    So this video has gotten a lot of attention and I'm so thankful to everyone who has watched and commented on it. I had been away from TH-cam for a while, but the response to this essay has told me that there's something here. I can't tell you how much that means to me. I'll try my best to show it by making even better videos in the future and will soon take time out to sit down and reply to as many of these comments as I can. In short: thank you, I can't believe that this happened, and I'm so excited to do things I hope you will enjoy in the future.

      I remember I had to stop playing it because this exact dynamic generated multiple glitches and dead ends. In order to proceed in the storyline, sometimes you needed objects from previous chapters that becomes unavailable, bringing the gameplay to a sudden halt.
      Beside that I remember it as a great adventure game

      Interesting. I remember getting stuck in this game. Checking every area over and over going crazy with what I was missing. Eventually I gave up but always assumed I screwed up somewhere.

    • @Biouke
      @Biouke ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep the thing is a lot of event triggers and animations are dependent on CPU clock and just bug on modern hardware, hence the GoG version being a life saver. I remember playing this game around 2004 and most events would bug until I used an external program to limit my CPU clock speed at 60% of its normal capacity. The thing is the events skip but the game doesn't crash so if you're not aware of this problem it just seems like you missed something and got stuck.

    I kept holding out for THE NOVEL AND THE POLICE, but perhaps another time :) By the end of the video, I also kept thinking OMICRON would have been a nice conversation piece to go along with your discussion of Blade Runner. Cage is trying to get at a similar experience, feeling, etc. as the one you describe in Blade Runner, and you can see him wrestling with & against "video games" as a medium through subsequent installments in what must be called the David Cage omniverse. Anywho, I'm just rambling. Enjoyed the video!

    @MikkelKjrJensen ปีที่แล้ว +7

    My advice is to always read the manual for any video game that was released before 2000. First of all they usually had manuals, and secondly they either didn't have tutorials, or they weren't good enough to fully explain all their systems. There are exceptions, but I feel this is one place where modern games beat old games hand down - not only are the in-game tutorials often better, but the games often nudge you towards what you should be doing.

      Not realy, if there is one thing I really dislike in modern games it is all the hand holding, tutorial levels that go on for ages with minimal input talking about stuff that is either not important or we all know anyway as we have been playing games since the eighties. Give me the "let's just go explore, try stuff and figure it out" approach any day.

    • @ColedOne
      @ColedOne  ปีที่แล้ว

      Fair point! If I hadn't read the manual, the dialogue system would have been completely perplexing and definitely hampered the enjoyment of the game. It's a fine line in modern games. I think something that briskly walks you through the basics can be excellent (like Alpha Protocol) while something that beats you about with systems early on turns into a miasma of button prompts (like, and I know this could upset some, the Arkham games).

      I agree! I think after playing Detroit: Become Human that the Quantic Dream tech could be a great match for the Blade Runner IP. Though I'd definitely prefer someone or group outside of their studio to do the writing. I think Cage's directorial style is kind of heavy-handed even at the best of times and it'd be easy to lose sight of what makes that universe so great if he or one of his crew were at the narrative wheel. Even said, I'll still be picking up their Star Wars game day one and hoping for that unique QD insanity!

      Quantic Dream could do a good BladeRunner game if they wanted to, or had the rights. I'm quite sure of it. Speaking of which... Where are those guys? I haven't heard so much a peep from them since before Detroit came out. And that was years ago now :/

    • @ColedOne
      @ColedOne  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm hoping that Quantic Dream's Star Wars game they're cooking will be a good time. I find their writing to be a bit too direct to the point of borderline parody. Someone else mentioned this in another comment as well, which got me thinking how great it would be if their tech/engine could be utilized by a different narrative team.

      @@ColedOne Yeah also agree with that, but I'm not sure a dev team springs to mind who does nuanced writing I'd enjoy, CDPRs is pretty eyeroll at times also. Always found Valves writing to be elite, portal 2 springs to mind, but I'd take anything at this point in the BR universe

    I played this game back when it came out!
    I remember a couple things... I remember that I really enjoyed it.
    ...And I remember this:
    "Give me a hard copy of that..."
    I heard it so many times, It's still stuck in my head!
    It was kinda like, "Whadya buyin'?"
    From RE4. Lol...
    I played a bunch of those pc games back then. One I relly liked was "The Ripper."
    A 7 cd game about a modern Jack the Ripper. It took me a long time just to get the sound to work, but once I did, it waa great!
    'Frankenstein,' staring Tim Curry was good, & I loved 'Harvester' too!
    I miss those old games, I must've played dozens of them. I'm still looking for a game called, "Chronomaster," it was fun, funny, & really different. I haven't seen it anywhere for decades. So if you come across that game, maybe you can do a vid for it!? 🤘🤪
    It would be amazing!

    • @ColedOne
      @ColedOne  ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @mojoriot2293
      @mojoriot2293 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Coled One Frankenstein is great!
      The acting is a bit over the top, but that's normal for that era, & normal for Tim Curry in any era, lol. But the puzzles are great, & it's an interesting place to explore.
      Thanks for reading my long comment, I get a bit long-winded when talking about older games. 🤘😁
      ...Btw, if you like some math with your puzzles, the game "RAMA" was pretty good too! The puzzles had me using a pad of paper & a pencil to figure them out.
      But if you haven't played "HARVESTER,"
      I'd suggest playing that one NOW!
      It's a mind-f#%&!!!
      Ok, I'm ending this before I start blabbering about more games. 🤘🤪 Keep up the great retro game videos!!!

      Definitely. I think the blockiness of this release and the enhanced edition is a consequence of how it was reverse-engineered by fans who wanted it to be playable in the modern day. It's an unfortunate side effect, but well worth it to be able to play.

    Old games don’t suck or aren’t worse than today’s game, given the available tech. I just admit to being spoiled by modern gaming. I can’t play games older than me, unless I played them growing and have the nostalgia to keep me playing. Almost like they gotta be grandfathered in
