The Surge just came out on this month's Humble Monthly bundle, and this was the first place I came to help me decide if I wanted to play it. Thank you TB. Forever a legend.
It's so strange after many years of listening to TB to come back to his footage. I started playing The Surge only recently. You will be missed TB, you are remembered by people every single day.
I miss you, man. So many afternoons watching your videos, enjoying myself with your amazing sense of humor and learning english from you vas vocab. I hope you are in peace. Thank you TB, you made a huge part of my teenagehood much, much better.
Got it for €4.99 in the Xbox Live sales. This was a really great video by Total Biscuit on this game ! Now I look forward to playing it even more !! :) Thank you Total Biscuit for all your great content ! Although I didn't watch that many of your videos over the years. I'm still grateful for what you gave and I'm sad that a young lad like yourself had to pass away so young. May God Bless you on your journey and I hope to see you in heaven, God willing....RIP brother....
Bought this game quite a long time ago, never got around to playing it. Saw The Surge 2 release, thought I'd try the original, and get a reminder of why I bought it in the first place, TB's recommendation. Really Truly Miss you TB
I can't wait until "Souls-like" becomes as broad a term as "Rogue-like". Yes, there will be games that pull off the mechanics poorly, but to have a plethora of options to choose from amongst games with these mechanics will be an all around win for gamers.
with the surge 2 about to come about i was searching for reviews for the first game as I never played it and this was a welcome voice to find thank you
TB: "You might be thinking - this looks easy!" The Surge protagonist: 22:16 I miss TB, but I am glad I could visit him in the past to see if I should get his while it's on sale.
I am really down with this game being as clunky as most Soulslike games. And that goes for Souls games themselves. Nioh is my favorite because its combat is actually at a proper pace rather than artificially slowed down. And with The Surge, the slow, heavy wind ups of attacks don't feel too ridiculous because you're wearing a shit ton of of heavy metal on you while trying to swing a heavy weapon. I say this because weapons like greatsword and armor like full plate in real life do not actually take away your speed and movement as much as they do in soulslike games.
old post but ... but what would you call a metroidvaniagame then? exploration-and-backtracking actiongame doesn't exactly roll of the tongue does it? neither is it descriptive enough to specifically categorize that style/genre of game
Black Cerberus boss fight is just cheap However Lords of the fallen is slowed down so much Jesus Christ my short sword may as well be smoughs fking hammer
Really don'ta gree about the weapons in Lords of The Fallen feeling not right weight wise. I think the combat system was pretty solid, fun combat and good feeilng weapons.
So reassuring to hear TB`s voice again, I needed a review & landed here, still relevant still missed , RIP & thanks again..

I miss TB!
did he died
Sadly, yes :(
We all miss...
Or at least those with soul miss him.
Never watched a single video of his all the way through so I honestly don't really miss him
Well you didn't have to say that. I watch lots of his videos and they are better than your idiot UA-camrs you like
Still helping the gaming community! Best place to watch reviews after all these years
Just beat the Surge yesterday. Now i get to hear TB talk about it. Good deal.
RIP TB I miss ya every day man
Miss this dude. Sorry to see you go, sir.
If only he is around to review the Surge 2. I miss him. :'-(
Here because of the Steam sale as well. I miss TB :(
Rest in Peace you wonderful man, you
I miss this legend...
Just finished The Surge for the first time, good enough reason watch some of TB's old stuff! RIP.
Miss you John

Hello old friend.
Glad to hear you again.
genna, I liked this vid while he was still alive. I miss him. All the best to you
I got it for cheap on a sale and I am thouroughly enjoying it for what it is.
I wonder if there is a list of thematic tangents in TB's videos. This one here on genre, clones, and iteration is quite juicy.
Here because the game is free on ps-plus. Miss ya Biscuit.
My Grandma has to do Chemotherapy too. I feel you bro. Love the vid. I subbed too. Great commentary. And I'm not just saying that either.
He sadly passed away. 😪
Wow! What a thorough review! Good job!

Have you ever worn full plate? Real full plate, not replica? There's a huge weight difference, and it vastly affects your speed.
Wonderful video. I love you TB
Rip
Souls-like is subgenre of action rpg. Mad respect for TB not using the term Soulsborne, I despise that it's a commonly accepted term. Miss you bud.
Why do you despise it? It sounds pretty good. Certainly better than "Sekiroborne".

Rather than watch a video for one freaking hour, you should go and play for an hour. :)
well, not sure why you call The surge a Dark souls Clone xD. its almost everthing different from it
Save game for cry babys...
Thanks I was crying the whole time
