this CHAIN was truly covered in Guts and Blackpowder by the Intruder and caused it to awaken the Silent Dark and Massacred the military base and its Residence before a robloxian appeared and unsheathed his Blade Ball to defeat it before using the Rust Machine to finish off CHAIN
This is the Roblox horror equivalent of “Guys this is so jumbo josh rizz grimace shake funny, don’t be cringe and upvote this wholesome meme” And before anyone goes “oh what about blade ball”, it’s simple. Greedy practices are real life horror
Chain seems like the middle ground between "the Mimic" genre (walk around a confusing location and solve puzzles) minus the puzzle part while mixed with "maze horror" a.k.a. you are locked in a maze with some kind of a monster. You collect stuff, bring stuff to x location, rinse and repeat. It does become irritating around the "abandoned town" part where it's very hard to find the last few gas cans. Otherwise it's just plain generic and belongs to the 2012 horror era. It also doesn't help that guy with a chainsaw is scary for around 3-4 encounters/chases, afterwards he's just an annoyance
it's funny. i think this game has a lot of potential, but i get the feeling that the developers are too afraid to try anything new. i joined the discord server for updates, sneak peaks etc. and right after this video came out, i saw literally no one agreeing with ANYTHING you said. all anyone could say was "keep on yappin" and "all i can hear is circus music" (with a developer saying "he's just a loser" and "haters will hate") without actually explaining why anything you said was wrong.
It's so sad because instead of using this advice to their advantage they wanna play dumb and the fans (albeit prob young) don't wanna hear criticism and wanna pretend like the game is perfect when it's far from it which gets absolutely no one anywhere and makes people despise the community more. (tbh this is how bad communities form)
My problem with Chain is how overpowered the killer is in chapter 1. Running is almost impossible, and the dodge mechanic doesn't help you at all. I died so much that I stopped getting scared by the screams of the killer because I didn't even know what was going on anymore.
Fact about the monster: If you ever played the older version of Chain, there was a note that explained about how a cult: The dudes who made him, explained about how the curse made them resist conventional means. I’m ngl though, the game is the definition of “Quality over Quantity, that doesn’t work.”
@@rogue_no it’s short, unless you miss the object that doesn’t even stick out from a background set piece. then it’s almost hours long. I played this game by myself first and then played with friends, and each time it was unbearable to find everything. It’s not sweet either, its actually the worst taste I’ve ever tasted.
@@rep0rter689 You reminded me of the time when i first played it with my group of friends and we couldnt find the key at the very start, so we spent about 10-20 mins doing absolutely everything, except focus on finding the key. We found how to get on the roof, that was funny. Oh and then we spend like 5 mins purposefully dying to the spiders later on because we found that peak comedy.
I only think it’s loud because it’s probably like how puppet comic does their stuff. It can be quite loud in those games they make and I think that’s what they are trying to do. But that’s just what I think looking at puppet combo games with murder mine
Ok so, cuz i know someones gonna say it so im gonna do it first, if guns or weapons stagger chain, that would mean the entire military base soldiers would just stunlock him by shooting him constantly. BUT he would activate bloodmoon which is exactly what happens if you keep attacking him on survival mode and he would zoom everywhere killing everyone. This is just a expectation, pls no hate
a lot of roblox horror games that are considered "good" are just like this tbh, they look, really good considering most roblox games dont have effort put into graphics and what not, but thats it, when it comes to the gameplay with these, it really lacks, and has a lot of holes, not only in plot and gameplay, but basically everything about the game.
alone tries to look all realistic and look similar to doors. But it's gameplay is SO BAD to the point where I died TWICE or more to the EXACT SAME GLITCH like the gameplay didn't even function with avatars.
i mean, for obvious reasons. if you think about it, a modeller has no connection or technical bounds with the scripter, but a animator or a UI Designer may involve themselves more with the scripter for the sake of compatibility and misc, (which is the reason you may see unconsistency with high building skill with low scripting skills), so this isn't a problem that is going to change anytime soon. infact it can only get worse from there since buildings keeps getting easier
I do wanna learn tho bc I wanna make a roblox game I think could be really fun and I have some gr8 ideas, I just don't know where to start with coding :(
I agree that chapter 1 and it’s legacy version can be quite repetitive, but I’m still excited for chapter 2 to come out. I feel like the 2/3 devs working on this game have some kind of goal and ambition, but they don’t really know how to get there yet. Regardless, I will continue to support this game every step of the way because just like Bredian over here, I’m a sucker for horror games, and even though that’s kinda fallen off for me in ROBLOX’s case (I wasn’t a huge fan of residents massacre) I will still continue to support horror games with good potential, in and out of ROBLOX
the truth is, as a dev myself i just try to make a good horror game based on how fun it is solo or multiplayer, but the issue is when i tried to get investors and devs to work with me, they just said to monitize the games and add trending stuff to it. Its not about the devs, but about the society in the dev groups
once thing to note is that you are correct that only 2/3 of the devs are working on the game as the og lead dev has left due to uni so his friend now manages the game and also on the og devs account and the og dev will probably never return as the dev stated himself in a discord message
the whole soul of the game feels like, it's trying to look serious and cinematic/polished (an example being the intro cutscene), but the core game being mediocre. style over substance basically.
Every roblox game uses the same chainsaw sound which is the chainsaw from L4D2 but for some reason nobody has decided to alter the audio so it's always ear-splittingly loud.
its too boring. you run one place, he comes, you run, he goes after someone else, you camp, you win. they need a better combat system and a bigger map, higher stamina? i think yes, less damage so the chases are longer? i think yes@@sunsetsun9652
Chain is the only game to actually make me lean forward and put the volume on a single bar The sound effects are so loud they actually cut out due to being too high of decibels
10:45 was an excellent statement. roblox is continuing the days when the "cutting edge" of horror was just games with high graphics and no fucking story. excellent channel man, you are awesome.
6:00 I love how the game's incompetency at being scary was so bad that you guys were more focused on the floating flashlights rather than the cutscene climax where the killer got you
I played Chain for a bit, and I have only played the Survival Beta Testing, and to say that I like it would be an overstatement. The map is cool and nice to travel on your free time, and the amount of detail they put into everything, including say the dead bodies or just the run down structures is gorgeous. But apart from that, I felt like my ears were constantly aching from the amount of times I heard the Chainsaw man and it was far away, which made me fall into a false sense of security UNTIL the Chainsaw man was actually chasing me. And even then being chased just sucks. First of all, you have this strong red static effect that makes you more blind than actually make you see, and combined with the fact that the flashlight lowers when you sprint just adds pain to the cake. Despite you running miles away from Chainsaw man, he will still catch up to you and kill you if you run out of stamina which I find bullshit, and there is also some dodge mechanic that I cannot be bothered to remember the bind of from the top of my head in a chase. Second, if you happen to have a Machete or a Deagle looted, you can pull out those weapons and fight back. But the thing is that it's pointless, as he has no real hp pool, so your best shot is just doing the Block or stunning the Chainsaw for a bit to run. Problem is; you can't switch them out in a reasonable timeframe, because if you do try it, you would essentially waste 5 seconds putting away and taking out another item due to the animations and input lag of some sort. Which is really annoying when you want to live. Now again the game is good and looks good, but because of the issues I can't bring myself to play this game, because of *loud noises as if they put the soundvolume in Studio to 5 and left it at that.* And also the game's fun value just dies when you are walking and nothing is happening while you hear people with Machete blocking Chainsaw man's attacks. That's my whole experience of Chain, and I can confidently see why I don't like the game from watching this video-
when i first played Chain, i had to force myself to finish it because it was such an annoyance to go through. the killer was extremely loud and frustrating to run away from.
Tbh, I agree with u, I do think chain is a really pissing game , especially survival but it’s mainly bc the game just relys so much on running and conserving stamina, and chapter 1 story was just far worse, u just constantly crouch and have to find the generators and if u get caught, then ur practically dead since it’s pretty much a maze, but the music used did hook me in a bit. However, the thing I really love about chain is combat, it’s like playing a battleground game but with just m1s and block, and I love how it’s not just “press block”, but even after u activate block, you have to spam “F” which adds interaction. And with the new survival final update, they did a great job with adding a new ending and the spellbook animation is just amazing and satisfying. And even adding choke which again adds more interaction. But overall, chain is a game with potential but lacks trying out new stuff
it makes me so annoyed when a game like chain is so well made well animated and everything is visually fine tuned to perfection yet the game itself is just not good
To be honest, what really got me hooked onto chain was the combat, i think its pretty cool that the survival horror game actually lets you fight back. (not talking about story mode obviously) and without the combat, i genuinely think that i probably would've just played for a couple minutes and stopped playing forever after dying like you said. Overall, im not really a critic who complains because one particle of dust looks out of place, so its not really a big deal to me as it is for a few people who are.
this game is visually great but I can defiantly agree with the loud sounds and annoyances darkness and all that I saw some leaks for chapter 2 and the game looks really good they also fixed some of the issues in chapter 2 like the flashlight and other things
CHAIN is a perfect example of a roblox horror game that people say is amazing just because it has pretty cutscenes and it’s gory. Like the gore is cool, but it’s super hard to even see in the cutscenes cause it’s so damn dark. And it’s boring as hell, but peoples think it’s cool because it’s “EdGY”. Like there is genuine talent on this platform and truly amazing experiences can be made and do exist, just seems like most people are too scared to make that step in fear that there game will fall into obscurity and make no money.
@@Jcoleot i was always trying to think of a good term for those horror games where the whole objective is "find thing, use thing, win game" and fetch quest is perfect. tbh i only play those games because i'm bored or want to see the story behind it, i already know what i'm in for once i need a "key" for something.
@@m03 same here except the only ones I really like to play are the maze games but many of those get really annoying and tedious like color or die. Only one I recommend is the OG game cheese maze
@@Jcoleot yeah cheese escape was fun when i played it. color or die was ok, definitely tedious. i also like the horror games where you need to survive something somehow. the intruder is pretty fun. night watch was good but difficult at times, it took me a little while to complete the final night. doors is also fun for a replayable game, more so with all the new modifiers to make the game more difficult now.
if i fucking stabbed you with a chainsaw, would that be needless gore? 😭 the game is being nice with like, no physical damage to your character until dying
Administrator for chain here. The reason why the military base fell to chain was because he’s immortal, bullets won’t do any good and they’ll just bounce right off of him. Chain can only be HURT physically by dark magic as spree said. You can also kill him via banishing through ritual. Don’t ask me much about the lore, since spree’s the one who works on it. The gameplay it self I get why people can find it annoying after dying multiple times, but the game is still in beta meaning there are more stuff to come out such as chapter 2 and a DBD mode itself. But hey, that’s your opinion about the game and I’ve got nothing against it lol.
@@SaintlyGold The only reason machetes were brought into survival was because they work as a defense mechanism (devs correct me if I’m wrong.) to actually give the player a bit of a fighting chance at defending them selves, as it only staggers him when blocking or parrying his attacks. (it wasn’t really meant to be as a "combat" weapon to attack him but it’s whatever.) block and run. Or you could just block hit and run. In reality, you wouldn’t even be able to touch chain. If you tried attacking him hand-to-hand combat, he’d instantly kill you the first time.
i got so incredibly lost on this game that i somehow got out of bounds unknowingly and walked to the edge the map. i then proceeded to jump off and never played the game since.
I played this before the revamp even happened but instead of playing with friends, I played it solo and the monster's ai is literally so annoying it's like fighting the AI of the early mortal kombat games, they let you win if they feel like it At first, I was a bit immersed and sucked in the game because with such visuals I'd think it'd have the potential to be a great horror game and I was so, so wrong. It took me so much time to get through the military base part and it'd let you retry as many times as you want but the more I died the more frustrated I got instead of being scared. Once the chainsaw guy sees you, it's all over or your progress gets set back SIGNIFICANTLY. Because those 2 maps didn't have as much hiding spots or I just missed them because the ai's range of detecting you is cheating because you'd never see him the moment you get spotted I just did the right thing and never played it again. Seriously, what were they thinking making the maps so open and with little to no hiding spots to go through?
Speaking of Roblox horror games, I just wanted to know if you're planning on checking out Break-In 2 sometime in the near future. The first Break-In was pretty successful when it came out years back, so I was wondering if you would take a look at its long-awaited sequel.
I played the first break in quite a bit, and got the secret ending and everything. But, I only played break in 2 once. I just didn’t feel the same about it, so idk if I should do a video
break in and break in 2 is not a horror game. even if they were trying to they have failed miserably. i played break in 2 and its a pretty nice game, i can see the effort they put into it and i overall like the bosses and gameplay of it
There is a few exceptions when horror games don’t scare you. For example, doors is one of my favorite games on the platform and it never really scared me, Chain was also never really scary, but it kinda sucks. There is an easy difference between those two games. One is not scary but really good, however the other one is not scary but unfortunately it sucks. Big fan bro keep up the good work!
i may be quite late, well, very late since this was 5 months ago, i kind of agree with your opinion, Chain has a peak potential to this game, only reason why i love Chain because of their animations, cut scenes, graphics, etc etc.. gameplay of the story is truly a meh, me and my friends took 1hr to progress but we never finished it (some disconnected, some gtg, some just left), i do hope they give some developments on that, like a plot, and a way of defending yourself than just dodging, and better things to do than just doing objectives then going through dark big long ass mazes, yk? i'm not talking about the Survival since defending yourself there is a thing, but it's about the Story highly no offense, if some of you are big fan of Chain, or you're one of the devs reading this
Being honest, I kinda enjoyed chain before checking the official discord server and watching this video, whenever there was the military section i was also wondering "how the hell did chain take down the whole military base?" (Btw yes the name of the monster is chain) and after some time i joined the discord server and honestly the stuff devs confirmed is just dissapointing, yes chain is immortal but can also resist a lot to guns, so he doesn't feel hurt n' stuff, which already makes the lore boring IMO (i'll explain later) and also the mask gives chain all his stuff such as power and resistence (and the mask was created by the devil and used by many people, the power and stuff from these people stacked into the mask), not only that but we will have more threats too. However another thing you can noticed in the discord server is that the devs are way too hungry in making chain be a powerful thing, there's an animation with chain vs chainsawman and guess what, chain survives without a problem. But honestly it's just fucked up, in "chapter 2 leak" video posted by a dev in the thumb you see a dude shooting at chain, and this is where the immortal bullshit messes up the game, you will know that no matter what they use, chain will still be fine and murdering people, only banishing him will work (confirmed by a dev), this hunger for making chain strong is destroying the game, the laziness is, you see even the sound chain makes is from another game (cry of fear), also small fix, chain does keep his chainsaw off in the revamp, there was one time i was crouching and he was passing by with if off, he just turns it on really quick. Also another nonsense thing is that his vision his worse with the mask, but how if it's really powerfull and created by the devil?
Sorry for the huge text but also it feels like not even the devs and staff knows what to do, we know chain can be defeated by banishing him but here's another catch, a staff said you can only defeat chain if he's without is mask, ok. But then another staff once said in a suggestions channel that only holy stuff can defeat him but "it's not like you could banish him"... really? Do they even know what they are doing with their own fucking game? Anyways i hope @breadian sees this since it explains a lot of stuff Oh and also another thing to mention: the protagonist is a "skilled" PMC and a former soldier and also had a "skilled" team that was ambushed
I'm glad I found this cus I had no idea about what chains power came from or how powerful he is. Now that I found this out I can wholeheartedly say that is so fucking stupid. All they had to say was he isn't immortal though he has super resistance or smth similar to Mr X from Re2 and it would've been a whole lot better. The bullshit with the mask is also just unnecessary they definitely just said that for the sake of making chain seem all the more powerful. I agree the devs are just making chain overpowered for sake of being overpowered. He doesn't need these things to be tough and scary just make him some sort of maniac or biological weapon that has huge resistance and speed and it would be infinitely better than whatever they came up with. Idk why I went on a rant, I liked the game just kinda pisses me off that they're making him powerful and using the dumbest reasons to do so. The holy weapons thing is also just dumb
@@Uncannyskeletons man i totally agree with you, like your mr x example, i really like how he's built, tall dude that stalks the player whenever he spots, using an armored coat, but by the end a single shot of a rocket puts him down
Okay, I get chapter 1 may not be that good, but when their new survival gamemode, and chapter 2 releases, you definitely need to play it, I mean I had hella fun playing survival in early access with my friends bro.
i do disagree with your stance on survival mode due to the fact that most of the items are accessible from the shop and it's harder to get away from chain on average, it's actually pretty scary when he walks outside of the building you're in and you have to predict when he runs in so you can stun him and run away
Im an avid chain player, I mostly find myself playing survival because the story modes disappointed me Incredibly. Chain is a game where it has a lot of issues but the devs dont really hot-fix it, they wait until the next update to do that, even then.. the game is still really buggy. Survival is the buggiest gamemode I've ever seen, you won't last one round without seeing him struggle to navigate past a tree, or his ai just completely breaks itself by just spawning or running into the safe house door. Dodging is pretty much useless if you don't have a weaopon or help around you, at least in survival because you'll run out of stamina before you can get 4 dodges off. The blizzard gimmick is abnormally terrible and you can't see 3 feet infront of you, meaning chain can see you before you can see him. His bloodmoon phase can be easily avoided by going to a small shack and getting him stuck on the tree, his model and hitbox grows larger meaning he can't do anything other than be stuck on a tree. He is only a threat when he's buggy or he gets the speed boost bug. Also the dev saying him being buggy is "intentional" should say it all. Edit: Game passes are pretty much useless and the volume still being loud at 1 is just the cherry on top.
hey Bread! i'm glad you made a video on this game. i've seen many playthroughs of it, and it looks visually appealing. the actual game though, is uh...not that good. i personally didn't find much wrong with the game, but your video really brought some things to my mind. keep up the good work! your content is fire 🔥🔥 -the one MW2 squeaker that hasn't actually played MW2 before
exactly, this guy has no idea what hes talking about when it comes to survival, its repetitive and the map and alot of things need improvement but all he talks about is the story, and hes saying its a worse rake?? Its better in my opinion.@@Mr.NobodyOfficial
Ik this was 4 months ago but they came out with an updated version so now they have guns the guns actually damage him causing him to be stunned. He is also an demonic killer (I mean duh look at the pentagram he gets summoned by)
idk if its just a skill issue but when the game first came out during its early days you were able to actually successfully escape the cry of fear chainsaw guy but now when i played it recently i was legit not able to escape it atleast once, if it spotted me there was basically no reason to escape because it felt like it knew where i was at all times during chase, even if i looped a container or a military camp hut thing, it legit wouldnt of matter because it would still find me even if i ran away from the area it was chasing me in
@@rodrigomusicman1871theres a dodge machainic in the game also if ur talkin about survival just go to a crowded place or go to safehouse and if he breaks in just get the hell out of there
@@Ilikeflamingospfpsoimusingit like Dodges are going to save you XD. And no, i am talking about chapter 1(for some reason i can outrun chain in survival most times but i can barely get distance from him on chapter 1l
@@rodrigomusicman1871 u only need to loop around a structure such as a tent or find a place to hide chapter 1 is pretty ez if u know where all the generators are
Personally, I enjoyed the gore and cutscenes and thought the animation was well-done. However, I can agree with you on the gameplay itself. Its still in early access, so let's hope some changes to the gameplay would be made.
To top the cherry off, apparently hes immortal and nothing phases him and guns are useless, so why does survival mode have a desert eagle as a option to attack him? Ah yes, very good logic.
I like chain because i think it has somewhat realistic sprint, the dodge mechanic could definitely be tweaked, it is definitely on my top horror game list, cant wait for chapter 2 to come out!
Realistic? What about it is realistic. The amount of time you can sprint? If so, first off, I feel sad for you if you can't even sprint for 15 seconds, but it's not really realistic. What do you mean by realistic though.
I don't mean any offense, but I kinda wish your review was more constructive. I played CHAIN not too long ago and I do agree with a lot of your points, the loudness, darkness, unoriginal gameplay, unclear direction, etc. However, I personally think the pros in CHAIN like the cutscenes, graphics, gimmick, and antagonist give the game the potential to be better and make room for the developers to learn and experiment with as the game is still in development, and despite the pay to revive I doubt they are as greedy and careless as other developers on Roblox. It just felt like 40% of your review were valid criticisms and 60% was just pointlessly dunking on the game, which I personally find ironic considering its a review that (at least I'd hope so) is meant for the developers to improve on. Again, I don't mean any offense, just wish your review was more constructive.
Dude,there is nothing more to criticize. literally all you do in the game is turn on some generators while running from a dude with a chainsaw. that's it
@@rodrigomusicman1871 Well explained, though the games still done better than any other horror roblox game ive played. Why are you all treating it like it was made by a AAA studio. Its literally free made by a tiny Group of people. Yeah, it has flaws, But it was their first try and hopefulyl they learn from it and know how to improve Future chapters.
I think CHAIN is alright. Some things dont make sense, but other things can be pretty good. Early survival was kinda bad, but it recently got an update that kinda helped boost survival. The devs themselves have also said that Chapter 1 wasn't really supposed to be the best as it was rushed and they wanted to show us the mechanics for when Chapter 2 comes out. Obviously Chapter 1 isn't that good at all, but you gotta understand that this game is being made by 2 seniors.
I am caught in a weird amalgamation of emotions right now. I always praised Chain for its scary monster, it’s atmosphere, graphics. But now after watching this video, I’ve kinda lost hope for chain. There making Chain so powerful that he’s basically just becoming a god and less scary. And I feel like they need to make chapter 1 and survival more original. Maybe survival could have the same gimmick as the rake but more fleshed out and unique to separate itself from the Rake, such as maybe a new map and new mechanics. I honestly disagree with Breadian here even after I’ve agreed with him so many times. The game does have potential to be scary and a good horror game, if so many mechanics and shit weren’t borrowed from other games. I really hope the devs change there game and make chapter 2 something that is a actually original, scary and entertaining. If they don’t, I’m giving up on the game in its entirely 🙃
Honestly, about the problem when there’s a hiding spot inside the house, you can outrun him. But you have to prepare your ear because the chase theme is still played even chain can’t find you.
The military base should have just near ranger towers. Theres only so much you could do to suspend belief with literal machineguns that WILL tear this silly man into pieces, whether he dies or not. Plus more actual isolation would feel better
I think most of these points fall flat in the sense of “should’ve been more realistic.” this isn’t saying there’s no massive flaws (the gameplay, life monetization, excessive loud noises). however I feel the reason so many people have faith in the game is because of how much passion there is for a slasher game on ROBLOX of all places. the game doesn’t NEED to make sense. and it’s only because it’s a silly little jason clone with a chainsaw. yeah he’s stupid and makes no sense but that’s what’s funny about slashers. I do however believe the gameplay needs work. every player to ever exist is tired of fetch quests. but I’ll give credit where it’s due, the animations are beautiful and the cutscenes are reliable. the killer is memorable (visibly) and the game tries to do something new with stylization
I've seen ALOT of praise for this game, and when i played it.... oh, another one of these games were you're in a maze searching for collectibles like slenderman from 2012, with useless gore added ! wow, i'm so happy ! i'll put that one on the shelves of "games were you're in a maze searching for collectibles like slenderman from 2012 with useless gore added"
chain has good potential but holy shit the game is so fucking dark i like the game but they need to fr increase the brightness or make the lighting better
Chain lore: You were once a soldier, but after leaving the military, you found work as a private military contractor. You were good at what you did, and over the years, you gained a reputation for being one of the best in the business. That's why you weren't surprised when a wealthy corporation approached you with a high-stakes mission to neutralize a dangerous target. You were confident in your skills and experience, but you knew that you couldn't do it alone. So you hand-picked a team of skilled and hardened mercenaries to accompany you on the mission. The team was made up of people you had worked with before, and you trusted them implicitly. The mission began well, and you were making good progress towards your objective. But then, everything went wrong. Your team was ambushed by a mysterious and unknown group. At first, you thought it was just another group of mercenaries hired to protect the target, but then you realized that they were your own team. In the confusion and chaos of the attack, you were knocked unconscious, and when you woke up, you found yourself in a dirty and broken cabin. The people who had rescued you were all dead, and you quickly realized that you had been betrayed. The details of what had happened were hazy and uncertain, but you knew that you had to get out of there. You stumbled outside, disoriented and desperate for help, and that's when you came across a nearby military base that had been recently attacked by "IT." The base was in shambles, and you found almost everyone dead. You began to piece together the events that led to this horrific massacre and discovered that the military base was actually a private military company, hired by the same corporation that had contracted you. Their mission was to neutralize "IT," who had been causing havoc and destruction in the surrounding area. "IT" was a cursed individual, forced into the labor of "THEM." You didn't know what that meant, but you knew that "IT" was dangerous and that you had to stop them, almost being impossible due to the amount of power and sheer damage they could do. Using one chainsaw, being able to wipe an entire military base, clean. As you wandered throughout the base, desperately searching for a way to contact the outside world and get help, you realized that your own mission may have been part of a larger, more sinister scheme. You were starting to connect the dots and realized that the corporation you were working for might not have had your best interests at heart. As you struggled to restore power to the generators and regain access to the towers and radios, you were met with increasingly violent resistance from "IT." It was clear that "IT" was not going to let you leave the base alive. Despite your skills and experience, you were eventually overwhelmed and mortally wounded. As you slipped away from your life, you left behind a legacy of horror, a life, passed down to another soul. The mask is what makes CHAIN himself, the mask has existed over eons, being cursed and being put on sinners. The human inside the masks possession is still alive, feeling everything, and seeing everything. The mask picks up experience from eons of people being cursed, taking fighting experience, iq, resistance, willpower, and the desire to kill. The mask was handy-work from the devil, being brought upon the Earth that a cult has guarded it for centuries. The mask itself grants near immortality, inhumane strength, speed, agility, dexterity, and more. The weapons that the mask uses is brought upon what the sinner does on a daily basis. "CHAIN" being an insane lumberjack mass murderer that favors in killing his victims with a chainsaw. Now being manifested into what he is now.
I honestly think you're being way too harsh with the game. Yes it certainly isnt an unique experience but you cannot deny there was actual effort put into this demo. Lighting, animation, coding, sound design, all of thoses things take time and i know a bit of what i'm talking about since i've been using roblox studio for 4 years. I think you're being too harsh to the developers just sharing what they're proud of. This all stays my opinion thought, you might know something that i dont
@@starlighted_goob i agree, however i still think it's much appreciable. And honestly the gameplay is really not that bad. There's some issues when playing with a lot of poeple but overall it's pretty good. Yes it is not original, but it doesnt make it bad.
its a great game but theres no reason to play with random people because its sucks to play with random people; in most games it doesnt really matter if youre playing w friends or strangers because usually the game is easy enough for everyone but here its seriously recommended to go solo; even then people who are good at solo sometimes never learn how to actually do teamwork (and dont bother to because they are already good at solo) leading to a lot of people just doing things like dropping you in water/lava, stealing aggro (annoying and usually ends up bad due to lag [droids are client side methinks]) not making potions for their team so they can have more survivavility, etc. also the problem with carrying is the fact that some people get carried to a ascension far out of their reach which causes them to not be able to do it on their own which just leads them to want to be carried more or just end up leaving so; if you are a active player, please try discouraging carrying, just ends up hurting players more than it helps them tbh.
i dont get why people are mad at the people behind chain because are they are saying" haters will hate'' etc. you are saying that the game is "shit'' imagine if you made a game that was quite bland but good and people are say that your game is poop ofc you wouldn't listen because they are saying your game is garbage! at LEAST say it in a way that is not randomly rude you can still critique it but not just be blatantly rude . "wow, what a shitty game that was" thats not critiquing the game that being rude and thats whats shitty.
i still genuinely like the game bc the atmosphere and everything makes it really fun (it is pretty mid tho sometimes) and also it would be a lot more cramped if we just stayed inside the story mode map so it makes sense (also they probably didn't have many options)
There's a crouching mechanism which is told at the beginning. using this in a corner with no closets since your friends or other players got them first keeps you safe since "chain" is sorta blind and the survival mode is kind of like the rake but with guns and more mechanisms like blocking with a machete or something of the sort.

Loud = scary THATS WHAT HORROR GAMES ARE FOR BRO! Well silence is still scary theres this one horror game that i forgot its name but theres this part where you do something and you turn around and theres this FACE like A WHOLE GUY that has his face right infront of you there was no soundtracks and no inviromental sounds like creeking just nothing and then after that he dissapears but that scare has definetly scared some people so yea silence is scary at times and is an option for developers if theyre ever gona make horror games.
Honestly the only reason I enjoy CHAIN is because of it's chaotic funny survival mode, it's kind of good in my opinion, it allows you to do much more in the game mode, and it has more lore in it.
You say the map is too hard and confused of what to look for when it’s gives you objectives and even highlights the generators for you the chapter 1 is literally a tutorial and the reason you can kill him is because it’s not the military that’s bad it’s just that he’s a superhuman being with insane agility, strength, durability and other and also just press tab to see the objective so stop tapping about little of things can calling chain “one of those games” where you have to run around looking for things which is literally almost every horror game and it’s what makes it scary you never know when things will happen literally yapping about nothing and he survival mode isn’t even really supposed to be there it was intentionally there to keep the fun of the game going while they work on chapter 2 and isn’t a “copy of the take” it’s an inspiration so quit the tapping and learn some shit for once
You also say it’s the same as before referring to the legacy version which this is a revamp so yeah things may be the same but they just revamped it so literally just stop the useless yapping and stop criticizing games just to get the attention out of now have a good day
So, I'll come in to defend him. I'm not going to lie, I never saw the highlights on the objectives at all; that could just be me, but who knows, it's hard to see due to being god damn RED (red being a color that's hard to see in the dark for multiple reasons, one being its easy on the eyes). While yes, most horror games are like that, why not break from the mold and try something new, that's what most of us say. Scary is subjective so don't even try and bring that up. While yes, it is inspired, doesn't make it immune to it; it's clear where the inspiration came from to the point where it just feels the same. "Stop criticizing games just to get the attention," that's the point of UA-cam, getting recognition and attention for your work; there was no need to add that in.
@@cheesydubblestheiii The red highlight is not that dark it’s bright red easy enough to see and you say don’t bring it what which i should because it proves the point that the base is not a maze. And when you said inspired I think you mean by the survival mode and I don’t know why people criticize chain for being a rake copy when it’s obviously not the entire game itself. I also look into some other people saying it’s mostly to loud which i’m lying is pretty loud but there’s a disclaimer for literally everything when you first play the chapter 1. The entire thing for the revamp was just to revamp the game because it got taken down. All the guy says in the video is just how the game is bad and not even good evidence. Also if you say how criticizing something is how youtube works then you never been on youtube long enough to realize the whole point of youtube is too make video to entertain people.
I played it with my friends and the experience was exactly how you described it, except we didn't explore the classic. If a 13yo that gets entertained by flashing lights on a screen can see through the graphics and gore that the game is shit, it's better if you just scrap the game entirely.
Just letting y’all know, in my opinion chain is a really good game. I really think it has a lot of potential and also chain is op because he is a DEMON. Look at the fandom he’s a demon from hell, the mask is a curse that what makes him that fucking strong 👍🏾
You should talk about "Paralysis" in your next video, its like a fnaf game on roblox but with some different mechanics, good lore and i think its a nice game
If you are wondering how chain was able to beat an entire military base, chain is canonically from hell and the mask grants him immortality as well as a major powerboost, he was so much of a threat that the military started developing enhanced cyborgs as seen at the end of survival mode.
They are revamping chapter 1 after they release chapter 2, they also updated survival, also the lore is in the discord server incase you wanna maybe do a little short video on that
Yikes, I was about to play this game just the other day with some friends (until someone suggested we'd go to SCP-3008), guess we dodged a bullet of stress there, I didn't even connect the dots this was related to that old version of the game with the wild west level and fuses, which was not fun at all, ironically 'cause the main murderer is plain annoying
Honestly, Chains a good game (IMO), sure its not "boundary breaking" stuff, and i understand most of its kinda.. horrible, but it has some things with it that actually good, such as its quality, the killer.. thats kinda it ngl, i'm pretty sure the Chapter 2's gonna be a giant patch for your issues atm, with the trailer showing stuff that will fix 60% of your problems.
this CHAIN was truly covered in Guts and Blackpowder by the Intruder and caused it to awaken the Silent Dark and Massacred the military base and its Residence before a robloxian appeared and unsheathed his Blade Ball to defeat it before using the Rust Machine to finish off CHAIN
Bravo Vince! 👏🎬
This is the Roblox horror equivalent of “Guys this is so jumbo josh rizz grimace shake funny, don’t be cringe and upvote this wholesome meme”
And before anyone goes “oh what about blade ball”, it’s simple. Greedy practices are real life horror
this is truly the midnight CHAIN experience 💯
why does your pfp look like depth from doors
@@Breadian YOU JUST SAID killer fish from san diego LOOKS LIKE SILLY DOORS ENTITY???
Chain seems like the middle ground between "the Mimic" genre (walk around a confusing location and solve puzzles) minus the puzzle part while mixed with "maze horror" a.k.a. you are locked in a maze with some kind of a monster. You collect stuff, bring stuff to x location, rinse and repeat. It does become irritating around the "abandoned town" part where it's very hard to find the last few gas cans. Otherwise it's just plain generic and belongs to the 2012 horror era. It also doesn't help that guy with a chainsaw is scary for around 3-4 encounters/chases, afterwards he's just an annoyance
mimic got no mazes anymore
@@ihavefluffcats2471book 1 still has mazes even after the remake

@@Vitorbr_gamesofcial literally just Jason Voorhees lmfao
@@Vitorbr_gamesofciallet me guess, he’s afraid of water
it's funny. i think this game has a lot of potential, but i get the feeling that the developers are too afraid to try anything new. i joined the discord server for updates, sneak peaks etc. and right after this video came out, i saw literally no one agreeing with ANYTHING you said. all anyone could say was "keep on yappin" and "all i can hear is circus music" (with a developer saying "he's just a loser" and "haters will hate") without actually explaining why anything you said was wrong.

@@bruhmanjoebruh2379They probably backpedaled.
It's so sad because instead of using this advice to their advantage they wanna play dumb and the fans (albeit prob young) don't wanna hear criticism and wanna pretend like the game is perfect when it's far from it which gets absolutely no one anywhere and makes people despise the community more. (tbh this is how bad communities form)
My problem with Chain is how overpowered the killer is in chapter 1. Running is almost impossible, and the dodge mechanic doesn't help you at all. I died so much that I stopped getting scared by the screams of the killer because I didn't even know what was going on anymore.

Fact about the monster:
If you ever played the older version of Chain, there was a note that explained about how a cult: The dudes who made him, explained about how the curse made them resist conventional means. I’m ngl though, the game is the definition of
“Quality over Quantity, that doesn’t work.”
So true
the creator of the game said chapter 1 was a tutorial, that's the worst excuse i've ever heard
Do what ur saying is i cant get over a fucking tutorial stage????!??

@@vyron-topic9592I turned mine into a chain to make it longer
The same problem applies to Murder Mine. It’s just needlessly loud because they can’t scare anyone otherwise.
Murder Mine is short and sweet, unlike CHAIN which drags on for a long time composed of solely fetch quests
@@rogue_no it’s short, unless you miss the object that doesn’t even stick out from a background set piece. then it’s almost hours long. I played this game by myself first and then played with friends, and each time it was unbearable to find everything. It’s not sweet either, its actually the worst taste I’ve ever tasted.
@@rogue_nomore like short and sour
@@rep0rter689 You reminded me of the time when i first played it with my group of friends and we couldnt find the key at the very start, so we spent about 10-20 mins doing absolutely everything, except focus on finding the key. We found how to get on the roof, that was funny. Oh and then we spend like 5 mins purposefully dying to the spiders later on because we found that peak comedy.
I only think it’s loud because it’s probably like how puppet comic does their stuff. It can be quite loud in those games they make and I think that’s what they are trying to do. But that’s just what I think looking at puppet combo games with murder mine

a military base that's been completely destroyed by a chainsaw you say? are you sure we aint talking about slendytubbies 3?!
aint no way
even sounds completely ripped from it although the difference is Chainsaw dipsy went for a satellite station?
I like how they say hes immortal and immune to guns but in survival mode one of the effective weapons is a gun lmao.
@@Potatomaster10Ithat only stagger him
Ok so, cuz i know someones gonna say it so im gonna do it first, if guns or weapons stagger chain, that would mean the entire military base soldiers would just stunlock him by shooting him constantly. BUT he would activate bloodmoon which is exactly what happens if you keep attacking him on survival mode and he would zoom everywhere killing everyone.
This is just a expectation, pls no hate
a lot of roblox horror games that are considered "good" are just like this tbh, they look, really good considering most roblox games dont have effort put into graphics and what not, but thats it, when it comes to the gameplay with these, it really lacks, and has a lot of holes, not only in plot and gameplay, but basically everything about the game.
alone tries to look all realistic and look similar to doors. But it's gameplay is SO BAD to the point where I died TWICE or more to the EXACT SAME GLITCH like the gameplay didn't even function with avatars.
@@Thecooldudenoob alone is such a shameless piece of slop it could honestly be awarded for its boldness
i mean, for obvious reasons.
if you think about it, a modeller has no connection or technical bounds with the scripter, but a animator or a UI Designer may involve themselves more with the scripter for the sake of compatibility and misc, (which is the reason you may see unconsistency with high building skill with low scripting skills),
so this isn't a problem that is going to change anytime soon. infact it can only get worse from there since buildings keeps getting easier
@@kenamii don't worry, I'm gonna change that. 😎 ( I have no idea how to script)
I do wanna learn tho bc I wanna make a roblox game I think could be really fun and I have some gr8 ideas, I just don't know where to start with coding :(
I agree that chapter 1 and it’s legacy version can be quite repetitive, but I’m still excited for chapter 2 to come out. I feel like the 2/3 devs working on this game have some kind of goal and ambition, but they don’t really know how to get there yet. Regardless, I will continue to support this game every step of the way because just like Bredian over here, I’m a sucker for horror games, and even though that’s kinda fallen off for me in ROBLOX’s case (I wasn’t a huge fan of residents massacre) I will still continue to support horror games with good potential, in and out of ROBLOX
the truth is, as a dev myself i just try to make a good horror game based on how fun it is solo or multiplayer, but the issue is when i tried to get investors and devs to work with me, they just said to monitize the games and add trending stuff to it. Its not about the devs, but about the society in the dev groups
aren’t there only 2 devs
@HarambaeXelonmuskfanswhats wrong with a lobby system (honest question)
once thing to note is that you are correct that only 2/3 of the devs are working on the game as the og lead dev has left due to uni so his friend now manages the game and also on the og devs account and the og dev will probably never return as the dev stated himself in a discord message
Chapter 2 is the same but with the SCP foundation
the whole soul of the game feels like, it's trying to look serious and cinematic/polished (an example being the intro cutscene), but the core game being mediocre. style over substance basically.

@@aetoreousayo
Every roblox game uses the same chainsaw sound which is the chainsaw from L4D2 but for some reason nobody has decided to alter the audio so it's always ear-splittingly loud.
cuz the chainsaw sfx are meant to be a sound cue for when to dodge or block
It annoys me how chain is still above average because of how bad the horror genre is on Roblox
The insane graphics gave me a false first impression
Gameplay need work
its too boring. you run one place, he comes, you run, he goes after someone else, you camp, you win. they need a better combat system and a bigger map, higher stamina? i think yes, less damage so the chases are longer? i think yes@@sunsetsun9652
Chain is the only game to actually make me lean forward and put the volume on a single bar
The sound effects are so loud they actually cut out due to being too high of decibels
10:45 was an excellent statement. roblox is continuing the days when the "cutting edge" of horror was just games with high graphics and no fucking story. excellent channel man, you are awesome.
i know this is 8 month old but it does have a story
i cant wait until the sequel, CHAN, which will be the most disgusting Roblox Horror Game
are you sure, the MOST disgusting roblox horror game
6:00 I love how the game's incompetency at being scary was so bad that you guys were more focused on the floating flashlights rather than the cutscene climax where the killer got you
I played Chain for a bit, and I have only played the Survival Beta Testing, and to say that I like it would be an overstatement.
The map is cool and nice to travel on your free time, and the amount of detail they put into everything, including say the dead bodies or just the run down structures is gorgeous. But apart from that, I felt like my ears were constantly aching from the amount of times I heard the Chainsaw man and it was far away, which made me fall into a false sense of security UNTIL the Chainsaw man was actually chasing me. And even then being chased just sucks.
First of all, you have this strong red static effect that makes you more blind than actually make you see, and combined with the fact that the flashlight lowers when you sprint just adds pain to the cake. Despite you running miles away from Chainsaw man, he will still catch up to you and kill you if you run out of stamina which I find bullshit, and there is also some dodge mechanic that I cannot be bothered to remember the bind of from the top of my head in a chase.
Second, if you happen to have a Machete or a Deagle looted, you can pull out those weapons and fight back. But the thing is that it's pointless, as he has no real hp pool, so your best shot is just doing the Block or stunning the Chainsaw for a bit to run. Problem is; you can't switch them out in a reasonable timeframe, because if you do try it, you would essentially waste 5 seconds putting away and taking out another item due to the animations and input lag of some sort. Which is really annoying when you want to live.
Now again the game is good and looks good, but because of the issues I can't bring myself to play this game, because of *loud noises as if they put the soundvolume in Studio to 5 and left it at that.* And also the game's fun value just dies when you are walking and nothing is happening while you hear people with Machete blocking Chainsaw man's attacks.
That's my whole experience of Chain, and I can confidently see why I don't like the game from watching this video-
hi red
when i first played Chain, i had to force myself to finish it because it was such an annoyance to go through. the killer was extremely loud and frustrating to run away from.
What do you expect when a chain saw is turned on
Please unlock the new human activity (watching breadian)
you must be patient...............
Tbh, I agree with u, I do think chain is a really pissing game , especially survival but it’s mainly bc the game just relys so much on running and conserving stamina, and chapter 1 story was just far worse, u just constantly crouch and have to find the generators and if u get caught, then ur practically dead since it’s pretty much a maze, but the music used did hook me in a bit. However, the thing I really love about chain is combat, it’s like playing a battleground game but with just m1s and block, and I love how it’s not just “press block”, but even after u activate block, you have to spam “F” which adds interaction. And with the new survival final update, they did a great job with adding a new ending and the spellbook animation is just amazing and satisfying. And even adding choke which again adds more interaction. But overall, chain is a game with potential but lacks trying out new stuff
yeah i agree and chapter 1 is getting a revamp when chapter 2 releases i think
it makes me so annoyed when a game like chain is so well made well animated and everything is visually fine tuned to perfection yet the game itself is just not good
To be honest, what really got me hooked onto chain was the combat, i think its pretty cool that the survival horror game actually lets you fight back. (not talking about story mode obviously)
and without the combat, i genuinely think that i probably would've just played for a couple minutes and stopped playing forever after dying like you said.
Overall, im not really a critic who complains because one particle of dust looks out of place, so its not really a big deal to me as it is for a few people who are.
They added combat?
Idk bc i didn't joined this game a long time ago
this game is visually great but I can defiantly agree with the loud sounds and annoyances darkness and all that I saw some leaks for chapter 2 and the game looks really good they also fixed some of the issues in chapter 2 like the flashlight and other things
The survival mode is more enjoyable imo.
The best part of the game is just a cutscene. The chainsaw sound is just insufferable so the cutscene is not even worth it.
Puppet Combo is a terrible role model for horror game devs because I don't want my fucking eardrums blown out.
Puppet combo has been releasing a lot of ass games lately
@@seth1571 facts
night ripper was a pretty good one imo, but after that the rest are just loud sounds that come with a game
CHAIN is a perfect example of a roblox horror game that people say is amazing just because it has pretty cutscenes and it’s gory. Like the gore is cool, but it’s super hard to even see in the cutscenes cause it’s so damn dark. And it’s boring as hell, but peoples think it’s cool because it’s “EdGY”. Like there is genuine talent on this platform and truly amazing experiences can be made and do exist, just seems like most people are too scared to make that step in fear that there game will fall into obscurity and make no money.
It's sad because it looks so good but makes itself fall into a generic fetch quest horror game
@@Jcoleot i was always trying to think of a good term for those horror games where the whole objective is "find thing, use thing, win game" and fetch quest is perfect. tbh i only play those games because i'm bored or want to see the story behind it, i already know what i'm in for once i need a "key" for something.
@@m03 same here except the only ones I really like to play are the maze games but many of those get really annoying and tedious like color or die. Only one I recommend is the OG game cheese maze
@@Jcoleot yeah cheese escape was fun when i played it. color or die was ok, definitely tedious. i also like the horror games where you need to survive something somehow. the intruder is pretty fun. night watch was good but difficult at times, it took me a little while to complete the final night. doors is also fun for a replayable game, more so with all the new modifiers to make the game more difficult now.
Night Watch was really good, very intense and challenging

Administrator for chain here. The reason why the military base fell to chain was because he’s immortal, bullets won’t do any good and they’ll just bounce right off of him. Chain can only be HURT physically by dark magic as spree said. You can also kill him via banishing through ritual. Don’t ask me much about the lore, since spree’s the one who works on it. The gameplay it self I get why people can find it annoying after dying multiple times, but the game is still in beta meaning there are more stuff to come out such as chapter 2 and a DBD mode itself. But hey, that’s your opinion about the game and I’ve got nothing against it lol.
waiting for the vid maker to read this
If he can only be hurt physically by dark magic.. why do the machetes work in Survival?
@@SaintlyGold The only reason machetes were brought into survival was because they work as a defense mechanism (devs correct me if I’m wrong.) to actually give the player a bit of a fighting chance at defending them selves, as it only staggers him when blocking or parrying his attacks. (it wasn’t really meant to be as a "combat" weapon to attack him but it’s whatever.) block and run. Or you could just block hit and run. In reality, you wouldn’t even be able to touch chain. If you tried attacking him hand-to-hand combat, he’d instantly kill you the first time.
@@SaintlyGoldehhh idk, silly survival mode ig
@DivinityLV I got a problem, why stun grenades don't stun him, and in the safehouse, Chain runs through the bear trap
i got so incredibly lost on this game that i somehow got out of bounds unknowingly and walked to the edge the map. i then proceeded to jump off and never played the game since.
I played this before the revamp even happened but instead of playing with friends, I played it solo and the monster's ai is literally so annoying it's like fighting the AI of the early mortal kombat games, they let you win if they feel like it
At first, I was a bit immersed and sucked in the game because with such visuals I'd think it'd have the potential to be a great horror game and I was so, so wrong. It took me so much time to get through the military base part and it'd let you retry as many times as you want but the more I died the more frustrated I got instead of being scared. Once the chainsaw guy sees you, it's all over or your progress gets set back SIGNIFICANTLY. Because those 2 maps didn't have as much hiding spots or I just missed them because the ai's range of detecting you is cheating because you'd never see him the moment you get spotted I just did the right thing and never played it again. Seriously, what were they thinking making the maps so open and with little to no hiding spots to go through?
the ai is roblox fault lmao
The only thing i can agree with is the fact you have a skill issue and the game is ez af

Speaking of Roblox horror games, I just wanted to know if you're planning on checking out Break-In 2 sometime in the near future.
The first Break-In was pretty successful when it came out years back, so I was wondering if you would take a look at its long-awaited sequel.
I played the first break in quite a bit, and got the secret ending and everything. But, I only played break in 2 once. I just didn’t feel the same about it, so idk if I should do a video
break in and break in 2 is not a horror game. even if they were trying to they have failed miserably. i played break in 2 and its a pretty nice game, i can see the effort they put into it and i overall like the bosses and gameplay of it
@@topatapotI don't think they're going for horror, more just thriller if anything maybe.
@@ToasterBath yeah your right
There is a few exceptions when horror games don’t scare you. For example, doors is one of my favorite games on the platform and it never really scared me, Chain was also never really scary, but it kinda sucks. There is an easy difference between those two games. One is not scary but really good, however the other one is not scary but unfortunately it sucks. Big fan bro keep up the good work!
Survival is much more entertaining, as for the story mode it is very mid. I only play it for the survival mode because it’s just Rake but better.

i may be quite late, well, very late since this was 5 months ago, i kind of agree with your opinion, Chain has a peak potential to this game, only reason why i love Chain because of their animations, cut scenes, graphics, etc etc.. gameplay of the story is truly a meh, me and my friends took 1hr to progress but we never finished it (some disconnected, some gtg, some just left), i do hope they give some developments on that, like a plot, and a way of defending yourself than just dodging, and better things to do than just doing objectives then going through dark big long ass mazes, yk? i'm not talking about the Survival since defending yourself there is a thing, but it's about the Story
highly no offense, if some of you are big fan of Chain, or you're one of the devs reading this
Being honest, I kinda enjoyed chain before checking the official discord server and watching this video, whenever there was the military section i was also wondering "how the hell did chain take down the whole military base?" (Btw yes the name of the monster is chain) and after some time i joined the discord server and honestly the stuff devs confirmed is just dissapointing, yes chain is immortal but can also resist a lot to guns, so he doesn't feel hurt n' stuff, which already makes the lore boring IMO (i'll explain later) and also the mask gives chain all his stuff such as power and resistence (and the mask was created by the devil and used by many people, the power and stuff from these people stacked into the mask), not only that but we will have more threats too.
However another thing you can noticed in the discord server is that the devs are way too hungry in making chain be a powerful thing, there's an animation with chain vs chainsawman and guess what, chain survives without a problem.
But honestly it's just fucked up, in "chapter 2 leak" video posted by a dev in the thumb you see a dude shooting at chain, and this is where the immortal bullshit messes up the game, you will know that no matter what they use, chain will still be fine and murdering people, only banishing him will work (confirmed by a dev), this hunger for making chain strong is destroying the game, the laziness is, you see even the sound chain makes is from another game (cry of fear), also small fix, chain does keep his chainsaw off in the revamp, there was one time i was crouching and he was passing by with if off, he just turns it on really quick. Also another nonsense thing is that his vision his worse with the mask, but how if it's really powerfull and created by the devil?
Sorry for the huge text but also it feels like not even the devs and staff knows what to do, we know chain can be defeated by banishing him but here's another catch, a staff said you can only defeat chain if he's without is mask, ok. But then another staff once said in a suggestions channel that only holy stuff can defeat him but "it's not like you could banish him"... really? Do they even know what they are doing with their own fucking game? Anyways i hope @breadian sees this since it explains a lot of stuff
Oh and also another thing to mention: the protagonist is a "skilled" PMC and a former soldier and also had a "skilled" team that was ambushed
I'm glad I found this cus I had no idea about what chains power came from or how powerful he is. Now that I found this out I can wholeheartedly say that is so fucking stupid. All they had to say was he isn't immortal though he has super resistance or smth similar to Mr X from Re2 and it would've been a whole lot better. The bullshit with the mask is also just unnecessary they definitely just said that for the sake of making chain seem all the more powerful. I agree the devs are just making chain overpowered for sake of being overpowered. He doesn't need these things to be tough and scary just make him some sort of maniac or biological weapon that has huge resistance and speed and it would be infinitely better than whatever they came up with. Idk why I went on a rant, I liked the game just kinda pisses me off that they're making him powerful and using the dumbest reasons to do so. The holy weapons thing is also just dumb
@@Uncannyskeletons man i totally agree with you, like your mr x example, i really like how he's built, tall dude that stalks the player whenever he spots, using an armored coat, but by the end a single shot of a rocket puts him down
@@Vitorbr_gamesofcial exactly works much better than an immortal enemy. Like it feels immortal but with enough firepower it will eventually go down.
@@Uncannyskeletons just to mention idk if mr x coat is actually armored, i just mentioned that since in the boss fight his coat has been destroyed.
Okay, I get chapter 1 may not be that good, but when their new survival gamemode, and chapter 2 releases, you definitely need to play it, I mean I had hella fun playing survival in early access with my friends bro.
i do disagree with your stance on survival mode
due to the fact that most of the items are accessible from the shop and it's harder to get away from chain on average, it's actually pretty scary when he walks outside of the building you're in and you have to predict when he runs in so you can stun him and run away
Im an avid chain player, I mostly find myself playing survival because the story modes disappointed me Incredibly. Chain is a game where it has a lot of issues but the devs dont really hot-fix it, they wait until the next update to do that, even then.. the game is still really buggy. Survival is the buggiest gamemode I've ever seen, you won't last one round without seeing him struggle to navigate past a tree, or his ai just completely breaks itself by just spawning or running into the safe house door. Dodging is pretty much useless if you don't have a weaopon or help around you, at least in survival because you'll run out of stamina before you can get 4 dodges off. The blizzard gimmick is abnormally terrible and you can't see 3 feet infront of you, meaning chain can see you before you can see him. His bloodmoon phase can be easily avoided by going to a small shack and getting him stuck on the tree, his model and hitbox grows larger meaning he can't do anything other than be stuck on a tree. He is only a threat when he's buggy or he gets the speed boost bug. Also the dev saying him being buggy is "intentional" should say it all.
Edit: Game passes are pretty much useless and the volume still being loud at 1 is just the cherry on top.
hey Bread! i'm glad you made a video on this game. i've seen many playthroughs of it, and it looks visually appealing. the actual game though, is uh...not that good. i personally didn't find much wrong with the game, but your video really brought some things to my mind. keep up the good work! your content is fire 🔥🔥

Yeah, story kind of sucks, but I play it solely for the survival mode.
exactly, this guy has no idea what hes talking about when it comes to survival, its repetitive and the map and alot of things need improvement but all he talks about is the story, and hes saying its a worse rake?? Its better in my opinion.@@Mr.NobodyOfficial
@@netx7377 Thank you, finally someone agrees, one other dude told me that the mechanics can be ‘too complex to learn’.
Ik this was 4 months ago but they came out with an updated version so now they have guns the guns actually damage him causing him to be stunned. He is also an demonic killer (I mean duh look at the pentagram he gets summoned by)
idk if its just a skill issue but when the game first came out during its early days you were able to actually successfully escape the cry of fear chainsaw guy but now when i played it recently i was legit not able to escape it atleast once, if it spotted me there was basically no reason to escape because it felt like it knew where i was at all times during chase, even if i looped a container or a military camp hut thing, it legit wouldnt of matter because it would still find me even if i ran away from the area it was chasing me in
You are not the only one,i tried to outrun him multiple times and he Just maneged to kill me every single time

Personally, I enjoyed the gore and cutscenes and thought the animation was well-done. However, I can agree with you on the gameplay itself. Its still in early access, so let's hope some changes to the gameplay would be made.
To top the cherry off, apparently hes immortal and nothing phases him and guns are useless, so why does survival mode have a desert eagle as a option to attack him? Ah yes, very good logic.
the deagle literally doesn't hurt him, it just stuns him
@@Cosmicfear101It does hurt and stun him, it does 2-3 damage per shot.
And whats more funny is a machete can literally weaken him and damage him lol
I like chain because i think it has somewhat realistic sprint, the dodge mechanic could definitely be tweaked, it is definitely on my top horror game list, cant wait for chapter 2 to come out!
Realistic? What about it is realistic. The amount of time you can sprint? If so, first off, I feel sad for you if you can't even sprint for 15 seconds, but it's not really realistic. What do you mean by realistic though.

I don't mean any offense, but I kinda wish your review was more constructive. I played CHAIN not too long ago and I do agree with a lot of your points, the loudness, darkness, unoriginal gameplay, unclear direction, etc. However, I personally think the pros in CHAIN like the cutscenes, graphics, gimmick, and antagonist give the game the potential to be better and make room for the developers to learn and experiment with as the game is still in development, and despite the pay to revive I doubt they are as greedy and careless as other developers on Roblox. It just felt like 40% of your review were valid criticisms and 60% was just pointlessly dunking on the game, which I personally find ironic considering its a review that (at least I'd hope so) is meant for the developers to improve on. Again, I don't mean any offense, just wish your review was more constructive.
Finally someone noticed how most of the video was trash talk.
Dude,there is nothing more to criticize. literally all you do in the game is turn on some generators while running from a dude with a chainsaw. that's it
@@rodrigomusicman1871 Well explained, though the games still done better than any other horror roblox game ive played. Why are you all treating it like it was made by a AAA studio.

@@nardezywhat about indie games
@@nardezy also want roblox YT that worser then Breadian that is eclipse
I think CHAIN is alright. Some things dont make sense, but other things can be pretty good. Early survival was kinda bad, but it recently got an update that kinda helped boost survival. The devs themselves have also said that Chapter 1 wasn't really supposed to be the best as it was rushed and they wanted to show us the mechanics for when Chapter 2 comes out. Obviously Chapter 1 isn't that good at all, but you gotta understand that this game is being made by 2 seniors.
I am caught in a weird amalgamation of emotions right now. I always praised Chain for its scary monster, it’s atmosphere, graphics. But now after watching this video, I’ve kinda lost hope for chain. There making Chain so powerful that he’s basically just becoming a god and less scary. And I feel like they need to make chapter 1 and survival more original. Maybe survival could have the same gimmick as the rake but more fleshed out and unique to separate itself from the Rake, such as maybe a new map and new mechanics. I honestly disagree with Breadian here even after I’ve agreed with him so many times. The game does have potential to be scary and a good horror game, if so many mechanics and shit weren’t borrowed from other games. I really hope the devs change there game and make chapter 2 something that is a actually original, scary and entertaining. If they don’t, I’m giving up on the game in its entirely 🙃
After the new survival update it is much better.
@@Mr.NobodyOfficial how do u play the survival mode? Or it's on a different game?
@@lnomata5470 It’s a separate mode in the menu that you can find.
Honestly, about the problem when there’s a hiding spot inside the house, you can outrun him. But you have to prepare your ear because the chase theme is still played even chain can’t find you.
The only excuse everyone would use is "visuals". thats it, nothing else.
The military base should have just near ranger towers. Theres only so much you could do to suspend belief with literal machineguns that WILL tear this silly man into pieces, whether he dies or not. Plus more actual isolation would feel better
A lot of "underrated" roblox games are like Chain, they look good on the surface but lacks actual gameplay and are just plain boring
Survival is more enjoyable than the story imo.
I think most of these points fall flat in the sense of “should’ve been more realistic.” this isn’t saying there’s no massive flaws (the gameplay, life monetization, excessive loud noises). however I feel the reason so many people have faith in the game is because of how much passion there is for a slasher game on ROBLOX of all places. the game doesn’t NEED to make sense. and it’s only because it’s a silly little jason clone with a chainsaw. yeah he’s stupid and makes no sense but that’s what’s funny about slashers. I do however believe the gameplay needs work. every player to ever exist is tired of fetch quests.
but I’ll give credit where it’s due, the animations are beautiful and the cutscenes are reliable. the killer is memorable (visibly) and the game tries to do something new with stylization
To be fair it’s just 2 devs who are in high school
1* the other quited
indie game ≠ free from criticizm
Never let him rate ever again💀🙏

@@animebeastmasterpro67 fr story mode sucks survival mode is the only reason i play this game
chain has good potential but holy shit the game is so fucking dark i like the game but they need to fr increase the brightness or make the lighting better
Chain lore: You were once a soldier, but after leaving the military, you found work as a private military contractor. You were good at what you did, and over the years, you gained a reputation for being one of the best in the business. That's why you weren't surprised when a wealthy corporation approached you with a high-stakes mission to neutralize a dangerous target. You were confident in your skills and experience, but you knew that you couldn't do it alone. So you hand-picked a team of skilled and hardened mercenaries to accompany you on the mission. The team was made up of people you had worked with before, and you trusted them implicitly. The mission began well, and you were making good progress towards your objective. But then, everything went wrong. Your team was ambushed by a mysterious and unknown group. At first, you thought it was just another group of mercenaries hired to protect the target, but then you realized that they were your own team. In the confusion and chaos of the attack, you were knocked unconscious, and when you woke up, you found yourself in a dirty and broken cabin. The people who had rescued you were all dead, and you quickly realized that you had been betrayed. The details of what had happened were hazy and uncertain, but you knew that you had to get out of there. You stumbled outside, disoriented and desperate for help, and that's when you came across a nearby military base that had been recently attacked by "IT." The base was in shambles, and you found almost everyone dead. You began to piece together the events that led to this horrific massacre and discovered that the military base was actually a private military company, hired by the same corporation that had contracted you. Their mission was to neutralize "IT," who had been causing havoc and destruction in the surrounding area. "IT" was a cursed individual, forced into the labor of "THEM." You didn't know what that meant, but you knew that "IT" was dangerous and that you had to stop them, almost being impossible due to the amount of power and sheer damage they could do. Using one chainsaw, being able to wipe an entire military base, clean. As you wandered throughout the base, desperately searching for a way to contact the outside world and get help, you realized that your own mission may have been part of a larger, more sinister scheme. You were starting to connect the dots and realized that the corporation you were working for might not have had your best interests at heart. As you struggled to restore power to the generators and regain access to the towers and radios, you were met with increasingly violent resistance from "IT." It was clear that "IT" was not going to let you leave the base alive. Despite your skills and experience, you were eventually overwhelmed and mortally wounded. As you slipped away from your life, you left behind a legacy of horror, a life, passed down to another soul. The mask is what makes CHAIN himself, the mask has existed over eons, being cursed and being put on sinners. The human inside the masks possession is still alive, feeling everything, and seeing everything. The mask picks up experience from eons of people being cursed, taking fighting experience, iq, resistance, willpower, and the desire to kill. The mask was handy-work from the devil, being brought upon the Earth that a cult has guarded it for centuries. The mask itself grants near immortality, inhumane strength, speed, agility, dexterity, and more. The weapons that the mask uses is brought upon what the sinner does on a daily basis. "CHAIN" being an insane lumberjack mass murderer that favors in killing his victims with a chainsaw. Now being manifested into what he is now.
I honestly think you're being way too harsh with the game. Yes it certainly isnt an unique experience but you cannot deny there was actual effort put into this demo. Lighting, animation, coding, sound design, all of thoses things take time and i know a bit of what i'm talking about since i've been using roblox studio for 4 years. I think you're being too harsh to the developers just sharing what they're proud of. This all stays my opinion thought, you might know something that i dont
same, but i disagree with some things
the lighting, animations and sound design should not be put before the gameplay
@@starlighted_goob i agree, however i still think it's much appreciable. And honestly the gameplay is really not that bad. There's some issues when playing with a lot of poeple but overall it's pretty good. Yes it is not original, but it doesnt make it bad.

You should try reviewing a game called “randomly generated droids”
It’s not a horror game but review it 😈
(It’s by JustEnoughIdeas btw)
its a great game but theres no reason to play with random people because its sucks to play with random people; in most games it doesnt really matter if youre playing w friends or strangers because usually the game is easy enough for everyone but here its seriously recommended to go solo; even then people who are good at solo sometimes never learn how to actually do teamwork (and dont bother to because they are already good at solo) leading to a lot of people just doing things like dropping you in water/lava, stealing aggro (annoying and usually ends up bad due to lag [droids are client side methinks]) not making potions for their team so they can have more survivavility, etc.
also the problem with carrying is the fact that some people get carried to a ascension far out of their reach which causes them to not be able to do it on their own which just leads them to want to be carried more or just end up leaving so; if you are a active player, please try discouraging carrying, just ends up hurting players more than it helps them tbh.
It's more fun in survival with The Rake vibes, as someone who didn't finish the chapter 1
i dont get why people are mad at the people behind chain because are they are saying" haters will hate'' etc. you are saying that the game is "shit'' imagine if you made a game that was quite bland but good and people are say that your game is poop ofc you wouldn't listen because they are saying your game is garbage! at LEAST say it in a way that is not randomly rude you can still critique it but not just be blatantly rude . "wow, what a shitty game that was" thats not critiquing the game that being rude and thats whats shitty.
i still genuinely like the game bc the atmosphere and everything makes it really fun (it is pretty mid tho sometimes) and also it would be a lot more cramped if we just stayed inside the story mode map so it makes sense (also they probably didn't have many options)
The game has potential.But it has its flaws.
I got lost with the map, accidentally went out of bounds
There's a crouching mechanism which is told at the beginning. using this in a corner with no closets since your friends or other players got them first keeps you safe since "chain" is sorta blind and the survival mode is kind of like the rake but with guns and more mechanisms like blocking with a machete or something of the sort.

Chain has a weakness bcuz when you circle around a object fast enoough. You will escape chain since he isnt smart
You say the map is too hard and confused of what to look for when it’s gives you objectives and even highlights the generators for you the chapter 1 is literally a tutorial and the reason you can kill him is because it’s not the military that’s bad it’s just that he’s a superhuman being with insane agility, strength, durability and other and also just press tab to see the objective so stop tapping about little of things can calling chain “one of those games” where you have to run around looking for things which is literally almost every horror game and it’s what makes it scary you never know when things will happen literally yapping about nothing and he survival mode isn’t even really supposed to be there it was intentionally there to keep the fun of the game going while they work on chapter 2 and isn’t a “copy of the take” it’s an inspiration so quit the tapping and learn some shit for once
You also say it’s the same as before referring to the legacy version which this is a revamp so yeah things may be the same but they just revamped it so literally just stop the useless yapping and stop criticizing games just to get the attention out of now have a good day
You point it shit beginning
Why the fuck is there no periods in your paragraph to break it up.
So, I'll come in to defend him.
I'm not going to lie, I never saw the highlights on the objectives at all; that could just be me, but who knows, it's hard to see due to being god damn RED (red being a color that's hard to see in the dark for multiple reasons, one being its easy on the eyes). While yes, most horror games are like that, why not break from the mold and try something new, that's what most of us say. Scary is subjective so don't even try and bring that up. While yes, it is inspired, doesn't make it immune to it; it's clear where the inspiration came from to the point where it just feels the same.
"Stop criticizing games just to get the attention," that's the point of UA-cam, getting recognition and attention for your work; there was no need to add that in.
@@cheesydubblestheiii The red highlight is not that dark it’s bright red easy enough to see and you say don’t bring it what which i should because it proves the point that the base is not a maze. And when you said inspired I think you mean by the survival mode and I don’t know why people criticize chain for being a rake copy when it’s obviously not the entire game itself. I also look into some other people saying it’s mostly to loud which i’m lying is pretty loud but there’s a disclaimer for literally everything when you first play the chapter 1. The entire thing for the revamp was just to revamp the game because it got taken down. All the guy says in the video is just how the game is bad and not even good evidence.
Also if you say how criticizing something is how youtube works then you never been on youtube long enough to realize the whole point of youtube is too make video to entertain people.
I played it with my friends and the experience was exactly how you described it, except we didn't explore the classic. If a 13yo that gets entertained by flashing lights on a screen can see through the graphics and gore that the game is shit, it's better if you just scrap the game entirely.

They put “quality” over quality
You should talk about "Paralysis" in your next video, its like a fnaf game on roblox but with some different mechanics, good lore and i think its a nice game
although the chainsaw turn off thing was dumb he does do it in the new survival mode
I can’t stop laughing “did you even play you own game”😂
If you are wondering how chain was able to beat an entire military base, chain is canonically from hell and the mask grants him immortality as well as a major powerboost, he was so much of a threat that the military started developing enhanced cyborgs as seen at the end of survival mode.

They are revamping chapter 1 after they release chapter 2, they also updated survival, also the lore is in the discord server incase you wanna maybe do a little short video on that
Yikes, I was about to play this game just the other day with some friends (until someone suggested we'd go to SCP-3008), guess we dodged a bullet of stress there, I didn't even connect the dots this was related to that old version of the game with the wild west level and fuses, which was not fun at all, ironically 'cause the main murderer is plain annoying
Honestly, Chains a good game (IMO), sure its not "boundary breaking" stuff, and i understand most of its kinda.. horrible, but it has some things with it that actually good, such as its quality, the killer.. thats kinda it ngl, i'm pretty sure the Chapter 2's gonna be a giant patch for your issues atm, with the trailer showing stuff that will fix 60% of your problems.
