What blows my mind is that the studio behind this game went from making the Evil Within games to one of the most lighthearted and fun adventures of 2023.
28:01 has a miniscule detail that goes very unnoticed. When Chai is tumbling through the robots he only says "sorry" on the tech robot because they're buddy buddy. It's so minor but its such a nice detail and touch. 50:48 I'm also just amazed that the devs thought this far ahead to generate this response for a special that people may rarely use. That's so god damn funny and based.
TBH it may even be their downfall. Sony apparently wanted it to do better. But when a game has no marketing and is half the price of most AAA games and relied on only word of mouth it's actually a miracle it did so well regardless.
@@justsomeannoyingredpanda it’s a small mistake it happens, I looked it up because I would be depressed if hi fi rush didn’t meet goals and actually, Xbox was happy with it, and praised tango game works
This game has a lacked of marketing but got tons of positive from critics,became the best game ever made and yet this game release just a day after first reveal.
in all honesty. it was better this way. cause they wanted to blow people minds and thats exactly what they did. anything, even a little trailer would have just lessen the enourmous impact that this game had when it came out . People started to play, and then they told others to play and then these people told they favorit youtuber to play it....the game IS the marketing.
so Corsica was based from Tea blend called "Corsican Pear Spice". A tea blend mix with dried pear, apple, orange blossom, and cinnamon. the taste was like a pear tea with cinnamon on it. You can add 1 teaspoon of sugar or dash of milk if needed
I've said it once and I'll say it a thousand times, this games style was a gift from God. The constant 3d to 2d switching and the everything being to the beat gave me a level of happiness I nver thought possible. Also, DiD yOu KnOw ThE mAiN cHaRaCtEr Is VoIcEd By RoBbIe DaYmOnD oMg!?!?!?
The best way I can describe the game aesthetically is if Arcsystem Works (the team behind Dragonball FighterZ and Guilty Gear) made a singleplayer game.
33:06 Best first try ever Kaname Date- FUCK YEAH! 47:59 Applejacks commercial- Here I come, I am CNMN 50:57 I had no idea that would happen Fun fact- There was suppose to be a boss that was a caffeine addict and would wolf out if he didn't have his coffee fix, the Roqueford fight and the machines making decaf were the results of splitting those ideas up
This game has something that you usually only get from Indie games. That special something. This game was raised and nurtured, a product of love and passion. That a team a s big as Tango Gameworks could capture something that usually just the smallest teams can... just breathtaking!
This is genuinely one of my contenders for GotY, it has so much passion going for it, and no gameplay can truly show you how *good* the gameplay feels. Seriously, even if you have watched a full unedited playthrough, pick it up if you can
Dude, the little stuff like them complaining about you leaving the game, or 808's special attack not working on Kale because is a dog person are what make this game such a masterpiece
I think you’re the first streamer I’ve watched (so far) who actually caught Korsika xD This is already my Game of the Year!! I love it so much and am so glad you enjoyed it ❤
The references in this game make it so much nicer: - the cat's (no, i don't care about any other name) collar's medal's design (lots of sss) looks similar to the metallica logo if you look on the sides - mr. walking jojo reference and so much more, and it all makes the game so much fun (not to mention the actual gameplay, story and artstyle)
After watching this video I found out about the existence of this game and now I have just finished playing through it a few weeks later! Man this was such a fun ride, so thanks for getting me into this :D
I LOVE how Kale's reason for resorting to mind control is so petty 😆Like "People are so needy yet indecisive, and it's so annoying UGH!" "So anyway, I installed neural links to everyone's brain that'll rewrite their minds so they'll buy whatever I'm selling."
The [RUclips] censoring has spread at least this far. It's fun to see unexpected crossovers. RTGame's jab at YT here, ShyLily and RussianBadger "competing" for more energy drink flavor sales - honestly i'd love to hear about or see other unexpected content creator crossovers
Loved this series live! I've been waiting for this video! Thanks for the wonderful streams and looking forward to reliving the moments through this video!
Watched this game for the first time a day ago and love it. The quality of it is unlike most games I've seen lately and it just made me want more. I'd love it if DLC was added in at some point that showed the campus through maybe another character since we never really saw any of the other people enrolled in the campus and I'd like to see what the curriculum was like. Feel like they could have a field day with that one.
Anyone ever play Evolution: The World of Sacred Device? It was a fun RPG on the Dreamcast, and this game reminds me of it for one reason: the names. This game has spices for all the characters' names for this, while in Evolution, all the names were from weapons.
11:58 - *Pavitr Prabhakar:* What did you just say? Chai Tea?! "Chai" means "Tea", bro!! You saying "Tea-Tea"!!! Would i ask you for a Coffee-Coffee with a room for Cream-Cream?!
This game had the soundtrack and artstyle of the Spider-Verse Movies, the humor, lovable characters and gameplay of an Insomniac Game with the heartwarming story of an award winning animated movie! Who wouldn’t love this game?! And for that, we thank you and Bethesda Games for producing and playing a truly one of a kind experience from start to finish!
38:08 i know this might is a stretch, but i heard someone point out that this is a reference to Majima Construction. And as unlikely as it is, i cant stop thinking aboit it 😅
This game is incredibly special to me; I am obsessed. It's an extremely rare case where not only am I actively aiming to achieve 100%, but I've been watching your vods, as well as several other streamers', watched my own friends stream it on discord or twitch, and I have a fucking tattoo appointment to get Chai's music player cybernetic. I love this game so much, to the point where I'm surprised I'm not burnt out on it in the slightest.
So, most people know that Tango game studios worked on the Evil Within prior to this, which is pretty insane given how radically different these games are... But Tango Games studios is founded by Shinji Mikami, who previously worked on God Hand for the PS2, but also Shadows of the Damned and worked with Platinum Games on Vanquish... He actually has quite a history of making action games.
33:25 I love that this is the point where most people immediately realize what his actual goal is And it's at least 50% worse 36:01 I know I'm ridiculously late but I just have to say Chai just has so much integrity. He may be an idiot with stupid dreams and a big heart, but he's your idiot with stupid dreams and a big heart, whoever you are.
Well if you all like Mr Robbie Dimmadome, He also plays River Ward in Cyberpunk (Fem Vs male dating option) And guy who packs a FUCKNG REVOLVER AS HIS MAIN GUN he hands to you before the “fun” scene
The original soundtrack is nice and all... Check out the licensed soundtrack after the game, check out what you're missing out on cause streaming good songs is illegal
Before doing the second least level i should have left the game bc i had dinner(or lunch, idr rn) and then they roasted me so much too. Fun fact: if you quit and refresh the game WHILE you are in Macaron's hideout they all get confused bc the game puts you in the main hideout and all of the gang goes:"What in the actual f*** is going on?"
This game is so good! like damn this game came out of no where in 2023! and it sure is very fun! like damn it is basically devil may cry with robots and even with rhythm. And I even do like the art styles for this game too! which damn seeing the way this video game has makes it look like you're playing a 2000s cartoon game which in a good Way though which this game has to be one of the most coolest things ever for 2023 to have.
Chai: Pure of Heart, Dumb of Ass
Akechi: Pure of Ass, Dumb of Heart
Robbie Daymond can do both
Chai is when Prompto becomes the main character.
@@satyakisil4289 THAT'S why his Chai voice was familiar!!!!
Sholmes: Pure of Heart, Pure of Smart
(At the end)
Such a great necklace
Chai is simultaneously badass and incompetently stupid
What blows my mind is that the studio behind this game went from making the Evil Within games to one of the most lighthearted and fun adventures of 2023.
A little balance is good
Sometimes it's good to get out of your comfort zone.😁
I just love they made Evil Within callback cameos.
Ghostwire Tokyo is a fun lighthearted adventure depending on your perspective but also your not wrong. I love this game’s soundtrack
It's sad we won't get a another evil within game and the fact that Joseph is alive and it's weird they didn't do dlc for evil within 2
Fun fact: CrystAAHHL is actually voiced by Robbie Daymond
The more you know!
Common misconception. It's actually voiced by Robbo Daytona
Uhhh… I know a forced meme/joke-run-into-the-ground when I hear one… I'll take a bad pun any day of the week.
Correction, it's actually Robin Dominic
@@djoshawott2850 isn't it Rubber Danish?
you mean Rabie Diamond

@@justsomeannoyingredpanda except…Sony had nothing to do with this game. It’s not even available for PlayStation

Hi-Fi rush: YOU FOOL! I *AM* THE MARKETING!
It wasn't the day after, it was shadowdropped the same day.
“FOOL! HI-FI RUSH MARKETS AS IT PLEASES!”
Yeah, the first reveal _was_ the release

Okay so what about Zanzo? Is he the only name outlier then?
@@stephanniemorinAsian sparkling water
This is is the closest we'll get to Akechi and Futaba being siblings for a minute
Which is pretty messed up, all things considered…
12:01 what did you just say?... Chai tea?! Chai means Tea Bro, your saying tea tea
Do you say coffee coffee with room for cream cream?
No!
...no.
Glad I watched that before so I understand
amazing movie deserves an Oscar
How to trigger Mumbhatten with a single sentence.
15:38 This is a Futaba moment, also Peppermint’s VA voices Futaba
Yo, really?!
@@thegreendragon5390 Yep, look it up
Something about Chai going "AAAAAA" with all the scores being A at 8:21
Delightfully perfect!
@@mb2001 just like Nugget and Kiryu.
The handful of times I’ve seen it it’s all As so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s scripted

Hi fi rush made me shocked in a way I hadn't been since I played Hades in 2021. The quality is ridiculously good, it hits the spot just right.
It's touched me so much that I really want it to earn its recognition during the Game Awards.
33:06 Best first try ever
Kaname Date- FUCK YEAH!
47:59 Applejacks commercial- Here I come, I am CNMN
50:57 I had no idea that would happen
Fun fact- There was suppose to be a boss that was a caffeine addict and would wolf out if he didn't have his coffee fix, the Roqueford fight and the machines making decaf were the results of splitting those ideas up

It’s amazing that Robbie Daymond voiced every character in this game such amazing voice talent
This game was Scott Pilgrim, Devil May Cry and Guitar Hero all rolled up into one epic package.
54:09 Did you know Robbie daymond voices the main character of the game
I think you mean Rabie Daumond-Di-Dai-Dommond-Diamond-Dammit
Ah true my mistake I meant rannie doobie wah
This game's sense of humor is amazing.
Dude, the little stuff like them complaining about you leaving the game, or 808's special attack not working on Kale because is a dog person are what make this game such a masterpiece
50:53 WHAAAAT I DIDNT KNOW HE REACTING TO THE CAT OMGGG
How I would describe this game:Natural Stupidity versus Atificial Intelligence.
I'm so confused how no one ever seems to notice that CNMN's real name is CRAP
I see a lot of people notice and then just never mention it but just go "Oh I get it" or something lol
I think you’re the first streamer I’ve watched (so far) who actually caught Korsika xD
This is already my Game of the Year!! I love it so much and am so glad you enjoyed it ❤
Also at the same time, not simping for Korsica.
Back here because RIP Tango Gameworks I’m lowkey in mourning D:
They're back with a sequel in the works!
They got bought back, the devs got rehired, and they are making a sequel
HI-FI RUSH LIVES ON!
Fun fact: The voice actor for peppermint is Erica lindback, the VA for Futaba sakura :)
"Chai tea?!" "Chai" means "tea", Crystal! You're saying "tea tea!" Would I ask you for a coffee-coffee with room for cream-cream?!
The references in this game make it so much nicer:
- the cat's (no, i don't care about any other name) collar's medal's design (lots of sss) looks similar to the metallica logo if you look on the sides
- mr. walking jojo reference
and so much more, and it all makes the game so much fun (not to mention the actual gameplay, story and artstyle)
After watching this video I found out about the existence of this game and now I have just finished playing through it a few weeks later! Man this was such a fun ride, so thanks for getting me into this :D
this game feels like the spider verse of video games it feels like a comic book come to life
I’m proud of my contribution as Rumpelstiltskin Dinkleburg breaking Crystahl 😹
Dinkleberg...
I LOVE how Kale's reason for resorting to mind control is so petty 😆Like "People are so needy yet indecisive, and it's so annoying UGH!"

38:19
kale screaming "ALL OF THEM" was a reference to the movie "The Professional" from Jean Reno, im pretty sure
YES!!! I’m so happy you’re experiencing this game as well!
Also, someone PLEASE add the Smash Bros KO effect with Chai falling off at 51:13
Loved this series live!
I've been waiting for this video!
Thanks for the wonderful streams and looking forward to reliving the moments through this video!
The news of the update bringing new game modes and costumes is AWESOME. I’m absolutely in love with this game
The game is just made with so much charm and love. It's really special.
12:01 what did you just say? CHAI TEA!?
"Dude's just living in his own world" that's it that's the game
Watched this game for the first time a day ago and love it. The quality of it is unlike most games I've seen lately and it just made me want more. I'd love it if DLC was added in at some point that showed the campus through maybe another character since we never really saw any of the other people enrolled in the campus and I'd like to see what the curriculum was like.

This game with no marketing managed to be one of my games of the year.
Everytime i play or see this game i just cry remembering my first playthrough, i just love this game. Thanks Tango Gameworks for this masterpiece ❤️😸
Truly a one of a kind game.
This is something I'd rather see remastered later on rather than a sequel, just to keep it special.
Crystaahhl will love Persona 5, the voice of Chai, Rabbie Diamond, plays a role in that game. Ik ik, obscure indie game, but totes worth it
Damn! It's a really fun and wholesome game. I can't fathom how much I've felt. This game man, I can tell the devs had so much fun making this game.

Oh cool, Shen also played hi-fi rush.
Isn't that the person that is voiced by Robbie Dobbie?

Who wouldn’t love this game?! And for that, we thank you and Bethesda Games for producing and playing a truly one of a kind experience from start to finish!
Just finished the game myself. Definitely the best game I played this year. And I already played FF16 and ToTK before this game :)
23:41 oh my god you've adopted the RUclips swear.
0:50 omg is that Rabie Daumond-Di-Dai-Dommond-Diamond-Dammit
I can't believe Robbie Downie Jr. plays every character in the game
Don’t worry I have the same problem remembering voice actor name. Especially my favorite who did Marianne and Haru.
Did you know the main character is voiced by the same voice actor as Hubert from fe3h
And as Goro Akechi from Persona 5 and as Prompto Argentum from Final Fantasy XV ^^
Actually, this game even post-game content!
New cutscenes, new ways to play, even NEW ENDING! (True ending to be precise)
Check that game out!
I love how Rompliey Dayumunn is pretty much just Bennyduct Cucumberpatch but cooler

Now I seriously want to play this game
Chai has SO MUCH RON STOPPABLE ENERGY!
Great, new excuse to replay the game again! 🤣 Glad you loved the game, it's definitely the best!
33:25
I love that this is the point where most people immediately realize what his actual goal is
And it's at least 50% worse
36:01
I know I'm ridiculously late but I just have to say
Chai just has so much integrity. He may be an idiot with stupid dreams and a big heart, but he's your idiot with stupid dreams and a big heart, whoever you are.
Your expressions are really priceless throughout everything!! XD
Well if you all like Mr Robbie Dimmadome,
He also plays River Ward in Cyberpunk (Fem Vs male dating option)
And guy who packs a FUCKNG REVOLVER AS HIS MAIN GUN he hands to you before the “fun” scene
I just finished Hi Fi Rush an hour ago, Hi Fi Rush is such a gem, you don't see games like this anymore
Finally she has did it boys
This was such a fun video to watch!
Necrodancer walked so this game could run
The edited version is finally upon us!
I did'nt knew I was waiting for this but I was definetely waiting for this
Crystahl you should probably check out Tales of Zesteria it has Robbie Diamond or what ever as main character.
omg is that Robbie Rotten?
Yesssssssssss me and my partner are playing this together and it’s one of the best games we’ve played in recent memory we love it so much! ^^
LETS GOOOO THE HIGHLIGHTS ARE UP!!!
Love this game so much
Gotta love this game. It was so fun.
Absolute Masterpiece
Actually such an unbelievable banger of a game
The original soundtrack is nice and all... Check out the licensed soundtrack after the game, check out what you're missing out on cause streaming good songs is illegal
12:07 - hey, that's me! Good job, me!
I love how Korsica is the Straight-Man archetype of the humor only because she's too stressed & exhausted to keep up with everyone's shenanigans
Does Roquefort still count as a furry even though he's a robot?
The furry community already thought of that, they're called Protogens i think
Which is just robot furries
@@dafire9634 Wonder how that name came about
guys im so happy Chai is voiced by The pancake Lord, Robin Swarovski themselves
Crystaahl is never gonna live the Rabbi Dohmond thing down is she?
Before doing the second least level i should have left the game bc i had dinner(or lunch, idr rn) and then they roasted me so much too.
Fun fact: if you quit and refresh the game WHILE you are in Macaron's hideout they all get confused bc the game puts you in the main hideout and all of the gang goes:"What in the actual f*** is going on?"
Shinji Mikami is the producer, not surprised. This and Vanquish are some of his best work.
"What did you say?? -Chai Tea-? Chai means tea dude, you're saying Tea Tea!"
Inside of every good person is an even gooder Robbie Duynmyan
This game is so good! like damn this game came out of no where in 2023! and it sure is very fun! like damn it is basically devil may cry with robots and even with rhythm.
And I even do like the art styles for this game too! which damn seeing the way this video game has makes it look like you're playing a 2000s cartoon game which in a good
Way though which this game has to be one of the most coolest things ever for 2023 to have.
"Am I like Iron Man?"
So Chai IS Robert Downie Jr.
