular geek culture in the early 70s ! It was created in the same years as Warhammer ( which I so often repeat). If you played role-playing games , like the Witcher, then say thank you to Dungeons and Dragons, without them we would not have this genre, and without the universe of the Forgotten realms, we would not have a popular fantasy culture like almost all fantasy literature of the 20th and 21st centuries !
Game narratives are hard to get into without playing them, as they are basically an interactive story. But a trailer is suppose to make you want to play them, and from seeing the Baldur's Gate 3 trailer, I think it did it's job. =) (Not because I think you will play it, but as you said yourself, "What comes next" )
Yes. Exactly.
Dishonored was one of my favorite games of the last generation. Although it didn’t gain as much traction since stealth based games can be a hard sell. You can do combat, but the chaos system in the game kinda punishes that later on. That’s another story though.
it doesn't really punish you, it gives you more opponents to go to town on, more enemies to fight, clearly if you're going the combat route that is something you enjoy and the game in fact subconsciously rewards you for it with more of the thing you like, it does make the game a little harder, but it's still a ton of fun and you can get really creative with combat.
Daredhnu I’m talking story wise. Dark acts get you a dark end
Oh man, I remember the joyous freakout when the Dishonored 2 trailer dropped and it was our baby Emily all grown up 😂
🤣🤣🤣 our baby. Love it.
Dishonored was so gripping :D And it lets the player decide wether to kill or use non-lethal methods. Also, many great speedruns and fun videos about attack combinations. Part 2 lets you pick your protagonist: Corvo from the first game or Emily, the daughter he saved in the previous game.
Can recommend Dishonored 1 and 2, esp. for casual gamers. Imo they both aged really well!
Oh hey, those squid-faced tentacle things are pretty common in my D&D campaign
And yes, they're even scarier when you read into their lore.
The FFXIV cinematic trailers are fun to watch, there's 4 of them that follow the same character's growth over the expansions. Flames of Truth, Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers.
Thanks!
@@HannaHsOverInvested Ah, I realize you'll end up missing some context if you do watch them. Going into the only thing you need to know is the game was a failure at launch, so they decided to relaunch it after spending two years fixing it while also updating the original version of the game. During this time one of the moons started getting bigger and bigger in the sky, and on the day the servers shut down the last thing we saw was the trailer for the new version of the game.
Even though it seems like the easiest option is to just kill everyone in your path, there is a plague happening and the more bodies you leave behind the worse the plague gets. So for the best possible outcome you can only kill a select few enemies and others you have to spare or avoid entirely while figuring out other methods to get around the lesser enemies.
Dishonored is basically whalepunk Count of Monte Cristo.
Oh cool! I love that story.
omg dishonored is one of my absolute favourites!! i platinumed the game, and got imo 3 of the hardest trophies in one play through. which speaks to the great design of the game. you are able to really play this one however you want. approach each mission in multiple ways and really make the playstyle yours.
Everyone else has probably commented this already, but there *is* a longer version of the second Baldur's Gate cinematic you watched with an additional ~50 seconds of content at the end. It doesn't resolve anything- in fact, it adds more unresolved problems presumably to be solved in the game. But hey, it is well cool:
czcams.com/video/wWHEw36gTwU/video.html
Yes someone did send it to me. Thank you!!
As others have mentioned there is a newer version of the second Baldur's Gate cinematic that you watched with an additional minute at the end. It probably will not enough to make a new video on, but it's there for your own enjoyment. Also, the game just recently released into early access, which is a very unfinished early version of the game. It's expected to fully release probably at the end of next year. I will say even though you are a self-described "non-gamer," if you liked the trailer this is a very easy game to get into. It's not very mechanically demanding to play, as it's a lot more about strategy. I think the game will have a very interesting story from what I've seen so far and a lot of freedom to explore how you want.
Came for Dishonoured 😂 played BG3 for 400hrs got bored, but Dishonoured is something I can always go back to ❤ those games.
And the next one falsely accused for assassinating his beloved empress he becomes an assassin to go after a conspiracy
Oh okay!!
No joke, you're one of the better reaction streamers I've seen. Doesn't seem fake at all and pretty funny reactions. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I'm always real 🤣🤣 some people learned that the hard way when I didn't like assassin's Creed at all! I got a bit of hate for that one.
@@HannaHsOverInvested this was the first video of yours I watched but I loved how genuine you were. Keep doing you!
8 months later: "Well, I wonder if I should build my Spell Sequencer with triple Skull Trap or Greater Malison plus Confusion plus Emotion Hopelessness, hmmmm....."
Baldurs Gate 3,the game that's going to rob me of hundreds of hours.
Fun Fact:Baldurs Gate is based on the popular tabletop roleplaying game,Dungeons&Dragons and it is taking place in the Forgotten Realms,propably the most known campaign setting for the tabletop game.The first 2 game is very old so the mechanics and the rules aren't that good,but this new upcoming one will be based on the newest 5th edition.
Honestly I'm scared about the story. Larian Studios was always weak in that department and I hope the gameplay isn't going to be to close to Divinity but we'll see. Fingers crossed it'll live up to the hype.
@@dagonofthedepths If you have some time check out this early preview of the game: czcams.com/video/bS7PsSuwY3I/video.html
it uses all basic dnd mechanic like stats, dice checks etc...It's def. going to feel a little like Divinity but I think the fact that we'LL be playing in a DnD realm with DnD rules is going to make up for it.The story is the only question really.
@@IronShaq Yeah I saw it but what was worrying me was a lot of gameplay seemed like to was about environmental manipulation. dropping guys off of cliffs, setting people on fire by throwing them into oil and then fireball ect. which was a very Divinity thing to do. Really nothing is wrong with that, but I feel that if it's too focused on that stuff. Plus the movement is a little crazy to compensate for the verticality. Like running up a roof in 1 movement phase is a bit much. But really it's all forgivable if the game is fun. Really the biggest thing for me is the story and the characters as that's why I play these games and honestly Divinity 2 was mediocre in my opinion and 1 was, well, honestly one of the worst CRPG stories I ever went through.
But don't get me wrong I hope it's good I just have concerns
That whole thing about dragons being able to “warp” is from Anne McCaffrey’s Dragonriders Of Pern series!
I did not know this...
HannaH's Over Invested There are two main intertwined trilogies, The Dragonriders, and The Harper Hall of Pern. And later, a whole bunch of spin-off’s and prequels.
She called it something else, but the dragons basically warp back and forth around Pern, and share a telepathic bond with their human riders.
Without getting too spoilery, the first book, Dragonflight *seemingly* starts off as a typical medieval type fantasy and morphs into something else entirely by the end of the trilogy. And! The protagonists are usually women.
But is that the dragons teleporting, or the Githyanki (riders) teleporting themselves and the dragons, via a Dimension Door spell or something similar?
@@TheRPGChick Gate, bestowed by the Lich Queen of the Githyanki, and empowered by the God Queen of evil Dragons,
Tiamat. It's almost exclusively meant to hunt Mindflayers, but the Githyanki uses it for a bit of slave seizure on the side, with a dessert of Githzuri harassment. Things that the young adult Red Dragons are all too happy to indulge.
The RPG Chick Good question. I haven’t played D&D for a long time, and never played any of the Baldur’s Gate series.
the dragon riders ? well...short answer : no. Long answer : HELL NO.
They are riding red drakes , which is one of the most evil creatures in dnd
Loving the t-shirt...good to see you've become an Appa fan...look forward to more reactions of that series and claiming my 10 points...Ok, see you..!
I MARATHONED that show when I got back to it. Can't wait for next season.
HannaH's Over Invested I’m overdue a rewatch at some point...probably try coincide it to run up to next season..! If you can squeeze it into your obviously busy schedule..check out Fresh Off The Boat.
I've heard that's good too!!
I know this video is older, but I've gotta suggest!! Watch Dishonored 1 launch trailer and Dishonored 2 launch trailer. They're the better trailers for the Dishonored games and you'll get more overall context from them in terms of story and gameplay.
I've been hoping that you'd naturally find your way to these trailers but it's been a while so lol...
If you'd like other Dishonored trailers I'd say Dishonored Trailer - E3 2012 by IGN and Dishonored 2 - Official E3 Gameplay Trailer by Gamestop. Those ones have great music:)
I love the Dishonored games and can’t wait to own BG3 ❤❤❤❤ 0:35
Even with my earlier comment I still like that majority of your content.
So Baldur's gate is based on D&D and those tentacle creatures are called Illithid or Mind Flayers. They basically reproduce by making those maggot things, said maggots go into the brains of people, eat their brains, and mutate the host body in another Illithid. Illithid are super disturbing psychics that eat brains. I'd love to teach you D&D sometime. It's fun and not disturbing at times at all!
At times 🤣🤣
Mindflayers and the Gith. The goblin/orcish like humanoids used to be enslaved by the mindflayers, now they hunt them down across the universe with their red dragons. They're not really "good guys" as red dragons are almost always evil. It's more of a "lesser of two evils" kinda dichotomy.
Oh... I see. So no good guys?
@@HannaHsOverInvested there's good guys but none of these characters are particularly good. The mindflayers are an emotionless hive mind. The Gith fought against them for their freedom but are more or less interdimensional pirates now. Two different flavors of evil!
If ya wanna know what happens after baldurs gate some people got to play early access check it out. Their still fixing glitches but so far it’s awesome.
The smirk on my face when she touches her eye before watching the video...
😕
Dishonored is soooo good! Just a great game all around. Baldurs gate was awesome back in the day, and what I’ve played of the new baldurs gate from Larian is amazing! Can’t wait for the full release.
"are these the good guys"
well... so here is the thing...
🤣🤣🤣
If the Dishonored videos interested you, I'd recommend checking out the "Tales from Dunwall" 3 shorts that help give into on like the Whale Oil they use to power the Steampunk Tech (Or Whalepunk as the creator describes it), the Rat Plague, and the origin of the iconic Mask.
Dishonored 1 and 2 are master pieces
Even the title 'Baldurs Gate' brings up so many childhood memories... ive had like 5 differrent copies of BG1 and 2 when i was a kid :P Some of them still lie around somwhere.
"Evil around every corner. Careful not to step in any."
I was playing the remaster a week ago off Steam. The quotes from the Imp in the celestial throne room make me giggle to this day.
@@christophermzdenek I bought remasters too but didn't have much time to play them again.
"There's not one thing that hasn't been disgusting so far."
Welcome to Larian Studios, enjoy your stay.
Hahahha thanks.
Baldur's Gate has a first part. One of the best games of all times... but a little outdated nowadays.
The gaming community is waiting for a second part for very long now. Baldur's Gate is COMPLEX.
Dishonored 1 is about Corvo, the lover of the Queen, sentenced to die for killing his love.
He breaks free and saves his and the Queens daughter - as brutally, or as humane, as the player wants.
In Dishonored 2 the player can play Corvo, revenging his daughters kidnapping, or one can play as Emelie the Queen,
her throne stolen, her father killed and the memory of her mother soiled.
A lot of freedom to behave very differtently in every new play-through.
let me just say as a gamer who both know and love those games, your reaction were hilarious and fun to watch ... not to mention it was a gentle and kind experience for me :o)
It's refreshing to see so many non gamers nowadays see our hobby with a more gentle, empathic way.
And welcome to the land of gross! Often common in fantasy, science fiction or other related style genres not just video games ;) ... though, to be fair, those weren't exactly the less gross you could have picked!
Anyways, enjoy your life ! ;)
3:40 reminds me of watching Wrath of Khan as a kid and being terrified.
Terrified is right.
My new favorite show is what that shirts about I think, "Kim's Convenience".Also, I wanted to ask "does the dodging help?" in my best Galaxy Questy voice when you dodged when Emily dodged. :)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 did I? Whoops.
So, that second clip for Baldurs Gate 3 ends precisely where the game begins. “What happens” from that point on is under your control as the player character.
Wow, those trailers were so good. Love your reactions.
Hannah, here is a recommendation of a really good trailer: Apex Legends Official Launch Trailer
If you will like it, you can react to all of them: season 1 - 6 trailers and a few short movies. You can find all of the trailers on their official channel, name: Apex Legends
Their channel: czcams.com/users/playapexvideos
Thank you! I watched one apex legend and it was cool. I'll get back to it for sure.
@@HannaHsOverInvested True, I forgot, you watched the season 4 trailer. There is some kind of chronology like in WoW, so it is better to watch them in the order starting from 1st to understand the characters and "storyline" better.
To your query on the 2nd BG3 cinematic: those smaller creatures are how Mind Flayers/Illithids reproduce. As for the Githyanki on the (pact) Red Dragons; Githyanki are as evil as Illithids in their own way (as are Red Dragons), except when they get word of Illithids roaming somewhere. They'll stop at nothing to exterminate them (D&D lore on the Illithids & GithYanki & Githzerai is fascinating). The reason the Red Dragons are allowing the Githyanki to ride them is due to a pact the Githyanki made with Tiamat eons ago, which is another tale in itself.
The joke among D&Ders when they saw the 2nd cinematic is that it's probably the 1st & LAST time anyone in the Forgotten Realms has said "Thank the gods for the Red Dragons'.
Miracle Of Sound has done a fantastic song for Dishonored 2, it's called Clockworks. I'd heartily recommend looking into it and if you wanted to, you could even do some reactions to them!
I am really amazed at how people have never heard of Baldur's Gate series. It was literally the best rpg back in its day. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing you grossed out. The 23 ppl who disliked need proffesional help.
I mean... I haven't heard of any of these.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Yes but you havent played anything in general in the past so its expected.
@@alxhades6231 Well to be fair Baldur's Gate 2 came out 20 years ago. Though I do believe it has been remastered since then, but it really has not got main stream advertising in 20 years. So am not surprised there is a whole generation that does not know about these games.
Have you considered reacting to some of the more recent Magic: The Gathering trailers?
The ones for War of the Spark and Zendikar Rising are gorgeous works of art
I have a long list and I dont know if those ones are on it.
@@HannaHsOverInvested There are three fairly recent trailers for newer sets which are really good: War of the Spark (czcams.com/video/b5W9t62t10I/video.html), Theros: Beyond Death (czcams.com/video/OOzNb5Bqzwg/video.html) and Zendikar Rising (czcams.com/video/4RtsXnvVIk8/video.html)
You probably have a lot of things way higher on your list to look at, so I completely understand.
These could just be interesting to explore, given that these are trailers not for a video game but a physical (and now digital) card game.
Githyanki riding Red Dragons
"Are these the good guys?"
Yes, well actually no.
Looking for something to watch while eating.
Oh Hannah has jus uploaded a new NGW video, let me see that.
Hears warning. OKSEEYOU
Just kidding... Proceeds to watch and eating, knowing my biology degree has given me an immunity towards nasty stuff and appetite loss.
HAHAHAHAHAHAH that made me laugh out loud.
@@HannaHsOverInvested By the way I was right. I was happily gnawing away on a chicken leg, laughing at your squeamish outburst. Good times.
Got myself some food and watched it a second time.
@@coffeeholder You guys kill me hahahah
@@HannaHsOverInvested intentional XD
But for real the food was good.
Dishonored is on my top 3 of games.
It looks cool.
@@HannaHsOverInvested trust me, the trailer doesn't do the justice. It's so much more interesting and fun)))
Ah, I can only hope BG 3 can keep up with my rose tinted nostalgia for the first two. Reality checks on fond memories can be pretty harsh sometimes.
I wish I could pull off that hair do. Looks perfect to keep the headphones in place (mine always slip backwards when I lean back too far).
My hair? 🤣🤣 Thanks!
Baldurs gate is one of the best games of all time. And its beying made by larian studios. Amazing.
Btw, loved you lipstick girl! So cool.
Oh thank you!
"Is there another one I can watch for after"
Yeah actually! They made an extended trailer for the second one it's like a minute longer at the end, I wont spoil what it is tho.
Here is the link: czcams.com/video/wWHEw36gTwU/video.html
Yea! A clue people have posted this. Thank you!!
Illithide or as it is commonly called Mind Flayer is one really dangerous and scary creature in Dungeons & Dragons. I have always been temped to throw one into a game but not sure my group of players will be able to handel it.
There is one in Dragon Heist the players may end up fighting. They meet him near the beginning of the adventure, and near the end may get the chance to fight him.
"The preliminary Early Access release date is September 30, 2020 - and that's a date that Larian says it's “pretty sure” it can hit."
Can't wait.
Oh this is a new game? So there isn't another one I can watch? Boooo hahahaha
@@HannaHsOverInvested Yeah, the second video was basically what happens immediately before the game starts. The first person perspective is whatever character you choose to play who has to deal with being in a crashed ship who the hell knows where with that toothy tadpole rooting in your brain. Early game goals will be to get it out before you go through what the guy in the first video went through.
Oh, and the ones on the dragons weren't good guys. Just a different type of bad guys at war with the mindflayers, who are their former slavemasters.
@@HannaHsOverInvested It's actual Dungeons and Dragons in that they use the same rules.
You should check out czcams.com/video/CkYkO66NSOg/video.html. It's an actual DnD one-shot ran by Matt Mercer (He's the voice of McCree in Overwatch). DnD puts you in a world where your role play is only limited by the imaginations of you and the people you play with.
I cannot wait to play Balurs Gate 3!
It is gonna be so much fun
You should maybe play on eor two games, would be funny to watch
I love all your reactions, especially the World of Wardcraft ones! There's a really good show called Westworld that I really recommend to watch, so many twists and turns you don't see coming!
There is actually another video that was released for Baldur's Gate III it's the next part of this video, when the female Githyanki is in Avernus one of Plans of the Nine Hells.
Longer than a minute? I saw one that was like 50s longer than the one I watched.
@@HannaHsOverInvested That's the one.
Hey, just found this video, its always a good feeling when you see peopple enjoying for the first time stuff that you also like a lot
Glad you had fun watching!!
I really like this videos for the perspective they give, it's enlightening to see what a non gamer interprets from the trailers
It reminds me of a series of videos that other youtuber made about how a non gamer plays certain type of games for the first time. Just that in this videos the non gamer isn't suffering... well not as much... i- i hope, the trailers were quite disgusting tbh
Haha gross but fun!
Dishonored series of games are the best
WOuld really like to see her React to Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2 cinematics
Noted! Thanks!
OKSEEYOU makes perfect sense after watching the Baldur's Gate trailer. xD
🤣🤣 right!
Baldur's Gate would be a great game for a non gamer to get into, it's basically a choose your own adventure novel. Emily is the daughter of the protagonist of the first game, the lore and story of both games are phenomenal and worth studying for world building lessons in my opinion.
Oh that's cool about Emily. I like those!
@@HannaHsOverInvested It was pretty interesting how Emily was handled in the first game (she was a kid and played by Chloe Grace Moretz back then but not in the sequel). There's a surprisingly large amount of people who didn't realised Emily was the protagonist's daughter because the first game never explicitly tells you so. But if you pay attention you can find very obvious clues (Emily makes the classic drawing of her family and the dad is Corvo, you can read about rumours implying that the empress was sleeping with the royal protector which is Korvo and finally there's no mention of a father for Emily or a husband for the Empress anywhere in the game). The second game makes their lineage official but it was fun playing the first game, finding a drawing in her room and it suddenly clicking that he wasn't just trying to save her because she's the daughter of the person he was protecting but because she's his daughter as well.
You should play Baldurs gate3! You might like it.
Plus looks like we all might have to stay in doors more x.
P.s The evil monster is an illithid (or mind flayer). You should look it up but not before bedtime haha. A very nasty creature.
I'm not ready to give up my non gamer status
@@HannaHsOverInvested Turn to the dark side! Well def try and visit a friend first..find one who is gonna buy the new PS5. My niece who's 7 enjoys her games! (Even ignores her uncle to some extent).
In one of your earlier videos you credited Chadwick Boseman for kinda inventing Black Panther, he did a great job and was the only one that could do it even when he was sick from the first movie till his death, but Black Panther appeared in Fantastic Four comic in 1966. Guest appearances in comics are a way to see what interest there is for a character. Plus a black marvel character that got multiple movies is Blade, who's is a "younger" character. Also just to add Star Trek: Discovery isn't the first female captain, that was as fare as I know in Star Trek: Voyager. The original Zulu, George Takei, was the first character were they hinted that he was gay. He didn't have any love interests, George asked Gene if Zulu shouldn't be openly gay, Gene didn't think it was time for that(in the 1960's). Plus that had a black female main character. All I'm saying is that it's easy to get offended and see monsters if you keep looking for them. No one is perfect.
I did no such thing. I haven't re watched the video but I'm pretty sure I said he made space. He starred in the first big budget all black movie that EXTREMELY well at the box office. This created space.
Yes, other actors created space from him, of course. Blade and Ahora being to of those characters. We stand on the shoulders of giants. But the MCU Black Panther did a lot for us.
It was fun to watch your emotions during watching Baldurs Gate 3 intro :) I would love to see your reaction to my favourite Kurzgesagt In a Nutshell video: "How to Build a Dyson Sphere - The Ultimate Megastructure
".
And here is the link to this video: czcams.com/video/pP44EPBMb8A/video.html
Dishonored was an amazing game and the two DLCs for it were equally as memorable. I kinda hated 2 but it had lots of cool concepts, just really doesn't live up to the original.
EDIT: Oh also, the developers of those games, Arkane Studios I believe, are making another game called Death Loop and the trailers for it are pretty cool in case you need some more stuff to check out!
So the man who gives Corvo the mark is known as the "Outsider"; he's sort of a god question mark entity that if you peek his interest he'll give you his mark whether your good bad in between doesn't matter no one is really sure 100 why he does it he just does it.
Me senti alagado nadie me ayudado asi antes gracias
I'd like to see her watch Bioshock stuff!
There's an extended version of the Baldur's Gate trailer if you want to see what happened. czcams.com/video/wWHEw36gTwU/video.html Enjoy.
2:00 Yeeeaah...
This is one of the scariest part of the Dungeons and Dragons lore; the illithids, more commonly knowed has the Mind-Flayers...
They are a species of Alien Chtuhlu-esque from the Far reaches of SPace, that doesn't "reproduce" like other living beings...
They put a Tadpole ( a baby Mind flayer) into someone eye or nose, the Tadpole then slowly eat the brains out, and replace it, taking control over the mind and the body of the Host, the Host is alive for the whole process, and in most cases isn't even axare that he is been replaced...
Since the Tadpole will copy the memories of the Host, until it reaches maturity and Finish the process called Cerembromorphosis, where the Host and the tadpole, becomes a full fledged Mind Flayer.
They are powerfull Psychics( they are one of the few races of D&D that doesn't use magic, but rather psychic powers), and they Eat Brains...
They are also a race of Dominant Slavers, taking other races in their service, but their Empire wich spanned large chunks of the Galaxy, was brought down by a Slave Rebellion, and now they are fragemented and hunted down,and there's also some time travelling fuckery involved.
4:50 this is called a Nautiloid ship, it is part Flying/Space ship, part living Giant Calamari creature.
They've become incrisingly rare since the fall of the illithid Empire, since the fleeing illithids don't have the resources and infrastructures anymore to build more of them.
These are Bonded through a Psychic and Telepathic link to the illithid that pilotes it.
5:45 Huuh, Good guys, yes and No, they are indeed the enemies of the illithids, they where the illithids favorites Slaves and Hosts, they are the Githyankis, they have latent Psyonic powers and are pretty good Martial combatants, wich was one of the reasons why the Illithids liked to use them as Hosts.
Giths are also kinda Pirates/Raiders, and rarely care for others than their own race, results of millenia's of Slavery can do that...
After the Rebellion and te fall of the Empire, the Githyanki Queen made a Pact with Tiamat, the Evil Dragon Queen, so that some of the Giths would become Dragon Ridders, and help them in the Hunt for Illithids.
They use the Power of the Red Dragons and their Planeshifting knowledges and powers( Planeshift is the ability to travel /open portals to other Dimensions/Planes, D&D is a game based on a Multiverse and multiple Planes of existance Structure) to Hunt donw Mind Flayers no matter where they are or flee.
Red Dragons are amongst the most aggresive and Foul of the Chromatic Dragons( Dragons are divided in Colors, Red, Green, Blue, Black and WHite, Chromatic Dragons are usually all narcistic and evil basterds, then you have the Metallic Dragons- Bronze, Silver, Gold, Copper and Platinium, who are usually Neutral or Good, and wich are always at odds with the Chromatic Dragons)
7:45 this was the "short" version of the Cinematic of the game, there since a week or two an extended version of it, where you see the final minute of the cinematic, wich till then was kept secret.
When there are no good guys I get a little confused hahaha
@@HannaHsOverInvested There are Good guys in D&D, but yeah in this instance, its more like "Good" guys depending on who is asking and on opinions.
Like i said the Giths are the Illithids sworn enemies, so if they kill an Illithid and by the same occasion "saves" people who where captured or threatened by them, they can be seen as the "Good" guys.
But Giths are also pirates and raiders most of the time, now it is not like a Monolithic point of view shared by all the Giths.
The Only thing that is universaly sahred by ALL Giths are their hatred for Illithids and their abominations.
For the rest the race as a whole is eclectic enough to have various mind sets and world views.
Can't wait fo Baldur's Gate release! X3 totally forgotten how gross part of those trailers were XD I'm glad you were warned though!
Hahahaha so gross
BaldUrs Gate was basically Highlander in a fantasy setting kind of plot. And it was over 20y ago-you ascend to godhood when you kill al other of your kind (there can be only one? Bhaalspawan lol) Don't get point for third game except $
Interesting
are those Buffy the vampire slayer comics in the background? I volunteer to fight away your fears when you have nightmares.
Yes they are and thank you.
“Are these the good guys?”
Lol no, but they’re less horrible than the parasitic mind flayer.
1:45 is that a mindflayer?
Yes! Horrid things.
creeeeepyyyyyyyyy
You should definitely see all the assassination of dishonored 2 !
You should definitely watch the trailer for Diablo’s 4, super cinematic and well done, forewarning there is some gore tho
She already watched it, friendo.
Yes I did! It was also hella nasty! 🤣😂🤣😂
i feel like dishonored 1's world and story settings don't seem too far fetched nowadays lol
"aaaaaaaargh, now what haaaaappeeeen !?!?"
*PLAY THE FUCKING GAME DAMN IT*
You know you are talking to a human right? Would you say that so someone in person?
@@HannaHsOverInvested Yes.
@@EbefrenRevo hmmm well I asked 2 questions but I'll assume your answer is for the second one. I don't imagine that goes over very well with people and it definitely doesn't go over well with me.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Yes.
should definitely react to dishonored 2!
I would definitely recommend looking into actual gameplay of the games. I've played the 2nd dishonored myself.
