I'm really amazed. 3 great games in 1 week. Chernobylite, Ascent and Grime. How rare especially since they are priced right. Not AAA titles but it goes to show there are good games for everyone at every budget. I never thought I'd enjoy these games as much as I am.
I've been playing this game on Stadia because it's included with the Pro subscription, it feels really good, I've beat the first boss and I'll definitely carry on playing.
I normally don't enjoy Soulslikes, but I feel Grime has made enough quality of life improvements to the genre, and I'm really digging it. For example, there's almost always a shortcut you can open between a major boss and a save point, so there's no need to run through 20 minutes of normal enemies just to make another attempt at the boss. Also, not having to do a corpse run to recover your mass is definitely nice, and allows you to stretch into unexplored dangerous territory more readily. You still feel the tension of being in over your head, far from safety, and low on health and all that... but I actually go into these dangerous environments MORE readily knowing I won't lose a huge cache of currency if I die. Furthermore, the slow, methodical rhythm of combat simply feels better in a 2D environment imo. There's no janky camera to fight with, the attacks and hitboxes are very readable, etc. The video compares Grime to Hollow knight and Ori, and as examples of great Metroidvanias I think that's fair... but Grime does NOT have those game's combat rhythms at all. Those games are based heavily on agility, and combat is very fast with animation cancelling, unlimited dashing, etc. Grime locks you into slow animations, all your combat abilities are attached to a stamina bar, and it has fewer opportunities for healing. In that sense, combat feels extremely different in Grime.
I completely agree. I'd compare it more tô blasphemous than to Ori or HK, seeing how in this game you should treat every enemy as a little game of parrying and attacking
A few tips 1 keep swinging breakable walls make a different sound there are way more than you can see 2 once you get a weapon go back to the very beginning there a hidden chamber with 3000 mass but it's guarded by 2 really tough enemies so be careful
I swear to god, where are all these games coming from?? Death's Door, The Ascent, Eldest Souls, and now this one. I never heard a whiff about these games before release and now I feel like I'm tripping over all of these good games that came outta nowhere!
Indie games bro, everyone should pay more atention to them, there is a lot of good stuff coming out every month besides AAA games. There are also many great youtube channels strictly dedicated to indies games, like Get Indie Gaming, ClemmyGames etc
@@arthurgadelha9430 See, I follow those channels, but I didn't see them mentioned there either! Maybe I've only been watching the occasional vid by them, but I've seen a few "Top Upcoming Indies" from there channels and I feel like all the games I mentioned weren't on there. Oh well, I'm not complaining. If anything, it's nice to be surprised by an awesome game that comes outta nowhere. Takes me back to the good old days where you'd just walk into the video store and BAM, a new game that looks awesome was just sitting there on the shelf.
What I like the most about the gameranx community is that it's generally pretty chill. I go to other channels who are more in depth about some genres and cover gaming news and stuff because the content is good, but I don't really go to the comments because they royally suck. Most of the times the comments here are more relaxed. They have differing opinions as with everywhere on the internet but they don't end up so far down two roads that they totally despise the other camp and that's refreshing.
Metroidvania's are Indie Dev's Favorite genre to create as far as I've seen in the last few Years. Monster Boy & The Cursed Kingdom, both Ori Games, and Shantae are some really great ones that are short but sweet.
@@janky477 Rather than favorite, it's just the ones that gets a lot of attention. There's even still FMV games being released by indie devs nowadays. But of course, they aren't as popular.
Have you played Celeste then, it's a platform focused on tight movement and timing since there's so many damn spikes. I didn't buy it because I know I'm going to rage after 5 minutes 😅
Been a playtester for the game, as well as a student in Tiltan college, where the game was made, studying video game art design. I really like the art and atmosphere, the world is incredible. And I finished it enough times to say that I like that genre of games, despite never playing souls-like before. The team behind the game are cool people, they worked on this game for years! It has been a pleasure to have a small role in this project!
Started playing this game yesterday and love it. Of course it is hard, especially bosses, but if you are a fast learner then it is not a problem to remember all the moves and how to counter them.
@@The.Nasty. The game is free on Stadia for new subscribers, you can play it on the very same browser you are using to watch this RUclips video... they had also founded the development of Grime through their Stadia Makers program. It's not about the platform, Stadia works great for anyone with a decent internet connection though, it's about good games availability. And Stadia nailed it here!
This looks right up my alley. I LOVE metroidvania games and dark souls games... oh and games with weird quirky worlds. So I think I'm gonna be playing this before long.
Another 2d sidescroller that's big on parry mechanics is Eastern Exorcist. That game is basically a 2D Sekiro: Chinese mythology edition. Grime is pretty awesome, so far.
"Welcome to another episode of Before You Buy, the show where-" *record rips* "...The show that everyone watches immediately after they've purchased the featured game." 🤣
Gameranx: And we're back with another episode of Before You Buy.... Me: Yay! An new game released! Literally the only way I keep up to date on new releases.
This one went below my radar, and I'm very happy to have found it. Not picked a system to play it on yet, but I've read that it's unplayable on last gen consoles due to frame drops and frame pacing issues, lags and screen tearing. That sucks, but is somewhat expected from a indie game made in Unity.
I love Grime, so much so that I willingly played it on a computer that couldn´t handle the game and lagged so much it took me several dozen tries to defeat a boss. Now the DLC is out, and free if you already own Grime, and I started a new safe file to do it all over again, and loving it even more. It's worth full price, if you need to have it cheaper it is on sale for another two days on steam. I paid the same amount I paid for Hollow Knight and both of them are in my top 5 games of all time. So give it a try if you like Metroidvanias with some great icky designs and hefty gameplay.
@@melxb I played a bit on my backbone via Stadia and I have to say it’s better on a bigger display. There’s a lot of text and attributes about your inventory which are tough to perceive clearly on a small display
Looks like something I'll definitely buy should it come to a console. Now to sit back and wait for the guy who commented "get it on Stadia" to every console comment to visit mine.
Thank you for this, and thank you Falcon for your usually insightful perspective. I had no idea that this is the game I wanted, no, needed for a while now. I just picked it up on Stadia, but I think it will be perfect for the steam deck.
I’m probably halfway through this game so far (I think). Got it for free on Epic about a month go. SO glad I’m trying it out! Absolutely amazing game, especially if you love Souls & Metroid style games. The music is beautiful & the atmosphere is unnerving. The combat is very fluid. Boss fights are hard, but fair. Very rewarding when you unlock new abilities. Honestly 9/10 rating only because the story is a little hard to understand
@@shervintofighi9891I don’t have a capable desktop. I did preorder a steam deck though so I can eventually get in on all the great Indy’s and metroidvanias I’ve been missing that don’t get ported to one of the consoles. The money I just spent on ps5 and series x I could of just bought a nice desktop but I’m kinda scared. I’m so out of the loop with pc’s. I haven’t gamed on a pc since high school playing Diablo in the mid to late 90’s. Whatever year that was lol. I’m old. So I’m kinda scared to jump into buying a pc as I’m so out of the loop. That’s why I’m super super excited for the steam deck. It’s like a bridge between console gaming and pc gaming. Perfect for me. By the way this game is great. I’m like a hour in tops but It’s easy to tell a lot of effort went into every aspect of this game.
@@hemme100 I am, started it about an hour ago. Just got to the second surrogate. Died a few times on the way before hitting the second surrogate. They did a really good job with this.
Just beat this game. Tbh, it's a 7.5/10 It's good but it's not great, and I had quite a few complaints by the end and I LOVE metroidvanias so I would say if your not a huge fan, it's probably more of a 6/10. My biggest complaint: you don't get fast travel until basically the very end of the game but get this, if you beat the 2nd or 3rd boss without doing a quest and also finding some incredibly hidden areas, you will straight up miss content. An optional boss disappears along with some item/items from a quest. And exploring before you get fast travel is TEDIOUS, so you probably won't go back to see that you missed until it's too late. Makes absolutely 0 sense. Also, I went strength stat and regretted it the entire game. Literally 90% of the weapons are dexterity. And big slow weapons are just a liability.. they leave you open to attack for too long and costs way too much stamina to use.
It was the only 2D Souls-Like game I could play, I've tried to play the much lauded Salt & Sanctuary style games before but it just didn't draw me in. As for Grime, I couldn't even play the game because of exploring, Souls game should be like this. I think it drives you to explore. I can say that I am halfway through the game yet, everything is very good.
If I was to proclaim that I was first, my dignity, my love, friendship would all be in vein. Working so hard to be the first view on a Gameranx video must be savoured and done respectfully. The people who speak loud will be known as the first, but in reality are doing it for nothing. They need to seek the approval of others so that they seal the fact that the were first in history. In reality the silent firsts are the most honourable and respectful human on earth.
Also before you buy:
Soundtrack is by Alex Roe aka Dark Souls piano guy whose so good the actual composer for Dark Souls actually collabed with him
That’s actually so awesome!!! I thought the music sounded very Souls-like

I have been thinking this for weeks and I can't believe you're the first person I've seen say it.
I'd hope the visual quality would be a little better..
I've been playing this game on Stadia because it's included with the Pro subscription, it feels really good, I've beat the first boss and I'll definitely carry on playing.

Those games are based heavily on agility, and combat is very fast with animation cancelling, unlimited dashing, etc. Grime locks you into slow animations, all your combat abilities are attached to a stamina bar, and it has fewer opportunities for healing. In that sense, combat feels extremely different in Grime.
Wait what's the shortcut?
@@averageuser9366 Theres A Lot Of Shortcuts, Depends On What Boss Ur Talking About
The combat definitely took me a lot of getting used to as i'm way more used to agile characters
I completely agree. I'd compare it more tô blasphemous than to Ori or HK, seeing how in this game you should treat every enemy as a little game of parrying and attacking
A few tips 1 keep swinging breakable walls make a different sound there are way more than you can see 2 once you get a weapon go back to the very beginning there a hidden chamber with 3000 mass but it's guarded by 2 really tough enemies so be careful
