Thanks for playing Long Live Santa! I'm part of the dev team and we know it's pretty rough around the edges but we'll always keep it free for people to mess around with at Christmas :D
The Christmas midi (sorry: tracker) tune, the homage to the original LGR opening, and the clones; it's crazy how much an annual LGR Christmas video helps get me in the holiday spirit each year.
For some reason, it instantly reminded me of Sneak King. Maybe it's because it's free, maybe it's because it's a non-violent stealth game that somehow manages to be creepier than if violence _was_ involved, or maybe it's because I'm kinda weird.
Always like how the Christmas videos are a sort of throwback to the older style of LGR vids, both with the classic intro and them being reviews of (usually forgotten) PC games. While I definitely prefer the direction the channel has taken overall, focusing more or hardware and such, but it's nice that once a year we get this little throwback for a month.
We share that in common then! I much prefer to do things "normally," but it still ends up being fun to briefly go back to the old ways at the end of the year :)
I just posted a comment basically stating the opposite, that I miss the straight up singular game reviews over the peripheral/PC Hardware reviews. He's quite literally reviewed over a thousand games though so I get it. I just miss the game review focused videos, that's all.
@@jonbourgoin182 Same, I'd love to see more game reviews, however I think that was one of the things that caused Clint to burn out a bit. I wouldn't wanna see that happen again, so just gotta take what we get :)
That 3 yr old will always faintly remember that train game, and will spend a couple decades trying to find out what it was. I know... it happened to me as a kid with Cannon Fodder 2 lol. Took me 20 years to connect the dots.
Tell me about it. As a first grader, I played what I think was some kind of PC booter game that came on one of those massive 5 1/4" floppies on an IBM computer in school that involved progressing across and up levels of platforms to get to a goal at the top. I'm certain it was some kind of edutainment game because each platform had like 10 or so steps, and you solved math problems to progress. Once you got to one end of the platform, you'd climb a ladder to the next one. The levels above the first one had holes at some points which you could fall through and lose progress, and you could chose what math problem to solve out of an autogenerated selection of them, and the correct answer would let you move a number of steps equal to it. I believe the game had a two player component to it so it was a racing game in addition to a math solving edutainment game. I still have no idea what the name of that game is, I'm certain it was one of those games programmed by teachers/computer tech personnel in the school system and it never obtained the level of success the Oregon Trail did.
Man, how do you keep inventing ideas for videos after all these years. The nostalgia is appreciated, I'm 37 and grew up with and owned the majority of the stuff you got your hands on. Worked in IT for 15 years because of it.
The last one is a pet peeve of mine, when devs mishmash a bunch of retro elements that make no sense together. The texture resolution is quite early 90s yet the models are way higher in polycount and the VHS effect makes no sense in this context, which gives you no sense of what it's meant to be, taking away immersion that should be key in a horror game.
Yeah, I 100% think the VHS filter is only there because the dev saw it on the Unity asset store or something, went "oh that looks spooky" then slapped it into the game without a second thought. I was going to be the teeniest bit charitable and say that the low res assets could be the dev "knowing their limits" so to speak, but the game appears to be internally rendered at a low resolution in general (notice the aliasing, when the VHS filter is turned off), which tells me that they probably were intentionally going for that PS1-esque aesthetic and bungled it. I'm not really sure why I'd want to be charitable towards a game that was pretty clearly made on the quick and cheap for a quick buck and nothing else, though.
@@TheSmart-CasualGamer That may've been the intent of the author of the filter, but it's still labeled as a generic "VHS" effect in the game. At the least, that makes me think the game dev thinks of it as just a general VHS tape effect.
I think this is another person who tries to copy or being heavily inspired the style of other indie dev who is known for horror games that are mostly influenced by PS1 survival horror, 80s slasher flicks, and the age of VHS home video (their games are also a little bit janky, but for some people this is the charm of those games) aka Puppet Combo
I was suffering pretty intensely from health issues a few years ago and couldn't do the 6 hour return trip to visit my family for the occasion. The next year they went out of their way to set things up for me to "fail" again and disinvited me late Christmas Eve. They've also cancelled visiting me for Christmas during this time. It's become a family tradition to find reasons Im a disappointment and setting things up so it's impossible for me to satisfy their (feigned) wants for the season. Contrary to how it may sound Im not complaining, nor feeling sorry for myself. It is what it is and ultimately it has given me clarity about the sorts of people my family are. The reason I mention it is just to give some weight to the sincerity of my thanks to you Clint for your Christmas videos. They've given me a way to enjoy the occasion over the last few years. Without them Id have had nothing Christmas-ey to enjoy, and I've always loved Christmas. I find myself looking forward to seeing what shenanigan's the clones have instore for me in the same way a kid might get excited about his presents a month or so out from the day :) Thanks again :)
I'm happy to say that LGR Christmas time videos have become one of the long standing Christmas traditions for me as an adult. Watching the first LGR Christmas video of the season is like putting up the tree or the lights for me. It's just not Christmas time without 'em.
"VHS effects" is basically like modern retro sprites. It's "recreating" a look that never actually existed that people who weren't around at the time *think* was reality.
My life has changed so much from when I started watching LGR videos... I was 10 watching the Sims 3 reviews over and over when I got home from school and now I'm 23 still checking the channel weekly for new uploads. Something so comforting about all your content. Huge fan.
I just LOVE these LGR Christmas specials where Clint dresses up and looks like a nice gentleman, makes it worth it to been subscribed since 2009 literally
You're my yearly cheesy tv Christmas specials I look forward too! It makes me feel like back when I watched cable and suddenly every episode are reruns or previous Christmas episodes that you don't care about themselves but still want to watch. I don't care about the games you cover, I'm always just happy to watch your stuff!
SteamVR popped up since the game is built using Unreal Engine (easily noticed by the use of the default font) and by default, Unreal enables the SteamVR plugin. Not usually detected by developers that don’t have a VR headset. Source: released an Unreal Engine game on all major platforms (consoles and PC).
Interesting. I wondered why a few games I've tried recently start opening all the VR stuff, despite not being VR games. Is there any way to stop this from happening?
I love this channel and can't believe we are already at Christmas 2022 my god, you're the best Clint we so don't deserve humans like you, one of the best channels on RUclips, we need more Christmas clint too, Happy Holidays Merry Christmas LGR and thank you always for all you do for us fans each and every year.
Love your Christmas Tree. Your place always looks so cozy. Well done. Also, rocking COVID this Christmas, so sick as a dog, but thankfully I have your annual Christmas videos to get me through it. 🎄🎅
Yaaay :D Christmas LGR truly marks the holiday season is upon us! It became a tradition for me to rewatch, among others, the "90s Nonsense: the WizardWorks Holiday Collection CD-ROM" video because it`s just sooooo genuinely entertaining and jolly :D
@@LGR That`s unbelievable Clint! It`s one of the best Christmas themed videos!... SONNTAG :D :D :D It still cracks me up every single time! RUclips is just silly :D Have a wonderful weekend! Lots of love man :)
Alien: Isolation actually did get the "VHS Effect" correct. They ran the background through real equipment to generate material for the in-game effect. It was done super well.
I live just for that JJ theme in the intro~ My introduction to Jazz Jackrabbit was holiday hare 95 and it just warms my heart every time I hear those tunes
you're the reason I got into retro computers and into 3d printing (partially, my architecture teacher is also to blame.) I got a ender 3 and I'm planning on printing a callisto II from thingiverse and putting actual computer parts into it. Here's five bucks towards me (maybe) making two and sending one to you!
A Lack table enclosure will do you well with the Ender. Controlling your environment is crucial to getting consistent prints from month to month and keeping your bed levelling to a minimum. A good enclosure is the best way to prevent warping on larger parts. I was planning on making a retro-like computer at some point after I build an enclosure for my T-Rex (my 2nd large format printer). I was thinking a modern cyberdeck but Low Budget Tech has some neat desktop related ideas I'll have to crib from.
Secret Santa seems like a de-make version of Merry Gear Solid: Secret Santa and Merry Gear Solid: Ghosts of Christmas Past. I hope they get a shot sometime, some Christmas.
Loved this Christmas LGR video! Never once looked into Christmas games on Steam but will definitely will now. Made me laugh so much when the video changed to you covered in lights hahaha! Thanks Clint for making my day! 😁
L, you bring Xmas cheer every year! I've lost mostly all connection with the magic the season brought up through my 20's, but I get a small flash of a memory of a happy warm holiday feeling each year from your videos.
Always great to see the "Aaaaah!" intro make a return. And if only Secret Santa had you using weapons like in Metal Gear Solid. You'd have Violent Night: The Game.
I was just driving home yesterday saying Christmasssssss in a weird voice and thinking when is LGR going to do a Christmas video. It's like my Christmas prayers were answered
Awesome! I like how you redid the old intro, I didn't even know I missed it. And also the Christmas clone sketch never disappoints and the overall video had me snorting and giggling on the floor. I hate the cheesy Christmas songs and movies playing all over from the start of December, but LGR Christmas episodes are actually welcome here.
LGRs clone is a tradition now, no christmas withouth him. A christmas withouth LGRs clone is like a christmas withouth presents, its not the same feeling.
Clint, love the newly re-created (rebooted?) classic LGR intro. Wishing you a warm and happy holiday season. Thanks for always brightening our spirits!
Thanks for doing these "Christmas Specials" Clint! I look forward to them every year! It reminds me of growing up and watching Christmas Specials on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s. Merry Christmas! Now I need some nog! 🍺
Thank you for actually purchasing and playing these games that millions of us plow by daily in the never ending pit of garbage on Steam! I love the channel and as a old school PC Builder myself, I appreciate your depth and knowledge covering the products of the past that we used, or never got the chance to pick up back then. Happy Holidays! T
Thank you so much for never changing the Christmas intro. It's like a Christmas tradition, it's so cool. Plus, it's ironically almost retro, if you think about it.
Check out "Mission in Snowdriftland" - it started as a Nintendo-commissioned webgame as a countdown to Christmas (Advent Calendar style) and then became it's own game. It's a good platformer.

It brings me so much nostalgia, I remember watching Clint way back in the beginning of highschool . How time has passed hahah
@@Ice_Soup_3k I was already almost 30 when I started to watch the channel, but even now at 40 the Christmas episodes somehow make me feel like a kid
Nights into dreams Christmas will always have a special place in my heart
@@cappaculla You're right! I even knew where it was from, and obviously it's using samples. I totally spaced on it being a tracker tune
So glad we got normal clones this year after the debacle last year.
"It's terrible, but I'm havin' fun. Maybe that's just the eggnog." - LGR describes every office Christmas party
And why I finally had the good sense to skip mine this year!
I'm 66 years old and I've NEVER drank eggnog , it's either a pint of bitter or whisky for me ....
The secret ingredient is bourbon...
I'd drink to if I had to work in a office
Every office Christmas party I been to in my life had five different flavors of eggnog and five different brands of whiskey
Secret Santa is actually a brilliant idea and title for a stealth Christmas game
I actually liked that one. Reminds of the ganes I would play on Kongregate 10-15 years ago. Will check it out for sure
For some reason, it instantly reminded me of Sneak King. Maybe it's because it's free, maybe it's because it's a non-violent stealth game that somehow manages to be creepier than if violence _was_ involved, or maybe it's because I'm kinda weird.
There was a similar game about 15 years ago called Merry Gear Solid
so like reverse thief simulator?
I think I've played a similar game called Cave Story's Secret Santa last year

Thanks so much, I appreciate it!
When Clint said "I didn't know outside existed." I felt that.
Ah LGR Christmas videos, basically as defining of Christmas time as the old school Christmas cartoons at this point
...yikes, I guess I *have* been doing these since 2009 😫

The wacky Christmas antics of Clint & Clon't never fail to put me in the holiday spirit!
15:10 i lost it when the camera cut to you having christmas lights draped on you. this also made me really want some egg nog. great video as always!
"How tight can we go is the question." LGR, 2022.
That 3 yr old will always faintly remember that train game, and will spend a couple decades trying to find out what it was. I know... it happened to me as a kid with Cannon Fodder 2 lol. Took me 20 years to connect the dots.

LGR helped me out to find lode runner. I always had "blade" runner in mind and couldn't find it for obvious reasons.
this slammed me into the Christmas spirit way harder than i expected
Same, I'm not a huge Christmas person but these vids always make me smile lol
I like the slow transition from eggnog to spiked eggnog to "water" (straight alcohol). Also the various positioning of the string lights!
that model railway one was actually pretty cool considering how nice the placement / aligning rails etc was
the christmas clones just make me happy, always getting me into a real christmas mood
Just the way they go "ChristMAS!" and their goofy chuckling puts me in a festive mood too, no matter what else is going on.
Man, how do you keep inventing ideas for videos after all these years. The nostalgia is appreciated, I'm 37 and grew up with and owned the majority of the stuff you got your hands on.

(dejectedly) 'Yeah, he is.'
Brought an instant, goofy grin to my face!
Awesome video. 😎👍
I'm always happy to see LGR for the Christmas Season. 🎄 💯
I hope you have Merry Christmas LGR. 🎁
