Box X! BOX X!

Yes I remember when I would have to practically scream at my Kinect to get it to work 😂 I SWEAR it was deaf
“XBOX! X… BOX! EEEEEEEEEEXXXXBOOOOOOOOOOOXXX!!!… KINECT! WHY WON’T YOU LISTEN TO ME DAMNIT!!!!”
Omg the memories 🤣 thanks Dan for digging up the nostalgia thats usually buried deep within my brain!!
> apparently in a 3x3m closet
> low lighting
> obstructions
A kinect developer is probably crying somewhere
> Wearing black clothing in front of a black background
And beige pants to match the wall even better
I mean Kinect Developers probably only accounted for suburban middle class homes lol, our house was the same, we didn’t have much room for ours so it barely worked
> wearing hard to squat down pants to actually go low and jump
i love how it thinks the microphone is his arm or leg sometimes
"Why isn't it jumping"
He said while wearing his special purpose cammo for this room in particular, which, generosity, is about as long as he is tall, with an extra arm in front of him, while also improperly doing every move.
As a software developer that work with kinect and kinect like cameras... I cried seeing him wear black with black in de background. The sensors work by projecting infrared light and then looking at how that light bounces back. Black absorbs the infrared light making it an endless void for the sensor.
I swear nobody who calls the thing crap even researches how it actually works and that they may be causing it to have more problems. Like it's very limited and devs definitely didn't understand how to best use the tech outside of maybe the two launch games, but it's better then people give it credit, people use it for vr programs and it works well enough from what I've heard.
Yeah i'm lead developer on an interactive wall system, basically a big 4 meter by 3 meter interactive projection, kids can throw balls and hit targets while playing educational content. I build the prototype with the Kinect V2 (the Xbox one version), its really good. The Kinect V2 was a big boon for interactive systems in healthcare, education, etc. The Xbox shipping with Kinect V2 may have gotten you a shitty periphery but it enabled a host products that gave joy to the elderly and those with mental disabilities.
The only people doing anything like the kinectV2 and at their price point is Orbbec, random Chinese company, good lads. It has kept us and similar companies going.
@@valen9835 Yeah, a Kinect is actually the cheapest way to get full body tracking in VR right now.
@@maddizzle1744 Really? I still have one at home, now I only need a VR headset...
Exactly, was annoyed from the beginning.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of RTGame The Drift King? I thought not. It’s not a story RUclips would tell you.
Execute order yoinky sploinky
Given how aggressive they’ve been in demonetizing his videos, there’s some real honest truth to that
How are you everywhere
@LadybugSheep
Then it'd be a double negative.. Whenever I see comments like this, I always need to ask myself whether they've passed basic English. If they haven't, they shouldn't be correcting other people's grammar. If they have, then they wouldn't make mistakes like this.
@@LadybugSheep stop trying to correct a perfectly fine sentence with a answer that is still grammatically wrong
Dan... your pants are blending into the wall and your shirt into the panels, the kinect is bound to struggle lmao
Ikr! It was driving me nuts!
The mic doesn’t help either
I was thinking this moments into the video
The Kinect doesn't see color. It uses an IR grid camera to determine distance to objects.
@@KingofJ95 it definitely saw colour when I used to play with it. The colour of my clothes, the lighting and the background 100% affected how well it worked. Black clothes made it work terribly and paler clothes helped it chug along. Better lighting also helped. From what i saw just looking through kinect options it tracked my legs, body, arms, and head and it seemed to do all of that by what everything looked like. I know nothing about the technical side but i spent tens, if not hundreds of hours playing with that thing, so I feel like i might know a bit.
dan claiming that he's been bending his knees the whole time while jumping, when every single time he's done it he's kept one leg perfectly straight because he's afraid of falling
Yeah, looks like he is barely bending his legs when he is jumping except a few times here and there.
You gotta understand, guys. Dan is 28. He's lucky he can even still jump.
Someone get this man a cane
@@xxhobocatxx286928 is the new 40 😭
@@sefy5082just make him a cane that looks like a lightsaber then maybe he’d use it
The problem with the Kinect wasn't that it didn't work. The problem was that it wasn't fun. In this case, its pure user error. Dan is dresses exactly like his wall, down to the cream coloured pants, and has a third arm holding his mic for him. I've seen the debug mode for the Kinect, and I can assure you it doesn't just track the hands. It tracks the entire body. But this is all in the visible spectrum, so of course it's going to get confused when Dan looks like Ninja Hattori blending into a wall.
Replying to this comment to give it a signal boost.
In a way it has similar issues that VR and pretty much any devise relying on human motion to control the game. Videogames inherently are a way to interact with virtual worlds in a limited way. That's why controllers and keyboard are nice. You have only so many buttons to press and game designers get to relax with not having to account for inifnite many ways to control your character. Then you have this. Essentially infinite many ways to control the game but the game is programmed to do only so many things and if you don't do things close to perfect, or like Dan did, unintentionally sabotage the camera, it just doesn't work.
And that's the problem, how is the average Joe supposed to know all that?
@@CuestrupasterI mean I do agree it's reasonable to not realise the issue immediately and to blame the technology but if you take your surroundings into consideration it's also pretty obvious dressing like your wall is not a smart way to play with a motion capturing device
@@Cuestrupaster I'd figure it'd be part of some manual for using the Kinect just as a safety measure.
It’s a tragedy that “I’m Han Solo” didn’t play at the end of Solo.
I need to get a copy of the movie to edit that in now
Allow me to erm akshually🤓 here, the lyrics say he’s free from the carbon and thus it would be foolish to reference him at the end given that he was already out of the carbon you fool
It doesn't help that he doesn't have enough space to move back like the Kinect wants.
And that he's cosplaying as the wall behind him... and his mic is in the way.
There's a special lens attachment he could have bought that reduces the distance needed, I used to have one.
From what I've heard, the depth sensing means that the wall cosplay wouldn't be much of an issue if he were able to play at the optimal distance. Well, unless it also uses some RGB inference.
@@MrSonny6155 I don't know how it works but I remember as a kid you could go into a mode that would show you the skeleton it draws to track you. I had the original version
In this Video, the Drift King successfully Assassinates Grandmaster Yoda of the Jedi Order in a Traffic "Accident".
The cover story was a tragic accident involving ketamine and a Honda Civic
as hes the drift king he could have easily not let that traffic 'accident' happen, it has to have been planned
RT went to alot of effort hiring actual xbox kinect engineers to help develope the worlds worst kinect set up, complete with obstructions, no space for movement, and perfect camoflage with the wall to make it extra difficult for the kinect to track his movements
RT: Why won't the camera detect me?
Also RT: Stands in front of a Black and White Background while wearing a Black and White Outfit
Yoda, watching RT the Twi’lek lady get beaned on the head for the fiftieth time by a log pendulum after flailing wildly trying to jump for 30 seconds straight:
Retire, I should. Not worth it, this job is.
Yoda was actively laughing at you. He gained enjoyment from watching you suffer. He ain't retiring any time soon
The memories this game brings, the impossible driving, janky jumping, and 10 minute loading screens. I loved every second of it
Same. Playing this game with my best friend is one of my favourite childhood memories
It was magic. So much nostalgia
sonic the hedgehog(2006)
Rancor Rampage getting all of the different versions was the best!!
I have a theory that kinect games had long loading screens on purpose so that people would sit down plenty while playing and not like pass out from exertion
"We've got a bad batch."
STAR WARS: THE BAD BATCH
I laughed so hard after he said that
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that
well done you got the joke
@@zts3902 I don't think RT meant to make this joke
"Well, I thought it was obvious."
This was the last piece of Star Wars media before it was sold to Disney. George Lucas knew he peaked here.
The Drift King speach as the Star Wars text crawl is not something I knew I needed this much
Edit: Dan is a genius for wearing a black shirt, with a black microphone stand infront of him and black hexagons on the wall behind him
not to mention standing way to close to the camera
@@LAE01-l3e or the khaki pants in front of an eggshell wall
@@GTAmaniac1 in a low-light environment to boot!
In college they called Dan the Drift King, not the Genius King
@@LAE01-l3e Way too close? Considering he was hitting his ass against the door handle, how was he supposed to stand further away?
RTGame’s lack of ability to bend his knees when he jumps is a defining trait
I love Chloe’s scrolling text edit
That part was so good 👏
Very clever 😁
Everyone’s pointing out the color, but not as many people are pointing out that the wall behind him is where he’s supposed to be within the intended play area. He’s just barely playing within a distance that the Kinect will allow him to.
I've used a kinect at that line of it barely being far enough and I never had tracking issues like not being able to jump, he does jump very strangely but the kinect is based off colour and not just the hands
They used to call him the Jump King back at the Jedi Academy.
Now this is a video that has me feeling like a star - you can't stop the shine. I'm really loving cloud city, my head's in the sky.
I’m Solo, I’m Han Solo, I’m Han Solo, I’m Han Solo, Solo
you're han solo.
Yeah, I'm feelin' good tonight
Finally feelin' free and it feels so right, oh
I don't know how relevant it is that this genius of a man, who owns a green screen, dressed up in perfect camouflage for this kinect video
I knew a guy who said that he worked on the pod racing portion of this game. From his account, at one point development it was actually fun.
Unfortunately, there was a hefty learning curve and there was a legitimate concern that casual players wouldn't understand the mechanics so the dev team was forced to simplify the game
_I'M FEELIN' LIKE A STAR, YOU CAN'T STOP MY SHINE-_
_I'M LOVIN CLOUD CITY, MY HEAD'S IN THE SKY_
_I'M SOLO, I'M HAN SOLO_
props to the game they did manage to portray yodas personality quite well, people always seem to forget he was rather laidback and joked around alot.
That old frog refused to die purely so he could keep chucking rocks at teenagers and laugh when they get bowled over. King
Everyone's saying that the problem was his clothes and the room and all that... but the dance game picked him up almost perfectly in the same conditions
Yep. They seem to forget that Kinect was notorious for not recognizing movement and being just bad to use. The dancing game used as basis here is pretty much the only thing I ever heard players actually praise. Also a lot of people talk about colours when I'm pretty sure that's not what Kinect uses for seeing motion, meaning they would have set it up "incorrectly" too.
@@NukkuiskoHyvinVaiPoisblack is basically the only color that you should NOT wear since it absorbs all light instead of reflecting it back to the IR sensor
the dance game probably mainly uses the hands, kinect as a whole and especially this game doesn't just use hands though
14:26 Sorry, Xbox doesn't recognize "Irishman in pain" as a dialect
"The Force works better if it's a choke hold." - Darth RT
daRTh drift king
I don’t know what I was expecting when Dan said that he was going to be branching out the games he played this year, but I do know that I’m loving it
Yoda: Dash quickly to avoid the logs
* fucking speeds through them like it was nobody’s business *
And in today's video, RTGame is surprised Kinect is struggling to detect him, while wearing actual camouflage.
Finally, RT chooses to play a *good* videogame.
The Han Solo dance-along 😭
It was great!? Why you crying lol 😂 it’s the best thing in the game IMO XD
Qui-Gon Derulo could never~ 😭
Part of me wishes you use greeen screen on all this type of videos for:
1. I imagine the kinect's cam would better read your moves if you weren't blending in a background.
2. You would give your community more meme material ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Xbox when RT mispronounces Ara Barotta: 😁
Xbox when RT says Advanced Jedi Knight: 😠
13:01 RT jumping in the air and giggling with deranged glee like a cartoon villain
and then jumping again and almost throwing up
I really want RT to give this another shot in, like, a human living room with colored clothes on a background that doesn't match them and with nothing between him and the Kinect lol. The Star Wars Kinect game is honestly solid and does work.
Same
6:27 "Master Yoda, I appreciate you refraining from grabbing ahold of my breasts and hover-handing but you really do need to hold on to me or else you'll fly off the speeder."
So... who's gonna tell him, that there is a Fable kinect game - Fable: the Journey?
I played the hell out of it when I was younger... good times :>
Omg I spent hours playing this game as a kid. I had so much fun throwing bolts, and if I remember it was the first game I ever completed
Man I remember the ads for this back in the day were everywhere. They definitely wanted this to be the game people remembered. And they did, but not for the reasons they thought they would.
Him screaming at his xbox reminds so much of “hello computer” from the IT Crowd
He drifts so hard that the game couldn't detect him in this dimension at the start of the video
RT wearing cameo to blend into the wall and then being confused why the Kinect can’t find him is what I’ve come to expect of the drift king
I loved how RT didn’t call the Clone Wars actors bad impersonators, like everyone else does.
"Say Beginner or Advanced"
*"ADVANCED JEDI KNIGHT"*
0:13 Dans legs connecting with C3P0s feet making him look stubby is what i need
Dan refusing to either hang a sheet up on the wall or changing his clothes to a different color def hurt me a bit lmao
Some impeccable swordplay on display here, RT moves his limbs so fluidly it's almost like he doesn't even possess any bones.
"Above-Average Man" = Not the Worst Superhero in the MCU
I love how RT was able to get the Kinect to recognize voice commands just fine but it took JonTron like ten tries with his copy of the game
EHCKS BAHKS
and then it stopped recognizing his voice again anyways.
This game was genuinely my childhood. I would literally get into physical altercations with my sister when she wouldn’t play properly and my parents had to ban me from playing multiple times due to me playing too much
No matter what critics say, that alone probably makes this game a success
What next, kinect adventures?
Kinect animals.
Yes please
Hopefully PowerUp Heroes, that was my childhood!
Kinectimals
Oh please 😂
I love that they added Yoda Giggling at Your Ineptitude to this game
Ah yes, the *one* weakness of the Jedi. Jumping..
Game: “Say CASUAL, ADVANCE, or GO BACK”
Rt: “IDVANSEJEDEYENITE”
God I love accents
The shirt definitely was probably the possible problem here, Dan. But then again it wasn't an issue while dancing. They should have had more jumping in the dance segment.
The dance segment was made exponentially funnier because of how lanky RT is, his long ass arms lmao
*That title crawl should open every Star Wars title Dan does. Stroke of genius, that was.*
Im willing to bet the one main thing everyone remembers this game for is the Solo song
Seeing this game has brought out some long-forgotten memories. I was going through all the game modes until I got to the dance mode and my brother's friends walked in while I was dancing to I'm Han Solo. I kind of wish that had stayed forgotten. Thank you.
He is feared.
He is revered.
He has a complicated relationship with Daisy.
He became a questionable jedi with 2000s tech.
He is THE DRIFT KING.
He is Han Solo, Solo.
3:20 "Bad Batch"
*star wars intro plays again*
"Avoid their fire."
"You could have said that a bit quicker, Yoda."
Did you really need him to tell you to move out of the way of the masses of lasers being shot at you?
if anyone's wondering, im han solo is at 17:43
hearing Yoda speak with urgency is so much more cursed than i ever thought it could be
Now this is the kind of video that gets me feeling like a star, you can't stop my shine.
i'm lovin this channel, my heads in the sky.
I never thought you’d need to be an olympic longjumper to be a jedi, keep jumping dan
i'm solo, i'm han solo, i'm han solo, i'm han solo solo
RT really choose to cosplay as his wall the same stream he used the connect
2:04 omg the dmc drift king crawl is legendary - this has to open up every video or stream for at month
Love how RTs outfit perfectly blends in wit the back ground
Did RTGame not notice he matched the background entirely? His upper torso wearing a black shirt matching the black wall panels, and his piege pants matching the wall itself. Ya know I'm not surprised the Kinetic was struggling to identify him as human.
holy crap dude i remember playing this game as like a 12 year old just trying SO HARD to beat it
I remember being too scared to play the one mini game with the rancor lmao
Now I really want to see RT try a full VR game like Blade & Sorcery, especially with Star Wars (or anime) mods.
How confused everyone else on the battlefield must be seeing who is supposed to be a Jedi Knight continuously try and fail to jump a few feet.
Yoda laughing every time you get KOd by that log is sending me.
Ah yes, the youtube jumping sections.
AKA: Testing RT's lung capacity
The dance part is the best part to come out of the game. Its a bad game but that doesn't stop seeing people and hearing songs from being entertaining.
Dan playing from what I can only surmise is the inside of a wardrobe has made this series quite the experience. lol
This game was my childhood. I remember trying to beat that final vehicle section with my little sister for AGES, and I swear my entire family celebrated when we beat it.
Why do i have the same memory, but it was with my brother
This is a small world
I played this game religiously when I was younger and seeing this on your channel made my spit out my water
I am so glad we are getting more Flawless Masterpiece content, I love the usual RT videos, but these videos make me laugh so much
Genuinely this is one of my favourite childhood games
The game:
"Move back"
RT:
"That sign can't stop me because I can't read!"
The hit detection or health bar must be GENEROUS, even on the harder difficulty. That Twi'lek is just taking super battle droid bolts to the face.
Dan should put a green screen behind him in the Kinect videos so people have green screen clips of him jumping in a million different ways lmao
Man, this game is my literal childhood, but RT, you should really get a bigger room for this kind of games
Dan should have played these Kinect games in from of a green screen
Daniel playing Kinect in a tiny, dim room with a shirt that matches his background is the kind of chaos energy I come here for.
Honestly this game was a huge part of my childhood. Never finished it due to a lack of English understanding but I loved playing it with my brother and my best friends! So fun to see RT play this 💜
I used to play this with my brother before we moved and the Kinect got lost, always a pleasure to just swing your arms wildly and watch the carnage unfold.
Man I remember playing this at a friends house and being stuck at one of the first quests due to it simply not working. Somehow we still had fun for hours, good times
bro's blending into a wall and possibly cover half of kinect's vision by his mic and laughs that kinect is glitching
i'm fairly certain dan's jumping was failing because he didn't put his hands above his head, seeing as thats what it tracked for virtually everything else and the few times it worked he accidently swung them up
He literally camouflaged himself with the wall. Incredible.
The best part of the stream was whenever someone joined stream chat would share if he Han Solo'ed yet
Dan in his light colored pants and black shirt against the light colored wall and black foam: why doesn’t it register???
seeing dan struggle jumping because it can't see all of him is hilarious
