Is it overpriced? Yes. Is it barely even a new game? Yes. Do I love it and have already gotten 150 hours of fun out of it and enjoyed it more than most AAA games? Also yes.
16:50 The reason the aliens cant make a dialogue is because, they did a time travel fuck up which wiped themselves out of the future so if the aliens that traveled back to the past dont fix it while they are there it will paradox and they dont exist.
Honestly? I think there could be an "easy" fix here, if the Primers were optimal, logical and (perhaps) moral. As long as humans *appear* extinct to the Primers of the future, the Primers will time travel to the past. Alien ultimatum could go like this: "Your kind became extinct. In our hopes of ^truth^witnessing^truth^ / *false*saving*false* you, we have accidentally time paradoxed you into surviving at the cost of our own extinction. If you remain on Earth, we will worse than die: we will disappear along all our culture, knowledge and history. Only one solution remains.: We will transport you to slightly further from our current future, in which you were considered extinct. The extinction event that claimed humanity will never pass, but you will not be here, thus appear extinct. Ergo, we will go back in time to save you. Ergo, we will commit to what would've been time paradox. Your people will survive, and so will ours."
"that's so dumb" I think you missed the point of the things being cranes, and there not being a massive enemy that the thing would even be useful against. It's like going to use a digger only to find out the guy that has the keys is out sick.
This game is such a retread of the previous game someone made a sub-10MB (that's megabyte, not gigabyte) mod that lets you play all of EDF5's missions in EDF6.
And the reason why the mod took so little space is because all the code and assets used to create all 110 missions of the EDF5 campaign still exists inside EDF6 and is locked away by a few boolean variables
I have to say, this video was worth watching just to see your reaction to "What's actually going on." Because yes, nuking Mars had consequences, and no Sseth didn't mention we did it until this point, but you don't question it for a second, because EDF 6 (Well, 9) is that crazy.
What the hell kind of plot and lorebuilding is this? This time paradox narrative and all these plot points involving all these time paradoxes retroactively retconning all the games stories and missions is so brain rottenly contradicting and antithetical with no consistency stacking on top of each other on a giant vile pile of paradoxes that I understand Warp time travel, Elder Scrolls Dragon Breaks, Blazblue, Doctor Who time events, and Fate Grand Order time physics silly foolishness more then I do Earth Defense Force's. Somebody get the Ordo Chronos, Timelords, and Xeelee to fix this world's Time loop madness dimension physics because even Chaos cannot time travel this many times even they have rules which they must and will abide within. I'm sure Hermaeus Mora would erase this from his memories in some high secured coffer
The thing about EDF is that. you're not supposed to take the story and its logic seriously. its dumb B movie levels of funny stupid that you just go along with it. It doesn't have to be amazing. it has to be fun.
It's actually easier to understand, it's just that Seth didn't understand it.(Other than the probability stuff being a standin for player agency) You are in timeline A and so is the professor. When the aliens jump back you're sent to timeline B, but the professor remains in timeline A gets sent back to the beginning of timeline B when they hit the ring and is with you when you when you enter timeline B but never realized that he's one jump ahead. There is also an effect that is so subtle that nobody links it together. A song that indicates a paradox in progress and an effect that shows when there is a savere breakage in time. (It's the color purple if you are wondering) Technically I would say that time chose the player characters as the champions every time the aliens jumped back.
@@thewoodentechnician3529 I wouldn't put it past Sseth to understand it perfectly and act like he doesn't in the video, just to annoy the two people who care enough to know how it works.
6 was decent. Far better than Iron rain. I felt it lacking compared to 5. It didn't have the camp and cheese of the previous games. Also I have 200 hours in EDF5 so I recognized all the copy and pasting. There is a LOT of it, I don't care if it is because of the plot, there is still so much of it.

Apparently the entirety of EDF5 is hidden in the code and can be unlocked with cheats...
@@RipOffProductionsLLC I heard you unlock it by changing one single line of code which some modder already did
@@dean_l33 This isn't spaghetti code anymore, it's lasagne code.

The EDF deploys
To save our mother Earth from any alien attack!
From vicious giant insects who have once again come back!
22:40 last game you killed god, now, you erase the enemy from existence by killing Time Paradox God.
It's pure unadulterated crack to my schizophrenic soul.
I will be so disappointed if the next EDF game is not EDF 10.
When I saw the pieces crash into the skyline in the final boss fight I thought “that’s not going to have consequences in the future”
EDF X
The EDF 10 begins now
16:50 Because the aliens are there to kill everyone. Everyone who DID try to open a dialogue with the aliens died immediately after.
Just like the one chick who was like 'we engage in dialog!'
Yeah she died to a drone attack shortly after
EDF 6 is Helldivers made in Japan.
One of the reviews of all time for one of the games of all time!

So…the writers of this game looked at Edge of Tomorrow and said: Yeah, we can do that.
I do not know what you mean. Obviously the only person with codes is a fucking janitor.
I can put up with Stupidity, I can put up with a lot of stupidity. Sseth's video broke me.
Japanese games plot can be two things, best most emotionally driven story games, or bunch of Ork Maks elevated on spore Squig in a shed making a game.

I love the dumb plot line of this franchise
Cities: Skylines had a plot?
EDF was written by Orks and I love it!
I'm pretty sure the skull thing was from a TV show. Entirely fake, to put it simply.
Can you react to this video Old Man Reacts "The Earth Defense Force 5 Experience" by CornHolePatrol? It's pretty funny.
I second this. I recommend Cornholepatrol’s videos anywhere I can because they’re damn good.

I am aware of Earth Defense Force's looney tunes type of goofiness but this kind of time paradox stuff goes way overboard.

Sadly it have epic requirement to play
The ONLY reason I'm happy to be playing the p5 version.
Epic requirements on Steam were a software error and have been fixed/removed
