When I saw the pounding this game was getting in other reviews I just knew Mack was going to have a field day with this one 🤣
last evening, watching itmejp do a sponsored stream of this game on twitch, his best comment was "who told me to play this on hard difficulty" because he died a couple times. lol
@@wibblyteapot It’s hard difficulty because getting the game and ai to work is impossible, the 3 blind mice have better vision and ai than this bunch lol
Never change, Mack. You are our treasure and last line of defense in unbiased and honest reviews.
Mack never disappoints with his rants.
He hates that X-ray stuff in all the shooters. I like to think of it like you are psychic who can sense people like the Jedi not X-ray vision like Superman. Your eyes are not seeing them through walls and floors but you are special person who can sense danger.
He kinda does. He often rants about stuff for the sake of renting about stuff.
I prefer him doing negative reviews coz he makes me chortle
@@weebsarecringe2102 Because the industry is worth ranting at. You know how much it has fell? The ones that know seem to be the loudest about it when they get going
Tbh everyone rants when it codes to this game
I paid £1 for Microsoft GamePass to play this game. Still feel robbed.
Hahaha!
Sorry I know it's not funny at all. Highly underrated comment.
got it for free w/my graphics card. Pretty pissed I woulda been happy with just about anything else lol.
@@akairibbon4658 yeah I’d rather have 70$ off the msrp of the gpu
lol
95 GB. Its Gigantic.
Mack's reviews are often more entertaining than the products from the so-called AAA games industry.
We should stop consuming and start creating.
That's the only upside of this shitstorm of PC ports being fed in the Gamer trough under the guise of AAA release standards (and price). I get to laugh my ass off watching Mack lose his shit over how ridiculous it got.
"Uninstalled perfectly" priceless!
The best part of a terrible game is getting to hear Mack’s glorious singing 😂
When Mack is already laughing at the description you know that will be a good one.
AAA gaming summed up: "At least the artists did their job"
There's nothing in a name anymore. The employees leave because of corporate culture but the names stay the same. I'd be surprised if there's more than a handful of people from the Dishonored and Prey days still working at Arkane Studios.
The founder.... Raphaël Colantonio leaved Arkane Studio in 2017, maybe this is why Arkane Austin is RIP now.
Only Arkane Lyon is not bad at the moment they made Deathloop last time.
There is an even easier way to deal with the vampires which I saw on another video. They cannot path around any largish object, like a table, large crate or a car. They will just stand looking a bit confused on the far side of it while you go make a cuppa or something.
Isn't that the lore? Garlic, Crosses,...large-ish objects like tables or large crates. 🤣.
Is that why most of the houses and buildings have all of their shit pushed to the sides of the room and are generally empty?
I dunno the best way I've found to deal with them is shutdown, uninstall, watch movie, brush teeth, go to bed.
The x ray vision rap has me rolling 🤣
Ladies and Gentlemen: The worst game of 2023 is here!
So far…
Starfield hasn't dropped yet, lol.
He hasn't played 'Blood Bowl 3' ... Definitely a contender
The competition is certainly fierce this year lol
Let us not forget "I just killed a game studio with my freaking mind!"
I'd rather play this than Forspoken 🤣 Not by much...but still
For me, Deathloop was the signal that told me Arkane was going downhill. And here we are. Thanks for the review Mack, I know it had to be painful.
Never saw the appeal of that game either....Prey and Dishonored were peak Arkane.
@@HandleNameIsStupid peak arcane for me was dark messiah
deathloop is overhated, especially after the patches since launch. It's not as much an immersive sim as the other games because it's primarily a narrative driven action shooter and not a stealth game. The default options for difficulty scaling and excessive hud elements definitely make the game too easy, but these are also easily fixed in the options menu. I don't think the game is perfect (color tiered loot 🤢) and the ai was pretty shit at launch, but it's miles better than Redfall.
The bell shots at the end put a massive smile on my face :)
People honestly tend to see studios TOO much as one single entity. A game company exists of dozens to hundreds of talented (or untalented) developers. The average AAA game developer tends to stay in one studio for 3-5 years MAX before moving on. This means the team that released Dishonored in 2012, and the (already different) team that released Dishonored 2 in 2016, are both VASTLY different than the studio in 2023. The talented people who were in the studio back in those years probably have nothing to do with this disaster.
What also really matters is one person running the show with a vision. That is what we had back in the day. Not the case with many of these companies. Even when the personal changes you still have that one person overseeing everything and with an uncompromising vision.
your laugh and sense of humour is an absolute delight love your roasts!
the most concerning part is how much apparent effort they put into making something terrible
"What's going on" That ending was just perfect! 🤣
"You vill eat ze bugs and be happy"
Holy shit guys, Mack is leveling up...
I lost it when he said that XD
@@hans_steiner Same, as well when he said "jumping around in the road like an absolute tit," Brits don't disappoint
Currently going through Dishonored 1&2, the painterly artstyle and immersive gameplay is so good. Truly bizarre to see Arkane drop off like this. Go back and watch your reviews on those games and basically everything you praise is completely gone in both Deathloop and Redfall
Those games were crap when they were released as well. Just look at Dishonored 1 looks like a damn PS2 game. It was the worse looking game of is time
@@SrChalice No they weren't mate but nice try
@@maxhayes387 the game its self wasnt crap though. Redfall on the other hand
Also Prey and Prey Mooncrash were so good...really can't believe Arkane made Redfall what it is 🤦🏽
Dishonored 1 was the best game they've made
I played with my son last night. Some of our bugs were: The sniper rifle has 4 lenses appear and you could not see your target, we both started floating and were able to fly around the map, the vampires got stuck in the ground and our guns were invisible.
I have a proposition as to why these modern games from these large developers are coming out in such mish-mashed and chaotic states: forced diversity. Diversity is the opposite of unity. These games are not coming out as unified products. They are coming out like Frankenstein monsters that are stitched together from various random parts.
Anyone else care to weigh in on this?
i'd say the unity thing is debatable, but diversity hiring is definitely part of the problem. i don't know if "diversity quotas" are really a thing but these companies seem to hire people who are perceived as "diverse" (and don't get me started on how wrong that entire idea is in the first place; it's very possible for a group of same race/same sex people to be more diverse than a group of mixed race/sex people in terms of class/background/views/personality) rather than people who have the actual skills and experience to make a good product. i also believe nepotism is at play too, these wokelords get in positions of power then bring in their mates who align with their politics rather than hiring people on merit
BINGO! They don't hire people, they cast them based on demographics. No talent or skill required, just check some boxes.
The intro and outro had me in stitches. Triple A gaming might be disappointing but these reviews never are 👍
I just looked at the characters and immediately went "nah."
The way he shoots that in game bell is his most funny thing to date
Such a shame that MS won't be able to bring this magic to ActivisionBlizzard. Two companies who deserve each other.
Don't speak to soon. If the EU green light it then you might just see it happening
Arkane Studios is owned by Microsoft?
@@MichaelShulski Microsoft own zenimax, and zenimax own arkane.
@@MichaelShulski Yes and Xbox and is going to end up dumping this studio like EA did with BioWare (creators of Anthem).
The UK just blocked it
It's a petty reason but the way they bastardized Black Hole Sun in their unskippable RUclips ads was a big turn off. So sick of these trailer "cover" songs where they have a Billie Eilish knock off lazily singing, basically whispering the words like she's falling asleep to Inception bwooommms to a simple piano tune that sounds nothing like the OG, not even the same chords. They just bank on people knowing the words and imbecilic consumers will register the words they're familiar with in their little brains and think "I remember the thing! Life was good then. Thing remind me of happy times."
You nailed it, I fucking hate that trope too.
The review I've been waiting for! I always go to Mack for a game review and for a laugh.
When Mack cant even get thru the intro with a straight face, you know it will be a delicious roast.
I’m gonna be hearing ‘bell ringing’ for a week arent I?
Sounds like another AAA game release in the 2020's.
Wait a year for it to be properly patched, by the time it's worth playing, it's got an 50% or more steam sale to it, while all the people who ordered on launch got absolutely scammed out of $80.
Another one to avoid like the plague! Thanks Mack!
Thanks mack
Unfortunately, games nowadays end up being like covid. No matter how much people dislike it or say they're gonna avoid it, they'll likely end up with it anyway. Muppets 🤣
Feels like an early alpha of the game where people are supposed to play test it to point out things that needs improvement.
I cant believe they are the same studio that made Prey and Dishonor
Why not? Dishonored was garbage on release. Y'all have memory problems
@@SrChalice dishonoured 2 had a terrible pc port as well
I made this mistake with Bioware and Blizzard back then.
Studios change alot in 5 years and you can bet that most of the good Devs in your favorite Studio are often long gone.
I liked the original 2006 Prey from Human Head Studios, before Bethesda bought the IP and cancelled Prey 2. It had some really innovative gameplay - portals before Portal, weird gravity walkways which made for interesting 3d space fights where up became down or sideways. A forgotten gem.
How sassy is that one character. So sassy! Did she sass those vampires with her sass?
She sassed the shit out of them.
She lectured them on Critical Race Theory until they died of boredom.
"uninstalled perfectly"
Best feature
At least you made me laugh because otherwise we should be crying. I don't even bother with "AAA" games anymore
Just saw one review on RUclips who rated it 8.5 out of 10... I'm not joking when I say this but the reviewer actually did a shout out to "Bethesda Publishing" for giving him access to exclusive music from the game for the review video...
He then says "Yeah the game is locked to 30fps but its a smooth 30fps..."
I've *NEVER* seen such a blatantly shill review and worst of all the kids in the comments are lapping it up.
xD
what's funny is I heard Redflag or Redfail to describe this game that it didn't dawn on me you could also say "Dreadful" and I started laughing cause it's so obvious
I really didnt think it could ever be this bad... I really didnt.
Midnight Mass came to mind when I initially heard about it
@@ShawnKavanagh I loved Midnight Mass.
They cut every corner in the name of greed and laziness, then release it and proceed to cut their own throats too. Bravo
The enemies act so nonchalantly that I kept mistaking them as your allies XD
I feel like I’m usually pretty good at finding the fun in games. Even if it’s bad I can usually squeeze a few hours of fun even just messing with the AI or something. Not this game. There is no fun to be had here
"someone will find them, doesn't have to be me" that's straight up a lifted asset from Skyrim iirc.
Redfall could've been a co-op combination of Dishonored and 30 Days of night. Like this...if it was free, it would be disappointing, but the price just makes it insulting - like many AAA releases these days.
Mack needs a Soundcloud or an iTunes or something so we can listen to these bangers that he makes for reviews.
This could easily pass as a Back 4 Blood mod.
No, this can't be Arcane. I refuse. Shoot me the bell harder Mac.
I love the way that Devs these days release fully fleashed out games. It's a real strong suit of theirs.... Fucking hell, this looks woeful.
The aimbot-skill killed me, was laughing out loud. It's just sad at this point
The X-ray vision song will never not make me laugh
I was just waiting for the Xray Vision song
Honestly the one thing I was looking forward to about this game was Mac's review, and it delivered! I'm glad the game came out so that I could get the laugh's that this review gave me. I dont bother buying games anymore, I just watch these reviews as they are literally more fun than the games!!!
We've fallen a long way since Arx Fatalis, Dishonered, and Prey. It makes me sad to see Arkane devolve into this garbage. I lost faith after I saw them making Deathloop but this is next level dumpster tier by the looks of it. The Arkane we knew no longer exists. They were the last AAA studio that I even had any interest in. Imagine, if we'd have had a Prey 2 instead of this trite.
I am a massive fan of Arkane games. Loved all Dishonored games for their depth and very particular attention to detail. They actually innovated in Dishonored 2 and Prey! This same studio who made this piece of shit made PREY. It's unbelievable. I let Deathloop off my radar for a while due to the fact it was very much a different style of game, but I learned to love the invasions, the amount of clues and such, it played out very well when you see it as a different style of game that Arkane makes. But Redfall? It's almost unplayable.
Arkane dropped the ball, and they really need to pull their finger out of their arses if they want to sell a good game, because god forbid they release sequels to Dishonored or Prey in this state.
I already knew that it's foolishness to preorder games but this pathetic £83 offering should put everybody off for life.
The people responsible for releasing this game in this state (on both sides of the fence - execs and developers) have damaged the entire gaming industry.
Well done 👍
Thank God for you Mack. Maybe this will finally turn the tide of people pre ordering
PS5 players should count themselves lucky to not have this pile of trash on their console.
Thank you for always giving me a good laugh when I'm having a crap day Mack! 😆
That intro killed me 😂 "dreadful" I mean umm "redfall"
I don't get how AI has gotten so much worse since the 2000s
I love how he rings the megabell near the end!
He couldn't even get through the words the words! I love this guy!
Who else got a Redfall ad before this review/massacre?
The game is absolutely fine, I’d even say it’s great! Don’t understand this hate it’s getting, personally it’s probably my favourite Arkane game!
- Said no one, ever.
Well, I predicted this game to be shit the first time I heard about it some 8 months ago or so. But must all AAA titles be bad in 2023? And I choose to answer my own question: Yes, it is the law.
This game looks like it was made to launder money
These poor development studios... Another one bits the dust. They've seemingly lost all their incredible talent. Whoever is responsible for creating Dark Messiah, Dishonoured, & Prey... They have obviously moved on. What a f*cking shame because I loved so many of the games they made. Deathloop was a flop but for Arkane this was the nail in the coffin. (Drum sound effect)
Most developers from Arkane moved to aother studio that made Weird West ;-)
Yep - Arkane is dead...
REDFAIL, is it worth a review? No, but I needed to laugh today, thanks Mack!
WTF happened with Arkane? Dishonored series and Prey were freaking top tier gamers and one of the best immersive sims ever. How then this travesty happened? I know Deathloop was pretty piss poor, but this one is simply completely abysmal
This better have a thousand bell rings 😭
7:50 That's just like Diablo 4, I've never purchased anything from any of the shopkeepers weapon or armor.
You know that gaming is in a sad state when every new AAA game coming out is broken/terrible and that the only good games are remasters/remakes of old games (except last of us).
And except GTA Definitive edition
back to the Metro game's
Doubt Spider-Man 2 will be terrible so there's that to look forward to at least.
Dead space, hifi rush, resident evil 4, atomic heart and dead Island 2???
@@hawken796 did you read my entire comment ?
This makes Cyberpunk look the bollocks. At least they made a f*cking effort....Jesus Christ as a child of the 80's and 90's who was only playing Road Rash on a friends home arcade the other day this is f*cking depressing. Things have regressed not improved, but that's greed for you.
I hope this studio gets the forspoken treatment and is having the devs going into other studios holy shit thats bad.
bugthesda has passed beyond meme into canonical doctrinal certainty
That's shocking. I thought the characters being cringy would be the worst part but it looks like Arkane are trying to speedrun great to terrible dev any%.
Mack looks like the Worst game of the Year bin is already full. And it's only the start of May. 🤣🤣🤣
Don't worry guys, DLC will fix it 😂
I can't believe the same studio that gave us Dishonored and Prey made this.
Arkane used to be one of my favorite studios :(
Been waiting for this one! Way to rip them a new one, this is utterly unacceptable.
Mac, whatever you do never, ever change
Always a good vid if it starts with "dreadfullll" 🤣
They even put a bell in the game for you to ring, they knew what was coming xD
On the plus side, everyone who paid money for this game got what they deserved
Sad but true!
Why buy any game at day one? ;-)
Nothings changed since Fallout76 (and long before that). Bethesda are a garbage publisher. They're more interested in suing any one else who puts the word "scrolls" in their game name than letting their studios put time and effort into releasing quality titles. And micro$oft have done nothing to improve that since buying them.
This is pretty insane. I haven’t seen a single good review of this game whatsoever. They had to know it was bad before they released it right?
When gaming rants are more entertaining than actual games. I don't even play video games anymore.
At least games like this make for very entertaining reviews
The good things:
- The town design
- The stake launcher as a weapon concept
The bad things:
- Optimization
- Gameplay
- No matchmaking
- Empty town
- Dumb AI at all levels
- No recoil
This game screams mid shit worth 20$
Edit: Wait snipers raven does something? XD Mine is so bugged I never got any enemy tagged XD
The remakes and indies are carrying this generation! And people get upset when I say I miss the days of gaming when it wasn't MAINSTREAM😏
Creativity died when it went mainstream.
@@misanthropicattackhelicopt4148 Lack of creativity and greed!
@@misanthropicattackhelicopt4148 they started aiming games at dumb normies who lap up anything.
Starfield release is going to be a riot too. Get the beer and pretzels ready boys.
12:20 Almost pissed myself laughing...
This is the 2023 new Anthem. Wow gaming is pretty much done. I feel bad for those who did not experience gaming back in the late 90s early 2000s.
I'm working a game, alone, in early access and I get so much hate for my game which isnt even done, but games like this, cyber punk and the new starwars comes out with an unlimited budget, not in early access and sells millions. This is why these large companies will continue to do this. And WTF, day one patches, really you couldn't take the time to finish your game.
It's shocking how much crap EA games get.
@@GangsterFrankensteinComputer I know, they are getting as bad as pharmaceutical companies. I remember the days when a game needed to be on point before release cause there were no day one patches or even updates. Its like developers are like, f it we can just spend the next year or so fixing all the crap we didn't have time or care to fix all while charging us full price, when games now a days, nearly all should be in early access and half price since we are becoming game testers. Even in my early game making days I made some crappy games, but they were playable.
It's painfully difficult to resist leaving a snarky comment about blue haired quota hires in situations like this.
Easily the best review this year 😅
I honestly think the people that say they're "enjoying" this game and "don't see what the issue is" are actually just running and gunning as fast as they can without stopping to see how godawful the AI and some of the graphics and world design actually is. They're just going down the checklist and finding it "fun." Those people are fucking ruining gaming.
Have not seen anyone having fun?! Who?
@@pogtuber5146 Facebook posts? Lol, what is this 2009?
Just people trying to justify buying it. You’ll always get them idiots.
The gaming industry is getting ridiculous, AAA games are a joke. Just rush the game out and fix it later.
