There are a LOT of links in the description of all the channels and stuff I mentioned. Also it's been a long time since I played DoW and I wasn't doing well at it. ADDITIONALLY: Discord no longer exists, games will now be given away if they're still being sold on digital storefronts, and the new $5 tier is submitting credit questions.
Your breaks well deserved man, you and Accursed Farms are the fuckin' best on youtube IMO. OH also you should take a look at Urban Chaos: Riot Response some day.
Thanks for the shout out, buddy. You're a sweet, sweet man and your content is light years ahead of mine. I'll be thinking of you in my darkest moments (all moments).
Yet some requested games on the list are not. I would really like to hear him talking about title that are more obscure (like first Arkane's game, not Dark Messiah but Arx Fatalis, for example) by other people (youtubers and else) or well known titles. Do I sound obnoxious or demanding? I know, it's a plague of comments section on YT and anywhere with comment section but whatever...
Thanks for the shout out, man. I heard my phone notifications going off like crazy and thought a family member had died. All the help you've given me has been totally undeserved. I can't wait for the UA-cam review tutorial video - your stuff is the absolute best and I frequently look to it for a bit of inspiration.
First things first the Star Citizen’s controversy vid was my favorite and secondly your channel and you especially are honest and good. And I’m assuming we all appreciate your effort so please Mandalore just do what you think is best,which is what you are already doing.
Joseph Camacho same about the sc video; wish he'd revisit SC but due to the horrible fan base of that game I don't blame him if he'd rather distance himself from it
For people who aren't sure, Joseph Anderson and Mandalore are good friends. Despite the impression Joseph's videos give, he likes to joke a lot. So Mandalore and Joseph like to screw around with each other a crap ton.
"The holiday season is a really busy time for me" Mandalore is Santa! I knew it! Anyway, really glad that you're prioritizing freedom over financial gain, nice to see some integrity on youtube. Have a nice break and a merry undenominational mid-december festivities :)
whatever the hell happens.. This channel is GOLD. Probably my favorite channel next to accursed farms. so much quality content... i love it. merry christmas, lord overworked and hang in there! :)
I seriously can't tell the beef between you and Joseph Anderson is a real thing or not. It reads like a joke, yet the concern in your voice sounds pretty genuine.
Bit Jockey Yeah, but Jossie isn't like that. I've had many conversations with him over discord and he's a really grounded and nice guy. Also the "my children are actors" thing is obviously a joke.
instead of patreon, just do an anonymous donation service. its optional and you would never know who supported you so you can't give exclusive content to those people. Heck you might not get any money, but some people might want to give money to you as a sign of appreciation.
My thoughts exactly. Ross Scott of Freeman's Mind fame has a paypal setup. No rewards, nothing for giving him money. He pulls between 1500 and 3000 a month. I give him 5 bucks every month just because he is one of my Heroes. Ross's channel is about the same size as Mandalore too. Ross does live in poland though, even though he makes just a little over min wage for America, he is upper middle class in poland with his 25k a year. So I'm not saying mandalore would be able to quit his job or anything, but let people show their appreciation of you. No strings attached.
I know he said this in an old video and you guys probably do want to donate to him but I remember him saying to just donate to a space station 13 server if y’all want to throw some cash around
@Addrinvan Ross took a lot of coaxing plus a realization that his future was incredibly bleak due to UA-cam to actually consider asking for donations. Bit of a different situation there. Even then his sentiment's always been "I'd rather not take any money for any of this". A lot of the time creators feel appreciation from views and comments, though.
If you start a patreon, I think people will donate because they want to help YOU out, not your channel. You seem like a great guy who makes great content. Your videos are always a fun break from boredom. I think your very humble to not take money from your fans but you should at least give us the option. Thanks a lot. Btw review PREY.
Exactly, it's like giving a performer a tip. You don't care what they use it for you're just showing appreciation monetarily. Out of all the UA-camrs out there, Mandalore is the only one I've thought seriously about giving to, I went look for his Patreon but alas he had none. I couldn't care less about rewards, him making videos the way he has is my reward.
Fear grips my heart as you mention the break in your last review. I sulk away as yet another channel leaves. But, Mandalore's voice calms and explains the fears into oblivion. A knight in shining armor stands before me, tears gracing my cheeks as he humbly jokes about patreon vampires. Those are no joke but I silence these thoughts as he rides off into the sunset, my heart now revived with hope. But in all seriousness, thanks for being such a great person Mandalore. I can't wait for your future videos and I hope you have a great end of the year. See You Space Cowboy.
Lapjeskitty Your right it was a good burn. In defense of arlo though I dont think he takes bribes. I just think he is the sort of fanboy who if nintendo shat in his mouth he would still taste choclate. (I still love his content anyways)
Thank you so so so much for the smaller channel suggestions. I'm always looking for new game channels to watch, especially smaller ones. I'll be checking out all of them. You make such wonderful content, in working on some art for you but I gotta a lot of projects so who knows when I'll finish. I hope you enjoy your break and do what you need to do to make the content you love. Thank you for everything!
Keep up the good work my man, breaks are actually good for creativity. Hiatuses are one of the major ways to stop writer's block I've heard. Thanks for all the fun I had watching your videos. A good suggestion for the patreon problem would be an anonymous donation, it lets you be free from annoying suggestions and helps you in personal luxury you deserve!
Mandalore, you are the precious gem I am glad was graced to the world. You are my favorite youtube creator and also a person I respect very much on multiple levels! I am no good with comments but I'll try to show some more support. Keep being an amazing person!
Hey Mandalore -- you said you won't have much to say about Deus Ex, but what about covering the GMDX mod for it? There isn't much about it on youtube, but it's regarded by much of the fanbase as the definitive way to play the game. EDIT: Come to think of it, the Deus Ex modding scene is worth covering in general. The Nameless Mod is an especially odd gem that I think a lot of people would be interested in hearing about (has an interesting history). There some other great mods out there too, like Project 2027, Nihilum, Zodiac, Redsun 2020, and uh... not Revision.
It makes a couple bad changes imo but it is an incredible mod. Especially now with the official release and I believe it's also open source. New Vision, kenties launcher, and even hdtp are also excellent mods
Thanks to Shammy I've watched, subscribed, and journeyed through the entire back catalogue of videos, and I've got to say I really enjoy this channel. There are a lot of games I probably won't end up playing, but it's great to get to experience them vicariously through your channel, experiences, and explanations! I only expect great things from here on out. Keep having fun with it!
Currently you, Ross Scott, and Sseth are my go to for insightful yet funny review videos, so I'd say you're doing a great job. Take as much of a break as you need and whenever you need it. Keep up the great work, Mandalore! On a side note, a few game suggestions I saw weren't on the list. Apologies in advance if this is a lot of suggestions at once. -Door Kickers: Pseudo-RTS (you can freely pause and plan out tactics) that incorporates using a squad of SWAT members to effectively use fields of fire to breach rooms and complete tasks like saving hostages. I think it got Coop a while ago and it's on steam for about 20 bucks. -Fractured Space: F2P spaceship brawl / moba. Has a decent system for F2P that doesn't ruin your ability to play what you wanna play (usually). -Faster Than Light: Rogue-like space combat with an end goal to make it through many sectors and fight a final boss. Might suffer from Deus Ex syndrome in that you can't find too much to say that others haven't already. -State of Decay: Ported from Xbox 360 to PC some time ago. Manage other survivors in a world ruled by zombies with interesting twists such as perma-death for survivors, progression of individual survivors, and management of food, ammunition, and onslaughts of hordes. -Far Cry 2: FPS set in Africa in which your character is hunting the Jackal, an infamous gun runner except you have malaria that you have to stave off. Game has some "choices" in terms of story but its real saving grace is that the combat is fun if not a bit monotonous after a good few hours (a lot of repeat quests and objectives sadly). -Brutal Legend: Jack Black plays a metal guitar hero who goes around slaying demons and laying women. Open world game with a bit of RTS elements and decent multiplayer (although idk if it's still alive). Very over the top in terms of character and story design. Interesting if only for a playthrough or two. There are a few other games in mind like Bastion, Transistor, Mordheim, and so on but they're either longer games that would take time or don't have too much you could say that others haven't.
Lord Mandalore you're one of my favorite channels out there! Your reviews go into detail, and the way you describe and talk about them keeps it interesting. If I had a recommendation to give, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning!
Check his actual video about his channels future and you will instantly notice his real intentions #useyourgnoggin this dude literally says his channel is not making enough money to be profitable so he will mainstream his content and change direction to get more money 😂😂😂🤷🏽♂️
My only question is that how you make youre sound so relaxing and the perfect ballance beatween dont care about what you say and actually care a lot about what you are about to say. I feel like you nurture, pet, and rock every sentence and when it is grown and ready to go out there you just release it from youre arms and just smile. in other words the start and the end of the sentences all have this starts from nothing stays on a level then goes back to nothing, every single time. It is just soo captivating.
Thanks so much for the update! Really appreciate your honesty, candor, and sheer lack of greed. A real refreshing change from things that seem to be becoming the norm.
Do Phantom Dust, it's a Xbox original game remastered and placed on Windows 10. It's very unique, however you need to put in a lot of time or pay about $21
I'm amazed at how down-to-earth you are. Your vids are always a joy to watch, even if they are criticizing a game I like, because I still appreciate it when someone honestly talk about something's flaws.
Wait, is Joseph Anderson joking? I love his videos, but if he's at all serious I have no interest in anything he makes in the future. EDIT: It looks like it was a joke delivered in the most dry tone.
That's the style of both of them. Comedy, but you wouldn't know it was comedy if you didn't know them, because they use the same delivery as all their other stuff. 100.34% sure he was joking
I'm laughing out loud at the fact that Joseph Anderson threatened you. Not too cool the fact that he knows where you live though, that's fucking weird.
A simple neurose I'm laughing out loud that people just hear something and instantly believe it. Do your research before getting to conclusions, how about that? They're friends, it was a *joke*.
11:08 This is the one video on your channel I haven't watched several times by now and this joke caught me completely off guard it was so unexpected and funny. Fair play to you Mandy.
You are one of my favorite reviewers, and mad respect for your view on patreon. I hope you continue to enjoy what you do and I'm so excited to see the content you put out after the break.
Hey Mandalore. I've only discovered your channel a couple months ago, and now it's my favorite. Your chill tone and the ability to go deep AND not be pretentious is something I can't get enough of. Also, glad to hear you will be doing weirder videos -- I was starting to be worried, that you're stuck in a rut of making review every two weeks. Don't get me wrong, the reviews are great, but I would love to see something like Star Citizen video, which wasn't a review at all. Thanks for your work!
In all honesty, you have become my favorite UA-camr by far. Your videos are informative, well structured, and just overall fun to watch, which justifies breaks between each video in my opinion. I deeply respect you for not opening a Patreon, and just letting the money roll, without knowing if it actually increased your video output. Keep up the great work man, and enjoy the days off (with your family I presume ^^) Merry Christmas! P.S. Oh yeah, and a game I'd personally like to see covered would have to be Killing Floor 2. In the last few weeks I have sunk way too much time into that game.
I can honestly say there are no videos I look forward to more than yours when you upload, and I end up trying every game you review. Thank you for the amazing content!
I don't really comment too often, but I thought I'd let you know you're my favorite UA-camr. I love your deadpan delivery, your style, and how you sometimes say "I'll come back to that later." and then you actually do. I constantly find myself looking through your videos, hoping I've missed one somehow(impossible). I can't wait for your new video. And have a nice break/Christmas!
You have to be one of my favorite UA-camrs, nevermind reviewers. I greatly appreciate the transparency, and wish you the best during this break. That being said, can't wait for the new content you have planned! I'll gladly wait a little bit to make sure you're putting out content you're happy with.
MandaloreGaming, I'm glad you do this for fun and for free. It's wholesome, old school youtube and I really enjoy watching your videos knowing you enjoy making them.
I don't like doing requests but there was this one game I'm having a surprising amount of fun with right now. It's called Uncrewed and it's an RTS game where you can build your own units besiege/ lego style. It's early access, buried under all those trash steam games, has questionable art style decisions and is in general quite rough. But I would put it on my "best-flawed games" list next to EYE, the gameplay just hits the right spot for me. Anyway, happy holidays!
Its fine man. Make them on your time at your pace. Doesn't matter if its late. We don't want you to drop dead from overwork. You're one of the better guys i know of on youtube. Cheers!
Congratulations on 100k my man. Started watching you when I accidentally saw your F.E.A.R review and I instantly loved your personality and voice. Keep making good content and don't worry about your upload schedule, your videos are very rewatchable.
YES! YES! YOU REALLY DO READ EVERYONE'S MESSAGES! I sent that Kingdom Under Fire series suggestion to you, i didnt expect you to actually show the game's title in the vid
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I love your passion for your videos and I really appreciate everything that you said during this video. Honestly incredible integrity and it's truly inspiring to hear how you feel about it all. I wish you the best of luck man.
You really deserve that sub more than possible. It is rare to see such gentle people which still only do content because it is their passion and not for 💰. You perfectly described the missing need for a patreon page - in your situation the only reason for patreon would be additional money which simply is not necessary. Keep up your passionate work and enjoy your break 🙋🏽♂️ Merry xmas 🌲🎊
I love your reviews, and cant wait for more. One review I would love to see is Homeworld. You always seem to have interesting insights on what happens around a game relating to the people involved and the fan base. With the changes that happened between the original its expansion and HW:2 and finaly gearbox getting their grubby paws on the IP I'm sure a review would be a really fun watch.
Nice update, very informative. Love you, man. For patreon, I'm a huge fan of the one tier system. Means that people are put under less pressure to give more, other than giving more because they want to.
Man I wish you nothing but success. Take as much time as you want with your break. You’ll always have an appreciative viewer here. Thanks for taking the time to explain your haitus.
Mandalore, I just want you to know that it really is amazing how well put together your videos are, especially considering that you're doing this for free. Keep up the good work mang.
Thank you for all the gifts this year, Mandalore. Christmas is always early with you around. Now, let's see how impossible it is to get a sentence seen between everything in that Discord of yours.
Thank you so much for your reviews this year, I really dig your variation of games that you review and just the way you review are so well structured out and clear but also fun. Keep 'em coming and I'll deff keep watching them!
I remember watching a couple of vids a while back and just passing through, but I've found you again and the fantastic production of these videos really struck me. I look forward to the comeback this year. Also play Dragon's Dogma
You know, I used to consider you one of my favorite youtubers mandalore, I really did. But after this... you’ve reached a new level of Awesome. I do not know a more honest, interesting, and respectable UA-camd out there. Keep up the amazing work and your real fans will always be there, myself included.
I played Darkwood because of your review and I can easily say it's my favorite game this year. I love all things horror, so I built a backbone to almost everything, but Darkwood still managed to terrify me and entertain me.
Hey Mandalore, i just want to thank you during this season of giving, you inspire me to make better videos, as well as play games i wouldn't have taken a second glance at. I found you from your Planetside 2 review because i was salty about the game, and was looking for something to convince me it was still worth playing. while I was not convinced to keep playing your video made me look at the game from a more balanced view(I play NC mostly so I tend to hate on the TR and VS) realizing that from other perspectives everyone's overpower. Anyway I hope this comment reaches you, and I hope you have a merry Christmas and happy holidays. Thanks for your videos. ~Logan
Keep up the good work man, it's your time and your content so just release stuff whenever you can and when you're happy with it, no point rushing stuff or using time you don't have to make stuff for us, that's not fair. Very respectable stuff about Patreon as well, good to be honest and not take money for no reason. To be fair, with your fan base if you opened a Patreon you could likely afford to work part time but it's your life man, do whatever you feel is best.
Wish you happy holidays man. Chill a bit and don´t stress yourself out. Your shedule is more than enough for us... You don´t need to do a video every two weeks it´s quality over quantity And at last i wanted to say thank you for your great work.
Keep it up. You are most legit reviewer in my sub box. What i mean legit: I feel that your content is semi timeless. Because many reviewer try to be on edge when they publish their content. Usually reviewers really dont have much say but still upload videos for the hot moment. Your Star Citizen Development & Controversy was eye opening. Feel like that many isnt talking Star Citizen problems. Your analysis are insightful and gives feeling that you really understand the game.
MandaloreGaming keep up the good work man! I just love the little random edits about Gachimuchi, or old movies and games, just gives me some nostalgia or a giggle. Thanks mate.
There are a LOT of links in the description of all the channels and stuff I mentioned. Also it's been a long time since I played DoW and I wasn't doing well at it.
ADDITIONALLY: Discord no longer exists, games will now be given away if they're still being sold on digital storefronts, and the new $5 tier is submitting credit questions.
hey do you think you would ever check out Armies of Exigo?
Hey take your time i prefer less videos but you keep the quality
Your breaks well deserved man, you and Accursed Farms are the fuckin' best on youtube IMO. OH also you should take a look at Urban Chaos: Riot Response some day.
You are too humble mandalore. I will wait for that video man
Out of the topic,how can you have 74 likes on 50 view videos? Something is f.up on yt...
Oh man, I'm internet famous now. I can finally stop buying gas station burritos and move onto store bought. Feels good.
If my server on SS13 gets a massive influx of greytide, I'm blaming your friendship with Mandalore and I will riot.
GLORY TO CARGONIA!
Hail Cargonia
I don't know about Store bought just yet, shouldn't you get a second job first?
"massive influx". All 12 fans of mine.
Thanks man! My channel's gotten a big boost from your shoutout. I'll probably cover the FEAR series next.
time to fight the system...
Please rewiew Timeshift.
and Will Rock cause I WANNA ROCK! and Lord Mandalore would get some ROCK
Hack the planet and review timeshift
#ItsTimeForTimeshift
Klemes67 is the game worth playing? I got it for a couple dollars and I don't know how high on my list it should be.
Reported for hatespeech
Thanks for the shout out, buddy. You're a sweet, sweet man and your content is light years ahead of mine. I'll be thinking of you in my darkest moments (all moments).
Dead Space, E.Y.E., F.EA.R. and now Dawn of War...You have a fine taste in video games, Lord Mandalore
If I knew what EYE was and if it had a sequel I would say "and all games that dropped off in quality with sequels"
But I don't, so... damn
Yet some requested games on the list are not.
I would really like to hear him talking about title that are more obscure (like first Arkane's game, not Dark Messiah but Arx Fatalis, for example) by other people (youtubers and else) or well known titles.
Do I sound obnoxious or demanding? I know, it's a plague of comments section on YT and anywhere with comment section but whatever...
God damn, Arx Fatalis... Draw spells with your mouse they said...
I do not miss the old ball mice.
You noticed only now?
Yeah, casting spell with mouse cursor was awesome but it was pain in the ass without Arx Libertatis patch.
Thanks for the shout out, man. I heard my phone notifications going off like crazy and thought a family member had died. All the help you've given me has been totally undeserved. I can't wait for the UA-cam review tutorial video - your stuff is the absolute best and I frequently look to it for a bit of inspiration.
Your videos rule
First things first the Star Citizen’s controversy vid was my favorite and secondly your channel and you especially are honest and good. And I’m assuming we all appreciate your effort so please Mandalore just do what you think is best,which is what you are already doing.
Joseph Camacho same about the sc video; wish he'd revisit SC but due to the horrible fan base of that game I don't blame him if he'd rather distance himself from it
For people who aren't sure, Joseph Anderson and Mandalore are good friends. Despite the impression Joseph's videos give, he likes to joke a lot. So Mandalore and Joseph like to screw around with each other a crap ton.
aupenn huh... Man I really thought Joseph was a psycho for a second lol
...Who's Joseph? .-.
Ace Wolfgang He's the guy threatening Mandalore in the dark souls section of the video. He makes extensive game review videos
Brendan Merkel Agh, thank you
That section was killing me. The fucking Google Earth picture - dead.
"The holiday season is a really busy time for me" Mandalore is Santa! I knew it! Anyway, really glad that you're prioritizing freedom over financial gain, nice to see some integrity on youtube. Have a nice break and a merry undenominational mid-december festivities :)
whatever the hell happens.. This channel is GOLD. Probably my favorite channel next to accursed farms. so much quality content... i love it.
merry christmas, lord overworked and hang in there! :)
I seriously can't tell the beef between you and Joseph Anderson is a real thing or not.
It reads like a joke, yet the concern in your voice sounds pretty genuine.
Bit Jockey Joe is just fucking with mandalore, but he's afraid of that spooky Canadian beast
Joseph and Mandalore screw with each other. They are good friends, no worries. Source: I moderate for Joseph on Twitch.
Bit Jockey Yeah, it's a joke.
Here's the thing; UA-cam is a breeding pool for insane people (especially in the gaming community), so that's why I wasn't too sure.
Bit Jockey Yeah, but Jossie isn't like that. I've had many conversations with him over discord and he's a really grounded and nice guy. Also the "my children are actors" thing is obviously a joke.
instead of patreon, just do an anonymous donation service. its optional and you would never know who supported you so you can't give exclusive content to those people. Heck you might not get any money, but some people might want to give money to you as a sign of appreciation.

I think your very humble to not take money from your fans but you should at least give us the option. Thanks a lot.
Btw review PREY.
Exactly, it's like giving a performer a tip. You don't care what they use it for you're just showing appreciation monetarily. Out of all the UA-camrs out there, Mandalore is the only one I've thought seriously about giving to, I went look for his Patreon but alas he had none.

"It's time to play the mind games."
Yes! Prey!
Scitronaunt
I was talking about the new one but that also would be kinda cool
both!
I'm glad those Tau heathens learned the true meaning of Christmas
Patreon idea: Suggest a song to use in the video. Though it'd probably be all shit.
Mandalore does a fine job of serving the Emperor, through both his reviews and his purging of xenos and the unclean.
Better to teach them ALL Imperial Holyday stuff until Sanguinala
God damn it Joseph
TheDoctorThrax Joestar
+John Muckian
He's a powerful and a very dangerous man.
The good Dawn of war
Both of them are good
Aaaaaah right there was a third one
God damn you've such integrity. I think it's what makes your videos so great. Your perspective is always so respectable.
Fear grips my heart as you mention the break in your last review. I sulk away as yet another channel leaves. But, Mandalore's voice calms and explains the fears into oblivion. A knight in shining armor stands before me, tears gracing my cheeks as he humbly jokes about patreon vampires. Those are no joke but I silence these thoughts as he rides off into the sunset, my heart now revived with hope.
But in all seriousness, thanks for being such a great person Mandalore. I can't wait for your future videos and I hope you have a great end of the year. See You Space Cowboy.
Aw damn that burn on Arlo though. I'm always conflicted when people I enjoy call out other people I enjoy.
Lapjeskitty Your right it was a good burn. In defense of arlo though I dont think he takes bribes. I just think he is the sort of fanboy who if nintendo shat in his mouth he would still taste choclate.
(I still love his content anyways)
Thank you so so so much for the smaller channel suggestions. I'm always looking for new game channels to watch, especially smaller ones. I'll be checking out all of them. You make such wonderful content, in working on some art for you but I gotta a lot of projects so who knows when I'll finish. I hope you enjoy your break and do what you need to do to make the content you love. Thank you for everything!
Liar.
Give me back my dog and stop calling just to make me listen to barking
My god, they are both here, what does this mean
I love you, Joseph.
STOP BULLI MANDY JOSEPH *B A D M A N*
Give me back my friend Shammy and you can see your dog again. You've turned him against me you fucking snake.
Keep up the good work my man, breaks are actually good for creativity. Hiatuses are one of the major ways to stop writer's block I've heard. Thanks for all the fun I had watching your videos. A good suggestion for the patreon problem would be an anonymous donation, it lets you be free from annoying suggestions and helps you in personal luxury you deserve!
BUENAS NOCHES MANDY
N-nani!?!
Buenas noches, Puro Huesos.
IMBECIL
Mandalore you really are a gem among youtubers. not only your contenst also you as a person cheer me up.
ALL HAIL MANDALORE THE WHOLESOME
fucking LOVE your honesty man, and your videos. the genuine nature of your content is incredibly refreshing.
Thank you for being you fam.
Call your doctor if you have an erection lasting longer than two♂months♂or♂so
Mandalore, you are the precious gem I am glad was graced to the world. You are my favorite youtube creator and also a person I respect very much on multiple levels! I am no good with comments but I'll try to show some more support. Keep being an amazing person!

Thanks to Shammy I've watched, subscribed, and journeyed through the entire back catalogue of videos, and I've got to say I really enjoy this channel. There are a lot of games I probably won't end up playing, but it's great to get to experience them vicariously through your channel, experiences, and explanations! I only expect great things from here on out. Keep having fun with it!
After seeing the joseph Anderson bit I have a new found appreciation for him...”Don’t fuck with the dragon”
Haha I thought it was pretty sad.
Currently you, Ross Scott, and Sseth are my go to for insightful yet funny review videos, so I'd say you're doing a great job. Take as much of a break as you need and whenever you need it. Keep up the great work, Mandalore!
On a side note, a few game suggestions I saw weren't on the list. Apologies in advance if this is a lot of suggestions at once.
-Door Kickers: Pseudo-RTS (you can freely pause and plan out tactics) that incorporates using a squad of SWAT members to effectively use fields of fire to breach rooms and complete tasks like saving hostages. I think it got Coop a while ago and it's on steam for about 20 bucks.
-Fractured Space: F2P spaceship brawl / moba. Has a decent system for F2P that doesn't ruin your ability to play what you wanna play (usually).
-Faster Than Light: Rogue-like space combat with an end goal to make it through many sectors and fight a final boss. Might suffer from Deus Ex syndrome in that you can't find too much to say that others haven't already.
-State of Decay: Ported from Xbox 360 to PC some time ago. Manage other survivors in a world ruled by zombies with interesting twists such as perma-death for survivors, progression of individual survivors, and management of food, ammunition, and onslaughts of hordes.
-Far Cry 2: FPS set in Africa in which your character is hunting the Jackal, an infamous gun runner except you have malaria that you have to stave off. Game has some "choices" in terms of story but its real saving grace is that the combat is fun if not a bit monotonous after a good few hours (a lot of repeat quests and objectives sadly).
-Brutal Legend: Jack Black plays a metal guitar hero who goes around slaying demons and laying women. Open world game with a bit of RTS elements and decent multiplayer (although idk if it's still alive). Very over the top in terms of character and story design. Interesting if only for a playthrough or two.
There are a few other games in mind like Bastion, Transistor, Mordheim, and so on but they're either longer games that would take time or don't have too much you could say that others haven't.
Please dont become a demolition D
Antônio DGcaldeira i miss daddy d+
My heart
He'd have to start as a demo
You are the best, Mandalore. One of my absolute favorite creators. Thank you for your honesty and enthusiasm.
Please review Timeshift.
Lord Mandalore you're one of my favorite channels out there! Your reviews go into detail, and the way you describe and talk about them keeps it interesting. If I had a recommendation to give, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning!
14:20 lol the jab at arlo
he's wrong too, he doesnt' take bribes from nintendo, he did sell his hairy blue ass out to ubisoft though
Check his actual video about his channels future and you will instantly notice his real intentions #useyourgnoggin this dude literally says his channel is not making enough money to be profitable so he will mainstream his content and change direction to get more money 😂😂😂🤷🏽♂️
I noticed that. Love Arlo!
My only question is that how you make youre sound so relaxing and the perfect ballance beatween dont care about what you say and actually care a lot about what you are about to say. I feel like you nurture, pet, and rock every sentence and when it is grown and ready to go out there you just release it from youre arms and just smile.
in other words the start and the end of the sentences all have this starts from nothing stays on a level then goes back to nothing, every single time. It is just soo captivating.
It's good you have a long rest... We have more time to catch up with subtitles. (and i have more time for upcoming Overlord S2 and volume 13)
Thanks so much for the update! Really appreciate your honesty, candor, and sheer lack of greed. A real refreshing change from things that seem to be becoming the norm.
Do Phantom Dust, it's a Xbox original game remastered and placed on Windows 10. It's very unique, however you need to put in a lot of time or pay about $21
You r a gem! Thanks for any and all uploads. Your love for your craft shows!
What about Mount & Blade review?
Bannerlord NEVAH!?
I'm amazed at how down-to-earth you are. Your vids are always a joy to watch, even if they are criticizing a game I like, because I still appreciate it when someone honestly talk about something's flaws.
Wait, is Joseph Anderson joking? I love his videos, but if he's at all serious I have no interest in anything he makes in the future.
EDIT: It looks like it was a joke delivered in the most dry tone.
Joseph and Mandalore are good friends. They just like to screw with each other by insulting each other. Source: I am a Twitch Mod for Joseph.
That's the style of both of them. Comedy, but you wouldn't know it was comedy if you didn't know them, because they use the same delivery as all their other stuff. 100.34% sure he was joking
I can't believe all the people asking this. Did you even read the words on the screen?
thats '.34' are terrible
I am really happy about the stuff you said about being on Patreon, thanks for being so goddamn cool Mandalore
Review Timeshift
Dude, what you are doing is quality work - your videos are really entertaining . No shame in getting paid, no strings attached
I'm laughing out loud at the fact that Joseph Anderson threatened you. Not too cool the fact that he knows where you live though, that's fucking weird.
It's a joke my dude.
A simple neurose I'm laughing out loud that people just hear something and instantly believe it. Do your research before getting to conclusions, how about that? They're friends, it was a *joke*.
Cool. Still laughing.
11:08 This is the one video on your channel I haven't watched several times by now and this joke caught me completely off guard it was so unexpected and funny. Fair play to you Mandy.
You are one of my favorite reviewers, and mad respect for your view on patreon. I hope you continue to enjoy what you do and I'm so excited to see the content you put out after the break.
Hey Mandalore.
I've only discovered your channel a couple months ago, and now it's my favorite. Your chill tone and the ability to go deep AND not be pretentious is something I can't get enough of.
Also, glad to hear you will be doing weirder videos -- I was starting to be worried, that you're stuck in a rut of making review every two weeks. Don't get me wrong, the reviews are great, but I would love to see something like Star Citizen video, which wasn't a review at all.
Thanks for your work!
In all honesty, you have become my favorite UA-camr by far.
Your videos are informative, well structured, and just overall fun to watch, which justifies breaks between each video in my opinion.
I deeply respect you for not opening a Patreon, and just letting the money roll, without knowing if it actually increased your video output.
Keep up the great work man, and enjoy the days off (with your family I presume ^^)
Merry Christmas!
P.S. Oh yeah, and a game I'd personally like to see covered would have to be Killing Floor 2. In the last few weeks I have sunk way too much time into that game.
Once again, thanks for the tagging advice. It's really helping a lot.
Literally the best UA-camr i follow. The honesty is awesome, Merry Christmas Mandalore.
I can honestly say there are no videos I look forward to more than yours when you upload, and I end up trying every game you review. Thank you for the amazing content!
Based Mandy, been great watching your content since April and I hope you can make the best of the break
Found out about a lot of really cool-looking reviewers through this video. Thank YOU for everything.
You do you man. Best of luck whatever you end up doing. Enjoyed your reviews and early content in hindsight immensely
I don't really comment too often, but I thought I'd let you know you're my favorite UA-camr. I love your deadpan delivery, your style, and how you sometimes say "I'll come back to that later." and then you actually do. I constantly find myself looking through your videos, hoping I've missed one somehow(impossible). I can't wait for your new video. And have a nice break/Christmas!
You have to be one of my favorite UA-camrs, nevermind reviewers. I greatly appreciate the transparency, and wish you the best during this break. That being said, can't wait for the new content you have planned! I'll gladly wait a little bit to make sure you're putting out content you're happy with.
Dude don't worry so much, we love your reviews very much, and your edits, keep up the awesome work.
MandaloreGaming, I'm glad you do this for fun and for free. It's wholesome, old school youtube and I really enjoy watching your videos knowing you enjoy making them.
I don't like doing requests but there was this one game I'm having a surprising amount of fun with right now. It's called Uncrewed and it's an RTS game where you can build your own units besiege/ lego style. It's early access, buried under all those trash steam games, has questionable art style decisions and is in general quite rough. But I would put it on my "best-flawed games" list next to EYE, the gameplay just hits the right spot for me.
Anyway, happy holidays!
You didnt answer my question. Why are you my favorite discovery of 2017? Honestly your channel is amazing, keep it up man and enjoy your break!
Literally the only channel i'd watch a channel update/FAQ on. Good stuff, Mandalore.
Its fine man. Make them on your time at your pace. Doesn't matter if its late. We don't want you to drop dead from overwork. You're one of the better guys i know of on youtube. Cheers!
Congratulations on 100k my man. Started watching you when I accidentally saw your F.E.A.R review and I instantly loved your personality and voice. Keep making good content and don't worry about your upload schedule, your videos are very rewatchable.
YES! YES! YOU REALLY DO READ EVERYONE'S MESSAGES! I sent that Kingdom Under Fire series suggestion to you, i didnt expect you to actually show the game's title in the vid
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I love your passion for your videos and I really appreciate everything that you said during this video. Honestly incredible integrity and it's truly inspiring to hear how you feel about it all. I wish you the best of luck man.
Take your time Lord Mandalore, you've far exceeded the amount of videos i was expecting from you this year!
You really deserve that sub more than possible. It is rare to see such gentle people which still only do content because it is their passion and not for 💰. You perfectly described the missing need for a patreon page - in your situation the only reason for patreon would be additional money which simply is not necessary. Keep up your passionate work and enjoy your break 🙋🏽♂️ Merry xmas 🌲🎊
I love your reviews, and cant wait for more. One review I would love to see is Homeworld. You always seem to have interesting insights on what happens around a game relating to the people involved and the fan base. With the changes that happened between the original its expansion and HW:2 and finaly gearbox getting their grubby paws on the IP I'm sure a review would be a really fun watch.
Nice update, very informative. Love you, man.
For patreon, I'm a huge fan of the one tier system. Means that people are put under less pressure to give more, other than giving more because they want to.
Your sootthing tones have kept me sane. Thank you.
Man I wish you nothing but success. Take as much time as you want with your break. You’ll always have an appreciative viewer here. Thanks for taking the time to explain your haitus.
Whatever gets mandalore to create the same fantastic videos is good enough for me. Enjoy you break and hope you enjoy the games you review.
Mandalore is hands down my favorite UA-camr now. What a classy gent of a man.
Mandalore, I just want you to know that it really is amazing how well put together your videos are, especially considering that you're doing this for free. Keep up the good work mang.
Thank you for all the gifts this year, Mandalore. Christmas is always early with you around.
Now, let's see how impossible it is to get a sentence seen between everything in that Discord of yours.
Thank you so much for your reviews this year, I really dig your variation of games that you review and just the way you review are so well structured out and clear but also fun. Keep 'em coming and I'll deff keep watching them!
I remember watching a couple of vids a while back and just passing through, but I've found you again and the fantastic production of these videos really struck me. I look forward to the comeback this year.
Also play Dragon's Dogma
You know, I used to consider you one of my favorite youtubers mandalore, I really did. But after this... you’ve reached a new level of Awesome. I do not know a more honest, interesting, and respectable UA-camd out there. Keep up the amazing work and your real fans will always be there, myself included.
I played Darkwood because of your review and I can easily say it's my favorite game this year. I love all things horror, so I built a backbone to almost everything, but Darkwood still managed to terrify me and entertain me.
Hey Mandalore, i just want to thank you during this season of giving, you inspire me to make better videos, as well as play games i wouldn't have taken a second glance at.
I found you from your Planetside 2 review because i was salty about the game, and was looking for something to convince me it was still worth playing.
while I was not convinced to keep playing your video made me look at the game from a more balanced view(I play NC mostly so I tend to hate on the TR and VS)
realizing that from other perspectives everyone's overpower.
Anyway I hope this comment reaches you, and I hope you have a merry Christmas and happy holidays.
Thanks for your videos. ~Logan
Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy having you around and that I appreciate everything you do.
Keep up the good work man, it's your time and your content so just release stuff whenever you can and when you're happy with it, no point rushing stuff or using time you don't have to make stuff for us, that's not fair. Very respectable stuff about Patreon as well, good to be honest and not take money for no reason. To be fair, with your fan base if you opened a Patreon you could likely afford to work part time but it's your life man, do whatever you feel is best.
Thanks for being the least bit transparent with your viewers, especially with the whole patreon deal. All in all keep on truckin'.
Wish you happy holidays man.
Chill a bit and don´t stress yourself out.
Your shedule is more than enough for us... You don´t need to do a video every two weeks it´s quality over quantity
And at last i wanted to say thank you for your great work.
I think mandalore is the most wholesome youtuber, can't wait for whatever comes. I'll be patient for quality.
Keep doing what you're comfortable with Mandalore! Really enjoy your vids.
Mandelor, your reviews are top notch, please don't stop. You got a real talent for this stuff, so keep it up. Fly safe :)
Thanks @Mandaloregaming your review are just chill, hope you have a nice Christmas and happy new year
Dude you are one of a kind, thanks for being like this, your great :)
Merry Christmas Lord Mandalore. You are my favorite youtuber!
Keep it up. You are most legit reviewer in my sub box. What i mean legit: I feel that your content is semi timeless. Because many reviewer try to be on edge when they publish their content. Usually reviewers really dont have much say but still upload videos for the hot moment. Your Star Citizen Development & Controversy was eye opening. Feel like that many isnt talking Star Citizen problems. Your analysis are insightful and gives feeling that you really understand the game.
I found your channel earlier this year and I'm lovin' it. My favourite video is the Endless legend review.
MandaloreGaming keep up the good work man! I just love the little random edits about Gachimuchi, or old movies and games, just gives me some nostalgia or a giggle. Thanks mate.
