Fallout 76 apologia

To be fair, he clearly reviewed it as an MMO shooter - which it is - and not as a proper Fallout game - which it isn't.

It was a dumpster fire when he reviewed it, Fallout or not.

I dont like gmanlives reviews because they are shallow, to sell your gig on youtube, you need to be an entertainer, I get that but there are ways to do it and still deliver interesting information, gmanlives tries to be way too much of an entertainer (I also bet he is way too much of a casual player to properly analyse the games he talks about, he says wrong shiet all the time, things that could be easily noticeable if he actually spent time playing those games) and his reviews lack any depth, civvie is much better, he does the whole entertainer schtick for his reviews to not be boring but deliver a ton of information about the game he is talking about.

A: He lost a lot of his niche by moving on to generic AAA garbage, which you can get from anyone. These days he reviews shit like The Last of Us 2 for fuck's sake. He hasn't completely abandoned mods/older games but I unsubbed because the ratio of nushit to obscure titles got too much.

I'd assume there's only so many older FPS games you can cover, and he seems more a fan of the genre in general. Not everyone hates everything modern and AAA. His Rage 2 review was spot on btw, that game's combat is excellent.

I'll try out whoever that is, but I'm not really looking for long documentaries here. 10 minutes of either quick nostalgia or brief rundown of a new game is pretty perfect IMO, and I'm mostly just wanting to be entertained over lunch.

Dude I've been saying the same shit on this forum for 10 years now. I'm here for the freedom of speech and PC RPG focus, not the boomer angst.

By autists for autists.

I picked a random spot in the video and hit play. He's rambling about whether or not the game's pop culture references are meant to be crossovers with whatever they're referencing.

Interesting analysis of Metal Gear Solid V. There seems have been a deeper story beneath it all, with deceptions after deceptions provided in the story. 2 videos are out so far, with the third video apparently connection all the dots.





Cool stuff so far, so much I have missed out on, and I have clocked around 300 hours in the game.

Edit:

For you that have played Metal Gear games, this analysis will put stuff into a perfect fit for how dystopian everything is in 4. There is only people playing other people off each other for maximum personal gains. No loyalty to any side, no honor, no regard for anyone or anything and you can see it has reached a world wide epidemic scale in 4. There is only the "economy" and maintaining the status quo. And it all starts here. Man, this series could actually be one of the most dystopian series I have ever have the pleasure of following, especially since you have a hand in its creation, through lies and deceptions.

Man, those games were complicated as fuck to understand. Still, my favorite series ever, but damn, I remember I played through the whole series numerous times and still don't understand a damn thing. Well, I choose not to play anything after MGS: IV. I heard they don't use Hayter's voice in V. That's just heresy.

Yeah man, and I get you, but you are really missing out though. I would love if Hayter would still be in it, but it is still a fantastic game. Gameplay is top-notch, and while the story might feel a bit underwhelming and disconnected, it makes a lot more sense after listening to his analysis.

Without giving the game away, there's actually an in-story reason for the recasting.

Without having played the game it sounds similar to how the reason Quiet wears revealing clothes is because she breaths through her skin instead of simply Kojima liking scantily clad young women :-P

Spoiler

except Sutherland voices real Snake in Ground Zeroes

 

[Silverfish]

Spoiler

Fair enough. I never messed with Ground Zeroes (paying for demos lol). So, I was wrong and Kojima just recast the part because he wanted someone competent who didn't sound like a Saturday morning cartoon.

5 hours of retelling a game story.

More like five hours of coming up with arguments against Witcher 2 and failing by the guy who didn't understand Silent Hill 2, the most in your face symbolism of a videogame of early 2000s.

 

[Jvegi]

Witcher 2 is a mess and 5 hours is not nearly enough to cover it.

Nah, there isn't. Hayter just isn't that great of a VA and his performance has significantly degraded overtime. Hayter has also said that Kojima was trying to replace him long before 5.

“I had to re-audition for Metal Gear 3 to play Naked Snake,” Hayter says. “They made me re-audition to play Old Snake, and the whole time, they were trying to find somebody else to do it. I heard that Kojima asked one of the producers on Metal Gear 3 to ask Kurt Russell if he would take over for that game. He didn’t want to do it.”

Also, they kept the Japanese VA. Kojima just has a hard on for Hollywood actors. He actually offered Joosten (Quiet) the role of Fragile but ghosted her after he managed to get Bond Girl Léa Seydoux.

 

[Alienman]

He is still iconic for Solid Snake, degrading performance or not. Real shame Kojima has a hard on for Hollywood celebs, it just would have felt more complete having the same voice actor for all Metal Gear games. Kiefer Sutherland was okay I think, but his voice has this sleepiness over it. Like he was barely awake when recording

 

[d1r]

This looks so good. I just checked out videos of the new versions of this game, and the boss battles look fantastic. Too bad about the new UI though, it's really bad. Definitely gonna give this game a try though.

TBH, all I hear is Solid Snake. I didn't know Hayter was having such a difficult time, though. The games weren't really about having top-of-the-line voice acting like Rockstar games did during the PS2 era. Always thought it was more of a chessy-Japanese thing.

Part 3 is out.
