If that option is there, I don't see it.

If I wanted to play with a controller, I'd buy a console.

@@Syrkit I play on pc and use a controller for certain games. Just because you're using a controller it doesn't ruin the experience. As you mentioned in your video some games just aren't made with mouse and keyboard in mind.

@@theunexplainablecrumbs4387 Using a controller absolutely ruins the experience. Controllers kinda suck. That's why games _should_ be made with mouse and keyboard in mind.

@@Syrkit Explain how using a controller ruins the experience

@@theunexplainablecrumbs4387 It ruins the experience by not being keyboard and mouse. Obviously.

You seem nice.

I don't like using controllers; it's like trying to play a game with one hand tied behind my back.

@@SyrkitYou can also use a keyboard if you have the right set up

@@squishiesbybrooke Or they could have built the game well. **pshrug** Who's to say?

@ They honestly did build the game very well. Sorry that you don’t enjoy it but personally i love the game and think it’s amazing.

I shouldn't have to struggle _at all._ Not with the interface itself. _You_ try doing this with a trackball and you'll see what I mean; doing quarter-circles is only one thing: awkward as hell.

Have you played "Inside"...? If you like this art style, you might like that, too.

@ I have not, but will check it out!!

"Simple" isn't the issue. The problem is that they're _awkward._

I don’t have experience with PC/Laptop controls with this game, but with controller the controls are no problem.

Fr

I understand what it was trying to do. I also understand that the controls to do it are really, _really_ awkward to use.

@@Syrkit the whole things a QuickTime Event how are the controls awkward? They couldn’t be clearer than literally displaying them on the screen when you need to press them.

@theosmith5987 See, again, you say "clear"...which has literally nothing to do with "easy to execute". The very first QTE where you can save the fish, demands a quarter-swirl from right-to-bottom... _you_ try doing that with a trackball. I dare you.

@@Syrkit I have no idea what a trackball is, but the inputs are designed to be difficult to mimic the complicated manoeuvres and split-second reactions you need in a real fight. As for picking up a fish, well… I guess that could be a little “slippery”. The game isn’t meant to be easy though, so maybe don’t make a video about how much you shouldn’t play it just because you can’t pick up a fish, maybe turn the difficulty down first.

She is completely wrong the game is truly amazing the controls aren’t even that bad and you can change keybinds

@@Epicmanyes i completely agree, one of the most incredible games with the best visuals and storytelling. and for people who play on pc, is it not just possible to connect a control. its much easier to play like that

It's a great game and I love its storylines, I personally think you'd be missing out by not trying it out yourself! At least via demo!

I remember Phantasy Star's existence; don't think I ever played it.

@@Syrkit : If you've never played it, you _really_ need to. If you do, get the original, NOT the remakes... Ages, Generations or whatever. Hint, the first character is a female. Alis. Her brother, Nero was killed trying to what Lassic was doing. She is on a quest to finish what he started.

@@boyceps Well, let me ask you this: is it one of those J-RPGs where combat is just each side of the conflict standing on the opposite sides of the screen and just whackin' on each other instead of any kind of actual tactical combat where you can maneuver? Cuz if it's that... kinda not interested.

@@Syrkit: Well, yeah, it kinna, is. I thought that I'd just mention it, thinking that you might enjoy it. I did.

@@TheLoneWanderersBunker you should definitely play, as others have said she’s completely wrong

@MFT-k3l She’s not completely wrong, it’s just an opinion. Gameplay wise, it’s a walking simulator with quicktime events. You have to like pure RPG to enjoy this game. You and me might like it but it’s definitely not for everyone

I recommend at least trying the demo of the game, it's has some really nice storylines!

@@TheLoneWanderersBunker Definitely 10/10 recommend!!! See for yourself and please try it out!!!

I used to work in a video store; I have movies in my head that many people have never even heard of.

If you'd asked me without the context of this game, I would have guessed that a musical genre called "cloudpunk" would be like airplanes-only dieselpunk music. So...lots of "Flight of the Valkyries" kinda stuff, but rock/metal/punk style.

Puh-LEASE. That interface is shit. Demanding you only craft with materials found in a specific spot during the tutorial is shit. The game isn't well-built. And your comment about "negativity" is pretty ironic, dumbass.

@Syrkit dawg, you're tryna gain viewer traction shitting on a 5+ year old game that's run it's cycle and is now a complete game in the beginning of its finale to its fanbase. This is your highest viewed video and it's all based off playing the game poorly(on purpose? Lol) and trashing the game cause you made a couple mistakes and don't want to be accountable on camera. Wouldn't plan on this YT thing being a long term career gig, boss.

@@Skar3Kr0w Who said I'm trying to gain viewer traction? I say over and over and over in my videos that I'm just doing this for funsies. Not everybody is trying to be Markiplier or jacksepticeye, yanno.

@@Syrkit 😌👍

I added that to my library about a week ago. :) Thanks!

Oohh, you can get "Fallout: London" for free? Here'z my wrist; twist it. ;)

@@Syrkit Yeah, it's a mod that was so big, Nexus couldn't host it, so GOG stepped up.

Mind the gap.

I found the limited choices and the complete lack of self-confidence in the main character extremely off-putting. That, coupled with the point-and-click-adventure-game puzzles just...irritating. Maybe the story gets good, but I think it would have been better as a movie or TV show, honestly. Even then, unless the main character grows a pair at some point--near the beginning!--I'd still not be interested.

@Syrkit oh, absolutely. I could see that in your frustration, and I'd forgotten how the game really was lol. People always remember the story, not the package, and that's not always a good thing!!

*Point 1:* Do you just go rushing in on your first playthrough of a game or do you try to first see how the game even works in the first place? *Point 2:* If a game _doesn't show you the ammo counter reading zero,_ that's a badly-designed game. And there was no reason to think I had dumped my ammo. *Point 3:* No, the explosives looked like grenades and I was trying to figure out how to equip them. The game wasn't very explicit about it. *Point 4:* At that point, I didn't care. The game had already shown itself to be quite poorly designed by then. *Point 5:* Other games don't annoy me like this one. If the tutorial wants me to do something in a specific way that's _so fucking stupid_ like this one, it's bad game. I wasn't "struggling"; the game is badly designed. How about understanding that _just because you like a game_ doesn't mean it's a _good_ game. And a game that uses the same key for "Take All" and "Leave All" is a bad, _bad_ game.

@@Syrkit Counter points. Point 1, personally i try to see how the game works rather than rushing in blind as to not make thing needlessly hard for me. Point 2, this is calling every mil-sim game, tactical shooter and mods that make games more realistic, bad, including Ready or Not, which is considered leagues above Generation Zero is most regards with only 'map scale' being a loss, which is worthless since they are 2 different genres. Pont 3, no grenade looks like that, there was no spoon, pin or even a tab (a thing connected to a string to yank to prime a grenade or anything else it's attached to, like artillery guns, with some firing by a string/rope pull). Point 4, you rushed into combat with a non-functioning gun expecting positive results without trying to figure why it stopped shooting or why everything in your hotwheel was grayed out, your own fault. It just portrays you as impatient and non-logical to a degree and you could've easily fixed not dying the 2nd time by just checking why you couldn't shoot by simply going into your inventory. Point 5, the tutorial doesn't make the game. If you quit and call it a 'horrible game' before you can even finish the tutorial, it's not the game design, it's your own lack of something, be it skill, thinking, logical deduction or otherwise if no glitches, bugs or code errors occur, which none did in this case. I will admit the game isn't the best, but it's still decent judging by steam reviews with 'all reviews' being mostly positive and 'recent reviews' being very positive This reminds of a critic reviewing Cuphead, he couldn't even pass the tutorial and called it a 'bad game', yet it's still recognizable today and when he gave it to his kind, who wasn't even a teen if i remember correctly, he beat the tutorial quick. There was an entire debate over whether or not the game was good by big youtubers, even MatPat from game theory was involved over whether or not the review of Cuphead was fair or not via online debate with someone who he knows. (Don't go harassing him over this, just trying to emphasize how big this was). Reviews should be done by people who play games in the same genre/class as the game they review, which is not you since you. All i want is for you to at least try the game again and post a fair review on it, criticizing a game for your failures as a player is not doing it or you any favors. I am honestly more qualified to give a review because I play games from the same genre as it and i don't rush it with non-functioning weapons, but it would realistically not be fair for me to do so since I have time in it and it would be considered as a partial review due to me already having experienced it.

@@Blacklight656 *Point 1:* Exactly. That's why I kept my distance from that first robot. *Point 2:* And if it were realistic, there would _still_ be some in-game representation of having gotten rid of all my ammo. The fact that the 'loot' key and the 'store everything' key is the same, coupled with the complete absence of an ammo counter makes it _unrealistic._ Cuz, in the real world, you might notice that you're suddenly not carrying any ammo. Doy. *Point 3:* Bullshit, "no grenade looks like that"; the Germans have grenades of a similar shape during WWII, often called a 'stick grenade' or a 'potato masher'. They're longer, but a very similar shape. *Point 4:* You're very quick to blame, but I rushed into combat _after flat-out stating that I hoped dying would clear whatever nonsense had grayed everything out._ And the fact that everything was grayed out would indicate _in literally every other game ever_ that what I was holding was unusable at the moment, not that I didn't have anything. _Every other game in existence_ would have taken it out of the equipment wheel or had a '0' atop it. That they were grayed out _was confusing_ because the game designers decided to color outside the lines. *Point 5:* I called it a horrible game because it's a horrible game. If _the tutorial_ was this much of a piece of shit, I can only _imagine_ what the rest of the game must be like. I _do_ play this game of game...the others are just _better made._ See, what you don't get is that I _didn't_ make a "player error"; the game has _an interface problem_ that made it impossible to figure out what had gone wrong. Between the idiotic controls for inventory management, the complete lack of an ammo counter, the grayed out equipment wheel, the game sent the wrong message to any _experienced_ gamer. Even if it wasn't one, it _looked_ like a bug or a glitch based on literally every other game of this sort, and even games that aren't. Sorry-not-sorry that you think this is the Best Game Ever™ and the only way to not like it is to be bad at it, but shit design is shit design, and this game his a shitty design paradigm. The devs made some _really stupid choices,_ and that's what makes it a bad game. _Deal with it._

@@Syrkit I did not say it was the best game ever, read what i said at the end, i recognized it isn't the best, and the M24s, the german stick grenades, do not have a wide body, then a tight bottleneck and then a round top, and there have been worse games. Are you viewing this as an argument or a debate? I'm saying this is not a fair review, and also, not taking cover and not aiming at your targets is not 'seeing how the game works' And there has been other games where things remain on the hotbar but grayed out and you need to replace it, i know i have played one in my own life, if you want i can try and get the name for you

Actually nvm, i already found it, Space Engineers, you need to assign things to your hotbar and weapons and tools not in your inventory are grayed out Edit: There is also the abundant RPGs where items give you abilities and when you put them on your hotbar, they are grayed out once the thing that gave you that ability is no longer equipped or in your inventory, World of Warcraft and SWTOR being the first 2 that come to mind

Tell that to Gyllene Tider and Per Gessle. Hell, they even sing "Gyllene Tider" as part of their songs; I'll believe the evidence of my ears before I believe some rando on the internet.

I agree that it does lack disabled gamer ease of use and such, but i don't think they really considered it when making the game, a lot of games lack disabled gamer accessibility in all fairness, COD actively making you worse off since you can't use every single key at your disposal, but you can't call Generation Zero and COD out alone for this, there are many others games that do this and disabled gamers are simply too small of a community in the game scene to actively warrant game companies making such changes, and in some cases, it might even lead to the abuse of additions if it's implemented incorrectly, because for example, if a game has a feature for disabled players to have a greater reaction time to a certain thing, like blocking in a sword fighting game, who is to say that others won't abuse that feature and enable it even when they are not disabled, it's just too much work for too little gain to game companies at this point, but hey, there is always hope for the future where disabled people are treated more fairly.

No, this game is crap. Bad design is bad design, and this game is very badly designed. I play _a lot_ of games...hell, I'm _made_ games. And believe me, when it comes to controls and UI design, this game is absolutely _garbage._ The design choices made were idiotic, sophomoric, and counter-intuitive as hell.

@Syrkit OK hear out how is it bad just saying it's bad isn't helping

@@Tyson-rx8pg *ONE:* Having "take all" and "leave all" be the same button is extremely stupid. *TWO:* Graying out items on the equipment wheel makes them look unusable, not that you have none. The number '0' exists for a reason, and it would have helped to see it. *THREE:* Therese insisting on only using a medkit built from specific items, rather than _any_ medkit you've built is extremely stupid, especially if this is a tutorial on how to do it rather than being on rails. It would be especially bad if it's not even your first playthrough. *FOUR:* The explosive item doesn't _say_ it's a crafting item _in its own description,_ and the model sure looks a bit like old school grenades. It says it's "an explosive material used to make things go boom", which implies it can be used all on its own. The fact that it's on a list of crafting items on the left hand side _isn't good enough;_ the item itself needs a label right in its description. *FIVE:* Taking away the ammo counter instead of it reading '0' when you're empty also leaves the player wondering WTF, cuz _games don't do that._ These are all _terrible_ game design choices.

@Syrkit @Syrkit ok number one course they would be the same button you wouldn't take all from your personal storage number 2 it's more universally easy to grey out the item then to have them say zero example your companion you only get one of them so of course it's gonna be grey d out and for other single item slot things three crafting one Medkit isn't that hard it literally gives you the resources and four the explosive item does not look like a old grenade it looks like a small jar of gunpowder number 5 is the only one that makes sense

@@Tyson-rx8pg *_ok number one course they would be the same button you wouldn't take all from your personal storage_* Really? _Who says?_ I've done it. I'm sure many people have taken all from their personal storage. And it doesn't _matter._ If a player has been using the same button to loot, the expectation will be that it's the button to use for taking and not leaving. Switching it up based on circumstances makes no sense at all. *_number 2 it's more universally easy to grey out the item then to have them say zero_* "Easy"? I don't care about "easy". I care about _user-friendly,_ and those are two different animals. _Obviously,_ graying them out was confusing, because a grayed out item usually indicates _that it's there but cannot be used._ And why do I say that? Because literally _every other bit of software, game or not, works that way._ Same for the lack of an ammo-counter when the amount you have is zero; between that and the clicking sound _and_ the grayed out items, it sure looked like the gun had been rendered unusable. Broken. _*three crafting one Medkit isn't that hard it literally gives you the resources *_ I never said it was _hard,_ I said it was _stupid game design_ for Therese to not take a medkit I had made _unless I made it from specific textiles._ I made the medkit easily...she just _wouldn't take it_ because of which materials I'd used to make it. She _only_ wanted a medkit made from the textiles I found _outside._ Stupid, stupid, stupid. It's a medkit. I made it. Just take it, you wounded dummy! *_four the explosive item does not look like a old grenade it looks like a small jar of gunpowder number_* No, it does look like those strange WWII grenades shaped like a short bat or club. Go look it up.

Or maybe the game is badly designed. Whomever thought that the same key should be used for "Take All" and "Leave All" should lose their parking space, because that was _dumb._

Awesome, thanks! :) Glad to have you onboard.

Well, one, I _know_ I didn't press 'F'. Two, I was still holding a weapon, so I clearly didn't store that. Or if I did store it but it somehow stayed in my hand, that's an extra problem... Three, my equipment wheel wasn't empty, it was grayed out, implying everything was still there, but unusable. And four, if the ammo counter had still been there but reading 'zero', it might have been a clue, but they took it away _entirely._ No matter how you slice it, that's bad game design. Even if I screwed up and stored everything, the game sure didn't _act like it_ with regard to my inventory and interface. Crap game design.

@@Syrkit The irritating store all button is 'R', I remember because when I played the game, I would accidentally do that all the time. The reason, the storage box is 'R' to store all items and everything else 'R' is take all and exit. Why they did this? I don't know When you are out of an item, it turns gray in the weapons wheel. Honestly, even with better weapons the game is boring, the enemies always know where you are (with sniper accuracy), the missions are all the same, and base building/defending is not that fun.

@@awezomerobot *_The reason, the storage box is 'R' to store all items and everything else 'R' is take all and exit._* Oh, merciful Zeus, _really?_ Ugh. I was already not happy with the game design, but geez. *_When you are out of an item, it turns gray in the weapons wheel._* They could at least have put a '0' next to it...I coulda figured that out. And your description makes it sound worse than I thought from what little I played. Egad.

I've never seen gamers on UA-cam make a "DO NOT PLAY" list, but this inspired me. Maybe I'm the first to list the worst.

@Syrkit I like it! I'm always interested in hearing what's not worth playing so I don't waste my money (although I'm sorry you had to for my benefit!)

@@SciStrikeling Tomorrow's video is not a "DO NOT PLAY", but I know I'm not finishing it; it's a horror game that scared the pants off of me. If you want to hear me scream like a child, stick around to the end. _Monday's_ video is another "DO NOT PLAY", tho.

@@Syrkit sounds fun! 😊

I do that about an hour and four minutes in, actually.

@@Syrkit Awesome, I was working while watching, so I must have missed it. XD Glad to see more people enjoying this game.

@@TheDevian I'm definitely enjoying it. It's a challenge without being stressful.

Also hello from my Minecraft-specific channel

I believe this is the remastered version, too. :)

@@SciStrikelingGaming Hoya! Never did get into Minecraft, but I only played, like, an hour or three the one time I tried it.

@Syrkit I've been really into modded Minecraft which I never thought I would be. I was always a "vanilla is the only way to play" person but then I dipped my toes into modded and got hooked and dove right in lol

@@SciStrikelingGaming Oh, been there, mostly with Bethesda games (and Baldur's Gate 3). I refused to mod a game for the longest time. (I also refuse to call it "vanilla", cuz the notion that vanilla is "plain" is one to which I object strongly; I call it the "base game".) I mostly only use graphics tweaks and QoL mods cuz the gameplay is pretty solid; they could just stand to be prettier. Or, in the case of Fallout 4, could use a wider range of materials and objects in their base-building function, kinda thing.

Thanks. :) I just played until I got tired of it; I'm only doing these for funsies. :)

Huh. It never seemed like enough to me. I always figured pouring like that was for acid or lava to hurt your enemies.

True. But don't worry; there will be more streams. I ought to do them in the evening instead, but I'd been meaning to do a stream of GalCiv4, and I wanted to play a game, so...

It can be _made_ fun, but I'm not sure I'll ever enjoy Campaign Mode.
