19:02 those voices aren't AI, they're just default text-to-speech voices in Streamlabs. Specifically, the voices of Brian, Justin, and Joey, in that order. I think it's interesting that Brian is the voice that's selected by default if you don't change your settings and is also the first voice to show up in their video.
So, how do you know with certainty that the voices provided by Streamlabs never used any machine learning under the hood? As far as I know, those voices were developed by IVONA, which was later bought by Amazon and turned into Amazon Polly. The Amazon site on Polly states: "How it works ... Amazon Polly uses deep learning technologies to synthesize natural-sounding human speech" I am not sure whether this applies to the original IVONA voices, though.
@@Alice_Fumo I mean, Elite Dangerous uses IVONA Voices. Granted the IVONA Voices are for the COVAS, not to fake voice chat in a Trailer. For instance the default Cockpit Voice Assistant uses IVONA 2 Amy with a synthetic distortion filter on top of it.
You should know by now all these RUclips videos essayist do the absolute minimum. It's extremely rare to find one that isn't half ass, this is one is in fact half ass
So many awful devs love to switch to Unreal mid development. Like they don't even realise they're throwing everything out and starting again with a fraction of the development time and all the money and resources they used up to that point wasted.
my friend talked about this game to me and said "its the day before" and i was genuinely confused because i asked for the games *name*, not when it shut down fucking amazing in hindsight
They basically begged the public to make the game for them for free. They were hoping a bunch of dorks would just jump in and start improving things, and then they could profit off their great work.
@@ElyseonNaw, the Paradox model is to make live service games and not tell anyone that they’re making live service games. Why do you think Stellaris has about 14 dlcs?
Tangential note: "Tasty Makeover" is, more than likely, all of those things. I've played games that looked pretty much exactly like that, with home decorating, match-3 puzzles, and dating sim elements all kind of mushed together haphazardly.
as someone who actually plays their hidden object game (seeker's notes), they really do All of it. There's a match 3 location, a connect one, memory card game, and of course hidden objects.
Off the bat, I was trying to tie Sly Cooper into it somehow - fuck was I excited. AC was my second thought, the furniture placement later on confirmed.
Can I come in to make a comment that APB was a game I put 3k hours into and it was amazing. It was rereleased shortly after by another company and it did well under them. It’s one of the most iconic games in my life and defines like 6 years of it. The servers are still up, there’s still a playerbase (though was admittedly hit hard in the last few years in the face of actual GTA MMO)
That's APB Reloaded, not the original. I tried it over a decade ago and I found it to be terribly p2w + some PvP missions had stupid exploits. Struck me as a greedy game on life support. I heard the original wasn't like this and I still think it's a very nice concept.
the original was actually okay i thought, i played it in beta way back when. it wasn't the best thing i ever played and it defeintely didnt seem to have required its absolutely huge budget. but it was decent @@fonesrphunny7242
Epic Mickey... just mentioning that name brings me back to high school and the last time I let pre-release articles convince me to pre-order something.

My bf got me into your channel based on the OSRS content but I'm loving this pivot into MMOs as a whole it's v entertaining and has even tempted me into trying out non OSRS ones so ty for that! Well done on animating number 34 btw. rly impressive stuff
my person favorite thing about the day before was from the youtube stream by Kaif, who ended up finding a way to dupe ammo and money. This allowed them to just go into the world with the best gear, also the first hour of "gameplay" was sitting in the menu trying to get into a server.
apb reloaded was amazing with friends! we fucked around on that game for hours, but we wouldn't do any missions. we'd drive around in trash trucks just hauling ass, then run over as many other players as we could. we also would take busses and trash trucks and bring them to the longest road in the game, and just drive into each other like jousting and witness the remaining explosion. that game was a lot of fun.
Great content bud, keep it up and your channel will def make it. Im from Northern NJ 5 minutes from the GWB and noticed the city in the background of your vid, Im almost positive you probably live less than 15 minutes from me. Small world. I wish you lots of luck man! (I could also be completely incorrect and that wasn't NYC in the background lol)
I love Idyl videos because I get to go down rabbit holes and learn weird things, but simultaneously spend 36 minutes watching a video I have no idea what happened during. 11/10, would watch again
I was going to comment on this video sooner but I had to completely rebuild the engine my comment was running off of first. Sorry for the delays, everybody!
I think you’re thinking of Black Ops 4, Black Ops 3 was actually amazing and has single handedly supported the zombies modding community for like 10 years now
I'm honestly surprised you didnt blew up yet. The whole shift to becoming the President of MMO is just so good. One day asmon is gonn react to one of your vids and you deserve it. Keep it up man.
I had a friend who bought APB on it's launch, and paid for 5 years of subscription time up front. Only for the game to get shut down within a couple months, at most. He was pissed. I contacted him recently, only to learn he also pre-ordered The Day Before, with plans to buy 5 years of subscription time immediately if it had a subscription model. He clearly never learned the lesson.
Once Human. People have been saying that it’s what TDB promised. It even already has a playable beta. Though I think it might’ve ended recently, it still has way more than TDB ever had
Unironically love the deranged rabbit hole about NicoRico123 when the username is clearly NicoRico23. Your content is chaotic and I love it, never change.
Matrix Online had similar issues when it was launched and was also why it died. IE, It really was released too early. It had game breaking bugs that where reported in beta but where not fixed before launch, ect... Same thing for another MMO called Vanguard and to a similar degree Warhammer Online also went that way. ( Warhammer Online lived a little longer than the other two but still died out. ) Its something that makes me feel sad a bit because all of the ones I mentioned here where really fun games. They all had huge potential but the ball was dropped. *EDIT* I should mention that the "similar issues" is aimed at APB
My man, huge props every song choice and transition accentuate your points and cadence incredibly well, I'm not sure if that's all you or if you have an editor in this but huge ups on the various d
To be fair, I believe IGN was _also_ the thing that infamously gave a game a 7/10 rating because it had "too much water", so I'm not sure you should be using them as a frame of reference for how bad the reception for the game was.
"You mad it to the end if the video. This was kind of a long one so that's conerning" Bro I've watched every one of Quinton reviews multi hour videos on nickelodeon sitcoms A little over a half hour doesn't qualify as a long video to me anymore
So that happened... I don't know why I've been so interested in this dumpster fire of a game but I've been hooked. Also digging all the MMO content btw.
I hope someone has informed you that the 'greedy raccoon boss' thing is talking about Tom Nook. He's saying the base building would be similar to Animal Crossing.
your confusion from the cost of witcher 3 and APB comes from inflation. that 100 mil back then is a decent bit more than the 80 mil from witcher 3 time.
Yaknow, I think that a game dev company that doesn’t know that Tom Nook is a Tanuki is a flag to begin with. Not giving a piss about other games/genres/ect shows a lack of caring about the rest of the industry.
18:25 Why exactly was that employee evicted? Since not paying rent is easily the most common reason and otherwise it would have to be either that person being extremely loud / violent / etc. (rather unlikely) this very much brings into question about how much this employee earns working for Fntastic. Maybe the so called employees are in fact volunteers as well and the employee was evicted cause they had no money to pay rent, being forced to work for free on The Day Before rather than working a job that would allow them to actually pay rent.
this has been a fascinating video. I have played the day before before (heh) because I like to try random apps from the play store on a rooted phone with security turned off. Also you look like Brad Jones. (compliment)
Callum Upton called it a scam well before it launched and people called him a fool. People just can't comprehend that something might be too good and will fight tooth and nail to say otherwise
Does the analogy really work with APB though? I know APB got relaunched as a Free to Play MMO and I believe APB is still around today. I don't think The Day Before is coming back at all.

Didn't they switch versions of unreal? which makes less sense to me if I'm honest.
DNF. Nobody learns.
so, that happened... now im starting my journey of creating a studio + game that will last 72h, wish me luck!

Ah yes, the Bethesda model.
Or Paradox.
Worked for Bethdesa…but they had prexisting clout to work off
@@ElyseonNaw, the Paradox model is to make live service games and not tell anyone that they’re making live service games. Why do you think Stellaris has about 14 dlcs?
I think Bethesda games are at least good without any mods. Buggy, but good. There was nothing good at all whatsoever about this “MMO”

It kills me inside that Fntastic's actual Twitter account responded to criticism of their game with, and I quote, "shit happens".
4:44 they were talking about animal crossing in case no one ever answered you about what they meant
Ohh, that kind of boss...
Off the bat, I was trying to tie Sly Cooper into it somehow - fuck was I excited.
AC was my second thought, the furniture placement later on confirmed.
Love that you added an imaginary 1 before 23 in his username every time
Wow, this video ran for over 1/200th the entire duration of the MMO it's about.
The "greedy raccoon boss" reference could be either Animal Crossing or Project Zomboid, and it's wild that either is equally likely.

I burst out laughing at the "PP got money" part, good lord that caught me off guard, lmao

The production value on that 34 animation is through the roof.

you should be there's a picture of you hidden somewhere in the video see if you can find it!
I like those different shots of you sitting outside and behind the greenscreen. Nice and dynamic! Must have been horrible to be outside, so bright.
For fuck's sake, Tom Nook is not greedy, and he's not a raccoon. He gives you a house for free and lets you pay it off when you feel like it.
I approve of your use of the Baldurs Gate 3 soundtrack

You call this a long one but this was gobsmacking and entertaining in how you put it together. Like to the point of "Awh darn, I reached the end?".
I like that MMO you created and have up on the screen behind you
Great video to listen to while vacuuming. Thanks Idyl
Yaknow, I think that a game dev company that doesn’t know that Tom Nook is a Tanuki is a flag to begin with. Not giving a piss about other games/genres/ect shows a lack of caring about the rest of the industry.
Tanuki are called "raccoon dogs" by some people, so they could've just misremembered what to call him.
alright that might be a bit of a stretch lmao.
I loved APB Reloaded and the original did have some cool tech behind it. Not a great game but was fun for me as a kid.
So, that happened to be the best review of that dungpile I’ve seen so far, kudos sir 🙌
Really enjoyable 36min of playing runescape. thanks Idyl
My favorite part of the video was that super neat animation you did of the number 34
Great video. Very J1mmy energy that I love. The state of games is dire rn.
The state of games is honestly both at the very best it's ever been and the very worst it's ever been

Soooo that happened and now PP Got money will be my ringtone
