>20 minute video on why Ratchet and Clank 3 isn't good

Saw that video in my subscriptions and didn't even bother to watch it, that's what disappointed him? I'm really about to unsub from this clown.

I honestly kinda agree with him. It makes me want to go back and replay them since it's been like 10+ years.

>>389097997
He also didn't like how it was more linear.

One thing I don't like about 2 and 3 is the way weapons stop being useful at a certain point, it feels like you're supposed to use weapons until they upgrade then swap them out for something else since they eventually start to do abysmal damage.

Damage in the first game was standardised which meant that if you liked a weapon you could just use it whenever you want, if you like the ninja gun or shotgun in the later games you eventually have to drop it because it does next to no damage and you have limited ammo. Listening to the developer LP and hearing them talk about how this was a "problem" they "solved" was mildly infuriating.

>>389097462
>>389097997
Every /v/ OP trying to talk about e-celeb's is a baiting retard. Brit's point was that the game didn't pull off the world building necessary to justify its premise of a racial divide when the first game went through the trouble of making sure its themes of corporate consumerism were permeating through the whole experience.

*mentally ill voice* i hope the next ratchet and clank game explores racial discrimination in more depth

>>389097997
This should've been the red flag to unsub from him.

>>389097997
He had multiple reasons for why he was disappointed that he does provide evidence for
>multiplayer maps shoehorned into gameplay
>overly linear in comparison to the first two games (he made a chart showing how many paths each level in each game has)
>it was noticeably unfinished given how drab environments were and based on what the devs say in interviews and what is found in the insomniac museum, there is evidence to prove this fact
>the hud doesn't look good
>the jokes aren't as funny as they are no longer some big satire

I wish janitors were more strict with those fucking e-celeb threads

>>389097462
stopped viewing this guy for awhile
his metal gear solid V and yakuza videos were informative but is it just me or is he reviewing the same 5 games like thats all he has?

im still wondering if he would ever make a final fantasy XV video but its just platimum games and metroid videos

>>389099163
He likes what he likes, that being action games and survival horror.
His last 10 videos have been
>Ratchet 3
>Vanquish
>MGS4 defense video
>Crash
>E3 Recap
>RE1 level design video
>Metroid Prime Hunters
>that hour and a half long Ratchet video
>Overblood review
>RE7 review

Is he seriously trying to pretend that Ratchet and Clank is some deep satire of consumerism?

>>389100810
He's not wrong, the first two clearly were light satire of consumerism, as was Deadlocked.
Everything else though is just awful generic shit

There were, but they weren't as vibrant as the environments in the previous 2 games, and he shows this by making a comparison between RaC1's Metropolis and the Metropolis from RaC3.
>they refined the combat
It's basically the same as RaC2's and that is no excuse for RaC3's linearity

a bunch of the better channels have fucked off too; instig8, allosaurus rex, brutalcumpowder. the only good one still going is matthew and he's been getting less interesting over the years

I'd actually argue that Pixie makes more interesting videos than Clemps. He's not terrible, but he just really reiterates the plot of a game with jokes.

i've checked in on almost all of those channels over the past few years and very few of them have their own unique voice or genuinely novel opinions, it's always just stupid tidbits about how the lighting guiding the player along the intended path is good level design or some shit

videos that have about 1-2 minutes of actual content/argument in them are stretched out to 10 minutes, multiple channels have videos on certain games with almost identical takes (eg campster and gmtk videos on dark souls difficulty), people will often play a game once (or not even finish it) and make a video about it etc, the entire scene is just trash

>>389097462
>and doesn't talk about racism enough

His complaint was the complete opposite, though

I didn't even watch it

Why the fuck does he care so much about Ratchet and Clank? I mean it's a decent franchise but making more than 1 video about that series is enough, who fucking cares? Talk to me about some fucking action games dammit.

>>389103904
I wouldn't have a problem with that if he was at least consistent in his own standards. Saying you believe in an ideal, only to contradict yourself in your actions means your words don't account for shit. I mean, he made a whole video that was just hyping shit up, including games no one knew much about at the time.

>>389103725
>made a video showing his displeasure for horror games losing their identity, only to praise RE6 months later
The RE series had gone action long before then, which I'm fairly certain he stated early in the video.
>praises Uncharted 4
Nothing wrong with that, the only good thing Naughty Dog has done since Uncharted 2, and before that it was Jak X
>...but said Vanquish "average" with the smuggest, shittiest tone of voice that makes you punch your screen
Because it had some mechanics that didn't fleshed out enough and wasn't as good as it could've been. Naughty Dog have had about 4 games of experience and criticism to make a good TPS, Vanquish was an original idea with some flaws
>mercilessly shit on MGSV, still has a hateboner for that game to this day
There is literally nothing wrong with that
>...but gave DMC4 a much fairer review even though that game shares many flaws as MGSV
Which he acknowledges in his Special Edition review of it and says the game was worse off because of it on PC, as it added 2 new campaigns that go through the same areas as Nero and Dante's. He liked it in his original review because of the good gameplay and Dante's character. I believe he also liked the level design.
MGSV on the other hand is disappointing because it lacks much, much more than DMC4. DMC4 has a complete story, it just needs a few more areas for Dante's half of it, MGSV is missing complete areas and story, as well as just having filler up the ass.
>criticizes Death Stranding for "improper" usage of real-life actors (even though we don't know much about that game yet)
That was a fair criticism, seeing as it's been 2 years with no gameplay to show for it and just some CG actors running around.
>while defending the inclusion of Jean Reno in Onimusha 3 with the flimsiest excuse possible "cuz it has fairies n shit"
Is this an argument? He criticized that in the same video by saying the Onimusha series didn't get ports because of the actors.

>>389105595
Not all the time. If it's something retarded like his love of Uncharted 4, I won't, but when it comes to Action games or RE, I usually end up defending him.
Hyperbit on the other hand, I'll defend everything he's criticized for, as he's only criticized for his Yakuza videos, which got me into the series

>The RE series had gone action long before then, which I'm fairly certain he stated early in the video.
Still a crappy excuse. It would be like him mocking the God of War reboot and mourning the death of beat 'em ups only to praise it when it comes out. I mean, he does like games with that sort of pacing.

>Nothing wrong with that, the only good thing Naughty Dog has done since Uncharted 2, and before that it was Jak X
Nothing inherently wrong with it, other than bad taste. So just like RE6, guilty pleasures don't make these games good, and his defense of both completely misses the point.

>Because it had some mechanics that didn't fleshed out enough and wasn't as good as it could've been
Lol, like what? Even in its supposed "flawed state", Vanquish makes any Uncharted look like a rudimentary TPS. Out of all the shit he said and did, this would be the last thing I would imagine people defending him on, especially with his moronic voice. Are you him by any chance?

>There is literally nothing wrong with that
He's obsessed with hating that game, even mentioning it on completely unrelated videos like RE6. It's possible the high view count he got from his MGSV video got over this head. After a while it just became obnoxious. Of course, you could still say there's nothing wrong with that if you happen to share the same opinion as him.

>>389104469
>MGSV on the other hand is disappointing because it lacks much, much more than DMC4. DMC4 has a complete story, it just needs a few more areas for Dante's half of it, MGSV is missing complete areas and story, as well as just having filler up the ass
You can't be serious. You fight nearly all the bosses in DMC4 three fucking times in the whole game, and the dice mini-game (especially on the latter missions) is dumb and kills the pacing of the game. At least half of that game is filler. No way it would justify the discrepancy in the reviews between both games.

>That was a fair criticism, seeing as it's been 2 years with no gameplay to show for it and just some CG actors running around
>Is this an argument? He criticized that in the same video by saying the Onimusha series didn't get ports because of the actors.
You're missing the point, he made a video specifically about iconic characters and when it's "acceptable" to use CG actors in games. As bad example, he mentioned DS, and as good examples, I think he mentioned Yakuza and Onimusha 3, the latter of which he excused due its whimsical nature, or whatever. But if that's the case, how can he know for SURE if we don't know anything DS yet? So you're telling me CG actors in Onimusha 3 was a-okay because reasons, but an unreleased game that we very little about somehow makes it bad? Bullshit. His standards are all over the fucking place, he doesn't even know what he truly believes. That's my problem with that faggot.

Not really, seeing as RE went action in 2005 and never looked back, and before you say Revelations, first one was shit, second one was action.

Except he made some fairly good arguments for both games in his videos, and they clearly aren't for everybody, so maybe you just don't like big budget action games?
>Vanquish makes any Uncharted look like a rudimentary TPS
You missed the point though. Vanquish had a lot of flaws and only gets praise because of how depraved TPS games have gotten since it first came out.

No, I'm Canadian. I just like his videos.
>even mentioning it on completely unrelated videos like RE6
That's because the two games were opposites. RE6 was a game he enjoyed that was critically panned, while MGSV was a game he thought was awful but received critical praise.
>No way it would justify the discrepancy in the reviews between both games
There could be another reason for the discrepancy. In his Special Edition re-review of DMC4, he says the rerelease only added problems and that the DmC Special Edition actually improved it. It's possible over time, he just liked DMC4 less, seeing as it's a game you beat twice in one playthrough, despite having a complete story and great gameplay. And MGSV isn't nearly as incomplete as DMC4, what with only about 5 missions actually mattering to the plot, every side mission being the exact same objective and the amount of hype behind MGSV. DMC4 had no hype as he marathoned 1-4 in succession years ago. And he played it after 2 games he thought were good, 1 he thought was awful. I doubt there'd be much hype for DMC4.
>the latter of which he excused due its whimsical nature
I believe that was just a oneoff joke given how he did a Christmas review of the first Onimusha game a while back and not a serious criticism. I believe the Yakuza example was his actual example.
And one of his issues was knowing nothing aboutDS

>Charlie admits he didn't have an online PS2 when R&C3 came out
>and then says he doesn't know why everyone loves that game

Man even I agree with everything he says but the multiplayer is why I loved that game, it was fucking great
I don't remember anything else about it except Nefarious and Courtney Gears and the monkey, the multiplayer was the whole point I'm pretty sure

>>389106512
Ran out of text space and didn't feel like talking about hype. Also, he has good reason for not being too hyped for Death Stranding. The last few Kojima games he didn't like, those being PW, GZ and TPP. He likes Vanillaware though and they probably haven't let him down recently if he does like them.
>>389106545
He's probably playing Kiwami or working on the RE2 video.
>>389107020
He made an hour and half long video about the remake, which lead to people questioning him about why he doesn't like the Future games, which probably led into his dislike of UYA

>>389107247
It's just hard to take him seriously when his reviews are pretty simplistic, but if it gets people to get excited and buy the game then it's fine no matter the game.
Also his Sonic Mania review can be cut in half if he removes the Sonic history of bad games and just review the game.

Hell no. I'm not some dumbass who hates it because it's too action-based, I hate it because the action sucks. The shooting feels bad, enemies barely react to bullets which was a core mechanic in 4 and 5, the melee is clunky, the setpieces are bland and uninspired.

Everything TGB says about it is from the perspective of "WHOAAAAA CRAZY ACTION COOL AWESOME" even though it's not fun at all in practice, it's just cool to look at, like Uncharted.

>Not really, seeing as RE went action in 2005 and never looked back, and before you say Revelations, first one was shit, second one was action.
Yes, it is nigger. So just because the series started to tilt towards action (not as dumb as RE6 to begin with), it's okay to just say fuck it and continue to support that decision? Hell, in that video where he COMPLAINED about survival horror games dying he included footage of Dead Space 3 AND Resident Evil 6. So fucking pick one: either the video of him complaining about the dumbing down of the horror genre was pointless, or his praise for RE6 isn't real. Otherwise, I'll just continue to view him as a flip-flopping cuck.

>Except he made some fairly good arguments for both games in his videos
His arguments for UC4 did not address many of Mother Basement's criticism AT ALL. And his defense of RE6 was him being the usual smug and obnoxious cockhead. He even opens the video with a jab at people who didn't like RE6. Fuck him.

>Vanquish had a lot of flaws and only gets praise because of how depraved TPS games have gotten since it first came out
>only gets praise because of how depraved TPS
You don't know what you're talking about. Learn to play Vanquish.

>RE6 was a game he enjoyed that was critically panned, while MGSV was a game he thought was awful but received critical praise
You're rationalizing him shoe-horning MGSV in there. And I'm pretty sure that RE6 video wasn't the last time he did it either.

>And MGSV isn't nearly as incomplete as DMC4
Yes, I agree lmao. I bet that was a typo, but MGSV had a shit ton more content than DMC4. What's more, he was already complaining about MGSV when Ground Zeroes came out. The lack of content is just a smoke screen when DMC4 was just as bad, he simply wasn't in the mentality to give MGSV a chance. And by chance, I mean not acting as if that game has no redeemable qualities whatsoever.

>And one of his issues was knowing nothing aboutDS
Yes, precisely. So how the fuck can he judge whether that game has well implemented real life actors or not? He can't. Why not just wait until the game actually comes out before he makes a video on that subject? Oh, but that would mean him having some damn integrity.

>tilt towards action
I mean, in RE4 the enemies had machine guns and castles and there was back and forth between Leon and the mid-game villain, and RE5 is about Chris getting jacked to fight a supervillain.
RE6 took the series to its natural conclusion after killing off the only real main villain, and that was by making bioterrorism the main threat. By that point, the series already established that Chris was high up in an elite military force made to deal with bioterrorism and Leon was one of the highest ranking US officers. By that point, there is no going back to horror.

You can complain about something and still like it. That's called criticism.

I do. Vanquish is a flawed TPS and a sequel could iron out those flaws. Calling it perfect leads to nothing but more of the same with no improvements, and Vanquish requires some improvements.
>You're rationalizing him shoe-horning MGSV in there
You asked me to do that yes. Stating the obvious doesn't make for much of an argument.
>MGSV had a shit ton more content than DMC4
That doesn't mean it's more complete. The MGSV openworld is barren, level design is atrocious, there is no character development, the plot is nowhere outside of 5 missions, all 150 or so side ops are the exact same mission, and it just gets tedious and boring after a few hours. At least DMC4 had Dante running around in the second half being funny, MGSV just has some asshole that doesn't say anything and a bunch of guys who are way too serious talking to him.
>he was already complaining about MGSV when Ground Zeroes came out

Really? I just discover both Jim and Arlo recently. I even had a good laugh at their side by side vid talking about BotW weapons durability (can't fucking believe Jim was so unfocused about that whole arlo put up great points) which just proves how subjective people are.

Aside from the odd opinion, I think Jim is spot on when he talks about the shady stuff Game devs and studios alike and his reviews seem understable when you consider what we know Jim values in a game.

So what's /v/ beef with him? Is it because of the fat and the weird get ups and that he looks like he's got Down syndrome?

Also, Arlo deserves one step higher than mediocre. He's seems like a very fair and honest guy.

>>389109259
>He gave no indication he was joking about accepting real life actors in Onimusha 3.
I rewatched that video. He used Onimusha as an example as for why not to use actor's faces in games, as it doesn't get HD ports, and his defense of it is just him saying the game is schlocky and isn't attempting to aspire to the standards of film or trying to be taken seriously, which is what many games are trying to do (he uses the God of War example beforehand).
So, you were wrong, here's the video timestamped at the Onimusha bit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTehTtO1Yec&t=315
>So how the fuck can he judge whether that game has well implemented real life actors or not?
Because Del Toro isn't even mocapping his character, and Norman Reedus and the actor from Hannibal are shoehorned into this. We've seen no original characters.
>Why not just wait until the game actually comes out before he makes a video on that subject?
Because it's been a long time and all we've gotten since the initial announcement is 2 trailers that just show some imagery and actors.
But, according to you, people aren't allowed to criticize things till they're out. Guess that whole Xbox One thing back in 2013 was a huge mistake and we should let Microsoft backpedal on all of that, seeing as it wasn't out then, we can't say anything on that subject unless it's out.
Do you realize yet how retarded you sound?

>>389108083
Fucking Battle Construction Vehicles. I will always appreciate him just for showing me that game.

>>389109918
>RE6 took the series to its natural conclusion
That's really fucking debatable. I mean, if you think the shit in RE6 is anywhere close to being at least somewhat as grounded as RE4, then I can't help you.
Ultimately, this isn't the point; It's the fact he made a video complaining about the dumbing down of the horror genre (while including footage of DS3 and RE6), only to then later praise RE6 when it came out. You can rationalize that however you want, but I simply don't trust his opinion.

>You can complain about something and still like it. That's called criticism.
He gushed over RE6. He called it one of the most legendary games of the past generation. It would be like all of /v/ suddenly praising F2P mobile games even though most people here shit on those types of games.

>Literally who
The name is right there, go watch his video on UC4 and then read TGBS comment and tell me if you think he addressed his major criticisms.
>implying TGBS isn't also a literally who in the grand scheme of things

>Because he hurt your feelings?
Because him strawmanning people who rightfully criticize RE6 while being smug about it doesn't do him, any favors. If you like that type of content, knock yourself out, but that just makes him a second rate thinker compared to many other youtubers.

>I do. Vanquish is a flawed TPS and a sequel could iron out those flaws. Calling it perfect leads to nothing but more of the same with no improvements, and Vanquish requires some improvements.
Holy shit, you're fucking disingenuous. No one called it perfect, the problem is that he completely failed to notice Vanquish's unique qualities and treated that game as mediocre, on top of him doing his most annoying voice possible.

>MGSV
Think what you want, I completely disagree with that and I'm not going to repeat myself. Point is, he's failed to at least give some credit to the gameplay, and that makes him a poor reviewer.

>>389101120
Ok. Turbo button

I just watched a 20 min video of a guy using not only info from other people's words (Horray for crediting them) and confusing flawed individual game designs (autocrouch, mixed up button layouts, shit difficulty settings) with a natural mechanic such as cover system.

This is the "greatest thing objectively" eh?

I mean it's not bad and it's rather interesting and yet really? This is wha /v/ agrees on according to that chart?

You brought up a shit anime reviewer in a vidya-related eceleb discussion. And I'm not calling him shit because of TGBS stuff, I'm calling him shit because I just found out he's the guy autistic enough to think anime OPs are anything more than pop music ads with imagery from the show.
>Because him strawmanning people who rightfully criticize RE6
I believe he was talking reviewers, seeing as it got panned on release and he loved it.
If something went down in the comments, I wouldn't know. I don't browse Youtube comments because I don't want to be exposed to shit taste.
>he's failed to at least give some credit to the gameplay
He talked about the gameplay though. He said it was simplified and made dull, seeing as CQC is now just a buttom prompt rather than an action you take and can actually fuck up. The gunplay is also easier, which I think he mentioned. MGSV has okay gameplay, it just doesn't have a game to support that gameplay

>his defense of it is just him saying the game is schlocky and isn't attempting to aspire to the standards of film or trying to be taken seriously
>So, you were wrong
Wrong about what? That's exactly what I said, Onimusha has a whimsical tone to it, therefore it's okay (although, the story was very serious for the most part). The problem is we don't know how DS is going to be like exactly. Kojima typically adds campiness to his games too, so it's up in the air whether DS will be good or not in that regard, because the game hasn't even come out yet.

>Because it's been a long time and all we've gotten since the initial announcement is 2 trailers that just show some imagery and actors
That's a complete red herring. The topic is about evaluating iconic character and the proper usage of real life actors in games. Saying "oh, I've waited so long so I'm just going to blow my load right now" is a poor excuse. To even decide if a character is iconic or not, we actually wait for years after a game comes out, not by the trailers.
>he's comparing MS' business practices to make final judgements of trailers of an unreleased game
No, you're the retard.

>>389111406
He hardly does reviews. He's not giving scores, only listing out personal grievances with games. And you can believe what you want because not everyone is just happy with "gameplay".

When people think MGS, it's not just about the "gameplay". It's about it's story, it's characters and themes. They slapped on MGS on a game that could've been its own game and would've been even better received with no unsettled fans but it wasn't. because MGS is the game that can be marketed for guaranteed sales rather than come up with a completely original IP because "Pachinkonami" and "Movie director Kojima".

If I wanna played an interactive, openworld game that's actually alive, I'd play GTAV. If I wasn't a stealth game/ with drama, I'd replay any other MGS game or even Splinter Cell or Deus Ex.

>>389112334
>Onimusha has a whimsical tone to it, therefore it's okay
He said that it was okay for not trying to take itself seriously, which he was comparing to the new Call of Duty, not Death Stranding. Death Stranding was compared to Yakuza and that is made clear in the video.
>Kojima typically adds campiness to his games too, so it's up in the air whether DS will be good or not in that regard, because the game hasn't even come out yet.
But we already know it'll be serious based on the past 20 or so years of his career and the tone of the trailers.
>To even decide if a character is iconic or not, we actually wait for years after a game comes out, not by the trailers
He wasn't deciding that, he was just saying that games that do this don't age well and the character within don't end up being iconic. He said the same MIGHT happen to Death Stranding
>No, you're the retard
It was an apt comparison, seeing as how you're saying we have to wait till things come out to criticize them. Am I not allowed to criticize shit like The Emoji Movie based on a few trailers? Or how about the new AssCreed's gameplay trailer, am I not allowed to criticize that because it's not out?

>>389112560

Fair enough. He may not be officially a reviewer, but when it comes to his standards, they're all over the place and I don't trust his opinion. Simple as that.

You don't have to be a horror game or have no humour to be serious. See the Yakuza series, hilarious games but they have super serious stories.
>So it's pointless to make any sort of judgement based on cryptic trailers
If you're a fan of something, you'll follow it and make guesses as to what a new thing related to the thing you like is.
Also, you want these trailers to come out and have there be no discussion about them? Lack of gameplay, overuse of actors, small details found within them, these trailers were made to generate discussion in some way.

...So you just took his word for it, then? Just out of curiosity, I'm watching some cutscenes of OM3 and it's just as I remember it; it has dramatic music, cinematography is slow-paced, presentation is gritty. So yeah, the game does take itself seriously for the most part.

Charlie is okay, I don't watch his content enough. I understand his action game/ DMC fetish, because I enjoy the genre and his content on them is fine. Defending MGS4 is a catch 22 with me, I like it but I don't think as a game it's worth defending, it barely passes my standard as """"" video game.""" It has some cool scenes like the Snake vs Ocelot for the final time, other than that I don't really think much of it in a high regard, should've let the series wither and die there.

I think from whatever small snippets I've seen Bit's content I don't like, and the guy seems like an ass. His NieR video left way more to be desired from and his 0079 video was regurgitating the plot of the show with some minute explanation of his personal experiences. Being a Fatefag doesn't help him either.

You can fight social justice without fighting against left wing ideologies. I would know, I do that every day. The political right is wrong about just about everything EXCEPT this, which isn't even intrinsically left as much as it is a rabid mutation of leftist values given pink haired bulldyke form.

Gamergate shouldn't have failed. It was doing good work at first. But I have grown tired of this... "argument" I guess you can call it technically.

GC has problems of its own. UYA might have had the most sterile level design and enemy variety, but GC's variety gives it consistency problem. There are a few of >that level, like Snivelak and Grelbin.

>I rewatched that video. He used Onimusha as an example as for why not to use actor's faces in games, as it doesn't get HD ports,

Honestly I find the very idea that you can chastise a game for not having the foresight to be available for consoles that don't exist yet to be idiotic in itself.

Why should a game have to worry about 10 years from now when it's only real responsibility is to be good at the time it comes out.

>>389101246
He didn't say it wasn't funny, but the overall comedy of the game feels slapdash, rather than the cohesive themes of the previous games.

R&C's humor is a work of satire, whereas UYA is a game that tells jokes.

>>389125564
That's also a very good point. What really gets me is the double standard, though. What is he really saying that Onimusha 3 implement real-life actors well, but somehow Death Stranding suffers the risk of failing in that regard? Especially when we know so little about that game now.
Frankly, it seems like he had an axe to grind with Kojima for a while, and he just felt the need to let that out which ultimately compromised his reasoning.

That's just one of the reasons I stopped watching his stuff, and even ignoring all of that, his type of content is like a dime a dozen on youtube. He's really nothing special.

He's just got a very, for want of a better term, "mellinal" attitude. One where every game needs to be on every system and be there, available forever.

I replay A LOT of my old games but that's not what I buy new systems for and I have enough common sense to know that sooner or later my old systems will be "obsolete" and that if I want to play my old games I need to keep the old systems. It's insane to think otherwise. Good games will stick with us and stand the test of time forever but Onimusha 3 isn't a failure because it didn't know that 4k TV's are going to be a think over a decade later or that HD ports would even be a thing. That's BS. That's backwards thinking.

Having Jean Reno and the guy who played Samonsuke or any of the other celebs who appear in games was cool at the time and it's cool now. Just because some whiny 20 something who never played these games at time in the first place wants to have everything handed to him but better doesn't make it not cool.

The only differences are that GC had more secrets locked behind later powerups like magnet boots and that GC would put 2 short paths through each level that you had to complete instead of one long path through each level like UYA
You still had to go through both paths in GC, having access to two instead of one big path just gives you the illusion of choice

>>389127720
>having access to two instead of one big path just gives you the illusion of choice
Except you can choose which one to do first, and it creates a more interesting level.

Nobody likes a fucking hallway.

And nobody SHOULD like fighting Tyrrhanoids for the whole game.

I havnt watched the video yet but I've been saying this since it came out.

> tone is very different, the established aspects of the universe were removed for the sake of the story they wanted to tell and cheap jokes. Sense of a vast mysterious galaxy is gone. In 1&2 each new location was brand new to Ratchet and Clank and they went through thier travels naturally. In 3 you are working for the galactic rangers (which seems to retcon the failure of individual planets to defend themselves against Drek in 1) who just tell you where to go.
> much more overt comedy, 1&2 were a mix of childish humour, subtle adult jokes and some very bleak satire about the power and carelessness of massive corporations. It's like the platforming:shooting ratio, it went way out of whack in 3

I've held these opinions forever, and not many people agree with me (although the linearness is usually an agreed problem). I wonder if this video will change people's minds.
It's still a fun game. But it doesn't quite have the magic of 1&2.

I wonder how he feels about Deadlocked.

Personally I like it better than 3 because it knows it's a different type of game and goes fully into realising it. 3 was an awkward blend of changing the stuff, but also trying to keep the original formula intact, ended up half adding them both.

Also Deadlocked is the most satirical in the entire series. It's reminded me a lot of Robocop with the ads glorifying the over-rhe-top consumerism and vapidness Vox was pushing.

>>389127902
no it doesn't, it just means that when you "beat" a path you go "oh wait, i have to go back and do the other one now"
some of them "spice it up" by forcing you to get a power up before you can do them but overall i never felt like having split paths made the game any deeper
don't get me wrong, i like GC but UYA made the levels feel more cohesive and straightforward
I also preferred the focus on combat instead of exploration because the highlight of ratchet and clank to me was always the weapons you use, and UYA balances your weapons better and has more satisfying upgrades

>>389128403
I loved the writing in Deadlocked. Insomniac were definitely bringing their A game there. As for the rest of the game, I'm not sure. It did actually add mechanics, rather than Ratchet 3 which only seemed to remove things which were iconic to previous games and only added a couple of vehicles.

>when half your arsenal is useless halfway through the game
You mean like UYA? The enemies turn into bullet sponges and most of your early gear gets thrown aside without a second thought.

>>389128737
Ratchet 2 is full of optional paths which aren't mandatory but give you bonuses.
Off the top of my head:
>Oozla has the hidden boss and box breaker
>Endako has the grind rail which leads you to Slim's mod shop
>Notak has the path which leads to the Nanotech upgrade
>Joba has the path which which takes you to the Hoverbike races and the Charge Boots
>Todano has the path which takes you to the Sheepinator and Quark Fanboy
>Boldan has the grind rail to Slim's mod shop
>Aranos has the Plumber
>Damosel has the Map-O-Matic

Ratchet 1 was full of optional routes through levels as well. And these paths offered major upgrades.
>Novalis has 2 gold bolts in 2 entirely optional parts of the level
>Aridia has Skid's agent
>Eudora has the Suck Cannon
>Rilgar has the hoverboard race
>Batalia has the Metal Detector fortress
>Pokitaru has the Persuader
>Orxon has the nanotech machine
>Hoven has the miner and the hydro-pack girl
>Oltanis has the Sheep Gun Ray and PDA
>Quartu has the gold bolt waterway
>Kalebo III has the Helpdesk girl
>Drek's Fleet has the codebot in the waterway

And unlike Ratchet 3's shoehorned multiplayer maps, these are actual level sections with gimmicks of their own rather than copypasted crap.

In Ratchet 3, I can only think of the following non-mandatory paths.
>Daxx has the path which takes you to the trophy
>Holostar Studios has the path which takes you to the Titanium Bolt
>Veldrin Starport has the alternate route with ninjas that gives you the box breaker

>>389129491
Oh fuck, I didn't even mention Gaspar. That was full of hidden optional paths! There was the whole ship docking section over the lava, and the bit where you glide into the volcano.

Anyway, I think you get the idea now.

>>389127979
I haven't watched the video b/c fuck e-celebs and I haven't read the thread b/c fuck reading, but
>much more focus on combat than platforming
2 had the exact same issue. It did have a few more platforming sections by virtue of being a longer game overall, but they were nothing to write home about even compared to what little 3 offered.
> several planets are just multiplayer maps with segmented combat scenarios
2. It's an issue and it's especially annoying on replays, but it's literally 2 planets. Marcadia just uses the multiplayer map for the second third of the level and Mylon only uses it for the final boss fight. The remaining 2 are entirely optional.
I do agree Rilgar at the very least has no reason to be in the game. It adds nothing. The most barebones level design, and not even a vehicle section to break up the pace.

Agree with the rest. Good point about the universe feeling a bit flanderized when compared to the previous games.

>>389129319
Not that guy, but GC pretty much forced you to abuse the Bouncer in the last few planets unless you wanted to die of boredom.
UYA has an issue with weapon scaling, but it's not nearly as bad as GC. Sure, you can't do shit with the N60 during endgame, but that's always been the case with the basic pistols after the first R&C. (The Combuster's pretty solid though.)

>>389129319
nigga I didnt count one instance where i didnt think the n90 hurricane, shock cannon, or nitro launcher was useless in fact they were my go to weapons to use whenever I needed to. the only useless weapon I can think of is the infector

>put him in mid tier below shit-tier channels that are just >opinions

>>389129927
The Infector is a bitch to upgrade, but once you have it upgraded it's a nice diversion.
I think the issue with it is that it's an awkward implementation to begin with. It's kind of hard to tell when the enemy's infected and how long will the effect last, and enemy AI often has trouble handling infection.

>>389098152
But they're all linear

>>389130297
Varying degrees of linear, though.
Refer to >>389129491 for a recap. Also consider all the planets in 1/2 having two mandatory paths, as opposed to just Daxx in 3. There's also the matter of the order you can tackle planets in, although I don't recall 3 being much worse than 1/2 in that regard.
