Thanks, it took so much longer than it deserved, and yeah you're right, I can definitely see the similarities. I haven't thought of that thing in years.

Aye, yet it's spelled blame, and I've been dying on this hill for 15 years. Also gif.

@@KalTheSkeleton the joke makes no sense because i can't hear you but i know what you meant if we went by the data you would be wrong regardless

I once worked with a man named Tony who told me he didn't like cocaine, but he liked the way it smelled. That is all. Thanks for watching.

@KalTheSkeleton I only jest. I've never done drugs. Too many cop shows with my dad.😅

That checks out, both are pretty great. Thanks for checking out the video.

I was having much the same experience until I found that video and spent an hour or so tooling around the first level. It was really fun after that, but definitely a learning curve.

That didn't really fit the vibe was I going for in this one anyway, so I trimmed it out, though it may take awhile for TH-cam to finish processing it.

​@@KalTheSkeleton thank you 🥺

I do have at least the first one of those on ps2 and from what I saw it seemed like a pretty solid game, but I haven't gotten very far in it. I was referencing this article from Famitsu that says he wanted to make a new "stealth ninja game" but that seemed like a weird way to phrase it if it were going to be a sequel to Shinobido. Apparently the connection to Tenchu was based on them renewing the trademark for "Stealth Assassins" in 2018, but that was allegedly just a formality. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video.

@@KalTheSkeleton No problem man keep up with the good content👍

Man that's really cool, I miss being able to invest in a single game at that level. I wouldn't have even thought it was possible to catch up to them in time to get them again before the death counted, it would be worth the score differential. I would never encourage someone to download a game for free and emulate it, but it sure would be easy to commit such a nefarious act. Roms and emulators abound, be safe out there.

You know, I agree. It's awesome spectacle, but the emotional roller-coaster of the intro has such large, consistent spikes that it makes the middle feel kind of flat by comparison. Maybe if they had started with Kalrow, then Wyzen and then the first Yasha fight, it would have broken things up a little more. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video. This is the longest I've made and it didn't get a ton of traction, so I figured it was less enjoyable. I'm glad you liked it.

But how could you even listen to the video if my voice kept making you want fried chicken?

Ooh, another CyberConnect classic. I looked back at them when I was doing Asura's Wrath. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll have to check it out.

That's really cool, I read a little bit about the work that went in to the mocap, but didn't see any specifics about the actors themselves. I've always got time for a terrible movie based on a video game.

I actually wondered the same because I had also played Wrath of Heaven (solid agree that it's the best one.) Apparently in Japan that one is just called "Tenchu 3". Also I guess those translation are kind of fuzzy, one possible meaning is "Wrath of Heaven" and another is "Divine Retribution". I dunno though, I'm not a Japanesiologist. Thanks for checking out the video.

Ha, yeah! I was curious if anyone would notice that. Unfortunately, I completely failed to capitalize on that moment of surprise.

I can see why, I look forward to getting further in to it. Thanks for checking out the video.

Turns out good video too!

It's an awesome game, I'm glad I finally got around to it. Thanks for watching.

Jokes aside, it can be challenging to try to stay in that vibe when youtube is so strongly geared towards a younger audience and short attention spans, but that's all the more reason that it's what I want to be. As a mid-thirties myself, I can't stand that stuff. Thanks for checking it out.

Thank you, glad it found you.

Wuff I know it's only been like 6 months but this one is easily my least favorite thing I've posted lol. Maybe it deserves a re-recording. Still, glad you liked it.

Ha, well hopefully the video was good too. I appreciate you checking it out.

Fuck yeah, cook 'em up Chef.

@@KalTheSkeleton with joy!

Hell yes comrades !

I generally try to keep my personal beliefs out of the videos, but I couldn't have less pity for those at the top grinding those at the bottom into the dirt. Now I'm worried that I didn't present my feelings on the controls properly, because I think Tenchu has some of the better controls of what I've played across the PS1. They can feel awkward at first in the context of a stealth action ninja game, especially in comparison to something like a survival horror game where the enemies are usually slower and there are less of them, but after some time I had no problems. Camera controls are always awkward in games that can't utilize the right thumbstick, I think the only PS1 game I've played that had that as an option was MegaMan Legends 2, and some ps2 games still weren't handling it great either. Neither of those two thing ruined my fun, and the two together was only a mild hindrance even when I had just started the game because it's so forgiving when the enemies hit you, that's why I called it clunky, though even that was more a loving jab at dark souls. Overall, I had a great time with Tenchu. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video.

Your investment is appreciated, glad to have you.

I'll do my best, thanks for checking it out.

Thanks, I appreciate you giving it a look.

Thank you, I appreciate you checking it out.

They've caused me nothing but trouble, thanks for checking out the video.

@@KalTheSkeleton Can imagine, and thank you.

Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to check the video out.

Ha, you're absolutely right, though I should give BG&E the credit that it seemed like it chose those things genuinely. Executed them poorly to be sure, but at least it wasn't just following another formula. Thanks for checking out the video.

Blows your mind. Frosted Tips, denim, the dot com bubble, hit clipz? It was clearly the best decade, and that has nothing to do with it being the only time when I had more friends than bills.

@@KalTheSkeleton y2k never forget 👺 millions lost 😔

I wasn't even aware there was a vita entry, but I do have Shinobido for, I believe, the PS2. I thought it would be a good one to look into once I make it a little farther in the series. No excuse for any of those handheld games to be stuck on those systems anymore. We live in a society.

@KalTheSkeleton especially for the sequel to the original game to be locked on a handheld no less! At least vita emulation is starting to take shape so it may be playable soon in good quality

@@MrDark086 Despite loving my PSP for years, I completely avoided the Vita, so I would be glad to finally check some of those games out. Not that I would ever condone emulation, no no, not me.

@@KalTheSkeleton Hopefully the games it had see a release soon enough. It had some pretty banger titles for its pitiable library. Soul Sacrifice would be one i'd love to see return. Monster Hunter but I just crushed by eyeball to use the power of a gorgon and summon 3 massive boulders to fire petrifying lasers at you for 2 minutes to eke out a cheap win

@@MrDark086 I've been a huge Monster Hunter fan since Freedom on the PSP, so that description has my attention. I'll have to keep an eye on that Vita emulation, so I can avoid it properly.

If you weren't constantly bouncing off the same brick wall, were you even having fun as a kid? I'm glad you think so. I'm just throwing darts at a board over here but thankfully it's a board full of bangers so it's hard to go wrong.

That's pretty cool, I love that feeling too. I usually would just see games like these at friends houses, but never actually get to play them. Going back to these older games now sometimes makes me feel just a little bit like a kid again.

Yeah and I'm glad for it because personally I'm not very good at stealth games. I'm reminded of that painfully every time I try to get in to Splinter Cell. Of course, because this game doesn't shut the door on you when you get caught, I eventually got to the point of actually enjoying it's stealth too.

It was going to be, though I'm glad they made Sekiro it's own thing instead of just stretching the Tenchu name over it. Thanks for checking the video out.

In a lot of ways I agree. Even if the systems were still rough, this game has a lot of good things going for it. Thanks for checking out the video.

Agreed

I hate Classic, X, Zero, Battle Network, and ZX. Star Force is pretty cool, but Legends is my fav.

@@zeromaycryboi I think classic and X is cool, but easily has the most wasted potential, but Capcom and S tier at falling to modernize the two main line Megamans. Not counting reboots and off shoots. Like we could have 3d open world megaman game, where you hunt down bosses, with the feel of Spyro. I haven't played Ratchet and Clank, so I don't know about that one. But looks like id fit megaman

​@@zeromaycryboiI've never tried ZX or star force but legends is definitely the only Mega man I've ever clicked with. So if course, we'll never see another lol.

You're definitely right, Capcom seems to have no clue what to do with any of the Megaman series so they just keep rereleasing the old ones instead.

Like I said before, the super elections are our last shot.

Yeah, I don't know if the idea was a setup for some big sequel, but it's a shame that's where the series ended.

I'm firmly on team Tron for this one. Trigger will be laying awake in bed for years thinking about the signs he missed.

I hope it doesn't let you down. As much as I liked the game, It doesn't really lend itself to the same level of humor as the first video.

@KalTheSkeleton it was still a really good video. I actually bought a 3DS for legends 3, and after I had my 3DS it got cancelled. I was really salty about it.

Oh that's brutal. I mean I loved my 3ds, but the betrayal would live with me forever.

@@KalTheSkeleton yeah I also loved the 3DS but before I was on the fence. I would have got one eventually though because Majora's Mask 3D would have 100% made me buy one. Since that was like one of my favorite games on the N64. I just remember being so excited for Legends 3, it was crushing. I played so much of Legends 1 and 2 as a like 8-10 year old. It was like a piece of my childhood back when you would just replay the same games over and over again.

You know, I agree. I always love stuff like that in a game. Like it's rewarding me for actually being invested in the world.

Trigger is my digger from another mother lode.

@ 🤣

Thank you, for the compliment and watching.

Thanks for checking it out.
