Says he's not a Doctor Who fan. Goes on to display a staggering amount of knowledge of Doctor Who. Is this just something you absorb if you're British?
The cybermen are one of the most well known Doctor Who enemies - along with the Daleks, and the Master (albeit the latter has rarely appeared in the new series, apart from one notable trilogy of episodes). Likewise, the actors who have played the Doctor are well known - particularly given how major the BBC is. He's clearly not a modern Doctor Who fan, however, or he'd know who River Song/Dr Song is.
I've enjoyed all the Doctors thus far. Part of the point of changing actors is to give each Doctor a feel of his own. Eccleston was more serious due to the time war having just happened, hardening him. Tennant was a more technical, comedic take. Smith is, in my opinion, the most emotional of the three. Every actor portrays the Doctor in a different way - that's what keeps the show fresh and entertaining over endless iterations.
I actually think Telltale should lend a hand to the BBC and try making a Doctor Who game. After all, Doctor Who and the Walking Dead game are quite similar to me.
@@Irraptured I mean, Telltale of X years ago probably would've made a good Doctor Who game, before they over-saturated their own market and suicided their company. >__>
I'm a Dr Who fan, but do I need to say I am? I mean majority of people here probably are. Anyway, I feel if TellTale got the rights to a DW game, it would be great. Maybe not as good as The Walking Dead, but at least as good as the Back to the Future game, which was still really good.
The effects might not be great but with Neil Gaiman and Steven Moffat writing for the show a fair few people (including me) would disagree on the 'bad writing' opinion. Also Matt Smith freakin' ROCKS. And River Song is a BAMF.
There will never be a Doctor Who game where, if you 'die' you regenerate instead, and the way the Doctor reacts (cutscenes, dialogue) changes based on your incarnation
you can't really judge them like who's better and who's worse... between such amazing two actors. to me Tennant's doctor was familiar and affectionate, he was amazing when even the things were getting sad and blue. and Smith's doctor was outgoing and effervescent, so suitable for adventure series.
RIP. Its 2022 and your still missed. (I wish UA-cam would stop making me change my memorial comment every 20ish videos or so. when did they implement this new annoyance?)
I hate when he says things are barely puzzles when infact he simply doesnt understand it. Its like when i heard someone say the sleeping dogs hacking mechanic was random/ridiculously hard to use
I am a fan of Moffat and Matt Smith. Regardless of whether you like Moffat or not, I think most people think he's a fairly good Doctor. I can see why people don't like Moffat, however. He has a bit of a problem with continuity. The rules of his universe change quite regularly, sometimes within in the same episode. And he has a habit of writing such complex plots that the details kind of get lost in the noise. Suffice to say that sometimes the needs of the plot outweigh the needs of the logic.
I wish people would actually take the time to watch other TB videos rather than just dip into one then complain. 'He talks to much at the menu blah blah blah he talks all through it blah blah'. Pisses me off that if they read the description and watched other videos they'd realise its a) a critique and b) its how he does things. Its as bad as watching Yahtzee video's and people moaning about the lack of a numbered score or that he always picks holes in it. Rant over.
i like the new dr. who series for the most part. some stories lines i did get quite annoyed but i started with the new series. recently i have been watching alot of the older series and for the most part fell in love with the series again. favorite classic who episode so far is ark in space and pirate planet.
I like all the three Doctors from the new series. They are getting younger after Chris Eccleston, but are fine. I don´t care too much about the low budget effects. One good thing is the big mystery is solved by the end of season, whie in american series they tend to get prolonged forever.
I hate the new series and totally agree with you on that which is why I've stopped watching it. I loved watching the old series and was okay with the new series until, as you said, it went batshit mad. Jon Pertwee was a awesome doctor as was Tom Baker. On the game, argh, I hate the character. Damn Dr Song is horrible. Talking about plotholes she's a huge one herself. I've been tempted, but I think it's proven how shit the game is.
No offense, but you are nonsensical. First off, if you're not a Doctor Who fan, then why the hell are you even playing a Doctor Who game? Secondly, Doctor Who has bad special effects? Wow, are you blind? Doctor Who has brilliant special effects. See 'The Day Of The Doctor' for the best special effects. Thirdly, it takes you nearly 3 minutes of blabbering to get past the main menu. After your comments at the main menu, I couldn't watch any further. Please keep your ignorance to yourself.
No problem, and to answer your question, to me they don't really scream mo cap, I think it would be hard to tell if you weren't told or didn't already know, but they are pretty smooth animations imo :)
Sorry I think I worded that a little incorrectly. you're correct about the name however it doesn't "smooth textures". It correct line quality in meshes (as all AA does) but it also improves the mesh quality during the shader phase. Which I think is what you were confused about.
suppose its coz mo-cap is an animation technique, where the actor wears a black overall with those white dots on them and the motion camera captures the actions the actor performs
did you notice something about the level layout? After TB climbed down the ladder and ran to the left, that was the same area he had just run through. The Doctor could have just walked between those two pipes and been in the next area without needing to do that puzzle or any of that wall jumping.
I'm curious.. If you could decide, how WOULD a Doctor Who game be? Like the coming Watch Dogs and your control of the world's technology? The potential of Mirror's Edge and how you, basically, run? Or a spin off, with completly different characters?
It's a shame nobody has made a Dr Who adventure/rpg, the potential is massive: Space/Time exploration, problem solving solving and intelligent questing. But it would be difficult to know who to trust with such a project.
I've got something to tell you about the only liking of the 9th doctor. When he regenerates, his personality changes. So the 11th doctor's personality is not the script writers fault.
Note the fact that he said that he like the old stuff, not the new stuff. There was a couple years break from the old concurrent series and the new series. I like both personally but TB did not say he hated ALL of dr.who.
There was a pretty decent episodic Dr. Who adventure game released last year. Btw TB, I don't know if the genre is your thing or not but there are some recent point-n-click titles you should look into imo (Daeponia, The Book of Unwritten Tales). Some WTF Is... videos might help those titles to get some attention.
My friend and I played this game. We finished it in 3 hours and found it to be relatively good/average. Then again we're both American fans of the show. We found the final boss to be frustratingly hard but rewarding when you finally defeated it.
I'm afraid I haven't seen Matth Smith's yet, so my opinion may change. But Eccleston's was the first Doctor I ever saw (and you just can't beat that), plus I just found the kinda hardened-hearted survivor of war that he and Tennant's early 10th Doctor had to be exceptionally good. It's a same Eccleston only stayed around for 1 season (anyone know what was up with that, btw, I have my own theory but I'm not sure if it's a valid reason). That's just all my opinion, of course.
I liked the music for this game. It just stood out to me, being slightly different from the theme of the show (I assume from what little I've seen) and having some nice twists.
Well the Dr Who license can actually be turned into a great game. Puzzles, Platforming, Dialog, Clue Finding, Exploration, Action Depending on characters, Horror depending on what is involved, RPG, etc. Just like many long running scifi series its hit and miss and explores interesting ideas which of course will not always be successful.
It is more of the reasoning of.. why do we have a fully featured menu system for a 2.5D game when a full bore 3D experience has a minimal options menu? It is quite backwards when you look at it.
Walking with dinosaurs had a game?!?!? THAT WAS MY CHILDHOOD, I WATCHED THE FIRST TAPE IN THE TWO TAPE SET 50 TIMES BEFORE FINDING OUT THERE WAS A SECOND TAPE!!!!
I actually liked the old Cyberman voices a lot more, they pretty much sounded like they'd inhaled a lot of helium and were trying to speak in a wind tunnel. XD
TB... Sorry, mate, but you clearly have not spent enough time here in the states. Compared to the load of crap we have here (16 and pregnant, Honey Booboo, need I say more?) Doctor Who, even with the corny writing and the so-so effects, is a absolute GODSEND. BBC as a whole, actually, is a Godsend for the states, I'm glad I fork out the.. whatever I spend a month on my phone and cable bill to be able to watch it.
River song is the daughter of amy and rory pond, who got married a year and a half ago. She married the doctor because she is a time traveler and time travel makes everything work out in the end. Cheesy, but still fun.
I geeked out when TB used the phase "What, what?" (19:40 - a catch phase used by the 10th doctor) and "Apparently not" (20:27 - commonly used by River Song) Are these common British phases or did TB do this intentionally? Is TB a closet Whovian?
I would like to remind everyone saying The Walking Dead. That's a graphic novel(a comic). The show is based off of the aforementioned graphic novel. The game is based off of the graphic novel, too. The game is not based off of the show.
Yea they have a lot of character. It doesn't seem as if they have blending software going on though, very hard transitions between animations, which is an issue ^^. It is infact entirely possible that what we see here isn't mo cap though. We've had a lot of guest teachers from the animation industry, and most of the time mo cap will be used strictly as reference, publishers just like to call it mo cap anyway because it "sells" I guess.
For the most part I like the latest incarnation. My first Doctor was Matt Smith so I'm probably more forgiving than others. I will say this though. I'm 29 and I consider myself a very level headed person. The Weeping Angels episodes gave me nightmares.
When you said you were nite a Who fan, you crushed my poor feelings TB! :( But you're right, even as a massive Whovian, this games is terrible minus Eleven's witty remarks. By the way, Dr. River Song :)
Says he's not a Doctor Who fan.
Goes on to display a staggering amount of knowledge of Doctor Who.
Is this just something you absorb if you're British?
He said that he doesn't like the new series. I agree with him.
Yes, yes it is.

Finally someone who liked Eccleston better!
He seemed fitting for the role to me, that's me though.
That may be, but Matt Smith still did a fantastic job of portraying The Doctor. He was pretty easy to warm up to for me :)
I respect his opinion, but when he said he hated the new doctor who I did feel my eye twitch and the vein in my head pulse.
SteamPunkBanditQuestypants I wasnt a big fan of this doctor. David Tennant was quite good however
He hates everything. In fact, i think he makes this episode just to hate other stuff than video games.
Jose Luis Rodriguez That sounds..Honestly quite stupid, your logic is flawed.
I actually think Telltale should lend a hand to the BBC and try making a Doctor Who game. After all, Doctor Who and the Walking Dead game are quite similar to me.

best bit being the cybermen having rubber boots and being all sneaky sneaky instead of stomping around like the new ones

I nearly went "nope, we've never had a great tv show game" then I remembered the fun I once had with the Simpsons hit and run..
Says he doesn't like David Tennant.
You're dead to me.

Doctor Who is a British television show about an immortal time-traveler who takes random people across the universe with him.
do you need to know about the series before playing the game?
Everyone always argues which Doctor is the best, but I like them all, they've all got good qualities
I'm curious.. If you could decide, how WOULD a Doctor Who game be? Like the coming Watch Dogs and your control of the world's technology? The potential of Mirror's Edge and how you, basically, run?
Or a spin off, with completly different characters?
I do believe it's the item who is named after him and he who is named after a character in a Terry Pratchett Discworld novel.
It's a shame nobody has made a Dr Who adventure/rpg, the potential is massive: Space/Time exploration, problem solving solving and intelligent questing. But it would be difficult to know who to trust with such a project.
"Plot holes"
And with this, Steven Moffat glances out of his window and smirks for he knows his job has been completed.
Don't you ever, EVER talk shit about Rose. Best companion of the new series.
Also, dat tongue-to-teeth smile.
Totalbicuit talks about Doctor Who. My life is complete.
I've got something to tell you about the only liking of the 9th doctor. When he regenerates, his personality changes. So the 11th doctor's personality is not the script writers fault.
Total biscuit should be doing these wtf series from games which people may be interested atleast a bit.
god dammit tb, i was drinking hot chocolate when you said 5:41, and the i got hot chocolate all over me from laughing :(
Note the fact that he said that he like the old stuff, not the new stuff. There was a couple years break from the old concurrent series and the new series. I like both personally but TB did not say he hated ALL of dr.who.

i love how when he says no he sounds like emperor palpatine lol
TOTALBISCUIT! YOU ARE NAMED AFTER AN ITEM IN LEAGUE OF LEGENDS! It's a new item called: total biscuit of regenaration!!!
The music in-game makes me feel like I'm watching a star wars episode.
Oh... I didn't try to kill him, I just locked him in a TARDIS cage.
TB: I don't really like Doctor Who.
Me: Say it ain't so, TB!
TB: But I did like Christopher Eccleston.
Me: You are forgiven.
The Puzzle difficulty also changes game play, with whether the Cybermen are in the background in medium, or the fore ground in hard. I think...
He moved from the UK a few months ago and after watching Doctor Who my whole life I'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about.
My friend and I played this game. We finished it in 3 hours and found it to be relatively good/average. Then again we're both American fans of the show. We found the final boss to be frustratingly hard but rewarding when you finally defeated it.

That's just all my opinion, of course.
Christopher Eccleston is by far the best modern Doctor Who. I miss those days :(
Telltale should make a Doctor WHO game, they could totally pull it off.
His love of Dr. Who was mentally retconned upon consumption of that Twinkie.
Dr.Who Puzzle Platformer. Wow, I never thought the day would come.
I liked the music for this game. It just stood out to me, being slightly different from the theme of the show (I assume from what little I've seen) and having some nice twists.
Yes! Yes!!!! Eccleston was my favorite Doctor too!!! The Ninth Doctor is the best!!
You have excellent tastes, TB!
whats the song in the outro?
Well the Dr Who license can actually be turned into a great game. Puzzles, Platforming, Dialog, Clue Finding, Exploration, Action Depending on characters, Horror depending on what is involved, RPG, etc. Just like many long running scifi series its hit and miss and explores interesting ideas which of course will not always be successful.
have you watched the original series?
what's up with the enderman eyes in the starting screen?
were those lines just copy/pasted from the show? because a lot of them seem out of context and like i've heard them before.
I hate how he managed to miss that he crossed a corridor he was in earlier at 9:52
That's actually a pretty neat feature.
theres actually a loop in that which would allow more incarnations but not going to go into it.
After I heard what you said about doctor who I decided to through my computer out the window
It's likely been said before but the point and click style that the Walking Dead game was made with seems perfect for a Dr. Who game.
Doctor Who is about the only game where hats make sense to me.
It is more of the reasoning of.. why do we have a fully featured menu system for a 2.5D game when a full bore 3D experience has a minimal options menu?
It is quite backwards when you look at it.
Oh yeah, remember that one episode where the Doctor went free running across a city? Yeah, me neither.
second most british video ever, right behind the tie of every electicbeast video ever
i remember seeing this on steam and said:" TB is so going to do this"
Just remember TB... Dont let him eat pears... He HATES pears.
Walking with dinosaurs had a game?!?!? THAT WAS MY CHILDHOOD, I WATCHED THE FIRST TAPE IN THE TWO TAPE SET 50 TIMES BEFORE FINDING OUT THERE WAS A SECOND TAPE!!!!
? I live in America (And am a proud American) and I absolutely adore the Doctor Who series.
I actually liked the old Cyberman voices a lot more, they pretty much sounded like they'd inhaled a lot of helium and were trying to speak in a wind tunnel. XD
TB... Sorry, mate, but you clearly have not spent enough time here in the states. Compared to the load of crap we have here (16 and pregnant, Honey Booboo, need I say more?) Doctor Who, even with the corny writing and the so-so effects, is a absolute GODSEND.
BBC as a whole, actually, is a Godsend for the states, I'm glad I fork out the.. whatever I spend a month on my phone and cable bill to be able to watch it.
Telltale has to get their hands on this license, they can do wonders with Doctor Who.
River song is the daughter of amy and rory pond, who got married a year and a half ago. She married the doctor because she is a time traveler and time travel makes everything work out in the end. Cheesy, but still fun.

Are these common British phases or did TB do this intentionally? Is TB a closet Whovian?
Totalbiscuit the story of Doctor Who is meant to be confusing and silly! that's the whole idea of the doctor since day 1
I think David Tennant was a good doctor, because he brought so much emotion to the character.
"deus ex machina" is the key phrase when talking about doctor who :P
"Animation's not too bad. Looks like it was really nicely motion captured"
WHAT?!
FXAA is full screen anti-aliasing and it's relatively new. but popular due to decrease in toll on hardware.
I for one enjoy a bit of the Dr. Who from time to time
hahahaha I was actually hoping that it would take you back just because your reaction is much more entertaining
*reads the title* "This will be some serious bullshit" *sees how long the video is* *O.o*
I would like to remind everyone saying The Walking Dead. That's a graphic novel(a comic). The show is based off of the aforementioned graphic novel. The game is based off of the graphic novel, too. The game is not based off of the show.
When I heard TB's description of doctor who, I was like what!! But then I remembered he was THE CYNICAL BRIT
TB fails horribly at something - "THAT'S A HORRIBLE MECHANIC!"
Why do I continue to watch these videos?
She's got a PHD in archaeology, specifically she's the world's premiere expert on the Doctor.
The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure that a lot of those lines were cut and pasted out of the TV episodes...
what lore issues do u have?
That buggy AI is the most entertaining feature of the game. lol
That wave matching mechanic is used in Star Trek Online when scanning anomolies. Just FYI.
Doctor Who and TotalBiscuit.And fight between them. Yay, Judgement Day!
Yea they have a lot of character. It doesn't seem as if they have blending software going on though, very hard transitions between animations, which is an issue ^^. It is infact entirely possible that what we see here isn't mo cap though. We've had a lot of guest teachers from the animation industry, and most of the time mo cap will be used strictly as reference, publishers just like to call it mo cap anyway because it "sells" I guess.
She absorbed a bunch of background time radiation whilst being conceived on the tardis.
Also, his idea of tragedy is throwing as many people off a building as he can get away with.
For the most part I like the latest incarnation. My first Doctor was Matt Smith so I'm probably more forgiving than others. I will say this though. I'm 29 and I consider myself a very level headed person. The Weeping Angels episodes gave me nightmares.
When you said you were nite a Who fan, you crushed my poor feelings TB! :(
But you're right, even as a massive Whovian, this games is terrible minus Eleven's witty remarks. By the way, Dr. River Song :)
