my biggest complaint about ashes afterglow: the fact that after you go to the raiders sewers, you're just supposed to... guess to go the the prosperity sewers to go to a door that looks like every other door. absolutely idiocy.

In terms of quality, how does this mod compares to Fo1,2 and ressurection?

Excellent video for an excellent mod! If I understand community lore correctly, you're basically responsible for translating Nevada into English? If that's the case, thanks a million man, you made so many Fallout fans happy ☢☢☢Any chance you would do the same for Sonora? 😅At the very least I hope you'll make a video like this for Resurrection, Sonora and Mutants Rising when/if it comes out 🙏

@KeyboardGecko I remember back in the day, there was a VERY detailed English text format walkthrough of this game mod, that explained how to finish all of the quests, for the life of me, I can't find this guide anymore, I think it way on Interplay's website (now gone). Do you know where I can find this guide or a similar English language guide? I know some of the dialog scripts are very tricky to navigate to get the results you are looking for, CF: Livos and the Jackals.

Now it's time for Ashes Hard Reset, hell yeahhhh

I admit it...thought it's bullshit and you're just a cheap baitclicker. I don't know your channel so what the hell i know. Then I hear "with some inspirations from fallout". OK pause the video and look for the game. Soooo it's 2:00am and stumblefd on your video late afternoon. You weren't lying and it is objectively top 3 boomer shooters, I mean this is only second time this year when a game kept me this engaged. apologies and respect

Looks really interesting. But the main official link does not work anymore. What happened to it?

Doom war wohl ein schlechter Witz dagegen.

I liked Blood. This is cool as well. It never made it to germany that days..

"Ashes 2063 Part 1&2" are one of the best games i have played in a long time. For a free standalone mod, the value is immeasurable and the games are amazing for design and atmosphere. I love and hate the level design equally. On one hand, some levels are huge, look amazing and generally well designed. And the on the other, they are designed this convoluted way of early doom/quake games, where you don't know where to go way too many times. And the levels are full of secrets i can never hope to find, its insane. In a good and a bad way. 10:14 you don't have to fight that. Save yourself some ammo and use the Switch and go. Which is good game design, because they don't force this on you. You could very well be out of ammo at that point anyways. Because the gad damn mutants don't drop ammo, so they are always a waste of resources. 25:25 who had thought the boss can destroy your cover over time. When you hide behind pilars or the windows where the Boss Switch was, it or they/them will destory the window frames to expose your naked arse. Genius. I was not a fan of Dead Man Walking. For a one time play, its fine. But its constantly dark in basically all the levels. Combine this with the 5 second Solar Lantern you have and it will get on your nerves. Even if you brighten up the game, the all dark gets annoying.

Awesome review!

Yo how tf did i miss this? EXCELLENT video!!! Sorry it took me so long

Punch Club: A game too worried about it's memes and references to actually care about it's storyline, for a game focused on a story Punch Club has no worthwhile storyline until the very last possible second, right when the story starts to get good, the game just ends. I'm not playing the second game, lazy bear can fuck right off. Graveyard Keeper: A game that complicates every process waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much, it's just a mechanic on top of another mechanic and so on, it's bloated with useless shit you have gotta do. There is a story and there are characters with motivations or something but fuck if i remember any of that, the story felt so bland and dumb i was not at all invested in it.

I’m right there with you brother! The music is such a good OST. One of the only one I actually listen to on its own.

To make a standalone mod (let's call it what it is a free full game) that is so awesome in the time when amazing boomer shooters are being released all the time, to make it soo good it really stands out from the crowd is an incredible achivement. Becasue Ashes is easly compareable to the best of them!

thanks for the translation, awesome work.

It also makes sense that there were still some working vechicles before fallout 1 but by the time of fallout 2 virtually all pre war cars and bikes just fell apart and rusted away.

Absolutely loved this game. An underground classic. The attention to detail for a mod is unreal.

I feel compelled to write a review like never before. Ashes Afterglow is crazy awesome. I switched from playing Elden Ring mid game after giving this a thing a try. Couldn't stop until I beat all 3 episodes (2063, dead man walking and Afterglow) in a row, such a captivating experience. Ashes scratches a very special kind of itch no other post-apocalyptic game can. While the game borrows some ideas from Fallout 1/2, Metro, Stalker, and a bit of Half Life, the experience itself is surprisingly unique and really comes of as quite original. Pros: -Absolutely TOP tier level design and environmental story telling. Loved EVERY SINGLE map, a ton of memorable moments with heaps of stuff going on, from betting on pit fights to dog racing from lazer tag to exploring old soviet submarines. You are still collecting keys and pressing switches most of the time but the true art here is how it is contextualized in the story and it never stops being fun. -Greatly realized atmosphere and world setting. Heaps of interesting characters to meet and places to visit. It is properly spooky at times and you just get to feel what its like to be a Scav for a day. -Secrets are satisfying, got a ton of unique content. You get to talk to Larry the meat trader, find an atari cartrage and knock some sense in a to gang leader. All very amusing and consistent with the world of the game. Feels a bit like those random encounters in Fallout. -Legendary soundtrack, its so good you'd want to listen to it on its your own. -Addictive gameplay loop, very punchy combat and excellent arsenal. I used most of my guns (maybe not the lazer) throughout most of the game. And then there are upgrads that significantly change the balance in your favor. -The BEST damn Glock in gaming. -Great writing and surprisingly decent voice acting, even if it's only a few lines per level at times. -Solid enemy variety, cool enemy design and surprisingly detailed sprites. -The game somehow encourages you to want to 100% it. -Excellent sound design, from guns to monsters, from footsteps to the sound of the v twin chopper. -2063, Dead man walking and the fist half of Afterglow give an excellent challenge on max difficulty. You have to count each shot and avoid getting hit entirely. The balance is just right, and it makes getting through very satisfying. -There are multiple endings in the Afterglow, where we get to see what happens in the areas after we pass through them. -Mad respect for mind bending tricks and black magic that was used against Doom's engine limitations to pull of these levels. There is a moving train here, yes in Doom engine. -Despite running on the doom engine the game looks much better than one would expect. Very strong artstyle. -Extremely good lighting even by todays standards, I wonder what this would look like with RayTracing with all those explosions and particle effects. Now there are a few small suggestions I could make after 30+hours with Ashes: -That one song at The Wall gets a bit tedious once you hear it loop around a few times. -The second half of Ashes Afterglow could use more enemies placed at the map. I mean the maps surrounding the bad lands, the outcast side, biodome, pipeworks and badlands itself. This is where we start getting some excellent enemy variety yet there are not many instances spawned on the map. Please add a bunch more Marangos, Gasbag Nurseries, Laughing Toms and a ton more Overlods, Hunts, Anomalies and Destroyers. I feel like the missle gap and the stadium get enemy saturation just right. -Not enough radiation hotspots. The gap gets this right, but the outcast side, biodome, and a few other maps could use a lot more radiation spots. -A few to many bugdogs. It makes sence that both raiders and mutants get along with dogs, but maybe we could have another special dog variety or something. I just felt that I fought the dog pack a bit too much. -On max difficulty I ended the game with ~1800 unused scrap, maybe ++upgrades for rifles and heavy weapons should be increased to 300 to prevent the player from going a bit OP towards the end. -Too many health items are available in the last few levels. Had to leave 10+ medkits behind. -I feel like we could use more dialog with the Water Baron, feels like there is an opportunity to get more out if this character given his place in the story. -If more enemies would be added to the later stages, an ability to make ammunition would be handy late in the game. -Does buying food from vendors change anything? Opportunity for a buff? -Add ray tracing??? I'd give this a 10/10. Cant imagine what Vostyok and his team would be capable of if they were given a modern game engine. Can't wait for the next episode.

It's amazing to me that they develop this all for free in an era where we have games like Supplice and Hedon made on the gzdoom engine. They could definitely make money with this but chose not to.

10/10 video. You deserve subs

Agreed with the guy who said the algorithm screwed you over, fantastic content

Excellent video, thank you very much for covering, subbed!

Oh jeez I was worried you were going to absolutely roast my voice acting for the scav. It was definitely not my best work but it was still an absolute blast being part of this game.

13:04 thats why you use the wasd to drive it, the mouse controls are fucked

GREAT NEWS : 3rd chapter out in JULY 2023!!!

it IS the best doom TC I've ever played

amazing review. I'm surprised this game doesn't have more attention. I do hope they consider turning the ashes series into a commercial released later down the line.

BEST Doom MOD EVER!

im having trouble downlaoding this game, do I need to install something to open .pk3 files?

Love <3

Hey, Garavitos VA here, banger video mate. Keep scavving. Also I literally just saw this

I described it once on one of the full OST vids that this game is pretty much the "John Carpenter's : Mad Max" movie that we never got. The desolate feeling, the constant sense of dread and having to be more "tactical" in how you approach places, even the choice of weapons is all but missing the "Snake Plisskin stamp of approval" on 'em xD it captures the feeling of a post apocalypse better than . . . Literally anything else. Even with the motorcycle you get, it has that sense of "Road Warrior" but with a different more grimey lens. Especially when it comes to some of the subtleties with how the military is used. The fact that there is a third one in the works has me more than excited!

once i met a weird crazy old dude who talked like a flat earthist. that guy said that games like Ashes should be these games everyone should play. he talked about stereotypes he wants to see again in the today games until criticizing the blockbusters. that dude have a problem. he forced himself to answer me and imposing his ego. we have the right to enjoy COD Battlefield as well as games lIke this one. Crazy how the nostalgia factor can push the others to be toxic. if you're agree with that weirdo , don't reply me please. i like Ashes , even if that kind of graphics looks old , it isn't so actually and i just love games with powerful gunplay. as well as enjoy playing some blockbusters games.

Found about that mod by an old boomer shooter fan channel named (bigmacdavis) I try it and its mind blowing like the only mod with this level of detail and content i found is wolfenstein blade of agony

I wonder if the recurring number "1221" is an homage to Dirty Harry's badge number (2211). 5:09 Moose kinda looks like Dusk Dude. 5:54 At least one track sounds like it's paying homage to Rammstein's 'Du Hast'. 5:56 The ambient buildup sounds like John Carpenter. 6:34 The shotgun even has a chamber-load animation! 13:02 Hawg wild! 17:45 Jojo's gotta be a reference to 'Blood'. 22:22 Not only does it have a chamber-load animation, but it also throws fairly realistic patterns! 26:29 Possibly an homage to one of the bad endings from S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. 26:46 "Its," not "it's." 28:06 That's not how you do a McMillan Tilt. 28:07 Napalm globs should be more devastating. 29:40 Rifle looks like an FAL. The sight's not actually a scope. Looks more like an old-timey peep sight like what you might see mounted on the tang of a levergun. Fallout: New Vegas has one like that, but it's hard to aim with. When you put one of those on a rifle that already has the usual type of adjustable leaf sight, yer 'sposed ta take the leaf sight off. Plus, that type of peep sight (tang-mounted or otherwise) is meant to be aimed with both eyes open, otherwise yer sight picture looks obscured. In this case, maybe it's an FAL with a magnifying lens mounted in the style of one of those old-timey sights. Kinda like sight1 for combat rifles in Borderlands 1. Btw, imagine Ashes with ADS. 31:00 There's that Rammstein homage! 35:52 Hey, kids! It's Breeki Man! (applause)

This is like fallout 2 but first person shooter lmao

Found out about this game from a different random youtube video and decided to give it a shot Next to Cultic, this has got to be one of my absolute favorite shooters! I'm still going through Afterglow, and I didn't even know about the secret mall level or SMG upgrade in the first game!

I absolutely loved those ghost enemies. Creepy and mysterious as hell, great sounds from them. Their attacks was also a reversal of what you expect graphics wise: Normally energy projectiles illuminate the immediate area, but theirs darkens the area it travels making it much more ominous.

algorithm f'd you over man

1St Episode is really cool. It feels like something fresh and incredible and made with love for the Doom and the project itself. It is a really great idea to add the bike as a usable item as well as to add weapon variations. I walked through the game on the one-breath and recommend it to all! Really great cool work that I could recommend to everybody!. 2nd Episode looks weird. It is a try to combine Doom with Fallout and Stalker, and the most problematic things are that a) I need to read some dialogs instead of walking and killing monsters and b) the Levels are HUGE and often you have no clear guidance of the next step. Like - I killed all the monsters, opened the doors and.. have no idea of where to go. After several wasted hours I was forced to watch walkthrough videos to define what I have done wrong but then decided to stop playing.

😒👍 Thanks for the headsup, I'll download it

i love this game so much.

The sterilized versions of Ashes are great and let you use other mods. I've tried it with LiTDoom and it's great. I just started it with Hideous Destructor and it's challenging and sequence breaking is easier, but it's fun

Holy shit. I can see this review is done with quite a lot of love - but it is clearly all deserved. Can this be set up on mobile? FreeDoom or somesuch?

If the game is meant too be complicated that’s not a bad thing

So Stardew Valley with cannibalism, gotcha.

Liked for the phrog my man

4:00 how is fallout 2 slow? just hold shift to run and its fine.
