    Every spoiler worth knowing before hand: This game is fun. There are aminals. There's secrets. It's very approachable, game journalists could even survive the starting area if they go all out. (I believe in you game journalists, you can do it!!! Don't give up!!!!) It's pretty. ~ 34 megabytes is crazy. (actual spoiler) I put 20 hours into my first run. I'm now at 39 hours with all achievements. And there's about 3 layers more of secrets I never even touched.

    The KH series changed me, I’ve played every game plus the moba and as a child picking up kh 1 was so beautiful and how it made me laugh and cry and when kh2 came roxas was such a amazing written character I didn’t want his summer to end. And a twitch streamer said “ sora is so bright that everyone else has to live in the darkness “ has never been so accurate and tragic yet beautiful

    Was wondering when you would finally post a video about the incredible experience that this gem of a game is. Found your channel a few years ago after my first time playing hollow knight. It has been a while since a game captivated me as much as animal well. Only other game I can think of that I truly enjoyed was rainworld after giving it another shot. Anyways, just had to pause the video even before I watch it just to let you know I've been waiting for this ;)

    Animal Well is certainly a stellar Metroidvania. The Fez-like elements didn't really land for me, but even just the core game and core post-game were absolutely worth getting sucked into and losing all track of time.

    I was also completely sucked into this game at launch. Loved it so much. Somehow, the cool platforming epiphanies were more surprising to me than the puzzle epiphanies. Kinda hope this game gets a randomizer at some point lol.

  • @bjarkibjarkibjarki
    @bjarkibjarkibjarkiКүн бұрын

    honestly, i feel like the secrets of the game are both to the games benefit and to its detriment. the secrets make the game really cool to explore for the first time, but once you beat the game you have to basically retrace your steps and re-explore every area in case you missed something. this makes the game impossible to 100% complete blind (or at the very least makes it take a tremendous amount of effort and time) which for me is honestly a real shame. at least the core game is very fun also, is it just me or does the bubble wand kinda trivialize the platforming sections? i personally got the bubble wand really late, so i was used to abusing the pink item's tech really skillfully in order to get to certain areas. the moment i got the bubble wand, i instantly figured out its tech and that just honestly ruined the whole platforming part of the game for me...

    i have 10 and more years on smite, and a way they did make you pay for the game (except skin kinda) was the god pack, it mean you don't need to farm favor for every god anymore because unlike lol in smite you gain favor in many why, daily quest and playing a match basically so like i did before the god pack i was at a point that i had everything and i could still buy new god easily whitout spitting blood and time like lol do today you can do that in gigantic in a similar way to be fair

    24:03 we call them "Metroidvania" games because of that very specific map, key, gate, game design, but game design is harder to enforce, even by patent...afaik...

  • @ingeniousclown
    @ingeniousclown2 күн бұрын

    There's a subtle but important difference between calling something a "Metroid" game and a "Metroidvania" game. The former is directly using the trademark to say that the game is Metroid, but the latter is a more descriptive term for how the game plays as a comparative term. Using established trademarks as a comparative is squarely within the bounds of trademark fair use, based on my understanding.

    The fact that they wanted to charge 10$ for a game barely few people know and with free similar games such as overwatch 2, paladins and the future coming marvel overwatch and the valve overwatch is such a massive dumb decision. It's a shame about Battleborn tho, they even had a proper PvE mode.

    I wouldn't say that the devs lack talent - so much as they might've been woefully unprepared to operate a live service game. There's a lot of planning and execution involved in being able to do quick updates (without making everything explode), especially when certification is involved, and I don't think they had the structure in place to do it. So, less about incompetence and more that the publishers, management, and leads didn't have the preparation or systems in place to fix Gigantic as quickly as another more-experienced dev. I can't say for sure that that's the case, but an entire dev team usually wouldn't struggle to fix an invincible enemy. Especially if they were skilled enough to relaunch the entire game. Often times, the fix is already found but it's stuck in the dev pipeline because they're overwhelmed by all the different moving parts and aren't prepared to safely shove it into production.

    Mindustry's "mining anxiety" as he coined the term is something else. There will be times you focused on factorio based mechanics so much that the frontline will be breached and enemies will snap you out of factorio chill. Nowadays it works like mix of rimworld and factorio because you harvest fesources, invest in defenses, observe if you will be destroyed or not, move resources to different hexagonal seed generated part on the planet and repeat like until you conquered the whole planet. The only difference is that rimworld is more pawn based and mindustry is more turret based while factorio has more management dillemma while you actively try to defend your production lines
