    She's gotta be the most athletic person alive to run through saltwater marsh (that "interesting biome" at 11:30 ) that way. That said, to even see it depicted so accurately is a joy. Also, the grassy slopes are a quite nice and accurate departure from the "all is jungle" approach most representations of tropical landscapes tend to be. This will deserve a full playthrough, for sure.

      To be fair, Tchia's athleticism is only average for a video game protagonist. If she keeps training, she _might_ rival platformer protagonists when she grows up; time will tell.

    2:40: "I would kill for X" is a _much_ more threatening statement from someone who just shot a rifle into the air.
    10:20: That's an unusual sensation for a game to evoke, but it's neat.
    22:10: I hope we get to see what a rock-balancing challenge is.
    30:50: Throwing yourself from trees isn't movement tech I would have thought of, but it _does_ look fun. And it mixes well with the glider.
    45:10: Full speed behind so we can full speed ahead!
    53:00: Looks like a mangrove forest. Also called a mangrove swamp, mangrove thicket, mangrove, or mangal.

    Also, to answer your question around minute 53 or so: those trees with the pipe-looking roots are mangroves, and the shallow water areas with lots of them are mangrove swamps. Mangrove swamps and forests are some of the coolest biomes on earth, in my opinion! Lots of little hidden water shallows where fish and things hide among the tree roots. Super rad.

    I was aware of New Caledonia because I have a pet Crested Gecko, one of the many many gecko species native to that region! (Although my personal little guy was born and bred in the US.) If you get to possess and run around as a crestie in this game, then I am *sold*.

    Whoa, this game looks incredible... Both from the technical and gameplay perspectives but also with the care and consideration they're giving to the cultural source material... Honestly, if they found a way to add in cooperative multiplayer, this game could really capture that feeling not of being a kid, but of what you wished/imagined you could do when you were one!

    I love the little camera changes/mini cutscenes as you do various things (picking fruit, eating a meal, etc.). They give a very cinematic feel, but they're quick enough to not interrupt the flow of what you're doing.

    I think we're seeing the origin of Breath-of-the-Wild-like games. An open world with a gliding mechanic. The cozy atmosphere. A focus on music. The fun traversal mechanics. The raft. Mysterious shrines. There are many similarities.
    I also see similarities with Dinkum in the culture and colors though it plays like a colony simulation with light RPG elements. Beautiful games.

    53:10 As someone mentioned, that's a saltwater marsh, or a mangrove forest, where salt and fresh water mixes together in various levels depending on the tide. They're one of the best shore areas in terms of diversity and protection from storms, waves and the like. Sadly, due to being located right near the shore, they're usually cut down and replaced with "beachfront" properties, despite being a nearly free source of disaster prevention and mitigation. Yay capitalism.

    I like the map idea, you need to find landmarks to orient yourself instead of just a GPS dot that's accurate to the mm. It only works with a big map though which it looks like they have.

    • @argenteus8314
      @argenteus8314 Год назад +2

      Assuming you're not being sarcastic (and that google translated that correctly), calling one language "the most civilized" seems a bit racist (or at least ethnocentric) doesn't it? That inherently implies other languages are _less_ civilized, which hasn't really been an acceptable thing to say about other cultures for some time now. It especially comes across as in poor taste given France's history of colonialism (some of which you can read about in the Wikipedia article for New Caledonia itself) and that the so-called "civilizing mission" was often used to justify this colonialism.
      If you _are_ being sarcastic, I apologize, perhaps it comes across as more clearly sarcastic to someone who actually speaks the language. But I've certainly heard similar opinions expressed seriously.
