Man, now I really want a game where you play as a lone Necron guardian holding off wakes of different enemies whilst the rest of your tomb world slowly wakes up.
I desperately want this
@@balbibou They would probably end up suing me lol
The bit about you dying in the first room had me in tears 😂
To be fair, It didn't surprise me.
@@alreadyded3709 classic splatt
“Take that mom, i told you’d i achieve things lol”
Don't worry, bestiary is pronounced bestiary, and not bestiary. Depending on your local accent it can also be pronounced as bestiary, or rarely bestiary, but never bestiary. 😁
So very helpful, thanks for the elucidating commentary
@@michaelsorensen7567 What can I say, I was born with the gift of moderately worthless assistance 😂
I feel dumb. I thought it was spelled (and pronounced) beastiary and didn't realize until I googled it after watching this video.
Seems like something Statler would write.
I never understood why a compendium of BEASTS would be called a BEST-iary. Nobody wants to deal with beasts, so nobody would ever qualify them as the "best". The name makes zero sense. We should invent time travel specifically for the purpose of going back in time and slapping the shit out of the assholes who made our language wrong.
Enjoying that epic voice work and the artwork colour scheme is great too.
Excellent gameplay, great video and thanks for sharing the amazing content👍👍
The art style made me think of the Necromongers aesthetic from Chronicles of Riddick
21:13 Pretty sure it's that little floaty orange ball in the middle of that pit thing.
Clean attack sizes, nice red glowies on the enemy danger gubbins, smooth movements. Looks a lot better than I was expecting. Hope there’s more weapons n combos. General lighting is a bit too dark for my tastes and the enemy numbers seem a bit low with some emphasis on pre-dodge once you know the attack patterns.
Thanks for the vid! Found a new game I'm sure I'm going to love, thanks!
keep up the good grind brother!!!....you are the ONLY You Tuber/Twitch Streamer I watch every day
Game looks pretty neat. Good shit splatty!
Having read more words than you've heard is so much better than having heard more words than you've read.
Repeatedly returning to a task until you've mastered it is a pretty iconically Japanese way to approach game design.
That’s literally any roguelite as well - a pretty iconically western way to approach game design
Looks really cool. Art style reminds me of the second Riddick movie.
As a slightly OCD person when it comes to absolutely picking up every pieces of loot/shinies and interactable items, I think this game needs a bit better highlight of them, looks like you already missed a few things, e.g. at around 19:40 is that a yellow XP globe in the middle of the circle pit, and at 23:59 there is an interactable console/podium at the lower left hand corner... 😅
Yeah, the "secret" he couldn't find because it was hidden in plain sight. 😆
Yeah... jars in the south corner at 5:16, and those same jars after circling back at 6:00. And then others in a similar spot at 10:36.
@@ezequielblanco8659 LOL, glad to know I'm not the only one.
I've been playing it a lot since it came out, it's so freaking good.
Idk if it's just me but the POV is too high. It would be acceptable if you could at least rotate it, but I think it's fixed. Nevertheless, great concept and artwork, and neat UI.
I did not realise how much I wanted a Necron ARPG until you started talking about it. And now I'm sad there isn't one.
The narration reminded me of "Excision, Downlink, Space Laces - Raise Your Fist"
This looks like a straightforward good game, no detour, no bullshit
2:15 First thoughts when I loaded it up "Huh, so, basically this is a Necron simulator. Great. *PURGE THE LIFE CREATE THE SILENCE*"
That voice in the beginning reminds me of the precursor statues from Jak and Dexter 2 and 3.
2:09 I am going out on a limb and say they _wanted_ to get a Warhammer License for Necrons+Mechanicus, but realized to late it would be too expensive. So they quickly re-skinned the thing.
There are things that could easily have been Servitors, Servitors with destroyed hips, Kastellan Robots, etc.
Great looking game!
This game looks incredibly good
Woh, that boss fight around minute 26 looks really hard and reminds me of games I had to quit and admit defeat (i.e. Eldest Souls). Looks beautiful and well done though.
fifth element vibes from art/voice style with some Bioshock thrown in
The voice over in the intro reminds me of the alien from bluebooks or something like this from the 60s
You went full Bostonian man you never go full Bostonian.
"Health Meeta"
Seriously though looks awesome thanks!
I wonder if their art style and voice work was inspired by the guardian aliens from The Fifth Element?
It's art deco with vorticist influences, that's the source style. It's one of the biggest art moments of 20th centuries. Pretty sure nobody needed to watch a sci-fi movie to be inspired by it.
That’s the first thing I thought as well. The opening of the game was kind of like the movie. I disagree with the other guy.
Bootiful game
My TTRPG group laughed at me for pronouncing bestiary a certain way but I always raised an eyebrow at it. Your comment inspired me to look up the pronunciation and it turns out I've been right the whole time.
They would also drop the N when pronouncing "necromancy" so I should've known better.
What do you mean they dropped the N? Like Ecromancer? Was this a table of non-english speakers.
@gamer_time - dropping the last N, as in 'NecroMACY'
@@Stalazon that's also crazy. Definitely esl. Glad you were eventually able to prove yourself correct.
They now give echievements for mayor underachieving :D
Looks good
Nice
Reminds me a lot of the Chozo architecture in Dread, especially the areas where you find Quiet Robe and first encounter X. Looks really nice, even if it's not my kind of game whatsoever :D
Are the same guys that are making Deflector? The camera, the player movements (the dash in particular) and the isometric view are really similar.
Game looks pretty cool.
Just a suggestion: the game sounds could be a little louder. There were times that I wasn't even sure that the game had sounds.
Kind of reminds of the Necromongers from Riddick, just a little bit.
Same here with the words, Splatt. I read a lot.
Killing gods you say? *slides over to the chair next to the game* mmmmmmmmgo ooooooon!
I've always thought it was best-ee-airy because beast-ee-airy would make too much sense...
Wasn't there mention of a ranged attack? Don't think I saw Splat use it once. Unless that was the "stun spear".
There was, splat's classic old man brain just forgot, classic splat lol
The art remeinds me a bit of Stargate SG1 the Goa'ulds maybe. Like Spacy hich tech old fashion egyptian.
LOL, the minute I saw the staff I thought Steampunk Necron.
So much Warhammer!! Love it.. thank you
Very out of context. Have you received or sent correspondences to Retromation to try a co-op or competitive game? I really like the two of you and the reverberating wholesomeness and survival knowledge would make a great two part two channel (or more) set of videos.
Kind of reminds me of the Dwemer from Skyrim a bit
Achievement for dying in the first room; sounds like me in Risen. I got an achievement for falling off cliffs so much.😑
"Fla-maise" 😂
looks awesome
Graphically it's beautiful, but then I'm a total sucker for all things Art Deco.
🖤
Necron mondoshawan are interesting
Envairement feels like path of exile
feel like this game has potential if it had more than just basic weapon. where is the wizardry or mechanical weapons. the electrical storm or the overhead third arm laser beams
I really wish it had random level / quest generation. otherwise I like the mix of souls-like and ARPG gameplay, normal ARPGs are just number grinders and seem to cater to speed-running style (POE for example)
Yeah that's why I've always bounced off ARPGs, they play like spreadsheets to me.
@@Jesse__H exactly! Wolcen was seeming to head that way early on, but it ends up leaning too heavy in that direction as well, and not enough in the lethal combat with intricate mechanics. One of the best ARPGs I've actually played is by a small indie called DINs Legacy, the way the character classes merge off each other in a weird dynasty like system is really neat, and the world actually reacts to the player, and when you save it or fail, Din pops by, rewards you if you deserve it and takes you to another world to try and fix his mess there next. Sadly the graphics are pretty dated, but the gameplay is still one of my favorite compared to what is available.
@@LumberingTroll Oh, the same studio that did the Drox Operative games. Interesting.
14:50... i-saw-metry?? :D
Splat's Condensed Review: 33:16
👍
Yeah putting the golden root in the flask in elden ring was the best
I don't think this is an isometric camera. It's a perspective camera. Just with a very high angle.
nice
At least you didn't die in character creation like in Torment: Tides of Numenera. xD
The comment about the word bestiary reminds me of speaking the word "lineage" in voice chat once and getting corrected. The guy didn't know anything but was very sure of himself and that it's spoken like "line" and "age" combined. In the end I was right in how I pronounced it, even though I never spoke this word before (not a native English speaker) and he was wrong.
What do we learn out of this? Don't believe people just because they are very sure of themselves. Here we call them Klugscheißer. xD
Metropolis meets system shock
I love the art, but suck so bad at soulslike games that I'll never play this.
"Golden balls of experience", testicles of glory... in Japanese, 'kintama' (golden balls) is a slang expression for testicles.
... the things I learn, having a wife from Japan.
Man, too bad they threw in dark souls mechanics, other wise this might be a fun looking isometric action RPG.
conclusion thoughts 33:17
looks reminiscent of the fifth element in the art design
its pronounced like Best Cherry.
"I'm the sort of fastidious player who..." ignores the obvious 'secret' xp ball, apparently.
Edit: "I'm going to be evasive, if you know what I mean." -immediately steps in death puddle losing half of remaining health.
As one does
BEE-stiary
Once you get past the first boss, the game falls apart, and a tip for the first boss,just hit and run, and use range to keep your dodge meter full.
Bad game after the first boss?
@@GameTimeWhy yeah, after u kill that 3 tailed dog, it's pretty much the same thing with just some diffrent room design, main problem being that the enemies will start appearing in larger numbers with combinations of range and melee all at the same time in small corridors and more health, and most of the so called skills that we can get for the sword are pretty lame, except the first one which creates a circle on the ground that negates enemy range attack.
Dying in the first room takes skill... 🤣🤣
11:24 Joe Biden shoutout
Weird that in order to heal you have to break pots... Sigh
Is it Steam Deck compatible?
looks pretty but also very empty
Splat it's
US best-iary (short i)
UK best-iary OR beast-iary
Most readers know that feeling , how the H do I pronounce x word
If Splattercat hates reclearing content then why does he play roguelikes?
same with soulslikes. i killed it, it should stay dead. unless i hit some milestone or something
Speaking of words you've been pronouncing incorrectly... "Riposte" is pronounced "re-post"
And alt is short for alternate, not altimeter.
.....why are you so blind sometimes splatttttt...... @20min, you missed a GIANT YELLOW ORB!
I LOATHE the "souls" style game design in-general, but like the art style.
Get good.
Something about the fixed camera at that angle really irks me.
Bestiary (behsteeuhree), from bestiarium vocabulum (behsteerareeoom vokaabuulum), is a compendium of beasts. For reference, if in doubt of pronunciation, go back to the Latin, which is pronounced like German, which is pronounced like WYSIWYG (if you know your German ABC's, which you should).
And I swear if some ecclesiastical Latin speaking proletariat comes along and says 'nuh uh, it's pronounced like Italian', it was, in the middle ages, a thousand years after pure beautiful Latin was butchered by illiterate monks with STDs.
Not a standout game on any level imo
fifth
Extremely empty looking game with rather weird player charater to screen size ratio. Looks super off.
Hades clone but very interesting art style
no weapons at all or gear. Just few attacks and 1 range skill. Not worth shit even after cracking it I uninstalled it
just downloaded
this view isnt good.
Nice
