Publisher's usually interfere with development, have teams stick to playing it safe. An indie dev team on the other hand can take more chances, that's why you find innovative mechanics. The Ascent looks like another cool indie, looking forward to that one next week.
This is what we need more of. Nowadays only big AAA games get traction and they often disappoint while these games instantly show what they are and exceed expectations
This almost reminds me of that other isometric Zelda like game that's coming out, "Tunic." Pretty hyped these types of games are making a bit of a comeback.
Took me a long 22 hours to finish this game 100% Worth every minute. Beautiful, beautiful game. It will test your patience at times but keep at it, the end is extremely satisfying.
AAA should have nothing to do with the budget. Because if you were to describe what a AAA title should have then this game would check all the boxes. This game is great. 10/10
Devolver is the most underrated games company ever, in my opinion. They have not had a miss. Had a hand in Fall Guys, Enter The Gungeon, Cult Of The Lamb, and now this. Just bangers.

About 2 hours in and it’s great so far! Reminds me of Zelda, dark souls and Studio Ghibli 👌 UPDATE: almost 20 hours in and I’ve completed the story and am 90% done!! Amazing Indy game!!
@@baseballjustin5 that's if you own an Xbox console, which it is apparent that the OP does not own one. So they can't stream unless it was on GamePass.
great game, frustrating puzzles. an example i'd like to pull out is the frozen canyon puzzle. its timed, so you'll have to try to be as fast as possible. thing is, your on ice and can fall off at any given moment. its slippery too, and the 'checkpoints' are in my opinion, the worst. sometimes, it just brings right back to the start, even if you didnt run out of hp. it would be nice if you could just go back from where you fell from so that it wont be so frustrating to go back to the start, and go the way only to fall off the ice and get teleported to the beginning.
@@bonafide227 they said there are no plans for other consoles. Plus xbox exec says they wanna make sure gems like this stay on Xbox so we'll see. Just don't hold ur breathe. It'll probably go into gamepass in a few months
@@emodadon1131 wow you don't even know the release date The game will be out today on game pass and it's a Time exclusive my friend just be happy that you getting it on game pass day one okay
Best game I’ve played in the past 5yrs, and really not happy gonna end soon. If you like Zelda or my all time favorite Super Medtronic then this should be for you 😁😁
@@MadManCorp Seriously speaking there isn’t much of a reason to own an Xbox. It has literally zero exclusives and apparently performs worse because of weird limitations. Even Sony is starting to move more of their games to pc but they still have a library of playstation only games. If you can only afford a console and REALLY want game pass then maybe you could justify the purchase, but even that reason will be obsolete once Microsoft raises the quality of xcloud to the level of some of its competitors.
@@jakemartinez6894 some people can't afford a PC the same level of Xbox and some people just enjoy the casual style of console gaming on their TV. There are valid reasons to want to buy an Xbox.
Altho a nice game, it's not really pleasant to restart a battle from a distant save point. I've always hated this kind of save systems and they are not respectful for gamers who play occasionally with limited time. Just make it possible to at least replay a (gates close behind you) battle, instead of backtracking the whole bit. This is way to time consuming and backtracking isn't really the nicest part of the game.
This game has one of the best soundtracks of recent memory. Absolutely phenomenal
The last lord is one of the best final boss OST i've heard recently, truly phenomenal
@@Iz.deehar the whole game is really well made
Makes me Hollow Knight flashbacks)
Correct. Brilliant soundtracks. Avarice theme gets me jazzed af
To say this was made by only 2 people is pretty amazing
They worked hard, but you can't understate the support a publisher gives (money, QA, marketing, etc).
Thank you.
2 people? Come on!! And Game Freak develops Pokemon Sword & Shield?😂

You're kidding, right?! Indie games have never had so much "traction" before. They sell like hotcakes!
@@MrCrazybadbastard not all of them sell like hollow Knight for example, many release and only have a small fan base
@@thekiwigamr817 and many releases are mediocre to bad as well 🤷♂️

is it possible your expectations for AAA games are super high while your expectations of small indie studio... not so much

Leave it to Devolver Digital to scout and publish some of the most unique and fun games out there!
Absolutely! Gotta love it!
Dude understatement of the Year!!!!!

That Smough cameo though.
I'm ready to play this game on my Steam Deck next year.
Gonna play on my Aya neo lol

Not with Steam Deck just around the corner...
@@paulioricco Enjoy the stream deck it's gonna flop.
It really feels like a switch game (if that makes any sense)
Yeah, I'll pick it up once they port it to Switch. Looks pretty cool!
@@liquidfish4873 You realise that the Steam Deck is a PC in Switch clothing?
Will be a free PS Plus game for August. Can't wait to try it out.
Almost looks like Hyper Light Drifter.
Looks like no. Plays like yes, has that hit something and things charge mechanic yes
Can't wait to play this on my XBox Series X 👌🏽
Also this is on Game Pass :)
@@DavidHernandez-rn6dz no its not
@@DavidHernandez-rn6dz and netflix
Hope this releases for Switch too. Would love to play it.
It is released for switch :) it is called moonlight stream your games to your switch ahhaha
Buy a steam deck
@Curtis Mann Yeah I’m gonna buy an entire console for a $20 indie game. 😂
@Curtis Mann You seem like a well-adjusted human
@Curtis Mann If somebody is bitching, it is you.
Didnt mention the music. Music is AMAZING!
this game needs an award for aesthetics and character design, alone. they're all so unique and creative, it's incredibly refreshing
Just got it on the Series X fantastic game!
is it for children?

Maybe sooner then 6 years thou.
THIS GAME HAS THE MOST AMAZING SOUNDTRACK EVER, RIGHT BESIDE CHRONO TRIGGER
It’s a great soundtrack. Have you played Battle Chasers Nightwar? Also up there with this.
The audio sounds like you guys went back and added in certain lines afterwards, you can totally tell when his voice audio quality suddenly gets more clear
Free on PS Plus August 2023
Definitely getting Yubaba vibes at 3:37
This game is awesome, 5/5 if you like Zelda I'm pretty sure you're going to like this game!
About 2 hours in and it’s great so far! Reminds me of Zelda, dark souls and Studio Ghibli 👌
UPDATE: almost 20 hours in and I’ve completed the story and am 90% done!! Amazing Indy game!!
So happy this is finally coming to Switch!!
So it's hyper light drifter with a different art style?
On PS Plus in August can’t wait!
Reminds me of hyper light drifter, Will definitely check it out
Looks really cool, wish it was coming to Game Pass though.
Im sure it will in time
It's super cheap, it's even got 15% discount right now
You have steam?
You don't have $20? Lmao
@@renegranados4288 Why do you think Game Pass is popular? Because a lot of people aren't willing to support devs.
The audio is so weird in this review.
The worst part of this game is the slow movement. The maps are gigantic and towards the end, backtracking becomes so annoying.
First Xbox exclusive I've wanted to play guess I'll get it for the steam deck next year ....
Xbox will thank you for the purchase.
Just stream it on XCloud and save your money
@@MorrisseyMuse it's not on GamePass do it isn't on XCloud. It can only be bought on Xbox or on Steam or Microsoft store for PC

great pc console
@@pietroba2037 or switch :)
But what happens if you die in the game?
It literally says DEATH on screen with loud bass in case you were actually wondering lol
U won't replay the whole game again don't worry lol
You should stop mixing the audio in these reviews, it's clear the commentary was recorded at different times due to the inconsistent quality.
Basically ruined the game for me.
Less Zelda and more Supergiant Games IMO.
9/10
When will this be on switch?
It could be 4 months or 6 months it will be available on every console
Buy Steamdeck

Does this game have cross play between Xbox and PC? Thanks.
Sleeper of the year and momentary GOTY for me.
what’s up with 2 commentator? 😅
Thx you for making new ppl know this underrated game
It's the best 20 dollar game ever better than alot of triple As out there and only 20 bucks
Does this have difficulty options?
Freed from his mortal coil
A seemingly perfect game for the Switch… that’s not available on the Switch. 😕
Buying this Friday. Can't wait.
Looks extremely fun and beautiful. Would love to play on the Switch someday.

3 hours in and it’s terrific
It's now on game pass everyone 😁
just imagine playing this on the Steam Deck. 🤩

more games like this?
Looks really cool. Wished it would come out on playstation.
Buy an xbox or a pc , alot of games are stuck on ps no one complains , atleast you have 2 options ( 3 if you count steam deck )
Now free on ps :)
Hoping this'll eventually come to Game Pass, then i'll play through there
What’s reply value like
Intro looked like Child of light!
Zelda meets dark souls= deaths door
One of the BEST games of this year
Quiet melancholy? Hauntingly beautiful? Did Sylvia Plath write this review?
Reminds me so much of Tunic
New legend is born. Another great intro into metroidvania arena
This or the ascend?
Looks like one of the ducks from the kurzgesagt videos.
So basically it's a prettier less cryptic version of Hyperlight Drifter
