To be fair the pilot helmets were a reward for exploration, and for a bonus you get a trophy if you collect all of them, I know this because I platinumed the game on PS5. The game is also a sci-fi shooter, not meant to be the most realistic game. The titan gameplay isn't that slow, for the most part, you just forgot that titans could sprint & dashes could be used at any point in the game 💀💀
@@MR_ii_5150 A game where you can double jump, wall run, use cloaking abilities & call down a giant ass mech is totally realistic, like fr he's playing it like it's cod 😭😭
What's so bad about changing your guns mid game? You suggest playing with your favorite weapon only (or at least for majority of a campain) but isn't it detrimental to having fun? Won't you just get bored sooner because each encounter will require you the same tactic the weapon allows? That way, when you run out of ammo for your gun and have to pick up another, the game challenges you to change something in your playstyle, no?
I can’t take the review seriously when you refuse to engage with 80% of the games mechanics and game modes and then criticize the game for a lack of depth and content. The single player campaign has always been more of a glorified tutorial for the multiplayer and at no point did it try to hide this. Who the hell complains about lore in a multiplayer fps game. Do you buy COD, battlefield, or Rainbow 6 for the lore? You are comparing titanfalls campaign which has always been an addition to something with the last of us which is a completely single player story game. You then go on about adding nonsensical mechanics like an inventory system which just no. It’s not a sandbox survival game it’s a fast paced movement fps. Which shows you clearly don’t understand anything of what the game is. What makes tf2 good is its multiplayer and gameplay which you refuse to engage with. The clips you’ve shown act like you play with one arm. You either stand still and aim or you walk around. Which is criminal when the game you are playing is a MOVEMENT shooter. At no point should to be just standing still taking pot shots to conserve ammo. The whole point is to jump in spray him down pick up his gun and continue. The whole titan argument is just you not knowing how to play at all. You never dashed used a smoke cloud successfully reflected incoming fire or whatever when in a titan. You never tried to rodeo another titan or meleed it to finish it off. I don’t understand at all why you complain about collectibles when the whole point is to just be additional content to people who like these sort of things. The reward is an achievement and being able to platinum the game on console.
"Titan combat is very slow" Proceeds to walk out in the open and not use any dashes to evade. "Why cant I use every weapon all at once" God forbid you have to actually use a different weapon rather than the best one for a bit. "The collectables serve no purpose at all" Yes, that is why they are called collectables, your goal is to collect them if you want. You don't have to. "This is supposed to be a realistic shooter, why am I collecting stuff?" You are literally a super soldier with a mech, who learns about a superweapon by time travelling through a reasearch facility. I have absolutely no idea where you got the idea this was supposed to be a realistic shooter. What are you going to complain about next? The fact you can pause the game? Most egregious of all, this video is called "Titanfall 2's titans are the weakest part of the game" and you spend about 30 seconds talking about the titans and your only criticism is that it's too slow. Titan combat can be as slow or as fast as you want it to be, something like legion is incredibly slow but tanky with solid dps, while something like ronin is a super fast melee hit and run option with a phase ability. Honestly it just sounds like you didnt experiment with the game at all.
My favorite part was when he asked if players were too dumb to figure out platforming because of the ghosts, then it cuts to him just standing there, taking damage when he has a full dash charge, lmao. Also, the full auto hipfire drove me insane
I like every point in this, however… As a legion main, the combat is still insanely fast when your build is optimized/ when you want it to be 😂 There’s genuinely a way to play for everyone, and my guy was just walking around the map completely disregarding that it’s a MOVEMENT shooter. Instead opting to play it like cod. On the opposite side of that spectrum, (sorta) the Titan combat is *meant* to be slow. It’s the duality of the whole game. But as I said above, the titans have a way to play for everyone.
@@FluidlyDesignedGames I'm glad I'm not the only one, I refuse to believe this guy has as much experience with similar shooters as he claims when he's trying to play a movement shooter like it's a weird mix of valorant and COD.
I don't think this makes sense because the titan fighting can be fast, which is why there are different titans with certain speeds and health, also the weapon part doesn't make sense because if I'm a pilot that's stranded with only me and my titan where am I getting my guns, off of the walls/armory's or off of body's, this isn't implemented in the multiplayer because it has infinite ammo (because we aren't stranded), but if I'm in a giant robot OFC this isn't gonna be speed like on foot, its meant to be complicated, which is why if you cant do it THERES THE AUTO TITAN PLUS THE ASSAULT CHIP (in multiplayer), the campaign is a good start because you get to try out all the weapons, all the titans, meet some of the factions, fight other really strong titans and try out every titan (besides brute, brute isn't in multiplayer), while the titan side is kinda weak, its not so weak to the point it ruins the game, in fact it carries the game so much it makes it more fun. your "facts" more or less are just opinions.
For all of your difficulty complaints, just play insane. As for “titan gameplay being slow”, I feel as though this REALLY gets fixed on higher difficulties or multiplayer, where the slow movement lends itself well to the defensive play style the skewed health and damage numbers making you pick your battles. Pilot gameplay is all about movement skill and gun play, while titan gameplay is focused on resource management first and foremost. They are meant to feel very different for a reason.
The mech gameplay doesn't need to be fixed. Look how he's playing. He doesn't dash or sprint in the mech a single time, and he's pretty obviously not playing on a high difficulty (despite complaining about it) because the grunts are literally standing there, tickling him while he struggles to full auto hipfire an SMG at mid range.
Bro you had me at it being some kind of a review for titanfall, you lost me when you started saying that you didn't even care about the multiplayer. Why am I listening to your review again?
i feel like avocado plays this game just the way he plays halflife 2. and therefore i dont think this would be a fair review. in most of the clips he shows where combat is in the background he just walks around like an old souce game. Titanfall 2 is a fastpaste movement shooter, one look around the environments shows that the "traversal movement" is passivley enforced to be used in combat. now it is true that the titan parts of the game are a bit more slow, it still doesnt mean you should tank all hits and just find healing, try dashing, dodging and using your shield. jump into any multiplayer match and you'll see thats what all the players that enjoys the game are doing. And Avocado, please try the game in a more difficult gamemode, this forces you to move like intended. sorry for bad english🛸🛸
so you want to be able to use your favourite weapon the whole time cos you're too lazy to learn a new one? you're not gonna have fun with just one weapon learn to use the dash, the titans may be technically slow but at higher difficulties the fight is still fast
3:50 PRESS SPACE YOU HAVE 2!!!! DASHES!!! YES APPARENTLY THERE WASN'T ENOUGH HOLOGRAPHIC PILOTS TO TEACH YOU THAT Edit 1 Fucking lengthy? YOU DIDN'T USE IT AT ALL. And i just googled it 6 seconds! Is this soooo long for you? Well i guess you wouldn't know... BECAUSE YOU NEVER USE THEM!!!! 4:47 That's called variety 5:40 YOU HAVE 2!!! PRIMARY WEAPON SLOTS HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED YOU FALLOUT HORDER???? 6:30 Yea kinda agree but its a 10 year old shooter not an open world RPG, they killed ya mentor what more do you need to kill them all back in a shooter game? 7:03 well if you didn't play on easy or medium maybe a whole game would be more interesting and the "Stupid" ai would suddenly be very smart for pre fireing the corners were you once were. Though yea even on master game not that hard 7:26 ITs CALLED VARIETY!!!!!!!! Why in God of war you have to repeatedly press O to open doors or rip someone's head off? Its engaging!!!! 8:02 Wha what? Why they spend resources on a system which is literally just two lines of code and interface? Bro it doesn't take a milion dollars to make a timed dialogue choice system its not that hard what are you even talking about???? 8:45 Just... Don't? Its not like they are in your face its a fun little reward for the exploration, yea it doesn't give you much but its fun. And once again you don't have to gather them you said it yourself they don't give anything (only satisfaction of exploration and an achievement which is beside the point.) 9:05 Did you? What? Bro... Have you seen much titans irl? No? Well i guess that's because Titanfall is a sci-fi setting, not a realistic one. 9:55 YEA LET US JUST REMOVE THE TITAN FROM THE TITANFALL LEAVE JUST THE FALL! 10:24 6 hour campaign in a primary multiplayer shooter is more that enough 10:40 Did.... Did you just say... That titanfall doesn't standout on a gameplay front? Are... What?
@@AlexDiaz-kw8hh Now seeing how you KNOW HOT TO USE A FUCKING FAZE DASH!... You are certainly qualified to talk smak to me... UNLIKE SOMEONE ELSE HERE!!! But yea i dunno why i got so heated over this silly little review. It was funny to rage were there's nothing to rage about, made the vid funny to watch and react to.
I feel like you are both A) muddying the line between subjective and Objective, and B) not understanding things and blaming the game for it. On top of every so often just getting stuff downright wrong.
Bro says he doesn’t like Mechs then says Titanfall is bad because it has mechs….then complains about tutorial aspects showing the player how to wall run?… how miserable are you for complaining so much about how the game teaches you how to play??
I would respect your opinion, however your opinion is just plain stupid. You have good potential to be an actual game reviewing youtuber (with Curious Archive vibes) which is nice. But sadly your opinion is very wrong. Titanfall 2 has Titans because that is their unique mechanic. This is not COD, you play the game by moving and adapting to all the crazy mechanics. Combat in the Campaign is it's own thing and combat in Multiplayer is it's own thing as well. Same goes to Titan and Pilot combat.
If you would be willing to post a video of you in a titan fight, maybe I can see exactly what you are doing that is making titan gameplay so unenjoyable for you. I suffered issues with not using my movement, utilities, and trying to tank damage before I changed my playstyle, and it became far more fun. There is a reason that when you enter BT, the first thing to come online in the titan tutorial section is the defensive ability (vortex shield), then the offensive ability (shoulder rocket pod), and then, and only then the main gun. Titans may be big and beefy, but when you are fighting another titan, they have similarly proportioned weapons, and thus both of you are unarmored to each other.
i feel like half the downsides with the game you listed have a direct in-game solution, and you either didnt know it existed or forgot about it (like the dashing on titans you mentioned, which you hadnt used ever in the clip at the time). Also idk what you got against the random additional things in the game like collectables or dialogue options that took a day to add in since this isnt a singleplayer focused-game. Also where so many games are unnecessarily long for no reason why would you want more length as without a lot more resources it would just be superficial padding, as too many games are long for the sake of being long by stretching 6 hours of gameplay into 60 hours. long campaign w/ low quality will always lose out to a higher quality, short campaign. If its good it should leave you wanting more, wanting a longer game. overall a good vid tho always like to see more game analysis on titanfall, cuz dont get me wrong it has a lot of issues especially in the multiplayer, just not sure all the ones mentioned here apply
What difficulty did you play on. Because saying that the boss fights were easy is flat out wrong. They are simplistic I will grant you that, but Ash (on Master difficulty) was almost as big a spike in difficulty as the Gargoyles in DS1; and this was on my second or third play through. And I didn’t know you could even skip the cutscenes because that’s the only explanation for not finding the story good I can think of. I’m almost inclined to think this video was made for engagement farming due to the sheer volume of takes verging on the asinine.
Edit: I wrote this before I watched the video and seeing that this is only about the single player. I think the contrast between titan gameplay and pilot ganeplay is great. The titans generaly seen as unfun, tone, and northstar, have very passive playstyles. All the others have their own unique and fun playstyle. Legion holds down m1 untill everything is dead. Ronin plays like an Overwatch dive character, disrupting enemy lines. Scorch and monarch play it safe untill they get are given an inch of opportunity, and with it they can take a mile. Ion's versitily makes its gameplay a test of the user's adaptability and creativity. No, the contrast between titans and pilots isn't great when you can just sit at the back od the map and spam tracker rockets. So don't play like that.
The thing about titan combat is that its a titan,it moves good with the dashes and the magority of the skill is in managing loadouts and sinergising the weapons,and the health sistem with the pilot is meant for sliding in and out of combat,before you talk shit about titanfall two,how about you play the game as it was meant to,cuz if the footage is yours then you are quite trash,the movement is vital and you play like if it were cod,did you not notice how you had near laser acuracy from the hip?that is for moving,sliding,running and everything Play the game before you review
There is much more to the lore than milita good IMC bad btw Ares isn't IMC Reminant fleet is IMC anyways the conflict is much more grey in the first game and there more world building. Like the milita actually being terroists using human sheilds in fracture, plainclothes insurgents, bombings, and killing civillians. Blisk was responible for most of the bad stuff the IMC do in the campaing IE, G21 colony massacre, killing civillans, shooting down civillan ships. Also most of the lore is given by grunts talking to each other, depending on the mission and environment the dialouge will change. not to mention that titans can run altho in 2 the running speed is turned down to a slighty faster walk. specters and grunts will shoot rockets at your titan and specters can even rodeo your titan. and a better visual artstyle. A lot of stuff changed in 2, the rodeo system changed and the new ideas like mutiple player roedo was scrapped. they made the specter and grunt ai dumber and the enemy titan ai is the same as the assault chip in multiplayer. even with the changes 2 is still a 10/10 game
Dude, read the comments below, replay the game (making use of the actual advice and not the hate), delete this video, and try again. Your other videos are really solid. However, this is a different type of game from what you have played. Movement shooters are not COD or Half Life.
A lot of his criticisms seem to be surface level or subject to opinion. For example, I completely agree with the stupid dialog choices as they seem to be unnecessary and you could have the same witty banter without the options, but that is only an opinion. But his criticism of titan combat is completely surface level because he didn't bother to explore methods of combat. Specifically how to make titan combat more fast paced (which there are plenty). The entire review was like this but this goes to show how movement shooters are not for everybody and probably only a niche audience (hence why we don't see them as often)
In current state of online part of Titanfall 2 single player campaign really should be discussed. People love this franchise for its movement and gunplay more than anything and it seems like both of these features were underused. Looks like Respawn still expected the game to be primarily multy player experience, but they don't care enough to maintain it for whatever reason. I guess Titanfall could be even better
ok so after watchign this video i can esealy disprove your points and explain where you are just straght up wrong but its late and i have to go to work tomorrow so i wont waste anymore time then i already did watching this video in the first place
Hey, about these titans, you are using them wrong. They are NOT tanks. You have to play tactically. You are not supposed to be invincible. Use the dashes to hop from cover to cover. USE YOUR UTILITIES. For the ammo issue, you are using your gun too much. Use punches, grenades, group enemies up to take them out. Or, just pass by them and have them look dumbfounded as you pass over their heads. Also, look around more, there are more guns lying around for you to pick up across levels.
Ive played this game since 2016 and i think your biggest issue is your playing the game like COD when the whole point of titanfall is to be as far from the stereotypical and boreing "hide behind a corner and get some headshots" shooter most games are. Let me try and break it down Titanfall's story mode isnt supposed to be a massive 20 hour story experience like the last of us its supposed to be a fun past time to get new players *like yourself* prepared for the multiplayer. The same multi-player that if you tried out shows you that you can use your favorite weapon with unlimited ammo, and you can make that slow bulky titan that you hate so much faster and deadly by giving yourself a ronin or more dashes. Thats why the game treats you as a baby with the holograms and dumb enemies and gives you so many *"boss fights"* that if you havent noticed all have a different titan. With each one of the titans being one you will fight against in the multi-player. Those fights aren't supposed to be extremely challenging. *(unless you play max difficulty which i recommended)* bur their to show a new player how to handle the same enemies that they'll find in the multi-player. This teaching method also explains why the game forces you to chose a new weapon every once and a while so when you find one you like you can use and customize it with the multi-player If you want a challenge play the game like it isnt COD, put it on max difficulty so the enimies can track and kill you like their a normal player. use multiple weapons so you can see whats best for you. Use the platform and your speed to your advantage because your a pilot a demon compared to most. Fight a titan as a pilot because again if you played the multi-player you will find find out multiple weakness like they can't see you while your invisible so use it to your advantage to find cover fast. Or you can jump on a titan's back to steal health for your own titan when needed. To put it simply give the game a chance by using EVERYTHING to your disposal instead of trying to force it to be a game it isn't. I recommend watching someone like marco who had the same problems as you until a friend told him not to play like COD
I played through and thought it was alright, but it felt like the titan was a clunky mess that i was forced to try to love when all it equated to was "more health" "biggur gun"
Fascinating to see a campaign only perspective. I will say that the game is very much a multiplayer before a campaign design (A lot of multiplayer games mimicked it).
7:44 all right so out of all the things you could’ve said I feel like the most controversial was talking about how BT his voice lines are redundant because there’s no second alternative ending if you choose one or the other so I am very close to just not watching the rest of this and I hope I don’t make a third comment because this is a little bit extreme. you claim Titan combat is slow and not fun and yet don’t know how to sprint as you pilot Titans, even though you probably had adjusted your settings at least once and yet the first thing you see is auto sprint settings and the option for pilots only auto sprint, Titans only auto sprint, and New auto sprint whatsoever
If you would be willing to post a video of you in a titan fight, maybe I can see exactly what you are doing that is making titan gameplay so unenjoyable for you. I suffered issues with not using my movement, utilities, and trying to tank damage before I changed my playstyle, and it became far more fun. There is a reason that the first thing to come online in the titan tutorial (When you enter BT for the first time) is the defensive ability (vortex shield), then the offensive ability (shoulder mounted rocket pod), and then, and ONLY then, the main gun. Also, when your opponent has equally proportioned weapons, its as if neither of you have armor. Like I said in my previous comment, do not treat a titan like a tank vs. infantry with only a rifle. Treat it like tank on tank battle. Even grunts can carry anti-titan missile launchers, and tanks will move to avoid missiles. Reapers are designed to harass titans, and can take you down if you don't take them seriously. Even modern tanks try to avoid incoming fire of any kind, then try to take it down with defensive systems, and the armor is only there as a last resort, and mostly to help crew survive. I hope to see gameplay footage (maybe of the first titan fight, the one at the end of the BT mission) so that I can help you with your titan problem.
guys can I get some help, I've been wanting to play the single player story but the game is fucked and doesn't save any of my progress does someone have a fix?
3:54 so you’re not sprinting you can still sprint in your titan. I personally have auto sprint for Titans. Only BT can easily sprint around the map as well as the other Titans in the game. You only have two dashes because it’s an atlas Titan and a strider Titan with three dashes… an ogre titan will only have one dash Saying the Titan combat is slow because you’re not sprinting as you play as a Titan is A little out there I understand you have an opinion and that is entirely valid however you made a small mistake in your judgment. Mainly because you didn’t experiment to see if Titans can actually sprint which the game never really tells you you can sprint in your titan, that being said, you are entitled to your own opinion, and I respect it even if I disagree with it
3:12 Yes, players are actually that stupid because some people don’t play video games all that much. Like my mother for example can’t traverse in fps shooter without running into a wall.
plus, in the next part of the video, while he is using Titan, he does not use his dash. literally don't use titan's mechanics. "gamer are really this stupid"
I disagree with essentially all of your statements except the one about the narrative (I personally can't even remember what the entire campaign is about even tho I've played it multiple times in the past). Now, the different guns most likely exist to give some variety, a big shocker. If you were to play through the entire campaign with 1 gun and 1 gun only it would get really repetitive. The titans are slow. Like yeah, no shit, otherwise they would be broken asf in multiplayer. The titans are made to be like walking behemoths that are slow (you still have sprint and dash btw), they are sorta like a substitute for a tank in other games except you actually have movement options except for holding W. And if the titans were faster it would drastically change the multiplayer for obvious reasons. And the campaign is short because its a way into multiplayer, BT is an actual class in multiplayer that being monarch, the same titan mechanics are used in multiplayer (duh) and even the abilities are the same. And just an additional note, in multiplayer there are literally titans that are made for movement, its just that in campaign u cant change the titans ability loadout.
Please lower you sens you can't even make slow flick on standing targets About the price, yes 30$ for a 6h campaign is not worth it but you can spend hundreds or hours in a multiplayer free of any FOMO or attention grab mechanics. And if mp is not your thing, the campaign feature an insane speedrun potential and the community that come with it. I like seing someone criticizing Tf2 because the campaign is indeed just a bit overrated and the MP is as much a masterpiece as it is painful but yeah... the other comments are right, you should play in a higher difficulty, use all your titan abilities, play all weapons in hipfire when possible with as much movement as you're able to.
I get it. Spending $30 for a 6 hour campaign is horrible, but since it's less then half of the game I think it'll be more like paying $15 for a 6 hour campaign which is alot better
While i dont have the same qualms with your review as others do, it seems that with your gameplay you are more of a casual player. However, for more than a decade, games like call of duty mw1 began to slowly add movement mechanics that can provide an advantage, such as drop shooting, clamber, and diving. It is my opinion that titanfall is the natural pinnacle of movement mechanics. Nowadays, you see tryhards in call of duty and apex slding around, wall jumping, and strafing, while neglecting a game that provides them exponentially more freedom in movement. It doesnt seem like youre one of those people that try to "max out" movement for these rigid and restrictive shooters, so it would make sense that youre not a big fan of a game that finally lets players of the leash.
This guy's take is so bad! You don't engage in the movement mechanics of this game... the LITERAL SKILL GAP! HE DOESN'T EVEN RUN IN THE TITAN FFS! Talks about realism in a game that takes place in the future, if you want realism, go play insurgency: sandstorm, not Titanfall! This review goes to show you how BAD "gaming journalists" are at gaming. Their reviews are completely useless when they don't know how to properly play the game!
i feel like i have to say this, you may have some good points, but you also have som bad points, like for example the one i realy disagree with, the gameplay front in the end. i realy dont see anny other shooters having grapling hooks, sliding, wall running or mutch else like titanfall does, the closest one would either be apex (witch is in the same universe and has SOME of the same mechanics) and sometimes fortnite. i feel like you went in expecting a singleplayer experience like half-life or cod but got something else, it's not something for everyone, but you realy should have given it a fair shot. This realy is nothing like half life. sorry if i seem mad, have a god day:)
You could play the game in a better way, the movement is everything. The campaign does a very bad job at using the movement tho, master difficulty transforms the game into COD/HALO. Also you attacked people that like to focus on one game man ;-; This game has more 'experiences' if you learn to play it. My fun with this game is learning movement tech and using it in multiplayer or trying to speedrun singleplayer. If you want to learn this things you should watch the youtuber bryonato "ultimate movement guide", don't play the campaign in higher difficulties, and raise that FOV a lot ):D The pilot gameplay feels fast and extreme to a good player, and the titan sections lets you take a breath. And you can "quickswap" titan loadouts in singleplayer by pressing F1 and changing loadouts quickly xd
wow your video really opened my eyes, this game really doesn't deserve the hype or praise. lmao just kidding though I will bestow on you 1 engagement and try to understand your criticisms yes your typical gamers are this stupid, I've watched maybe different 20 playthroughs and a lot of them couldn't figure out how to jump the gap and some don't even notice the guidance hologram, remember this is the first mission after the tutorial and most fps at the time don't feature advanced movement mechanics. It is the game designer's job to teach players how to play their game no matter the player's skill level, bonus points for making it seamless. Titan health actually functions like pilot health, the regenerating part is the shield. Actually, this is what some early Halo games did. Regenerating damage taken can be thought of as a forgiveness system. As pilot they expect you to take some damage, they forgive this damage as a way to encourage you to play less conservatively otherwise you would be playing it like a tactical cover shooter. They even give you a disengage in the form of cloak. Titan combat is designed to be more on the tactical side, less hitscan, more projectiles and telegraphed attacks. It's slower because it's a game of resource management. A morsel of natural regeneration is to protect you from small arms fire or death by a thousand cuts. BT sprints at 37km/h which is actually faster than a pilot's wall run at 30km/h, so it must be a matter of perspective. What I'm getting from you is that you're not too fond of the tactical combat in the game seeing as you do not care for cover, so why do you have a preference for health pickups? I think the system serves its purpose so I don't quite understand what the problem is, maybe you could elaborate. I don't mind the idea of a shared ammo pool but this and a weapon wheel tend to push the feel of pilot combat towards the tactical side. I think this was a conscious decision because the campaign was made to be a tutorial for the multiplayer and the developers want to get the players acquainted with every type of weapon. narrative is one of those subjective things where a lot of people want something specific out of it, few people can appreciate stories for what it is when it's outside their preference. I'm unlikely to convince you of my opinion but I will say that what they try to do they do well. Its limited runtime restricts its narrative scope, so it chooses to focus on one thing that matters most: your connection with BT. In order to ensure the impact of the ending all other characters can't be too important or too personal with the player, yes making someone else more will make BT less. The worldbuilding is there but relegated to the background and the environment. This isn't a game that doesn't tell you, it simply doesn't have the time to tell you, and that's because it's gameplay first. If you take some time to look around closely you will learn a lot more. Also this is the second game, people should expect to be missing some information if they've never played the first. Why does the dialogue choice exist? to exchange pleasantries, to build your connection with your titan, to provide worldbuilding. It's immersion, it feels more like you the player is participating in the conversation instead of the guy you're playing as, helps that you can stay silent if you wish. you don't have to choose both dialogues to do anything at any point, in your onscreen example you can climb on his hand without saying anything. If the dialogue choices have no effect then why did you feel a sense of urgency? Missing a choice should be no big deal. Should the options stay on screen and cause the next one to be missed or mistimed? Some even say this makes a good reason to replay the game. Don't have much to say about the collectibles, just that it has them because CoD has them, and that game is more realistic.
also wanted to share some loose thoughts consider it bonus engagement I’m one of those who found pilot combat to be way more enjoyable and I found the campaign lacking in pilot vs titan combat with you as pilot. The downtime when nothing is going on is called pacing. There is something going on though, usually in the environment but sometimes it’s meant to be buildup. The overarching narrative is actually more like space american revolution I have to wonder why you chose to use the stairs when you could have just jumped up the platform. You seem to be separating the shooter part and the platformer part of the game when the game wants you to shoot while flying around. It’s not CoD, hipfire accuracy is very high for this reason. I don’t see cloak being used once, did you forget it exists? This is why your direct approach didn’t work. Between this and dishonored 2 I think titanfall wins best time travel level, I kind of hated dishonored’s execution, didn’t mix well with the gameplay like titanfall did.
Your whole review is just sad. The game is not meant to be realistic, its based on the future. I wonder why titans are slow? there like these massive machines of course they're not gonna be lightning mcqueen The holograms, every game has directions to teach players what to do. its there for the helpfulness but its also apart of the game. the holograms are about other pilots, possibly Tai (his mentor) could be his hologram. its the same as games saying w to move forward s to go backwards blah blah. it seems stupid but not everyone has played games before, its there to help and is a key feature of every video game in existent. The AI is easy because your on easy mode. I can not bother to type more but basically, your review is horrible. Maybe think about the game without you start yapping mate.
9:30 that's not what a mcguffin is though. Also, while I don't think your review is a good one , you disliked the game and there isn't really anything the tf2 community can do about it, except overreacting ig. I think a lot of people have reccomended you try the multiplayer, but I don't think you'd like that either so maybe just play something else and try not to mind the comments too much
Honestly, I really wasn't expecting for the video to gain any traction whatsoever. I'm glad it performs so well in terms of engagement. Heck, I might want to just continue making contrarian videos for the hell of it /s
For a pretty good reason, it makes me and many others probably pretty sad to see such a great game being criticized unfairly (many if not all of these critiques could be argued against, and his sole focus on the campaign is really unfair)
It's funny how call of duty copied titainfall systems after it came out. Also, yes, titanfall has cod inspirations; it's almost like respawn devs came from Infinity Ward when they left and made their own company.
7:44 all right so out of all the things you could’ve said I feel like the most controversial was talking about how BT his voice lines are redundant because there’s no second alternative ending if you choose one or the other so I am very close to just not watching the rest of this and I hope I don’t make a third comment because this is a little bit extreme. you claim Titan combat is slow and not fun and yet don’t know how to sprint as you pilot Titans, even though you probably had adjusted your settings at least once and yet the first thing you see is auto sprint settings and the option for pilots only auto sprint, Titans only auto sprint, and New auto sprint whatsoever
1:23 Gee I wonder why the game called TITANFALL 2, focuses a lot on the TITAN COMBAT
To be fair the pilot helmets were a reward for exploration, and for a bonus you get a trophy if you collect all of them, I know this because I platinumed the game on PS5.
The game is also a sci-fi shooter, not meant to be the most realistic game.
The titan gameplay isn't that slow, for the most part, you just forgot that titans could sprint & dashes could be used at any point in the game 💀💀
when he said something about realism, I was like "Realism is a futuristic game"... yeah okay reviewer!
@@MR_ii_5150 A game where you can double jump, wall run, use cloaking abilities & call down a giant ass mech is totally realistic, like fr he's playing it like it's cod 😭😭
What's so bad about changing your guns mid game? You suggest playing with your favorite weapon only (or at least for majority of a campain) but isn't it detrimental to having fun? Won't you just get bored sooner because each encounter will require you the same tactic the weapon allows? That way, when you run out of ammo for your gun and have to pick up another, the game challenges you to change something in your playstyle, no?
This might actually be worse than an IGN review.
Fax
this game really makes you FEEL like a titan
everyone is entitled to an opinion but your opinion is still wrong.
Agreed, the titans were the best part
Agree with the man above
I disagree, if you enjoy pilots like me, titans are just annoying. I would play pilots v pilots but I rarely get matches
@@G5_VXCw-xN- I played pilot vs pilot and livefire. got games all the time. Titans were definitely the best part of this game...

FOREAL
the right to free speech is bollocks
I can’t take the review seriously when you refuse to engage with 80% of the games mechanics and game modes and then criticize the game for a lack of depth and content.
The single player campaign has always been more of a glorified tutorial for the multiplayer and at no point did it try to hide this. Who the hell complains about lore in a multiplayer fps game. Do you buy COD, battlefield, or Rainbow 6 for the lore? You are comparing titanfalls campaign which has always been an addition to something with the last of us which is a completely single player story game.
You then go on about adding nonsensical mechanics like an inventory system which just no. It’s not a sandbox survival game it’s a fast paced movement fps. Which shows you clearly don’t understand anything of what the game is.
What makes tf2 good is its multiplayer and gameplay which you refuse to engage with. The clips you’ve shown act like you play with one arm. You either stand still and aim or you walk around. Which is criminal when the game you are playing is a MOVEMENT shooter. At no point should to be just standing still taking pot shots to conserve ammo. The whole point is to jump in spray him down pick up his gun and continue.
The whole titan argument is just you not knowing how to play at all. You never dashed used a smoke cloud successfully reflected incoming fire or whatever when in a titan. You never tried to rodeo another titan or meleed it to finish it off.
I don’t understand at all why you complain about collectibles when the whole point is to just be additional content to people who like these sort of things. The reward is an achievement and being able to platinum the game on console.
why is bro speaking like this is a powerpoint presentation
This is the worst take of titanfall I’ve ever had the displeasure of hearing
after 2 min 34 i had to stop.
you are mistaken.
This is the single worst review I have ever seen in my life
"Titan combat is very slow"
Proceeds to walk out in the open and not use any dashes to evade.
"Why cant I use every weapon all at once"
God forbid you have to actually use a different weapon rather than the best one for a bit.
"The collectables serve no purpose at all"
Yes, that is why they are called collectables, your goal is to collect them if you want. You don't have to.
"This is supposed to be a realistic shooter, why am I collecting stuff?"
You are literally a super soldier with a mech, who learns about a superweapon by time travelling through a reasearch facility. I have absolutely no idea where you got the idea this was supposed to be a realistic shooter. What are you going to complain about next? The fact you can pause the game?
Most egregious of all, this video is called "Titanfall 2's titans are the weakest part of the game" and you spend about 30 seconds talking about the titans and your only criticism is that it's too slow. Titan combat can be as slow or as fast as you want it to be, something like legion is incredibly slow but tanky with solid dps, while something like ronin is a super fast melee hit and run option with a phase ability. Honestly it just sounds like you didnt experiment with the game at all.
My favorite part was when he asked if players were too dumb to figure out platforming because of the ghosts, then it cuts to him just standing there, taking damage when he has a full dash charge, lmao. Also, the full auto hipfire drove me insane
fr. he clearly has no experience whatsoever and is shitting on things that he doesnt understand.
@@Grumpy1174this pissed me off too
I like every point in this, however…
As a legion main, the combat is still insanely fast when your build is optimized/ when you want it to be 😂
There’s genuinely a way to play for everyone, and my guy was just walking around the map completely disregarding that it’s a MOVEMENT shooter. Instead opting to play it like cod. On the opposite side of that spectrum, (sorta) the Titan combat is *meant* to be slow. It’s the duality of the whole game. But as I said above, the titans have a way to play for everyone.
@@FluidlyDesignedGames
I'm glad I'm not the only one, I refuse to believe this guy has as much experience with similar shooters as he claims when he's trying to play a movement shooter like it's a weird mix of valorant and COD.
I don't think this makes sense because the titan fighting can be fast, which is why there are different titans with certain speeds and health, also the weapon part doesn't make sense because if I'm a pilot that's stranded with only me and my titan where am I getting my guns, off of the walls/armory's or off of body's, this isn't implemented in the multiplayer because it has infinite ammo (because we aren't stranded), but if I'm in a giant robot OFC this isn't gonna be speed like on foot, its meant to be complicated, which is why if you cant do it THERES THE AUTO TITAN PLUS THE ASSAULT CHIP (in multiplayer), the campaign is a good start because you get to try out all the weapons, all the titans, meet some of the factions, fight other really strong titans and try out every titan (besides brute, brute isn't in multiplayer), while the titan side is kinda weak, its not so weak to the point it ruins the game, in fact it carries the game so much it makes it more fun. your "facts" more or less are just opinions.
Bro has never felt the euphoria of a scorch killstreak
@@VoxAstra-qk4jz scorch is so high risk high reward, but my favorite titan
Bro really wants Titanfall to be cod when cod is one of the LEAST ENTERTAINING GAMES TO PLAY RN
Tell me you're bad at Titanfall without telling me you're bad at Titanfall 🤣🤣🤣
Facts 🤣
For all of your difficulty complaints, just play insane. As for “titan gameplay being slow”, I feel as though this REALLY gets fixed on higher difficulties or multiplayer, where the slow movement lends itself well to the defensive play style the skewed health and damage numbers making you pick your battles. Pilot gameplay is all about movement skill and gun play, while titan gameplay is focused on resource management first and foremost. They are meant to feel very different for a reason.
The mech gameplay doesn't need to be fixed. Look how he's playing. He doesn't dash or sprint in the mech a single time, and he's pretty obviously not playing on a high difficulty (despite complaining about it) because the grunts are literally standing there, tickling him while he struggles to full auto hipfire an SMG at mid range.
blasphemy
Bro you had me at it being some kind of a review for titanfall, you lost me when you started saying that you didn't even care about the multiplayer. Why am I listening to your review again?
This might be the worst take on Titanfall 2 I’ve ever seen.
I thought these kind of takes wernt even possible in this day and age, Your take is So Vile Hitler would cry if he heard it.
This review feels like you went into a BBQ party as a vegetarian.
You're just playing the wrong game for your tastes, man.
If I compered your gameplay and review to IGN it would be an insult to the IGN.
i feel like avocado plays this game just the way he plays halflife 2. and therefore i dont think this would be a fair review. in most of the clips he shows where combat is in the background he just walks around like an old souce game. Titanfall 2 is a fastpaste movement shooter, one look around the environments shows that the "traversal movement" is passivley enforced to be used in combat.
now it is true that the titan parts of the game are a bit more slow, it still doesnt mean you should tank all hits and just find healing, try dashing, dodging and using your shield. jump into any multiplayer match and you'll see thats what all the players that enjoys the game are doing. And Avocado, please try the game in a more difficult gamemode, this forces you to move like intended. sorry for bad english🛸🛸
so you want to be able to use your favourite weapon the whole time cos you're too lazy to learn a new one?
you're not gonna have fun with just one weapon
learn to use the dash, the titans may be technically slow but at higher difficulties the fight is still fast
3:50 PRESS SPACE YOU HAVE 2!!!! DASHES!!! YES APPARENTLY THERE WASN'T ENOUGH HOLOGRAPHIC PILOTS TO TEACH YOU THAT
Edit 1
Fucking lengthy? YOU DIDN'T USE IT AT ALL. And i just googled it 6 seconds! Is this soooo long for you? Well i guess you wouldn't know... BECAUSE YOU NEVER USE THEM!!!!
4:47 That's called variety
5:40 YOU HAVE 2!!! PRIMARY WEAPON SLOTS HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED YOU FALLOUT HORDER????
6:30 Yea kinda agree but its a 10 year old shooter not an open world RPG, they killed ya mentor what more do you need to kill them all back in a shooter game?
7:03 well if you didn't play on easy or medium maybe a whole game would be more interesting and the "Stupid" ai would suddenly be very smart for pre fireing the corners were you once were. Though yea even on master game not that hard
7:26 ITs CALLED VARIETY!!!!!!!! Why in God of war you have to repeatedly press O to open doors or rip someone's head off? Its engaging!!!!
8:02 Wha what? Why they spend resources on a system which is literally just two lines of code and interface? Bro it doesn't take a milion dollars to make a timed dialogue choice system its not that hard what are you even talking about????
8:45 Just... Don't? Its not like they are in your face its a fun little reward for the exploration, yea it doesn't give you much but its fun. And once again you don't have to gather them you said it yourself they don't give anything (only satisfaction of exploration and an achievement which is beside the point.)
9:05 Did you? What? Bro... Have you seen much titans irl? No? Well i guess that's because Titanfall is a sci-fi setting, not a realistic one.
9:55 YEA LET US JUST REMOVE THE TITAN FROM THE TITANFALL LEAVE JUST THE FALL!
10:24 6 hour campaign in a primary multiplayer shooter is more that enough
10:40 Did.... Did you just say... That titanfall doesn't standout on a gameplay front? Are... What?

I swear I’ve never been this flabbergasted on a video before and I hope I’m not gonna be this flabbergasted again
I feel like you are both A) muddying the line between subjective and Objective, and B) not understanding things and blaming the game for it. On top of every so often just getting stuff downright wrong.
The art of saying sh!t. You never played the multiplayer for sure.
horrible ragebait
Bro says he doesn’t like Mechs then says Titanfall is bad because it has mechs….then complains about tutorial aspects showing the player how to wall run?… how miserable are you for complaining so much about how the game teaches you how to play??
Love how everyone in the comments is on the same page
Are you allergic to the space bar?
I would respect your opinion, however your opinion is just plain stupid. You have good potential to be an actual game reviewing youtuber (with Curious Archive vibes) which is nice. But sadly your opinion is very wrong. Titanfall 2 has Titans because that is their unique mechanic. This is not COD, you play the game by moving and adapting to all the crazy mechanics.
Combat in the Campaign is it's own thing and combat in Multiplayer is it's own thing as well. Same goes to Titan and Pilot combat.
If you would be willing to post a video of you in a titan fight, maybe I can see exactly what you are doing that is making titan gameplay so unenjoyable for you. I suffered issues with not using my movement, utilities, and trying to tank damage before I changed my playstyle, and it became far more fun. There is a reason that when you enter BT, the first thing to come online in the titan tutorial section is the defensive ability (vortex shield), then the offensive ability (shoulder rocket pod), and then, and only then the main gun. Titans may be big and beefy, but when you are fighting another titan, they have similarly proportioned weapons, and thus both of you are unarmored to each other.
3:29 I understand where his opinion is coming from, just look at his aim
i feel like half the downsides with the game you listed have a direct in-game solution, and you either didnt know it existed or forgot about it (like the dashing on titans you mentioned, which you hadnt used ever in the clip at the time). Also idk what you got against the random additional things in the game like collectables or dialogue options that took a day to add in since this isnt a singleplayer focused-game. Also where so many games are unnecessarily long for no reason why would you want more length as without a lot more resources it would just be superficial padding, as too many games are long for the sake of being long by stretching 6 hours of gameplay into 60 hours. long campaign w/ low quality will always lose out to a higher quality, short campaign. If its good it should leave you wanting more, wanting a longer game. overall a good vid tho always like to see more game analysis on titanfall, cuz dont get me wrong it has a lot of issues especially in the multiplayer, just not sure all the ones mentioned here apply
I agree with this man
The game is meant to be fast and deadly
Fyi you can air strafe in a titan
@@AlexDiaz-kw8hh it is
What difficulty did you play on. Because saying that the boss fights were easy is flat out wrong. They are simplistic I will grant you that, but Ash (on Master difficulty) was almost as big a spike in difficulty as the Gargoyles in DS1; and this was on my second or third play through. And I didn’t know you could even skip the cutscenes because that’s the only explanation for not finding the story good I can think of. I’m almost inclined to think this video was made for engagement farming due to the sheer volume of takes verging on the asinine.
she is actually very easy if you use the brute loadout, but he would never actually learn/think to use the tools given to him it seems
@@lilgoblin3687 I think that’s what I used to win with in the end but nevertheless she was a chunky speed bump.
Throw your recording equipment away and never make another vid again
9:30 Well at least you are human, if you didn't like that it would be strange.
Edit: I wrote this before I watched the video and seeing that this is only about the single player.
I think the contrast between titan gameplay and pilot ganeplay is great. The titans generaly seen as unfun, tone, and northstar, have very passive playstyles.
All the others have their own unique and fun playstyle. Legion holds down m1 untill everything is dead. Ronin plays like an Overwatch dive character, disrupting enemy lines. Scorch and monarch play it safe untill they get are given an inch of opportunity, and with it they can take a mile. Ion's versitily makes its gameplay a test of the user's adaptability and creativity.
No, the contrast between titans and pilots isn't great when you can just sit at the back od the map and spam tracker rockets. So don't play like that.
i will advocate for northstar, since i have used her very aggressively and to great success in the past.
@@lilgoblin3687 My experience with Northstar is playing titan brawl, turning a corner, and being blasted with three fully charged railgun rounds.
The thing about titan combat is that its a titan,it moves good with the dashes and the magority of the skill is in managing loadouts and sinergising the weapons,and the health sistem with the pilot is meant for sliding in and out of combat,before you talk shit about titanfall two,how about you play the game as it was meant to,cuz if the footage is yours then you are quite trash,the movement is vital and you play like if it were cod,did you not notice how you had near laser acuracy from the hip?that is for moving,sliding,running and everything
Play the game before you review
There is much more to the lore than milita good IMC bad btw Ares isn't IMC Reminant fleet is IMC anyways the conflict is much more grey in the first game and there more world building. Like the milita actually being terroists using human sheilds in fracture, plainclothes insurgents, bombings, and killing civillians. Blisk was responible for most of the bad stuff the IMC do in the campaing IE, G21 colony massacre, killing civillans, shooting down civillan ships. Also most of the lore is given by grunts talking to each other, depending on the mission and environment the dialouge will change. not to mention that titans can run altho in 2 the running speed is turned down to a slighty faster walk. specters and grunts will shoot rockets at your titan and specters can even rodeo your titan. and a better visual artstyle.
A lot of stuff changed in 2, the rodeo system changed and the new ideas like mutiple player roedo was scrapped. they made the specter and grunt ai dumber and the enemy titan ai is the same as the assault chip in multiplayer. even with the changes 2 is still a 10/10 game
Dude, read the comments below, replay the game (making use of the actual advice and not the hate), delete this video, and try again. Your other videos are really solid. However, this is a different type of game from what you have played. Movement shooters are not COD or Half Life.
A lot of his criticisms seem to be surface level or subject to opinion. For example, I completely agree with the stupid dialog choices as they seem to be unnecessary and you could have the same witty banter without the options, but that is only an opinion. But his criticism of titan combat is completely surface level because he didn't bother to explore methods of combat. Specifically how to make titan combat more fast paced (which there are plenty).
The entire review was like this but this goes to show how movement shooters are not for everybody and probably only a niche audience (hence why we don't see them as often)
In current state of online part of Titanfall 2 single player campaign really should be discussed. People love this franchise for its movement and gunplay more than anything and it seems like both of these features were underused. Looks like Respawn still expected the game to be primarily multy player experience, but they don't care enough to maintain it for whatever reason.
I guess Titanfall could be even better
ok so after watchign this video i can esealy disprove your points and explain where you are just straght up wrong but its late and i have to go to work tomorrow so i wont waste anymore time then i already did watching this video in the first place
dawg you can't even play the damn game right. this is like when that "game journalist" tried playing cuphead to review it and failed miserably lmao
dude isn't using 90% of game mechanics
-the game is bad
Hey, about these titans, you are using them wrong. They are NOT tanks. You have to play tactically. You are not supposed to be invincible. Use the dashes to hop from cover to cover. USE YOUR UTILITIES. For the ammo issue, you are using your gun too much. Use punches, grenades, group enemies up to take them out. Or, just pass by them and have them look dumbfounded as you pass over their heads. Also, look around more, there are more guns lying around for you to pick up across levels.
Ive played this game since 2016 and i think your biggest issue is your playing the game like COD when the whole point of titanfall is to be as far from the stereotypical and boreing "hide behind a corner and get some headshots" shooter most games are. Let me try and break it down
Titanfall's story mode isnt supposed to be a massive 20 hour story experience like the last of us its supposed to be a fun past time to get new players *like yourself* prepared for the multiplayer. The same multi-player that if you tried out shows you that you can use your favorite weapon with unlimited ammo, and you can make that slow bulky titan that you hate so much faster and deadly by giving yourself a ronin or more dashes. Thats why the game treats you as a baby with the holograms and dumb enemies and gives you so many *"boss fights"* that if you havent noticed all have a different titan. With each one of the titans being one you will fight against in the multi-player. Those fights aren't supposed to be extremely challenging. *(unless you play max difficulty which i recommended)* bur their to show a new player how to handle the same enemies that they'll find in the multi-player.
This teaching method also explains why the game forces you to chose a new weapon every once and a while so when you find one you like you can use and customize it with the multi-player
If you want a challenge play the game like it isnt COD, put it on max difficulty so the enimies can track and kill you like their a normal player. use multiple weapons so you can see whats best for you. Use the platform and your speed to your advantage because your a pilot a demon compared to most. Fight a titan as a pilot because again if you played the multi-player you will find find out multiple weakness like they can't see you while your invisible so use it to your advantage to find cover fast. Or you can jump on a titan's back to steal health for your own titan when needed.
To put it simply give the game a chance by using EVERYTHING to your disposal instead of trying to force it to be a game it isn't. I recommend watching someone like marco who had the same problems as you until a friend told him not to play like COD
when he said "you can sit in the back behind cover" like sure you CAN but obviously the entire game is built around you not playing like that.
I played through and thought it was alright, but it felt like the titan was a clunky mess that i was forced to try to love when all it equated to was "more health" "biggur gun"
Fascinating to see a campaign only perspective.
I will say that the game is very much a multiplayer before a campaign design (A lot of multiplayer games mimicked it).
Fellow pilots, let's just stop watching this video so this individual doesn't spread his blasphemy 🔥
lowkey i used to only play pilots vs pilots
7:44 all right so out of all the things you could’ve said I feel like the most controversial was talking about how BT his voice lines are redundant because there’s no second alternative ending if you choose one or the other so I am very close to just not watching the rest of this and I hope I don’t make a third comment because this is a little bit extreme. you claim Titan combat is slow and not fun and yet don’t know how to sprint as you pilot Titans, even though you probably had adjusted your settings at least once and yet the first thing you see is auto sprint settings and the option for pilots only auto sprint, Titans only auto sprint, and New auto sprint whatsoever

I suffered issues with not using my movement, utilities, and trying to tank damage before I changed my playstyle, and it became far more fun. There is a reason that the first thing to come online in the titan tutorial (When you enter BT for the first time) is the defensive ability (vortex shield), then the offensive ability (shoulder mounted rocket pod), and then, and ONLY then, the main gun. Also, when your opponent has equally proportioned weapons, its as if neither of you have armor. Like I said in my previous comment, do not treat a titan like a tank vs. infantry with only a rifle. Treat it like tank on tank battle. Even grunts can carry anti-titan missile launchers, and tanks will move to avoid missiles. Reapers are designed to harass titans, and can take you down if you don't take them seriously. Even modern tanks try to avoid incoming fire of any kind, then try to take it down with defensive systems, and the armor is only there as a last resort, and mostly to help crew survive. I hope to see gameplay footage (maybe of the first titan fight, the one at the end of the BT mission) so that I can help you with your titan problem.
Your sensitivity is too high
guys can I get some help, I've been wanting to play the single player story but the game is fucked and doesn't save any of my progress does someone have a fix?
3:54 so you’re not sprinting you can still sprint in your titan. I personally have auto sprint for Titans. Only BT can easily sprint around the map as well as the other Titans in the game. You only have two dashes because it’s an atlas Titan and a strider Titan with three dashes… an ogre titan will only have one dash
Saying the Titan combat is slow because you’re not sprinting as you play as a Titan is A little out there I understand you have an opinion and that is entirely valid however you made a small mistake in your judgment. Mainly because you didn’t experiment to see if Titans can actually sprint which the game never really tells you you can sprint in your titan, that being said, you are entitled to your own opinion, and I respect it even if I disagree with it
3:12 Yes, players are actually that stupid because some people don’t play video games all that much. Like my mother for example can’t traverse in fps shooter without running into a wall.
plus, in the next part of the video, while he is using Titan, he does not use his dash. literally don't use titan's mechanics. "gamer are really this stupid"
Who is this clown? Stick with MineCraft yeah? Leave the goodstuff to us who appreciate it. THIS IS STILL A MASTER PEICE
I disagree with essentially all of your statements except the one about the narrative (I personally can't even remember what the entire campaign is about even tho I've played it multiple times in the past).
Now, the different guns most likely exist to give some variety, a big shocker. If you were to play through the entire campaign with 1 gun and 1 gun only it would get really repetitive.
The titans are slow. Like yeah, no shit, otherwise they would be broken asf in multiplayer. The titans are made to be like walking behemoths that are slow (you still have sprint and dash btw), they are sorta like a substitute for a tank in other games except you actually have movement options except for holding W. And if the titans were faster it would drastically change the multiplayer for obvious reasons.
And the campaign is short because its a way into multiplayer, BT is an actual class in multiplayer that being monarch, the same titan mechanics are used in multiplayer (duh) and even the abilities are the same.
And just an additional note, in multiplayer there are literally titans that are made for movement, its just that in campaign u cant change the titans ability loadout.
Please lower you sens you can't even make slow flick on standing targets
About the price, yes 30$ for a 6h campaign is not worth it but you can spend hundreds or hours in a multiplayer free of any FOMO or attention grab mechanics. And if mp is not your thing, the campaign feature an insane speedrun potential and the community that come with it.
I like seing someone criticizing Tf2 because the campaign is indeed just a bit overrated and the MP is as much a masterpiece as it is painful but yeah... the other comments are right, you should play in a higher difficulty, use all your titan abilities, play all weapons in hipfire when possible with as much movement as you're able to.
I get it. Spending $30 for a 6 hour campaign is horrible, but since it's less then half of the game I think it'll be more like paying $15 for a 6 hour campaign which is alot better
@@hellotheregeneralkonobi4010 actually the game is one of those under 5$ every Steam/EA sales

While i dont have the same qualms with your review as others do, it seems that with your gameplay you are more of a casual player. However, for more than a decade, games like call of duty mw1 began to slowly add movement mechanics that can provide an advantage, such as drop shooting, clamber, and diving. It is my opinion that titanfall is the natural pinnacle of movement mechanics. Nowadays, you see tryhards in call of duty and apex slding around, wall jumping, and strafing, while neglecting a game that provides them exponentially more freedom in movement. It doesnt seem like youre one of those people that try to "max out" movement for these rigid and restrictive shooters, so it would make sense that youre not a big fan of a game that finally lets players of the leash.
This guy's take is so bad! You don't engage in the movement mechanics of this game... the LITERAL SKILL GAP! HE DOESN'T EVEN RUN IN THE TITAN FFS!
Talks about realism in a game that takes place in the future, if you want realism, go play insurgency: sandstorm, not Titanfall!
This review goes to show you how BAD "gaming journalists" are at gaming. Their reviews are completely useless when they don't know how to properly play the game!
i feel like i have to say this, you may have some good points, but you also have som bad points, like for example the one i realy disagree with, the gameplay front in the end.
i realy dont see anny other shooters having grapling hooks, sliding, wall running or mutch else like titanfall does, the closest one would either be apex (witch is in the same universe and has SOME of the same mechanics) and sometimes fortnite.
i feel like you went in expecting a singleplayer experience like half-life or cod but got something else, it's not something for everyone, but you realy should have given it a fair shot. This realy is nothing like half life.
sorry if i seem mad, have a god day:)
This vid is an L
You could play the game in a better way, the movement is everything.
The campaign does a very bad job at using the movement tho, master difficulty transforms the game into COD/HALO.
Also you attacked people that like to focus on one game man ;-;
This game has more 'experiences' if you learn to play it. My fun with this game is learning movement tech and using it in multiplayer or trying to speedrun singleplayer.
If you want to learn this things you should watch the youtuber bryonato "ultimate movement guide", don't play the campaign in higher difficulties, and raise that FOV a lot ):D
The pilot gameplay feels fast and extreme to a good player, and the titan sections lets you take a breath.
And you can "quickswap" titan loadouts in singleplayer by pressing F1 and changing loadouts quickly xd
wow your video really opened my eyes, this game really doesn't deserve the hype or praise.
lmao just kidding
though I will bestow on you 1 engagement and try to understand your criticisms
yes your typical gamers are this stupid, I've watched maybe different 20 playthroughs and a lot of them couldn't figure out how to jump the gap and some don't even notice the guidance hologram, remember this is the first mission after the tutorial and most fps at the time don't feature advanced movement mechanics. It is the game designer's job to teach players how to play their game no matter the player's skill level, bonus points for making it seamless.
Titan health actually functions like pilot health, the regenerating part is the shield. Actually, this is what some early Halo games did. Regenerating damage taken can be thought of as a forgiveness system. As pilot they expect you to take some damage, they forgive this damage as a way to encourage you to play less conservatively otherwise you would be playing it like a tactical cover shooter. They even give you a disengage in the form of cloak. Titan combat is designed to be more on the tactical side, less hitscan, more projectiles and telegraphed attacks. It's slower because it's a game of resource management. A morsel of natural regeneration is to protect you from small arms fire or death by a thousand cuts.
BT sprints at 37km/h which is actually faster than a pilot's wall run at 30km/h, so it must be a matter of perspective. What I'm getting from you is that you're not too fond of the tactical combat in the game seeing as you do not care for cover, so why do you have a preference for health pickups? I think the system serves its purpose so I don't quite understand what the problem is, maybe you could elaborate.
I don't mind the idea of a shared ammo pool but this and a weapon wheel tend to push the feel of pilot combat towards the tactical side. I think this was a conscious decision because the campaign was made to be a tutorial for the multiplayer and the developers want to get the players acquainted with every type of weapon.
narrative is one of those subjective things where a lot of people want something specific out of it, few people can appreciate stories for what it is when it's outside their preference. I'm unlikely to convince you of my opinion but I will say that what they try to do they do well. Its limited runtime restricts its narrative scope, so it chooses to focus on one thing that matters most: your connection with BT. In order to ensure the impact of the ending all other characters can't be too important or too personal with the player, yes making someone else more will make BT less. The worldbuilding is there but relegated to the background and the environment. This isn't a game that doesn't tell you, it simply doesn't have the time to tell you, and that's because it's gameplay first. If you take some time to look around closely you will learn a lot more. Also this is the second game, people should expect to be missing some information if they've never played the first.
Why does the dialogue choice exist? to exchange pleasantries, to build your connection with your titan, to provide worldbuilding. It's immersion, it feels more like you the player is participating in the conversation instead of the guy you're playing as, helps that you can stay silent if you wish. you don't have to choose both dialogues to do anything at any point, in your onscreen example you can climb on his hand without saying anything. If the dialogue choices have no effect then why did you feel a sense of urgency? Missing a choice should be no big deal. Should the options stay on screen and cause the next one to be missed or mistimed? Some even say this makes a good reason to replay the game.
Don't have much to say about the collectibles, just that it has them because CoD has them, and that game is more realistic.
also wanted to share some loose thoughts
consider it bonus engagement
I’m one of those who found pilot combat to be way more enjoyable and I found the campaign lacking in pilot vs titan combat with you as pilot.
The downtime when nothing is going on is called pacing. There is something going on though, usually in the environment but sometimes it’s meant to be buildup.
The overarching narrative is actually more like space american revolution
I have to wonder why you chose to use the stairs when you could have just jumped up the platform. You seem to be separating the shooter part and the platformer part of the game when the game wants you to shoot while flying around. It’s not CoD, hipfire accuracy is very high for this reason.
I don’t see cloak being used once, did you forget it exists? This is why your direct approach didn’t work.
Between this and dishonored 2 I think titanfall wins best time travel level, I kind of hated dishonored’s execution, didn’t mix well with the gameplay like titanfall did.
Arguably the worst review I have ever seen
Your whole review is just sad.
The game is not meant to be realistic, its based on the future.
I wonder why titans are slow? there like these massive machines of course they're not gonna be lightning mcqueen
The holograms, every game has directions to teach players what to do. its there for the helpfulness but its also apart of the game. the holograms are about other pilots, possibly Tai (his mentor) could be his hologram. its the same as games saying w to move forward s to go backwards blah blah. it seems stupid but not everyone has played games before, its there to help and is a key feature of every video game in existent.
The AI is easy because your on easy mode.
I can not bother to type more but basically, your review is horrible. Maybe think about the game without you start yapping mate.
9:30 that's not what a mcguffin is though. Also, while I don't think your review is a good one , you disliked the game and there isn't really anything the tf2 community can do about it, except overreacting ig. I think a lot of people have reccomended you try the multiplayer, but I don't think you'd like that either so maybe just play something else and try not to mind the comments too much
Honestly, I really wasn't expecting for the video to gain any traction whatsoever. I'm glad it performs so well in terms of engagement. Heck, I might want to just continue making contrarian videos for the hell of it /s
@@AvocadoDiaboli yeah someone posted a screenshot of your video on the game's subreddit and it kinda blew up
@@AvocadoDiabolido it I want to see more horrible takes. Also get better, please you suck at this.
Bro dont make a yt video again pls
Worst takes i have ever heard on a game review, you should seek work at ign
Oh boy, criticizing Titanfall 2... let me guess, the fanboys will shit on you... yup 🤣
For a pretty good reason, it makes me and many others probably pretty sad to see such a great game being criticized unfairly (many if not all of these critiques could be argued against, and his sole focus on the campaign is really unfair)
Boooooo L take
This might just be the worst video ever
85% dislikes, lets see whats going on here<
Edit:
It seems like its 2 different groups of players are clashing here. i dont think 85% is justified.
It honestly is, this dude is just another guy is just an underthemayo wannabe
i agree with you on paper but your gameplay is so bad that i dont want to agree with you.
Criticism on Titanfall shows that you are not a sheep.
Titanfall games were always generic, mid call of duty copies
how
Im sorry but does call of duty have giant robots that fall from the sky?
It's funny how call of duty copied titainfall systems after it came out. Also, yes, titanfall has cod inspirations; it's almost like respawn devs came from Infinity Ward when they left and made their own company.
@@rileylaffin8410 But they did copy their movement
Even if you're wrong i hope that at least it's an opinion on the campaign only
7:44 all right so out of all the things you could’ve said I feel like the most controversial was talking about how BT his voice lines are redundant because there’s no second alternative ending if you choose one or the other so I am very close to just not watching the rest of this and I hope I don’t make a third comment because this is a little bit extreme. you claim Titan combat is slow and not fun and yet don’t know how to sprint as you pilot Titans, even though you probably had adjusted your settings at least once and yet the first thing you see is auto sprint settings and the option for pilots only auto sprint, Titans only auto sprint, and New auto sprint whatsoever
