I was going to dedicate this channel to video essays about games AND movies. My first movie video got copyright blocked and that kinda killed it for me. GAMES IT IS THEN! I talk about games, game mechanics, what makes a game good or bad, what games should have been, could have been, missed opportunities, and welcome surprises. But this is not a review site. There are enough of those. I post monthly, at best, because I put a ton of animation and editing into my essays. They are meant to be entertaining and thought-provoking. I invite you to subscribe. You'll get fewer than 12 notifications/year of new content.
THIS is what killed Star Wars Outlaws
Star Wars Outlaws was not the cash cow Ubisoft hoped it would be. In this video, I break down every aspect of the game's mechanics to reveal a gorgeous open-world that offers shallow gameplay, lacking many basic mechanics that even older game had. All this, while providing sparse innovations that would enable a player to truly play the game their own way.
