yeah, never heard of it. (covers up playtimes of Skyrim and Skyrim Special Edition, my Nexus download history, and the endorsement list of my old nexus account I got locked out of because my 2 factor authentication app reset itself.)
@whoaskedyoutolookatthisn ow that they are making their own assets and not reusing Bethesda assets, which is what gets the project canceled more than futurama has been canceled. I'm sure Bethesda will co.e up with another reason to sue, they have to protect their IP, it's part of owning an IP and keeping it.
@assm0nk the Mario guy and the grey beard guy are well known. Admittedly they aren't tentpole actors like Bean or Stewart. Fallout4 had the og wonder woman
For games like Morrowind or Oblivion, a series of reviews for those games may be warranted. Main questline, each faction and their respective questlines, etc. could be the subject of their own videos.
I still remember the Just Cause 2 demo that came with an Xbox magazine. It was basically a repayable timed demo that let you do anything you wanted within the world alongside a mission or two from the campaign, once that time was up of course, you could always do it again and explore within that limit. Best advertisement demo for an open world game, just letting you have fun and yearn for more, needless to say, when I had enough money from working when I was 15, it was one of the first games I bought with my own money.
Yeah, it was something like 45 minutes or whatever, wasn't it? I think there was one or two super early on missions, but other than that it was just "go nuts"
The Legend of Zelda Collectors Edition for nintendo gamecube had a similar demo for Wind Waker. You got three saves at different points throughout the game and had 20 minutes to do what ever.
0:45 Speaking of remembering the first level of games 😅. Back when FF7 came out and I was 8, it took my forever to finish disc 1. By then my disc 2 got destroyed and couldn't play it. So I played disc 1 over and over and over and over. Finally found online saves and played Disc 3 and, to this day, when I replay FF7, disc 2 feels like such a chore while Disc 1 and 3 are an amazing nostalgia trip.
I tend to watch reviews and reactions here and there, and this is what it looks like on my eyes. While searching for something to see, a name is what makes us click a video. Because we like to see how someone else react to certain experience we had. For me it started looking for final fantasy X where boys and girls cry at certain moments. Then used to go to "first time hearing x song. Either lyrics or rhythm impressions. While watching a special opera singer react to game music was really nice, because this guy was not a common youtuber, the guy was a former pro. (We like to have indirect recognition) Somehow while listening to game music we tend to click on what we know and avoid new stuff (IMO because we would like to listen first, play it first and not after, even when we won't even play)(I think you know how this works by now) People like to suggest without caring of the success of the video. But from my perspective, music reviewing is better in two phases. The first play and then the analysis. On games I feel it's 3. 1. First playthrough (feel the game) 2. Watch a playthrough from someone else (understand the lore and game) 3. Full game analysis. (Understanding of what, why, where) That's from my perspective. Anyways thanks for the videos, and have a great day.
I've only watched i think 3-4 hours of various elder scrolls reviews from Morrowind to Skyrim with separate reviews for the DLC for each. I'm also in the process of watching a 3 hour review of Skyrim that's apparently the first of 4 3-hour videos each focusing on a different aspect of the game.
Demo levels I remember vividly: Spyro, Medievil, Dino crisis, T'ai Fu: Wrath of the tiger (had to look the name up as had no idea, but the gameplay is etched into my 10yr old mind). Time were different. You had much fewer games and those you did have you played the shit out of. Toca touring rally was our (shared playstation with my brother) first game following by G-Police which was so bloody hard as a kid. Another demo I played loads was downhill mountain biking. I'm going to nestle into some nostalgia now, thanks.
OMG PLEASE do Legend of Dragoon! I remember playing it on a display console at Best buy as a kid but I never got to own it. Please do it on Josh Strife Plays!
I didn't have demo disks, but I had demos of other games on games that I bought. There was an Empire Earth 2 demo that I played a lot that only had the renaissance period in it, and I ended up getting the full game years later
Same here, I thought it was so cool that there were cannons and musketeers and whatnot when that trash old game AoE2 (you may have heard of it) only had bows and swords. Populous: the beginning was another RTS I loved. It went the other way back in fictional time to cavemen worshiping obelisks and an OP as F shaman who could cast absolutely epic spells. Played thru it again recently, loved it, but not as hard as I remember. the later planets you conquer are definitely a challenge tho
I really like your main channel Josh but then I noticed on your plays channel there are so many more games I played and interested in, now a third! Need to check out some videos in this one
omg, I loved the old OPSM, I still have my old demo discs, little disc book binders full. nostalgia. I actually reminisced about the Silent Bomber demo while I watched your video, thanks for bringing those memories back.
Aww. you mentioned Legend of Dragoon. One of my fave games of all time. So much nostalgia and great storytelling about the winglies and the dragoons, And then Rose and Zieg, Would love to see you play that.
There 's basically like this big content war and platforms are demanding content creators produce mass quantity of content which looks great to shareholders and investors. Even if quality content is better in the like long term: many users are trained to just consume and will drop out completely of watching your videos. They are not stable viewers as such, but can be really profitable if you can handle the pressure. This leads content towards things like reality TV over the the more informative or well written shows, IMO. TLDR, humans are mostly short-term thinkers and watch quick and instant gratification that leaves them overstimulated and content creators overstressed
If it's about pleasing the algorithm, would making it several videos be worthwhile? a [Game] after 10 hrs video focusing on first impressions, a video on character progression and story setup in the midgame, etc, and then conclude with a final review. To be honest, I'd love more than one video for a single game.
I'll tell you what I remember having massive fun with. Conqueror A.D 1086. For many years I couldn't remember for the life of me what the game was called, but finally, someone came to the rescue. I played that one to the death. What amazing memories I have to this day...
Speaking of JSP reviews If Josh stops by this comment section & reads this- I'd like to remind him he promised to cover WH40k- Dawn of War in that one video about the warhammer mobile game
Lufia 2 doesn't have many reviews, perfect candidate is it not. Josh just perfectly described the 3 TES games. 3 good RPG bad action 4 Sean Bean and Patrick Stewart 5 good action bad RPG Tremendous
Josh, have you considered making a serial version of certain games? i.e. Morrowind review 1/15 or something, and piecemeal review elements of the game. It would add some overhead to planning out the series, but could be strategy to follow
I had a lot of the old demo disks I had some of the same demos you played. Gran Tursmo 2, Parapa the Rapper, Armored Core, Blasto, Bushido Blade, Colony Wars, Dead or Alive, Medal of Honor, Monkey Hero, Monster Rancher, saga Frontier, Speed Racer, Spiderman, Star Ocean and Test Drive were some of my favorites.
Everytime a new review comes out I watch it, and then rewatch a previous one. Ive seen them all a few times at this point. Thats how interesting and relaxing they are
Akuji the Heartless was a great game. I really enjoyed it. My Demo Disc moment was Hot Shots Golf, my brother and I used to play that religiously every weekend. :D
We played the first level of ratched and clank on a demo disc like it was a whole game. We managed to get the expensive weapons as well because we played it for such a long time
Even with a longer production time it's bold to project these Elder Scrolls games won't attract as much an audience. Despite multiple releases there's a reason as to why Skyrim is still relevant.
Morrowind's combat system is misunderstood and horribly underrated. It's weird and unintuitive, but once you understand it, it's much more enjoyable than the hit-sponge marathons of Oblivion and Skyrim IMO.
How about a review for Alice?,it has one of my favorite quotes "when is a croqeut mallet like a combat club,I'll tell you....whenever you want it to be".I had the cheshire cat as a screen saver for ages and had to take it off because my mom came home from work one day while I was out and came into my room tried to turn my bedroom light on and it popped and the cheshire cats big bloodstained grin came up on my screen and scared the absolute shit out of her.
Man, this really makes me want to go back and play ‘Grabbed by the Ghoulies’ on the Original Xbox. Have so many memories playing the first few levels at my grandma’s house whenever we would visit
【Shades Finnish Pirates】I actually watch these videos of yours since you really deive deep into the game, i came out of every video feeling like i know every notch from a game i never have tried (or have tried ages ago) and i must add that you have good sense of humor & you have actually a pleaseant personality 7:16 i'll admit it your a good looking man too, without kissing the arse maybe a friendly encouraging slap but thats it xD nah just putting the truth out there while joking and your teacher & actor backround really makes your channel shine. Nailed review, i just agree like and idiot to a man wiser than me by aeons :S
I have a friend who, when first meeting them in a TeamSpeak call, I broke the ice with because when they were talking with a mutual friend about a game they vaguely remembered from their childhood, wondering if it even existed, or only dreamt it, 'a really bad pacman clone' and humming like 6 notes of the music, I recognized it immediately as being The Incredible Coneman, from the Net Yaroze stuff on those demo discs. Mostly because those 6 notes were like half of the song, it was very repetitive shoutout to Demo Disc 42 (PAL version), for catalyzing a friendship
I feel like breaking a large review into "Parts" is the best middle ground. It allows a content creator to release a video/update in smaller intervals, and it still gives the viewers a large amount of content with the only inconvenience being to click or wait for the next video.
JOSH I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE DINO CRISIS VIDEO. I literally sent it to all my friends and took the time to type out the quote of my favorite joke of yours there. “That sounds like a really bad system!..” “Heh, it is.. a lot of people have died.” 🤣🤣🤣
As a random person you dont know who enjoys your takes id love to see how you feel about Legend of mana, being a game riding off the snes success of Secrets of Mana. Its a very niche game i love that requires far too much knowledge about mechanics that arent readily introduced to players. Keep up the great work!
FF1 and 2 are short games, can be beaten in 10-15 hours, the story is pretty barebones so it shouldnt take long. I understand the time limitations though, i wanted to suggest dark cloud review but the game takes a while to complete Jade empire was pretty good i played it on the pc.
Would really like a Jade Cocoon video, I remember having it on a demo disk when i was a kid, and just replaying the first hour again and again. Damn I remember being so content with just all the demo disks and just replaying the same demo games over and over again. Now I get bored after 3 hours of playing games, even if its something i like and i am enjoying it... i just kinda cant go back... then buy a new game and repeat the process....
I do this crap all the time. MMO's I'll make a hundred alts and play the tutorial areas over and over and over. Or Skyrim, just make new characters and do helgen over and over and over
@@jbidd135 yeah anything with a class system or starting customization, i always make new characters over and over again, because what if this class is more fun? etc.etc.
You did the same thing with me with Jade Cocoon ahah, I used to get up at like 5/6am before school and play the demo with my brother, Used to see how many combinations of monsters I could make, really great game
I have a demo disk memory I'd love someone to try and identify. I don't have many details but what I can remember is a central building with green grass courtyard that was walled in pretty closely, and I think a modernish city as the 2d backdrop far far away. you could go into the building but I don't remember much about it, I think it all may have been a church and graveyard? I don't remember much about the character although I want to say he was almost like the noid (take that with a grain of salt) and could move quickly and jump and such. I believe the game had platforming and enemy attacking type gameplay in a 3d world. I also do not think it was the game Medievil as I have other memories of that one not from demo disks.
There was a fighting game I played on a demo disc, it was called Destrega and I remember it being the most unique fighting game I had seen at the time. The battles took place on an open map and your characters used some type of magic.
review rpgs in parts so you can release them as a series = more videos per week. smaller, more digestible vids. ... one for story, one for combat, etc.
I remember every month on the first Saturday I'd go pick up a game magazine from the newsagents. Like holy hell this unlocked deep memories I wish I could return too because some covers went hard
I could swear I have seen a long and detailed review of morrowind by Josh, but apparently I am hallucinating and that never happened. Now, even though I have never played morrowind before, I have vivid and detailed images of the game and the systems in my head.
You know what game does not have enough reviews, Deep Rock Galactic would be a shame if there were more of those. Coincidentally its currently on steam sale for only 9bucks
I know that 1 level feeling about Demo disk's, I had a lot of them because I bought gaming magazines to make a 2 hour commute bearable. There were times I had trouble getting through the 1st level or third (in my recollection, which may or not be true, it was often the third level) of the full game because I was already so sick of it.
Josh saying The Imperium instead of The Empire in Morrowind shows that loyalty to The Emperor burns in his heart.
3😅😮😅😮
Fr the mongral dogs of the empire!
“Heroes guild” lol
I'm with you Josh. We need more Skyrim content on UA-cam
yeah, never heard of it. (covers up playtimes of Skyrim and Skyrim Special Edition, my Nexus download history, and the endorsement list of my old nexus account I got locked out of because my 2 factor authentication app reset itself.)
MY CHILDHOOD WAS PS1 DEMO DISCS! A particularly memorable one had blasto, jersey devil, gex 2, tekken 3 and tomb raider. The best nostalgia
I would watch a 5 hour review of Morrowind, honestly. I'd watch a 5 hour review of any RPG Josh plays.
Lol im working though he playthrough of oblivion RN lpl
His experience with those PS1 demos is like my experience with monthly PS Plus games for the PS4. Many were forgettable but many were golden

he is waiting for Skyblivion, like all of us, and then he combines both of them into a 25/10

@@Nobody-vr5nl Exactly. Its a doomed project, the developers working on it are either expecting a buyout as a "oblivion remaster" or they are dumb.
his description of Morrowind, Skyrim, and Oblivion is just perfect. "We spent the budget on patrick stewart and sean bean."
Just Skyrim and Oblivion. Morrowind had no big name voice talent other than the ever present Wes Johnson.
@@fareflight2029 who's a big name on skyrim?
"we want everything to stop while they're talking" really got me lmfao
@assm0nk the Mario guy and the grey beard guy are well known. Admittedly they aren't tentpole actors like Bean or Stewart. Fallout4 had the og wonder woman
@@jamesbrealg The og wonder woman was in Morrowind as the female nord, and voiced ocr/nords in Oblivion
OMG JADE EMPIRE YES. You're the first person I've heard ever mention that game on youtube. Such a fantastic piece of work that game was.
For games like Morrowind or Oblivion, a series of reviews for those games may be warranted. Main questline, each faction and their respective questlines, etc. could be the subject of their own videos.
But a 8hr video would be nice also
This is honestly best response
@@wobblysauce those are rookie numbers for Patrician who can easily make multiple 10+hours long videos
@@SpecShadow I said that would be nice... not want I wanted...
@@wobblysauce 8-10 hours long Oblivion reviews give me life. :D I think there's like 3 videos of 3 different channels (two others beside PatricianTV)
I played the hell out of the metal gear solid demo as a kid. Played it over and over. Immediately sold me on that game.
I was just thinking "man, I wish more people talked about anime on the internet"....hope Josh is able to look into this.

Josh mentioning 40 winks brought up a deep memory, didn't even remember the name of the game but the boxart made me remember playing it.
I've already watched a 12h Morrowind review and a 20h Oblivion review... several times... Would watch your take on them for sure!
I've only watched i think 3-4 hours of various elder scrolls reviews from Morrowind to Skyrim with separate reviews for the DLC for each. I'm also in the process of watching a 3 hour review of Skyrim that's apparently the first of 4 3-hour videos each focusing on a different aspect of the game.
Hope you had a great time at Larian studios! Welcome back!
Demo levels I remember vividly: Spyro, Medievil, Dino crisis, T'ai Fu: Wrath of the tiger (had to look the name up as had no idea, but the gameplay is etched into my 10yr old mind).
Time were different. You had much fewer games and those you did have you played the shit out of. Toca touring rally was our (shared playstation with my brother) first game following by G-Police which was so bloody hard as a kid. Another demo I played loads was downhill mountain biking. I'm going to nestle into some nostalgia now, thanks.
OMG PLEASE do Legend of Dragoon! I remember playing it on a display console at Best buy as a kid but I never got to own it. Please do it on Josh Strife Plays!
I'd love to see him review Black & White.
I didn't have demo disks, but I had demos of other games on games that I bought. There was an Empire Earth 2 demo that I played a lot that only had the renaissance period in it, and I ended up getting the full game years later
Same here, I thought it was so cool that there were cannons and musketeers and whatnot when that trash old game AoE2 (you may have heard of it) only had bows and swords.
Populous: the beginning was another RTS I loved. It went the other way back in fictional time to cavemen worshiping obelisks and an OP as F shaman who could cast absolutely epic spells. Played thru it again recently, loved it, but not as hard as I remember. the later planets you conquer are definitely a challenge tho
Upvote for MORROWIND FULL PLAYTHROUGH
If we get more than 100 promises to watch, he cant say no!!
Akuji is tricky to get starting, a bit wonky, but not a long game
I thought 40 Winks was a fever dream because I'd never hear anyone else mention it since I was a kid.
Getting 3-4 hours review videos would be epic
I have a stack of CDs on my shelf right now that includes a bunch of old demo discs from magazines.
I really like your main channel Josh but then I noticed on your plays channel there are so many more games I played and interested in, now a third! Need to check out some videos in this one

God, I'd love it so much if josh played the legend of dragoon
I have a demo disk memory I'd love someone to try and identify. I don't have many details but what I can remember is a central building with green grass courtyard that was walled in pretty closely, and I think a modernish city as the 2d backdrop far far away. you could go into the building but I don't remember much about it, I think it all may have been a church and graveyard?
I don't remember much about the character although I want to say he was almost like the noid (take that with a grain of salt) and could move quickly and jump and such. I believe the game had platforming and enemy attacking type gameplay in a 3d world. I also do not think it was the game Medievil as I have other memories of that one not from demo disks.
The demo (Life of the Party) of Thief 2 was endlessly replayable and enjoyable. Fantastic level!
11 hour long review of Shenmue is what we need. I'm positive there is literally no way to fully review it in less time then that.
There was a fighting game I played on a demo disc, it was called Destrega and I remember it being the most unique fighting game I had seen at the time. The battles took place on an open map and your characters used some type of magic.
That was the basically dragon ball z one, wasn't it?
I didn't know a "Was it any good" review of The Legend of Dragoon was something I wanted until he name dropped it.
You should do a full review of the first 3D Elder Scrolls Game - ELDER SCROLLS ADVENTURE: REDGUARD!
Legend of dragoon is one of the greatest games ever made
review rpgs in parts so you can release them as a series = more videos per week. smaller, more digestible vids. ... one for story, one for combat, etc.
Your impressions for the Morrowind NPCs were excellent. 10/10 review.
You will always be my main monitor content
Never heard of moro wind, I'd watch a video about it
I remember every month on the first Saturday I'd go pick up a game magazine from the newsagents.
Like holy hell this unlocked deep memories I wish I could return too because some covers went hard
The Chrono Trigger video really got me interested, so I'll pick it up if it ever gets ported to Switch!
Oh my god, akuji the heartless! I've been trying to remember what that game was called and I just couldn't, thanks a lot!
We're all 100% here for a 4/5 hour JSH Morrowind review
Not enough people have played Morrowind? What a grand and intoxicating innocence.
If Josh ever has the time to review Dragon Quest 8 on PS2 that would be an amazing video
I could swear I have seen a long and detailed review of morrowind by Josh, but apparently I am hallucinating and that never happened.
Now, even though I have never played morrowind before, I have vivid and detailed images of the game and the systems in my head.
@@loganrogers4560are you stupid?
@@loganrogers4560oh nevermind, i see your comment history. you’re not stupid. you’re completely and utterly braindead.
You know what game does not have enough reviews, Deep Rock Galactic would be a shame if there were more of those. Coincidentally its currently on steam sale for only 9bucks
I know that 1 level feeling about Demo disk's, I had a lot of them because I bought gaming magazines to make a 2 hour commute bearable. There were times I had trouble getting through the 1st level or third (in my recollection, which may or not be true, it was often the third level) of the full game because I was already so sick of it.
