      It's amazing the sheer number of people I recommended the game to, never figured out how to reach act 2, but still loved it to death.
      I didn't tell them, btw. One day, it will blow their mind.

      The true ideal Inscryption experience is to actually pull your teeth and stab out your eye when using the pliers and dagger in the game. Makes it a lot more immersive.

    I've definitely mentioned this before but the way your video style visually changes for each game is astounding. Your skills are clearly getting more and more professional too -- so exciting to think what you'll do in the future!
    Also, thank you for these! I feel like people can so easily complain and yell about game devs because they're this imaginary force-- and aside from teaching us awesome game history, I feel that you really humanise the people behind the games we cherish and give people faces and names to be thankful to.

    • @ThatGuyGlen
      @ThatGuyGlen  10 днів тому +5

      Oh man, thank you so much for those amazing words! I always try to put the devs front and center and tell the story from their perspective so I'm glad that shows. Creating unique visuals for every video is what keeps things fun and interesting for me so I'm just happy people seem to dig that aspect :D

      Outer Wilds for sure, Noclip has an amazing documentary. But as far as I know there is very little coverage of the DLC. And Outer Wilds DLC is hands down the best DLC I ever played. Would be interesting seeing how they made the physics work etc...

  • @Vextipher

    The first 3D section with puzzle/escape room elements was definitely the most enjoyable part for sure. Wish there was a game around those aspects and expands there instead of such different changes.

    Act 1: it was great. Love it.
    Act 2: it was a little boring and slow. And the RNG of pulling cards is unforgiving. It was fine.
    Act 3: a bit slow and boring. But overall was good.

    7/10

    The production of this video is insane. I have to ask how did you find the 3D models from the game? Some were free but the scale and stuff must have been custom made?

    Regarding Nintendo’s recent actions on emulation, this is the only solution:
    *All types of intellectual property (IP) laws must be fully abolished immediately, in any and all jurisdictions worldwide.* All IP laws are extremely unethical for humankind.
    ‘Against Intellectual Monopoly’ is the most informative book humanity has on the subject now. ‘Against Intellectual Property’ is _another_ incredible essay, but it’s written with right-libertarian rhetoric so if you’re, like me, not right-libertarian you’ll have to read with an open mind and extract the essential info. _Only_ these two texts are the gold standard when it comes to intellectual property.
