Darkside driven by Dollface in this game just hits different, man - say what you will about all the character stories in this game being paper-thin revenge stories, but TM:B Dollface hands down has my favorite character arc/character growth in all the series. The way she goes from blaming herself to going "Wait a minute, I was victimized and don't deserve this" is such a beautiful yet dark development.
Also her complaining about the mask being uncomfortable and tight at first and then coming to accept it and even like it when she's given the chance to finally take it off
@@dessadooI think you have a great way of just speaking your mind that doesn’t seem tiring or boring! I know in a previous video you said you thought your commentary was too bland to do these types of videos, but they’ve become part of my ritual when having dinner. Thanks for the content Drew!
To have Dollface's motivation to punish the wicked given to Raven while dollface herself becomes another psycho despite raven getting revenge on her friend's killers and possibly going after her parents next is disgraceful. Dollface deserved to be the hero
Definitely! Although, I would be prepared for the game to feel overwhelming at first. It’s EXTREMELY hectic when you first start. Just takes time to get used to!
25:19: I disagree. Having to stand and fight is completely fine if you can do enough dmg to win fights quickly. For example, Manslaughter is big and slow, but his insane dmg output makes him one of the best in the game. IIRC, all of the heavy vehicles have high dmg specials so this applies to all of them.
Darkside was always my favorite in Black purely off of looks. Though thinking about it, a Semi probably wouldn't be the best in this situation. 11:39 TBH I always thought it was a Demo Derby race, but looking at the others being all sprint cars. Yeah what the hell is going on there?
As cool as I think Darkside is in this game, I'd go so far to say she's probably the worst pick in Black, and I think it boils down to having a ramming special in a game where ramming damage doesn't seem to actually matter. Look at Darkside in 2012, where it's practically the same vehicle with the same stats, but in a game where ramming someone as a larger vehicle actually deals good damage, and Darkside just so happens to be one of the best vehicles in that game. Hell, in TM1995, Darkside's actual special is a piddly little fuckin' laser beam that deals less damage than harsh language and I've never seen anyone actually try to use it, but Darkside is so big in comparison to everyone else that even *touching* them is gonna chunk half your health, if not kill you outright. And while Darkside didn't make it into TM2, I'd imagine if it did it'd be a force to be reckoned with (kinda like Axel).

Couldn't agree more! Such a great character!
Yeah! My favorite character in the entire series. Her looks, story and vehicle are all great, imo.
17:25 Thank you Drew, I appreciate it ♡
Also just blowing through the game with Darkside, Nice job!
You're the best Doll Mask! Thanks for checking out the video. Sorry I couldn't do any T-Slides 😭
@@dessadoo Not a problem, it takes a lot of getting used to and if you don't spend a lot of time practicing it is very difficult!
i love these videos. you just speaking while playing the game "live." would love to see more of these
Thank you! I’m happy you enjoy these videos. They are a blast to make!

Thank you for saying that! It really means a lot.

Yay my fav tm black character😊
We did get a twisted metal trucking simulator, it was called hard truck apocalypse
I would love to get a remaster of the game and character stories
You think its worth it to spend the 10 bucks to get TM black on the ps5?
10 definitely
Definitely! Although, I would be prepared for the game to feel overwhelming at first. It’s EXTREMELY hectic when you first start. Just takes time to get used to!
@@dessadooCody's favorite character 😊
Sure, just be aware if you're outside of the US you will get the eurocucked version without cutscenes
one of the very best ps2 games, the best twisted metal game, the best vehicular combat game… yeah it’s worth it (assuming you can’t just emulate)

Darkside is so cool, but her special feels a so underwhelming
Hey Drew! Hope things are well for you.
Like for the Like god. Comment for the Comment throne.
