We've partnered with our merch provider, Shark Robot, to giveaway a PS5 and a $100 gift card to their store! gleam.io/9PPrM/second-wind-ps5-giveaway Enter at the link and the winner will be announced on January 24th. Entries close at Midnight MST on January 23rd.
Well, thats me forced into signing up for Xitter because of ps5 based poverty.
i would have added the "join second wind on twitch points" but twitch won't let me use my e-mail to join, asking for the username instead but i can't see what my username is because I joined Twitch via my PS4...which broke (blue light of death style) recently, because of course it did.
I'm not looking for solutions, mind, just wanted to moan a bit. So, yeah...a PS5...that would be nice.

Summarizing Call of Duty with "This does not spark joy" is probably the most succinct vocal takedown I have ever heard in my life. God fucking speed.
Best use of the meme I've seen.
Mother fucking wordsmith GENIUS bruh, love this guy X'D
The phrase is from a sorta life/interior... clean up/ de-cluttering woman who uses it to clients if certain items in their home are worth keeping- if it doesn't 'spark joy' it's not, more or less. I can't remember the name of the person/series.
But yeah it's very well applied to a lot of things in life, thinking along those lines myself (not word for word) has indeed prevented me playing games I know I'll come away from having barely enjoyed it and simply wasted time on.
@@niallscottanimation Marie Condo is the woman behind it.
Not even just CoD, when I'm on a call with the homies and they're playing FPS games the mood sours instantly. My other friend was working on beats in the call and had to stop "because it's hard to do art when you just hear your homies yelling obscenities and harsh judgements of their opponents every time they die." My friends are good at shooters but like, not competitive or anything... They die a lot, and I'm always tempted make a sarcastic remark about how much fun it sounds like they're having, but I'm snide enough as it is
The most surprising part of this whole video was learning that Yahtzee is a rock climber.
I think he mentioned it a couple of times back on Let's Drown Out.
It was therapy for his Tendonitis
@@stewy497 Yup. Yahtzee mentioned that a couple of times in LDO that he is an avid indoor climber.
New here, huh.
The funniest part for me was discovering that Yahtzee and my dad had the same trajectory of "Love rock climbing, no time for that shit anymore now that I have kids."
Pizza Tower truly did inflict the sheer anxiety and mania accurate to being a 40 year old Italian man, the finest sim in existence.
I hated it on first sight, I find the art style repulsive.
I loved it on first sight, I find the art style beautiful.
I lovingly hated it on first sight, I find the art style beautifully repulsive.
I pooped in the sink
I'm not sure if I loved or hated it on first sight. I find the art style beautiful but at other times, repulsive.
The mention of Sanabi's twist reminds me of the episode of Bob's Burgers where Linda hosts a murder mystery night at the diner where she reveals that she's the murderer after telling tbe audience that she wasn't.
"What? You explicitly told us at the beginning of the show you weren't the murderer!"
"Thats right! It's a twist!"
"No, that's a lie. A lie is not a twist."
Untrustworthy narrator is a fantastic trope to use but you can't shoe horn it in at the end you have to give clues of some sort. Hell even in Crackdown they kind of full that at the end but I had already figured out we're the bad guys as one time I landed in the middle of the city with two rival gangs side by side doing nothing everything was peaceful until I started shooting and all hell broke loose. That might not have been intended by the game developers but something along those lines is important if you want to use that trope.
This is one of the most positive 'games I didn't review' ever.
being a dad has changed him
@@rundown132he’s been a dad for years now
Yeeeeah...Pizza Tower made me appreciate Metriod putting the "this planet will now self-destruct everyone get the fuck out" bit at the very END of the game.
Granted, it's funny to compare it to Metroid since Pizza Tower's time limit section was ripped straight from Wario Land 4
also why I bounced off wario land 4, to be honest. I love pizza tower with my whole heart but I can’t really do more than a mission or two at a time
Except for the Nintendo DS release "Metroid Prime: Hunters", which had it at the end of every level and gave me trauma for which I will not be able to play Pizza Tower
How dare you remind me that this game exists.@@viliussmproductions
The timed sections are the best part of the game imo, really forces you to interact with the speed elements which are fantastic once you get to know your moveset. Plus it means you know most of the layout on your way out, rather than have that rush completely blind. Suppose the stress isn't for everyone though
Pizza Tower made Yahtzee feel as stressed as Peppino is, truly it is a piece of true art.
If only Yahtzee had a constant threat of his house blowing up, then he would have been able to push through
hi
@@jimmyjohnjoejr"it's the ping!"
2023 starting off with Pizza tower and hifi rush really understated how stacked the year was gonna be for video games.
Hifi Rush was the best game that came out this year though?
@@CErra310 tbh yes. Such an overhyped year but that game is great
Nope. That was literally the peak of the year.
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk was better imo
Stacked yes, but it peaked early tbh.
Completely fair criticism of pizza tower, definitely not for everyone, but the escape sequences are my personal favorite part of that game aside from going for P ranks, tbh
The fact that it induced panicked anxiety when Pizza Time started for Yahtzee tells me that it was successful at accomplishing what it set out to do.
It's nice that Yahtzee doesn't feel like he needs to do call of duty anymore.
How long until the Ubisoft sandbox gets the axe? If any game type deserves to be ignored next, it's them.
I feel like he'll still want to do them because they're the sort of games you can do your taxes to
@@BazallWorks you actually need a little bit of focus to play Ubisoft sandboxes; it's just that every game they make is like different patterns of Simon Says.
If you want to do your taxes to a game, look no further than SquareEnix or anything made by Hideo Kojima.
@@thefailtrain2202nah square has some solid games and hideo is a good dev too imo i like his games tbh😊
I do actually love when Yahtzee does games not because he wants to, but because people demand it.
I just find it fun to hear him start off with a defeated "alright! Fuck it! Fine! Here's the review of (game I didn't want to play but for some reason you want to hear me talk about)" before completely lambasting it for 8 minutes straight.
Jimminy cockthroat games are some of his more dull reviews imo as of late.
Though I am very biased towards listening to reviews about indies since I only play indies at this point.
3:21 really cool pose and facial expression, didn't even notice that this artstyle is now capable of capturing eyerolling in all of its potential.
Pizza tower really does have so much of it's core DNA come from the late 90's cartoon network, specifically Courage the Cowardly Dog...... *Because that show was a stress inducing nightmare of eldritch horrors* everyone in my generation can unanimously agree that Courage the Cowardly Dog was a deeply fucked up show and that's why it's a goddamn master piece. Which is also why Pizza Tower is so good.
That and a lot of it is Wario Land 4 mechanics with lots of new graphics (not a bad thing. I loved Wario Land 4 as a kid)
There's an artist on here who's been doing crossover art and animations of Pizza Tower and Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy. It's legitimately amazing how well the two art styles go together.
@@CreativityNull This is why gaming is the most justifable medium for sequels out of all of them. Game mechanics are iterative, and Pizza Tower had every right to expand on Wario Land 4's core gameplay after its one sequel sidelined it for wacky motion controls and then it was never touched again.
I‘d recognize it as a spiritual successor to Wario Land Shake It! down to the style being it minus fancy art style. Played that particular one so when I saw Pizza Tower and its trailer it was essentially „My Nostalia: The Game“.
@@sunlitsonata6853 Shake it had much of the same mechanics. The only motion control was being able to shake money out of things. It still had the "run long enough to sprint and break tougher blocks" thing that Wario Land 4 had. It even still had the escape sequence. The game did play a bit slower but that isn't the fault of the motion controls.
Pizza Tower feels a game from a different era, and that's why I love it. I'm so glad we have a healthy indie scene that continues to release absolute bangers to remind the rest of the industry what a good game looks like.
It looks and feels like one of those old hand-drawn games you'd get for Windows 98 that has eerily well-stylized sprites and a watercolor background that all of the sprites mesh well with even though it's obvious that the two are two completely separate entities and honestly that's such a vibe.
@@SnancyNegative Also a soundtrack that could have come out of a PS1/Sega Saturn game from Japan with 90s sound samples.
I really appreciate when games do these callbacks to earlier animation and graphics styles. World of Horror is another recent standout example of this.
Oh how I’ve missed the swearing
That's one of the things I'm glad changed after they went independent. Censoring Yatzhee is crime.
FLIP
Ikr?!
I'm actually happy for Yahtzee, the fact he no longer feels forced by deadlines to play and finish damn near every game coming out whether it's obvious it's not going to make a good video or not is very heartening to hear.
Pledging to the patreon when my boss gives me a raise.
Everything after MW2019 was like some sort of experiment in how quickly can your burn out people's interest in your new reboot universe.
Sheapard sucks, Makarov sucks, they canonized the entire black ops timeline, and it all became seasonal and very confusing.
At least Cold War was alright. It's really how funny they leaned way more into nostalgiabait with MWII and III, only to kneecap the effort with how they wrote the new versions of the villains. And killing Soap again, despite the previous game establishing a really good relationship between him and Ghost. It's like they gave 12 year old me what I wanted out of the original MW2 but then decided to spite 12 year old me by flushing it down the toilet immediately.
@@Calvin_CoolageWhat depressed me about Call of duty' that is the OG games were based around various historical events in various settings . Even if you sticking to last 100 years there's has been no shortages of perfectly 'good' lesser known wars they could do. But we just get the greatest hits over and over again.
Anyone who liked Cocoon for the experience of navigating nested worlds should give Patrick's Parabox a try. There's unfortunately even less story but it pushes the mechanics much further.
Absolutely. It's an abstract puzzle game, so there's no plot to speak of, but it did manage to make me laugh out loud several times just due to how clever some of the interactions were.
Both brilliant games.
Recursed is another great one. Also light on story, but goddamn is it incredible.
Edit: typo
"Recurred"? you mean Recursed? (Trying to find it on Steam)
@@gargaj Yeah I think they probably meant Recursed. Also an excellent puzzle game.
This channel and these videos feel so... comfy. Like it's a legitimate relief to me.
Thanks to all involved for the paths you've taken with your actual lives that have led you to the place where I still get to hear Yahtzee chat about games.
Pizza Tower was my game of the year out of what I played, but I can't blame Yahtzee for feeling stressed out by it. The wild adrenaline rush of the time pressure or blitzing through levels that once slapsticked you silly is exactly what made me love it so much (among many other things).
Better to nail a niche than become an everything bland game like Ubisoft sandboxes.
I stopped playing CoD games when they listed "Mouse and Keyboard Support" as a bullet point feature on the box for Modern Warfare 2 back in 2009. I have not regretted the decision.
well that's just unfair, a lot of the games before 2019 were 8/10s at least
It's a blessing that we have a Second Wind where Yahtz can review a game like "Humanity" can justifiably use his dog sidekick. Wouldn't work if it was an imp.
...but maybe if the imp had floggy dog ears.
There was indeed a "dog" variant of the imp that showed up from time to time
i'll miss the imps, they had a sort of comedic quality that can't be achieved in something as cute as a doggy. still, the new redesign isn't bad and we do have all the old episodes to remember them by.
I'm still a bit sad the imps never got to follow them to SW. They'll going to be stuck in the empty wasteland of the shared assets folder at the old place forever, never getting the chance to put on silly costumes or humorously die ever again. This is why you need to unionise.
@@masonlilly1889and thier name was "Chips"
The whole dog guardian spirit thing is a Japanese culture trope.
I understand why Yahtzee didn't stick with Pizza Tower, the "run back to the beginning of the level before time runs out" mechanic it borrows from Wario Land 4 is, as it turns out, more polarizing than I realized. Some people don't like the anxiety that comes with it, while others tout it as being incredibly exhilarating. Yahtzee DOES have a point, though, regarding exploring every nook and cranny in a level, since there ARE things to discover during escape sequences of certain levels, and you're either supposed to know to go there or risk running out the timer by exploring and discovering it naturally. I still freaking love the game to death, though, it's easily my favorite game of 2023 as well as one of my favorite games of all time.
Yeah as soon as Yahtzee mentioned the "run backward through the level" and hub world mechanics, I took it as a semi-review of Wario Land 4/Shake It.
@@ShadowEl Yahtzee probably never played either of those games, he probably wouldn't like them that much anyway, but who's to say...
@@Rubberman202 Yahtzee's haterection for Nintendo sure is odd.
@@ShadowEl Eh, I try not to let it get to me too much.
It's ok Yahtz, no one should play last year's Call of Duty.
You wrote that sentence wrong. You need to take out "last year's"
@@CreativityNull They used to be entertaining. And by "used to" I mean those from nearly 2 decades ago. Same goes for a lot of long running franchises, unfortunately
I think hearing him realise that this was the one that was bad even by CoD standards would have been fun, however
That sentence can be repeated for many years to come too, good job 👍
@@cyansuy3062 MW II and to a degree MWIII was quite good, the originals anyway.......kinda depressing they are 15-20 years old at this point.......
I’m sure there is a joke somewhere in the fact that some people, like myself, only know of the existence of a Modern Warfare 2 remake because of Yahtzee telling the Modern Warfare 3 remake to bugger off.
Oh no, you misunderstand, dear viewer. It's not a Modern Warfare 2 remake, it's a sequel to Modern Warfare remake that isn't at all like Modern Warfare 2 except for the parts that are. And Modern Warfare 3 is literally just a reskin of 2 with a new story I really wish I was joking but I can't tell the two apart if you show me two pictures of the multiplayer side by side.
@@BottomOfTheDumpsterFire not to be confused with the literal modern warfare 2 campaign remake that was released a couple years ago of course
Every year this video does a good job of population my Steam library with some fun games.
Bit of a bummer to see Cocoon so brushed over here. It's a short game, but one of my all-time favorites. It's so lovingly crafted. Every sound, every animation, every detail. It has such a good feeling to it.
Oof the part about the "I don't have to play this anymore" drug. Got lucky and found that while begrudgingly playing Black ops2 years ago. Haven't touched a call of duty since and have no desire to do so, and have been happily skipping by reading about all the terrible call of duties that have come out since I walked away.
Please don't tell me Yahtzee lost ownership of the imps, they were such a memorable way of his visuals
He did. That and the solid yellow background are still owned by the escapist. Not that they'll do anything with it, but 🤷♂️
@@alexkaplan6581 I heard they're still in talks, so maybe in a few years they'll get them back.
Heck even the basic character models, which is why everyone wears glasses now despite their actual eyesight
I hadn't even noticed the glasses, everyone suddenly became a Minion! 🤣
I guess I didn't realize Yahtzee didn't review MW3 remake, although that can be attributed to the interchangeability of the franchise
He kinda didn't review MW1 remake either, or rather he did but only partially.
Reboot not remake.
I don't think I've ever agreed with Yahtzee as much as I do in regards to Modern Warfare.
I don't even feel like making fun of it anymore. Even that has gotten old
Yahtzee is a fellow rock-climber? He continues to be a man of culture
Would not have guessed lol
But then again, rocks do not attempt to engage in socializing and conversation... makes sense then, when you think about it ^_^'
You must not have been watching him for long. On his old channel, he talks about it a bit :)
I just wonder where the heck he does it. He lives in the east bay which is about as famous for its rock climbing spots as the city of Atlantis
Honestly been watching since forever and I missed it too (and have watched-re-watched so many times)
Maybe it's my addled brain age lol X'D@@alan62036
There are indoor rock climbing businesses.
I will say that while I was also driven to anxiety by Pizza Tower, being able to kick nine kinds of shit out of the bosses was *very* cathartic at the end of it all.
Yahtzee acknowledgeding Jusant's climbing mechanic's, as an unexpected fellow climber, was all the praise I needed for that game.
Pizza Tower was my Game of the Year and its anxiety inducing gameplay was one of the main reasons. To each their own. And the soundtrack was incredible.
100% agreed. My GOTY too and I love the adrenalin rush of the Pizza Time sections
I'm team 'ow my anxiety' but it's nice we can agree that it's great
LOLed at a bunch of stuff, plus, the end credits where the white dog puts a signboard on the ground and writes "Rub Tummy" on it before rolling on its back for someone to give it a tummy rub... so cute! 💖
Wait, Yatzee has kids? Did I hear that right in the rock climbing metaphor?
Two of them iirc. He played "Bluey: The Video Game" a bit and talked about how much he liked the show when he watches it with them.
I like Pizza Tower and I think the end of the level race back was actually a really good mechanic, but at the risk of saying "You're playing it wrong" as a game defense (Which I do try to avoid because that's on the game devs to design it so you DO play it correctly), the way I found that it works best is a style many may not like.
Short answer is: You have to plan. Not only do you have to plan, you have to first explore the level and possibly play it a couple times so you can properly plan. Then you have to make your run following the plan. That's how I get S ranks anyways.
I can see why some people would not like this mix. It kind of requires you to like the aspects of a twitchy fast paced platformer, a logic puzzle platformer, and an exploration platformer. If you don't like any of those, the whole combo can fall apart.
You guys have really been killing it with the new company. Hasn’t been a single boring or bad video from anyone, and it’s really a nice change of pace from all the corporatization on the rest of the platform. Excellent work all around
That description of Cocoon reminds me of Patrick’s Parabox; a puzzle game I really should get back to at some point.
Oh man, the low-key glee with which Yahtzee realizes he doesn't have to play Call of Duty again, lol!
Partially emptied ballsack on a laundry room floor is a weirdly accurate way of describing that art style.
Im so happy i can still see reviews from you
I remember you saying years ago, in a lets drown out, that you'd tried climbing, glad you kept up 😊
SANABI really does love its crazy, out-of-left-field twists that no one could have predicted, but I loved the game all the same. One of my favorites of 2023. Come for the grappling hook acrobatics. Stay for the soundtrack.
agreed, looking back the story could have been executed better but it was still entertaining all the same
@@jimmyjohnjoejr As whacky as it got in several places, the game still finished strong. That grand finale made me feel something.
I was wondering where you went, Yahtzee! Good to see ya again!
Yahtzee, the trick is to bring the child with you climbing once they get about 5 or so. It is very easy to belay a child of that size. They are so light thier weight does not even push the rope through the device. It makes bringing them back down fun. My daughter loves climbing with me. If she has trouble reaching a hold I can just hoist her up the wall.
Once they learn how not to get squished in the bouldering area you can climb with them.
Very happy to not be part of the CoD crowd. Nice to hear someone else say it
I lold at 04:15 when the smoke was coming out of the magazine instead of the barrel
I'm gonna miss the compilations of the year's ZP/FR episodes (for 2023, at least). Always fun to have on in the background.
Through those compilations I’ve watched almost every episode of ZP just by playing them in the background
Maybe in 2025 we could get a FR compilation here in Second Wind!
The Escapist made one for ZP, but... in solidarity to the Second Wind team, I ain't touchin' that shit. XD
Bruh no worries, there'll be a user out there doin' someone's god's work by creating a compilation vid for us that we can watch elsewhere from Escrapist monetization ^_^
@@andrewphilos I have avoided viewing material on The Escapist since The Incident, including old episodes of ZP. I don't feel right with any monetization going to a parent company that had nothing to do with making the media, and everything to do with disrupting it.
The most surprising part of this whole video is that people were unironically asking him to review a Call of Duty game.
Eh, I do feel like his roasting works best on games we love enough to personally know, and to be in on the joke, but particularly savage critiques of games, developers and maybe even fandoms we love to hate are also cathartic.
@@jongrubbdesign he could make a review of "the last 5 call of duty" at once every 5 years to have enough jokes, maybe. It's not like people will notice if he mixes up some installments
I fucking love Pizza Tower. My favorite game of 2023. But I totally get where he’s coming from with the stress of the time limit. I typically only completed 1 or 2 levels per day. Although when I say “completed”, I do mean running through enough times to get all the collectibles, the S-rank, and the special achievements.
I came back for the P-ranks after beating the game, too. They were very hard.
Another game Yahtzee didn't review last year which was a personal fave of mine was Gravity Circuit, basically just Megaman but with a grappling hook and you can do a spinning piledriver, if that floats your boat.
The end credits gag should've had people walking over the dog rubbing their own tummies
5:32 this bit about prescribing no more modern warfare is actually so true. Dropped it entirely and I’ve never been better (not exclusively because of it but it’s partially to blame)
Yahtzee’s take on Pizza Tower was my exact experience too.
This was the mpst positive roundup I've seen him do, this is remarkable.
Finding out about his rock climbing enthusiasm really makes me long for the game that finally makes him discuss his keen enthusiasm for BDSM. I think we could all stand to learn a thing or two
The best part of this video was the sign that said "Behave, peasants". 10/10
Anyone else surprised that last gag didn't turn into "But doctor, I AM Modern Warfare 3"?
You can legit feel the joy Yahtzee feels in not having to do endless copies of Modern Warfare (or Assassin’s Creed) any more, it’s quite refreshing
Glad to know Yahtzee gave Pizza Tower a shot, if anything.
Fun little factoid on Pizza Tower, look at Mort the Chicken. They had asked to use him in the game and was allowed to. He fits in so perfectly with the artstyle too.
The Avoid Playing Soulslikes prescription's been working out great for me
Im hoping with fully ramblomatic, we can go back to the '07 somewhat funny things of yahtzee dubbing ofer game scenes like the vampire interview or the dry cleaners
i don't know if yahtzee's mic levels are correct and everyone else is just loud, but I always have to turn up the volume on my end by a lot to be able to hear his fking rambling, and i do love hearing it.
I’m so obsessed with the new intro music
The MW burn at the end was delightful
I'm just glad Sanabi is getting the attention it deserves.
In an odd way, Pizza Tower being an anxiety inducing game helped me deal with my own anxiety issues last year, hell I even 100%'d the levels (still need the final boss lol)
Also the running back through the stage isnt as rougelike as Yahtzee says, its clear with some indicators/arrows and blocked sections where you have to go, but it is confusing the first time.
Love the Marie Kondo reference!
Jesus Christ that last line. I love it.
The dash mechanic in Pizza Tower gives me strong nostalgia for the platforming sequences in the SNES "classic" Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster Busts Loose.
I love that the time bar decided to rename Jusant to ‘Inside the Mind of a Dying Seagull’ complete with capitals on all the big words
Lol the ending im crying fantastic
Oh, those ending stingers always get me.
One can only wonder what choice words and metaphors Yahtzee could bring forth if he played The Day Before.
Amazing to see this drop
Further amazing that Yahtzee has also suffered "Dad climber syndrome" just as myself !
Air Fortress on the NES did the exploding level run back to the entrance in 1987.
"Congress votes to bomb Disneyland"
My approval of Congressional decision-making has just increased 1000%
I feel pretty much the same way about Pizza Tower. Really fun game, but I can only play one or two levels at a time. I only get to play it at night after a long day of work, so its intense energy wears me out. I'll beat it eventually, but I can't see myself going back for higher ranks unfortunately.
Indoor bouldering is great! I sure do miss it!
Woohoo, the grand return of Glados on Xanax is finally here
Huh? I must have missed that part?
@@drdca8263the ai voice he uses to read the game titles sounds like Glados on Xanax.
@@Mr_Muda_Himself thanks!
The beginning of this new theme song reminds me of the Suzanne Vega track "Blood Makes Noise". Suzanne Vega rules!
Storming pass the 400K sub' mark, nice!
Amazing stuff guys!
I love you.
That AMIGA was mirrored and i demand recompense for that dear sir!
Yeah, as the years go on I've become more and more convinced that 'Spec Ops: The Line' was the singular anomaly in the modern shooter genre. Unless you count the first CoD Modern Warfare, and that was only good with its story until they kept trying to replicate it with each successive installment.
I guess it depends what you mean by modern shooter. The STALKER games were/are quite good, the Metro series is fantastic, and there is always Metal Gear Solid. But as far a military modern shooters, yea Spec Ops the line is rather unique in the sense of a good story paired with modern military combat.
how is the plot of the first modern warfare good
the game literally opens with "a nuclear superpower is in the state of unexplained civil war so go hijack a tanker flying a nato flag in the baltic sea" and then it continues getting stupider
He calls the genre "spunk-gargle wee wee" for a reason, after all
@@richardvlasek2445 true, though the part where the main character gets killed horribly in a nuclear explosion was fairly new storytelling in games like that.
At least it was at the time, before every FPS pulled the same thing.
@@andyt2979yeah it was new and novel but as you note, it kinda kicked off a trend where games that wanted to have “mature” stories but also remain pretty much just “tough mfer with a gun shoots the bad mans” became just depressing and turgid slogs that frankly, would have been better served with a story that embraced the power fantasy
God i love these!!! The swearing is so so satisfying.
“Hackney young adult plot” *puts up a picture of Eragon*
So you have chosen, death
Was hoping to hear his thoughts on Atlas Fallen.
Great vid. Stay for the "Rub Tummy."
Good round up!
I agree completely with the pizza tower segment, i can play it for at most two levels before needing to lie down
The new credit music already makes me feel at home.
Had a similar experience with Pizza Tower. I absolutely love the game and its art style and its embracing of pure chaos, but it is A Lot and there is a lot happening that can be difficult to parse so I can't play it for very long at a time and it gets kind of hard to go back to.
God I love that new music. It is a real banger.
I have to admit I fast forwarded through the ZP one with anxiety hoping I wouldn't have to hear any of it while still hearing the beginning of the review and hoped I would recognize the final punchline when it came so I could stop the video before the song played again. This one, by contrast, is so good that I'll literally dance to it at the end of the video all the way to the end of the song. Just one of many silver linings of Yahtzee being cut loose from the Escapist.
i genuinely wonder if they will do a "extra punctuation" type video series as i loved those
That's just what Semi-Ramblomatic is
Yahtzee finally reviewed my hyperfixation and Game of the Year, and the entire time I was sweating bullets hoping he'd like it, and yes he did, THANK GOD.
I was fully expecting the voice to say “Modern Warfare Eye Eye Eye” 😂😂
