I think 2063 was the year that the nuclear war started i say this because of the pre war tech that we see

25:00 This game is broken & worthless. I've been wandering around the entire map(s) for almost an hour. Cleared the entire torture chamber, killed all the prisomers didn't receive the computer key. Went to the pyramid and was told to go back to the empty torture chamber. At least I only paid $3.99. This game is on par with Duke Nukem Forever & Youngblood.

I wish one of the upgrades for the mac 10 in this game would modify the gun to use .45 bullets instead of 9mm giving the gun a damage upgrade

Hello ?

Nice run. Turok 4 should be continued no matter what.

I told the guard I planted a bomb in that first warehouse and he laughed thinking I was joking and let me go lol.

Razor Wind kills = flawless entertainment 😊

That unexpected grabbing new weapons and secrets won the episode 😂

Hi Chozo. I'm just checking in to see how you're doing. Have you figured out what your next playthrough will be? You don't have to tell me what it is.

the ship you were on was the stroggs

Totally love that commentary! Review every weapon, enemies, levels etc. Love it!

Best Ashes game, a masterpiece. It's crazy that this is a free game, it blasts most AAA titles out of the water.

The music playing during this map reminds me of the track playing in the original Mass Effect during character creation, some good dark synth stuff.

They went above and beyond with the level designs in this game. Super impressive. Love the colours too.

really appreciate the "chapters" in your videos, great work.

Woo! Just did corpse run on nightmare. Good lord the casali effect secret level - barely escaped w 13 health left and a soiled pair of pants 🤣🤣🤣

That song in the Burritora isn't a remix of Into Sandy's City. It's Running from Evil.

Corpse Run is one of those special levels that holds such surprise and terror for the unaware, first time run. I knew I was in for it when the BFG was just spinning silently in front of me right off the bat!

43:43 ℹ️ Legionnaires do appear here in the remastered version!

I injected a stim to win the race

Also, I love you ❤️

This one takes more deaths from me than E3M9, Jacob is unpredictable and fast and that’s just the bane of me, Nyarlathotep is easy

I used every guide yhank you so much funny real and full thorough 🎉

Love this map! I prefer no throwables and circle-strafing (with less trampoline jumps) it’s harder, but it’s faster, and for the boss I save the blistering heat, makes dodging a reasonable venture

Oooh, dusk sequel!

I did not found a granade launcher, so I pretty much wasted most of my EMP grenades, throwing is so weird in this game LOL

This game gives so much nostalgia

Humble bundle just had Dark Forces Remastered in a bundle. I'm playing through my nostalgia now and just found you. I'll be watching every level, lol

Same bug happened to me before facing the Hammer. I thought there was supposed to be a door there that had the wrong dimensions. I ended up just nocliping but I'm glad to hear it wasn't just me.

Hrrmmm. E2M6 on Nightmare, but starting from weapons inherited from previous levels

Can this guide be used for 100% Platinum on PlayStation?

Hey man. I played this game a log time ago and I think I remember some white marble room that you get teleported into. Can you please help me see that one more time?

*Small PSA:* Later releases of Hard Reset have added a new workbench upgrade for the Boltcaster that you can nab from this level forward. It's a power magnifier that makes both kinds of bolts hit even harder. And I mean HARD - two explosive bolts kill a Haunt dead, and those guys have 500 HP! Only one downside, though, in that if you miss a shot with a regular bolt you cannot get it back anymore. Not a problem if you're a steady shot, though. Sommerville seems like a pretty nice location, very Metro 2033-esque. It's sad to imagine that it was completely lost by 2063 when the mutants rolled in.

If there is ever a level to showcase the Boltcaster, it's Cordon here. The silent operation is very handy for the stealth segment (arguably handier than even the silenced police pistol with hollow points) and the sheer firepower of each bolt makes it the most useful ranged weapon for these firefights. You don't risk a bandit getting only mostly grazed and surviving on <10% HP - you either hit the quarrel and score a kill, or miss entirely. Plus if you miss you can pick up launched quarrels, at least in this upgrade power level. Plus, archery fits the Ashes world like a glove. Seems very unlikely that only cannibal mutants would be exploiting archery by '63. I cannot blame you for being all light fingers around Murphy. On my blind run, he jumpscared the bejeezus out of me and I landed a textbook meatshot on him with the lever-action. I felt so bad that I immediately reloaded and kept my hand way off the mouse buttons 😅

Question for you, Chozo: why did you use shells and bolts and pistol ammo on Wendigos, rather than hosing them down with the rifle like you did the Withered? I tested the exact reverse strategy on this map and it worked out extraordinarily well. Wendigos have no response to being chewed up by a wall of 5.56mm bullets, and Withered are slow so potshotting them with less powerful ammo types was extremely productive. That said, I know this was recorded on a much earlier build than the v1.05 I'm playing now.

I hope who ever made this level gets diarrhea for a week

I wandered around the police station for twenty fuckin minutes before looking this walkthrough up. The level is impossible to complete unless you blow up a random fucking barrel. I love this game so far, but *man* that one is over the line

How do you add the map stats to your UI? (Kills, secret, etc) Been looking like a madman at the options.

At first in 2063 we got the briefcase as just a MacGuffin. For all we knew and it mattered to us, it could have been filled with old manga books and D&D figurines that Rigs ordered from Smiley. Then in Afterglow we find out it's a mysterious computer, and a dangerously coveted one too. Smiley explains that even he doesn't know quite where it was from. And now, we know who introduced them to the caravan trade circuit. And unlike with Dead Man Walking and the Rippers (that happned but not exactly as we played it), we know it's likely to be direct canon. The buildup of the plot is awesome.

RIP sexy, big b00b Varni...

10:31 I don't wanna be a smarty pants, but the protection factor of both metal and leather armors is the same in the code: 40%. The metal armor just lasts longer. The Legendary Armor in Afterglow (Mad Max's jacket?) does confer 50% protection though!

When you walk into the room with the 100 health just before the final fight there is a Spawn hidden "behind" you in one of the other corridors. I find the easiest way to deal with the final room is to rocket snip the vores from outside as quick as possible, then deal with whatever comes out to you. Then hit the spawns. Then enter the room. This map is generous with ammo so not too bad.

I'm not sure if Apocalypse difficulty gives enemies innate damage reduction or if the Empties were nerfed in subsequent versions, but for me on Arcade regular Empties went down with one hard crowbar whack, and always without splitting into torsos when I sneak-attacked them. It was easy to stealth through the entire first half of the school.

Two Quad Damages in a row? John Romero's levels, in particularly this episode, are slept on.

Zombies were the most surprising for me because I'm, so used to them being just cannon fodders in most games. First time I encountered them I was like "What the hell?" because they were suddenly all over me after I just killed them. lol

The Ring of Shadows is basically The Ring from "Lord of the Rings."

Wow. This is so under appreciated! Fantastic work! I can't wait to watch through the whole playthrough because I will be attempting to become Shub's Bud! Thank you for all the work you put into this!

Some of the references in this game are hilarious. Matango? I think the creators have seen Attack Of The Mushroom People aka Matango.

how would anyone EVER know to shoot those canisters to advance. I thought the level design was great up until then

Chozo, are there any chances that you'll cover Valfaris and Valfaris: Mecha Therion?
