Definitely the Fox & the Hound. It was one of those movies growing up that made me learn a lot at a really young age. That speech about friends and family in this video made, me tear up a bit. Lost a sibling to depression this weekend. It has been hard but honestly Jirard listening to you talk about games has helped keep me in better spirits. I love you man
I am loving how you're taking a different approach on how you're narrating these games. Seems like you guys changed it up with Smash Ultimate and now this. Keep it up Jirard, you're all killing it.
Just finished it. The first platformer game in my life, never thought there'll be one that I'd like. Can't wait for the sequel. Thought it was coming February 11, but it turned out there's still a month to wait.
Bro I already enjoyed platforming games, but with a lot of other games it felt more like work to explore stuff, and this is one of the few I enjoyed exploring and finding all the secrets and hidden areas and figuring out how to get to them.
Is it weird that just looking at this game makes me tear up? It’s half because of the ascetic and half because of that opening cutscene. I consider myself not to be very emotional and I still cried like a baby when I saw Haru die. The dynamic between him and Ori plus the way Ori acted always gets me.
@@theomurphy6920 definitive has a new location along with a couple new abilities I think and it only costs a couple dollars more than the standard edition. it's $20 dollars at most anyways so I'd say it's worth it
Ori is what games should be: A world that's just fascinating, wonderful and exciting which takes you to another place and just makes you feel nostalgic and happy... It's a MASTERPIECE.
I don't like metroidvanias at all, but I bought this to try and convince myself to like them, and I certainly enjoy it more than any other metroidvanias I've played, and it's beautiful, the gameplay is great. But now I've got stuck at the top of the tree thing and there's no way out, I've searched for like half an hour in this small area. I dunno if it's a bug, or it's just a metroidvania demonstrating just why I hate them. Oh well, I guess that's where the game ends for me. But yeah it's the best of the worst, it's not as confusing and back tracky
One of the most memorable moments for me was when I was chilling about in front of the Ginso Tree core and then I got an achievement called "run for your life"
I will endlessly shower that segment with praise for being one of my favorite moments in all of gaming history. The excitement of cleansing the core quickly turning to fear as that achievement pops up and I realize how much danger I'm in. Emotion and adrenaline run rampant as I make repeated attempts to outrun the literal lifeblood of Nibel while listening to the magnificent soundtrack that just makes me so....happy, even though I'm constantly seconds from death. Ori and the Blind Forest will hold a permanent place in my heart, and not just for this masterpiece of an escape sequence, but for being a masterpiece in its entirety!
i really like how storry is made impactful but still straightforward and simple to understand you can feel all the intended emotions and what characters feel, and aren't forced to having to undertand it and instead can just take in more of the experience
I just got this the other day, and let my 6 year old play it first. My other son was playing Hollow Knight (legendary game), and needed help. I forgot about the beginning of Ori, so I walk back to my 6 year old and see him getting a tissue. Next thing I know, he is balling his eyes out over the prologue. He cried for a good 5 straight minutes he was so upset over Naru dying. It broke my heart but I told him it will get better as he plays the game.
Been playing consoles since the Atari 2600 came out. As time(decades) have gone by, I have less and less time to play. This channel is great to see games that I never have heard of and will never have time to play. Thanks for the great journey of the amazing games that exist.
Halfway through the game I realized how simple the story really is. What set it apart from the rest was how they actually spent time on the emotions of the characters. A lot of stories tell how they happen, but this game, like the childhood movies that make me cry, spend time with how the characters are actually feeling about everything that's happening. Even the music. It's almost like I could hear the flute crying at times.
ori and the blind forest one was of the fist indie games i truly played and i loved every minute of it , it looked beautiful , the story was heartfealt and the movement was sooo good
Enjoying the new style and direction but PLEASE keep including your game stats. My favorite part of your videos is always seeing the time you spent, number of deaths, etc. Personally it gives me a greater appreciation for what you endure for these videos.
This was an EXCELLENTLY written review! I hope you enjoyed it after getting absolutely 100 percent...I think that would suck at least a little of the joy out of it for me!
First Completionist episode to ever bring on the waterworks for me. Especially that part where you talk about your own bonds with the friends you’ve made. Dammit I hate leaking fluids from my eyeballs! It feels super gross!
I am here to say that this is the best Ori review to date. I liked ACG a lot, but this probably takes the cake. My name is OriGuy, and this is my favorite Ori review on the RUclips.
Dude. Holy crap. That video was incredible. This new twist on your style is a breath of fresh air and I’m so happy you’re continuing to evolve regardless of the RUclips algorithm being against you at points. Keep up the good work.
Your production and writing staff have gotten very good. The evolution of your videos is really beautiful and this may be one of your best videos yet. Honestly. Everyone of you has gotten so good at your crafts.
This game is really something special, and now this style of the Completionist is also something special. I don’t know how things could ever get even more special
It finally happened. The Completionist completing Ori and the Blind Forest. I’m so happy that I’m crying just as much as what happened at the intro in the game!
OMFG this is EXACTLY the game I wanted you to do! Normally I'm not too fussed but there was me completing this few weeks back being like, "I wish Jirard would complete this", and by the sky god Tengri you've gone and done it. What a happt little coincidence. I adore this game to piece and bawled my eyes out at the end. Such a perfect game.
I actually haven’t played sotn yet. I’ve been meaning to but I’ve just never had a chance. I have played aria of sorrow though, and if it’s anything like that game I’m sure I’ll love it.
@@waffles8144 aria of sorrow is far shittier than SOTN if I'm being honest, so make sure you actually play the founders of the genre before you claim a "holy trinity" :)
The intro and the review was awesome, but I missed something by the end, like, how many hours? You died more times than you'd like to admit, but it would be really cool to know how many. The summary feels like a satisfactory end to every review, please include it again.
I chose Ori and The Blind Forest as the first proper adventure game to play through with my five year old daughter. We were both blown away. What a game. Amazing memories. Always get choked up watching anything to do with this game. Her little face was a picture.
I called it! I knew it was Ori and the Blind Forest when he announced it, and I couldn't be happier! Best looking Metroidvania out there! But looks like I need to play this game again. Well, the Definitive Edition at least.
You've done it again Jirard! Ori and the Blind Forest is one of my favorite indie games and now this is one of my favorite of your videos. I will never forget the first time I finished this game and I legit couldn't stop myself from crying because it was so beautiful. I really hope you get the chance to complete Ori and the Will of the Wisps when it comes out. I know I will.
Jirard really needs to complete Dust: An Elysian Tail. Has a similarly gorgeous handdrawn art style. More impressively, aside from the music and voice acting, it was made by one guy.
Completing Dust isn't going to be too heavy of a thing, (one playthrough to 117%) but yeah, it's definitely worth the narrative and everything, it's a gorgeous game
You're the reason I downloaded this game on my Xbox One, thank you sir! Also Switch players out there this game is being ported to the Nintendo E-Shop.
I love the anime one long strand of hair that sticks out over your forehead at the end of your intro XD Also, I _love_ the transitions for this video that hold focus on aspects involved in completing. It feels like a perfect game for this channel!
Got this game today after I saw someone play the first hour of the sequel. I started it up to see a little bit of it and couldn't stop playing until I restored water to the forest. It's absolutely breathtaking in design and execution.
That "like Ted" moment was perfect and hilarious. That is how you should handle humor in your videos all the time: infrequent, and when the humor does show up, it's quick to the punch and doesn't overstay its welcome. Brevity and surprise are some of the core rules of good humor, so I hope you follow this kind of format for it in your videos going forward. It was a great moment made greater by the fact that it was a rare case of humor in a video with an otherwise serious tone, making it unexpected, and its brevity allowed you to laugh without getting sick of the joke and wishing the video would just move on. Great stuff there.
@@mitchellsnaw7263Basically some random youtuber made a song with lyrics consisting almost entirely that phrase and told people to spam it in comment sections along with his profile pic.
I'm just going to go to your videos for reviews to see if I want to buy a game from now on. Your passion for games is something of beauty. Love your channel!
"The key to any good story are relationships. The way the characters feel about each other and bounce off on another is crucial to the deceptively simple story telling in Ori." Can this be applied to all media and games?
Ori is easily one of my favorite all-time games, man just watching these escape sequences and listening to the music is getting me excited and amped up to play! You truly are amazing at putting together and presenting your videos as stories in an unique way that even after dozens of hours of already playing the game, I'm ecstatic! (doesn't just account for Ori, you're talented!)
I, as a completionist, just immediatly noped when i saw "One Life" mode Most achievements on this game are fine to do, but i don't feel like i can do the speedrun and no death achievements, that's just... no
I am loving about the new show stuff! It's all perfect! Also, props to your dude who chooses the games on the background self every week. Noticed it since I started watching around episode 80, and love it every time!
I knew Naru would die. It was sad, yes, but not that much. Now Ori dying in the prologue, staggering slowly forward, barely climbing onto a branch and crawling a bit before collapsing, that was just hard to watch. A small furry creature dying of starvation.
Thank you for reminding me about how much this game impacted me. I teared up, like...3 times just watching this video. That music is just so gosh dang friggin' /emotional/, and the /story/, and aaaaaaa ;_;
I had been wanting to play this game since it was released, and your video gave me that last push I needed. 15 hours and 900 deaths later on normal mode, I beat it and am going to save my sanity trying any other difficulties haha. I wish you mentioned how long it took you time-wise to do all the difficulties and achievements. From the achievements you showed on screen looks like it was spaced out over a few weeks. Love the channel, guys! Keep being awesome.
This is such an amazing game. One of two, actually, that I really want to play but can't because I don't own a windows computer or an XBox (the other being Alan Wake). Everything else either works well on macOS, can be emulated there easily, or exists on PS4.
@@TeraunceFoaloke My computer is from 2011. Show me one windows computer that's 8 years old and runs Ori smoothly (that didn't cost more than a thousand bucks, which is what mine cost - and it's still running smoothly aside from games.)
Finally managed to beat Ori on One Life mode. Time: 2 hours. 7 minutes. All items. Thank frick that's over. It took days of practice, about a hundred attempts This game is absolutely ruthless with it's instakill deathtraps everywhere. Hollow Knight on Steel Soul mode was easier because if you fell into a spike pit, the game would forgivingly teleport you to a safe location (minus some HP). All you had to worry about was getting the boss battles right. But with Ori, the entire game is the boss fight and you have to do the entire game perfectly. All the jumping puzzles, all the traps, all the obstacle courses. All of it perfect. One little slip into a spike pit and the game will brutally make you watch your character bleed to death and die. GG game over. I haven't had another metroidvania force me to practice speedrunning the game so tightly and with so much discipline
This new format really helps captures the tone of the game. It helps convey a better understanding of what the game means. Its tight as fuck and looks like a lot of effort. Amazing work
What childhood film hit you hardest in the feels?
Definitely the Fox & the Hound. It was one of those movies growing up that made me learn a lot at a really young age. That speech about friends and family in this video made, me tear up a bit. Lost a sibling to depression this weekend. It has been hard but honestly Jirard listening to you talk about games has helped keep me in better spirits. I love you man
You beat me to it, I was going to say the same thing. When she drops off the fox and drives away, that shit was too much.
The secret of Nym only because it made me understand that death and pain are real things and they come from anywhere.
Fox and houd
Ps are you going tocomplete for honor?
The Completionist Freaking the movie Toy Story 3... URGHHH THE ENDING.
I am loving how you're taking a different approach on how you're narrating these games. Seems like you guys changed it up with Smash Ultimate and now this. Keep it up Jirard, you're all killing it.
killing it. could have cooked a steak with the amount of heat he was cooking with.
Ori, the game that can made you cry on the first prologue minutes.
Agreed even when i think of it, my eyes start to be filled with water (Not crying)
I cried from the beginning and after the first escape sequence, It's of tears of joy from finishing the escape
@Madfox I didnt watch the trailer, I want to keep the surprise when I play it
I only cried in the dark soul intro
Yeah; It's a REALLY Tearjerking Game!!
First Playthrough = Water cause TEARS!
Second Playthrough = Wind cause SPEED IS KEY!
And Third Playthrough = Warmth cause THE FIRES OF RAGE!
Completion = Earth 'cause LAID TO REST!
And throughout everything = Heart! GO PLANET!
That is PERFECT!!!!
Just finished it. The first platformer game in my life, never thought there'll be one that I'd like.
Can't wait for the sequel. Thought it was coming February 11, but it turned out there's still a month to wait.

Ori and the blind forest is the most underrated game of this generation. An amazing experience.

Same on both lol
@Michel Banès I know and I'm so hyped! But I don't have a Xbox One 😭
Sadly everyone who owns a Xbox One is usually not into this type of game.
This game did really well on the Xbox I thought?

Those few notes of the Ori main theme is enough to remind me about how beautiful this game is. Love it!
At a time when I thought games were losing their ability to grab me, Ori completely shattered that concept. It's an amazing and beautiful game.
I was really hoping Ted would say finish it at the end and everyone would get mad at him

I kept thinking the whole time I was playing ori that I just wanted to play dust. Imo Dust is way better.
I have Dust as well on Steam but ended up so drawn into Ori that I never finished it
Completing Dust isn't going to be too heavy of a thing, (one playthrough to 117%) but yeah, it's definitely worth the narrative and everything, it's a gorgeous game

Ah yes, Dust. It's cool Ori is getting a sequel, but Dust just needs one way more.
I feel like Ori is better from a graphical and fluid gameplay standpoint, but Dust has it beat in the character and narrative standpoint.

"The key to any good story are relationships. The way the characters feel about each other and bounce off on another is crucial to the deceptively simple story telling in Ori."
Can this be applied to all media and games?
Ori is easily one of my favorite all-time games, man just watching these escape sequences and listening to the music is getting me excited and amped up to play! You truly are amazing at putting together and presenting your videos as stories in an unique way that even after dozens of hours of already playing the game, I'm ecstatic! (doesn't just account for Ori, you're talented!)
I, as a completionist, just immediatly noped when i saw "One Life" mode
Most achievements on this game are fine to do, but i don't feel like i can do the speedrun and no death achievements, that's just... no
yo it's not just this game this whole review is magical I mean we actually went outside what a mind blow!
even after running it for over a 200 times, the atmosphere gets me everytime
Music and Visuals are sooooo amazing
What did you think of the sequel? I'm looking forward to playing them both sometime soon
I am loving about the new show stuff! It's all perfect! Also, props to your dude who chooses the games on the background self every week. Noticed it since I started watching around episode 80, and love it every time!
I was 12 when this game first came out and IDK why but I cried when naru died.
I knew Naru would die. It was sad, yes, but not that much. Now Ori dying in the prologue, staggering slowly forward, barely climbing onto a branch and crawling a bit before collapsing, that was just hard to watch. A small furry creature dying of starvation.
Thank you for reminding me about how much this game impacted me. I teared up, like...3 times just watching this video.
That music is just so gosh dang friggin' /emotional/, and the /story/, and aaaaaaa ;_;
I'm in the third dungeon and I died more than a hundred times... I could never play the one life mode x)
I had been wanting to play this game since it was released, and your video gave me that last push I needed.
15 hours and 900 deaths later on normal mode, I beat it and am going to save my sanity trying any other difficulties haha.
I wish you mentioned how long it took you time-wise to do all the difficulties and achievements. From the achievements you showed on screen looks like it was spaced out over a few weeks.
Love the channel, guys! Keep being awesome.
This is such an amazing game. One of two, actually, that I really want to play but can't because I don't own a windows computer or an XBox (the other being Alan Wake). Everything else either works well on macOS, can be emulated there easily, or exists on PS4.
Ori is available on Steam as well.
@@azzaprime7257 Yes, but only for Windows. Emulating windows is too tough in itself to be able to run the game properly on a mac.
@@Nikkiflausch You do know most Mac computers have let you dual boot to Windows since several years ago, right?
@@TeraunceFoaloke My computer is from 2011. Show me one windows computer that's 8 years old and runs Ori smoothly (that didn't cost more than a thousand bucks, which is what mine cost - and it's still running smoothly aside from games.)
You just named two of my favorite games. Add Silent Hill 2, Ocarina of Time, and Super Mario World, and you have my top 5 lol
I forgot how much I love this game and it's music until I started tearing up just by hearing these beautiful songs again
same
I’ve been trying to complete this game all this month and I can’t believe you did it around the same time!
Finally managed to beat Ori on One Life mode. Time: 2 hours. 7 minutes. All items. Thank frick that's over. It took days of practice, about a hundred attempts
This game is absolutely ruthless with it's instakill deathtraps everywhere. Hollow Knight on Steel Soul mode was easier because if you fell into a spike pit, the game would forgivingly teleport you to a safe location (minus some HP). All you had to worry about was getting the boss battles right.
But with Ori, the entire game is the boss fight and you have to do the entire game perfectly. All the jumping puzzles, all the traps, all the obstacle courses. All of it perfect. One little slip into a spike pit and the game will brutally make you watch your character bleed to death and die. GG game over. I haven't had another metroidvania force me to practice speedrunning the game so tightly and with so much discipline
Better than other games with Instant Death spikes. Here you have a small chance to recover at least and a dumb mistake doesn't always lead to death.
This was the best reviews i have seen for the Iron Giant . 10/10
Where does it say how many hours he had?
This new format really helps captures the tone of the game. It helps convey a better understanding of what the game means. Its tight as fuck and looks like a lot of effort. Amazing work
