13:33 I don't know what's happening here, but infamously in chapter 1 when Petra tells you to make a stone sword, you can instead make a lever. That lever will sit in your inventory for the entire game until chapter four, where you then get a chance place it down to bypass a puzzle. Then the next time you pick up a lever, Jesse is all like. "Oh, my old friend."
I believe that + being mean to Lucas in EVERY single interaction with him is one of the few times in a telltale game your past decisions actually sort of mattered, even if it's something small like skipping that lever puzzle with the one you crafted ages ago as a joke, or Lucus being mad you treated him like shit the entire game lol and I REALLY wish there was more of that (havent played the sequel game so idk if more of that happened there)
I love mcd, but "they had to kill it off for legends" is not true. They didn't kill it off for legends, Legends was in production for a long time, while minecraft dungeons was still doing good.
@@Key-Knight87Same. It's good but not as good as other games. Plus it has that telltale disease of choices not mattering most of the time. Story is good but its not as replayable as others with how linear the story is.
@@Key-Knight87I agree. As an average Telltale games enjoyer, it definitely could've been better. So much better. The writing quality isn't great, especially in season 1. I had some good time with it, but I'd still play something else. Like TWD, TWAU, Tales from the Borderlands, The Batman games ect. And yeah, Telltale should make your choices impact your story in some major way. Not just "who will live or who will die" like in TWD season 4, even if your choices in that game do matter to some extent. I agree with the video, but considering the circumstances in which those games were developed and the stupid decisions made by the management, no wonder some of these games were....mid.

Like a month ago anti-softlock software from story mode went viral because you were supposed to craft a sea lantern and you could craft prismarine. It lets you fail 3 times until Petra just pulls one out she already had.
It feels very cobbled together, HITMAN 1 was with SQUARE ENIX as their publisher, so they had access to make those lovely 3d animated cutscenes and was episodic . The tone of HITMAN 1 feels slightly darker and serious. HITMAN 2 IOI became an independent publisher, so the story and the cutscenes just became animated stills which sucked! And probably impacted the choices they could make for the story. While HITMAN 3 went with Warner Bros as the publisher, so we got in engine cutscenes.

I'm sort of a Minecraft spinoff lover, and your criticism of Story Mode extremely well made! I used to enjoy the playthroughs years ago, and only realized the flaws after playing it through dubious means. The head canon you came up with was leaps and bounds ahead of what actually came to fruition. So glad that you enjoyed Dungeons for what it is. It gets decently hard at/around Apocalypse+. The gilding of tools adds dept, but it's the same deal as enchanting: shallow, tool only improvements. The flow and *eccentricity* of your content has me thinking back to the older days of RUclips, with slightly awkward IRL skits (sorta like AVGN). It's a breath of fresh air from the traditional, stale video essays that plague our site today. The lack of a sponsor also helps! I don't comment much, but the fact that you frequently (and loudly at 3:17) have an opinion and are willing to argue it with an edge makes you stand out from the crowd. Perfect video :3
I am a Minecraft: Story Mode lover myself, but all the criticisms in this video about it I completely understand. It also made me realize how misleading their motto of "Your choices matter". The story only ever changes for that section but the output is the same, It's a linear game disguised as a choose your own story game. Your additions or ideas at the end of the Season Two segment were really good aswell, which would actually make your choices matter in the long run, thank you for the insights, Psycho-gerg!
one of the dumbest things is that you CAN save the building in the competition in MC Story Mode and be the winners, but even though Axel mentions that the winners of the contest would meet gabriel the warrior, they never actually get to meet him until they have to ask him for help and they dont get allowed to enter
10:23 no? I’ve played through Minecraft story mode a few times and I do remember there being an option path that allows you to keep your build from burning, which makes you win the building competition.
I believe that is by asking your friends to stay while you go find Reuben alone or something like that.... I know in Popularmmos's playthrough they saved the build.
I still play Minecraft dungeons occasionally with friends. The weapon synergies are hysterical. You end up Barely scraping by while fighting hoards, and then against the odds you melt the boss enemy in a matter of seconds with the nuttiest weapon you randomly found. I would totally buy a Minecraft dungeons sequel for the multiplayer gameplay
In Minecraft dungeons, there are villagers that you can find in side quests throughout the levels, that do allow you you upgrade the weapons that you want and also purchase more weapons
I’m sure Minecraft story mode sucked bad to play, but when watching my favourite Minecraft RUclipsr play it, it no longer was a flaw that it was a movie.
storymode on netflix was limited here are a list of downgrades netflix had: 1. when axel and the girl are arguing on what the group should build, jessie cant suggest his own build (zombie) 2. you cannot take the custom armor in Netflix, paying respect to whoever you chose to sacrifice Ig? 3. no episodes 6, 7,8 4. the biggest one: no moving around.
Good video, but damn this is one hell of a surface level review of Dungeons lol. There are ways to upgrade your gear, you find the blacksmith which allows you to upgrade your gear's power level *and* reclaim the enchantment points. The sort of complexity you seek also exists in the later difficulties of the game where you unlock more enchantment slots and more gear, and the variety of builds also increase very drastically. And also I am not sure how the DLCs cost you $60..? The base game + DLCs cost me $40. It might be that the prices are higher on steam maybe?
legends was definitely horrific, but story mode was absolute cinema and dungeons had a fun gameplay loop. id rather play story mode or dungeons than bedrock edition tbh
Very bold of him to dump on Story Mode and Dungeons. If the "Lack of player involvement" in a STORY-CENTERED GAME causes him to rage, he will go NUCLEAR over the Metal Gear Solid series...
A German RUclipsr (named Jodarum) also played the story mode; he chose to find Magnus and later wear his armor. It turns out: While Jessie is in Boom Town, Olivia goes to get Elegard, and Magnus later died, and then Elegard left. Crap.
@@Rafaelyayayay there are no good parts dawg I played through the whole game The ending is basically always the same and the few times any decision does something it changes like 10 minutes of screentime Plus compare it to any game with the same "your choices make a difference" scheme and it's just terrible by comparison
@@Big-AzumarillThe Story is Great I have no idea what you're on about. The story is about minecraft as a whole and what it is to the player, the Story is literally Minecraft as a whole not just a random story put in a Minecraft setting. For example the Order of the Stone is the type of player you are. Gabriel PVP Player, Magnus Griefer, Elleguard Redstoner, Soren Builder. Also Ruebens death is so emotional, peak storytelling. You either never played or watched people play the game or watched like 10 minutes of it and feel you know everything about it.
@@Dynasty954 The story is not great. It's only surface level enough to hold a gameplay. The only thing season 1 done right was the Wither Storm. The characters are just bland. Even though, they defeat the Wither, the cast haven't grown or overcome any struggle, with the exception to Ivor. He's like the only interesting character.
@@thacium You're right, Reubens death wasn't any struggle. A group of people finding out that the heros they look up to are frauds wasn't any struggle. There wasn't any change between Axel being grumpy and rude at the start, there was no change between Olivia being disappointed in herself and believe they can't do anything without the order to being confident. I'll give you that the gameplay is lacking but what is Minecraft Story Mode. It's a series, season 1 episode 1. It is made as Story of the experience of Minecraft with gameplay elements and I think it does what it's trying to do perfectly. And to the fact that your actions don't change the story much, I'll agree but it was the first ever minecraft spinoff. Do you really think they had a high enough budget to make the Story change that much, with new animations and voicelines. They would've had to have a budget 2-3x what they actually had to make it happen. It was the first ever spinoff, they weren't going to risk that much money. Also some of the actions you chose had massive chqnges to the story. For example when you chose to go with Axel or Olivia, half of episode 2 would be completely different. I'm sticking to my opinion that Storymode is peak, I still think you either never played it or watched it all the way through.
What another amazing video talking about Minecraft Spinoffs Gotta appreciate the fact that just like Tehsnaker, actually decided to talk about the themes of Season 2 MCSM may have been bad but at least it tried to tell a story with sincerity, I can't say the same about -the- a movie The schizophrenic meltdown you had is amazing and I love your unhinged jokes, it's RTgame's jokes but better You keep going with your criticism, you beautiful sadist
I watched @Tehsnakers video 2 days ago, I wish I had seen it before I wrote my script. I think he does a way way way better job than me at breaking down the themes of the game, same with the walking dead. Comparing the Telltale formulae of choice as more of an illusion. But I was quite pleasantly surprised at how our scripts had some similarities especially in season 2.
The funniest part about story mode is that the furst 4 episodes were made into a Netflix interactive series, it was pretty fun, and even better the choices actually mattered 😂
Gerg, i love minecraft storymode, but you can actually win the building competition if you save Reuben and you get Axel and Olivia to save the statue, you made loads of good points though.
Ye nah. Story is good but not the best. I've read better interactive stories. And ones where some choices actually affect the story so hard that you get a whole new plotline. In addition, QTE is not gameplay. Its just a storytelling tool, not a game. Pretty much just an interactive movie. And as that, its not as good as others. Idk why you praise it aside from nostalgia.
My usual strategy whenever I play Minecraft Legends is to get like 5 stone golems(they specialize in breaking buildings) and fill all of he other free places with mossy golems(they heal you and golems) and be invincible.
33:53 to be fair I played story mode on my Wii U when it released and found out the other episodes costed money so I just looked it up on youtube, maybe if the other episodes were free for an already paid game I would've considered it
10:20 Well actually, Gerg, that is one of the little moments where your choice does actually impact the story very slightly, as if you tell Axel and Olivia to stay behind, the statue will not burn, and thus you win. What does that change in the story? I think Lukas says something slightly different later on, but that's just contained the chapter 1.
Somehow the high quality audio from the voice over has been ingrained in my brain as THE gerg voice. Now, everytime I see gerg irl, my brain thinks that's a different person. Every five minutes when it cuts between a voice over and a sketch I'm like hey, who the **** is this.
New minigame idea: Create a mario party board, but the minigames at the end of the turns are actually all of the ones that you have built. So I guess you would be playing a microgame in a minigame in a videogame.
Ok I agree what you’ve said about dungeons but I CANNOT agree with you perfer legends over story mode season 2 💀 legends didn’t last even a week it was abandoned
Hey Gerg i really liked this video as someone who played all these for a long time and my opnions are pretty close to yours but i did want to point out that in dungeons you can get a blacksmith to power up anything so if you wanted that wolf armor to have more health than you can just power it up. I know this isnt super relevant but the dlcs are genuinely really fun because they are so different from the main game with all the new enemies. Anyways, keep it up!
As a big dungeons fan I kinda agree with everything you said. I now realise that I love that game so much probably because of its art style. The point of its progression being only in the gear you get I think it was intentional to be more like Minecraft. Also, I dont think the artifacts were mentioned in the video which are probably the most fun way to enhance your combat
Calling Story Mode terrible without playing chapters 5-8 (THE BEST CHAPTERS) is one thing, but calling Reuben a stupid pig?? We need cancel culture back.
I will not tolerate this Story Mode slander, Story Mode (just like anything in your childhood) is meant to be looked at with the most amount of bias ever, because everyone knows 90% of the stuff you played or watched has a child is actual garbage, and that bias and nostalgia are the barriers that keep your childhood intact and stop you from looking back and having tons of regrets, so L + Ragebait + Story Mode is GOATED + Modern Minecraft Sucks + I haven't seen the Minecraft Movie, but IDC so it sucks (I still like Minecraft Story Mode tho)
I will say that there were some parts of the game that you didn’t mention that come with the main gameplay. For one, the blacksmith can upgrade your favorite weapons to level up with you. Then there are the ancient hunts and the tower level. Both challenging environments that have more cool level design and interesting bosses. Finally you have the secret levels. All of these are just additional content you can play through, and I personally found them all to be fun. While they don’t necessarily offer more in the core gameplay, they offer more complex environments and enemies, which I think makes up for that.
Dungeons was and is a really fun game to play even though support for it ended a while ago and even when it had its flaws. Storymode was fun for what it was. It wasn't great but its certainly better than the MC movie 😭 Legends... *We don't talk about it*
Minecraft dungeons nether dlc is actually really fun you sacrifice items to get a completely random level generation, the better the items the more rewarding the level will be, then you need to explore the entire level and find these rooms containing really hard bosses that give you really good loot for defeating. I think if they made more creative features like this it could have easily been a 8/10 game.
I have Spent years making Content of this game, It was such a great game Only issue happened after the end of DLC's as they stoped giving better content. Great video
I genuinely remembered seeing people glaze story mode when the trailer for the minecraft movie dropped, I was there as a kid too, it was not that good bro💀

It is made as Story of the experience of Minecraft with gameplay elements and I think it does what it's trying to do perfectly. And to the fact
that your actions don't change the story much, I'll agree but it was the first ever minecraft spinoff. Do you really think they had a high enough budget to make the Story change that much, with new animations and voicelines. They would've had to have a budget 2-3x what they actually had to make it happen. It was the first ever spinoff, they weren't going to
risk that much money. Also some of the actions you chose had massive chqnges to the story. For example when you chose to go with Axel or Olivia, half of episode 2 would be
completely different. I'm sticking to my opinion that Storymode is peak, I still think you either never played it or watched it all the way through.
What another amazing video talking about Minecraft Spinoffs
Gotta appreciate the fact that just like Tehsnaker, actually decided to talk about the themes of Season 2
MCSM may have been bad but at least it tried to tell a story with sincerity, I can't say the same about -the- a movie
The schizophrenic meltdown you had is amazing and I love your unhinged jokes, it's RTgame's jokes but better
You keep going with your criticism, you beautiful sadist
I watched @Tehsnakers video 2 days ago, I wish I had seen it before I wrote my script. I think he does a way way way better job than me at breaking down the themes of the game, same with the walking dead.
Comparing the Telltale formulae of choice as more of an illusion. But I was quite pleasantly surprised at how our scripts had some similarities especially in season 2.
the movie isn't thart bad though, judging by the second trailer at least
@@Salt_Enjoyer it's slightly better, but it's still not good lol
@@naganut9718 it's really unique tho i'd definitely watch it
watching gerg destroy that xbox 360 hurt my soul a little bit
what would you chose
gerg being unhinged about story mode
OR
gerg being unhinged about minecraft movie
hi obbyzz
Movie, I'm still waiting for him to dump on the official trailer
He made the 3 block jump for both of them
@@bottleofsyrup9916 Here in parkour civilization, no one jumps for story mode. It is safer to jump for the minecraft movie.
Hi 0bbyzz, still remember what you did?
The part of this video where he talks about Minecraft Story Mode is literally "British man doscovers visual novel"
The funniest part about story mode is that the furst 4 episodes were made into a Netflix interactive series, it was pretty fun, and even better the choices actually mattered 😂
Gerg, i love minecraft storymode, but you can actually win the building competition if you save Reuben and you get Axel and Olivia to save the statue, you made loads of good points though.
THATS why Jessie sounded familiar lmao
Okay but Minecraft Dungeons is an absolute banger that expands off the lore and plays really fun
we all owe an apology to minecraft story mode, it cant be worse than the movie
The movie that hasn’t been released yet?
I didn’t even know people hated Story Mode until the first movie trailer came out
I don’t owe an apology, I love story mode
The movie's not looking that bad tho??
bot comment
Seing Gerg without his typical tie makes him look like an entirely different person.
Gerg IRL looks like someone the MC Gerg would bully
Ngl minecraft story mode was better as a netfix show bc it atleast wasn't trying to be a game, and feels better as a show
Also, the lightning was pretty much updated/improved on the Netflix version.
55:26 “as a child… i yearned for the mines.”
Minecraft spin-offs are the video game equivalent of Streaming Services "hit it and quit it" shows
i wish dungeons got more recognition from the playerbase it is such a good game
calling minecraft story mode anything but peak cinema is worthy of state prosecution
Ye nah. Story is good but not the best. I've read better interactive stories. And ones where some choices actually affect the story so hard that you get a whole new plotline.
In addition, QTE is not gameplay. Its just a storytelling tool, not a game. Pretty much just an interactive movie. And as that, its not as good as others. Idk why you praise it aside from nostalgia.
Cinema? Maybe even that...
Gaming? Lmao hell nah
@@gugoluna what?
3:26 that granny is so confused
My usual strategy whenever I play Minecraft Legends is to get like 5 stone golems(they specialize in breaking buildings) and fill all of he other free places with mossy golems(they heal you and golems) and be invincible.
Nahh putting story mode in the thumbnail might be the best rage bait tactic I’ve ever seen
I watched story mode on Netflix so I just saw it as a show with some cool choices
This video feels like an advertisement gone wrong
After being a sonic fan living through 2013-2017, story mode looks like shakespeare compared to the bad writing I've seen.
Story mode is childhood. TAKE THAT BACK!!!!
33:53 to be fair I played story mode on my Wii U when it released and found out the other episodes costed money so I just looked it up on youtube, maybe if the other episodes were free for an already paid game I would've considered it
10:20 Well actually, Gerg, that is one of the little moments where your choice does actually impact the story very slightly, as if you tell Axel and Olivia to stay behind, the statue will not burn, and thus you win. What does that change in the story? I think Lukas says something slightly different later on, but that's just contained the chapter 1.
Honestly the criticism you have on story mode is valid, though I love the games for the story, not the gameplay
damn, I have never seen a RUclips Shorts RUclipsr become that good with long type content. I really like your videos, thank you for doing it
Somehow the high quality audio from the voice over has been ingrained in my brain as THE gerg voice. Now, everytime I see gerg irl, my brain thinks that's a different person. Every five minutes when it cuts between a voice over and a sketch I'm like hey, who the **** is this.
New minigame idea: Create a mario party board, but the minigames at the end of the turns are actually all of the ones that you have built. So I guess you would be playing a microgame in a minigame in a videogame.
Ok I agree what you’ve said about dungeons but I CANNOT agree with you perfer legends over story mode season 2 💀 legends didn’t last even a week it was abandoned
Hey Gerg i really liked this video as someone who played all these for a long time and my opnions are pretty close to yours but i did want to point out that in dungeons you can get a blacksmith to power up anything so if you wanted that wolf armor to have more health than you can just power it up. I know this isnt super relevant but the dlcs are genuinely really fun because they are so different from the main game with all the new enemies. Anyways, keep it up!
The thumbnail is the most rage baiting thing I’ve ever seen
As a big dungeons fan I kinda agree with everything you said. I now realise that I love that game so much probably because of its art style. The point of its progression being only in the gear you get I think it was intentional to be more like Minecraft. Also, I dont think the artifacts were mentioned in the video which are probably the most fun way to enhance your combat
Ok, I understand destroying the copy of story mode, but the Xbox 360? Come on man
That was exactly what I was thinking, so many great games on there as well.
To be fair, it could have already cooked itself to death
Such a pointless waste just for a dumb recycled skit that got old a decade ago.
It has been tainted with the data of minecraft story mode
3:19 The commitment to the bit is insane. I would perish from embarrassment.
For Player who played all of these games i can tell that Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Story Mode Season One are worth playing.
Gerg? I never imagined you like this, but it actually makes it better somehow.
46:40 Literally grinned ear-ear hearing that little bit. As someone with 2k hours in Rimworld, a Rimworld/Minecraft game would go HARD.
Gergs version of Minecraft story mode might actually be better than the story we got. They really could do something with that.
Calling Story Mode terrible without playing chapters 5-8 (THE BEST CHAPTERS) is one thing, but calling Reuben a stupid pig?? We need cancel culture back.
Personally I preferred the Wither Storm and Order of the Stone story arc over the portals and old builders but it was all good.
3:17 dude tries to prove a point with being a public nuisance 💀🙏
I will not tolerate this Story Mode slander, Story Mode (just like anything in your childhood) is meant to be looked at with the most amount of bias ever, because everyone knows 90% of the stuff you played or watched has a child is actual garbage, and that bias and nostalgia are the barriers that keep your childhood intact and stop you from looking back and having tons of regrets, so L + Ragebait + Story Mode is GOATED + Modern Minecraft Sucks + I haven't seen the Minecraft Movie, but IDC so it sucks
(I still like Minecraft Story Mode tho)
I will say that there were some parts of the game that you didn’t mention that come with the main gameplay. For one, the blacksmith can upgrade your favorite weapons to level up with you. Then there are the ancient hunts and the tower level. Both challenging environments that have more cool level design and interesting bosses. Finally you have the secret levels.
All of these are just additional content you can play through, and I personally found them all to be fun. While they don’t necessarily offer more in the core gameplay, they offer more complex environments and enemies, which I think makes up for that.
Earth was so bad, it didn't even make it into the video.
Gerg, live action you makes me think of a kids' show host that went his own way and became jaded over the years
Dungeons was and is a really fun game to play even though support for it ended a while ago and even when it had its flaws.
Storymode was fun for what it was. It wasn't great but its certainly better than the MC movie 😭
Legends...
*We don't talk about it*
3:10 I CANT BELIEVE HE ACTUALLY DID THIS
How do Greg and I have the exact same Minecraft Joke Book? The Chances my dude
honestly I really liked your theories and ideas for minecraft storymode, they were very creative imo
The Minecraft movie is already live action. We really don’t need live action Gerg now.
This dude is just what I needed today. Perfect.
Gerg chill dungeons is a great spinoff
I thought the "I have an opinion" joke was him edited into an area... until i realized he actually did that and started laughing.
About the opinions in story mode, being a prick to Lucas during the first few episodes will make you lose a certain episode.
Minecraft dungeons nether dlc is actually really fun you sacrifice items to get a completely random level generation, the better the items the more rewarding the level will be, then you need to explore the entire level and find these rooms containing really hard bosses that give you really good loot for defeating. I think if they made more creative features like this it could have easily been a 8/10 game.
3:40 the portal is literally built wrong
I have Spent years making Content of this game, It was such a great game
Only issue happened after the end of DLC's as they stoped giving better content. Great video
I genuinely remembered seeing people glaze story mode when the trailer for the minecraft movie dropped,
I was there as a kid too, it was not that good bro💀
Well thats the thing; you DON'T have your head up your ass. These people do.
Nostalgia is so powerful sometimes.
