Mirrors Edge is a vital piece of my childhood. some of my first vids on this platform was me pointing my phone camera at my Tv while stacked on some books playing this game (they are private now). i miss its gameplay, aesthetic, and just overall feel. it wasnt perfect, but it knew what it wanted to be and did it pretty damn well. thank you for not letting this game fall into obscurity.
I loved Mirror's Edge as a kid too even though I was terrible at it haha! That reminds me I used to do the same but to record Minecraft on Xbox 360 gameplay lmao. I'll hold onto the hope that someday we'll get another. Thanks for watching!
I thought this was a channel with like 500.000 subscribers when i watched it because of the general quality. Just finished and saw that wasnt the case. Great vid dude, subbed.
It wasn't just the gameplay, the atmosphere, the art, the story it was also the music And Solarfields knocked it out of the park, as did Lisa Miskovsky with the offical theme. That 4 note piano just hits me in the feels and takes me back to when i first played the original
6:07 I thought you were going to go through the pipe lol, it's known to be very buggy Anyways, between nostalgia and the speedrunning time I've had on this game (300h~), I like your video. Although you were maybe a bit to ledatory, it's nice seeing content still being made 16 years later
Remember: EA cancelled Star Wars Project Ragtag because ‘no one plays single player’. Only for their Fallen Order projections to be blown out the water when that game sold like hotcakes. A game like 2042 will eventually fade. An experience like Mirror’s Edge though will stand the test of time with the best of gaming & inspire players, just like it did back in 2008. Excellent video!
Currently struggling to platinum it and it's no masterpiece, it's a clunky, frustrating, glitchy mess, do the same thing exactly a hundred times and every time it performs differently, suddenly a wallrun you had no trouble pulling off refuses to work, faith refuses to grab things randomly, she glitches over or through things she never should, dies from tiny falls, slows down for no reason, disarms are practically impossible on armoured enemies making the shard speedrun impossible. Never should have had enemies or combat. Used to love it back in the day but it's trash now.
@@scottneil1187 It’s got issues, but in spite of those problems? It’s still an incredible and unique experience. So whatever shortcomings I experienced; I’m willing to look past them and still appreciate the game as a whole. I’d love to see it remastered one day.
Nice video! This game looks cool. Definitely looks fun to try out some parkour moves, love the concept. Thanks for the rec! Keep making videos I love ‘em!
Mirrors Edge Catalyst is literally one of the favorite games of all times and I’m so happy I have the Disc for it as I can always just pick up an play it.
I just wish they would continue the story in some other medium. Like a comic book or something. We really have to get these companies to finish their damn stories. As a fan of the original, while I was excited for Catalyst, I was bummed out that it was a prequel and not a sequel. There were 7 years between the first and 2nd game and now it's been 8 years since the 2nd, so it's pretty obvious we're not getting a 3rd. The least they could do is tie up the story in a comic book lol.
catalyst should have maintained the original art style for game and cutscenes. that alone would be amazing. biggest flaw is the polution that is the hud.
Love this game. There have been some games trying to include parkour (dying light..), but none felt so good. It's extremely disappointing that this game didn't change the movement in any other other game. At the time Mirror's edge came out I felt like it's a start of something new. That maybe from now on we will have this kind of movement system in FPS games. Similar disappointment like the playing games with great physics and then seeing new games having almost no real physics implemented.
Unpopular opinion, but i liked MEC a whole lot better than the first game. It made an impact in my life going forward as well as the aesthetics and the ambience just captivated me completely.
Instead of hoping for another mirror's Edge game you should hope for it to become an entire flourishing genre. Cyberpunk has pretty good Mirror's Edge parkour, only missing wall running and a 180 or 90 turn button.
If dice is focused on multiplayer games why not? mirror's edge online where you can run around on buildings, in alleys, or on the streets, with friends and strangers, and you can challenge them to races or fights like a better version of the catalyst combat, and maybe a battle Royale but it's more like fall guys instead of Fortnite, and maybe a character customization
They already have worldwide leaderboards in the second one for races… there’s so many unnecessary side missions but with some additional story and online features…. Bro, they already met the sales quota for that trash of a Part 2 (that’s story’s main character has a complete different story to the firsts…but had the same name??)
Catalyst was one of the biggest disappointments in gaming for me. While it wasn't terrible on it's own it felt like a downgrade in almost every real respect to the original. Mirrors edge 1 was lightning in a bottle and an experience im still trying to chase to this day.
I haven't played much of catalyst but from what I remember that sounds about right. I don't think we'll ever get another game as good or better than the original. Thanks for watching!
Why’d you not talk abt the second one, it’s a massive upgrade from the first, the story is better, the characters are better, the combat is WAYY better and there’s a lot more parkour possibilities and unlocks, stuff like grapple hooks and etc
Mirror's edge is part of the soul of anyone that played it.
True!

That's a great point! Mirrors edge really is a timeless masterpiece while bf2042 is... Well bf2042 haha. Thanks for watching!

Really good video man! keep it up.
Thank you so much!
Hey! Keep this quality of content, then I will be able to say "I was here on the first 1000" when you hit a million
Thank you so much! That would be a dream come true for me haha. I'm glad you enjoy it!
Nice video! This game looks cool. Definitely looks fun to try out some parkour moves, love the concept. Thanks for the rec! Keep making videos I love ‘em!
Thank you! Glad u enjoy
Great video. You're gonna be big homie
Ay I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
I could be wrong. But I think Mirror's Edge Catalyst is actually a reboot.
Oh damn you're right my bad. Thanks for letting me know!
I am so surprised that you don’t have more subscribers, I thought I was watching a video with more than 100k views wth
Maybe one day haha. But for now I'm just enjoying making these videos. Thank you for watching!
man i have so many good memories with Mirror's Edge. It's nostialgic for me. I love it.
Same! It's a masterpiece fr
Absolutely loved both games and it's a travesty that we've yet to see the third game. Literally two of my favourite games.
This game probably shaped how I actually play shooters because I usually get off a few shots and just run away
mirrors edge was the best aesthetic ever created
ME is one of my faves man, gl with video generation!
I had to hopes as a gamer. (1) The revival of Silent Hill. Check. (2) A third Mirror's Edge entry. I guess we'll have to wait and see
Mirrors Edge Catalyst is literally one of the favorite games of all times and I’m so happy I have the Disc for it as I can always just pick up an play it.
That's awesome! I still have the 360 disk for the original mirrors edge and it's one of my prized possessions lmao
Surprised you didn't add gameplay footage at the end or mention the soundtrack!
Damn man, it's been my fav game since I was a kid
It's definitely up there for me too. Thanks for watching!
I surely hope we get another game. Catalyst is an amazing game.
I hope so too! Thanks for watching!

Mirrors edge catalyst was one the best parkour games I've ever played andthe story was not bad at all really sucks they're not continuing the series 😢
the series as a whole has so much potential it really does suck that dice is focusing on BF instead
Love this game. There have been some games trying to include parkour (dying light..), but none felt so good.

That's totally fair I love when a game makes that kind of impact!
i don't hate clunky combat since it's not a shooter game. it feels like im using a gun with a super skinny parkour runner
Try doing the shard speedrun then, combat makes it impossible due to the disarm never working. Should never have had enemies.
Instead of hoping for another mirror's Edge game you should hope for it to become an entire flourishing genre. Cyberpunk has pretty good Mirror's Edge parkour, only missing wall running and a 180 or 90 turn button.
play this game with linkin park meteora in the background.
the first 3 notes from the theme song Still Alive remind me of linkin park.
If dice is focused on multiplayer games why not? mirror's edge online where you can run around on buildings, in alleys, or on the streets, with friends and strangers, and you can challenge them to races or fights like a better version of the catalyst combat, and maybe a battle Royale but it's more like fall guys instead of Fortnite, and maybe a character customization
If they’re clearly focused more on online games.. THEN WHY DONT THEY MAKE MIRRORS EDGE AN ONLINE GAME??
They already have worldwide leaderboards in the second one for races… there’s so many unnecessary side missions but with some additional story and online features…. Bro, they already met the sales quota for that trash of a Part 2 (that’s story’s main character has a complete different story to the firsts…but had the same name??)
Obligatory "Mirror's Edge Catalyst is not a sequel" comment.
lmfao
dice game need to pay attention to the audience and not the money
Catalyst was one of the biggest disappointments in gaming for me. While it wasn't terrible on it's own it felt like a downgrade in almost every real respect to the original. Mirrors edge 1 was lightning in a bottle and an experience im still trying to chase to this day.

mirrors edge catalyst is a reboot , what a load of bullshit they did.
first game was awesome.
modders should create their own mirrors egde.
Why’d you not talk abt the second one, it’s a massive upgrade from the first, the story is better, the characters are better, the combat is WAYY better and there’s a lot more parkour possibilities and unlocks, stuff like grapple hooks and etc
Story is also a lot longer and the game offers a lot more even after you finish the main story
Because it's damned awful.
@@scottneil1187 how, I did enjoy the first one more ngl but the second 1 still deserves respect imo
I've tagged EA in X with #MirrorsEdge3. Can anyone help pls?
I just play Dying light 2
I had to hopes as a gamer. (1) The revival of Silent Hill. Check. (2) A third Mirror's Edge entry. I guess we'll have to wait and see
