I remember years ago when people discovered Redfall in Bethesda's trademark listings and everyone theorized it was going to be The Elder Scrolls VI. Good times.
That Corporate Commander skit killed me. When the guy on the phone skeptically asks, “Seventy dollars?!” Like even a fellow corporate hack knows that’s wild.
No, filthy miser. $70 is NOT expensive for a hobby, especially for an adult. Kids have no trouble saving money for things they like, neither should you. If you can't afford to spend $70 on something you like, that's pathetic.
not a coincidence these games do this. Red fall, saints row, dead island 2, dying light and more. They start talking about diversity and saying white ppl r over represented and make most of em evil and then the games shit. Lmao the fact ppl think I'm a dick for pointing this out is wild. When u get a bunch of soj workers and u get forced to make cry rooms for them ur game is f-u-c-k-e-d!!!! O n star field lol.
Even the people arguing "but muh inflation" are wrong. There are more people purchasing games than ever. And if these companies just stopped making terrible games they could be charging $20 for AAA quality games and go even. Assuming that the games are above average. Just look at elden ring. An above average game (with an unspeakable amount of issues mind you) that blew out the competition on its first day of sales. It probably sold more than all Angry Joe 3/10 or lower in one day than these did in a month.
I imagine at some point they just wanted to see how high they could get it. I hope they made it a drinking game lol, but I guess if they did that they'd be dead XD
Literally every review of Redfall is better than the game. That's where the real entertainment with AAA Games comes from now. Other people shitting on them.
Honestly I think this should have gotten a 1/10. Specifically BECAUSE of that $70 price point with the false advertising. If the industry is raising the starting price. We in turn need to raise our standards and be harsher on games and publishers. They need to earn that extra $10.
The market is so saturated and indy studios can make such good games at low prices. These AAA should be competing downward in price. Especially when they almost all have microtransactions
Notice the pattern? Every goddamn studio Microsoft bought. And I remember clearly how Microsoft fanboys mocking $70 price tag for PlayStation games. It turns out microshit have 70 dollar price tag as well, for their trash. At least PlayStation exclusives are good, so they worth the 70 dollar price point.

it may sound crazy, but honestly, the game price will raise sooner or later. Heck, games price was $50 back in NES era until mid 90s.

I liked the stationary cutcenes when Arkane did it in Dishonored because it was atmospheric and fit the oil painting art style. But that doesn't mean they can just throw them into every game because it worked with one!
I think I finally recognize "Our Most Ambitious Game to Date" is marketing speak for we promised too much and are missing development milestones, I hope the upper management gives us more time to develop this game or the next year is going to be hell. Some studios get lucky and pull off a miracle and make a great game, others fail miserably, what stays the same is at least someone almost worked themselves to death doing unpaid overtime.
if ambition is 4 player co-op with recycled mission design, mediocre ai and powerpoint cutscenes i think game devs might need to rethink their idea of what ambition actually is, it feels "ambitious" is always applied to these types of 4 player live service games, to me thats not ambition thats just following trends
Being super ambitious has never been a positive in marketting. It always meant "our game will suffer from feature bloat, oversized maps with nothing in them or unrefined features/gameplay loop"
Hah yeah. I especially enjoyed the end where OJ is asking "you wanna play a vampire game" and he's looking old compared to 13 years ago (as he should).
No it hasn’t been. Honestly, I’d say this year has been a pretty good overall year for game releases. We’ll see how the rest of it goes, but Joe himself gave multiple games 10s earlier in the year.
😂. This review is just as lazy as the game they reviewed; all reused clips from a 4 hour stream an no new imput on the game itself. Watch a review from years ago an then watch this...lazy crap. How the mighty have fallen. The dichotomy of angry Joe and arkane is one and the same. At the end od the day go elsewhere if you want info on a game.
@@Hobgoblinslayer69 You clearly didn't watch the video lmao. And like the other person said, this content is free, unlike this game where you either have to pay full price or get it on game pass which still costs money. You literally have said nothing valid
If gaming companies want to jack up prices, then they should have even more content than games from my youth. Growing up in the 90s and 00s, we actually had FINISHED games you didnt pay to unlock stuff. Now games are nearly 3 times as expensive, unfinished, and filled with micro transactions
When he talked about how this was the worst AAA game in awhile in the opening, all I could think about was how funny it is this review was recorded before Gollum released lol
that all depends on Joe, since his reviews have taken a back seat to those news updates. He really should leave that to OJ and Alex, since I think the whole point of that whole segment is to give them more of a chance to shine, since Joe supposedly steals the spotlight for himself for years lol
@Sebastian Gonzales Everyone has a sense of integrity. If the devs actually cared about their reputation, and what Arkane represents in the industry, they never would have compromised everything they believe in and stand for by humouring Arkane and Bethesda's stakeholders. They never would have agreed to wrap up whatever... "this" is. If I were on that team, I would make many serious consideration: remain with my peers, or jump ship (and swim to a far better shore).
@@sebastiangonzales46 It's easy to say that. But development STILL went into this game. Apparently. Somewhere. Under the surface. They're all responsible. Corporate AND development team
The even sadder part about all of this, is Arkane has not said one word since release. and after 5 weeks, not one patch released! Fucking unacceptable!!!
Frankly one of the best reviews so far. From Joe freezing himself to mimic the "cutscenes", to the skits, to Alex' smug look when he C4's Joe, to Joe attacking the camera and using the OJ 'technical difficulties' sign, all of it was brilliant.
In order for us to get an instant classic of an Angry Review, all you need is a game that puts Joe through the wringer and into an existential crisis while playtesting ;D
When Joe started freezing it reminded me of those other youtubers that talk using reaction thumbnails as a mascot. It must've been started by extra credits but they take it to a new level.
Oh my God, the fact that Joe framed himself in silly poses to mock how cheap and crappy the cutscenes (if you can even CALL them that) were, is the chocolate covered cherry on top of this entire video for me😂 Edit: For those who wanna know what I'm talking about, look at 12:44
I burst out laughing when the woman highlighted the AI being tactical and able to take cover as if that's something impressive/special in 2023. Guerrilla Games implemented tactical AI in Killzone for the PS2.
2005 was a very long time ago my dude. The technology we have in 2023 may be better but it doesn’t mean the new generation of Devs are gonna have the same talent that the devs from 17 years ago had.
@@highlivin1917 That's exactly the point, devs today have access to much more advanced SDKs and more powerful hardware to work with, it's a skill issue because in today's gaming world you don't have to be "excellent", you just have to get by and that's the lukewarm problem we have.
Thanks for defending the artists at the end! It must suck to work on something for so long just for it to turn out to be a mess because of other people's poor decisions.
This review honestly reminded me why I fell in love with this channel in the first place. INSTANT classic right here! It felt like being back ten years ago when I first was tearing up to your angry reviews as a kid
Tbh it's easy to forget we had a lot of really good game for quite some time. Even the stinkers at least had some pretty good redeemable qualities. Redfall is just a complete and utter disaster, the kind you used to only see years ago when studios just didn't care. Redfall has more in common with those early access games on steam made by a studio that just wants a cash-in than anything resembling what Arkane has done in the last 10 years, which is why it's so infamous. It's not a shit studio making a shit game that surprises nobody, it's a great studio making an absolute dumpster fire.
I will forever thank this abomination of a gaming for giving material to one of the top angry joe reviews of all time. This one is gonna be one of those constant repeat ones form me, guaranteed.
While Angry Joe is a cute example of child-like hyperbole, as a neo-scientific-realist-centrist ally of abstractions, this game just needs to be fixed otherwise it's fine.
To be fair, Alex' soul and face dies with anything on or below average ;D ;D That's what I love about that behemoth: I only need to check his face or composure to know if something is worth the hassle or not ;D

At this point we all seriously start to wonder if the game developers from different companies all sit around in a room waging bets on who can make a more worse game title on release and make the most money 😕
Nah they just hire people based on race and gender and if they say what they made is shit they'd be called Sexist and racist by their own employees. This is the modern work environment. The minority does all the work while diversity hires get paid to sit around and gossip.
the devs aren't responsible, its everyone above them, do you think devs give a rats ass about DRM and capping framerates? its the people who actually make the money (executives)
Aw seeing young Joes, so sweet, so innocent. Not yet knowing what their lives would become. Yet they do it for us, we don’t deserve Joes. Joes are love, joes are life.
I started laughing at 8:20 at the window bit and then I realized that was probably the exact same thing Arkane and Bethesda were doing on the other side of the window and I got kinda sad.
I had no interest in the game so I didn’t really know about it. Watching this video has really opened my eyes and shocked me how bad it really is. Keep fighting the good fight Joe and the angry army. Appreciate y’all
This current state of "AAA" games has been getting more and more questionable for whether the title is actually worth a damn or will be pure trash. At least with Redfall being on Game Pass, it's not bad to try to see if it is worth it or not, but for others that's just the usual 50/50 gamble of good or bad and we have to rely on people like AJ and others to truly give us a heads-up on what's happening with games now pricing at most $70, we gotta be more vigilant
It was such a good setting. I hope someone does the same concept of a town of people turning into vampires, blotting out the sun and raising the sea, but does it competently.
I've considering doing this concept as a fan game that has a female dhampire as the lead anti-heroine to serve as a spiritual successor to Bloodrayne numerous times but haven't done it because I don't have the money, team, or the tech to do it and have it be good aka playable and fun. Cause as Redfall proved having an awesome concept like this and actually turning it into a awesome game that's actually playable and fun are two completely different things.
17:35 I personally loved the idea of the past-blast storytelling in something like Metro, but that's because they executed it so well. Seeing the ruins turned back to life, with the hustle and bustle of people, contrasted with the present day made it incredibly beautiful yet haunting.
It boggles the mind how you can make Vampire Bosses *boring.* You could've had each vampire boss specialize in a different aspect of vamprism: One is really into transformation magic, so they keep turning into a wolf for sudden lunging charges or bats for dodging and plink damage. Someone who mixes up their attacks so much it's hard to study them. One is a dab hand and blood magic, so it's an arena full of captured humans for them to feast on to regain health and kill off to use their blood for big attacks, and players could try to free some of them to deny them to the boss but put themselves in a vulnerable spot while they do so. One does shadow magic and their section is a battle against the environment as shadows lance out from every direction to attack the player, forcing a lot of dodging reactions and using flashlights to try and pin down the boss long enough to deal some damage. One is the last before the final boss and they focus on thralling and necromancy, the person who's been creating the majority of the minions you've been fighting all game, and taking him out would feel like a real reward and proper payback against the horde. Their arena would be a mashup of unique "Experiments" of creatures they've tried to make rather than just more standard dudes, unstable and with attack patterns you haven't faced yet. The final final boss could just use all that stuff since they're the biggest badass and of course they'd be good at all of it.
Remember when Redfall was the worst game of the year? And then it was Gollum? And then it was Kong? And then it was Walking Dead Destinies? And now it's The Day Before?... It feels like just yesterday, Arkane put out it's first dud. Oh, how the world turns.
The fact OJ could hold a straight face while saying, "you wanna play a vampire game" is a testament of his acting skills, I could tell from his eyes alone he was holding back a pained expression... X)
People more worried about keeping there jobs then putting out a good product. Even Phill had this look of wtf during the interview and disappointed at how badly it was reviewed. Mock reviewers were saying it was good, people in the middle management were OKing what was being shown. People blame Phill cause he is the face, but don't get that there is a lot of people that see what the game is like before him and they all thought this product was ok to ship. He got screwed for trusting the people below him. Xbox Needs a lot of internal cleaning up in middle management because it is filled with YES men.
@@MagumoKawasaki Well if you look at it right now this is the case. Bobby has all the say on what happens and bobby makes money. All the game devs that have experience leave the company because Bobby makes money and forces out garbage. They hire people who have no experience and split them into small teams so nothing gets done. Thats Blizzard right now. Also lets not forget the 500 law suits and other bs going on also.
7:27 “Redfall used to look like it was straight out of a postcard.” But, don’t most places on postcards look like they’re out of postcards because the postcard is a photo of that place? Anyhow should’ve known what it was from that line alone.
Other joe is actually a pretty good actor 😂 love the sketches. That you for saving us from these bad games and getting some fun out of the garbage these companies serve to us
@@2KAMB So, what are you doing in a channel whose trademark is the skits and humor? One just wonders. That's like going to the beach and complaining about the sand.
This could have been Dishonored + Vampyr + Bioshock Focus on single player as you fight through vampires, demons, and monsters using concepts throughout history to fight creatures. Garlic grenades, stake rifles, holy laser cannon using paper charms swapping different types(burn, freeze, lightning) with your guardian angel giving you powers like blind the enemies with holy light, transform into a nephilm with increased strength and defense and claws, stealth with your holy dagger for melee. You can upgrade your weapons against enemies that gain new forms as it goes on. Side missions as you help people based on stories tied to the creature’s mythos like a side mission involving Bloody Mary harassing people in a neighborhood or the local zombie trying to create an army to fight the vampires by killing innocents. You can make decisions that ultimately culminate with you fighting the head vampire and you either defeating them and preparing for your next fight with the true enemy Satan or you become Satan’s new minion. The choices are based on how you handle certain decisions like whether you banish a child’s ghostly soul or grant him peace. Notes could be actually based on creature lore and how they’re affecting the world. Add proper music and graphics and you have a game.
Vampyr was jank but that relationship mechanic was really interesting and really drove the player to explore and talk to everyone. Would like to see something similar on a bigger scale
@@willywitchdoctor There was charm to the jank lol but yes, a version of that blown up with massive talent behind it would be amazing, especially since it feels like vampire games don’t get as much love as they could
Yeah, a fitting studio to fulfil true potential of such a cool concept with great depth, and they wasted it down the shitter. What sucks is not how the game turned out and all the shortcomings it has such as it being a live service-looter-shooter-always online-coop-dogshit, but a missed opportunity. Who knows when someone else will try to make a proper game in that setting with at least a fraction of depth and interesting stuff that you described. Rather later than sooner at this point, when someone will try to pitch the idea of a game being about vampires, redfall will be in the discussion why they probably shouldn't
Angry Joe put a lot more thought and effort into making fun of this game’s shortcomings than Arkane did in developing the actual game. And we got to see Corporate Commander again! 😆 I was afraid Joe had retired that character for good.
"WORST GAME of 2023!?" *lights dim* *All of the Lights instrumental starts playing* *A single spotlight focuses on midcourt where a lone figure stands* It's Gollum
Joe’s Raging fit’s are quite literally the best thing to experience for any gamer. This man has saved so much money for players by being brutally honest ripping stupid cash grab titles apart & I don’t personally think anyone can replicate this man’s persona. Angry Joe is solidified as a Gaming Legend in the community by now & these shitty games make for some of the best angry reviews. Kinda makes you wish studios keep making shitty games for him to rip em apart , I can watch a 100 videos of Joe raging

It's just sad that we live in a world now that we either get god tier masterpieces like zelda and the complete other side of the spectrum we get this and gollum 😂😂😢😢
it may sound crazy, but honestly, the game price will raise sooner or later. Heck, games price was $50 back in NES era until mid 90s. Despite ppl was outraged, it's excusable because technology had advanced really fast back then. Remember Starfox? The classic SNES game that utilized mode7 graphics? It was only $40.
However, there are so many games released at $70 that were horseshit like this trAAAsh
Thank god Joe played this shit before I decided to buy it
the fact that not even playing with friends made this fun for him says a lot about this game
And you can play this single player!? *Shudders Violently* >_
so the argument of "It's fun with friends!" isn't even a thing!
I think the game will be much better if they didn’t have the co-op aspect of it in there
Worse than cleaning septic tank with friends.

I liked the stationary cutcenes when Arkane did it in Dishonored because it was atmospheric and fit the oil painting art style. But that doesn't mean they can just throw them into every game because it worked with one!
Everything started to go down when Raphael left. Young blood was bland, cringe and boring, but not offensive. This is a travesty
Also dishonored had actual animated convos especially 2 that looked amazing
They were way smaller then as well
Fun fact: you put more love and work into the review than the Devs did to the original game. Guess thats all I have to say about it.
AJ's rush towards the camera while yelling "You peace of sh*t!!" then doing a cut off was the best unententonal fanf jump scare ever.
That was really funny and unexpected. Angry Joe's humor is really surreal lol. He's getting better
26:20 😂😂😂
@It's a Llama he's at his best when he reviews a game that's really bad.
OMG it so was. Scared the shit out of me. It so meme-worthy too.
Reminds me of noah antwiller's old reviews.
I think I finally recognize "Our Most Ambitious Game to Date" is marketing speak for we promised too much and are missing development milestones, I hope the upper management gives us more time to develop this game or the next year is going to be hell. Some studios get lucky and pull off a miracle and make a great game, others fail miserably, what stays the same is at least someone almost worked themselves to death doing unpaid overtime.
44:00
Ambitious, but rubbish
@@cleanerben9636 nice top gear reference
if ambition is 4 player co-op with recycled mission design, mediocre ai and powerpoint cutscenes i think game devs might need to rethink their idea of what ambition actually is, it feels "ambitious" is always applied to these types of 4 player live service games, to me thats not ambition thats just following trends
Being super ambitious has never been a positive in marketting. It always meant "our game will suffer from feature bloat, oversized maps with nothing in them or unrefined features/gameplay loop"
Watching Joe and OJ get younger was kind of a trip.
Skinnier too xD
Hah yeah. I especially enjoyed the end where OJ is asking "you wanna play a vampire game" and he's looking old compared to 13 years ago (as he should).
Yeah for sure
Sad isn't it.
Puts things into perspective 🚬🗿
Joe thought Redfall would be the worst game of 2023.
Then Gollum was like, "Hold my beer."
Oh god, the first bit of Alex being "I'm a vampire!" then getting shot once and dying had me laughing. This is gonna be a good review.
Also nice reference to Heroes of Might and Magic 3 vampire sound effect
I was cracking up when he’s just “Ow!”
@@drzewonietoperz No game should use any other soundeffect for Vampires turning up.
Man you can't just declare Redfall as the worst game of the year, we're only halfway through, and 2023 has been such a gold mine for shitty games.
and how right you ended up being. lmao
So far Gollum is leading.
Redfail will be in 2nd behind Gollom.
@@TimmiiGamingChannel Again, lets not count the chickens before they hatch.
No it hasn’t been. Honestly, I’d say this year has been a pretty good overall year for game releases. We’ll see how the rest of it goes, but Joe himself gave multiple games 10s earlier in the year.
These classic angry reviews are so iconic. Thank you guys for all your hard work!
That mind Jack one where he suffers brain damage 😂
😂. This review is just as lazy as the game they reviewed; all reused clips from a 4 hour stream an no new imput on the game itself. Watch a review from years ago an then watch this...lazy crap. How the mighty have fallen. The dichotomy of angry Joe and arkane is one and the same. At the end od the day go elsewhere if you want info on a game.
@@Hobgoblinslayer69 this review is free
@@Hobgoblinslayer69 You clearly didn't watch the video lmao. And like the other person said, this content is free, unlike this game where you either have to pay full price or get it on game pass which still costs money. You literally have said nothing valid
@@MyEpicAnime bro you know he paid full price for the game that’s why he’s hating
If gaming companies want to jack up prices, then they should have even more content than games from my youth. Growing up in the 90s and 00s, we actually had FINISHED games you didnt pay to unlock stuff. Now games are nearly 3 times as expensive, unfinished, and filled with micro transactions
Watching how angry Joe was with this review really makes me look forward to when he reviews Gollum! We've got a fun couple videos ahead of us, guys.
When he talked about how this was the worst AAA game in awhile in the opening, all I could think about was how funny it is this review was recorded before Gollum released lol
@@Bpinatornah redfall is worse
I honestly hope Joe doesn't waste his time with that game. Just looking at its gameplay alone, it dosen't deserve a review.
that all depends on Joe, since his reviews have taken a back seat to those news updates. He really should leave that to OJ and Alex, since I think the whole point of that whole segment is to give them more of a chance to shine, since Joe supposedly steals the spotlight for himself for years lol
Wtf is gollum?
You put more effort into this review than the developers put into Redfall.
Developers? I thought they just used interns I hope they didnt pay anyone to make that
You mean Diversity Hires.
It's the company and leadership's fault not the devs.
@Sebastian Gonzales Everyone has a sense of integrity. If the devs actually cared about their reputation, and what Arkane represents in the industry, they never would have compromised everything they believe in and stand for by humouring Arkane and Bethesda's stakeholders. They never would have agreed to wrap up whatever... "this" is.
If I were on that team, I would make many serious consideration: remain with my peers, or jump ship (and swim to a far better shore).
@@sebastiangonzales46 It's easy to say that. But development STILL went into this game. Apparently. Somewhere. Under the surface. They're all responsible. Corporate AND development team
The even sadder part about all of this, is Arkane has not said one word since release. and after 5 weeks, not one patch released! Fucking unacceptable!!!
Radio silence just like how No Man's Sky was treated at launch
But they take Coverrrrr
Damn Lab42 devs responded faster then this
Woke developers can't develop good games. Modern gaming in a nutshell.
Why would they patch it when nobody is playing that trash?
Dude, fuckin Adam Sadler as Dracula from Hotel Transylvania is more threatening than any of these monsters in this whole game!!
Heck, Leslie Nielsen from _Dracula: Dead and Loving it_ is more frightening than these guys.
Frankly one of the best reviews so far. From Joe freezing himself to mimic the "cutscenes", to the skits, to Alex' smug look when he C4's Joe, to Joe attacking the camera and using the OJ 'technical difficulties' sign, all of it was brilliant.
In order for us to get an instant classic of an Angry Review, all you need is a game that puts Joe through the wringer and into an existential crisis while playtesting ;D
Yea it feels like this game was literally designed for an angry review. They fucked up every aspect of the game 😂 doesnt even seem real
@@user019-q2llooks like where about to get another banger angry review with the gollom game 😂😂😂😂
When Joe started freezing it reminded me of those other youtubers that talk using reaction thumbnails as a mascot. It must've been started by extra credits but they take it to a new level.
Oh my God, the fact that Joe framed himself in silly poses to mock how cheap and crappy the cutscenes (if you can even CALL them that) were, is the chocolate covered cherry on top of this entire video for me😂
Edit: For those who wanna know what I'm talking about, look at 12:44
I thought my phone was lagging for a second. 😂
That part made me laugh so hard, absolutely genius. Rewinded like 80 times lmfao
I swear, I rewinded it a few times because I thought my phone just glitched or lagged because the audio was still playing lol

The fact that F.E.A.R. 1, a game from 2005, still has better in-game AI compared to 99.999% of any game after that is absolutely mind boggling to me.
I burst out laughing when the woman highlighted the AI being tactical and able to take cover as if that's something impressive/special in 2023. Guerrilla Games implemented tactical AI in Killzone for the PS2.
2005 was a very long time ago my dude. The technology we have in 2023 may be better but it doesn’t mean the new generation of Devs are gonna have the same talent that the devs from 17 years ago had.
@@highlivin1917 That's exactly the point, devs today have access to much more advanced SDKs and more powerful hardware to work with, it's a skill issue because in today's gaming world you don't have to be "excellent", you just have to get by and that's the lukewarm problem we have.
Fear 1 is an amazing game. 😃👍
@@highlivin1917 cool story bro
Thanks for defending the artists at the end! It must suck to work on something for so long just for it to turn out to be a mess because of other people's poor decisions.

This review honestly reminded me why I fell in love with this channel in the first place. INSTANT classic right here! It felt like being back ten years ago when I first was tearing up to your angry reviews as a kid
Alejandro... alejandro............... ale alejandro ale alejandro......
Tbh it's easy to forget we had a lot of really good game for quite some time. Even the stinkers at least had some pretty good redeemable qualities. Redfall is just a complete and utter disaster, the kind you used to only see years ago when studios just didn't care. Redfall has more in common with those early access games on steam made by a studio that just wants a cash-in than anything resembling what Arkane has done in the last 10 years, which is why it's so infamous. It's not a shit studio making a shit game that surprises nobody, it's a great studio making an absolute dumpster fire.
I will forever thank this abomination of a gaming for giving material to one of the top angry joe reviews of all time. This one is gonna be one of those constant repeat ones form me, guaranteed.
havent seen Joe this "angry" in a while. downright spitting on the developers. good stuff. one of his better reviews in a while IMO.
Joe is a bandwagoner: he always hates what most people hate, he always loves what most people loves...

That dude from Arkane needed that tall glass of water for the tough pill he had to swallow lol
I think they got a diversity hired staff, from their twitter
Getting a 0/10 from Joe might be harder than getting a 10 from fantano
The fact that redfall didn’t even get a 7/10 from ign says something.
Getting a zero means it doesn't exist
To getting 0/10 you really have to try.
@@shirokatatsu5886 maybe that's where the real effort in this game went
For a game to get a 0/10, it has to be completely unplayable. Redfall is still technically functional, if flawed in nearly every aspect.
AngryJoe needs to actively search for bad games to review. His bad game reviews are hilarious!
He kind of does that at the end of the year for his yearly Worst Games lists.
I can feel Alex's pain just from his facial expressions in each segment. His soul died playing this game.
To be fair, Alex' soul and face dies with anything on or below average ;D ;D That's what I love about that behemoth: I only need to check his face or composure to know if something is worth the hassle or not ;D
i like how gollum came out on the same day as this review, instantly stealing the 'worst of 2023' crown just as angry joe posted this lol
I was searching his channel for big G lol.
Wow, didn't know that. Hilarious.

Nooo that can’t be true😂
At this point we all seriously start to wonder if the game developers from different companies all sit around in a room waging bets on who can make a more worse game title on release and make the most money 😕
cd project red was there?
@@PrimeGlaz all of then
as long as they stick to Blackrocks EGS rules, the money will always flow.
Nah they just hire people based on race and gender and if they say what they made is shit they'd be called Sexist and racist by their own employees. This is the modern work environment. The minority does all the work while diversity hires get paid to sit around and gossip.
the devs aren't responsible, its everyone above them, do you think devs give a rats ass about DRM and capping framerates? its the people who actually make the money (executives)
at this point I’m more convinced that all bad games out there have hidden purpose, and that is “money laundering”.
Anytime a studio says "this is our most ambitious title" you know it is going to suck.
AJ banging on the studio window demanding his money back got me 😂
That shit had me rolling 🤣
FR THAT WAS HILARIOUS 😂😂

Aw seeing young Joes, so sweet, so innocent. Not yet knowing what their lives would become. Yet they do it for us, we don’t deserve Joes. Joes are love, joes are life.
I started laughing at 8:20 at the window bit and then I realized that was probably the exact same thing Arkane and Bethesda were doing on the other side of the window and I got kinda sad.
bruce, garry and etc are gone .... arcane austin ...M$
I had no interest in the game so I didn’t really know about it. Watching this video has really opened my eyes and shocked me how bad it really is. Keep fighting the good fight Joe and the angry army. Appreciate y’all
It's getting worse. I've been playing older games.
It's getting WAY worse. The last five years of gaming have been just horrible and totally forgettable in every way.
This current state of "AAA" games has been getting more and more questionable for whether the title is actually worth a damn or will be pure trash. At least with Redfall being on Game Pass, it's not bad to try to see if it is worth it or not, but for others that's just the usual 50/50 gamble of good or bad and we have to rely on people like AJ and others to truly give us a heads-up on what's happening with games now pricing at most $70, we gotta be more vigilant
RN AC MIRAGE and SPIDERMAN 2 are the only things i care about. cant trust anybody else lol and even Ubisoft is a lil dodgy rn
@@nousername2942 agreed
It was such a good setting. I hope someone does the same concept of a town of people turning into vampires, blotting out the sun and raising the sea, but does it competently.
It's heartbreaking to see really good ideas get rushed or half-assed because the developers aren't confident in themselves
I've considering doing this concept as a fan game that has a female dhampire as the lead anti-heroine to serve as a spiritual successor to Bloodrayne numerous times but haven't done it because I don't have the money, team, or the tech to do it and have it be good aka playable and fun.
Cause as Redfall proved having an awesome concept like this and actually turning it into a awesome game that's actually playable and fun are two completely different things.
this is basically just another back4blood but with a vampire paint job lmao

It boggles the mind how you can make Vampire Bosses *boring.*
You could've had each vampire boss specialize in a different aspect of vamprism:
One is really into transformation magic, so they keep turning into a wolf for sudden lunging charges or bats for dodging and plink damage. Someone who mixes up their attacks so much it's hard to study them.
One is a dab hand and blood magic, so it's an arena full of captured humans for them to feast on to regain health and kill off to use their blood for big attacks, and players could try to free some of them to deny them to the boss but put themselves in a vulnerable spot while they do so.
One does shadow magic and their section is a battle against the environment as shadows lance out from every direction to attack the player, forcing a lot of dodging reactions and using flashlights to try and pin down the boss long enough to deal some damage.
One is the last before the final boss and they focus on thralling and necromancy, the person who's been creating the majority of the minions you've been fighting all game, and taking him out would feel like a real reward and proper payback against the horde. Their arena would be a mashup of unique "Experiments" of creatures they've tried to make rather than just more standard dudes, unstable and with attack patterns you haven't faced yet.
The final final boss could just use all that stuff since they're the biggest badass and of course they'd be good at all of it.
Corporate commander"nah...fuck all that shit... hahahaahahahahahaha"!!!!!!!!!
This is a great idea and I hope one day we see it in a game worth playing.
Greed and time. Never enough of either
Remember when Redfall was the worst game of the year? And then it was Gollum? And then it was Kong? And then it was Walking Dead Destinies? And now it's The Day Before?... It feels like just yesterday, Arkane put out it's first dud. Oh, how the world turns.
The fact OJ could hold a straight face while saying, "you wanna play a vampire game" is a testament of his acting skills, I could tell from his eyes alone he was holding back a pained expression... X)
It feels like the developers actually hated this project. Their is no way they put this little effort and took pride in their work.
they did hate it, this was literally a zenamax mandate
Hit the nail on the head
Nailed it.
Blood and Wine was a DLC. And it was a very well done, very well written game. What is happening to this industry?
People more worried about keeping there jobs then putting out a good product. Even Phill had this look of wtf during the interview and disappointed at how badly it was reviewed. Mock reviewers were saying it was good, people in the middle management were OKing what was being shown. People blame Phill cause he is the face, but don't get that there is a lot of people that see what the game is like before him and they all thought this product was ok to ship. He got screwed for trusting the people below him. Xbox Needs a lot of internal cleaning up in middle management because it is filled with YES men.
Don't compare Toussaint to this.
@@MagumoKawasaki Well if you look at it right now this is the case. Bobby has all the say on what happens and bobby makes money.

This could have been Dishonored + Vampyr + Bioshock
Focus on single player as you fight through vampires, demons, and monsters using concepts throughout history to fight creatures. Garlic grenades, stake rifles, holy laser cannon using paper charms swapping different types(burn, freeze, lightning) with your guardian angel giving you powers like blind the enemies with holy light, transform into a nephilm with increased strength and defense and claws, stealth with your holy dagger for melee. You can upgrade your weapons against enemies that gain new forms as it goes on. Side missions as you help people based on stories tied to the creature’s mythos like a side mission involving Bloody Mary harassing people in a neighborhood or the local zombie trying to create an army to fight the vampires by killing innocents. You can make decisions that ultimately culminate with you fighting the head vampire and you either defeating them and preparing for your next fight with the true enemy Satan or you become Satan’s new minion. The choices are based on how you handle certain decisions like whether you banish a child’s ghostly soul or grant him peace. Notes could be actually based on creature lore and how they’re affecting the world. Add proper music and graphics and you have a game.
Vampyr was jank but that relationship mechanic was really interesting and really drove the player to explore and talk to everyone. Would like to see something similar on a bigger scale
@@willywitchdoctor There was charm to the jank lol but yes, a version of that blown up with massive talent behind it would be amazing, especially since it feels like vampire games don’t get as much love as they could
Yeah, a fitting studio to fulfil true potential of such a cool concept with great depth, and they wasted it down the shitter.
What sucks is not how the game turned out and all the shortcomings it has such as it being a live service-looter-shooter-always online-coop-dogshit, but a missed opportunity.
Who knows when someone else will try to make a proper game in that setting with at least a fraction of depth and interesting stuff that you described.
Rather later than sooner at this point, when someone will try to pitch the idea of a game being about vampires, redfall will be in the discussion why they probably shouldn't

GotY for sure. 😂
