This game is an "anti-shooter", you're not the guy mowing down groups, you're the little guy scurrying around the gunfire in the shadows. For anyone really interested in the vibes of the game I suggest watching Riloe's videos on it.
This reminds me of the Seoul mission from splinter cell chaos theory, where there was a war going on between two factions, and you just had to sneak under both of them and get what you need and get outta there.
I am a bit scepical about this aspect specifically. I enjoy the occasional sneak here and there, but I am a bit afraid that the main "gameplay" will end up as... waiting. Maybe the waiting will be so intense that it works, but for now I am sceptical
@@Qrzychu92 That's fine, because the game is focusing on a particular feel. "The combat voyeurism" feel, it's probably not going to be for a lot of people. If it's not something that appeals to you, that's okay. you probably shouldn't buy it unless you see something that makes you think you'll enjoy the experience it's aiming for.
Having played the beta, this is definitely not the kind of game that Asmon will enjoy, but if you enjoy more thoughtful exploration shooters that require stealth and managing risk/resources like Tarkov and GTFO, then you're the target audience. This is NOT a shoot ‘em up, engage-everything-on-sight game.
To people wondering why the mech pooped out a person out of the sack at 5:30 it uses organic matter for fuel and well you can guess what happens to our dear scav here at 6:31
@@darkwowplayer Dafuq youre saying they were 2 on the move and 1 operator (whos probably safe and alive maybe) . Here there is only one man left and their mechanical friends got even shredded too second and even first you can clearly see as the first comment pointed out that a HUMAN DEAD BODY was spitted away from the same bag that robot put the captured human in.
What I've heard from people talking about it is that the devs are mostly vets from the industry that didn't like the games they were making, but this whole game was originally just supposed to he an art book, they never figured it'd be possible to make it into a game, but when they saw Tarkov they thought "hey, this could work" and since then they've been working on it. Also I am 99% they will never let you be in the mech, the whole point is that you are not a cool soldier mecha pilot man, you're just a scavenger. As for PvP, I think they probably could do that, but the whole game is about avoiding the ai because they are actual armies & you're just some guy, so having the scavs fight is probably possible but doesn't seem to be the gameplay loop they're looking for, still, unlike being a mecha pilot this is far more plausible in future.
I just hope they put in the effort to make single player offline work. I'm tired of flavor of the month co-op extraction crap. This game has so much potential and it would suck to ruin these vibes with derpy bots as teammates.

Yep. Tired of jumping into a game with a serious setting, and then seeing people dressed as maids, wearing beach clothing, and fucking teddy bear suits running around. Lost Ark is a major example of this disgrace.
God. 5:30 having that digested person fall out of that bag. Then at 6:35 one of the guys being loaded into the bag to end with the same fate. What a truly awful way to die. Its so unforgiving and horrible.
This game will follow the helldiver failure model. The devs are implementing very bad mechanics that players don't like and not taking feedback. Things like not playing the game will cause your character to LOSE PROGRESS. So I don't think the game will have any long term sustainability after people realize how bad the game is and how obnoxious the devs are. I'm not going to buy this game until it goes on sale, and only if they address the artificial annoyance mechanics.
OMG dude, the drum fed shotgun being "upside down" on the drone at 0:55 is friggin next level.... let me explain... Drones with guns are the next evolution of current day real world battlefields. The challenge has been how to have enough ammo AND how to reload quickly. The drum is enough ammo, also the drum is sized to possibly be shotgun shells, again amazingly correct concept, the upside-down gun is the ability to easily reload the magazine, guns are usually loaded from the bottom not the top, well the drone is in the way of the bottom so just flip the gun. PROMISE you will see all the defense contractors start doing this asap.... with that level of detail this is going to be something quite special!
yeah thing is... youre not the guy in the giant mech thing, youre just a rando trying to scavenge resources off the battlefield to survive... while the battlefield is raging on...
A lot of people don't seem to get what the devs are really going for. No PVP, No giant mech suits, you are the hobo NPC the protagonist sees for a few frames looting a dead guy.
WH40k is grimdark to the point of being silly, and I'm not saying it's a bad thing. It's that way on purpose. This game is supposed to be more thoughtful, philosophical even.
Asmon. I know you or your editors may not read this. But please stop overhyping the game yet. It is not coming out to release on Sept 24. It is going into early access for everyone to play. I want this game to also succeed so fucking badly, but please make sure you tell your viewers or make sure people understand that this is a early access game, and it is going to have alot of growing pains. But please stay with the game everyone. Zack you are literally my favorite CC online. So i am glad your going to play this game as well i just ordered it on steam because i have to support this game. But please make sure everyone knows it is going to release in early access and that people need to assist and give feedback when they see bugs to help make the game better for the team making it. I love these guys too.
@@joethestrat if anyone misguides their own expectations that’s their own fault really.. these devs aren’t going anywhere and I truly believe this game will be around for the long haul & once it does get to a certain point the individuals who once gave up well either come back or not… who knows really… a game having publicity is a good thing… good or bad the brand & name will stick with folks is how I see it. Even if they have to “no man sky” their way up into the full vision of where they wanna be. It’s basically the exact definition of early access in a sense to those developers who don’t abuse it… I get ur worry though the same thing kind of happened with grayzone warfare but realistically those devs who had a similar situation happen have barely added anything of value since release and are about to do their first major update soon that not a whole lot are pumped for (content wise and what they have being added) so it’s really all in the devs hands no matter what way we put it and how THEY decide to take on the growth and release of the game post launch
I watched AngryJoe play this for a bit and it looked quite fun, however there were some rough parts like enemies spawning in unexpectedly in front of you sometimes (or de-spawning) and also the starter levels being EXTREMELY hard if your NOT good at stealth.
yeah it's got about 1-2 years of cooking left to do I would expect. I'm still gonna buy it though as it passes the vibe check for games I like. brutal.
Sorry, I dont usually write comments like this. Asmon seems to have a completely wrong image of this game. there will be no PvP and no driving Giant mechs. you are a survivor in a warzone. thats it.
@@TheMrPyatka the concept is unique, gotta give them credits for that, but later on it harms development since I don't think you get much to work with when you are just scavenging for salvages in a world where you are just an ant
@@TheMrPyatkaI think the idea of being a scavenger at the start is fine, but it might be a huge turn off if that’s all you’re going to be throughout the game. You’ll never have that moment of becoming the predator or getting back at the machine that’s killed you countless times while you were still a noob.
The devs have officially said on the discord that there will be cybernetics such as replacing flesh with steel, and that there will be stuff to do with smaller mech suits and they been spending a lot of time playing mech games and will have more to say on it in the future.
BigFry: We need more stealth games! Also BigFry: Opens up and tries to play the game like CoD, ends up dead and whines about the game being bad.. It's not an action shooter, it's a stealth survival horror. The entire time he played he tried to go in guns blazing and waded into groups of 3+ enemies and expected to win when the game specifically tells you up front, you aren't that guy.
This is like Armored Core, except instead of working as a big shot AC pilot, you get to play as one of the nobodies on the ground just trying to survive a never ending war between superpowers that far outscale you and has nothing to do with you. It gives me Armored Core meets Death Stranding vibes. The concept is really good. And i hope the devs can deliver on the gameplay they are trying to give us.
He's not gonna like it when he finds out that the early access game built by 20 people is in fact, an early build instead of a completed polished product day one
Yep, he is overhyping this one way too much. Not saying the game will be bad or anything, but 100% it will be noticable that is is an early access title made by a small team, that will still require lots of work and time to be called a finished product. As great and interesting as this looks, everyone who expects a fully fleshed out game is in for a bad surprise. Like please, this is an early access game so threat it as one aswell and don't expect more than was promised.
@@Wrex90 he literally said that in the video, he will play it, if it's good or not he will just wait till it's good and that's it, like cyberpunk or no man's sky, he doesn't care...
@@frankiesslipal3730 I don't think they have the people and resources to drag a dead game along for over a year to fix what's broken with it. Sadly I think the overhyping of this game is going to kill it. Maybe the devs just want a payday for their cool idea, which is why they're hiding actual gameplay and just showing cinematics instead
@@utmastuh Just do a bit of research before spewing misinformation... The game has gameplay out, look at video of gameplay on youtube... "The overhyping of this game is gooing to kill it", stop the doomer attitude.
A lot of people are hyped for the aesthetics of the game, but they aren't ready for the anti-shooter extraction game. This is a rat game and I'm excited for it. I love stealthily going around and looting.
problem is even the rat style is currently kinds dumb, as the game auto detects if you have a good haul and almost insta kills you. Its a neat concept, but between pissing off the shooters, pissing off the rat bois, and the water depletion when offline .... decision, i think most of the playerbase will ditch quickly. Games are supposed to be fun.
@@unyieldingsarcasm2505 that why it early access, they are looking for feedback and are fixing bug + balancing, so don't judge too quick here (after all aside from keep buying or join into those bad AAA game or similar, another way to not help good studio is by keep fence sitting and let game like this stay in earl access forever due to either lack of fund for kickstarter, don't get enough player for either feedback or maintain a lobby for everyone involved there). So don't jump bandwagon to either extreeme like most people and think for yourself
the music, the atmosphere, the visuals, the vibe, the gameplay (showed in previous videos), the no paywall promises... please, please, please do NOT fuck up this one!
Think you might need to tamper down the expectations or come back in a year or so. Maybe buy the EA as a donation or wallet vote to support the guys and then come back once you've worked down your backlog or it's got an official release or something
This looks and feels like a grungy 2000s era shooter. I found out the other day that one of the developers used to work on Killzone. That makes a lot of sense given the atmosphere. This game looks like you're trying to survive as a civilian in that universe or something like armored core.
Bleak, psychotic grimdark is where it's at. This has such a hopeless ultraviolence vibe. This is how I see 40k, but even more desperate and overwhelming. Pitch perfect!
The masculine urge to be plunged into a post-apocalyptic world with little water remaining and only a handgun to defend myself against giant monsters...
Just set expectations low until you try it for yourself. Based on early impressions from other RUclipsrs it’s janky and unpolished but “playable”. I think people need to be reminded that it still is in EA so don’t go in expecting too much. It’s basically a paid public alpha. I will be trying it out next week tho for sure!
The trailer and music feels exactly like those tiktoks where a character says something about friendship and honour, then this type of music kicks in as a bunch of clips of depressing events from the game/show play.
From what I've understood about the devs, it's being released because there is a lot of people interested in the game and to get feedback. I really hope that people won't go into this with too much hype and start attacking the devs for the game not being up to what they thought (including the fact that you really are the little guy and that you are supposed to help others as well). I really hope this gets proper polish and eventually becomes all around smooth experience instead of suffering from too much hype.
people complaining it doesnt have PVP. Does every online game have to have PVP or its not as good? This doesnt look like PVP would even be fun in it. Its a looter shooter, not COD.
this kind of horror is something i rly like, i wish it is something like a co-op shooter silent hill. scarce resources, disturbing enemies, situations and atmosphere. with cooperation between players being useful and dangerous/risky at the same time. self defence being the very last option as you face against both machine and eldritch/body horror things with overwhelming odds against your favor if you choose to fight.
A lot of people are digging the vibes of Forever Winter because the videogame market is oversaturated with the pop, cartoony, pixar-ish, visually pretty style of videogames.
In this game you never exel , you survive, your the Scavanger surviving in terminator, your the few that fins a way to live inside a warzone , with no side to take part in , your alone and helpless between behemoths at each others throats
their inspirations where taken from gritty cyberpunk and dark sci-fi anime's and other works like BLAM with the monolithic super structures and AI that rebuild everything at night. And it really feels like what asmon said, it reminds me of the general look of armored core 6, but instead of being the bad ass mech pilots we are just the rats scurrying around their titanic feet.
Sanitized. That's always the word that comes to mind for me when a game (or other media, really) comes out and it _pretends_ to be dark and gritty. Being properly dark should, at least often, be confronting, sometimes even uncomfortable, but in last decade or so pretty much everything that should be like comes out with all the edge filed off. Like anything that might push peoples comfort zones even a little has to done away with, sanitized.
The latest video on their steam page talks about their plans for the game and has gained mad respect from me towards the devs for what they talk about.
I don't mind hard. I would welcome it. There is however one single mechanic that has kept me and others from buying this game and that's the fact that the water loss mechanic continues, even when you're offline and not playing. Meaning you'll lose everything if you don't log in and keep your water up. I just can't be held hostage by a game. Real life takes me away from playing sometimes and it would suck to lose everything.
I think making an extraction shooter pve is genious actually. It opens more space for enemy viriety and pve games will always be less stressful than pvp games. The only players you need are your coop friends who will make the experience even better. Im loving those coop pve games we getting latelly and i think thats a very good genre for the industry to invest
I'll support this game based on its theme alone. I'm so tired of every game being geared toward 13-year-olds. Ever since Fortnite, the video game industry has doubled down on making "games for everyone," which means washing everything in a coat of Disney/Pixar. Seeing a studio with the courage to take a chance at a fresh, gritty, mature IP is refreshing.
Grimdark, serious, dystopic, near horror, and stoic. The trailer literally said not a single word, but portrayed exactly what it needed to the viewers, amazing.
I like that you play a scaw and are not fighting in one of the armys. The war isn't yours to fight... you are just trying to survival in the midst of it all
A video i saw on this game equated the gameplay to the ending war scene in the film children of men. A single person stuck between 2 warring factions where you can die at the drop of a hat. You pick your moments and your chances to make progress and do your damned hardest not to be spotted by either side
OG Conan MMO had all the grit, true to lore.; then it was-PG'd. All appeal left the game at that point, people stayed even with the bugs and issues waiting for dev's to patch things. Once it dumbed down, game died.
This game is not a tuned-down version of helldivers, space marine or doom... This is "This war of mine" scavenging part made real. In an horror scenario. Looking forward to its state two years from now.
i think they have system to rate how strong player gear is. like if you have rat gear shitty gun shitty armor. npc will engage enemie npc first. and if you stay out of their way they will just run past you. but if you have high tier gear and weapon. npc will mark you as a treat and attack you first.
@@sanguisbumb6138 Bro said 'its not a real issue' when the entire western entertainment industry is failing right now because of Activists and their DEI agendas lmao
I don't think asmon really like this, but, after the trailer when the developers speak to the audience about how they are willing to create something good with their feedback, I think asmon was convince in try it just to give them recognition and feedback. I really don't think this Game Will be good on realese, games take time to make and Even more times to be good, but they are willing to lisent and change stuff, that means, if they create a comunity, this Will be a banger in the future, gamers need to adjust to do more things like this, to "create" games with the developers, to make better games, stick to a comunity and help the developers to make a great Game.
For anyone who likes the vibe of the setting and enjoys manga, try out any of the works of Nihei Tsutomu. Especially "Blame!" and "Aposimz". I'd be very surprised if Blame! in particular did not serve a certain amount of inspiration for the creators.
Can't wait to see him be surprised that this game is not about going loud and being the main character mowing shit down on the main stage. But then, he might end up really liking it for all i know.
as someone who doesn't like when games that deliberately try to be dark and grim and just come off as edgy and crass, this looks incredible. definitely getting Metro or Stalker vibes. I'm here for it
Especially with "experimental" ganes like this which go against the tried and tested gameplay genres. Some, like Dark Souls, have had great success. But so, so many of these indie projects just end up bland and tedious
So the premise is that you're scavengers and not meant to confront enemies but merely survive. Notice in the trailer they don't fight until they're confronted even then they have to choke point enemies or take drastic measures. You're not the big huge protagonist. You're the guys selling scrap to the highest bidder
If you think about it, this game does fit him. Because to play this game, you have to survive and live through it. Play like a rat, live like a rat, and you get to scavenge another day.
Games need to bring back immersive grit, dark, serious, mystery, danger, fear. Everything feels so bright and light hearted, even if the game is bad, i feel good supporting there vision from their art direction and what theyve saidbfor only $27 is more than fair. Its like the cost of 2 meals, yet this is someones life work, deserves a chance.
@@thumpertron ok, this game is most certainly not for you and the devs know that their game is not for everyone as they're leaning VERY hard on a specific feel, look, and gameplay
@@thefakecat8340 hd2 was the first one i played, and loved it. i saw this game on one of those upcoming games in 2024 type of vids and thought it looked amazing, so i put it on my wishlist on steam and got it about a week after it came out when i got paid. i love it, its pretty much been the only game ive played since getting it. its going to be awesome watching it grow into itself as the game develops.
The game is more stealth because you can easily eat too much than you can chew. Noise will lure a helluvah of enemies if you don't take your kills silently and isolated. I don't think Asmon will enjoy that pace because he already stated that he doesn't like games that doesn't let him to go head first into a group of mobs and come out victorious. But who knows, Elden Ring was also of taking down enemies using the head first before you got enough OP to start mowing the enemies mindlessly.
@@Jack-cc3qmis metro really like fallout like every body has loot and you’re just aimlessly collecting loot and leveling up etc..? I’ve always heard of metro and am a fan of stalker even though I’ve never played a stalker title lol… I will be though once the second drops.
@@ANDYBARLOTV Only the context is similar, in fallout every enemy like humans and monsters have loot, metro is the opposite, mutant don't drop anything and humans drop 7-10 bullets maxium, most of your stuff needs to be crafted with your own ressouce that you HAVE to find. Metro is more of about horror-survival, you also have rpg elements, from what i remember every metro game has 2 different ending.
Excuse my crudeness but Bigfry imo belongs on that one episode of Southpark where the brofloskis move to San Francisco, specifically he belongs in the scene of the hybrid car owners huffing there own farts. Just how his last couple of videos came across to me is all.

WH40k is grimdark to the point of being silly, and I'm not saying it's a bad thing. It's that way on purpose.
This game is supposed to be more thoughtful, philosophical even.
40k universe is VERY dark. Unfortunately most products made in it just simply don't represent that well, or gloss over the...very dark elements.
this game is what I imagine in W40K, instead of being a badass space marine, I am just a Krieg guardmen who will die 5 min into the warzones
40k is silly dark. this is just straight up depressing
We will get Warhammer 40K: Rainbows, before GTA6
Asmon. I know you or your editors may not read this. But please stop overhyping the game yet. It is not coming out to release on Sept 24. It is going into early access for everyone to play. I want this game to also succeed so fucking badly, but please make sure you tell your viewers or make sure people understand that this is a early access game, and it is going to have alot of growing pains. But please stay with the game everyone. Zack you are literally my favorite CC online. So i am glad your going to play this game as well i just ordered it on steam because i have to support this game. But please make sure everyone knows it is going to release in early access and that people need to assist and give feedback when they see bugs to help make the game better for the team making it. I love these guys too.
The game will do fine even if it has a rough start and low player count after a bit… talent alwaysssss wins… we got this bro forever winter FOREVER
This hype is going to damage an unprepared game.
@@joethestrat if anyone misguides their own expectations that’s their own fault really.. these devs aren’t going anywhere and I truly believe this game will be around for the long haul & once it does get to a certain point the individuals who once gave up well either come back or not… who knows really… a game having publicity is a good thing… good or bad the brand & name will stick with folks is how I see it. Even if they have to “no man sky” their way up into the full vision of where they wanna be.
It’s basically the exact definition of early access in a sense to those developers who don’t abuse it… I get ur worry though the same thing kind of happened with grayzone warfare but realistically those devs who had a similar situation happen have barely added anything of value since release and are about to do their first major update soon that not a whole lot are pumped for (content wise and what they have being added) so it’s really all in the devs hands no matter what way we put it and how THEY decide to take on the growth and release of the game post launch
4:31 someone said "normal day in ukraine" bruh
more like a normal day in Gaza since decades ago
See-aye ayyyyyyy lmao simulator
This is what happens to an imperial planet in w40k after it gets cut off from interstellar shipments.
I watched AngryJoe play this for a bit and it looked quite fun, however there were some rough parts like enemies spawning in unexpectedly in front of you sometimes (or de-spawning) and also the starter levels being EXTREMELY hard if your NOT good at stealth.
well it is early access..
yeah it's got about 1-2 years of cooking left to do I would expect.
I'm still gonna buy it though as it passes the vibe check for games I like.
brutal.
@@Ghorda9 Yeah I understand this, but many people might not. Lots of people expect a finished product at EA time for some reason.
Oh no. A stealth game where you fail if you’re not stealthy.
@@Ghorda9 Terrible excuse, this game is basically a scam.
Sorry, I dont usually write comments like this.
Asmon seems to have a completely wrong image of this game. there will be no PvP and no driving Giant mechs. you are a survivor in a warzone. thats it.
They'd be nuts not to get us climbing a mech like Shadows of the Colossus or deploying us in one for a mission. That'd be so hype.
@@MichaelSplatkins but they also would be nuts to break whole concept of the game. And the concept is that you are small, useless ant
Small note about the mechs, there’s a Chance we could get access to the smaller exo suits/mechs post launch as they said in the Q&A
@@TheMrPyatka the concept is unique, gotta give them credits for that, but later on it harms development since I don't think you get much to work with when you are just scavenging for salvages in a world where you are just an ant
@@TheMrPyatkaI think the idea of being a scavenger at the start is fine, but it might be a huge turn off if that’s all you’re going to be throughout the game. You’ll never have that moment of becoming the predator or getting back at the machine that’s killed you countless times while you were still a noob.
He won't play it
*he won't complete it
never say never
@@cactophone4552either one is possible tbh
He won't say never
He might play it once.
Gives me Warhammer vibes except you're a random scavenger caught up between the war and not some overpowered Space Marine.
Or humanity before the emperor rose up
The devs have officially said on the discord that there will be cybernetics such as replacing flesh with steel, and that there will be stuff to do with smaller mech suits and they been spending a lot of time playing mech games and will have more to say on it in the future.
Buying the game no matter what. They have my full support. It's my $27 middle finger to Ubisoft.
And you're giving it to EA. Isn't this game published by EA?
@@Rellikan i hope not
@@Rellikan No. EA stands for Early Access, they are self-publishing the game.
@@RellikanNo, they are publishing it themselves
Oh now I feel really dumb lol.
BigFry: We need more stealth games!
Also BigFry: Opens up and tries to play the game like CoD, ends up dead and whines about the game being bad.. It's not an action shooter, it's a stealth survival horror. The entire time he played he tried to go in guns blazing and waded into groups of 3+ enemies and expected to win when the game specifically tells you up front, you aren't that guy.
This is like Armored Core, except instead of working as a big shot AC pilot, you get to play as one of the nobodies on the ground just trying to survive a never ending war between superpowers that far outscale you and has nothing to do with you. It gives me Armored Core meets Death Stranding vibes.
The concept is really good. And i hope the devs can deliver on the gameplay they are trying to give us.
He's not gonna like it when he finds out that the early access game built by 20 people is in fact, an early build instead of a completed polished product day one
Yep, he is overhyping this one way too much. Not saying the game will be bad or anything, but 100% it will be noticable that is is an early access title made by a small team, that will still require lots of work and time to be called a finished product.
As great and interesting as this looks, everyone who expects a fully fleshed out game is in for a bad surprise. Like please, this is an early access game so threat it as one aswell and don't expect more than was promised.
the studio actually has around 30 people
@@Wrex90 he literally said that in the video, he will play it, if it's good or not he will just wait till it's good and that's it, like cyberpunk or no man's sky, he doesn't care...
@@frankiesslipal3730 I don't think they have the people and resources to drag a dead game along for over a year to fix what's broken with it. Sadly I think the overhyping of this game is going to kill it. Maybe the devs just want a payday for their cool idea, which is why they're hiding actual gameplay and just showing cinematics instead
@@utmastuh Just do a bit of research before spewing misinformation... The game has gameplay out, look at video of gameplay on youtube... "The overhyping of this game is gooing to kill it", stop the doomer attitude.
A lot of people are hyped for the aesthetics of the game, but they aren't ready for the anti-shooter extraction game. This is a rat game and I'm excited for it. I love stealthily going around and looting.
general Sam taught me the ways of the rat
problem is even the rat style is currently kinds dumb, as the game auto detects if you have a good haul and almost insta kills you.
Its a neat concept, but between pissing off the shooters, pissing off the rat bois, and the water depletion when offline .... decision, i think most of the playerbase will ditch quickly. Games are supposed to be fun.
@@unyieldingsarcasm2505 that why it early access, they are looking for feedback and are fixing bug + balancing, so don't judge too quick here (after all aside from keep buying or join into those bad AAA game or similar, another way to not help good studio is by keep fence sitting and let game like this stay in earl access forever due to either lack of fund for kickstarter, don't get enough player for either feedback or maintain a lobby for everyone involved there). So don't jump bandwagon to either extreeme like most people and think for yourself
it's like Stalker , Death Stranding and Terminator games had a baby
Whoever their cinematic team is, I hope they go on to make mini series from these assets. Definitely getting those good Neill Blomkamp vibes.
the music, the atmosphere, the visuals, the vibe, the gameplay (showed in previous videos), the no paywall promises... please, please, please do NOT fuck up this one!
Think you might need to tamper down the expectations or come back in a year or so.
Maybe buy the EA as a donation or wallet vote to support the guys and then come back once you've worked down your backlog or it's got an official release or something
music is witch house/wave, check artist like VSN7 or Tokyo Tears
That dog at 1:32 is a classic: Yojimbo, Betty Blue, at least one of Tarantino's movies... 😁
I really wanted to go back to the time of Gaming Development where devs are making games like straight out of books and are experimenting.
This looks and feels like a grungy 2000s era shooter. I found out the other day that one of the developers used to work on Killzone. That makes a lot of sense given the atmosphere. This game looks like you're trying to survive as a civilian in that universe or something like armored core.
Bleak, psychotic grimdark is where it's at. This has such a hopeless ultraviolence vibe. This is how I see 40k, but even more desperate and overwhelming. Pitch perfect!
The masculine urge to be plunged into a post-apocalyptic world with little water remaining and only a handgun to defend myself against giant monsters...
Just set expectations low until you try it for yourself. Based on early impressions from other RUclipsrs it’s janky and unpolished but “playable”. I think people need to be reminded that it still is in EA so don’t go in expecting too much. It’s basically a paid public alpha. I will be trying it out next week tho for sure!
The Machine War in The Matrix.
That dude getting ripped apart was very in line with the Animatrix machine war segment
The trailer and music feels exactly like those tiktoks where a character says something about friendship and honour, then this type of music kicks in as a bunch of clips of depressing events from the game/show play.
From what I've understood about the devs, it's being released because there is a lot of people interested in the game and to get feedback. I really hope that people won't go into this with too much hype and start attacking the devs for the game not being up to what they thought (including the fact that you really are the little guy and that you are supposed to help others as well).
I really hope this gets proper polish and eventually becomes all around smooth experience instead of suffering from too much hype.
people complaining it doesnt have PVP. Does every online game have to have PVP or its not as good? This doesnt look like PVP would even be fun in it. Its a looter shooter, not COD.
this kind of horror is something i rly like, i wish it is something like a co-op shooter silent hill. scarce resources, disturbing enemies, situations and atmosphere. with cooperation between players being useful and dangerous/risky at the same time. self defence being the very last option as you face against both machine and eldritch/body horror things with overwhelming odds against your favor if you choose to fight.
A lot of people are digging the vibes of Forever Winter because the videogame market is oversaturated with the pop, cartoony, pixar-ish, visually pretty style of videogames.
In this game you never exel , you survive, your the Scavanger surviving in terminator, your the few that fins a way to live inside a warzone , with no side to take part in , your alone and helpless between behemoths at each others throats
their inspirations where taken from gritty cyberpunk and dark sci-fi anime's and other works like BLAM with the monolithic super structures and AI that rebuild everything at night. And it really feels like what asmon said, it reminds me of the general look of armored core 6, but instead of being the bad ass mech pilots we are just the rats scurrying around their titanic feet.
love that it's also a strand game. I love the death stranding mechanics of managing your cargo and can give weapons and materials.
Sanitized. That's always the word that comes to mind for me when a game (or other media, really) comes out and it _pretends_ to be dark and gritty. Being properly dark should, at least often, be confronting, sometimes even uncomfortable, but in last decade or so pretty much everything that should be like comes out with all the edge filed off. Like anything that might push peoples comfort zones even a little has to done away with, sanitized.
The latest video on their steam page talks about their plans for the game and has gained mad respect from me towards the devs for what they talk about.
We need more games like this. Post apocalyptic is my favorite esthetic.
Video starts with: “Forever winter, came out a day ago.”
Man you got my hopes up
6 more days brother. Stay strong
LIterally next week for EA.
He made me panic...
I don't mind hard. I would welcome it. There is however one single mechanic that has kept me and others from buying this game and that's the fact that the water loss mechanic continues, even when you're offline and not playing. Meaning you'll lose everything if you don't log in and keep your water up. I just can't be held hostage by a game. Real life takes me away from playing sometimes and it would suck to lose everything.
Always good to see effort put into a game trailer and not some basic trash
I think making an extraction shooter pve is genious actually.
It opens more space for enemy viriety and pve games will always be less stressful than pvp games.
The only players you need are your coop friends who will make the experience even better. Im loving those coop pve games we getting latelly and i think thats a very good genre for the industry to invest
Color palette plays a huge role in it. Fallout 3 is very grim and bleak especially in the DC area because of its green, grey, and brown color palette.
for those who got blown out by the synth over the 808s the track is called "The Blackout'' ya welcome
I'll support this game based on its theme alone. I'm so tired of every game being geared toward 13-year-olds. Ever since Fortnite, the video game industry has doubled down on making "games for everyone," which means washing everything in a coat of Disney/Pixar.
Seeing a studio with the courage to take a chance at a fresh, gritty, mature IP is refreshing.
Ya, pretty excited for this.
LoL, BigFry trying to playing this like a normal shooter didn't help his experience.
Getting the 1990 movie hardware vibe from this trailer love it
Grimdark, serious, dystopic, near horror, and stoic. The trailer literally said not a single word, but portrayed exactly what it needed to the viewers, amazing.
Remember guys, the 24th is just early release
It's too broken even for early access.
@thumpertron Look like they are only looking for gameplay feedback. It will definitely have a lot of bugs which i hope they'll fix
Btw a dog holding a severed human hand is a quote from Akira Kurosawa's 'Yojimbo' (1961).
The music reminds me of the music in the game "The Ascent".
I like that you play a scaw and are not fighting in one of the armys. The war isn't yours to fight... you are just trying to survival in the midst of it all
If they want it to be PVE only, then I hope they make the best PVE coop game there is. I'll be rooting for them in good faith.
I have waited for someone with this feel since Starcraft 1! Those cut scenes, although some a little goofy, gave this good apocalyptic feel!
You're not the armies you're a scavanger
A video i saw on this game equated the gameplay to the ending war scene in the film children of men.
A single person stuck between 2 warring factions where you can die at the drop of a hat. You pick your moments and your chances to make progress and do your damned hardest not to be spotted by either side
If I can imagine children of men whilst I play this. Then im even more sold!
OG Conan MMO had all the grit, true to lore.; then it was-PG'd. All appeal left the game at that point, people stayed even with the bugs and issues waiting for dev's to patch things. Once it dumbed down, game died.
This game is brutal, takes stealth to a whole new level.
Looks like a game Kojima might make.
This game is not a tuned-down version of helldivers, space marine or doom...
This is "This war of mine" scavenging part made real. In an horror scenario.
Looking forward to its state two years from now.
I've almost seen this somewhere before but slightly different. Anime or a music vid. Director creator must must be the same.
Love death robots?
That tank and mech trading fires and missiles at each other was peak cinema. So goddamn cool.
Love, death and robots type art style and vibe, i love it. Will atleast try it.
Maybe that is where. That style just is too "Deja Vu".
i think they have system to rate how strong player gear is. like if you have rat gear shitty gun shitty armor.
npc will engage enemie npc first. and if you stay out of their way they will just run past you.
but if you have high tier gear and weapon. npc will mark you as a treat and attack you first.
Remember, Games like these can be made by AAA companies. Except they're always held back by their ideologies and DEI.
AAA companies wouldn't be able to fund this because it's too family-unfriendly
@@UserHey exactly. The money isn't there so it's up to small studios to do it right
Quit complaining about DEI. It’s not a real issue.
@@sanguisbumb6138 You're right it's not a real issue, it never supposed to, until they made it to be an issue. It's like asking why do we have to eat.
@@sanguisbumb6138 Bro said 'its not a real issue' when the entire western entertainment industry is failing right now because of Activists and their DEI agendas lmao
I don't think asmon really like this, but, after the trailer when the developers speak to the audience about how they are willing to create something good with their feedback, I think asmon was convince in try it just to give them recognition and feedback. I really don't think this Game Will be good on realese, games take time to make and Even more times to be good, but they are willing to lisent and change stuff, that means, if they create a comunity, this Will be a banger in the future, gamers need to adjust to do more things like this, to "create" games with the developers, to make better games, stick to a comunity and help the developers to make a great Game.
The bleakness of 40k meets Metro meets Generation Zero.
For anyone who likes the vibe of the setting and enjoys manga, try out any of the works of Nihei Tsutomu. Especially "Blame!" and "Aposimz". I'd be very surprised if Blame! in particular did not serve a certain amount of inspiration for the creators.
Can't wait to see him be surprised that this game is not about going loud and being the main character mowing shit down on the main stage. But then, he might end up really liking it for all i know.
as someone who doesn't like when games that deliberately try to be dark and grim and just come off as edgy and crass, this looks incredible. definitely getting Metro or Stalker vibes. I'm here for it
I’ve learned to reserve my excitement…
Especially with "experimental" ganes like this which go against the tried and tested gameplay genres.
Some, like Dark Souls, have had great success. But so, so many of these indie projects just end up bland and tedious
So the premise is that you're scavengers and not meant to confront enemies but merely survive. Notice in the trailer they don't fight until they're confronted even then they have to choke point enemies or take drastic measures. You're not the big huge protagonist. You're the guys selling scrap to the highest bidder
If you think about it, this game does fit him.
Because to play this game, you have to survive and live through it. Play like a rat, live like a rat, and you get to scavenge another day.
Somebody needs to mod it to Vtuber life. You scavenge on the internet for click baits while the mega conglomerates battle it out around you.
Games need to bring back immersive grit, dark, serious, mystery, danger, fear.
Everything feels so bright and light hearted, even if the game is bad, i feel good supporting there vision from their art direction and what theyve saidbfor only $27 is more than fair. Its like the cost of 2 meals, yet this is someones life work, deserves a chance.
Trailers are meant to HYPE a game, not be a sample of the product. You can't look at any Trailer of a game and judge the game.
they already published a video showing some gameplay, this is the game trailer video.
dnt be lazy, gameplay play by content creator already out since they announce closed beta way way back. smh all this lazy ass gen z
You clearly did no research before posting.
What are these comments? Yeah there's gameplay, and it's one of the worst games i've ever seen! It's beyond broken.
@@thumpertron ok, this game is most certainly not for you and the devs know that their game is not for everyone as they're leaning VERY hard on a specific feel, look, and gameplay
I was sold at walking robo helpers with AA-12s for heads.
Can't wait to see how the game journalists and DEI try to slander this game cause its not for the modern audience
Journalists mostly just aren't going to cover it anyways. Everything isnt about woke and dei. Talking point is boring af
To some, everything is woke dei bs. The talking point was boring 100 years ago too but that didn't stop its foundation being set in stone for us.
well the studio is owned by a black guy so they wouldn’t try 😂
the game is broken, buggued and a mess right now, no one will give a shit about this, not now at least
Even if its not the best game, if its heart is in the right place, its something you can get behind
Might not play it. But definitely wanna buy it just to support their efforts
Is a 4 person coop game. Nothing fancy like big battles. The trailer simply very nicely done.
its a little janky but getting better. overall this game is really awesome. its so much fun. and so much potential.
Really its the only extraction shooter ive been interested in
@@thefakecat8340 hd2 was the first one i played, and loved it. i saw this game on one of those upcoming games in 2024 type of vids and thought it looked amazing, so i put it on my wishlist on steam and got it about a week after it came out when i got paid. i love it, its pretty much been the only game ive played since getting it. its going to be awesome watching it grow into itself as the game develops.
The game is more stealth because you can easily eat too much than you can chew. Noise will lure a helluvah of enemies if you don't take your kills silently and isolated. I don't think Asmon will enjoy that pace because he already stated that he doesn't like games that doesn't let him to go head first into a group of mobs and come out victorious. But who knows, Elden Ring was also of taking down enemies using the head first before you got enough OP to start mowing the enemies mindlessly.
If Fallout was made by not-Bethesda.
@@Hydelix Yes why do people forget about the metro trilogy, it was excellent in my opinion.
@@Hydelix true. I forgot about Metro totally. I thought it was a spinoff from Stalker's developer.
@@florentnicolas4503 just went through Exodus again and i'm currently going through the DLCs. honestly in my top 10. whole franchise is GOATED
@@Jack-cc3qmis metro really like fallout like every body has loot and you’re just aimlessly collecting loot and leveling up etc..? I’ve always heard of metro and am a fan of stalker even though I’ve never played a stalker title lol… I will be though once the second drops.
@@ANDYBARLOTV Only the context is similar, in fallout every enemy like humans and monsters have loot, metro is the opposite, mutant don't drop anything and humans drop 7-10 bullets maxium, most of your stuff needs to be crafted with your own ressouce that you HAVE to find.
Metro is more of about horror-survival, you also have rpg elements, from what i remember every metro game has 2 different ending.
Excuse my crudeness but Bigfry imo belongs on that one episode of Southpark where the brofloskis move to San Francisco, specifically he belongs in the scene of the hybrid car owners huffing there own farts. Just how his last couple of videos came across to me is all.
reminds me of The Animatrix
