A lot of people really want me to watch this. This is looking extremely good. This might actually be one of the best-looking video games coming out. This is part of that, what I would say, next generation of gotcha games is. This is looking really good. I haven't watched it. I just saw screenshots.

Dozens are dead. Burn to ashes. You may be the best detective. But Sylvania isn't the best city there is. That's not. The city is like liquid silver. Always changing. That's big.

What is true might not always stay true. Holy shit. Sin and evil stalk the city like a stubby shadow. Oh, kill the bitch. Uh-oh. That's right. I need an assistant. I'm off.

I'm here for the interview. It's an anime cat girl. No, she's not a cat girl. Wait, she does have a tail. I don't know. Anyway, with a shotgun shooting werewolves in Britain. That's right. The Winchester shotgun, yeah.

Welcome, Insolphonia. Do you not talk to the detective with that tone? Oh, what are you going to do? Besides fire, there's another way to turn the skin black. You know what it is, but it's just too peculiar. Wait, can you drive this car? They have to investigate Justin Trudeau to find out what it is. That is, I'm a boss fight and she's in a fucking carriage.

Fair tales want something else to us. Look at that. Holy shit, yeah. They've got a gameplay trailer. We're going to look at the gameplay trailer. You are the author. Oh, shit. I'm no longer a detective.

So why are you still so excited? Turn-based combat or not? No, I think it's action combat. So that's the official trailer. Obviously, people loved the official trailer. This is the actual gameplay showcase. This is what really matters. I will say that the graphics and the quality here,

I would say that this is a step up from, like, I would say Genshin or even weathering waves. I think for like the level of like color graphics and like lighting and everything, it's a step up. Like, if, for example, like, if you compared it, like, you know, like, Wuthering Waves 1.0 versus 2.0, this would be like 3.0 Wuthering Waves. Like, this is as good as Arnights Enfield, I would say. Is this a gotcha game? What do you think?

but no, but not so much it's not this is not honging d'id This looks really good. The lighting's crazy? Yeah, it is.

I'm surprised, actually, a lot of these outfits aren't really that, they're not that showy or anything like that either. It's not a lot of like Coomer farming or anything like that. Oh,

some of them are. Just wait. And they have male characters, too, which is really surprising. Yeah, they don't have those in a lot of games. Just wait the bunny girl character? Okay. I think the character designs are pretty decent.

Like, they're good. So, all of gunnese do a lot of censorship? Yeah, they do. You just get on your magical youth. Oh, shit. You're going to customize his hooves? Damn.

Drifting on the unicorn? Oh shit. Yeah, exactly. So you have to like investigate people and find out whether they're good or bad. You can tell she's bad. Yep, see that. So this is the actual combat here. I print thanks to it, 10 gifted subs, I appreciate it.

So I think there's like combat weak points here too. So you have like finisher whenever they get stunned. What's terrible? I think it's choppy. That's the problem. The combat looks choppy. So you have to like do an investigation and figure out where... Oh, there's them.

Oh, wait, I'll move back. So this is, I guess, the map where you have to like go and do all the little objectives and shit. Will you my choppy? Like it drops frames. That's good. You know the running is on a 5090s, who? Investigate and remove furries? Yes. Basically the game is you have to figure out who the furries are and then you kill them.

And then you find out the main leader of the fernies. furries and you kill him too. Yes. See, this is that false positive. They thought that was a furry. But just in case, yeah, you can never be too safe. That was a, uh, they had to, um, uh,

there was an investigation. Foucan, the city, you know, to think of thinking. That's a whole lot. God damn. stamina? You know, I don't see any stamina either. That's a good question. Yeah, I wonder if they have that.

Warcraft 20.0. No, they wouldn't be able to load this big of a screen. It's a pretty big sitting. Yeah, I know, it's huge. And this is also like their pre-alpha 1.0 version, especially if you can go inside of these different houses, too. Like, almost no games have this. Even like, uh, big AAA games don't have this. No loading is crazy. Yeah, I know. She's investigating looking for furries. Okay. What did you say earlier? To be fair, this, this game, there's like a handful of sexualized characters in this game.

Whereas like, look, compare this game to Zinless Zone Zero, where every single character is gooner bait. Every single one of them. Even the bear is. Don't believe me? Don't look it up. Just believe me. Oh, she's like fucking, uh, what do you call it? Interrogating him.

Well, what about due process? Yeah, this game is made in China. Okay? Yeah, that is your due process, exactly. So like there's a stagger bar, and then like once you fill that up, I guess it's obviously like, um, you know, it's like a lot of games where like once they're, uh, you know, low, you can do like a finisher on them. Like an execute. I think the combat looks pretty good, but I feel like the numbers are a little bit messy. And the UI is kind of, uh, it's like very basic.

I think that like a little bit of stylization for the UI would really go far. And I think also if you want to have a like a combat, a lot of combat situations where you're fighting like multiple targets pre-alpha, yeah, that's why I'm saying it. That's exactly why I'm saying it. Like I wouldn't say it if the game's coming out next week because it doesn't. matter. That's why I'm giving my feedback now. I'm saying this is, this is the reason why I'm saying it now. And so anyway, I like the UI. I think, no, I think like this, this part of the UI is really clean. This part of the UI is really clean. But can you get like this, this is very basic, right? And, and I think that a little bit of flare to it would make it more exciting, right? Target indicators to see off

screen. Yeah, I just think being able to zoom out a little bit more would probably be really nice, especially as a PC player. Yeah, the health, like the health bars are what I'm discussing right I'm not talking about this this looks really nice this looks really nice the health bars is what I mean damn like that looks really good the night girl looks cool yeah that's really good is this a boss fight I'm assuming it is right it has to be okay all right this is this all millions yeah this is pretty good it's like phase two I have to say this is fucking cool this is really fucking cool.

It's amazing. Yeah, this is really good. Yeah. I think it looks really good, guys. I do. I think this game looks really, really good. Yeah, it's a big W. I don't know when it's going to come out

or what it's going to be. Like, when it's going to go in. But like, yeah, this is badass. And the music is salt. Yeah, I mean, like, especially like, just like the cinematic and everything like this. I think also, you know, really, it's going to be like, I think these games really kind of live and die based off of

like their continual content updates, like, the characters. And like, if the characters and the content updates for this game are really good and they're continuous, then I think you're probably going to see a lot of people being, like, super positive about this game. And, like, I've already looked like on, on, uh, fucking Twitter and everything. People are massively, massively popular, like, or this game is massively popular on Twitter. Like, people are, are super, super positive about this. And, like, obviously, it takes the same approach where it's like, you can either be, like, the male or the female protagonist.

And so this is obviously, like, the, uh, the girl protagonist, pretty much what you'd expect. And this is the, uh, the male protagonist as well. And you got that top hat, you know, Supreme gentlemen. Of course, never played a gotcha game. The game looks awesome. No, yeah, it's, the funny thing is that a lot of these games are actually really good games. It's just that they have monetization structures. that make them bad.

Like, that's pretty much the issue, right? With almost every gotcha game, that's the problem. Is that you have a great game that is problematic because of the, oh, she is a cat girl. Okay, what a surprise. Yeah, so it, because if you look at the actual combat, you know, for example, like, let me, I could find like some visual or some image of it or something like that. But, you know, in general, I think that's the case.

How much money do I need to play this free to play game? probably a lot. I mean, the fact is that if you're a regular player of any gotcha game, like, or at least any of the good ones, like Zenless Zone Zero, Genshin-Sheon Impact, Honkai Star Rail, Wuthering waves, like any of the actual good ones, you can play the game completely free to play, and if you're playing regularly, you can keep up and beat all the content.

Like, maybe there will be one level at the highest level of, like, an event thing that free to play would really, really struggle with or wouldn't be able to do, right? But in almost all cases, there's going to be examples of some people that are able to do that, right? So, like, Lost Ark? Um, no, because, like,

so the difference between these games and Lost Ark is that, so with Lost Ark, one of the big reasons why Lost Ark sucked is because you had to do so much work, right? Like, whereas in these games, like, the amount of things that you can do in order to advance your character, is actually pretty limited. So the only way that you can increase that limit is by spending money.

It's not like you can make three characters on these games and pool resources like in Lost Ark. The reason why Lost Ark died is because it made people repeat the same process 700 times a day until they hated the game. Yeah, it turned it into a job. Whereas with these games, like whenever I'm saying playing regularly, like I could go and do weathering waves. I could finish my dailies and do everything out of weathering waves, burn down all of my energy, and do 80% of my daily activities in that game in like 10 minutes. Right. And so, like, that's the big difference between these games and Lost Arc,

is that you can play these games fast, but obviously, and there are things that you can farm and things will take longer, right? Like, for example, five minutes actually, yeah, maybe you're right. don't know. But like, I'm just saying in general that's where I would be at. But do you have fun? Yeah, I think the games are fun. I think that's not the problem. Like, with these games, like, this is not, the problem with these games is not that they're bad. It's that their monetization makes them bad. That's the issue. Like, this looks amazing. This is awesome. My year's just passed away. Is that right? Let me see here.

How many bad, right? Yeah, what is this here? Boring and expensive? I don't know about being boring. Expensive it can be, but you can play these games free to play. And it's only, so if any, if a gotcha game has PVP, that's whenever you need to be afraid. Because that's whenever they really want to waste your fucking money.

Gameplay is usually fun. That's how they get you into them? Yeah, exactly. This game has no PVP. Yeah, I know. It's probably going to be good. then, right? And so I've never spent a dime on Gacha micro-transactions. Have you seen the New Weathering Waves Character Socase? No, but I heard about it. But yeah, like the finishers are

pretty good. Like, I would say, I mean, with a lot of these games, like, to me, the only thing that I care about with video games is good gameplay. Like, that's literally the only thing that matters to me. Everything else besides gameplay is, like, really pretty much irrelevant. And so when I see this kind of stuff and I look at it and I'm like, okay, well this is, this is, this is Christ. This gameplay looks really, really good. And so, like, I'll play, I'll play a game that has, like, bad monetization with good gameplay, but I will never play a bad game with, a game with bad gameplay. Never.

See Cardiffia preview? Yeah, I'll look at it. Give me a second. Sure. I think Weather and Waves says better gameplay. Honestly? I think you're right. I do.

I think Wuthering Waves' gameplay for this is probably better. And I think, like, really, it's going to be hard to beat that. Does it? Yeah, I think so. Yeah, I do think so. This game's world shits on Wuthering Waves, though? Yeah, it does. Yeah, like, the world building is, like, insane for this.

This is so good. Yeah, this is the, uh, let me see if I can pull this up and, and, find it like but yeah this is fucking insane like look at some of these images oh my god yeah that's awesome Asian games that are all shit the thing is that I don't what do you mean none of these games are shit it's just they have shit monicization that's the issue like the games themselves I think are really good you know rip Genshin forever uh oh it is kind of funny to go back and look against an impact and then compare it to some of the newer games. Because, like, yeah, it is definitely a lot different.

Let me see if I can find it. Copy-paste, yeah, definitely. So this is the gameplay of the new character. You want me to look at? This is from another game. I pay $70 for this, but I'm not playing a gotcha. Yeah, I think a lot of people feel that one. What the fuck?

God damn. Yeah, okay, well, there it is. And it's insane. Well, I mean, like, again, it looked like, the character, the character looks really cool, but... Why is we scared? Sorry about that. Fucking, God, the volume on this is so garbage. And, um, anyway, yeah, this one looks better. Uh, switch to bigger boobs. Uh, so in the story of the game, uh, it's, it's dumb, right? And so pretty much this is how it works, is that, is that, you there's like her soul is split in half and like half of her is this like kind of this like this girl here and then half of her is like well the evil version so there's like a um what's the word for it like a the the the like an evil demon like a like a demon overlord that is controlling her and that's the one that's controlling the like the older version of her right

The alter eagle. Yeah, exactly, right? The Theronodeon. Well, that's the actual name in the game, right? But nobody knows what the fuck that means. And so, like, think of it as like an arc demon that's, like, controlling them. And so, like, yeah, that's basically it. Multiple personalities, like most women.

Yeah. Yeah, basically. And I feel like this is, like, this is pretty predictable. Like, as I said, I thought anybody could have assumed that this was what the game was going to be. Bigger booboo equals stronger character. Well, I mean, that's actually true. Yeah, you're right. It's crazy how much games like this.

and Arknight's infield, in my opinion, just makes Zimless Zone Zero and I'd say Genshin even. Not so good, huh?
