When used properly you become a deadly ambush predator with the cloak. If you're trying to beat RAGE MODE you can use it to disengage if you need to reload or otherwise take a break and in straight combat you can quickly cloak and get around/behind enemies.
Is it weird to say that cloaking feels more like a dice roll than a "gtfo of jail free card?" I stg, the amount of times I've died while cloaked is a running gag in itself...
@@beardbreeder5886 I think I have a semi explanation now that this game is my hyperfixation, it's imo, realized that 106 is a subject like itself and considering 106 it's brother wanted him to kill it so it doesn't have to suffer as it's own literal dimension (which I assume would be painful and lonely if it can feel) and helped him activate the Lazer canon and used the last of its power saving him from the subsequent explosion.

Personal advice from my own experience playing the game: Get rid of the Crosshair; "stealth dot" is all you need to aim. Shadow Stealth is, all things considered, a fancy way of hinting you that you're a Black Ops unit. Turn the lights off, make every shot count, and terrify your enemies with an enemy they can't kill because they can't make two cents as to where the Hell it even is.
Something that surprised me is how deep the lore is. I'm serious, if you take your time with the intel logs and pay attention to the dialogue you'll realise the depth this world has. I'd recommend point kid's lore explanation if anyone's interested
every day people talk about Trepang² is a fucking great day also please be sure to play the DLC it was honestly some of the most fun and awe I've had in an fps in... ever
I laughed several times within the first minute and a half which earned a sub from me just from that and the review was really good as well! I genuinely like your style and will be watching your backlog and future videos :)
Cloak is better used to enable aggressive tactics than it is at engaging in stealth imo. Enemy suppression isnt shit on hard mode(my recommended mode for starting off with genre-experienced players), and the cloak allows you to duck and weave between their gunfire in order to get close and land impressive combos. A powerhouse sneaking through the shadows is scary, but what is even scarier is one you know isnt trying to get away, but instead get closer.
i followed this game since it was just in a demo years ago, and i fucking loved it then, and then the game came out and it was just as good, nay, INFINITELY BETTER than the old demo
I mean, I'm absolutely gonna pick it up once it's cheaper, but the main missions being just a couple hours is a pretty big negative. I wouldn't mind it if the side missions were also long levels, but it seems like they are just the wave based missions from the demo. Don't get me wrong, plenty of fun in that, but running around one big arena killing spawning enemies is not the same as traversing a hand-crafted level where each new fight has a different environment. There's a reason FEAR keeps you moving forward even if the entire level is in an office or a construction site, those changes in the environment go a long way in making each encounter feel distinct even if you're just shooting the same enemies.
I agree with this one most of mission are just wave base enemies like Gunnason Complex / Iron Dragon Data Center / Kellington and Oil Rig it kinda boring for me
This game is some kind of psychopathy test; and we all fail or succeed (and I dont know what scares me more). Also semi-auto spas cut for being to being to OP...**SEMI AUTO SPAS WHEN**
@@beardbreeder5886 Good luck mate! Rage was a pretty fun experience once I realized it's infinitely more entertaining when you go almost exclusively sword-schizo throughout each level lol, Wish you luck on beating it :)
Because this is Trepang2 they made they own game they own storyline they not gonna copy of try to he another plus why not just dual weild weapon instead ? Like 1 sword and dual weild shotgun that it you got 3 weapons why only 2 weapons ? Because it an game balance if you can carrying more then 2 gun it will make you too OP and the game will become boring immediately and too easy now i understand you want to go rampage but 2 should be enough for the game itself and it only made by 4 people it already epic and good by itself technically dual weild 2 shotgun and 2 Smg will be 4 weapons on your weapon slots you run out of ammo ?

Cloak isn't for stealth. Cloak is used in combat to break contact with enemies without breaking line of sight, letting you reposition and flank.
And get the focus bar up without too much risk
Exactly! Its a must for the highest difficulties. If you dont master this trick you get shredded in seconds.
Yeah but most of the time I accidentally click M1 and it uncloaks me before I could even reposition.

Trepang2 is the sequel to Trepang
Where you are a 2d sea cucumber because thats what trepang is, a sea cucumber
Either that or they used Trepang2 as a placeholder title but end up sticking with it
Yeah, I talk about that later in the video. From what I understand, it was a codename that just sort of stuck around
I thought I read somewhere that was it supposed to be trepang squared
The studio behind the game is called “trepang studios” so it was almost certainly just a placeholder name that ended up sticking
One thing is for certain: it's an iconic game with the weirdest name ever *_and loved it too much to ask for a legal name change!_*
As someone who went through the ball crush session that was 100% on Rage mode game is beyond a dopamine factory.
in rage mode i feel like they're all super soldiers too but i have stealth, also steel dragon data center is HAAAARD on rage mode

i bought this game expecting some ultrakill type of casual fps. Then the hospital part came, and.. f that
It's not so bad, I can't play Horror stuff myself and hate getting jumpscared but the Hospital Part 2 was fine.
If the main game is kick ass, the sword dlc makes it kick even more ass, seriously, you can roleplay as a cowboy ninja samurai

"I thought she was a psychic..?"

Sounds like my jam

I remember playing dusk and it was the best fps I’d played until I found trepang a year ago and it the best game I’ve ever played
Check the “ side “ missions with more attention . They unlock cool weapons & cheats . The rocket launcher with infinite ammo is discusting :D
just finished the whole campaign on rage mode🔥🔥🔥
