What if Fallout was An Adventure Game But in Africa?
Beautiful Desolation is a unique post apocalypse adventure game set in Africa, that's got a lot of vibes from Fallout, but does it's own thing by adding some South African culture.

The BEST Game to Get You Into BattleTech

the Whispers would kill me on the spot....
Good review thanks
5/10 for me
The gaalsien was right
I owned the GBA version and then the Wii version back in day. I still recall completing it.
The music be best bless Michael mccann
13:45 Sniper's face looks like John Fallout
You don't need scientist - they just little speed up research - it's very minor impact - at the end of the game you be limited only by the number of weapon fragments. And Exalt dosn't help aliens - they use alien tech like xcom.
I thought you talked about the actual good one, the original Xcom, lol.
Amazing review, I discovered you a bit late but it's well worth.
Glad the algorithm brought me here.
Lmao, that Castle line killed me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
13:32 i dont think this would really work; id think "wow thats such a low chance"
this is the best review for the game on TH-cam
Thanks :)
Still fully holds up. An absolute must-play for anyone even remotely interested in sci fi stories and/or strategy games.
Stumbled into your AI Wars 2 video (constant internal debate if I buy it each time it's on sale) and thought it was well done, so I checked out this one. Really good content and loved hearing about this game. Reminds me a lot of Mandalore and I hope you get more attention because your style, editing, and commentary are all solid.
The algorithm has brought me here. When I saw the thumbnail, I thought mandalore gaming
You wouldn’t need a nuclear war to get the post apocalyptic feeling in Africa
The algorithm smiles upon you. Great video. Time to binge all your other ones.
....but that is just South Africa today
Thank you youtube for this banger
You never want to be a knock off.
???
Fallout is a knock off of Wasteland. So knock offs can work if you do them right.
I meant your channel, at least change the thumbnail.
@@matthewfairman1475it's cool
@@matthewfairman1475 he can do whatever the heck he wants. Its his channel after all.
Your reviews are always great. Keep it up!!
Great review! It's always good to see a video from your channel :D You really deserve more subsribers!
Just watched the XCOM2 you made and both of these are absolutely lovley
at least in xcom enemy you can slowly crawl against the AI...in xcom 2 is flat out retarded and ridiculos how much u miss and lose soldiers ...
The only flaw with this game is graphics. Lithtech engine was a bit downgraded compared to other engines at the time so this game feels like a 98/99 game instead of 2001/2002. The use of the lights of AVP 1 was better. BTW this game is the best of the series.
4:11 Finally! You are the first person I know to notice that. I thought that I was going crazy! No one talks about that.
Yeah they used elephants to get the sound.
I find the making of this game hilarious because this isn't what the lead dev wanted to make according to the interviews and XCOM:Chimera Squad and Midnight Suns.
I did have to turn off the music completly when you listening to it all the time it became disturbing and annoying.😁
Dragon age origins is very underrated. First of all combat in DA 2 is best in sieries. Story is emotionally.
Less movie referencing and more game please.
Does anyone have a clue what this guy's first sentence was? Otherwise cool video 😏
Even so, it still doesn't beat the OG 94 original. 🤪
great review
8:32 i remember running out of ammo in this level because there were so many aliens
7:56 i hate the facehuggers
hadeda jumpscare
damn xcom is dead
It isn’t, new videos from well known xcom 2 TH-camr’s get tens of thousands or 100k views
I wish there was warhammer 40k game like Xcom. I know theres one already but its just not as polished as xcom 1. That world is so interesting
3:15 - "Know better from their" -- I go "Blood" and he says "F.E.A.R and Middle Earth games". Oh. Yes, that would be more recent. 🧓
How would feel if I told you that Dragon Age 4 ignores Origins and 2 for the sake of a single world state and continuity?
It's not too bad, each game has a different main character so it's not as important to me. But I can see it being a sticking point for others.
Amazing game, spent hours and hours on it...
I play xcom enemy unknown on xbox360 unfortunately many of the customisation and other features seem to be unavailable for me because dlc :(
Slave Zero is an arcade shooter done right: Just you. A fabagillion enemies, and a shit ton of weapons to kill said enemies with. Combined with the anime aesthetic and feeling of being a mech, and you have a blast to play.
Wonder why this remastered version has never been released to consoles?
I think the focus was on mobile when Revolution made the remaster, maybe one day they will make a console version.
@@InfoGuyGaming , I hope so. With Shadow of the Templars Reforged now available for the Series X, I would like to play The Smoking Mirror Remastered afterwards.
@@SagaciousFrank If Reforged does well we might get it :)
Do you think youll review the Reforged version thats just come out. I really like it its way better than the Directors Cut
I might eventually, just got a lot of games to get through first lol
@@InfoGuyGaming do you have any C.R.T. filters
@@ShrekFhiyona Nope
@@InfoGuyGaming The Video Games 1980s, 1990s and 2000s looks better on C.R.T. monitors. The reason is because they were made with C.R.T. monitors in mind
I prefer the first amv briefings (with actors). They are not so over the top. And the first version of the game (not the gold edition) had no save states at all. You had to finish the levels without saving. I mannaged to do this years ago on hard - today it's much more difficult to me (I think I'm old :/ ).
The intro cinematic was made for Battletech fans. It tells the story of this universe from Project Deimos, to the Exodus, to the formation of the Star League, to the unification wars, and ended with the Amaris Civil War that ended the Star League.
3:01 Snape?
