Yeah, I was cynical, but when I was watching that bit where ASGARD 1 appeared on the screen, the pistol shots and reloads happened; and I hit pause and searched for the game on steam. I'm probably over-music-trained for most years (12+ years of classical piano training will do that), but I could instantly feel what it was going for. And this is someone who usually plays his games in silence since he doesn't really think game music/sfx really adds much to the experience for most games. :/
@@Exel3nce Hey, some people actually enjoy Roguelikes, example being Enter the Gungeon, yeah not similar to this in the slightest but hey, just because it doesn't sit well with you doesn't mean it doesn't for everyone else
"We're being very selective to who we send it to due to difficulty" I think you missed their point in saying this. They don't want to send it to people who can't pass the tutorial in most games, AKA, the average video game journalist.
This looks absolutely sick. From that first clip of the Rhythmic shots with the Reload had me immediately sold. Something about that feedback is just perfect and I can't wait to get my hands on this in the future.
Yeah, I really think they're on to something here. As you said, the feedback and snappiness just look perfect. One of the few things I've seen recently where I'm like "I _will_ play that, probably on release." Also, I'm a musician, so I can't wait to make beautiful music via ruthless carnage :D
I worked with David (the main programmer for BPM) for a few years at the studio he started, which I'm still working at. He's a fantastic guy, excellent programmer and always has the coolest ideas. Excited to give this a try!
@Yurt The Silent Chief How is being shown a title, watching some gameplay, and deciding to buy it because it looks cool, "not having a mind of your own"? What a massive troll.
That guitar really is shredding. I really hope they release the soundtrack alongside this, because i could see this having some bangers to include in Clone Hero or even to just bring over to Crypt of the Necrodancer, in addition to this game.
Imagine them allowing for modding where players can create their own guns, levels and music. Could be endless gameplay possibilities. It already has great music imo tho.
I saw your video on Twitter and I see this as a perfect contender with Superhot among the most innovative first-person shooters. This is literally Doom with Crypt of the Necrodancer. I do agree with the filters, I don't know why they went for it but it's not as bad as Hellbound where any sort of powerup blurs your vision making you even more vulnerable because you don't know where you're going (a supposedly 90's first-person shooter). You spoke a lot about the importance of the core gameplay loop and, honestly, this is it right here: the devs seem to have a precise idea of what they wanted to do and they seem to have nailed it in execution. I'm definitely getting this game.
This looks like one of those rare games where when you play it for less than a minute, the game immediately grabs you and you realize this is going to end up being something special. Didn't even know this game existed but thanks to this video, I've now wishlisted it on Steam.
Yo! That grim reaper boss is actually Sevarog from Paragon! Really cool to see those assets being used in other projects after Epic Games released them for free post Paragon. Still miss the game though, but it’s fun to see its characters popping up in other small projects.
didn't notice i'd had a smile on my face until maybe 5 mins into the video. the way the effects line up with the awesome soundtrack is the satisfaction that has been missing in my life. damn
i know i say that under nearly every video of you but you are just the best reviewer and one of the best youtubers out there. i would have never thought i would ever watch REVIEWS mainly because of the person making them. i watch every single one of your videos completely, even if i don't care about the game, and everything you are hyped about i'm immediately hyped about too. i COMPLETELY trust your reviews and your passion just jumps over to me when i'm watching them. usually when i watch reviews i'm like "yeah, cool, maybe i will try that out one time" but after reviews like this one (or your runeterra review - that's how i found your channel and it's the best review i've ever watched in my life) i'm like "THIS IS THE BOMB I HAVE TO PLAY IT NOW" but i also love your negative reviews just as much because somehow, to me personally, you literally ALWAYS have the right opinion on everything. it's very rare that i'm so passionate about a youtube channel. please never change man. oh yeah, regarding the game: it just combines everything i love. doom, rogue like and rythm game, so i will definitely pick it up. and DAAAAYUM the soundtrack! whoever wrote it, work on the next doom please, now that mick gordon sadly is gone! this soundtrack will stay in my head for days even from just watching this video.
SkillUp is my reviewer of choice for current games and basically how I stay somewhat up to date with game. If you don't mind reviews for old and more oscure stuff, give Mandaloregaming a shot.
I just dislike it that sometimes people think that Ralph's review basically just shitting on some of the game that he reviews, when its basically just him being honest and giving his in-depth opinion and really critical about the game without putting big biased opinion on it. And its not like those opinions come in from a bad place, but those opinions comes out with a good intentions of improving what could have come after the review, but people nowadays can't really take criticism without getting offended in the first place.
When I was younger and dreamt about being a game dev this was pretty much exactly the game idea I came up with. Really happy that someone finally did it. Pistol Whip was similar but didn't quite get there for me (plus I definitely need some electric guitars in my rythm games). Can't wait.
Nah Baby Driver, while being a great movie is hardly the first piece of media to match action pacing to music. With video games there was The Metronomicon (2016) which is a turn-based RPG which rewards timing actions with the music, and Crypt of the NecroDancer (2015) which is a rogue-like rythm based monster slaying game. I'm sure there are probably even earlier examples.
Agreed! It looks *so* sick. This actually gives me an idea for a non-rhythm-based shooter mechanic as well - reloads where carefully timed button presses during key points can speed up the animation, like _right_ as you slam the mag in. If I ever get around to making a project I have in mind, I might have to add that!
@Phuong Dante TBH: Who. Cares. This isn't a competition of who came up with it first, it's a simple idea I thought of that's already been done because it makes sense.
I personally like the redness of everything, just from your video it made all the mobs and projectiles very clear and removed alot of could be visual noise. Its a very smart idea to lower the sheer amount of visual noise this game very much could had in past versions were it had a wider range of colours.
I couldn't help but watch this entire preview with a smile on my face. The sound during gameplay is just hilarious! I'm picturing Doomslayer in a ballet tutu.
The male's character model (Freyr) is Greystone from paragon.. glad he is being used in a good game for once. I miss paragon. oh it appears that a lot of paragon characters are here lol
Cool, it's nice to see these assets being used. They were given away for free for unreal engine a few years back. Not sure if they're still free. I wonder if they used elements of the paragon levels that were given away too.
Thank you for making this video. I saw the trailer for the game on Twitter and I instantly was hooked. Hopefully your video will give the game the attention it so deserves.
I love Pistol Whip, Beat Hazard, Guitar Hero, Doom... Man, this is straight up my alley😃 And those reloads. Oh, so satisfying! btw. Maybe the red color is the "Night blue filter" for those long sessions 😉
As someone who plays a lot of different instruments this game looks sick. I kinda wish the different weapons had different time signatures or say something that shoots faster would be sixteenth notes for example. Either way I’m excited.
Wonder if abilities will change up tempo or something too. So you activate it and there's crazy guitar riff or drum solo with you superhuman jump slamming enemies with every beat. So much potential to this game. Love It!
The game looks very fun to play. Like crypt of the Necrodancer, adding a rhythm element to an already solid game makes it click on a different level. Also, the sound design is on point.
if you are curious the filters on each level is to mask most of the assets come from other games and projects. for example the boss on the first floor is a character from the epic games moba Paragon
I can't play shooters and I dont think I'll learn how to do so with my current schedule. But dammit I can see when to appreciate good work for games. Thank you Skill Up for letting a wide variety of people to experience these otherwise unknown games in a way that's entertaining for people who don't play them.
The "red filter" is to mask the art, which is all free stuff from Epic's Paragon and Infinity Blade. Maybe now that everyone's in love with or interested in the game, they can hire some actual artists and get rid of the asset flip look and have a style befitting of the game they've created.
This looks absolutely sick and I just wish we had something like this in VR. I know Pistol Whip is a thing and it's really good, but this is on a whole another level. Here you are actually co-creating the music and not just shooting stuff on rails.
I think the reason you like it Ralph is because it's inherently satisfying to match things with the beat. I guess we're just wired that way, it's extremely satisfying to just watch the footage you've recorded, never mind actually playing it. It's not just you, and you're not alone. I want this game too tbh.
The clips of you've shown here are great. When I saw gameplay trailer of this game I wasn't really sold on the idea of rythm-based gunplay, but from your gameplay clips I really get the groove that devs were probably aiming for.
I want to see a multiplayer game like 5v5 or something where this kind of thing would be implemented. Everyone would have simple percussive sounds, but when both teams start firing gunshots, it would sound like an actual beat! Some of the instruments might even play notes or something. Individually, the weapons would seem bland, but a fast-paced rhythm-based shooter where everyone was shooting at the same time would result in amazing gameplay with consistently awesome music, and a different experience each time. Maybe each round, the song might even get faster! I feel like there's so much you can do with something like this :) Props to the team for making such a cool and creative concept/game
So, like, I'm a drummer and been playing fps games my whole life. I think I need to go clean myself right now, take a shower, you know. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
*IfeelitIfeelitIfeelit* This and THPS 1+2 are games I'm _genuinely_ excited for, and will probably pick up on or close to release _(Jedi: Fallen Order looks great and I haven't even played that yet, for perspective)_
i don't care about the damage of the , does it bang, is it fire, does it sound good? This is genius, imagine montages with the sound remixed in to songs, it would be an amazing feat that would take talent and would be entertaining. also it must be super satisfying , killing things is already satisfying but add music and its amazing . I already do that when im in the zone and listening to spotify while mindlessly grinding .
So this game looked cool, original, you know I still wasn't entirely sold... then you showed Asgard II for the first time and the music kicked in. HOLY SHIT! YEEEAH! I'll buy this once it comes out. I have a feeling this will become the new indie trend and it will revive rhythm genre.
@@solanumtuberosa Really cause I saw the map and realised that it was a rougelike before it was mentioned. Throw in the key,, coin, chest setup and if the abilities charge by per room clear then I would argue that it might be a bigger influence than Doom
9:37 You should ask the developers to put in a "Gun Sync"/recording studio mode where you can switch between all the weapons in the game to use as various instruments and create your own tracks
God, it must be so gratifying as a developer to see reactions like this. You work your ass off on a project you have no idea whether it will even work or if anyone will even see it, let alone like it, only to have people rant and rave about how amazing it is.

Ok, this is genius.
P.S. So we got two games inspiered by Doom and experimenting with beat mechanics. *Bullets Per Minute* and *Metal: Hellsinger*
Metal Hellsinger looks like to be ONLY shoot and ability beat use, while BPM is literally everything except WASD

This and THPS 1+2 are games I'm _genuinely_ excited for, and will probably pick up on or close to release
_(Jedi: Fallen Order looks great and I haven't even played that yet, for perspective)_
First off, this looks amazing!!! Second, they used the Severog character model from Paragon!!! 😍
I'm excited to see speedruns of this.
the soundtrack is so melodic, I love it.
Glad you like what you’ve heard so far! 🙏🤘
Just watching this “feels good”... it really makes me FEEL LIKE doom guy samurai.
DJ Doom guy SAMURAI
This concept is genius. Just watching it is a bop, I can't imagine what playing it feels like!
10:29 that's Sevarog from Paragon. Oh i miss Paragon.
I scrolled the comments for someone else who noticed this, haha
Yup, I noticed several old Paragon assets including Sev, Morigesh, Riktor, Iggy, Rampage, and Grux
They used several assets from Paragon including one of the buffs as a monster
Legit would play this game if they didn’t use Paragon assets. Seeing them not in Paragon hurts a bit.
@@andrewi4231 the player characters are Greystone and Valkyrie
I wish-listed this game right after you mentioned it in your last review :D Thanks for dropping it on my radar
i don't care about the damage of the , does it bang, is it fire, does it sound good? This is genius, imagine montages with the sound remixed in to songs, it would be an amazing feat that would take talent and would be entertaining. also it must be super satisfying , killing things is already satisfying but add music and its amazing . I already do that when im in the zone and listening to spotify while mindlessly grinding .
man iv actually watched this vid multiple times just to hear more of the music and gun beats in synch . Hyped for this game. thanks for covering it !
Speedruns of this game are gonna sound so dope
Gonna play this for sure. Looks awesome!
My neighbours will learn to love the music in this game.
So this game looked cool, original, you know I still wasn't entirely sold... then you showed Asgard II for the first time and the music kicked in. HOLY SHIT! YEEEAH! I'll buy this once it comes out. I have a feeling this will become the new indie trend and it will revive rhythm genre.
So, this is basically The Binding of Isaac + Doom: The Musical.
Doom: the musical. I would watch that
@@quinncamargo imagine Doom Guy and The Icon of Sin having a dance off. I’d definitely pay to see that.
I wouldn't say it resembles TBoI
@@solanumtuberosa Really cause I saw the map and realised that it was a rougelike before it was mentioned. Throw in the key,, coin, chest setup and if the abilities charge by per room clear then I would argue that it might be a bigger influence than Doom
@@booga-wx7cd true it's a roguelike and TBoI is one of the most famous ones, but that's where the resemblence ends. It's more akin to Necrodancer.
I honestly don't mind the color.
Maybe it's different when playing it but just watching it, I think it helps it standing out

You should ask the developers to put in a "Gun Sync"/recording studio mode where you can switch between all the weapons in the game to use as various instruments and create your own tracks
Shayz that would be sick
Damn, this is a badass idea.
Feels like everyone's now talking about this. I haven't played it yet but the music is already stuck in my head.
This does look pretty bad ass. I could only imagine if they have multi player, it would sound so sweet
God, it must be so gratifying as a developer to see reactions like this. You work your ass off on a project you have no idea whether it will even work or if anyone will even see it, let alone like it, only to have people rant and rave about how amazing it is.
This game is going to be a big hit, I'm sure of it.
I’m mostly excited for the TRACKLIST
