Got to say I found that a bit weird, given they said that the game was so easy for them when most people found the game hard (they released those modifiers options for the difficulty in the meanwhile even). So they played the entire game without using that and still found it easy?

Watching this nearly 2 years later after playing Control again and wondering if Joe has really completed the game or still thinks the messed up credits is the real ending

@@GameChronicles You can get into the room with the duck once you have a flight. There is a whole in the ceiling. The duck has some very funny and crazy interactions. it kind of runs away from you.
@@lucasuusimaki7429 I suggest you to pay more attention when you look at a video. First, they clearly say that the ending get better after a stop. Second, and more importantly, they talk about the fact that you can continue to play the game after the ending and you can do all the secondary missions, therefore they must have gone through the ending after the credits to know that. Third, there is actual footage (just a glimpse) of the final mission in the video. If they would had stop playing before the true ending their reaction would have been much worse. The ending sucks, yes, the one after the credits, because there are too much loose ends. Some people defend this ending and say that this is about liking the way the story is narrated, reading through documents. But no, there are things that simply are not told, anywhere. There is no final arc for some very interesting characters like Pope and Marshall. There are questions we are supposed to care at the beginning of the story, like about the ambiguous morality of the FBC, and they are not properly addressed.
@@albertorepetto2909 because the story is not self-contained. Remedy confirm that they're going to make DLC to build on the story before the game was even be released. I think they're saving some of those loose ends for the DLC
@@whitbaez1755 And that is surely reasonable and a good point in this conversation. Still, from the perspective of someone that plays, or review, the game, it's hard to not consider this ending somewhat incomplete when you play for the first time.
The credits he shows in the review is a false ending btw, just Remedy being Remedy. The game ends about 20-ish minutes after that, and it's a very theory heavy ending
I love OJ's acting skills. They're half-good half-bad to the point it really is fun to watch him. Please make more dumb skits like these, I laugh like an idiot every time
I’m on the last leg of the game right now.... The stuff I love- *The story. It’s so weird and even though complex at times, in reading the notes much of it is explained. *The combat system. The firearms were a pleasure to use....no sway and could pretty much aim blindfolded. The upgraded abilities allowing you to diversify the combat...such as hurling missiles back at enemies. * Unlocking new abilities. When I unlocked the levitate ability I just went around exploring, trying to find unreachable places. This was so much fun! *The puzzles. I’m a massive fan of puzzles, especially environmental ones. These puzzles were just right, not too easy, not too hard. *The side mission boss battles. They were so much fun and interesting to look at. Like Angry Joe said....why save these amazing boss battles only for the side missions? *The Alan Wake Easter eggs. I loved this. It made me feel how great it would be to have a remake of the original game, released on multiple platforms....then a game that tied together both Alan Wake and Control. This would be epic! The stuff I hated- *The garden variety enemies and main mission bosses. Their design is so bland. You’d think a game that has been built with such imagination would have better enemy designs.....TEW games are a great example of intriguing enemy designs. Also, I wasn’t a fan of being set upon every two minutes by yet more of these run of the mill monsters. It really broke the immersion. *The game is so janky. On a regular PS4 I couldn’t pause without severe frame rate drop. It also crashed a couple of times. *The lighting. Maybe an unpopular opinion.....but I hated the lighting in this game. No amount of adjusted brightness on the PS4 or the TV would fix it. It was either too dark, or too bright....which ties into the... *Ultra red colour scheme representing Hiss. The game is a cakewalk until you have to navigate through a level or boss battle where it’s nothing but police siren red. It was ultra headache inducing and disorientating. I’m sure Hiss could have been represented without this. Anyway.....that’s my two cents. Overall a great game, but flawed. I’m still looking forward to playing the DLC.
@@FasterJeff Everyone has their opinion, it has crazy graphics and combat movements. I'm just saying if 20 people can make that kind of game a larger developers should also be able to deliver something way better (not talking about this game though).
This is a sequel to Alan Wake, technically. Alan Wake exists in the universe, he and the events of that game are the subject of multiple files you find around the game.
@@Kaunte I know you're comment wasn't directed to me, but it just as well could have been. And you'd be right. It isn't a continuation of the story, not directly. It's not really any different from folks in Daredevil briefly talking about alien hell raining down from the sky. It doesn't add anything substantive, it's just a nod.
I had no knowledge on this game, whatsoever, up until a couple of ago and I most say that I was ABSOLUTELY blown away. This game is fun and fascinating from beginning to the end. I can't believe I didn't hear about it until recently. AMAZING game!
Hey Joe -- thanks for taking the time to make a review despite not feeling well. This is a great game, and I think it deserves praise for its originality and inventiveness, and I appreciate you giving it exposure on a large platform! I do want to offer a little constructive criticism, however, and say that I feel that this format of review is honestly -- in my opinion -- far less engaging or interesting than your usual format. It was still informative, but I feel like the formula for your typical angry reviews is excellent, so it's a shame when life throws you a curveball and you're forced to put out a review that doesn't follow that format. The typical Angry Review formula, as I see it, is as follows:
* you do an intro skit that typically highlights an aspect(s) of the game (be it gameplay, progression, storytelling, etc...) that help(s) define the game as a whole (even if the skit is essentially meme-ing the game, your intros are always fun/interesting, and they help set your reviews apart from the offerings of other reviewers!), giving the player an initial idea of what kind of experience you had, preparing the viewer for what's to come * you talk about the pros and cons of all relevant individual aspects of the game, showing clips that illustrate your point each specific element as you highlight it, and then give your opinion on how each individual element adds to or detracts from the overall experience * after you've touched on the elements you deem relevant, you start your conclusion by giving the game a final "score" followed by a quick recap of your feelings on the various gameplay and story elements to help the viewer understand how you determined that score * and finally, you give your recommendation (or NON-recommendation)
The above is a super accessible, easily digestible way to get a feel for _what_ a game is, as well as an idea of the game's overall level of quality to help inform the viewer as to whether or not they'd be getting good value for their money (be it derived from fun gameplay, a memorable story, etc...) if they choose to buy it, and the way you guys weave funny moments into your reviews to highlight both good _and_ bad aspects of the game under review is just mega enjoyable. Bottom-line: It's a sad day when you're sick during review time, because even though reviews like _this_ one still do the job, they _really_ make the viewer appreciate just how much love and care you put into your _normal_ reviews. This channel will always be where I come for reviews -- you've earned that loyalty over the years many, many times over -- and I hope that you get well soon =)
Completely agree. Definetely prefer the old style of angry reviews where everything is already thought out and scripted - as Joe is able to get his points across easier and more directly, and it's also a lot funnier. The panel discussion makes it a lot more tame and bland in my opinion.
@@welcome2pominville29 agreed, but don't get me wrong -- I'm not trying to say Joe doesn't still give us those when he can (Red Dead Redemption 2 and uh... Anthem... immediately come to mind). I get that he was sick for this one and didn't feel well enough to put in the same kind of time he puts in with the more in-depth, classic review format. For whatever reason though, this one really stuck out to me in not necessarily a _bad_ way, but certainly an _obvious_ one -- this format just isn't the same when it comes to the bread-and-butter Angry Reviews, know what I mean? I love what they're doing with the News show that Alex is sort of "hosting" with Joe and either OJ or Del in the other two seats. I really dig what Alex brings to the table in that role, because -- with all due respect to Joe -- I think Alex is a little better spoken, and that lends itself well to a news segment where you're trying to learn about some of the things happening in the industry as opposed to trying to convey an opinion about a game's buy-worthiness, know what I mean? Joe's got a good dynamic going on his channel right now, as that news segment -- in my opinion, at least -- has a chance to be the channel's second "killer app," so to speak. I just know that it was the first classic Angry Review I ever saw that earned my subscription, and it was the many Angry Reviews (and some Angry Rants, hahaha) that came afterward that earned my loyalty, and while I'm really enjoying some of the newer stuff that Joe's been experimenting with (and I'm glad that other people have recognized how good that stuff is, too) I 100% know that he knows where his bread is buttered, and I don't think we'll be seeing any major long-term changes to a winning formula any time soon. Bottom-line: People get sick, and when they're sick they feel like shit, and when they feel like shit it's _hard_ to get the motivation to meet their usual performance standards, because their _health_ is not at _its_ usual standard, know what I mean? Looking forward to many, many more memorable Angry Reviews from these men.
I've spent a lot more time than I care to admit reading From the SCP Foundation Web site, so when Del described this game as the SCP Foundation, I was very surprised and excited to hear what they thought.
Junda Mane I sadly guess so... It still gets updates every now and then and there's now a new separate version made in the Unity engine (which currently doesn't have even close to the amount if content the original has because of how new it is, and I personally prefer the original)
I personally love Metroidvania-like titles. Makes the game world that more interesting when you don't just go through an area once. It feels like a real world.
Some notes: - The backtracking is helped a lot by a lot of fast travel points, but they're sometimes hidden. - If you're Finnish, the inside humour immediately increased the score by 1. Ahti is amazing, cursing and using silly Finnish idioms badly translated, and all the music is from Finnish bands. And I love the mystery behind him: Is he part of the Oldest House, is he from the Board, is he an Old God, or a person modified by and Object of Power... Also the Janitor outfit you get from his quest is the best set of clothes.
PLus this control games seems like what would happen ot Eleven if she was recaptured and finished growing up in an scp type environment...but its too star wars.
When you brought up FEAR it really hit home... the new games look beautiful and "next gen," but often they're "missing something," inferior in many ways to older games.
@@TheTrueRandomGamer no its not an angry reveiw its bullshit phonned in like the last several its getting to be bullshit and hes going to start to lose subs
@@jaybabe7767 Do you not understand how long they take to make. And did u not hear him, he apologised for this format and said Blair Witch will have a proper angry review. I would rather have this format than nothing at all.
Bad format... i like hearing othrr but do it in a post review where u speak with them not on them... etc.. but this is not joe.. joe do some sports. Get better
As long as you got the parodies, i dont mind this type of format. Just as good for me. Maybe do proper angry reviews for big games like borderlands 3 you'll probably get more views.
I like putting really good / better content in the side quests. I want people who explore and really dive into the game to have a better experience than people who rush trhough it ignoring everything except the main missions.
exactly... side missions allow the devs ta go n do crazy things that dont fit in the main story... I dont see how thats a negative its still all part of the same game...
He is not saying that the side missions are a negative, he loves them, it's that the main missions are lame in comparison and he would have appreciated good main AND side missions.
Just finished this game, honestly one of the best games I've ever played. Straight 8/10 for me. I personally thought the end was decent and interesting, though I agree needed a bit more, especially in the earlier acts as well. I need more of this game is basically what I'm saying lol
@@brokendreamchaser39s 10 hours to power through the basic storyline. There's a ton of interesting side play and the story is more fun if you don't rush through it. I'd say there's a good 20+ hours of gameplay overall.
Bart Massey thanx you for your comment, i didnt finished the game i was close to it, was in a quest that made me jump pilars and I died every time lol. The save points ruined the game for me. But the time that i played i had 90% fun. 10% irritating map and save points
@@brokendreamchaser39s I just finished the game and the save points were the worst part I don't care if a game is challenging, in fact I didn't find control particularly hard but having to do the same shit every-time I died got more tedious than anything.
@@brokendreamchaser39s I didn't finsih the game either, but to make things worse it was because I didn't enjoy 90% of the game ... The story seemed utterly dumb (granted, I'm a rationalist ... so most supernatural stuff seems silly and attempts to force some creepy suspense don't really work for me, I just go "meh, cute"), the characters were written without any depth or consistency (nobody really had some fleshed out build-up of their motivations, most actions of the characters seemed therefore random and bizarre), their actual dialogues were even worse and they were even too lazy to properly lipsync those bad dialogues ... Some graphics effects were nice, but the general artwork seemed lazy and repetitive, I didn't even care to explore much since everything looked the same and reminded me a 2000 game with dull textures, reused assets and a level design as unimaginative as it could get - buuuut with RTX. It honestly looked like they spend all their money for development on SFX programming while not having nearly enough or good enough level designers, 2D-artists and writers. Actually the best part was really the combat ... but only because the rest of the game was such a disappointment. It still felt very focussed on console gameplay, thus it was rather clunky, repetitive and not very dynamic. So in short: I didn't bother with this bad game (glad I got it for free with my second RTX card) ... I'd say if you want to "throw stuff" but still have a good game around it - reinstall Half-Life 2. It doesn't even really look worse.
games/experiences like this are rare... beautifully crafted, immersive world, creative story, and engaging combat. to me, the side quests are just as much a part of the game, not sure why you'd discount them for not being the main/singular story. you still got to experience them, right? glad to hear they're expanding on this universe. personal opinion 9.5/10
Thankyou loved psiops the mind gate conspiracy which was based of remote viewing call the the stargate program it actually worked but wasnt reliable so it was shut down
@Matthew Dorry What does a Remedy game out of nowhere have anything to do with being lazy? He used to do full on "joe/10" reviews for every game that came out, indie games, big AAA games, xbox kinect games. Now he can barely get his fat ass up to do one once every 2 months. I also find it weird how often these people are sick. According to Joe he's sick about 7-8 times a year. He's either a drug addict, a massive alcoholic whose always hungover, or he has some sort of disease, because no normal grown Adult man is sick as much as Joe is. I hear the "i'm sick" excuse allot from YouTubbers in general and it's just weird how YouTubbers are the most sickly people on the planet.. I'm 31 years old and I work outside for a living and I haven't been sick in 5 years, neither has anyone I know been sick for a very long time as well.
Boston Towny4life god you are ignorant. You realize people have lives outside of making videos for you. You never know what any of these guys are going through. So why don’t you get your fat ass up and “go work outside”
@@Bloodhurl67 , Not exactly what you're looking for, but Half-Life 2, for its time, had really good AI (when it wasn't occasionally glitching). The Combines were very dynamic, would pull different maneuvers depending on what the player did, some sought cover when being shot at, they'd dive away from grenades, going for either cover or distance depending on what was the more likely survival option. Plus they, and the headcrabs and their variants, were also good at flanking and ambushing the player. Their reactive scripts are still more complex than a LOT of modern games are, even if they didn't always pull off the moves perfectly with occasional pathing issues or trigger confusion.
I love the Threshold Kids. Yes, Joe, someone at the Bureau came up with the idea to try and explain supernatural stuff to children while also ease the public into some of the less classified stuff they're researching. Because, with every passing hour of research they find out more, and so the supernatural becomes more and more natural. People need to know about it or they'll find out themselves sooner or later. That could get very ... "inconvenient". In the long run, the FBC hopes to increase public acceptance, which would also help funding along. Curiously, though, the show is obviously made by socially awkward scientists with absolutely no expertise on children. That's probably why it's a bit creepy and weirds everyone out.

I started watching Fringe because of Control because from waht I remember back when it aired it felt like the game took some inspiration from the show. And now, having watched 2 whole seasons, it definetly inspired control in so many ways. It`s fantastic
I remember! And I loved both games for their fun mechanics! Second Sight also had an interesting plot and awesome soundtrack. But boss characters in Psy-Ops were more fun to fight.
I HATE how this game handle boss fights. They actually have only one mechanic: if they hit you, or also nearly hit you but really don't, or if you land where they hit yesterday, you're dead. They will oneshot your ass over and over and over and over and over and over again, until you "zerodamage" them: only a perfect is acceptable in the minds of developers. And if theyr attack cycle is too easy to dodge or too predictable, instead of making it better just spam regular grunts! Easy peasy shitty squeezy. The part of the game where you're not fighting bosses are cool I guess... whatever/10.
@@XanKreigor yes. It was very challenging. I don't remember finishing it either. I remember the idea being original and cool at the time. I don't think there's ever been a game like it until this one.

Idk but Del's excitement for this game is really making me want this.
most of the internal monologes were conversations with Polaris. The entity that gives her power, so she is always talking to herself.
That wasn't the ending of the game. There is more after that fake credit role.
They know. It's pretty clear that they played the real ending, but they didn't want to spoil it.
No they didint know becaus angry joen say that end sucks so no
@@lucasuusimaki7429 I suggest you to pay more attention when you look at a video. First, they clearly say that the ending get better after a stop. Second, and more importantly, they talk about the fact that you can continue to play the game after the ending and you can do all the secondary missions, therefore they must have gone through the ending after the credits to know that. Third, there is actual footage (just a glimpse) of the final mission in the video.
If they would had stop playing before the true ending their reaction would have been much worse. The ending sucks, yes, the one after the credits, because there are too much loose ends. Some people defend this ending and say that this is about liking the way the story is narrated, reading through documents. But no, there are things that simply are not told, anywhere. There is no final arc for some very interesting characters like Pope and Marshall. There are questions we are supposed to care at the beginning of the story, like about the ambiguous morality of the FBC, and they are not properly addressed.
@@albertorepetto2909 because the story is not self-contained. Remedy confirm that they're going to make DLC to build on the story before the game was even be released. I think they're saving some of those loose ends for the DLC
@@whitbaez1755 And that is surely reasonable and a good point in this conversation. Still, from the perspective of someone that plays, or review, the game, it's hard to not consider this ending somewhat incomplete when you play for the first time.

I’m on the last leg of the game right now....
The stuff I love-
*The story. It’s so weird and even though complex at times, in reading the notes much of it is explained.
*The combat system. The firearms were a pleasure to use....no sway and could pretty much aim blindfolded. The upgraded abilities allowing you to diversify the combat...such as hurling missiles back at enemies.
* Unlocking new abilities. When I unlocked the levitate ability I just went around exploring, trying to find unreachable places. This was so much fun!
*The puzzles. I’m a massive fan of puzzles, especially environmental ones. These puzzles were just right, not too easy, not too hard.
*The side mission boss battles. They were so much fun and interesting to look at. Like Angry Joe said....why save these amazing boss battles only for the side missions?
*The Alan Wake Easter eggs. I loved this. It made me feel how great it would be to have a remake of the original game, released on multiple platforms....then a game that tied together both Alan Wake and Control. This would be epic!
The stuff I hated-
*The garden variety enemies and main mission bosses. Their design is so bland. You’d think a game that has been built with such imagination would have better enemy designs.....TEW games are a great example of intriguing enemy designs. Also, I wasn’t a fan of being set upon every two minutes by yet more of these run of the mill monsters. It really broke the immersion.
*The game is so janky. On a regular PS4 I couldn’t pause without severe frame rate drop. It also crashed a couple of times.
*The lighting. Maybe an unpopular opinion.....but I hated the lighting in this game. No amount of adjusted brightness on the PS4 or the TV would fix it. It was either too dark, or too bright....which ties into the...
*Ultra red colour scheme representing Hiss. The game is a cakewalk until you have to navigate through a level or boss battle where it’s nothing but police siren red. It was ultra headache inducing and disorientating. I’m sure Hiss could have been represented without this.
Anyway.....that’s my two cents. Overall a great game, but flawed. I’m still looking forward to playing the DLC.
Physics in that game are AMAZING. For a small budget game like this they did GOOD.
If 20-30 million is a small budget in AAA world... if they only upgraded the AI while at it.

Its neat seeing Remedy making more consistently original games instead if sequels
I kind of agree, but I still want Alan Wake 2 though
Kaunte there’s a sequel technically it’s called Alan wakes American nightmare only on Xbox store
This is a sequel to Alan Wake, technically. Alan Wake exists in the universe, he and the events of that game are the subject of multiple files you find around the game.
@@TheDantedarkdemon201 I know, but it's not a real sequel. It's more of a spin off.
@@Kaunte I know you're comment wasn't directed to me, but it just as well could have been. And you'd be right. It isn't a continuation of the story, not directly. It's not really any different from folks in Daredevil briefly talking about alien hell raining down from the sky. It doesn't add anything substantive, it's just a nod.
I had no knowledge on this game, whatsoever, up until a couple of ago and I most say that I was ABSOLUTELY blown away. This game is fun and fascinating from beginning to the end. I can't believe I didn't hear about it until recently. AMAZING game!
Daniel DeVito Real talk !!!!
This game is essentially the SCP Foundation in game form (atleast the Facility is) and I am surprisingly ok with it.
The closest we'll ever get to an official game with as high as production value.
Hey Joe -- thanks for taking the time to make a review despite not feeling well. This is a great game, and I think it deserves praise for its originality and inventiveness, and I appreciate you giving it exposure on a large platform!
I do want to offer a little constructive criticism, however, and say that I feel that this format of review is honestly -- in my opinion -- far less engaging or interesting than your usual format. It was still informative, but I feel like the formula for your typical angry reviews is excellent, so it's a shame when life throws you a curveball and you're forced to put out a review that doesn't follow that format. The typical Angry Review formula, as I see it, is as follows:
* you do an intro skit that typically highlights an aspect(s) of the game (be it gameplay, progression, storytelling, etc...) that help(s) define the game as a whole (even if the skit is essentially meme-ing the game, your intros are always fun/interesting, and they help set your reviews apart from the offerings of other reviewers!), giving the player an initial idea of what kind of experience you had, preparing the viewer for what's to come
* you talk about the pros and cons of all relevant individual aspects of the game, showing clips that illustrate your point each specific element as you highlight it, and then give your opinion on how each individual element adds to or detracts from the overall experience
* after you've touched on the elements you deem relevant, you start your conclusion by giving the game a final "score" followed by a quick recap of your feelings on the various gameplay and story elements to help the viewer understand how you determined that score
* and finally, you give your recommendation (or NON-recommendation)
The above is a super accessible, easily digestible way to get a feel for _what_ a game is, as well as an idea of the game's overall level of quality to help inform the viewer as to whether or not they'd be getting good value for their money (be it derived from fun gameplay, a memorable story, etc...) if they choose to buy it, and the way you guys weave funny moments into your reviews to highlight both good _and_ bad aspects of the game under review is just mega enjoyable.
Bottom-line: It's a sad day when you're sick during review time, because even though reviews like _this_ one still do the job, they _really_ make the viewer appreciate just how much love and care you put into your _normal_ reviews. This channel will always be where I come for reviews -- you've earned that loyalty over the years many, many times over -- and I hope that you get well soon =)
Nobody is gonna read this novel of a comment.🤦♂️🤷♂️
@@juangarcia2632 -- Juan Garcia took the time to comment on it though. 😉
Completely agree. Definetely prefer the old style of angry reviews where everything is already thought out and scripted - as Joe is able to get his points across easier and more directly, and it's also a lot funnier. The panel discussion makes it a lot more tame and bland in my opinion.
@@welcome2pominville29 agreed, but don't get me wrong -- I'm not trying to say Joe doesn't still give us those when he can (Red Dead Redemption 2 and uh... Anthem... immediately come to mind). I get that he was sick for this one and didn't feel well enough to put in the same kind of time he puts in with the more in-depth, classic review format. For whatever reason though, this one really stuck out to me in not necessarily a _bad_ way, but certainly an _obvious_ one -- this format just isn't the same when it comes to the bread-and-butter Angry Reviews, know what I mean?
I love what they're doing with the News show that Alex is sort of "hosting" with Joe and either OJ or Del in the other two seats. I really dig what Alex brings to the table in that role, because -- with all due respect to Joe -- I think Alex is a little better spoken, and that lends itself well to a news segment where you're trying to learn about some of the things happening in the industry as opposed to trying to convey an opinion about a game's buy-worthiness, know what I mean?
Joe's got a good dynamic going on his channel right now, as that news segment -- in my opinion, at least -- has a chance to be the channel's second "killer app," so to speak. I just know that it was the first classic Angry Review I ever saw that earned my subscription, and it was the many Angry Reviews (and some Angry Rants, hahaha) that came afterward that earned my loyalty, and while I'm really enjoying some of the newer stuff that Joe's been experimenting with (and I'm glad that other people have recognized how good that stuff is, too) I 100% know that he knows where his bread is buttered, and I don't think we'll be seeing any major long-term changes to a winning formula any time soon.
Bottom-line: People get sick, and when they're sick they feel like shit, and when they feel like shit it's _hard_ to get the motivation to meet their usual performance standards, because their _health_ is not at _its_ usual standard, know what I mean? Looking forward to many, many more memorable Angry Reviews from these men.
Hes being lazy, hes done this before with some other lame excuse.
So it's basically an unofficial SCP Foundation game
I've spent a lot more time than I care to admit reading From the SCP Foundation Web site, so when Del described this game as the SCP Foundation, I was very surprised and excited to hear what they thought.
Mathwayb Haven't you guys heard of the SCP: Containment Breach game?
Junda Mane I sadly guess so... It still gets updates every now and then and there's now a new separate version made in the Unity engine (which currently doesn't have even close to the amount if content the original has because of how new it is, and I personally prefer the original)
pretty much, that containment area has scp vibes everywhere
Just finished "Control", and it's as close to an official SCP game as humanly (inhumanely) possible...
I personally love Metroidvania-like titles. Makes the game world that more interesting when you don't just go through an area once. It feels like a real world.
Other Joe as the new 007 James Bond! PLEASE!!!
Not British..
Some notes:
- The backtracking is helped a lot by a lot of fast travel points, but they're sometimes hidden.
- If you're Finnish, the inside humour immediately increased the score by 1. Ahti is amazing, cursing and using silly Finnish idioms badly translated, and all the music is from Finnish bands. And I love the mystery behind him: Is he part of the Oldest House, is he from the Board, is he an Old God, or a person modified by and Object of Power... Also the Janitor outfit you get from his quest is the best set of clothes.
Basically this whole review: "Joe did you just hit me in the face with A CARDBOARD BOX!?!?!?"
Fun stuff.
I like how this is taking place in the Alan Wake universe. And the Easter egg that has Alan Wake himself was amazing
It's a Remedy game.. 505 is just the publisher.
Seeing the Thumbnail:yes yes yes YES!
Seeing the Format:no no no no!
Anyway get well soon Joe.

Bad format... i like hearing othrr but do it in a post review where u speak with them not on them... etc.. but this is not joe.. joe do some sports. Get better
Therefore disliked.
As long as you got the parodies, i dont mind this type of format. Just as good for me. Maybe do proper angry reviews for big games like borderlands 3 you'll probably get more views.
I like putting really good / better content in the side quests. I want people who explore and really dive into the game to have a better experience than people who rush trhough it ignoring everything except the main missions.
Yeah I don't really see how good side missions are a negative
exactly... side missions allow the devs ta go n do crazy things that dont fit in the main story... I dont see how thats a negative its still all part of the same game...
He is not saying that the side missions are a negative, he loves them, it's that the main missions are lame in comparison and he would have appreciated good main AND side missions.
Onauc C I agree it’s what makes games like Mass Effect, Skyrim, The Witcher, etc. great games but it could go either way for someone I guess
It's not a good idea to make the main game looks lame in comparison to the side content.

Playtime to finish ? 10 hours?
@@brokendreamchaser39s 10 hours to power through the basic storyline. There's a ton of interesting side play and the story is more fun if you don't rush through it. I'd say there's a good 20+ hours of gameplay overall.
Bart Massey thanx you for your comment, i didnt finished the game i was close to it, was in a quest that made me jump pilars and I died every time lol. The save points ruined the game for me. But the time that i played i had 90% fun. 10% irritating map and save points
@@brokendreamchaser39s I just finished the game and the save points were the worst part I don't care if a game is challenging, in fact I didn't find control particularly hard but having to do the same shit every-time I died got more tedious than anything.
@@brokendreamchaser39s I didn't finsih the game either, but to make things worse it was because I didn't enjoy 90% of the game ... The story seemed utterly dumb (granted, I'm a rationalist ... so most supernatural stuff seems silly and attempts to force some creepy suspense don't really work for me, I just go "meh, cute"), the characters were written without any depth or consistency (nobody really had some fleshed out build-up of their motivations, most actions of the characters seemed therefore random and bizarre), their actual dialogues were even worse and they were even too lazy to properly lipsync those bad dialogues ...
Some graphics effects were nice, but the general artwork seemed lazy and repetitive, I didn't even care to explore much since everything looked the same and reminded me a 2000 game with dull textures, reused assets and a level design as unimaginative as it could get - buuuut with RTX. It honestly looked like they spend all their money for development on SFX programming while not having nearly enough or good enough level designers, 2D-artists and writers.
Actually the best part was really the combat ... but only because the rest of the game was such a disappointment. It still felt very focussed on console gameplay, thus it was rather clunky, repetitive and not very dynamic.
So in short: I didn't bother with this bad game (glad I got it for free with my second RTX card) ... I'd say if you want to "throw stuff" but still have a good game around it - reinstall Half-Life 2. It doesn't even really look worse.

games/experiences like this are rare... beautifully crafted, immersive world, creative story, and engaging combat. to me, the side quests are just as much a part of the game, not sure why you'd discount them for not being the main/singular story. you still got to experience them, right? glad to hear they're expanding on this universe. personal opinion 9.5/10

I also find it weird how often these people are sick. According to Joe he's sick about 7-8 times a year. He's either a drug addict, a massive alcoholic whose always hungover, or he has some sort of disease, because no normal grown Adult man is sick as much as Joe is. I hear the "i'm sick" excuse allot from YouTubbers in general and it's just weird how YouTubbers are the most sickly people on the planet.. I'm 31 years old and I work outside for a living and I haven't been sick in 5 years, neither has anyone I know been sick for a very long time as well.
Boston Towny4life god you are ignorant. You realize people have lives outside of making videos for you. You never know what any of these guys are going through. So why don’t you get your fat ass up and “go work outside”
Questioning that Joe is sick a lot. Like who the fuck cares. Just be happy he’s even putting videos out. Jesus.
Boston Towny4life Loy Of entitlement coming from someone who’s just passively watching videos for free mate
Love that you mentioned the A.I. in F.E.A.R. That game is still the golden standard fourteen years later.
Facts
Is there any other game that has the level of AI like F.E.A.R.?
@@Bloodhurl67 , Not exactly what you're looking for, but Half-Life 2, for its time, had really good AI (when it wasn't occasionally glitching). The Combines were very dynamic, would pull different maneuvers depending on what the player did, some sought cover when being shot at, they'd dive away from grenades, going for either cover or distance depending on what was the more likely survival option. Plus they, and the headcrabs and their variants, were also good at flanking and ambushing the player.
Their reactive scripts are still more complex than a LOT of modern games are, even if they didn't always pull off the moves perfectly with occasional pathing issues or trigger confusion.
I love the Threshold Kids.
Yes, Joe, someone at the Bureau came up with the idea to try and explain supernatural stuff to children while also ease the public into some of the less classified stuff they're researching. Because, with every passing hour of research they find out more, and so the supernatural becomes more and more natural. People need to know about it or they'll find out themselves sooner or later. That could get very ... "inconvenient".
In the long run, the FBC hopes to increase public acceptance, which would also help funding along.
Curiously, though, the show is obviously made by socially awkward scientists with absolutely no expertise on children. That's probably why it's a bit creepy and weirds everyone out.
Joe MUST know about SCP! The Foundation will not stand for this!
Mobile Task Force unit Alpha-01 ‘Red Right Hand’ is en route.
“I died maybe twice”. ?? I find that really hard to believe Del…
i kinda miss the old format of the game reviews where joe was standing
That format really let Joe's great scripts and editing shine.
I actually like the fact that he’s trying to involve his friends a bit more.

So, where's your review then, bigbouy?
It is also such a massive effort to even make a profile pic? Jeez: hollow people tossing stones from glass houses is a thing on social media comments, aren't they?

I started watching Fringe because of Control because from waht I remember back when it aired it felt like the game took some inspiration from the show. And now, having watched 2 whole seasons, it definetly inspired control in so many ways. It`s fantastic

Fringe was an amazing show.
@@Dreadnott117 A white tulip for you.
This game really reminded me of the games Second Sight and Psyops from 2004, does anyone remember those classic games?
Yea, second sight was Brilliant
Oh yeah, I played the shit out of psyops
I remember psyops the boss characters used to scare the shit out of me when I was younger same goes for the invisible shrimp things
psi ops on ps2 destroys Control.
I remember! And I loved both games for their fun mechanics! Second Sight also had an interesting plot and awesome soundtrack. But boss characters in Psy-Ops were more fun to fight.
It's a Remedy game... Not a 505 game... They're just the publisher.
I HATE how this game handle boss fights. They actually have only one mechanic: if they hit you, or also nearly hit you but really don't, or if you land where they hit yesterday, you're dead. They will oneshot your ass over and over and over and over and over and over again, until you "zerodamage" them: only a perfect is acceptable in the minds of developers. And if theyr attack cycle is too easy to dodge or too predictable, instead of making it better just spam regular grunts! Easy peasy shitty squeezy. The part of the game where you're not fighting bosses are cool I guess... whatever/10.
Psi ops!?! Anyone I'm too old school 😂
I never finished that gsme. There was a long ass mission that was a stealth section with instant fail points and I just lost interest.
@@XanKreigor yes. It was very challenging. I don't remember finishing it either. I remember the idea being original and cool at the time. I don't think there's ever been a game like it until this one.
I love the practice mode with wrecking ball
I just said that but I had a y instead of an i been like 15 years lol
@@Rockstopmotion spent hours crushing people wit the wrecking ball in practice mode lol
