I know, right? If they had used the AI announcer to, say, integrate text-to-speech team names or dynamic situation announcing, that would have been acceptable. Instead the used it to avoid paying voice actors.
@@CathodeRayKobold They got AI announcers to avoid paying real voice actors, then decided not to use any of the actual benefits AI announcers could have brought to the game.
Sorry to spoil the fun but that version of "Steamboat Willie" in the Mugen clip (6:54) is NOT the public domain version. The public domain version doesn't wear white gloves.
@@IcyLucario I'm assuming it's the whole voice actor / AI controversy. They used AI voices in the Finals based on voice actors' voices that they paid for and who agreed to have their voices used for AI generation. The problem is mainly ethical for the future, if companies are let alone to do this then in a few years there may not be any more voice actors...
@@IcyLucario yeah like allexio said, mostly just the extensive use of LLM's throughout the game is objectionable, especially to people in the industry. Also the game just kinda seems boring and bad imo
@@HighlightReel Strange question, but have you been thinking any different since you got it? Ever since I got hit with it a few years ago, my mental health seems like it's been on an irreparable decline.
@@lilwyvern4 I am sorry to hear that, I got on paxlovid pretty quick and I only tested negative Thursday or so so long term I am not gonna know, but I also had to get off of medication to do it so it's hard to know right now.
Some people are way too good at The Finals 😅 Meanwhile my clip is where my canister blows me up and after that I jumped off a building right after spawn. Edit: okay but now I've seen the last finals clip lol
I find it fun. In fact the Finals clips were the funniest to me. But I have played the game a bit so if you haven't played it, I can understand why you would be confused.
I no longer have covid, thank you to everyone for your patience with that and the Christmas holiday back to back
Glad you're ok!
I'm glad you're feeling better!
Glad you're feeling better!
You’re amazing and we love you dawg!!
That ending bit with The Finals is amazing, and needs to be integrated into the base game.

Yeah, when I heard it uses AI my thoughts were: "Oh sick, dynamic announcers? Can we choose our own team names? That's so cool."
Nope.

I felt the terror from Sonic being just behind them in Lethal Company even though I wasn't even playing, dang
First Highlight Reel of the year. Hope for more great ones this year!
Glad you made it out! What a good way to start the day.
It was a good start of the day too Mecha.

6:52 to skip The Finals
Here’s the thing: I totally understand and respect that opinion. I wish I didn’t like parts of this game but the physics in it are real good.
@@HighlightReel I just wish the developers weren't the way they are
Hmm? What did I miss about The Finals?

i insist, the heavy in the finals is broken af
The light with cloaking is annoying as well. A lot of things need to be balanced
yeah the cloaking too, but at least the light can be killed with like 2 bullets lol@@UnrelatedNonsense
Reminds me of the good old days in Bad company 2.
If you can't take the object and it's in a building, level the whole building.
Problem solved.
8:37 ok it’s time to call in the Grey Knights that shotgun is a demonic artefact.
The Lethal Company Sanic clip is one of the best clips I've seen on this channel
Edit: never mind, the exploding skeleton cat was even better
9:53 now THIS is the spirit of Christmas.
Happy New Year!
Bracken: "Hey guys, what's crackalackin, did you know in terms of..."
Coilhead: [*Pushes up glasses*] "Well ackchyually..."
2:56 is basically every old horror movie from the villain's perspective.
The cat bomb took me out too 😂😂😂😂
I didn't know sanic could be so terrifying
The finals is like a fake game shown on a movie or something. I'm convinced everyone that plays it doesn't enjoy it.
Welcome back, Highlight Reel. You have been missed. 🎉
Thank you I had Covid but I’m back
@@HighlightReel That sucks

I have literally never heard of The Finals before today.
Glad to see my clip at 9:35, this game is very broken at times haha
Hell yeah happy to feature
Happy New Year! Biig Cartoon Cat vibes at 10:51, fairly terrifying. Did not expect the ending of that last clip, either.
thank you for the photosensitivity warning!
13:41 eyyyy a Voices of the Void bit.
Happy New Year, everyone!
That guy needs to activate his window haha
The finals ai announcers need to be add in game
Thanks for reminding me of the awesome fighting emulator Mugen. Memories from 20 years ago coming back!
Thanks for including my clip! I always get my man 2:52
Happy to feature you!!
11:24 is "How do you kill it?"
thanks for including me at 1:52
Great content. Especially the last few videos.
How do you do this big swing with the sledgehammer? I have to hit the wall like four times to break it.
Right Click / Alt-Fire
Looking forward to seeing a Cuphead -knockoff- DLC based on Steamboat Willie next

06:11 pro at work
Seeing MUGEN in 2024 warms my heart
yeah the finals clips made me not want to play it
Anyone else find The Finals impossible to watch? It’s just so incoherent.
I find it fun. In fact the Finals clips were the funniest to me. But I have played the game a bit so if you haven't played it, I can understand why you would be confused.
I find them much more coherent than Valorant/Overwatch/Apex Legends clips
What is with all the butthurt at Finals? It's meh but hardly the worst ever
Finals is cringe
