Big thanks to every one that joined me on twitch! It's always a fun time to talk to my viewers while playing a game like this. If you want to hang out in the future, consider following my twitch! www.twitch.tv/jarek4gamingdragon
There is a game called Instinct aka Instinkt, It was also released in 2007 and it was made by You are empty devs. Instinct is similar to Dusk 12 and it is heavy influenced by Half life. In my opinion it is little better than this game, so check it out. BTW it uses same engine like You are empty. The game is 3 hour long and it is perfect for your channel. There are ragdolls, HL2 vajbs, vents, soldiers, zombies, crowbar and ragdoll launcher shotgun. You would find more fun in that janky shooter then Dusk 12. I think if you want to run on modern systems, You would need apply similar fixes like in You are empty.
I eat bricks
There is a game on the PSP that might be of your interest, Its called Rengoku and it has a sequel that one can say without a doubt "The Soul's combat before Soul's games"
don't know about you Jarek, but videos like this are funnier when drinking a can or two of beer
Game devs should get Jarek and Oboeshoes to play-test all FPS first. If something is fun and could be interactive, it should be. Like the microwave in Half Life. Game is decades old and its still awesome!
agreed
Don't forget Pongsifu. Be funny to see videos from all three of them either tearing a game apart or praising the funny dumb mechanics a game might have
@@luanfonseca5179 omg YES! oboe will crack jokes while jarek tries to be serious
Add me boi gmanlives in as well
@@scottnapkins441 Yes sonny jim! And Civvie so we don’t get too many sewer levels!
Obligatory "I haven't played Dusk 2 through 11 yet" joke. Great video too!
Dang! You beat me to it! You have bested me!
Daamn. Seeing "Kent" cigarettes gave me a little anxiety.
My father used to work in a local BAT distribution company, which meant that Kent stuff was just as common as Diabetes in the population of India. That absolute madlad basically carried the entire company, and the leadership almost pinned a whole bunch of shite on him. I still remember just how much of a shocker the news of him resigning from that job was.
Why am I telling you this? Why have I taken a break from my 3 hour study-binge? I dunno. Great video as always Jarek. A joy seeing your stuff love
@@SnapThority You sure chief?
Having just googled it...fucking hell I guess I was wrong, sorry bout that. I may have misremembered it, or maybe we were given a factually wrong example.
@@SnapThority hmmm, sounds like something I definitely should note in the future.
Last time I came this early, a game had no FOV slider.
You are also not that bright are you.
There's one thing about that double barrel that bugs me... The round in the top chamber just doesn't exist, sure we see an animation of a shell being inserted into it but it just disappears when the bottom barrel is loaded.
counterpoint: death animations are great for more serious games or horror games where you dont want any funny shenanigans
(this is about the 2000s ragdolls thing for clarification)
Agreed. But F.E.A.R., while still being more fps than horror/serious, is so great partly because of its dumb ragdolls. Same with Dead Space
Active ragdolls is where it's at, you get a mix of animation and ragdolls
@@qee4617 yeah like left 4 dead
@@dotcomgamingd5564 L4D uses the common animation to ragdoll transition, a good representation fo Active Ragdolls is Ground Branch
@@qee4617 oh ok, thanks
Hey Jarek. This game reminds me of an other slavjank game called Boiling Point: Road To Hell. You're playing as some high ranking russian soldier and his daughter, who works as a news reporter in Colombia, gets kidnapped by some criminals and there you go, main quest is "find daughter". The game is a First Person Shooter with poorly done RPG mechanics and meh gunplay, has an inventory system like in S.T.A.L.K.E.R and factions you can complete quests for, like in Fallout. Working for whatever faction raises or diminishes reputation with other factions, it's pretty cool. I recommend it if you wanna make a video on a bad-mediocre eastern-european game.
I have Boiling Point and I love it's charming jank. I remember buying it new from EB Games in 2005 when it launched. Back then I called it Morrowind meets Far Cry but sloppy. Cars can run out of gas, tires can go flat. You can store inventory in car trunks. You can sleep in your car. You can take drugs. There are snakes and cougars and bees that attack you in the jungle. Guns have wear and tear and can jam if they get too worn out. It truely is non-linear and open. You can work for any faction or make some pocket change by being a bus driver. However, it's abandonware and not on Steam.
Columbia or Colombia?
@@hooligan410 idc it's not even a real country in English translation, but it is Colombia in the Russian version. Imma fix the name.
Hah I remember this charming little jank fest and it even has its own theme tune in the style of a 90s tv action drama
Having an AN-94 in russian games at the time was like every western made game having an OICW
What games have an OICW ? Only one I can actually think of is the first Far Cry, but that was a German developer. I can't think of other games around that time with an OICW... Was there on in CoD, cause if there was I don't remember it.
@@Gatorade69 Well, Soldier of Fortune 2 and Delta Force: Land Warrior(as well as Task Force Dagger) had OICW. It was also planned for Half-Life 2 but it was cut.
@@Gatorade69 Ghost recon had it, the Half-Life 2 beta had it I don't remember which game exactly but I do remember the enemies weapon was OICW's but you couldn't pick them up
@Mud Kip plenty of games have had the XM8 which is basically the OICW's nephew
@@duderitoz6953 yeah I remember that too.
Love your vids, man! Stuck here with Covid and binging all your videos while painting some Warhammer figures! xp
Unironically sounds like a blast to me. Beats a night out any time.
Damn, and here i am with my unfinished mangas
stuck with covid? what country you live in?
@@DL-df3lg Started out as a meme, now it's a legit hobby lmao you should try it
@@cuchuoi12 Belgium. But I just have Covid, so I can't go out or something
18:00
*Commanding officer attempts to arrest main character
*Main character draws pistol and refuses
*Your wounded lieutenant shoots you in the back, ending the standoff.
* Your C.O.."thanks lieutenant"
*C.O. casually shoots the lieutenant for no reason
Also for some reason when the main character gets shot, he falls forward. But in the next shot he’s on his back. What?
11:21 it’s funny that he said the p90 looking nerf gun looks like the doom 3 smg which is funnier that in doom 3 it’s called the MG-88 enforcer just like what the nerf gun says on the side
If you watch the video, I paid to have it say MG-88 on the side and to have it in the doom 3 smg colors. The name of the nerf gun is actually the bullwark.
@@Jarekthegamingdragon oh but now all it needs is an ammo counter
A Jarek video without “Into the AM” just feels odd.
Man, Dusk really went down hill RIP New Blood Interactive 2018-2007
Much love from Canada, Jarek. Been following since the Trials days / love your content, don't stop being awesome !
Never thought I'd see the words "so bad it's good" in the same sentence with an FPS since Rogue Warrior.
You should see their game Černja metka (The Hunt 2008). Its basicly their janky version of Condemned criminal origins
I hope you do cover Turok 2008 at some point. I loved it when it released but I tried to replay it last year and it was rough.
As a Polish dude the moment I saw "Strefa Śmierci" as the sub-title I knew this would be a banger
This is one of the games that none of its devs cared about except for one extremely ambitious screenwriter.
Can't believe they made 11 more of these when I had my back turned.
Nice video! I like eastern Europe.
I am looking forward for the Turok review, I find it not that bad
And what a beautiful collection of Nerf :)
i remember this game back then for me as a teen I loved this game ahhahha
Will have to try this again one day
hope dame is healing up for the blazers good review jarek!
Now you absolutely have to cover all the other Orion shooters!
my man Jarek always out here being awesome
I like these type of games, You Are Empty is probably my favorite weird game lol.
I'm looking forward to Jarek The FOV Dragon in the Turok 2008 video.
The background music you used brings back some good old ts2 memories
Hyped to see your turok 2008 vid, that games weird
Thanks!
I remember reading about this in a gaming magazine in the 2000s :D
Can you kindly play Project: Snowblind next. It was supposed to be the third entry into the deus ex series but ended up shifting development to be its own game.
GODDAMIT that sign at 3:02 scared the shit out of me better than any horror game could
mid 2000's death animations are fun but Perfect Dark and Goldeneye are my personal favorites because of the comical motion capture rare made.
We all gotta love some good ol’ Slav jank.
Great Video.
I remember playing this years ago, surprisingly fun. Like you said so bad it's good despite having some genuinely good elements.
20:50 Wow, now you're a Forgotten Mutant from Tiberium Wars.
11:14 a fellow nerf enjoyer, my man!
Hey can i get some help i recently bought Delta Force BHD and it wont even load it crashes any tips to fix this?
18:09 Nice Mortyr 2 Kar98k sound lol
I saw the notification and thought there were 11 dusk sequels I’d not heard of
Some of the environments and the way the enemies flop over remind of the game "You Are Empty".
Your Channel amaze me so much
More like this definitely
Killing floor mention warms my heart what a good game
Gotta love that TimeSplitters 2 OST!
I'd like to recommend Operation Matriarchy, which I have played recently. It requires a little fixing, has to be played in 4:3 and needs a fanmade patch - but then it's a really interesting slav jank game I really enjoyed. It certainly is trashy, but the enemy design, the weapon variety and especially the visual design is really cool. Don't expect too much though, but you will be surprised by it more than once!
You should do that Turok video, I used to really like that game and really would like your insight on the game thank you
The mini gun is the halo 2 human turret placement
Gosh I remember watching Allshamnowow play this wayyyy back then. I'm old.
Bought this game on a newstand around 2011. for 20kn (2.5€) never got it to work properly but had hours of fun with my friend tyring to get it working. Never got past 1st lvl due to crashing until years later one day it just worked and I finnally finnished it.
Oh boy, can't wait for Takedown Red Sabre, it will be a fun one.
And have you covered 7554, a game made by some vietnamese devs about the Franco-Indochina war?
i remember watching all sham no wow playing this years ago
Waiting for that turok video 👍🏻
Yes, a close up look to the hat, I am fulfilled
I really should thank you for reviewing the games I used to play as a child, but forgotten the names, you really are a life saver
Waiting for review on Dusk 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11
Oh my Lord, what was that FOV in the Turok 2008 part? 10? 😅
It has to be worse than the default FOV for Battle Los Angeles.
Can anyone remind a track that plays when Jarek is talking (towards the end)?
The intro FMV movie makes my cats jump when they hear the cat im the movie... 🤣🤣
Ah
Good
Something to bide my time while waiting for my dental appointment to end
i am waiting to see if jarek the gaming dragon ever gonna get sponsored by keeps. it would be just funny for real
I already have been
*It is in fact ya boi*
wait, wrong channel
I just realized this game is a city interactive game
This looks like it's on the classic slavjank engine - I mean the Stalker and Boiling Point engine.
dread templar ost
Also where did you get that avp shirt I want to buy one
This game is a completely broken, busted and awful mess but my god do I love it because of all these qualities. Rarely does a game so awful manage to make me love it and laugh at it so much, it's very much the Deadly Premonition of FPS games and I adore Deadly Premonition.
Shout out to Jarek's hat, gotta be one of my favorite genders
Can't believe they made 12 Dusk games and only one of them is good
I now wanna play it lol
9:54: Okay where did you get that my guy?
Edit: And 19:24 will definitely piss people off.
5:48 Omg. They using the same ambience from the briefcase room. From 2fort tf2. Oddly. The two games came in similar times. So they probably used the same sound library or something.
And then we have the double-barrel shotgun in this game using the same sound as normal shotgun in HL2 (the sound that NPCs use). They definitely used the same libraries as Valve did for their games at the time.
@@deepsnow4994 and using similar looking scientist to the one from HL1 . probably they are fan of HL but man . is it hard to make a good HL2 like game .
TIMESPLITTERS 2 MENU MUSIC SPOTTED
I feel like the AN-94 showing up in Russian games around then is akin to XM8s or SCARs showing up in American games
Could you maybe make a video on Bet on Soldier it's a fun shooter from the same people that now make the WRC Rally games
How did they go from making mediocre shooters to making a direct competitor to the Dirt series?
@@brawler5760 I have no clue, I suppose they got the license and just started making them and kept doing it because it worked.
Also in my opinion BoS isn't that bad.
It has a lot of pretty well thought out design structures but yes the game is janky as hell.
this is like gopnik ubersoldier
I was hoping this would be like a parody game from New Blood Interactive with the idea being "what if DUSK was a 2012 game?" kinda like DUSK '82
Quite epic. I just woke up.
That prison corridor looks straight from HL2.
Instead of the whole "time loop skip" bullshit they couldve pulled a "memory induced hallucination"
Hello Jarek, I Know yoi dont really into mobile gaming but, will you review Modern Combat 1, 2, 3 4 & 5 (Call Of Duty clone) ? I really want to see about your analysis on gameloft modern combat. I want reallh want to see each modern combats separate videos, thank you : )
I kinda agree, the graphics of this game isnt that bad specially if the game company is not as large as most AAA game companies. If possible would you also try to review Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, since it is the epilogue of quake 2, I think....
I think people forgot that a lot of games looked like crap back in 2007, it’s just that Halo 3, CoD4, and Crysis were the standouts. Oh and also the Orange Box.
i hope you do Xenus 1 and Xenus 2
I liked da oh in da beginnin
Got reminded for some reason of liquidator 2, you should play that game if you can find it anywhere. Its just as janky ans weird
Why does the background music at 14:38 ring so many bells? i know ive heard it before
Its from Timesplitters 2 I think
@@samz8691 Yes thats where ive heard it :D love that game! thanks!
Great vid. But pls play Hellforces. Its also made by them but i think that its from 2005 and its available on myabandonware
5:50 Thats the guy from half life
Территория Тьмы - a name of this game on Eastern Europe
I feel like there’s two types of people. Guys who love this channel and it’s content and guys who haven’t discovered it yet. Also nice to see a 5.45mm rifle get some love. It’s such a wildly underrated cartridge and it’s effect on soft targets is absolutely devastating within its range of lethality. Genuine VSS’s are absolutely phenomenal and a bit quirky in terms of European weapon platforms, a local member of a Sunni group my unit worked alongside with in Al-Kut in 07 had one he cherished and while I never utilized it in a gunfight even just firing at static targets on a range it had its own type of charm to it
Best of the Kursk.
Seems to be similar game to You Are Empty. Crazy, janky, fun.
I mean You Are Empty had a better atmosphere and a much better story or at least a better synopsis.
It looks like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. with butter smeared on everything
What up Jarek. Here is the funniest story is that the Russian voice acting did the same thing with Serious Sam:Serbian Mayhem as Dusk 12 game 🤣😂🤣😂😂😂🤣
Shit, now I wanna play this game :D
12:20 *Payday 2 flashbacks*
Here's hoping he'll cover the 2005 Area-51 game.
He already did, I believe.
I am requesting Pariah for the original xbox :)
