You could've made a bonus round counting all the QTEs. The sin score would've skyrocketed.

So the game Order 1886 talks about the Whitechapel (aka Jack the Ripper) murders despite the actual murders taking place in 1888?

If they wanted Arthur Conan Doyle as a character, why make him the police commissioner? Why not make him a pathologist, or even the coroner? He was, after all, a doctor, and he partially based Sherlock Holmes on Joseph Bell, one of his instructors at medical school. Actually, there was a missed opportunity to shoehorn in both another prominent Victorian and a Holmesian reference: have a pathologist, Arthur Conan Doyle, present his findings to the coroner, Joseph Bell.

Step one in actually writing a strong, independent, well-designed female video game character: Do not give her dialogue where she explicitly has to point out to the audience that she is a strong, independent female character. Actions speak louder than words, Ready At Dawn. Anyhow, terrific video as usual, glad to see you still enjoyed the games while giving it the sinning it deserves. ^_^ So now that you have a PS4, I vote for inFamous: Second Son as well. It was actually one of my favorite games of 2014, but yep, that mofo sure is sinful. The biggest sins being that A. Pretty much 90% of the game's plot comes from taking a bunch of old X-Men comics & just replacing every instance of the word "mutant" with "Conduit", & B. Putting at least ten Sly Cooper Easter eggs in the game and thus almost cockteasing me to the point of annoyance.

This game would've been so much better in Co-op. Also, the length was far too short for a game that has no multiplayer.

This game had so many good ideas (like knights and trying to make vampires and werewolves cool again - damn you to hell, Stephenie Meyer!) and they goddamnly fucked it up!

Great video and looks like exactly what I expected. A game that focus on the story and ends up not so good. And I'm voting for Infamous

Normally I hate the other "sins" type channels or the ones that kinda use the cinemasins formula, but your humor, voice, and writing are so close to theirs I cant help but love this channel

The last monologue ("I've seen thing...") ripped off Blade Runner so much. Surprised that didn't get a sin.

I really enjoyed my time with the game but as usual you do not disappoint :)

This game wasn't all that bad. It had decent AI, definitely not bad. It was even brutal at times. The story was cliché and half-assed but it was enough for a shooter game. They were trying to set up a world and they did it but at the cost of satisfacting their customers. Voice acting was top notch. Gameplay was really smooth and simple, not boring either. But the 5 hour length and that fucking ending is unacceptable for a 60$ game. Especially if you take the God-awful QTEs that were everywhere into account. I think this game is good but it has too many flaws. 6/10. If it gets a sequel, I'm 80% sure that it will be great.

Great vid, and Infamous Second Son please.

The lore of this game is what kept me playing, more than the gameplay. The idea of the Knights of The Round Table being made immortal was appealing. But, the gameplay. . .

As a fellow geordie meself, am quite suprised and actually canny happy that we've been mentioned in a video😂

These continue to be well-thought, and very enjoyable. Thank you ! (Because I'm pretty bad at managing my subscriptions, I've only recently realized I wasn't subbed to you. Mistake fixed, and sorry, I'd have done it sooner had I known.) You made a pretty good point with so-called-badass female characters. Writing a hardboiled, quipping action girl instead of a distressed damsel doesn't amount to much, when it's only replacing a cliché with another cliché... Now, I'm not saying that this type of character is always bad (there are ways to tweak this trope). And Isi's far from being the worst example of it. What kills it in her case, I think, is that the player is hit over the head with proof after proof of her « badassery » upon minutes of first meeting her. « Hello here's my character, and yes that's the only character I'm going to get. » It's like CD Project starting their game with a sex scene, so as to 'plant in your mind that ; at the very least [the hero] must enjoy [his partner's] company'. I feel like their might be other ways to introduce a character (whatever gender they might be) especially if the player is bound to see them often over the course of several hours of gameplay. (Also 4:29 made me laugh out loud. Brilliant payback.) I'm glad to see someone went to the _Mass Effect_ School of Elevator-Based Exposition... I've always found said scenes extremely cheesy. I love it when they happen. I'm less glad about of the iconic lines from _Blade Runner_ being lifted. :( Keep up the good work ! I'll be looking forward to _Catherine_...

When Galahad interrogate the poor sod, it looked like the same scene from Watchmen when Night Owl punch the biker

If I watch this video 13 times, it will take about the same amount of time as the whole game. That is a sin...

16:13-16:20 you should've dubbed that scene with the dark knight rises; "WHERES THE TRIGGER! WHERE IS IT! it would've made the the joke even more funny in my opinion.

If i had to guess, when Galahad says "all devices off" it's so that the sonic payload doesn't create some wonderful feedback loops with their comms systems, which appear to be what they proceed to turn off. Have you ever heard what happens when you start messing with those sorts of things? Rather unpleasant.

Now, warranted you're open to it, could I share an idea for a future episode? Kingdom Hearts, just about any of the installments. I'm a small time fan of the series, it's okay overall, but they deserve a good thrashing for what they've done trying to put their convoluted plot in line, and also for the generous amount of people in the fan base who actually take a Disney / Final Fantasy crossover franchise seriously. It satisfies a laundry list full of character and plot cliches, it invents it's own where it's not borrow those of others; characters who die almost always get resurrected offscreen in the next installment; there's a plethora of shameless Disney cameos that have little to no bearing on the actual plot; dialogue that sounds like it was written by a 6 year old with an extend vocabulary; quicktime events; the list goes on... It's a veritable gold mine of sins, definitely worth your at least your consideration.

9:52 Since you brought it up, would you consider doing videos for the Metro series? It would also be funny to throw in a bonus round for all the copies of the Metro books scattered across the levels (not to mention the posters adverts).

The lightning gun is theoretically possible to aim by shooting a ionizing beam through the air first, then launching the electricity to follow the path of least resistance.

Don't Know if this has allready been mentioned on this great video but the Ripper murders took place in 1888 two years after the game is set.

Mario Party 10 has pretty mixed reviews, but actually looking at these I think it's gonna be a great deal of fun :-)))

@Dartigan I had to double check, but I think you used the term "Cold Opening" wrong. Cold opening is usually in reference to where the game, movie, show, media jumps into the action immediately before the title card is shown. This practice I also hate, starting with X-men 2 on Genesis where as soon as you turn on the system you're playing. Same with many games now a days where as soon as you start the application, you're in the game with no starting sequence, no options.. just go.

The aspect ratio was a rendering choice. Using the letterbox format let them render in higher detail using less resources.

'Elementary' Um...that's a statement used exclusively in MOVIE versions of Sherlock Holmes. It never shows up in any of the books. So Doyle the author is known to use a catchphrase from movies of his character made LONG after 1886. They didn't know or care did they?
