The Evolution of Stealth Horror?
Amnesia is one of my favorite horror game series so I'm super excited to review the newest game in the series that released earlier this year. Amnesia: The Bunker, is a new high in the series as it works to evolve the gameplay mechanics of the genre it created, what I call "Stealth Horror."

The Video Game Vibe Check is a new series I'm starting where I'll do quick reviews of games after playing at least five hours. This one for Super Mario Wonder is a little late as I was still working on my last video for Resident Evil along with other things happening that made it difficult to get this out closer to release. I appreciate you watching this and sharing your thoughts in the comment...
How Resident Evil Can REmake Perfection
Просмотров 591Год назад
With the newest amazing remake out for Resident Evil 4, the question on everyone's mind has been what will be the next Resident Evil game remade. There's been much debate on the idea of the first game in the series being remade as it was technically the first game they remade back in 2002 on the GameCube and then remastered that remake for all current platforms in 2015. But still that remake fa...

In preparation for my retrospective on The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening, I played both the original and the remake again. Here is the video footage from my playing of the Gameboy Color version of the original game on the Nintendo Switch Online Library. It does include 100% completion with all pieces of heart and seashells found, at least enough to get sword upgrade. Some skips in the video ...

In preparation for my retrospective on The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening, I played both the original and the remake again. Here is the video footage from my playing of the remake on the Nintendo Switch. It contains the full story. Not 100% of the game as it doesn't have all the seashells, pieces of heart, or the dungeon creator quests completed but does show where to collect enough seashells...
Zelda Series Reboot We Didn't See Coming (Thoughts from the Depths)

In the time I've been working on my next video I saw some talk about theories for where the Zelda series can go from here and just wanted to put my two cents into a video to share and add to the discussion. So I thought of a video concept for a potential series that just has gameplay footage from The Depths while talking about theories and ideas, which can be anything in general but I figured t...

Thank you so much for watching and sorry it took me so long to upload another video. This wasn't the one I originally intended on doing next after my last video on Majora's Mask but I feel this helps explain why it took me so long to do another video. I never felt as addicted to a game as I do for Tears of the Kingdom. This game made me feel deep feelings that usually I don't feel for games or ...

Seen many of these but purple heart was new to me. TY
I haven't lost anything but this was my 4th Zelda game (After Ocarina, LTTP, Awakening and Twilight Princess) and has been my Favorite since i was a little kid. Even as a kid this game was deep andI still see it as the greatest piece of art ever made. And as the Best Zelda game, Ocarina is overated.
Glad to hear mm helped you.
This is sick! I fucks with this, hard!!!!
Sorry for your loss. This video made me tear up. This game is truly a masterpiece. I’m in my 30’s and I remember playing it when it first came out. And it’s still aged quite well. Thanks for the video. It made me feel something for the first time in a long time. Kinda in a bad place mentally and it felt nice to feel something
This is great
Thank you!
That sounds really awesome, do you have tabs or anything like that so i could learn it too?
Thank you! Sorry I don’t have tabs. Just learned the original song by ear and the rest was improvised during the recording. The song mostly just plays around the chords G major 7th add 9th and C major 7th add 9th. But left hand just plays the root notes and the right hand for the original plays B E B E F sharp G B A G D in that order.
Thank you I know now that I'm not alone on this.
good
Thank you!
This game gave me levels of anxiety I didn’t know were possible on my first play through. I’d have to put it down for weeks.
Until I got the Phantom Cloak I was ready to rage quit the game forever because of how annoying the EMMI stealth parts were. I still have some difficulty but the cloak makes all the difference.
The remix is so insane
Thank you!
Whats the music called
This is a lofi remix I made of Requiem of Spirit from Ocarina of Time
Bro thats good
Thank you!
Nice remix 🔥🔥🔥🔥💪💪
Thank you!
🔥🔥🔥💪
It really dose
Sorry for your loss and thanks for the video
Nice video
Thank you!
I'm all for it not necessarily Lisa being a stalker but maybe more encounters could be fun. My hopes is that it comes out in 2026 for the 30 year anniversary, the 2002 version is fun but man the Spencer mansion in the RE Engine, potentially stronger boss fights, better dialogue, connecting story it just excites me.
Hard disagree. I hope the dont remake 1. Especially with your ideas of trying to tie Ethans story to the first game. I hate 7 and 8 as resident evil games. They are fine games on their own, but suck as resi games. Pursuer enemies are only kinda fun for your first play through. They mostly become tedious on multiple plays. Re1 would have to change on a fundamental level to accommodate re engine. It's possible, and the closest analog would be remake2 but I don't think current capcom could pull it off without messing it up. Limited mobility and combat options was balanced around the amount of enemies in the game and smaller rooms with narrow halls. If this was remade on re engine it would have to be a slow, methodical and punishing game. That style doesn't seem to appeal to the mostly newer re fans. If you can move and shoot, they would increase the amount of enemies. Or make them super hard to kill. Look at re4. It was perfectly designed around the limitations. Compared to re4 remake, which I feel was bloated and unbalanced mechanically, especially on harder difficulties where the design flaws are more obvious. Teleporting enemies, endless stun locks, all because it was a necessary response to the additions capcom made to the remake. If you couldn't move and shoot, they wouldn't have made enemies teleport. If you couldn't deflect with your knife, enemies wouldn't be able to stun lock you to death. Idk, I would most likely play it, but I don't have a ton of faith that it would have a lasting impact.
Hard disagree to your disagreement, I'm not sure about your experience but at no point did I have teleporting enemies or get stun locked to the point of a constant issue. If they were to remake 1 again it would definitely be in the style of remake 2, that's not going to be hard to do in this engine. I don't think newer fans dislike a slow pace, it's the fixed camera and the old style of it, I want to play Code Veronica but I'm not because the game looks unappealing to me but I would love to play a remake like 2. I think people just don't want the game to be "ruined" but the original doesn't get deleted, if you don't like it just say it sucks and play the 2002 remake.
cool video, I love RE, you on Discord?
Yes but barely use it lol
Great video my friend I have subscribed
Thank you so much!
Thank you for making this, I'm glad I stumbled upon this. I unfortunately didn't get to go into the game blind, but even so, the ending still hit me like a train. The whole game feels so heavy in retrospect, despite feeling so bright and happy at the start of things. They did such a good job of capturing that crippling nostalgia that you mentioned. I'm glad I got to play this game for the first time with the remake and I feel like it's only going to mean more to me as I age. Again, you did a great job capturing all of that in this video, it was really, really well done
Thank you so much!
Beautiful...
Thanks for sharing and being so open and vulnerable about your loss. You honour your father with that courage and the insights you shed both on the game and your own experience.
Majora's Mask is my favorite video of all time. I enjoy all content pertaining to the topic. Great Video! Stay positive and strong, and be blessed.
underatted
I also noticed the similarities between Zelda 1 and 2 and Botw and Totk. I would personally love to have something similar to alttp again also because I prefer the classic Zelda formula. An open world game with a linear story would be a good compromise I think
visiting this video again after a few months. grief has payed me a visit. now this video and Majora’s Mask mean more to me than ever before. thank you so much for this.
I’m sorry for your loss.
I’m going to play majora’s mask after I finish ocarina of time, I am currently saving the last Carpenter at the Gerudo fortress And then I’m off to the spirit Temple I think, it’s my first time playing this game as an adult, still have no idea how my older brother Beat the whole game without RUclips or Internet think he may have had the official Zelda OoT strategy guide but that’s it. No internet walkthroughs back in 1999 😂
Us who beat Ocarina and Majora at release day the same for those who beat the 2D Zelda’s without help; those are so hard (especially the original and Link’s Awakening)!
100% PURE BANGER, GG BRO
It's true. When I first discovered the depths they actually scared me so much. The immense darkness of everything was so unsettling. For the first while I literally would avoid going into the depths cause I would get anxiety exploring down there. Wasn't until I finally sucked in my fear and fought the lynels in the colosseum that I finally got over my fear of the depths. That fight alone gave me way more confidence to explore more of this game
when i was playing i definitely started out throwing out constant light seeds. but maybe half way into my game play i realized i wasnt using them as much and was much more confidant running around in the darkness. it was a very satisfying feeling.
Same here. It was cool to have a better sense of the area in the darkness and the gloom is so bright there’s no mistepping in it. Of course getting the miner gear helps too.
bro didn't even mention gloom hands
Yeah just showed them. I guess I felt that’s a surprise I didn’t want to spoil lol
There are some absolutely chilling moments in the depths, like that one chasm that drops you onto a Frox with no light roots anywhere close, or exploring the Hebra depths and throwing a light-root only to see the shadow of a Colgera cast below. Seeing one of the three elemental dragons glowing in the darkness was pretty cool too though. More than any other Zelda game, I feel like this one really makes you embody that Courage that Link is supposed to represent, and the Depths plays a big part in that.
So true. That courage is brought to another level here
Definitely watched this thinking you had at least 250k subscribers, nicely done! I went to read through the comments only to be shocked that their were only 2. I love the narration style and story telling 👌🏻
Thank you so much!
You eloquently said what I was feeling through out my first play through of this game. A common remark I made with friends who were also playing: "I was scared of this as a kid and ___ triggered me". Initially it was the depths. That unknown feeling. Like being under the well in OOT for the first time. The confusion of the being in another world like Link to the Past. Combined with redesigns of old monsters striking a new fear in me all over again. (Like the Gibdos.) I wanted to continue Link's journey, but I couldn't if I allowed my fear to hold me back. Like you, I also waited to explore the depths until I gained more hearts and experience to face those fears. I enjoyed every moment that TOTK gave me. Especially feeling like a kid. A kid who was scared, but determined to face my fears with a game I love. I never imagined I'd feel that again.
I like that you mentioned under the well from OOT because when it comes to Zelda games that really is the one that had me feel any sort of fearful unease. Same with shadow temple and forest temple to a lesser extent but mostly just because the wall masters always creeped me out a ton.
I subscribed to you Vegas bro.
Thanks man
Majora's Mask is integral to my development of being a true person, who can smile with tears, who can love through the pain, who can value life through the loss, and remember when all seems forgotten. It helped me grieve myself, grieve life, even grieve death itself. I understood that even though the big rock we all spin on doesn't care about me, I do. And I understand each person is their own just like me. Yes, each person's story is their own individual survival story, yet we are all like that. I can acknowledge and regard each life as sacred, that even though I may not care about that other person halfway across the world who I don't even know about... they are their own, just like I am. So I will respect their life, honor their life, and love their life. This extends to all things as well that are living. I once was numb, and I felt that loss can kill you inside where you have no regard for life, no respect, no honor, and no value for it, you're just blank. Yet by facing it head on as if I was having a conversation with life, just like Majora's Mask feels like a large conversation in the same way, I learned to love my life, and then by extension all life. I feel like you'll either become so empty there's nothing inside you that you're dead inside, you're so bitter that you die inside, or you love so much that it kills you inside. Some of the worst trauma, can even make the hardest, bitter, vain, numb, apathetic, dehumanized person, turn into one who understands what really matters, who loves, and appreciates all of the small things while accepting all the bad things. This is why I use the phrase "to smile with tears". To me that captures the somber feeling quite well. Beyond that I started questioning philosophy, could there be a hope? And what does the nature of that hope have to look like for us here in the real world? After 8 years since the passing of my friend when we were teenagers to cancer, I currently and humbly considered it daily all the time. I'm still confused on some things, but for us to persist after death, or come alive again, we'd need some external force that has will and authority over life and matter to allow you to still be you, even after you've ended your journey here. The reason is because a soul would need a type of "artificial intelligence" to know what should be living and what shouldn't be, that is also separate from the material universe and not bound by it, yet also compatible with it so it can bind with your body. Some people get offended by that, yet why would you? This "God" would be the thing that overrides our current condition, and that would be a good thing. After applying more philosophy, the only way God can be rendered as "morally good" despite this mournful world we live in is that the twisted world we live in is somehow our faults. If that's true, then that means God this whole time wanted everything to be well, and still wants it that way, to be eternal and eternally sustained, where each life and every thing treats every other life and every other thing rightly, where there is no wrongdoing. We of course do wrong so one could imagine that God wouldn't want to associate with that. If he really is our source of life, and if he respects our free will, and if we are in charge of the whole earth, that means despite if God wanting us to be well forever, he'd respect our free will, which is us separating from him, the source of our life. It makes sense that death would then follow for all of us. And if we are in charge of the whole earth, then the whole earth would be affected also by that separation. The question is, then, why do we exist at all now if death is considered necessary by God? Because maybe he'll actually do something about it. And the only way to do that is if he himself becomes human and bears the consequences of humanity, overturning our wrongdoing that caused this to begin with, restoring not just us but all living things that have ever lived. I couldn't believe my mind. We have that. It's the Jesus story. So I looked further and although I don't really know anything, I am a little more hopeful that this "God" might really be the case. Because life how it currently is, is completely compatible with the "Jesus class type of story thing". I've been interrogating that for 7 years now, and it so far, keeps checking out to every objection I give it. I am still asking questions, cuz I want to see my friend again. And because I don't really know much, I keep questioning. But it's intriguing that there might actually be a real hope. We won't know for certain until the end. And I am okay waiting for then, because Majora's Mask has taught me calm acceptance, not rash hastiness. I do have life, and that is beautiful. So I live it. That was the hardest decision I've made in my life, but it's one I'm okay with as I smile with tears. Thank you for making this. I appreciate you. Be well okay. And I hope one day I can meet you too, as well as everyone else. Tah tah for now
Smiling with tears is what happens when I wake up from a dream that my father was in. I’m sad to wake and remember he’s not here anymore but happy I got another chance to see him even if it’s just in a dream. Thank you for sharing!
