It truly was a Kino7. It feels absurd but also sincere and above all, a mid-2000s experiment that just couldn't be replicated now because it'd come out as too smooth, streamlined and coherent.
Killer7 is unironically my favorite game of all time. Probably one of my favorite pieces of art regardless of medium. There is truly nothing like it and I could write endlessly about why I think it’s genius.
Fun fact: In the JP version of Killer7, psyche remnants and Iwazaru speak clear broken english (machine translated from Japanese). There's a mod that allows you to have JP Iwazaru/Psyche R. voicelines in the NA/Worldwide version. Iwazaru and Psyche Remnants are voiced by MacOS synthesized voices.
55:27 Pizza with coffee. Here in Mexico there's this pizza franchise called "Pizza Fantasy", but you're always going to see this pizzeria beside a coffee franchise called "Caramel Coffee". So technically pizza with coffee is canon.
The only way it makes sense is too focus on the dialogue and ignore the crazy stuff. This game pretty much exposed how the voting system worsk in America and the relation between Japan and the U.S .
57:47 made me realize my parents agreed to let me this game when I got it the day it came out back in 2005 (I was 14). They didn't really give a shit but they refused to let me show the game to my friends for some reason lmao.
I'm pretty sure I was building the P-Bandai HG Harute Final Battle Ver. from Gundam 00: A Wakening of the Trailblazer! Great kit, can't say the same for it's counterpart the Zabanya
Oh come on I was expecting some absolutely foul stuff with you saying “worst thumbnail ever.” Either way this game (and the streams) were a trip and a half.
@@eldonhill4840 yeah i've gathered that since i posted this. i also asked on a stream and they described it as "really good piece of film" or "really good use of the medium" either way i agree this game is kino as fuck
This kind of surealism is about very intentional design choices. It doesn't really feel anything like the random clusterfuck that ai spits out. Sureal art is distinct clear and open to interpretation. AI 'art' is derivative, chaotic and messy. It's the difference between someone speaking a language you don't understand fluently vs someone making random noises.

Same hard agree

Distorting the voices for the US release gave them a lot more personality. You can make out some vague English, but not enough.
The russian roulette scene always cracks me up no matter how many times I watch it.

Always has been.
36:10 Im so glad you guys can point out that similarity mad respect
And yes my pfp is ringo
And this is a GameCube game?! This game is so cool.
PS2 also had it, and don't forget the PC remaster.
Watched this and played the whole game, thinking it would make sense, but it actually makes less sense now that I've beaten it.

wow...kinda based you got it at age 14
16:45 EXCUSE ME BRAD WAS BUILDING GUNPLA DURING THIS?
(What was he building, btw? I’m curious.)

hee hee hee haw -heaven smile
Id be super down to watch a killer is dead playthrough
i can't think of anything funny or constuctive to say. i think it's kino.
Oh come on I was expecting some absolutely foul stuff with you saying “worst thumbnail ever.”

I gave it a 100th pass to make it observable.
@@WaifuEater Understandable.
Hell yes
hey uhhh...sorry im a dumb dumb, what do you mean when you say kino?
I think it's slang for when something is like, really cinematic or looks like it comes from an artsy film. I know in Russian it means "the movies"
@@eldonhill4840 yeah i've gathered that since i posted this. i also asked on a stream and they described it as "really good piece of film" or "really good use of the medium" either way i agree this game is kino as fuck
@@eldonhill4840 i didn't know it meant that in russian, so its practically the same as saying "cinema"
Rule list is weak sauce yo
this game just felt like it was ai generated
There’s a method to the madness that AI couldn’t replicate, I’m just not sure what exactly the method IS.
This kind of surealism is about very intentional design choices. It doesn't really feel anything like the random clusterfuck that ai spits out.
Sureal art is distinct clear and open to interpretation. AI 'art' is derivative, chaotic and messy.

No chance AI could ever generate something like this.
We used to beat people with hammers for saying that
