    This was my mom's favorite PS1 game. I'm currently streaming it in her honor. This game was a huge part of my childhood, and I remember every time I wanted to play it when the PS1 was in the living room, my mom really wanted to play the game instead lol. It's heart-warming to see someone make a full documentary on the game. This is very appreciated as a huge fan of the game. So many neat things I never knew about the game! Every bit of exposure to this gem makes me happy :D

    only long years after playing the 1998 original did I realize that Dan's story is actually very sad as he was granted life only for a brief moment, only to return back to death once he restored mortals' world in which he could never continue to exist.

    I'm 35 years old and I still love the hell out of this game. This was my all time favorite PlayStation game, with my second favorite being Wild 9. Obviously I loved the stylistic off-beat games. I'd love a doc like this for Wild 9 if there's anything out there to find about it. It's so damn weird, I'm sure there has to be a story there.

    • @ReliableRhubarb
      @ReliableRhubarb  Год назад +4

      I've added Wild 9 to my list, though I have no idea when I'll get around to covering it as I've got a bunch of other documentaries I want to get done first.
      Perhaps I could do a mini documentary series for games like this that are more obscure/have little known about their development, or some kind of compilation of multiple obscure titles in one documentary. Either way, it's on my list so I'll figure something out when I get to it.

    I dunno how much I like the original pitch of MediEvil 3, but the additions of middle eastern elements like the anubis stone and a djini would have made far more sense in that than having it in a remake of the first game. Also Dan having to fight for his own death happening sounds really fun. It's weird how there hasn't been done more with such a beloved franchise.

    Oh man, I hated that story pitch for Medievil 3. The genie was annoying enough in the PSP remake and it's a real shame that he came from the M3 pitch. I can honestly say that I'm very glad that never became the third entry. Regrettably it _did_ become a digital comic bonus with the PS4 version.
    The PSP remake I wasn't a huge fan of but while the puerile new direction was very disappointing the fully orchestrated OST was absolutely gorgeous.
    The PS4 remake was very high quality with a few misses here and there but *so* much better than the PSP version overall and the one feature that _every_ remake of a much older game should have (but no others that I'm aware of actually do) - it included the original game as a bonus that you could play and compare.

    If only they made a third game instead of a whole reboot ( being resurrection just not to be confused ) allow me to tell how it should’ve gone: the game starts telling the story of the second game and how the past altered Daniel fought and defeated the Palethorn beast cutting the stomach to release Kia and she noticed a light it was the Anubis stone she then pulled a strange looking amulet she put the Anubis stone in it and she went to the Time Machine and vanished after that Lupo was first seen playing with Daniel’s head and as soon as that happens Kia or Kiot appeared this time younger and not as a mummy and along with her was Zarok young as the girl and they took quick work of Daniel and the dog sending them into the era of dinosaurs then Al Zalam telling the two of the bad news of how Zarok and Kiot ruled all of time thanks to the god stone ( I decided to make it the god stone to give it more power to rule time and space a little twist that I like ) after that Daniel sighed with Lupo looking confused then Daniel pulled out his head and threw it so Lupo would catch it after a few raptors, triceratops, pterodactyls Kiot’s soldiers looking for Zalam because he stole something of Kiot like breaking the god stone into four pieces scattered in time they met the first boss of the game Zarok taming a mess of a dinosaur ( reference to the tyrannosaurus wrecks which this one is from the past ) after the trio defeat it drowning him in tar they go on an adventure in time with one gargoyle head, the professor, Winston and the heroes from the hall of heroes all band up together and fight the couple of evil.

    Well you can't use the guide because the mechanic of attacking while blocking has been removed, and enemies have become much faster and will always land a blow before your strike. I can make a flawless run through the ant caves in the original. In the new one, I'd be surprised if I don't die in the first chamber. Precisely because I can't block and swing...

    Just another game in the long line of titles that were needlessly changed and tinkered with, with the behest of the original creators that truly understand why the Games are so beloved in the first place. What a joke. This is why I support indie devs whenever I can! In the end tho I am happy that the OG crew was brought back in when sony finally came to their wits (which doesn't happen often at all LMAO) so that is nice to see. I hope we get a 3rd game sometime soon.
