    And we're back.
    I didn't really have much of a break. I was trying to find things to cover that mostly didn't end up working out. But things are moving again now, so stay tuned!

      play dark messiah of might and magic if you really wanna defeat enemies in multiple fun ways like in En garde

      @raptor152 11 місяців тому

      If you don't have other ideas for what to cover, I think your style would really mesh well with the game Fear and Hunger.

    @aslandus 11 місяців тому +22

    Jumplight sounds like exactly the kind of game I've been waiting for, a spaceship management game where it feels like you have enough crew members and ship elements to really capture the feel of what a deep space voyager would have to be. TOBOR also gives me some real Do Not Feed The Monkey vibes, which is a good thing in my book.

    Viewfinder's demo had me hooked the second I held up the first picture. It's one of the few demos where I actually said "NOOO" when it told me the demo was over. Can't wait for the full release!

  • @divineeye147
    @divineeye147 11 місяців тому +21

    Yes, viewfinder there’s something so relaxing and escaping on an elemental level about that game. Also TOBOR seems amazing from what I’ve heard and if it’s worth your time, then it’s probably worth my time. Thanks ^^

    Apogee released another great demo this fest called Quest Master where you create your own Link to the Past dungeons. I dunno if the boom shoot trend brought the company back or what, but their return’s been really impressive so far

    Viewfinder definitely has a Superliminal like vibe. And if it's anything like that game then it's going to be very fun and then it'll make me cry at the end. Can't wait for the full release.

    The climbing in Jusant reminds me a lot of this game called GIRP, which was the "sequel" to classic funny flash game QWOP. Seems like a very intuitive way to represent rock climbing

  • @St0rmTheGates
    @St0rmTheGates 11 місяців тому +4

    Interesting that they remade Rise Of The Triad again. I think the other one was an adaptation rather than a straight remake though.

    • @Gatorade69
      @Gatorade69 11 місяців тому

      It's not a remake. Simply a remaster. The game was very hard to get running properly on newer PCs. So yeah, this is just the original game with some quality of life enhancements and one new chapter. Much like what Nightdive does with a majority of their games.

  • @johnvanjohn825

    Was impressed by Viewfinder and surprisingly charmed by En Garde. The demo for Fortune's Run was interesting, but I'm not sure about the end product. It's also not a new demo, but I really enjoyed finally playing Luto: The Choice. I appreciate these videos as it's hard to play more than a handful.

    Two of your games in Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition and En Garde! are two of the seven Steam Next Fest June 2023 that I played. As far as ranking my seven demos that I played ROTT: LE and En Garde! are the two breads of the sandwich for me with ROTT: LE's demo being my top bread and En Garde! being my bottom bread. Growing up with the subgenre of the classic first person shooter genre watching my dad play Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, Quake, and the Shareware ports of Shadow Warrior and Rise of the Triad I was kicked in with the first person shooter genre as a whole during it's Golden Age. En Garde! is at the bottom because the demo is just ridiculously too short and the games combat with the moves and all can be confusing. Steam Next Fest June 2023 on the other hand is my personal best experience with a Steam Next Fest with free demos I've had yet!

    En garde looks awesome and I’m looking forward to it but comparing it to godhand sounds sacreligious

    • @PowerPakGames
      @PowerPakGames  11 місяців тому +2

      While it doesn't have God Hand's customisable combos, it does have its enemy reactivity. Kicking an enemy against the wall and seeing them splat against it is very specific endorphin kick, and that's very much God Hand's bread and butter. A key aspect of both games too is taking cocksure but exaggerated enemies and pantsing them publicly with your own goofy fighting style, and that's hugely enjoyable. The spirit of God Hand is here, if not its technical mastery.

    Much like yourself, en guarde reminded me of dark messiah, arkane's first breakpout success. If they're able keep up the creativity, I'll be happy.
    I know, arkane hasn't forgotten about fans like me but... well... if m$oft could give them a real chance to shine, I'm here.
    Jusant's performance issues are likely related to bad loading screen and LOD placement, shouldn't take too much to fix it

    • @Gatorade69
      @Gatorade69 11 місяців тому

      Don't count Arkane out yet. There's two Arkane studios, Austin and Lyon. Austin was originally just a support studio for Lyon (The main studio).
      RedFall was forced on Arkane Austin by Zenimax before MS bought them. When that happened a majority of the staff left leaving them understaffed. Microsoft actually gave them more time and told them to take out lootboxes.
      I think the best thing would be for Austin to go back to being a support studio, especially since they are understaffed and now have the Redfall mark on them. It seems that Microsoft is kind of hands off, so here's hoping their next game is something they really want to make.
