I've said this before and I'll say it again, in some of these it's clearly the game's fault that he failed the QTEs. If you go to the steam page for the game you can find people in the reviews complaining about the QTE's when you play with a mouse. The game is so badly made that nobody realized the sensitivity is absurdly low in some QTEs so they're practically impossible to pull off.
On top of that, I think it actually might be on purpose. It really feels this time around that the game REALLY wants certain parts of the story to play out a certain way, and only _barely_ gives the player any ability to change those outcomes in particular, and it seems to give that tiny bit almost begrudgingly. Like "Ok, FINE, I'll give the players a chance, I GUESS," and it only gives them a sliver of a chance so that they *technically* have some control.

That Spider-Man clip will never not crack me up. Edit: Jesus Christ Jeremy is useless at these games lmfao. Although I do have to wonder if the game developers make some of the QTE’s close to impossible on purpose or not.
@@TheMasterUnity it’s been too long but i feel like there were other, less huge things that are like that junk with the flare gun. but saving matt is by far the most obtuse.
@@PointsofData I mean... to be fair, the other option is literally "Jump to Safety" and the majority of the non-determinant dialogue in the scene is Matt going "Hey, this is really dangerous and this tower is about to fall!"
I've read recently made comments that go into detail on this game and looked some stuff up for good measure. Those words you see pop up sometimes when demons kill a character are Locked Traits. They start off Unlocked and not taking affect (afaik), but If you mess up vital QTEs they become Locked, reducing the time you have to complete QTEs AND making your cursor slower. The more characters die, the easier it is for more characters to die to a bullshit degree. Jerma did legitimately mess up the QTEs earlier, but closer to the end I don't blame him for messing up. You can even hear him taking wide sweeps with the mouse with one of the later deaths and he STILL couldn't make it to where he needed to be. It's not that the game is buggy (at least not this much), it's just there's some stupid design choices at play.
@@Manglet762 you don't get locked traits from screwing up qte's, you get them by picking dialogues that make you look like an asshole (if you have too many locked traits by the end of the game, your character gets instakilled, BUT there is a chance for you to "break" your locked traits, saving them)
@@Manglet762everything you said is correct, but I do still think the game is shoddily made. Controllers don’t experience the same absolute BS that keyboard and mouse do, at least not when this video was made. Maybe it has been fixed since, but there was a time where the difficulty was super unevenly applied depending on what you were using to play
@@Manglet762Just to point out, it's the dialogue choices that lead to the locked traits, not failing QTEs. You generally have to pick the needlessly aggressive / condescending options in order to gain them. In addition, each character has to choose to confront their demon alone, or else they'll be killed at the end. There was an update in the end of 2022 which changed the way QTEs work and adds difficulty options. However I played KB+M both pre and post update and neither playthrough did any of my characters die to a QTE (although Angela and John died to choices in my blind run). Even before the update, you can adjust mouse sensitivity in the settings. You also could replace some of the mouse QTEs with A,S,D,W instead (although the crosshair ones would still be done with the mouse). This is what I did, and it was much more of a fair playthrough. Post update, it works like it does in House of Ashes. Left and right mouse button QTEs (which are a lot easier) and the aiming works like House of Ashes too. Even when choosing lethal difficulty, all my characters survived (curators cut this time).
I don't think QTE are necessarily bad, Detroit is all QTEs and it's not as frustrating as this game seem to be. The problem with QTEs is difficulty, you can't make "hard" QTEs it just feels frustrating and cheap so that's why choices should matter more than individual QTEs in these games.
The problem with QTEs isn't about difficulty, it's that they're often used as a replacement for gameplay. One could certainly argue they have their place in games as a way to add variety, or give the player a break, like in the older God of War games, but they should never be the only thing in your game. QTEs serve as a way to give the player a sense of control over what is otherwise an entirely scripted cinematic moment. If your game is nothing but QTEs, then your game is nothing but cutscenes, i.e., a movie.
Welcome to the Comments. See such posts as: "Jerma must be good at baseball since he's so good at throwing." "I'd slow down on eating food since Jerma chokes so much" "Jeremy is a big Undertale fan, this genocide run does look a bit odd"
I fucking love when these two play these games because its always the same "wtf I did that qte!!!" And then etalyx goes "Just let me SAVE you jerma!!!"
Jerma "i clickeded it." Etalyx "LET ME SAVE YOU!" Jerma proceeds to fail every choice and option. Not even a second player can save this insane man from himself.
Jerma was pretending all along, I can feel it, he should stop pretending, I mean, c'mon, how can he lose EVERY single one? Unless he's some sort of sick streamer that takes joy on his friends and viewers getting furious, but that's impossible, right? Right?!
Ever since the bit Jerma did in his Army of Two video with the fake soundboard Etalyx, I'm so paranoid for at least the first 5 minutes of every stream they do together that it's just Jerma operating his soundboard.
@@abdullahalharbi6217 Somehow I get the feeling that choices actually matter in Persona 5.... Unlike these interactive movies. It's a shame because Until Dawn got it right, and now look at what we got.
@The Jerma985 We would make fun of him for everything. Plays on mouse and keyboard, dumb dumb can't do qte. Plays on controller, omg pc mouse and keyboard are sooo much better. Plays with the wii controller, couldn't do qte and walk because he has weak arms. I would have liked if jerma could have done the qte and not kill every character that he had his hands on.
I can't imagine how many tries Jerma must've taken for Resident Evil 5 that were cut out from the original video when he fails every single important QTE in this game already.
So what I'm gathering from the plot of this game is... a group of people show up in silent hill, they walk into a flashback and monster infested buidling, then they leave the building, and then they walk into a flashback and monster infested building, then they leave the building, and then they walk into.......

To Jerma's credit, the M+KB controls for this game are atrocious to the point that you will fail most QTEs because the sensitivity is way too low.

It's more like "Movies make a lot of money. Movies appeal to the mainstream, the largest audience. Let's make a movie and disguise it as a game."
