I will try to create high-quality video essays about video games.
The Game That Everyone Should Experience At Least Once
What is the one game that everyone should experience at least once? After much thought (and changing my mind a dozen times), I think I’ve found the answer-or at least, my answer.
This video is for gamers, whether you play occasionally, dive deep into the hobby, or just have a passing interest in video games. It’s not about finding a game for everyone, but rather a game that I believe every gaming enthusiast should try.
Keep in mind, I’m no expert-I’m just sharing my own experiences and subjective thoughts. You might not agree, and that’s totally okay. Let’s dive in, and I’ll explain my choice!

Why I Hate Racing but Love Driving in Games
Переглядів 11 тис.28 днів тому
When you think of driving games, racing probably comes to mind-Need for Speed, Forza, or Formula 1. But not for me. I don’t play driving games to race; I play them for the thrill of destruction. From the satisfying car deformations in Flatout to the meticulously crafted vehicle physics of GTA 4, I’m more interested in how a car breaks apart and how it handles than crossing any finish line. In t...
10 Most Underrated Video Games

There are a lot of videogames. And we have limited time. So we choose the play only the well known games. Therefore, some games can be overlooked. This is why I wanted to make this list and talk about these games. So, let's jump in and explore why these games deserve more attention. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 0:25 - Dead Island 2 2:20 - The Punisher 2005 4:46 - Bioshock 2 6:39 - Spec Ops: The Line ...
Amazing!
The two mentions I would add to this list are Bioshock and Baulder's Gate 3, both are etched as the greatest games I've ever played.
OOOHHH ELDEN RING!
Translated by Google: You don't like racing but you like driving, that sounds contradictory. It's one thing to have driving skills and another thing to have racing skills. Please note that: "Don't underestimate racing and driving games for their simplicity" "Driving is much more than just pressing the accelerator and turning the steering wheel" It's true that driving games can be challenging, but hey, the point is that you control the car yourself, not that Mario Kart-like drift mechanics do it for you.
7:27 That reminds me of when I went over to a friend's house as a kid to play some NASCAR game, just to only go in the opposite direction and crash into all of my opponents. Also, you should check out Wreckfest, it's pretty much the spiritual successor to the Flatout series as it's made by the same people. You may have heard of it's demo version from around 10 years ago called "Next Car Game".
in gta 5 cars feel like toys, it's just not the same anymore, gta made you feel the consequences of crashing at high speed, you had to learn how to drive fast and not crash, it was hard but rewarding, now in gta 5 cars feel like they are made of titanium.
Eyceeeee! My fav car game is Underground 2. Cause of the menu and the modification!
As much as I love Mafia 1's driving physics, Mafia 2 has the best combination of realism and fun.
You love destruction derby games
So basically you prefer driving and having fun more than racing - there is nothing wrong with that and i'd argue that most people are acutally like that. Hardcore racing simulators are dead in comparasion and believe me those are the only places where you can do some real virtual racing. And by that I mean that skill ceiling is incredibly high - because lets be honest, hardcore simulators are still games. I myself am someone who loves hardcore simulators and huge multiplayer races (50+ cars on track) and from what you said - dont even bother with them for the most part. If you really wanted something a bit less hardcore but with "proper" physics, rules, mechanisms like pit stops, weather, damage model and AI, I think the only one you can look at is Automobilista 2, because you can race trucks and gokarts and formulas in the same race, you can race trucks on gokart tracks and see the mayhem and most importantly you can host a multiplayer race with your friends AND(!) AI with a few clicks. But remember, its a simulator/sandbox so you have to find your purpose, as there is no meaningful (like career mode or challanges) singleplayer.
I loved the OG game DRIVER! It truly was a driving game and had great damage physics!
I will say I love racing games, but if they don't have realistic enough crash physics and car damage they get boring and the racing really has to carry the game. I love games that punish you for being bad at driving. I think testing the limits of the artificial worlds we play in is a way of making sure we aren't in one ourselves.
Wreckfest although it has racing as a gamemode and as most of the campaign the demolition derby and pure focus on multiplayer add so much character to the physics of deformation where it doesn't get demolished immediately or handle differently from bumps and full on crashes making as you put it "a good mix of cartoon and realism" just compared to gta 4 it's more cartoon but with a focus on the destruction rather than the driving like racing series
It me. I'm like this. I started playing driving games with Test Drive back in the mid 80's but it wasn't until I played Twisted Metal on the PS1 in the 90's that I started having fun playing driving games. I did think the first Gran Turismo was cool but that was only because it had Garbage on the soundtrack. My favorite driving game is GTA V, and that's because I love the map, and you can customize your vehicles. Plus I love the driving mechanics (I don't care if they're 'too arcadey'). I think it's because i have some happy memories of living in Cali during the early 2k's plus I'm disabled, and due to my epilepsy I've never been able to drive. Video games are my way of experiencing something most people able to drive might take for granted.
ONLY 145 SUBS???? am subbing on all 5 of my accounts
This script was written by Logan Sargeant
😂
When I was a kid, I only liked the crashing aspect of BeamNG drive. But now, once I realised how realistic the driving is, I have zero interest in crashing cars.
You should try Crashday.
Bro you should really see racedriver grid. It has an excellent vehicle damage like its a perfect mix between arcade and realistic and good arcade/simcade handling with a lot of licenced cars
Gta v is because of limitations on the 360 that’s why everything was dumped down and on the 360 there’s actually gta Iv like deformation they removed it on the ps4 and pc ports aka the next gen ones because of the first person perspective and the map was made bigger so they made the physics looser whereas gta iv was smaller so they could focus on more details
You did not heard about CrashDay 🫠
Thank you, I did not know about
Definetly GTA IV is one of best in what you are looking for and tbh in many many more GTA IV is just better than many other games, simply timeless.
i would choose beam ng but this is not game at some point this more physics engine but i hope rockstar can achieve level of this realism if they want to so my choose is beam ng cuz its like mile stone for realism in driving games but yeah gta 4 is have that balance but in gta v we still can destroy cars in amazing way i see videos where guys make a still driving cars looks like a destroyed can😅😅
I'm like you!! I love car games that let me crash to hell and back. I grew up on Burnout Paradise and for years I played racing games for the sake of crashing. My dad then introduced me to Sim-Cade racing which made me fall in love with racing itself, so now I move in both circles: The racing games with pristine cars and little crashing physics, and the crashing with metal, screws, and car parts being flung everywhere in a beautiful artistic display of carnage.
Carmageddon 2 with mods,.. Thats how I got my fix decades ago,..
bro is underrated asf
Lol Poor DS2, I couldn't force myself to continue playing that game. It still sparks my interest tho
Assettocorsa??? Hello
King of the road vibes in the song
I enjoy both racing game and driving in other games. Damage as a mechanic is good because if you genuinely screw up, you're punished for that, forcing you to become a better driver. I'd also include early Wreckfest because it used to have part degradation. I loved that aspect before they took it out, because it gave me a reason to upgrade. When parts don't wear it, what real reason is there when you can just buy the next car up the list?
nah bro, you LIKE cars 😂😂😂
race driver grid, all you need is 4 wheels... and you will be able to limp over the line in liscened cars
GTA 4 definitely didn't have realistic handling, unless we were assuming everyone in Liberty has bald tyres. For me, BeamNG handling is like THE thing.
DiRT Rally 2.0 would change bro's mind
please check out the 'Crash Time' series, it has one of the best deformation and arcade driving physics. Crash Time 4 (open world) and 5 (not open world) being the best in the series.
Demolition Racer is the pioneer of this genre. I recommend you play this game.
I'll check it out thank you.
Keep the videos coming 👏🏾
I genuinely believe that GTA V went to a much more arcadey model because of kids. Regardless of perspective of whether children should be playing the game, I would wager that middle schoolers and high schoolers made up a major portion of the games demographic upon its release (and likely still the case well into its life). Not to say there aren't older players who didn't like the somewhat more sim-y physics of GTA IV, but I'm still for the time being think its just down to more arcadey physics being more accessible. Unfortunately I still haven't managed to finish the story of GTA V, and now you have me wondering if the less than satisfying driving model is the culprit for why I keep seeming to lose interest in the game, despite enjoying the PS2 era games and GTA IV all the way through and still playing them for years after beating them.
Not mentioning Wreckfest in this video considering the main theme of the video that u talk about is quite a huge missised opportunity.
I'll check it out
@@Lemmysterr It is from same devs that did flatout 1 & 2 but more enhanced / up to date since that game came to full release in 2018
I really agree with your video. GTA IV felt amazing to me, and I've played it a lot! But when I tried GTA V, the driving was so boring that I lost the interest. I also agree to what you said about the other games!
I won't lie, you do have a very weird take on racing games or games with cars as a whole. And yes, this is coming from someone who gives brutal car deformation or good car combat in games all the praise (my favorite games are Burnout Paradise and NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 among others), but this key detail alone doesn't dictate how good or bad (or meh lol) a game is. I for one do care about the racing in racing games when it's not about the crashing, but more so about its outside factors: presentation/vibe, feel, driving. Games like GRID 2, DiRT 3, NFS Shift to name a few are what I consider to be crazy fun and exciting but because of how the game feels and presents itself. Others such as Forza Horizon 4 are still good fun but it doesn't have these things the aforementioned do, it lacks an extravagant style. I guess what I'm insinuating is that any racing game can be great fun regardless of the crashing stuff. What these games need to do to get on that level is feel crazy and fresh. Maybe this is a very weird take, too. Haha When it comes to games with cars (e.g. GTA series), I don't think it's a requirement to include extensive car deformation or crash physics, but it's a neat thing to have. It's just that many people don't care about such, hence why GTA V took a complete 180° and made the driving casual-friendly. People likely don't want to roam around in cars that feel slow, sluggish and weighty as it would waste more time to get from A to B, they just want to simply play the game (just my POV, don't quote me on that lol). I find both's driving models to be fine but I understand why others praise GTA IV for its model a lot more. And let's face it, crashing in V is really lame unless you jump from a steep ramp and hit your car in a sensitive angle or something. And regarding your comment on BeamNG: no, this is not a car **crash** simulator, it's a vehicle simulator. It simulates vehicles, so having near-perfect crash physics is more so a byproduct. Just felt like pointing that out. Alright this is everything I wanted to blabber about have a good day sir
By the way, if you're reading this: why not check out Crash Time one day? Maybe this'll keep you engaged. Got good crashing, too.
Thank you for your comment. Nice to hear peoples opinion on these topics. About Beamng Drive, I guess you're right. I'm only playing it to simulate crashes. But It's more than that.
@@KeknanXD I'll check it out
Carmageddon series
this doesnt make any sense to me but you do you ig, imo im the complete opposite, games like wreckfest are of no interest to me but i love need for speed and burnout games, burnout is the closest i get to car destruction though i dont mind playing beamng every once and a while, i just dont find it as fun
One game that I love because of them crash physics is Crash Time 3. The whole Crash Time series has very cheap games and very fun too. I really recommend anyone to play them.
No such thing as "realistic driving" even on simulator games.
That's why FlatOut, imo, is doing an excellent job at handling both aspects. It incentivises crashing into others while racing because of it's satisfying damage model and ragdolls. It also offers a core mechanic at the same time: getting nitrous for destroying everything in your way. Not to mention, the physics make the gameplay feel refreshing because you never know what can happen in your. You either eliminate the rest of your opponents, try and race clean, try and eliminate one specific driver in order to win or just drive normally and let the gameplay speak for itself. You may encounter some surprises along the way. Burnout does the same thing as well, but I had a much better time with FlatOut and I really hope that somehow, in someway, the license gets back to Bugbear (the original developer). I tried Trail Out...but it doesn't hit the same. While at first it seemed promising, the gameplay didn't feel as satisfying as any of the FlatOut games to me (besides FO3 and 4 of course). Good damage model, but the crashes felt...stiff. The same goes for the ragdolls. Also, the story was pretty obnoxious to me. FO managed to have a balance in ''storytelling'' (if you really wanna call it that) by having ''somewhat'' realistic depictions of drivers and make them iconic with their designs, car choice, descriptions, liveries and driving styles. We didn't need obnoxious cutscenes to show us the ''chaotic'' theme of the game because the gameplay was handling that role. Instead in Trail Out, we have these obnoxious characters in an obnoxious setting and everything started to feel like a parody to me. Well...this turned out to be a mini rant on Trail Out but that's beside the point. The main thing I'm trying to cover is...to whoever is reading this comment...play FlatOut, if you haven't already. Or replay it again! Great video! Hope to see more from you.
It's not the first time I’ve heard someone say they don’t like racing, so I don’t think that is too crazy. If anything, it seems that you might just like vehicular combat games. Car combat games aren’t necessarily ‘racing games’, since some only have arenas to fight in (like the deathmatches in FlatOut 2). You also have different styles of combat too, like the physical combat you see in Burnout and FlatOut. But also, games like Gas Guzzlers Extreme and Full Auto 2 Battlelines have weaponized combat, with things like machine guns and rockets strapped onto your vehicles. Even the racing in those games takes a bit of a back seat since a lot of the gameplay revolves around trying to survive and deal damage to opponents. And of course, car combat games _usually_ have good damage models as well. I’d say to look into the genre of vehicular combat more. You might find a lot of games you like there.
i think you'll like Crash Time
Thank you, I haven't heard about that game.
This video has inspired me to make my own video on why I play driving games, since its another niche reason like yourself
This is like some villain monologuing his shit
