I recall seeing someone promote an ad for the mobile game Dragon city with a Walking Dead cross over were the walking dead characters were designed as dragons or it was a fever dream.
walking dead proceeded to drop one of the most iconic story games ever made and one of if not the best vr game ever made (saints and sinners) and then dipped
in code veronica's defense, it was the original intended Resi 3, while the resi 3 we got, Nemesis, was intended as a spinoff. But contractual BS meant that got switched around.
Call of Duty really fell hard after Black Ops 2. Ghosts was decent, AW and BO3 have their charm, but after it went downhill hard with only MW2019 and Cold War each seeming to bring the series back up... until the next game bringing it back down. All we get are mediocre CoDs now, nothing of actually high quality like back in the golden age of Call of Duty.
Everything after bungie was milked, halo 3 was the ending to halo and reach is a prequel. Halo wasn't milked until 343 came along and made halo 4 and 5. (and infinite)
All things considered, I am happy with the master chief collection on pc. It has my favourite halos with modern graphical quality, frame rate and controls. They can beat the dead horse into mincemeat with the rest of the series for all I care, Reach was the last bungie one anyway
@@robotomize Halo was indeed starting to get milked post Halo 3 with ODST and Reach since Bungie wanted to stop working on Halo after Halo 3, but Microsoft insisted on having two more Halo games before Bungie left, so Bungie made ODST and Reach. While they did have creative interest in doing these two games, it is clear that Bungie wanted to move on from Halo since 2007 and do Destiny. The irony is that Halo can be a franchise that can last a long while, it has that potential to be the equivalent of Star Wars (pre Disney SW era of course, lol) with its main media and expanded universe, but because of how mismanaged it has been since 2011, it has been unable to do so, hence why people feel the franchise has been milked to death, when in reality it just had all of its long lasting potential completely wasted.
Final Fantasy 1 being released on multiple consoles isn't milking it. It's good to have a game be brought to modern consoles. Final Fantasy 7 on the other hand, I agree it has been milked heavily with its spin-offs and mobile games.
I never noticed just how many walking dead games there were, and so few are actually any good to play which is a shame. And you did miss at least one, "The Escapists The Walking Dead", from the prison escape game "The Escapists". I guess the link there is that one season basically took place in a prison? I enjoyed escapists but never played the walking dead version.
I’m so happy all of the Breaking Bad games ended after Criminal Elements. It sucked, and they stopped. A fate like the Walking Dead games is deserved by no tv series. AMC really doesn’t know what they’re doing with video games.
Like a Dragon makes much less as a franchise than Pokemon does, but they are doing full English localization as of the last three titles. That's no excuse.
A big problem with some of these sports games majorly madden is that the companies that make them have a monopoly on that specific sport so 2K has a monopoly on basketball and they actually pushed EA out of the market because EA stopped making NBA live and Madden has a monopoly on football. They signed a deal with the NFL that forced 2K to stop making NFL games. None of these companies have competition so they've gotten lazy, especially madden, EA will straight up release the same game and bring back old content claiming that it's new and remove good content for no reason and we will still buy it because we don't have any other choice. As a madden fan I can tell you we struggle the worst out of all the companies because this game is buggy and slow and some of the way that they run literally create game breaking situations and EA refuses to listen to the fans because as long as they keep bringing in money from MUT they have no reason to care
bro i remember back when you first started making halo videos and i used to watch you all the time. just randomly was thinking of og xbox games and then ended up thinking of you. Good to see your still here and making good content. Thanks for making my day man👍
Golf games and NASCAR games (RIP) coming out every year is crazy to me. It’s literally the same thing every year, same courses, same tracks, basically the same drivers since most contracts are 3 years long.
Looking back at the late PS2 to PS3 days, Sony was definitely going hard on Ratchet and Clank. They had a lot of games on the PS3, had a few on the PSP and they made appearances in stuff like All Stars BR and PS Heroes. Which was kinda bizarre when they just kinda stopped and we didn’t really see Ratchet much until the movie/reboot on PS4, and now Rift Apart. And no new game coming really anytime soon even though supposedly they are making another one right now. One of the few times publishers realized they’re doing too much and tone it back.
Here's my input with Madden for someone who plays it. The reason people keep buying Madden is simple: EA has the monopoly. Per the NFL, they're the only company allowed to release a football game. It's literally our ONLY option.
Most of these are spot-on, but Resident Evil is on such a roll right now with 7, 2 Remake, 3 Remake, Village & 4 remake that I'm happy to get a new Resident Evil BANGER every two years or so. I say on this series as long as the quality is great like it's been...keep bringing 'em on.
unfortunately my childhood hero Spyro was a franchise that had a lot of potential but due to how many companies were involved, it wasn't going well, I'll play everything as a dedicated fan, but I have to admit, Spyro was just pushed too far sometimes
What wasn't mentioned about Fable II Pub Games was how the gold you won in that game could be transferred into Fable II upon its release. Granted it served no other real purpose, but it was helpful at the start.
One you guys missed was Persona 5. I've never played a Persona game before but I got a friend with like every entry and I sat there confused as to why there's like a million Persona 5 games. There's Persona 5, Persona 5 Strikers, Persona 5 Royal, Persona 5 Tactica, etc. I'm pretty sure we're bound to get Persona 5: Paying Off My Student Debt and Persona 5: Going In For A Colonoscopy later this year.
I really enjoy all your content, but may I request some proper audio level mixing between you two, or even just one audio take to the next? I have to keep my volume controller in my hand whenever watching most of these videos.
It would take a 3 hour video to get fully into the street fighter shenanigans... They have an auto attack turn based mobile gacha RPG now. Yeah for street fighter. Plus doing things like releasing the same game multiple times in a row with adjustments so sometimes you'd buy the new game and then they'd release the upgrade (or downgrade lol) next year
I straight up think skyrim is the most overrated game ever made. It just came at the right time to hook the majority of the new coming mainstream console audience when there were very few good rpgs for consoles
Well persona isn't on the list but how EVERY game they release gets like 10 spin offs is just annoying, it ruined persona 5 for me bcs they don't wanna move on from the game and are milking it forever
Minecraft is more milked cause with Java and Bedrock, Bedrock has so much DLCs and crossovers with other medias that Minecraft bedrock is becoming a cashgrab, meanwhile I haven't stopped playing java edition as that's the original
GTA V was milked so hard we didn’t get any story DLC which Rockstar stated they were going to do and is the reason it’s taken so long for VI to come out. Naughty Dog keeps milking the shit out of The Last of Us as well instead of making a new Jak and Daxter game.
Not to be just like promoting other channels in your comments but if you are curious to learn more about nfts and how they're a scam the video "line goes up" by folding ideas is real good
I just found my TWD survival instincts. It wasn't so bad. It's actually decent for what it was. Probably could have been better if not named walking dead.
Bit of topic but i have to share : Few days ago i saw new star wars game to preoreder on ps store , now as star wars enjoyer i was intigued untill i saw it was made by ubisoft ,i felt dissapointed because it will probably end up as an AC Far Cry , .. mishmash with an star wars skin😢
Can't say I agree with your guys' idea of what "milked to death" means at all. That implies a series is doing a lot worse than before because of too many releases, but then two of your biggest examples are Pokemon and CoD, two franchises in their most financially healthy states they've been in a long time. You guys even point out the insane sales numbers of Cold War and S/V compared to their prior entries! (whether more positively received or not) In the very first sentence of the video it's said it's about cannibalizing the brand...but then you don't even stick to that reasoning 🤨
Regarding Final Fantasy, the re-releases seems kinda odd to say its farming whats the alternative have it stuck on ps1 like isnt it a good things we can play it on all the consoles? Skyrim/ Last of Us are different because they add little things each release to entice people to double/triple dip while Final Fantasy for the most part just ports them. That being said the prices are a bit crazy for the pixel remasters so 🤷🏻♂️
I dunno if no one wants to say it, but Persona 5 has been milked to death. Dont get me wrong its my fav PS4, but cmon. Theres like 3 "main" Persona 5 games. Plus the spinoffs, plus the collabs, plus the rereleases, plus Persona X the gacha game. Im so sick and tired of the Phantom Thieves and Persona 5. Im so glad Persona 3 was never milked that bad. Thats my top 2 game of all time
31:40 on the Cod point - you haven't gotten your money worth, the games been bad since GHOST and ADVANCE WARFARE shows that its never improved, just copium, social conformity, friends are fun plenty other shooters exist the only thing is u need to play others than low effort big budget AAA game only way that stops is realizing better exists
I guess? I mean, as a fan of FF I'm still wanting to dig into 16 and Rebirth when they launch on pc. And most their games and spin-offs are at least entertaining for the most part.....the only time i THINK FF dipped badly was 13, 13-2, 13-3, then 15. But after 15 they seemed to learn their lesson and improved on the games.
Still haven’t played the newest cod it really looks too much like mw3 and it was a direct follow up to mw2 and that’s never happened to I knew it would a downgrade when the last one took years to make
I started playing COD 4 MW on the 360 when it first came out......played the rest of the releases on wii and mobile.......I played call of duty with wall crawling and power slides.......wasn't a fan
So as a fan of just dance i will say that it has gone down hill. Now i dont know about 2024 or 2023 but they axed the camera for all systems so you have to use your phone which is not that great or unless your on switch you use the joycon and they did release the game for steam in 2016
Activision has a BAD history of burning out games. Guitar Hero, COD, Tony Hawk, Skylanders just to name a few off the top of my head
Even Spyro before they abandoned it.
Worst thing is Activision only has 1-2 dev teams to work on these games and had bad releases all because of CoD
I recall seeing someone promote an ad for the mobile game Dragon city with a Walking Dead cross over were the walking dead characters were designed as dragons or it was a fever dream.
Nope it happened at a limited time event in 2022 between September and November
Code Veronica was the true resident evil 3. There's a story behind it, but it wasn't a spinoff that milked the franchise
Yep. That doesn’t count. The RE3 we got was the spinoff.
walking dead proceeded to drop one of the most iconic story games ever made and one of if not the best vr game ever made (saints and sinners) and then dipped
The Telltale games? If you say those, then I would not say drop and dip because they came out for years.
walking dead did not dip wdym???
@@ser777XD Not to mention Telltale games are complete ass. It's barely counts as a video game.
@@blad... fucking thank you
in code veronica's defense, it was the original intended Resi 3, while the resi 3 we got, Nemesis, was intended as a spinoff. But contractual BS meant that got switched around.
I see the older Madden games usually on sale for 3 dollars at Walmart
And they probably play better and have more features implemented
Call of Duty really fell hard after Black Ops 2. Ghosts was decent, AW and BO3 have their charm, but after it went downhill hard with only MW2019 and Cold War each seeming to bring the series back up... until the next game bringing it back down. All we get are mediocre CoDs now, nothing of actually high quality like back in the golden age of Call of Duty.
tbh i think IW was fine well single plalyer wise atleast
been mid since ghost just audience refusing to realize it coping every game yet learning nothing
lmao CoD turned shit with BO1. New company, felt completely different in a very negative way.
@@blad... This mans legit just called black ops 1 bad man you really got some guts with a bad take like that
@@LunaPPK a glaringly obvious significant downgrade from its predecessor, yes, BO1 is bad.
halo is definitely a franchise that was milked to death, and then revived just to get milked to death again, and again, in an never ending cycle.
Everything after bungie was milked, halo 3 was the ending to halo and reach is a prequel. Halo wasn't milked until 343 came along and made halo 4 and 5. (and infinite)

@@rattiemoney4310 true
How about some forgotten franchises? Like Lost Planet.
RIP LP, you will be missed.
Honestly at least infinite changed stuff up with their games, cod and Assassins creed just feel so stale now
I know it's a nitpick but I hate Fable's running animation where your character holds their arms super close to their body and barely swings them.
Fable 2's haha! Yeah. I love that game but i agree.

Rocket Sloth, I really enjoyed watching this, so I hit the like button!
I am addicted to your videos
We don’t need any more Call of Duty games!
It's what this channel is doing to this lowercase series, right now!
GTA Online was milked so hard that me didn't get a story dlc. GTA 4 is the best GTA in my humble opinion.
Yeah, it would have been nice to play a story dlc.
Shark cards made them so much that they killed rdr2 online because they couldn't fish for whales
And Online is the reason it’s taken so long for VI to come out.

dude that final fantasy bit is spot on.
I had that Spider-Man plug in play thing I need someone to find it for me never seen it again

U guys deserve more subs and views! Keep up the amazing work 💪
Bizarre to bring up Sonic but not Mario. Certainly tons of Mario games but people tend not to bring them up.
That sandbox game definitely was another zombie game retro fitted to pass as a walking dead game.
Haven’t been able to finish the video but there are also a ton of Persona games
a souls-like game was made & released before this video ended

If Halo ended with 3 or ODST, I think i could live with that
