The fact the tutorial said "get mana from chests" and splat either forgot or didn't read properly and then don't open any chests are classic splat.
It's just classic tutorial too much info dumped at once. Games really need to stop doing that, or at least have some way to at least review important tutorials somehow.
Classic. But for such a critical component of the game, it should have accessible info at hand
@@Urthopifymost games do have a guide in it for anything missed in the tutorial and it’s hurting nobody to read a little more.
first impressions are always like that, wish people spent at least an hour on a game before showing it
@@Urthopify that's what is shown at 4:34
I would say more games use space for jump than for dodge. Tons of games use CTRL, SHIFT, ALT or double direction press to dodge. Games that use space for dodge generally dont have a jump at all.
lol. I thought the exact same thing. Shift is almost always dodge. I can't even think of the last game that had dodge on space.
@@williamedwards4151 remnant from the ashes, and its good try it the sequel is coming soon too
The most recent game I've played that's kind of similar to Ravenbound is Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout FPS/3rd person POV all use spacebar for jump. So yeah, I'd agree, as far as AAA games go. Indie is probably a different story though.
Just got done playing Days Gone, and it used space for dodge.
a lot of games actually use two keys to dodge, typically being block and jump
30:40 "Yeah, it looks like I get health back when I hit enemies or something...I dunno"
After the game already told him that. Classic Splatt
Love Splat, sometimes I wonder if he can only see 50% of the screen though. Lolol. Like he asks questions about things the game literally told him about how they work and then is like, “how does this work???” Still gives the best content!!
Every video I have to calm my frustration. He does this all the time. I think its because it's difficult to split your attention between narrating and playing.
@@hal900x The fact that a lot of "Let's Play" or first look content creators do this almost makes me think it is deliberate.
Kinda like those mobile game ads where the "player" in the ad makes really stupid decisions and you have those moments of frustration that make you wanna download it just to show you can do it right...
@@Jedi_Vigilante Nah, it's just that a lot of their focus is on talking to the audience so they have a tendency to miss things.
@@Jedi_Vigilante And I thought my paranoid side made this all up. Splat already mentioned the difficulty of multitasking through content creation. Still I wonder sometimes with the viewer engaging portion of this.
@@kalzekdor I get that, and I definitely understand. With Splatt I would even accept that more freely, because he is actually narrating as he plays in most cases.
A lot of other content creators do voice-over though. Meaning that they record their gameplay then talk over it during the editing process rather than recording their live speech while playing.
Seeing as "Fail ads" are a real thing, I can't help but think that some of the content creators try to use similar psychology deliberately to increase sales of the games they are showing off or at least drive greater participation in their channels.
This combat looks smooth and satisfying. Definitely on my radar after seeing this.
I'm kind of amazed at how fluid movement and combat looks. I feel like it's a super mobile, fast paced and fun experience. The aesthetics are also really fitting. Nice.
Except for that grappling hook animation.
I like that they slide instead of rolling, looks much cooler
The graphics are giving me huge dragon dogma vibes, in a good way
This looks like a lot of fun. NGL, the ability to transform into a raven to fly around sent it over the top for me.
I am REALLY glad you mentioned the email registration at the beginning. I just added this to my wishlist the other day because it looked interesting but yes, that is a deal-breaker for me. Appreciate the heads-up, Splatt.
Yeah, same here. It's disappointing.
Agreed. It's a deal breaker for me too
Why?
@@gearsofwii42069 Because many people understand privacy, involuntary monetization of your private info and the threats of social engineering.
@@hektoerdonovan2121 Wouldn't you just use a throwaway email, if privacy concerns you?
This is the first video i see from you, and i really like the goofy funny way you talk about the game and things that happen, like "You dudes want to make with the battles", like that's good. Keep up the good videos and the way you talk while playing, you got a subscriber and i tick the bell for all you notices.
You went from a Surge reference straight into a Troy reference.
Well done.
this looks pretty good, the flying and transition are neat, the gfx look nice enuff without being too shiny and fake, this is my kind of action rpg where u can pretty much run around wherever u want just a shame its only on pc by the looks of it, cheers for the vid tho it was well worth watching
Honestly dipped the moment it was said you have to give them your email to play. so tired of companies desperately grabbing at as much personal info as they can get. As he said, "Im already signed into steam"
"I don't know what that says about me--we have empowering fragments."
Pretty much sums it up, Splat.
So, historically interrested nordic country dweller here: "Utlagi" is simply old norse for "Outlaw". Which just goes to show that old Norse had a bigger influence on modern english than most people nowadays would think. The Normandy region of France is named such since that's one of the places outside the nordic lands that the Nordmandi (Northmen) settled.
Our studio is in Stockholm, Sweden and Ravenbound is heavily inspired by Scandinavian folklore. We wanted to build a world full of the folklore and fairytales we read about as kids.
@@SystemicReaction And I did not in any way, shape or form try to rag on you for "simply translating stuff to old Norse" but was rather offering an explanation to the content creator as he doesn't have the same nordic background as you or I do.
On the contrary, I very much enjoyed the demo myself and welcome the rather deep dive into Norse lore.
Holy shit how are those animation so nice and solid. this looks so fun just from the animations.
In every 3D game I ever played, space is jump.
“If only there were a way to see fragments after they fell”
Yeah, like maybe some sort of raven vision maybe? 😂
Surge.. finally someone else who knew of its majestic wonder
I was intrigued by the game, but I wasn't going to create an account with them just to play a demo. I'm glad you played it, so I don't have to.
You are my new favorite youtuber as soon as you said Giants Tickets lmao
The general on foot movement and combat reminds me of Dragon's Dogma, which is a VERY GOOD THING. Too many games make you go slow as molasses and don't realize how it can hurt the overall momentum
Dragons Dogma is still my no1 of the best games I ever played, glad we are getting new one in future. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Yep, the overall aesthetic along with the movement styles also remind me of Dragon's Dogma. The exit from the tutorial cave onto the white marble(?) with the path to the right kinda reminds me of that area of Bitter Black Isle when you first step into that courtyard area with the stairs descending to the right. Glad that (from what I've read) Dragon's Dogma 2 is green lit and in development now. Supposed to be much larger than the first game since the lead dev said they wanted a lot more, but didn't have the time or budget for more than Gran Soren and its surroundings.
@@Adrian-L3x4 Dude I wonder if the mmo will come to the west one day. Still remember playing it with VPN, I was like "this is mmo combat???"
@@SnowTerebi I remember seeing it once online after I played Dragons dogma on ps3 and was like “wtf, there is second game” and never played it just waiting till I lost hope tbh. But now after success of MH franchise Capcom can finally budget second game 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻. Can’t wait tbh
Yes, too many games wanting to be like Dark Souls.
I didn't try this because it wanted me to make account. Thanks for trying it for us!
Ooo getting beloved Amalur vibes from my XB 360 days. My wishlist runneth over!
Splats inability to follow instructions is that of legend.
Great shirt "ooo viking ghost...neat!"
Looks good, hopefully works well on the Steam Deck.
Looks cool. Thanks for sharing, brah!!!!
Thanks for showcasing! ^^
At first I thought I would find the sliding dodge silly, but it's not implemented half bad.
Embrace the Raven!! Good looking game, very dragons dogma, hopefully it gets fleshed out well.
Did look at that, but creating an account with the developer just to play the demo is a hard no.
But great video, as usual.
Yeah. It feels like this is part demo, part data harvesting. That was enough to make me move on.
I really love the detail, that the equipment changes visualy with every upgrade! 😮
Never thought I would hear a Black Flag reference in your videos.. nice
This looks pretty good, not a fan of a forced sign up though.
Great video as always.
thanks for covering this, might buy it if they get rid of the need to sign in to an extra account. looks good, but not worth getting more spam for.
Surge was indeed the best carbonated beverage! Most humans, sadly, can not easily come to grips with pop perfection. It was good warm, but with ice or otherwise very cold; it was transcendental.
I love this guys commentary lmfao
Low stance movement 10/10 I would have legs shaking in 3 seconds
looks like a fun game for a weekend
Fasttravel by flying as a bird is genius
Splat: *Looking For Mana cards*
Also Splat: *Ignores all the chests in the camps he's cleared which have a chance to contain mana cards*
youtubers pretend to be dumb to harvest comments to increase engagement, don't engage
@@doltBmB I'm blaming TH-cam, that's stupid
Sometimes I feel like I'm watching Jake Peralta play games; I love it. :D
This looks like a really good Skyrim mod list. And I don't mean that negatively
"Alright so the ankles... have been broken"
I fucking died 😂😂😂
Spacebar is usually jump, and ctrl or alt is dodge.
The jumpy bois reminded me of the Witcher 3 and one of the goblin looking enemys
The problem with Avalanche is they hide tons of content behind the micro transaction paywall.
And the Apex engine makes Generation Zero look and feel so great too! Same engine as Call of the Wild.
Does anyone Remember the game Severance - Blade of Darkness. This game made me think of it a little bit. The combat on Blade of Darkness was amazing and ahead of its time in my oppinion. If they could do that again with updated graphics and physics.. I think it would be amazing.
Perked my interested looked up the game. The game look amazing for its time. Can't wait to get it when it's on sale. Thanks!
@@goldman77700 I recall trying it again a couple years back and it holds up not bad but feels old now. That's why I want a new game in this same style with todays game engines.
@chronicposer Aye, games over two decades as tend to do even the good ones. It got re-released twice the last 2 years on Steam and Switch and has been hit with younger fans, especially the souls community. So maybe there's hope.
Splatt still the master of comedy commentary!
Avalanche studios did a great Mad Max game and they did work with ID on Rage 2.
Reading from the text box that was literally visible at the time you said "I don't know what a Reliquary does" - "the power of the relics .. could be enhanced tenfold through proper use. Buy a reliquary, place whatever you wish inside, and see the same power return."
Seriously Splatty, your powers of observation (or lack of) are legendary.
Additional mandatory account with always online required for an EXCLUSIVELY single player game was a deal breaker for me.
"I'm here to smash!" - Quote: Splat, 2023 🤣🤣
i agree with raven whenever u want outside of combat
you're killing me today with these jokes
This look like hardcore zelda. Legend of Link
+1 for Black Flag reference :)
Reliquary: unlocked slot for an additional relic.
That's a breaker for me. Will still watch the vid though.
Looks lika a fun game !
Oh man, was almost screaming at you Splat to open chests 😂😂😂
Seems like when you get hit, you have the opportunity to win the chunk of health back by hitting enemies, and not doing so makes that part drain away properly over a short time.
I've had this game on "ignored" for awhile now - apparently for good reason.
looks pretty cool. that card based leveling looks fun. but it's also got the "stuff in a landscape (with trees)" vibe that a lot of open worlds have.
It's kind of tough for an open worlds to not be some variation of "stuff in a landscape (possibly with trees)" because that's what an open world tends to look like if it has stuff and/or trees in it and you can traverse it.
There are some outliers (you could imagine some sort of cyberpunk net-world, for example, and open world spaceship games do exist and go more for "stuff floating in space (with rocks) instead), but the only other option in a fantasy setting would be something like the Underdark from DnD or a game set in some massive magical medieval metropolis?
Though, to be fair, it does get a bit repetitive if you play a lot of them.
Having played the demo - the world is incredibly dead. There's very little to actually see or do outside small combat encounters. Honestly, it's pretty bizarre there even is an open world. Added nothing but a commute to the demo.
@@AndragonLea Yeah agreed. It's not an easy problem to solve. And I think that the technology is to blame: It's just very easy to create these landscapes in the common game engines. What's the hard work is to create specific, memorable locations. Elden Ring excells at this. Cyberpunk 2077 does it okay but fails to utilize it by not placing the content in the open world but rather by mostly restricting it to isolated boxes with a repetetive design.
@@grrr_lef Yeah, games with a distinctive art style do better in general.
The game told you to get Mana from chests Splat. Classic Splat for sure LOL
Hope on it's way to consoles soon!
Me showing up at the island of a thousand fallen " make that a thousand and one " lol
Keybind was my major gripe with the game as well. I rebound it to Space=dodge, alt=jump, shift=sprint. C to block still feel wrong but... eh, the demo was just 1h long so, I used dodge most of the time anyway.
I personally didn't really like the infinite spamming dodge. Block has a sort of "HP" but dodge is just an infinite amount. I'm not a fanatic of souls-like games but there should be some limitation, like X number of dodges that slowly recharge or something like that.
Video dropped an hour ago. 51 minutes long. 12k views...what? Splat, you are my hero.
He has a very regular video uploading schedule. So many of us are usually waiting for the video to come out. But yeah, huge audience.
Some things remind me of the closed Bless Unleashed and that's a good thing for me!
Not all them drop fragments it tells u that in the tutorial . It's a tier system and ones of certain tiers have them
Hmm several interesting Wörds in this game. Lessgå!
You could have also used the foresight to draw one of the mana cards I believe.
I downloaded this game and then uninstalled when it required I create an account for some company I've never heard of. It was also like 60gb.
I was looking forward to buy this game but hearing that you need to make an account to play this game i'm like nah brah i am good. Going to spend my money somewhere else.
Played a bit the other day it was pretty fun , definitely interested in playing more, sucks the demo is like timed thing u get like a hour or so
That first grievance is quite grievous. Having to "Sign In" like an MMO, for a single player game? Is this also always online too? :/ And there's a demo timer once you get into the world.
Looking at Systemic Reaction™'s past projects, their latest project Second Extinction is apparently a data parasite according to the first negative Steam review I came across. I'm assuming this game does the same (that's why you have to sign in I'm guessing and the always-online requirement?)
With those negative gripes aside, the art design is striking, the gameplay borrows a lot from games (AC: Valhalla, Dark Souls, Rogue-card-likes) and seems to put it together well, I hope character customization is in the full release.
Being a data parasite gives them money, allowing them to make a better game so I'm fine with it
@@Yoni123 It's not good when the game also want you to pay 24 € to play it.
@@Yoni123 First of all, it's not a free game, so the data collection is an obscure second payment method. Second, you're giving them your data for free, in exchange for nothing. Third, there's a reason why the term "parasite" has a direct offensive meaning and is not an euphemism.
@@ttsymphonyg It's extra income for them to keep developing
@@Yoni123 Then ask for data. It's not that difficult, is it?
Strong Dragons Dogma vibes from the tutorial.
The hurricane like rain could be toned down a little.
I love the fluidity of the movement. I do agree the grapple hook is kinda jank but hey a demo it is.
Archeologists in the distant future will never find an intact pot thanks to video games. We've been trained too well to break everything!
the heroes cannot swim bit...
dude, you cannot be that funny - I choked on my breakfast. 😂
34:58 reliquary: space im your inventory
So many of these games. Dunno why. Have fun, I guess.
"Consume their bodies for more Magic the Gathering" 😂😂
Great looking skating simulator...
DRM is always a deal breaker.
nooooooo i was late guys. 4th.
I'd like to thank my family and friends for supporting me and believing in me. this is not the end. i will try again in the nest video.
It says what the reliquary does 34:59 if you read the dialogue of the shopkeeper.
Yeah, you could see it opened an additional relic slot in his inventory if you looked close.
Yeah, I will make an effort to ignore all the story text that a game as boring as this force feeds me. So I would never have noticed it either.
To be fair, though, it doesn't give the straight up info "Unlocks a relic slot in your inventory" but rather serves you that information in riddle form.
I for one love that way of doing it as it connects deeper into the world building but as anyone who follows Splattercat knows, he does NOT read stuff in games very thoroughly. So much that it's more or less an inside meta joke at this point.
The timeline watch on this is extremely weird. It's perfectly flat except at one moment with a perfect dip on either side of the "most replayed" crest. It's like, strangely perfect. I know Splat has real viewers but this is like clearly some weird kind of bot behavior type thing.
Second View, Keep up the great work. I try to watch ever video you put out. Saves me from testing them. And just try out the ones I like.
generation zero i bought is so fun weird game but same time fun stuff
This video is the equivalent of the president in the Simpsons saying, "I was elected to lead, not to read." Hope Splat never changes! lol
20:26 Of course those are difficult, they're "Tough tiers"
Splatt, I appreciate you bringing up the account registration requirement and always online but. That's a hard no for me. Great video as always, though!
Looks like a good game with a lot of chance to gro and improve.
Saddly the email thing is a big deal breaker for me, so thanks Splat for pointing that out, it saves me a lot of trouble.
