    I still think that Star Fox 64 is peak video game story telling. It does so much with so little. And because of how little it gives you to work with, you will fill in the gaps based on your own individual player experience. There is simply not enough hard answers in the game to refute your own head-canons and that makes the viewer interpretation way more meaningful than any hard answers.

    • @ivanavi123
      @ivanavi123 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

    • @sayuriartsy5108

      @@ivanavi123 What I remember when I played the game was that I was under the impression that the red scores and medals were an indication that Fox was feeling good about the results in so far that it was him thinking that he was able to do that particular mission at least as good as his Father would have handled it. A lot of characters speak to Fox about his Father throughout the game, but friend or foe, Fox consistently pretends that he is not hearing it, as he never replies to any of it. His silence spoke volumes to me, because it made me think that it really does get to him, as he does not see himself as the hero the Lylat System deserved, but only the one that they will have to make due with, and despite how much of a front he gives, he thinks of himself as a loser, almost as if he never got the chance to hear his father tell him that he was proud of him. I was under the impression that when Fox says "I'll go it alone from here." He said that with the full intention that he would die in that tunnel. He had become confident enough in his ability that he would be able to kill Andross, but did not believe he was strong enough to live. How could he, think he could ever accomplish that, after all, James didn't. My experience with the tunnel escape sequence where James appears was that I was under the impression that, the James we see is not a ghost, or a secretly totally still alive James, but rather that it is all in Fox's head, because the James we see and hear is simply a direct visual and audio manifestation of Fox's INSTINCTS, instincts which were given to him by his Father. When the music cuts out and we hear the line "You've become so strong, Fox", is the moment that Fox accepts that he was wrong about himself and truly understands and believes that his Father would have been proud to know that Fox was better than him, and has always believed that Fox would be one day. And nothing that the sequels, or reboots, or supplementary material might suggest otherwise can take away that experience or interpretation away from me.

    Such a great overview video! Like you said multiple times, the voice acting, environments and controls all come together so amazingly for each level. I had no idea you could repair your ship in the Great Fox! I'm not nostolgic for this game at all, but its easily one of my favorite games. I always urge people to play it because its so cinematic and good for small sessions. Even though I've played each route mutiple times, it was really nice to hear anothers opinion on them. Nice video!

    For 1991 this game was absolutely mind blowing for it's time! I grew up with all the classic Sonic games and I like them all for their own individual reasons, Sonic 1 is the beginning and because of that, the most unique I feel. If I had a nickel for every youtuber who says they thought you were supposed to try and just rush through the game I'd have... well about five bucks lol but still. See back then when you were a kid and had like 3 games total to play this was it and you had to sit down and play it over and over until you were finally good enough to beat it in one go but we didn't care, it was amazing just to have a quality game like this in your own home that you could play any time you wanted and so we did! As you get better you notice that you're getting through obstacles more quickly and effortlessly and it was fun to show off your Sonic skills to your friends and siblings because you looked cool as hell playing it! All of your criticisms are absolutely valid but I think you can see why this game was such a big deal back then. I grew up with both the SEGA and Super Nintendo so I never thought Sonic was better than Mario or vice versa, I loved both consoles equally for different reasons. I can see why some people don't like Sonic but I think the kinds of people who say "Sonic was never good" are the kinds of people who are just negative for the sake of being negative ESPECIALLY because Sonic 2 and 3 exist!

    22:59 They retconned it to not be a star in later titles, most notably Star Fox Command, so you aren't crazy to not think it was a star. 23:53 There's ton of "hidden" lore around this particular mission, namely that Vulcain, the boss from Solar, was supposed to be the aforementioned Secret Weapon, not Spyborg, and which boss you fought depended on how you got to Sector X, so if you failed Katina, you would fight Vulcain, but if you failed Fortuna (which is actually mistranslated, its supposed to be Fichina) you would fight Spyborg instead. 36:18 There's some more "hidden" lore that can only be found in game guides and the such (or the wiki) which is that if you end up at Venom 1 (accessed via Bolse) then you give Andross enough time to prepare a decoy because he knows you are coming and his forces have mustered enough strength to hold you off until he can escape. Meanwhile, if you end up at Venom 2 (accessed via Area 6) then you have destroyed enough of his forces, fast enough, that he doesn't have enough time to escape which is why his last line of defense is just Star Wolf in heavily modified and upgraded ships. The ingame story is basically that if you fail at Macbeth or end up at Titania, you take too long to get to Venom (due to having to rescue Slippy at Titania) or you weren't able to disrupt Andross' manufacturing capacity enough (failing Macbeth) that Area 6 is now too fortified for you to assault. If you fail Sector Z, the story is that you don't have the ordinance without Great Fox to attack Area 6. You can actually see this in game, as Area 6 is the only mission where Great Fox will actually attack enemies.

    I always loved the cultural references in Starfox 64. For example the fleet battle outside Cornaria? Forgot spelling, is a parody of Mobile Suit Gundam, with the green mechs being zakus and even a fast one that is painted red that isn't even a named enemy. Then you have the Katina battle which is the film Independence Day. xD
