Yars Rising is exactly the sort of new game Atari should be making.

    It's very refreshing to see such a positive opinion and overall demeanor in a space that's so often full of, as you called them, grumpy old Atari fans.

    As an old school Atari and Yar fan, this game looks amazing to me.

    I must admit, I was a bit skeptical when I saw the announcement for Yars Rising, but this video has won me over by demonstrating what the team is trying to do with it. Quite frankly, this looks amazing, and I'm definitely going to pick this up. :)

    Nice review. Very informative. Good to find a postive video on the game. I am having fun with it, but several videos I have watched were harsh on it.

    Thanks for the brief history on relevant media, Pete.
    The movement looks a bit sluggish for me, but otherwise it looks like a decent introduction for people raised on Nintendos and PlayStations to come back around to Atari's catalog.
    I wouldn't mind it being on the easy side as long as it doesn't waste your time when you know what you are doing or if you want to get straight into the action.

    I demoed this on Steam Deck and enjoyed pretty much everything minus some of the dialogue. Between this video and the demo I think I'm ready to go buy the thing. Good video!

    A superb game, and I'm loving the hacking game.
    There's a limited edition Yars Rising 2600 cart being sent to lucky ATARI fans right now.
    This ATARI is the most ATARI that ATARI have been since the 70s and 80s.

    It looks like a quintessential Wayforward game to me: a nice premium presentation with an emphasis on animation, but gameplay that leans on familiar tropes and tends to be a bit sluggish and padded out (to better show off that animation). That studio has a formula, they've used it for decades now and it seems to work for them and their audience. I enjoyed the last one of theirs I picked up(River City Girls), although I'm on the fence about this one as an Atari fan. They are a pretty good pick for reviving an old IP and making something consumable out of it.

      You're the second person to perceive it being "sluggish" and, having played it extensively, I don't really understand where that's coming from. The controls are responsive and tight, which is what you want from a platformer. There's no waiting around for animations to finish; you push left, she goes left. You let go, she stops, immediately.
      In terms of movement speed and pacing, it's akin to an Iga-era Castlevania, which are benchmarks for the genre. It's not a game about charging around at full tilt, it's about exploring and taking your time to be thorough. I certainly didn't feel it was sluggish at any point during play!

      ​Maybe there is a second set of subtitles for people who speak Sluggish.

    Now that I’ve played through the game, it’s one of my favorite games this year.

    I should be getting my VCS delivered this afternoon. I'll definitely be purchasing this.

  • @merccat67

    I happened to get the VCS right when Yars Rising was released so it was my first title (other than the included Vault). It has been an enjoyable game, but I’m approaching the end. I hope more titles like this come out, especially if mixed up with different genera’s.

    I'm not a Yars fan but I can see they put a lot of love into the game!

    Personally, I want to see what else Atari can reboot in order to put themselves on the map again. I was thinking that IPs like Crystal Castle should become a 3D platformer or something.

    • @ThisIsPete
      @ThisIsPete  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah! That would be great. Would also be interested to see what someone could do with Adventure.

    I felt like Yars Rising had a lot of really great things going on for it (especially the music) but there were some issues I had with it. Namely the momentum abilities having start and end lag was frustrating, and some plot elements being swept under the rug (will not be specific about it for spoiler reasons, but they have to deal with certain bosses.)

    It's an interesting game, should just have been a new ip imho

    I was on the fence about this game myself. Not because of any spunky anime girl though (frankly gaming needs more of those!), but I wasn't sure if I would enjoy this game. Now thanks to your video I might give it a shot.

    Looks pretty cool other than the stiff and unnatural character animations. I would have expected better from the studio that made Shante. 🤔🤔

    11:15 Wait, is that a Crystal Castles reference?!

    • @ThisIsPete
      @ThisIsPete  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Entirely likely, given the rest of the game! :)
