1:23:55 Strictly speaking, all these things that feel like Persona 5 references are more likely references to one of P5's big inspirations, Arsene Lupin-the famous fictional French thief, THE Phantom Thief. For some reason he's super popular in Japan. (Yes, Lupin III is his unofficial grandson, that's why he's Lupin III.)
which inspired in turn the archetype in japan was the character Fiend With Twenty Faces, by author Edogawa Ranpo, opposite of the detective Kogoro Akechi (sound familiar?). The whole thing with the mask and dashing outfit, the calling card, all those tropes. you can see the sam with masque demask in ace attorney, in a lot of media!
The problem I see with this game is that Peach’s voice is constantly changing between the Mario 64 direction and modern direction. One minute, she’s high pitched and bubbly, then the next she’s more monotone and subdued.
@@KirbyKips Her voice...is constantly changing in general depending on the role. But when not in an outfit...she's just just 'calm' or 'slightly excited'...she doesn't drastically switch from say, Detective Peach to (Mario Wonder) Peach. It's not nearly that big a change.
If you liked this aesthetic Jacob, then you should try out Puppeteer! It’s like a play with curtains and stage turns and everything but the main villains are based on the Chinese zodiac and you have to collect heads to do special things. Also you have a pair of scissors as a weapon! Fun game! Highly recommend
The cat is a Projector though, not Camera. The overarching theme of the bosses are different uses of lighting in theater. By no means professional terms, but they seem to represent Decorative, Nessisity, Props, and Highlights in that order.
I'm so happy that Nintendo is back to being fun and creative with their IPs again. New stories, new characters, and new settings. Reminds me of the gamecube era.
the game is a lot of fun, and usually looks great. but i dont understand why the LOADING SCREENS, of all things, turn the game into powerpoint slides. loading screens you can keep SO minimal and get away with it. some games just have a little icon. here its like, these elaborate curtains that are consistently 2 frames per second.
I hope this doesn't sound mean but this looks like the perfect game to let someone that knows nothing about games into games, the control scheme is very simple, controls are very forgiving and it's very easy to understand what you have to do! (Plus some very nice animations and good feedback)
Yeah its a great time until you reach a cutscene and it just randomly chugs. Feels like a PS1 game, having issues with prerendered cutscenes instead of preloading them.
Barbie Wonderland is my new nickname for this game 😂. It doesn’t help that I watch Lucahjin’s play through of the Barbie horse riding game for the Wii, and one of the lines in the first episode is “Sparkles mean you can do things!”
@@jaxsonlambert9750that's fine, Jacob was presenting his opinion like the definitive one, but he completely ignored color theory for what makes good combinations, I don't think someone like that should be ranking fashion
Honestly the villain is kinda ghibli-esque like the witch from spirited away and the witch from Mary and the Witch’s flower. Especially with the music during the scene where she starts pointing at peach in the face with her larger than life bejeweled hand.
12:35 Peach’s voice sounds so off in this game, especially in this cutscene. Sometimes, she sounds just like Peach while other times, like this cutscene, she sounds completely different and almost kind of monotone? I thought Peach just got a new voice actress but, no, she’s still voiced by the same woman. I wonder if I’m in the minority here.
I don't understand how they went so hard on the different outfits and yet the dresses are just phoned in. Like, why do the key items look better than the cosmetic purchases???
2:06:23 "Oh, I wasn't looking at 'em, I'm just gonna... they're not important." 2:06:38 "Missed one already! How??" (More or less a sums up this entire playthrough.) Anyway, glad to see someone else who simply feels happy playing this game, regardless of difficulty.
When she gets on the horse, my reaction in my head, “Hi Ho Silver!” I also find it adorable embraces the roles like a true actress. 😊 especially with changing her voice.
You think it looks good because it follows color theory for a good combination, Alpharad completely ignored color theory to hate on random dresses that look fine
I'll be honest, I agree with Alpharad. It looks really ugly to me and I see why he hates it. Granted, I don't know color theory all that much, but those two shades of color don't look very good together. A darker purple might've worked, or a different shade entirely. The ones they picked bother me so much. Some of the other dresses he Dislikes though, I can understand it, but I liked a lot of them like the pinstripe and cake one. Even the Mighty one, as bedsheety as it was.
I might be wrong, but i believe one of the reasons Peach's voice actress made her voice sound so different is because of the movie, like she was trying to make it sound simmilar to that. Yk, if you compare this game's the old poster with the new one you can see her face looks much more like movie Peach too. Not sure why, but it makes sense to me ig.
Her voice is so strange to me !!! I feel like it’s so much lower and calmer than I’m used to? Maybe it’s the newer voice direction or something? But I love when her voice is really over the top and almost snow-white-ish!!
With the cat boss after I realized it’s gotta have the bomb in the middle, you can use the ribbon to hit the paws to knock them away. Definitely a weird boss but I do like it much more over the disco bird
I think I get what Jacob means about the voice after the Detective level. This voice is more of a Pauline or Rosalina voice. Peach’s voice is traditionally much higher pitched.
Peach holding her dress as she walks/runs is such a cute attention to detail.
3:08:30 "She doesn't say that!" Jacob, she's playing a cowgirl. She's in-character.
28:16 more proof that Jacob cant read a text box to save his life
as if any was needed lmao.
1:49:21 this too
Jacob has confirmed multiple times that he just mashes through text boxes and controls…

The Lupinlike of Mario
it was honestly kind of annoying watching chat go hehe persona like gentleman thief isn't like a whole ass genre
ARSENE lupin??? Persona reference confirmed??!?!?

I love the "they don't give you a tutorial" while the little tutorial text is wildly flashing 45 min in.
Seconds before he said that every variation of peach will dominate cosplay cons I was thinking how I would cosplay her sword fighter outfit
Princess knight might also be a character you would want to look at since it’s very similar to
I have a feeling nearly all cosplays are gonna be swordfighter. Tbf it was sorta the main one they showed afterall.
He just like me fr. The game may be super simple but Peach's little moments and animations just had me smiling ear to ear.
It really is just very charming.
Apparently, Peach's voice is the same as it always was, but her vocal direction is different, I'd akin the performance to Mario 64,

Finally! A fellow Puppeteer enjoyer! Those are incredibly rare nowadays.
YESSS I thought the same thing when I played the first level in demo it’s so similar!! It deserves more hype istg
I agree
Glad I'm not the only one who remembers Puppeteer. That was immediately what I thought of when this game was first announced.
I did NOT expect puppeteer to be mentioned here i used to play it with my little sister all the time goated game
Game starts at 12:00 :)
12:09 * But thank you!
Edit: 13:38 for after the restart
Alpha saw one music based boss and hin and chat said "yeah, every boss is music themed" instead of the obvious equipment theme
Maybe the three bosses are supposed to be the phrase: "Lights, Camera, ACTION!" action being disco, lights being snake, camera being cat.
Hi ogrepon pfp
The cat is a Projector though, not Camera.
The overarching theme of the bosses are different uses of lighting in theater. By no means professional terms, but they seem to represent Decorative, Nessisity, Props, and Highlights in that order.
3:57 was the funniest possible time for UA-cam to give an ad, and if that was intentional, well done.
23:50 this cannot fucking be how i learn yuji naka is serving time that's crazy
I'm so happy that Nintendo is back to being fun and creative with their IPs again. New stories, new characters, and new settings. Reminds me of the gamecube era.
40:00 excuse me what is this absolute bop in the background???
“She doesn’t say that!” MY BROTHER IN CHRIST SHE’S PLAYING A COWGIRL
THIS IS LIKE THE FASTED UPLOAD

nintendo actually has this problem a lot, I guess they prioritize getting the actual game running well
Imagine being a completionist in this game…it’s not fun. If you screw up and miss a collectible, it’s either replay the entire level or give up.
Bro, it's a loading screen, who cares.
I hope this doesn't sound mean but this looks like the perfect game to let someone that knows nothing about games into games, the control scheme is very simple, controls are very forgiving and it's very easy to understand what you have to do! (Plus some very nice animations and good feedback)
She is a necromancer, but with sparkle lol
the moment he started talking about no ads on stream, i got an ad LMAO
This game just makes me want a next-gen Nintendo console. Lol
it sure runs like it was meant to be on a more powerful system
Yeah its a great time until you reach a cutscene and it just randomly chugs. Feels like a PS1 game, having issues with prerendered cutscenes instead of preloading them.
This game by itself could be a whole smash moveset tho
She really looks bald without her crown hahah I get what you mean. Just not complete
34:50 well, someone had to break it to her😆
I honestly hope this game does well enough to get some continuation, and any sequels polish out the flaws.
As a shy guy fan myself I can completely respect him taking second to peach on your list
WHY DID I GET AN AD RIGHT WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT HAVING ADS TURNED OFF💀
Barbie Wonderland is my new nickname for this game 😂. It doesn’t help that I watch Lucahjin’s play through of the Barbie horse riding game for the Wii, and one of the lines in the first episode is “Sparkles mean you can do things!”
Lucahjin would love the Cowboy because of the horse.
She would! Would this horse get a new name or one from one of her previous videos?
@@TwiliXgirl I’d say it’d be named Myballs, as always.
The moment I heard the music for figure skating peach Ik it was gonna be a banger
on a scale from 1-10 I’m feeling very blue solosis right now
What’s everyone’s favorite costume because mermaid peach solos
I like Pastry Peach
I want a mighty peach body pillow
pretty biased towards swordfighter peach. i want her to sweep me off my feet, i want to be her damsel
but what about prison peach
Dashing Thief is my personal favorite but Ninja Peach and Mighty Peach are tied for a close second
I can't wait for the dress tier list
Knowing that the fang dress would be at the bottom hurts me lol. It’s my favorite dress in the game so far
@@jaxsonlambert9750that's fine, Jacob was presenting his opinion like the definitive one, but he completely ignored color theory for what makes good combinations, I don't think someone like that should be ranking fashion
@@rthan1868 I mean he can rank them however he wants, It’s his opinion.
@@jaxsonlambert9750I've literally studied color theory though and him blatantly ignoring that really annoys me
@@rthan1868I get that feeling sometimes but you got to remember not everyone knows what you know.
Genuinely when this game was revealed I was so excited, specifically because I knew Alpharad was gonna have a blast with it
Honestly the villain is kinda ghibli-esque like the witch from spirited away and the witch from Mary and the Witch’s flower. Especially with the music during the scene where she starts pointing at peach in the face with her larger than life bejeweled hand.

Peach's voice hear reminds me of the N64 version of peach, now that I think about it.
Ever played Mario 64?
I don't understand how they went so hard on the different outfits and yet the dresses are just phoned in.
Like, why do the key items look better than the cosmetic purchases???
THAT'S SHOWBIZ BABY 😩
If there ever will be another Smash game, I'm more than hyped for the potential of Peach's new moves and alts
2:06:23 "Oh, I wasn't looking at 'em, I'm just gonna... they're not important."
2:06:38 "Missed one already! How??"

Damn wait ive been watching for 15 minutes and JUST realized how early i was, but yes, i have indeed been looking forward to alpha playing this game
1:37:20 this is what they mean by lethal face card I fear
1:22:17 “Ooo I love how she slides on it” ALPHA WHAT!? You’re married 😭😭
He divorced in like 2021
I would unironically wear the fang dress irl lmao
I love Purrjector, personally. But I like the combo of yellow-purple.
Alpha really speedran that detective segment and skipped the entire storyline for how to get each solution eh xD
I love detective peach so much. The outfit is on point and the segments have been the most enjoyable to me ^^
I have no idea how Alpha looks at the snake dress negatively. I think it looks better than any of the others shown in the stream.
You think it looks good because it follows color theory for a good combination, Alpharad completely ignored color theory to hate on random dresses that look fine
I'll be honest, I agree with Alpharad. It looks really ugly to me and I see why he hates it.

Peach. Dress up. Game. Hell Yeah.
3:19:04
Literally just Kung Fu Panda 1 Tai Lung vs Shifu at the jade palace
Unapologetic skadoosh
I like that the chat is constantly split between "She's so cute!" and "Would."
upon gaining sparkle, the first thing Alpha does is fill the room with innuendo. to the brim.
i like peach games because us girls deserve more games
Just put the emoji there
I couldn't watch this live 😢 so I'm super glad he uploaded the vod so quickly 😊🎉
I actually liked the dress designs
This has the energy of a drunk 18 year old showing up to support his little sister in the school play.
She also talks in Super Nintendo world go see her u will she
Why would you not read text boxes in the tutorial. Why would you skip through them?
I might be wrong, but i believe one of the reasons Peach's voice actress made her voice sound so different is because of the movie, like she was trying to make it sound simmilar to that. Yk, if you compare this game's the old poster with the new one you can see her face looks much more like movie Peach too. Not sure why, but it makes sense to me ig.
this game is less of a game and more watching peach slay and honestly i couldnt ask for anything more
“There’s a ramp up ahead”
“Let’s use it as a ramp”
Someone has not healed from the trauma Tails dished out! 😂
someone put me down already the new peach voice got me actin up
I wanna see someone speed run this, just to see how fast they could do it.
I saw Stella and immediately thought of Wish, and I can't unsee it. 😭
I find his reaction to the Fang dress hilarious because its unironically one of my favorite dress designs
It was love at first sight lmao
16:00 I heard people saying that this game is what Balan should have been like/what they wanted it to be, so I guess that checks out!
I like the mindset of playing the intro levels of a game and deciding its mid. Like, did you expect the master thesis in the intro?
First impressions are important, but yeah a little premature making conclusions before experiencing the whole product.
1:37:34 chuckles: Im in danger
1:25:21 This reminds me more of the anime Magic Kaito 1412(KID)
During the mermaid section, all that reminded me of this game called wondersong where the environment is controlled by music
They need to make a princess peach music box or figures
He really was right with that intro, I never watch his stream vods, and only made an exception for this one
Can we get a Mario Tactics RPG with Job Mechanics and have all these be Peach's classes
Who else noticed on the Ice Skating part, Peach turns the wrong way
28:19 I don’t know alpha maybe read! The controls!
Peach has that mommy voice all throughout the game…
Lol as soon as he started talking about ads I got one
It became her problem when she was locked inside and the Roads outside.
Alpharad has responded positively to peak (Kung Fu Peach)
I repeat, he has responded positively to peak. Sending Like, Subscribe, and Comment.
2:16:19 i found this funny
Nintendo really did look at Balan Wonderworld and said "We should do that!"
I think the reason he likes the cooking minigames so much is because it's just Mario Party.
Her voice is so strange to me !!! I feel like it’s so much lower and calmer than I’m used to? Maybe it’s the newer voice direction or something? But I love when her voice is really over the top and almost snow-white-ish!!
hopefully more peach games in the future
1:23:40 When I hear jazz I think it's Celeste 5b
59:00 speaks to my trans white girl heart to the fullest
With the cat boss after I realized it’s gotta have the bomb in the middle, you can use the ribbon to hit the paws to knock them away. Definitely a weird boss but I do like it much more over the disco bird
thank you
3:06:49
First fumble
I'm getting strong Arin vibes on this one
I just want to see his reactions to all the outfits
1:18:50 pfffft… he ended it… -in minecraft.
I think I get what Jacob means about the voice after the Detective level. This voice is more of a Pauline or Rosalina voice. Peach’s voice is traditionally much higher pitched.
FUN FACT: this game released on my birthday and I got it the very same day! It’s my favorite game ever!
1:48:34 you’ve got the soul reads outside of among us what the fuck
4:08 doesn’t ad removal only work on pc, like it excludes mobile despite the fact it’s more than a pc. Also why no ios skyrim?
For some reason, Peach has a pompadour.
i want a full Mighty Peach game
