In a game market starved from stealth games, intravenous is among the few games that I find fun. It doesn't help that in a lot of stealth games, dynamic lighting never gets used. Game devs haven't played enough night time hide and seek as kids, being invisible in plain sight can be fun.
When I was like ten or so I played hide and seek with a friend, it was late at night so in one round I had this crazy idea of just laying down in this small, dark spot. She couldn't find me until she surrendered. That rush of adrenalin every time she went near me but didn't see me was amazing, and I've only felt like that again when playing Intravenous. (Ok maybe it's not that great but still)
@@adlibbed2138 if you read the conversations between Gideon and anonymous you’ll find out that you were working for Jacob or Theo. The two guys that Gideon is meant to coerce into working for Jacob in this game are found (and killed) by Steve in the full game. Gideon already didn’t respect sean, so I’d imagine it didn’t take much to kidnap him. Unfortunately for Gideon, Steve found a liking for Sean
Damn bro I want a PVE game like this but tarkov or mercenary like extraction mission gameplay and incoporated with procedural generated maps seed. The more sandbox it is the better. I know about zero sievert but the characters are way too miniature. I want the sort of theme this game brings.
im glad we could both agree because that trailer is like SO out of date and does not represent the sheer anger this game can cause you, but its also just out of date!@@GoldMinerMac
@@GoldMinerMac i absolutely agree with spivel, you should without a doubt play exanima, its a game that changed my view on gaming as a whole. it was a joy to experience and i would kill to play it for the first time again though the controls are unintuitive it is worth the learning curve 1000 fold
I have a little disappointment too: you didn't show how explosives work and look. Or if you didn't even tried them, then try: frag grenade, mine. They feel even cooler than shooting, especially when you lure enemies by gunshots, throw grenade from a shadows and then.........BAM. Corpses, door rubble, completely broken light sources, terror of others who find this bloodshed. Also game has reverse horror gamemode where you choose both, but none stealth and massacre. Not crawl around cleaning whole map by just knife and taser, not begin mass shooting, but let enemies run around dark map at gunshot sounds just to find nobody, but corpses of their comrades, grenade between legs or a single shot that lands at head of one of them out of nowhere to make them run at sounds and find nobody once again.
@@GoldMinerMac im saying it because i just dont need it, and only thing it does it slowing everything down letting you think more. For me it only makes screen looks cool.

3:00 sneak on the ground worked in intravenous 1 too, but there is no indicator there (it just works)
hello mac, i like your videos keep it up

I feel like I was learning me towards buying the game from the review but your comment pushed me the rest of the way and convinced me
Good video Mac, keep it up.
calling it, Gideon's crew will be the bad guys in IV2
Hopefully. Maybe we will get boss fights or something.
That'd be amazing @@GoldMinerMac

Bro play hotline Miami if you think the action is hard in this game
You should check out my review of it. The second one was a bit harder to beat tbh.
I have full combo'd every level in hotline miami 2 at least once and the action in this game kicked my ass
This slowmotion feature is shit and useless
Eh, it’s fun to use. Could probably use a buff but it’s free so I’m not bothered by how it is.

For me it only makes screen looks cool.
