6:15 "Maybe they should add a greater goal to the game" Easy: Gather enough money to buy 4 jetpacks, then all of you go flying together into the sunset. Or into the mouth of a forest giant.
I mean, if they want a "greater goal" get invested in the indie horror lore, there's usually some great big scheme that must be foiled. Like FNaF, SCP, etc.
@@satratic127 Eh really? I'd say the different endings of CB are greater goals. The basic goal is just escape, then greater you can choose. As for SL, you have the different win scenarios.
I think the dev needs to add, "Harvest" missions where you are tasked with "Harvesting" a murderous alien prior to missions. The alien would eat one of the team in return for the person being eaten being absent in the next mission. Instead of 5 $ you would get 250$ ensured.
i peer pressured my friend to stand on a mine to see if they were realistic or not they were realistic (it blows up when you step off, so as long as you stay still ur fine) but then one of my other friends hit him with a yield sign and they both got blown up
I want to stand on a mine far away from my friends and say “hey guys what’s that beeping sound?” Then they tell me to stand there and I step off so I they hear a muffled scream and explosion
The lack of a goal is why this game is so fun, its the reason you can walk up to two guys with one explaining how landmines work, then stepping on the land mine killing all three of you then laughing like mad rather than being pissed cause the greater goal is now unobtainable when every run is already doomed to fail from the get-go.
I can understand the whole solo-player, no friend type deal. But I gotta be honest, I went into a lobby once, with chinese players, I don't speak a word of it but we ALL understood each other by moving around and general knowledge, we saw nutcracker, we all went back and get zap-gun and shovels and killed it, not a single word said, ofc it wasn't anything like playing with a 4-man friend group but it was such a chill and tranguil experience. This game can transcend speech xD.
@@commandercorl1544 I'm pretty sure that's what happened as well, I think he tried warning about a Masked and monsters inside, crouched up and down, shake his mouse and all that to warn me xD. When we heard a nutcracker, we looked at each other and bolted straight to the exit to grab equipments

I think there being "No goal" is really the only valid complaint that I would agree with. Like, you use Minecraft and Slime Rancher as examples of games that you can play endlessly, and that's completely true, but you've completely ignored the fact that BOTH of those games have an "ending" or "end goal" that you can achieve if you choose to do so. I know Lethal Company has stuff planned and in the works, so in a way it's not really an issue as the game simply isn't finished. But story wise, personally I hope that there WILL be a way to "save" yourself and your crew to achieve some sort of ending if you want to not play endlessly - especially since you _can't_ play endlessly. At some point the quota gets to high it's impossible to continue on. I don't think you're _supposed_ to keep playing.
Also, there are many ways to progress in minecraft and many more to play. Really, minecraft should've never been brought up because they have nothing in common. But bringing its cousin phasmophobia up wouldnt have done anything because it has the same problem. The game isnt for everyone, but that isnt brought up. Not everyone enjoys this style of game and not adressing that seems to me like cherry picking.
Theres a drill under the co.pany building that looks like it can be powered with apparatuses. Im assuming those are going to end up being the "greater goal" once that gets fleshed out.
On top of "no end goal", I think another valid complaint is that it needs some more tilesets. The "industrial" stuff gets kind of samey after a while, so the mansion tileset is a breath of fresh air. Maybe stuff like laboratories or a big botanical research station would be great. I'd also recommend a randomly spawning charging station - maube with a limited number of charges. It's a great game, though, and even with randoms it can be loads of fun.
Right, the possibilities are endless, I also had a peeve with the costs to go to the harder moons too, they need to be cheaper or no cost at all, what with the difficulty spike.
Considering how early on it is, I don't doubt we'll get more interior layouts in the future. What I think would be cool is if there was a non with *two* different interiors, basically double the loot but you have to risk splitting up between buildings to get the most out of it
People seem to forget this is an early access game too... the amount of hours of enjoyment you can get out of it are insane considering there's still many updates to come
6:20 it looks like they might be planning something in the future for a goal to work towards. There is a little secret somewhere that looks like it wants you to collect items though it doesn't appear to work just yet.
agreed ive speculated with a friend of mine that its a way of breaking down the wall at the company building to find out whats up with the company. im also fairly certain its connected to the apparatus because its the only item thats got questionmarks upon first scanning it and second of all its the only item that is found in a special room(generator room) also the 2 slots on the secret look exactly like the generators where you take the apparatus out of so maybe the company will be the final dungeon with the players blowing up a way inside but first you need 2 apparatus before to access?
@@SomeDude420 Yeah I believe so as well. Along with some other items like something to serve as a plunger and some other bits to slot into the other spots.
@@SomeDude420 if the company will be a endgame dungeon, i would like to think that you should be able to keep a shotgun or two with you so you can enter it with that! (wouldnt doubt that the place would have a uniqe monster or two that would be hard to deal with even with a shotgun!)
I have heard someone say that you need to collect "Apparatus" for that. Weirdly, even though that item has a price when selling, it only display ??? when scanning.
the inverse teleporter straight into a springhead is almost as funny as my 4th time using inverse teleporter spawning ontop of a mine, not looking down and blowing up game has sick sense of humor, at times mines under the fire exit, bracken camping the fire exit, little girl spawning outside right as the ship lands
@@dinoaurus1 The inverse teleporter, while dropping your items, does speed up time to get into the building which helps at harder planets because I believe I heard no real monsters spawn until like 10am or sometime but even if that is wrong earlier on the monsters aren't as numerous and its relatively safe. Besides the situations that can unfold are usually always funny.
@@lordfoogthe2st789 i cant imagine not having a flashlight being practical at all, especially when dropped off into a random spot so you dont know the way out
I loved it. even though I'm starting to wind away to other games, I still spent 50 hours in it for $10. What a deal. No obnoxiously convoluted mechanics designed to confuse and/or artificially extend your playtime.
Yes, I love how there are very minimal gaps between actual gameplay. The longest you're gonna be waiting for action is waiting for item delivery, then you jump straight onto a planet. Not a walking simulator either
Spent 1700 hours in TF2 before using 5€ to get premium (Now at 3050 hours ,but I don't play during the colder half of the year for some reasons ,too lazy to go sit on my chair to play + my backpain whenever I sit for too long (Like just 1 hour is enough to get the pain))
Ive noticed that only about 20% of negative reviews are actually valid. The rest is just people unhappy about how the game is, because they dont know what they need to do, or expected the game to be a tripe A game or something. It's the most refreshing gaming experience I've had in 3 years
Most of the people that hate on this game have either not played it more than maybe 15 to 30 minutes, or just don't have any friends. I don't say that in a meme-ish "ha ha, look at the no friend loser." kind of way, I'm saying this in more of a "This game genuinely is better with other people." kind of way. The amount of gut busting laughter you can experience seeing one of your friends get fucked over by a monster, jump off a catwalk into a pit of death on accident, or die on the ship while you spectate them to a dog creeping up to them while they flip switch to take off to fleeting safety only to have the monstrosity jaw fuck them into a VIP full access pass to the gates of heaven- yeah, it's fucking hilarious. The people who can't experience this are of course going to get bored pretty quickly when they have no one to make said experiences with, and that is genuinely sad.
100% agree. Most reviews in my language that ive read were a bunch of clueless people who hopped in solo with no idea what to do, died and whined the game sucked
To be fair there is PLENTY of stuff to criticize the game on. THe graphics are terrible, beyond 'art style' terrible. Like "its hard to read the readout on the terminal" bad, where HDLethal Company mod is mandatory if you have a half decent monitor. The server browser is sophmore-in-college grade, no sorting by player count. No sorting by best connection, no server history to see recent players. You join a public lobby and the host says hes going to restart it? Sucks for you its a pain to find the lobby again. Then you can criticize monster-player interaction. Aggro an eyeless dog? Well its perma-aggro'd on the last area it heard you, if thats by the ship entrance, it camps it the rest of the game. Aggro'd a giant? It will follow you forever. If it follows you to the ship, it camps the entrance.
@@skylarc6063 Pretty sure you can flash giants. Also stun them. Also giants are not bad as you should get a teleporter incase that stuff happens, you can tp as they are getting chased if no one can stun it. There's so many strats that you learn after some time played. I have around 40hrs now and can regularly get to well over 2500 quota with my friend as a 2man. As group of 4 it's even easier and you will usually have one in ship, two roaming and one grabbing loot back to ship. Even ghost girl can be made useless
I REALLY appreciate that they made the game $10. It makes it so I can buy a copy for me and a friend for the price of a normal game, or simply buy one for myself and play with strangers. It opens up alot of accessibility.
It's a genius choice, the game is clearly built around multiplayer with 4 players, and by having it be $10 you can buy it for your friends, equating to about $40-$50 total. I doubt this was intentional, as Zeeekers tends to set their games at abnormally low prices for the experience they offer, but it's food for thought
5:50 thats priceless, these moments are what I love in the game the unexpected and the modding community only make the game better, there are mods to add skins to what ever you want and you can add even more monsters if you wish.
I am partially deaf and can attest that you can actually see a lot better with and without a flashlight in this game then a lot of other games. It's only really a struggle if you have low vision, but glasses and using a flashie in game seem to work for most people. I would like audio queue indicators (what direction audio is coming from) in the future. I think its a really impressive game for it being indie. So much content and really well made Edit: I should preface that I rely on sight for playing most games due to my bad hearing. Especially directional
I totally agree, I've seen so many other games that fail in the lighting category, especially horror ones and to me not being able to see shit doesn't make it scary it's just annoying. This game is surprisingly fine even without the lantern which is really nice.
@@Arkanna96 yess i agree the darkness sucks so bad in most games, this one did it right: instead of everything being extremely dark but visible, its pretty light near you and dark and entirely inable to see far ahead of you making it still scary but easy to see without squinting your eyes hard
@@derpypotato677 Doesnt make it a criticism shield. Ive seen games stuck in early access for 10+ years and people using the "UHH ITS EARLY" as a shield. Its a valid criticism.
The main critique I agree with is no end goal, but to be fair the game is still in early access. I'm excited to see what the dev has planned for maybe a possible way for our crew to escape the loop of the companies ever-rising quota
there’s a hidden story in the game that basically goes, you get on the ship, explore multiple moons, come back, get back on the ship with no recollection of the past and do the same thing over and over again, feeding a tentacle monster that is a threat to the universe 😃
For a game that has no overarching goal, it's the first multiplayer game that I've actively enjoyed playing without having some other kind of incentive to keep logging in (battlepasses/special events). Most multiplayer games get old and I just use them to play with friends because the randoms in other games can be rough. This game has core gameplay that always makes me feel part of the team and I love it.
One thing about other multiplayer games is that they’re so aggressively competitive that it makes them not fun to play. This game however is way more cooperative which leads to whole lot less anger from both you and your friends. I think that also partially comes from not having an overarching goal so when you lose it’s more of a, “New PB! Cool!” Rather than a “How tf did you mess that up?!?!!!” (Obviously depends who you’re playing with)
I kinda like that the lack of an end goal leads to "We'll have to die anyway." It's purely about the process and terrible things happening along the way. Can't be mad for too long, when you kinda expect to lose, but have some laughs with your pals nonetheless.
it's almost like you don't need fomo incentives to hop on and play something if that something is actively engaging and fun lol only actual incentive we have atm is to goof off and have fun, and the game's really, really good at providing opportunities for such I sorta don't know if I'd prefer an endgame goal over more opportunities to mess around. on one hand, being able to end a run sounds neat and gives players something to actually play towards, however I think it would lend to people getting fussy about goofing off if that person would prefer to just rush the goal. I've met a lot of randoms in my lobbies, and they've universally just been chillin for a good time in a good game. I think the dynamic could change if a steady goal was actually set and I don't think I'd prefer it over continuation of monsters, moons and a bit more narrative.
Almost any game is fun with friends. It's just how it doubles down on the communication and it's random aspect is what makes it fun. It creates hilarious situations that a pro screenwriter can't imagine. That is this games strength.
I mean SMP servers for stuff lime Gmod an Minecraft have become full on Tabletop game worlds why is there so much lore for 7 Spanish fools with baller anime intros dafuk
Even though Zeekerss is a furry, why should we hate the game for that? Zeekerss has brought laughter and a game that we for sure have years of good content yet to experience. Even though I my self am not a fan of furries, to Zeekerss I’m sure we can all say bravo, BRAVO for such a hilariously thrilling game. Here guys I think Zeekerss dropped this 🏆
Zeekerss is overall a really good game, dev He has been making games for years upon years And good ones at that I'm not a furry, nor am I in the Fandom, but I could care less. A furry is just a genre of character design, it says nothing about the person
Yeah I could see how having almost no means to defend yourself with a weapon could be frustrating to some, but even if you did have some means to protect yourself, the game can still find ways to screw people over. I mean, on one run with friends, I didn't even take two steps into the facility when a bracken immediately snapped my neck without me even seeing him or anyone else being the wiser and I think it's that type of randomness in the maps and the creature spawns that adds to the games hilarity and entertainment value imo.
Hilarity of complete fucking horror, the Bracken does both fantastically, they either kill someone right in front of you hilariously or play an entire horror movie scene. I was playing with a friend, we were trying to find the exit, i went into a room ahead of him, got confused when he didn't follow me, only to turn around and see blood on the floor and his flashlight on the ground, no sound, nothing, and now I had to find my way out, alone, with a shitty flashlight, and that thing following me.
About the scaling - from what me and my friends noticed, there is actually one based on player count, but it doesn't affect the quota, it affects the amount of loot. We might be delusional about this, but we noticed how much the amount varies based on player count, especially if you have mods increasing the player count (items literally everywhere). I'm aware of the possibility that it might have been the mod affecting this, yet we still noticed a big difference between 2 and 4 players in vanilla. All that means is that even if you can find a way to carry enough loot solo, you simply might not get enough, making this game even less hospitable to solo players.
I really feel like the reverse should be true, less loot for more players. It's insanely easy to reach quotas with 4 players while with 1 or 2 it's an ENDEAVOR.
It enturely depends kn the map and weather. I played with 8 people and there is map there was 5 to 9 objects, then we got to the money-maker map and there was 21 objects. I scanned at every start of the day
Less loot for more players doesn’t make sense at all. You get in, split up, return with your two items each and you’re ready to leave at 11am after picking the moon clean. No, there absolutely should be more items when there are more players to carry them. HOWEVER, there should *also* be a value modifier that works in reverse. Baseline for 4 players, increases with less people so that they can reach the same quota with less scrap because it’s worth more.
I did not buy the game as I play solo but this last month has been fun watching people play on youtube. It is nice to see a indie game explode. It has a lot more potential to be even better.
All the people that put "game bad cause dev is furry" as a reason for their negative review need to understand that the dev's interests SHOULD NOT influence your opinion on the game. Separate your opinions of the creator from their creation. Also the "WAAAAAAA NO SEX!!!!!!!!!!" negative reviews are so unfunny, unoriginal, and unhelpful. Yea, I am overreacting to these reviews, but I am not a very jokey person, I prefer things to be more serious.
@@TheVincenzoGamingThey could be Hitler and I'd still review it fairly. In that case getting it legitimately and indirectly supporting them is another thing though
7:40 Wait wait wait. I KNOW WHO POSTED THAT. It was a friend I know who lives in Poland, they (not gonna reveal who they are) recently updated their comment to a positive one saying "nvm it's good actually" but yeah, surreal seeing them pop up in here.
i wish they made a whole update on just more moons, and make it like titan or dine by being that you have to complete a few quotas before you can go there and get cooler items
I wouldnt say solo is near as fun but i definitely recommend trying it. Gives you the full experience of how scary and atmospheric the game can be, and also teaches you to play more cautiously for when moving to a group Also id say its nice that the game gives you the option
I played solo for a bit and its a different game. I do hope they add some support for solo (more slots, minimap, maybe better stamina.) It is a lot of fun solo
@@jeremyhahn3612 There are mods that can improve upon this, for example Mikes Tweaks a configuration mod, allows you to change your slots and stamina but no Minimap.
Me and my friend agree that as long as you’re getting 1 hour of enjoyment out of every dollar spent, it was worth it. And with lethal company I have double that requirement.
i absolutely agree with the greater goal thing, i played this right after playing in phasmophobia and in that game being able to level up and unlock better equippment is a huge motivation and a fun part of the game that makes me feel like im progressing in lethal company once you game over everything just resets back to zero and you gain nothing (except experience) itd be nice if you unlocked more stuff or had levels or maybe how splatoon salmon run does it where you basically get cooler suit colors depending on your experience in the game, or maybe improved equipment, like you can only unlock the pro flashlight after a certain level, or maybe you get a scanner that reaches further, or you can get batteries that will let your equipment last longer, also i feel like you should be able to save your ships layout because if you have a certain position you like to have for the furniture, having to move it all one by one again every single round gets tedious i just dont bother customizing my ship anymore because its all temporary anyway :(
Never played the game but watched it. It seems the most fun part is playing with another "human" being and seeing them fear for their life while also learning about the mechanics and the monsters. The learning is fun. When you learn enough, you put that theory into a test and try to survive (you won't). Your objective isn't to just fetch stuff, but to survive WHILE fetching stuff. While it's true that the game doesn't have a lot, it's still plausible for an Early Access game (also it's "cheap") and being made by like one person. Graphics are adding a lot to the game, because you would be scared more of a few polygons that are screaming at you in 8-bit than a hyper-realistic looking ahh that sounds louder than your mom when you forgor to clean your room. The "bad" aspect of the game makes the game "fun". A game doesn't need to look good to BE good. Only thing that matters is gameplay. The difficulty only changes with the time you spend on the planet and depends on what planet landed. The game forces you to learn quickly and efficiently and punishes you for not doing so. It also allows you to play the game while somebody is AFK, as you don't need their input to continue. EDIT: Also, yeah. I think that playing this game solo, and also other games, doesn't make you feel the full potential and will make you feel empty inside very quickly. Either bully your friends to buy the game or buy the game for them OR join randoms and hope you don't die first.
The game also encourages playing with more people as there's a difficulty scale that increases how many items you get with the more players in your team, so at some point playing by yourself actually becomes impossible because you just won't have enough items to meet quota, especially when you're having to get the items yourself. Zeekerss should have that difficulty scale also effect quota and have it be nerfed with the less number of players in your party.
The best thing about the game is not the gameplay nor the mechanics nor the horror, it's the fun experience you have. Everytime I watch someone play Lethal Company, I always end up laughing because they all kept dying in a funny manner.
6:04 Personally, I saw that "It's just endless fetch quests" more as "the game needs more variety in objectives" which i can neither agree or disagree since i simply watch TH-camrs play it but i guess i kinda understand since all you do is collect items and sell them but there is a lot of variety of enemies and moons. But idk, just sharin' my thoughts.
ngl i wish lethal company had more tasks other than just scrap gathering, like go to X location, find X machine and turn it on doing a simple puzzle or something, or have to turn other machines etc, like a actual job instead of just scrap
6:15 "maybe they should add a greater goal" no they shouldn't. just do the goal, if you're playing with your friends then you can set your own challenges for each other, you can give each other dare, you can see who can ring the bell the most without getting eaten. the point is you try to meet your quota while fucking around and having fun with your friends.
My only real complaint about LC is that monsters like the thumper and ooze can just- hover - over the jump gaps to keep up with you like at the end of the video there.
I'm pretty sure the Thumper is canonically jumping over like you are and it just looks like hovering because theres no animation for it yet? Maybe? Idk For the Hygrodere? I like to think its just slinging itself over like spiderman
The problem I have with the game is that if you want to try and get a high quota, the best way to do it is to split up and grab as much loot as you can before stuff starts to spawn, which leads to players missing the "funny" moments because they are apart from each other. Also if you're decent nearly all monsters can be avoided, also removing the funny moments.
The fact the monsters don't spawn in the building immediately also makes the funny moments harder to encounter because you instinctively start leaving before anything can even spawn.
early on when lethal company was first popping off, i saw a review basically recommending the game, but they hit "not recommend" because they wanted their review to be seen. literal clowns on steam
10:52 this is true terror hearing a turret gun down something that is alive and when you look back you see a line of blood and a shovel on the ground is where the horror comes into play
Great video! Although for some people the biggest part of Lethal Company is the fear of the unknown so in the future you may want to blur or mark new update enemies or items as "Spoiler" or timestamp it as a spoiler so that people who have not played it since the new update are able to play it not knowing what has been added!
I mean, on the monsters side there is one exception: the forest giant: those bastards are faster and stronger than you, you can't kill them, and they have eagle sight and bats hearing. Sure they can't really get you in the ship and the kill animation gives you an extra second if you were already getting teleported before getting caught, but I feel like they're the one thing with no real counterplay besides avoid it and hope it doesn't spot you from halfway across the map.
Actually Giants I believe are deaf and cannot hear sound. Essentially, the dogs perfect counter part. The giant can see you but not hear you, meaning a flash bang is extremely effective, but the flash bang won't effect the dog, making them the perfect outdoor duo.
I think the fact I have nearly 850 hours on geometry dash says something about how the price of the game doesn't matter, it's how fun the game actually is.
The game has what’s called a gameplay loop. And it’s a pretty good one. Yes, the over all goal is the moments you get with other people. If you’re alone, just make your own goals, maybe to reach quota 10. Also, Lethal Company is terrifying alone. If you wanna be scared.
3:15 Currently at 50 hours and I still got a lot more to play. Also bought the game so many times for my friends because it's so much fun playing with people who have not tried it yet. This game is a steal and that guy is stupid for thinking that 20 hours is not worth it.
Honestly I am a big fan of playing this game solo. With a group it's absolutely amazing, but playing alone is where the horror and fear aspects of the game truly shine.
Yessss 😰the deaths though,,,, when you have 4 people and someone dies to maybe a bracken or landmine its like “hahah, classic lethal company. ill head back now” when its just you that same scenario is 😬
This game requires: - Friends - Potential for screaming As a teenager who lives in his parent’s house with only 2 friends that actually play the game, I see this as an absolute loss
4:40 bro definitely screams at eyeless dogs, stares at brackens, walked up to spore lizards, jumps off of the ship before it lands, picks up a beehive and dies whenever he sees one, buys normal flashlights, runs away from giants, runs around when a snare flea gets him, kills his teammates with ladders, dies with a jet pack, goes to eclipsed maps when he needs to get money for quota, and closes the game when someone roasts him
Honestly i can see a couple enemies that needs tweaking like the Thumper, sure theyre supposed to be fast but not mach 3 fast, and yes i know theyre very slow when up close but when they spot you from down a hall before you do its almost a guaranteed death
I dont think the Thumper is really difficult, they can only accelerate in a forward direction but struggle in changing directions which is why you utilize moving sideways more when trying to fight a thumper with a shovel or just go zig zag and lose line of sight due to the thumper not being able to hear and can only see. I have killed multiple thumpers using this strat coupled with a shovel or a shotgun solo.
I believe this game's fun really depends on the people you play with, you could really either make it a fun experience or miserable if random people suck
The Description of Lethal Company (on Steam): "A co-op horror about scavenging at abandoned moons to sell scrap to the Company." So that eliminates quite a few (actual) bad reviews: Solo players who have no friends (either actual or to play) and are too introverted to play public, people who can't realize the terminal and Sigurd's bestiary is there to HELP YOU, reviews miffed at the game being all fetch quests, no "greater goal" (go get invested in the indie horror lore then, there's your "greater goal"). Tho saw one bad review that it's boring, even with friends, so idk what's there tbh. I've had good fun on my own and with friends (especially the MoreCompany mod, absolutely hilarious seeing our 8-man team dwindle to one survivor XD) for the ~12 hrs I've played over the past like 2 weeks. I guess the reviewer just wasn't easily invested or scared with horror?
In fairness, I think "no greater goal" is a valid complaint, because at some point you'll reach a level where you simply will not be able to make the ever increasing quota. Some ability to reach an "end" would make it feel less like you're just playing to inevitably lose. My only other complaint would be that if the whole crew dies you lose everything stored on the ship, which does feel a little BS. Still, it's a fun game that only needs a little bit of tweaking to be perfect.
@@terrified057t4 not saying they have to cater to single-player, more so they can. but also the point of early access is to receive feedback. if this is common feedback, then id say do something about it.
I was just thinking of a simple way to add a grand goal to the game. You can purchase your freedom for a huge amount of money. Like 5,000 and you beat the game or something. It allows you to “win” if you want, but it doesn’t force you to end your play through if you don’t want to.
I think part of the charm of the game is just playing it over and over for hours and hours with your friends and having the fun/funny moments. And it's so satisfying when you get your first monster kill!
Actually playing by yourself gives u more experience than other players because in certain situations in Lethal Company you'll know exactly what to do also I want to point out that playing this game some people don't try to communicate in the game a lot so say like as if the Jester is playing the music and they'll run past you without saying anything then you die because of lack of communication so in certain ways yes playing the game solo for a bit gives you more of a edge than people constantly playing with each other.
@@teamkiller0774honestly the people who are complaining about the dev being a furry are just whiny children who only listen to blatantly false internet propaganda
I actually like the solo experience of this game, I would still always prefer to play with friends, but the challenge of solo is fun, and I hope that they don’t balance it, as it takes the fear factor to 100
The review at 1:45 is actually correct, Lethal Company uses a Player To Player connection, meaning your IP address is exposed to others, so a VPN is a way to prevent DDOS attacks from this game.
if you look under the company floor you will see something big is planned for the game. my theory is that in "lore" your crew gets sick of doing the same thing and have to find a way to kill the company monster by blowing up the company, but we'll see

The real horror of Lethal Company is the people you play with.
Friends become not friends when the option to stand on a mine exists.
I think the dev needs to add, "Harvest" missions where you are tasked with "Harvesting" a murderous alien prior to missions. The alien would eat one of the team in return for the person being eaten being absent in the next mission.
Instead of 5 $ you would get 250$ ensured.
i peer pressured my friend to stand on a mine to see if they were realistic or not
they were realistic (it blows up when you step off, so as long as you stay still ur fine)
but then one of my other friends hit him with a yield sign and they both got blown up
I want to stand on a mine far away from my friends and say “hey guys what’s that beeping sound?” Then they tell me to stand there and I step off so I they hear a muffled scream and explosion
The lack of a goal is why this game is so fun, its the reason you can walk up to two guys with one explaining how landmines work, then stepping on the land mine killing all three of you then laughing like mad rather than being pissed cause the greater goal is now unobtainable when every run is already doomed to fail from the get-go.

@@Vontact Quota&Death: **Vanish**
@@mechchococh.4313 oh
I think there being "No goal" is really the only valid complaint that I would agree with.
Like, you use Minecraft and Slime Rancher as examples of games that you can play endlessly, and that's completely true, but you've completely ignored the fact that BOTH of those games have an "ending" or "end goal" that you can achieve if you choose to do so.
I know Lethal Company has stuff planned and in the works, so in a way it's not really an issue as the game simply isn't finished. But story wise, personally I hope that there WILL be a way to "save" yourself and your crew to achieve some sort of ending if you want to not play endlessly - especially since you _can't_ play endlessly. At some point the quota gets to high it's impossible to continue on. I don't think you're _supposed_ to keep playing.
Also, there are many ways to progress in minecraft and many more to play. Really, minecraft should've never been brought up because they have nothing in common. But bringing its cousin phasmophobia up wouldnt have done anything because it has the same problem. The game isnt for everyone, but that isnt brought up. Not everyone enjoys this style of game and not adressing that seems to me like cherry picking.
I also agree that rhe game should be more solo player friendly, because some QoL changes would be easy to make
The secret drill combined with the story implies there might be an objective to break into the company at some point
Slime Rancher Mentioned!!!
Theres a drill under the co.pany building that looks like it can be powered with apparatuses. Im assuming those are going to end up being the "greater goal" once that gets fleshed out.
On top of "no end goal", I think another valid complaint is that it needs some more tilesets. The "industrial" stuff gets kind of samey after a while, so the mansion tileset is a breath of fresh air. Maybe stuff like laboratories or a big botanical research station would be great.
I'd also recommend a randomly spawning charging station - maube with a limited number of charges.
It's a great game, though, and even with randoms it can be loads of fun.
We need more RNG overall! I'd like a mode with entirely RNG moons.
Right, the possibilities are endless, I also had a peeve with the costs to go to the harder moons too, they need to be cheaper or no cost at all, what with the difficulty spike.
Considering how early on it is, I don't doubt we'll get more interior layouts in the future. What I think would be cool is if there was a non with *two* different interiors, basically double the loot but you have to risk splitting up between buildings to get the most out of it
@@nitrolight1778 You'll stop feeling this way once you're better at the game tbh.

True
6:20 it looks like they might be planning something in the future for a goal to work towards. There is a little secret somewhere that looks like it wants you to collect items though it doesn't appear to work just yet.
agreed ive speculated with a friend of mine that its a way of breaking down the wall at the company building to find out whats up with the company. im also fairly certain its connected to the apparatus because its the only item thats got questionmarks upon first scanning it and second of all its the only item that is found in a special room(generator room) also the 2 slots on the secret look exactly like the generators where you take the apparatus out of so maybe the company will be the final dungeon with the players blowing up a way inside but first you need 2 apparatus before to access?
@@SomeDude420 Yeah I believe so as well. Along with some other items like something to serve as a plunger and some other bits to slot into the other spots.
@@SomeDude420 if the company will be a endgame dungeon, i would like to think that you should be able to keep a shotgun or two with you so you can enter it with that! (wouldnt doubt that the place would have a uniqe monster or two that would be hard to deal with even with a shotgun!)
idk if I wanna enter a place with a giant tentacle monster
I have heard someone say that you need to collect "Apparatus" for that. Weirdly, even though that item has a price when selling, it only display ??? when scanning.
the inverse teleporter straight into a springhead is almost as funny as my 4th time using inverse teleporter spawning ontop of a mine, not looking down and blowing up

@@dinoaurus1 The inverse teleporter, while dropping your items, does speed up time to get into the building which helps at harder planets because I believe I heard no real monsters spawn until like 10am or sometime but even if that is wrong earlier on the monsters aren't as numerous and its relatively safe. Besides the situations that can unfold are usually always funny.

Or just have no friends
Mfw an early access game is buggy
All I could say about the game was "phasmophobia but """horror""" comedy if you have friends or are extremely lucky with randoms"
Most of the people that hate on this game have either not played it more than maybe 15 to 30 minutes, or just don't have any friends. I don't say that in a meme-ish "ha ha, look at the no friend loser." kind of way, I'm saying this in more of a "This game genuinely is better with other people." kind of way. The amount of gut busting laughter you can experience seeing one of your friends get fucked over by a monster, jump off a catwalk into a pit of death on accident, or die on the ship while you spectate them to a dog creeping up to them while they flip switch to take off to fleeting safety only to have the monstrosity jaw fuck them into a VIP full access pass to the gates of heaven- yeah, it's fucking hilarious. The people who can't experience this are of course going to get bored pretty quickly when they have no one to make said experiences with, and that is genuinely sad.
nah playing with randos can be fun thoo, but only if they got a functioning mic (most of my gameplays are with randos)
100% agree. Most reviews in my language that ive read were a bunch of clueless people who hopped in solo with no idea what to do, died and whined the game sucked
To be fair there is PLENTY of stuff to criticize the game on. THe graphics are terrible, beyond 'art style' terrible. Like "its hard to read the readout on the terminal" bad, where HDLethal Company mod is mandatory if you have a half decent monitor.
The server browser is sophmore-in-college grade, no sorting by player count. No sorting by best connection, no server history to see recent players. You join a public lobby and the host says hes going to restart it? Sucks for you its a pain to find the lobby again.
Then you can criticize monster-player interaction. Aggro an eyeless dog? Well its perma-aggro'd on the last area it heard you, if thats by the ship entrance, it camps it the rest of the game.
Aggro'd a giant? It will follow you forever. If it follows you to the ship, it camps the entrance.
@@skylarc6063 Pretty sure you can flash giants. Also stun them. Also giants are not bad as you should get a teleporter incase that stuff happens, you can tp as they are getting chased if no one can stun it. There's so many strats that you learn after some time played. I have around 40hrs now and can regularly get to well over 2500 quota with my friend as a 2man. As group of 4 it's even easier and you will usually have one in ship, two roaming and one grabbing loot back to ship. Even ghost girl can be made useless
Game's fun with randoms. Don't need friends for this one.
I REALLY appreciate that they made the game $10.
It makes it so I can buy a copy for me and a friend for the price of a normal game, or simply buy one for myself and play with strangers.
It opens up alot of accessibility.
It's a genius choice, the game is clearly built around multiplayer with 4 players, and by having it be $10 you can buy it for your friends, equating to about $40-$50 total. I doubt this was intentional, as Zeeekers tends to set their games at abnormally low prices for the experience they offer, but it's food for thought
Exactly. I got it gifted to me as a present from my friends just because it is so cheap

It's only really a struggle if you have low vision, but glasses and using a flashie in game seem to work for most people.

@@ok_genius Ye, and i'm hopin for a way for our fellas to break free of that cycle. Our lil guys deserve freedom from the horrors 😭
Yeah, I feel like quite a few of the negative reviews ignore that this is early access
It's pretty arcade-esque so I honestly don't mind the repetitive nature and lack of an end goal
For a game that has no overarching goal, it's the first multiplayer game that I've actively enjoyed playing without having some other kind of incentive to keep logging in (battlepasses/special events). Most multiplayer games get old and I just use them to play with friends because the randoms in other games can be rough. This game has core gameplay that always makes me feel part of the team and I love it.
One thing about other multiplayer games is that they’re so aggressively competitive that it makes them not fun to play.
This game however is way more cooperative which leads to whole lot less anger from both you and your friends. I think that also partially comes from not having an overarching goal so when you lose it’s more of a, “New PB! Cool!” Rather than a “How tf did you mess that up?!?!!!” (Obviously depends who you’re playing with)
I kinda like that the lack of an end goal leads to "We'll have to die anyway."
It's purely about the process and terrible things happening along the way.
Can't be mad for too long, when you kinda expect to lose, but have some laughs with your pals nonetheless.
it's almost like you don't need fomo incentives to hop on and play something if that something is actively engaging and fun lol
only actual incentive we have atm is to goof off and have fun, and the game's really, really good at providing opportunities for such
I sorta don't know if I'd prefer an endgame goal over more opportunities to mess around. on one hand, being able to end a run sounds neat and gives players something to actually play towards, however I think it would lend to people getting fussy about goofing off if that person would prefer to just rush the goal.
I've met a lot of randoms in my lobbies, and they've universally just been chillin for a good time in a good game. I think the dynamic could change if a steady goal was actually set and I don't think I'd prefer it over continuation of monsters, moons and a bit more narrative.
Almost any game is fun with friends. It's just how it doubles down on the communication and it's random aspect is what makes it fun. It creates hilarious situations that a pro screenwriter can't imagine. That is this games strength.
I mean SMP servers for stuff lime Gmod an Minecraft have become full on Tabletop game worlds why is there so much lore for 7 Spanish fools with baller anime intros dafuk
Yeah even the worst games I've had fun with them
8:00 that monotone "oh fu-" is the best clip I've seen yet
Even though Zeekerss is a furry, why should we hate the game for that? Zeekerss has brought laughter and a game that we for sure have years of good content yet to experience. Even though I my self am not a fan of furries, to Zeekerss I’m sure we can all say bravo, BRAVO for such a hilariously thrilling game. Here guys I think Zeekerss dropped this 🏆
Zeekerss is overall a really good game, dev
He has been making games for years upon years
And good ones at that
I'm not a furry, nor am I in the Fandom, but I could care less. A furry is just a genre of character design, it says nothing about the person
It literally changes absolutely nothing.
I don't even understand why people care about this shit.

Yeah I could see how having almost no means to defend yourself with a weapon could be frustrating to some, but even if you did have some means to protect yourself, the game can still find ways to screw people over. I mean, on one run with friends, I didn't even take two steps into the facility when a bracken immediately snapped my neck without me even seeing him or anyone else being the wiser and I think it's that type of randomness in the maps and the creature spawns that adds to the games hilarity and entertainment value imo.
Hilarity of complete fucking horror, the Bracken does both fantastically, they either kill someone right in front of you hilariously or play an entire horror movie scene.
I was playing with a friend, we were trying to find the exit, i went into a room ahead of him, got confused when he didn't follow me, only to turn around and see blood on the floor and his flashlight on the ground, no sound, nothing, and now I had to find my way out, alone, with a shitty flashlight, and that thing following me.
About the scaling - from what me and my friends noticed, there is actually one based on player count, but it doesn't affect the quota, it affects the amount of loot. We might be delusional about this, but we noticed how much the amount varies based on player count, especially if you have mods increasing the player count (items literally everywhere). I'm aware of the possibility that it might have been the mod affecting this, yet we still noticed a big difference between 2 and 4 players in vanilla. All that means is that even if you can find a way to carry enough loot solo, you simply might not get enough, making this game even less hospitable to solo players.
Tbh it should be the other way around, more players, less loot, with a cap of just barely enough to be a bit above quota
I really feel like the reverse should be true, less loot for more players. It's insanely easy to reach quotas with 4 players while with 1 or 2 it's an ENDEAVOR.
It enturely depends kn the map and weather. I played with 8 people and there is map there was 5 to 9 objects, then we got to the money-maker map and there was 21 objects. I scanned at every start of the day
Less loot for more players doesn’t make sense at all. You get in, split up, return with your two items each and you’re ready to leave at 11am after picking the moon clean.
No, there absolutely should be more items when there are more players to carry them. HOWEVER, there should *also* be a value modifier that works in reverse. Baseline for 4 players, increases with less people so that they can reach the same quota with less scrap because it’s worth more.
I’ve got a theory that the “Gold planet” could be an end goal in future updates because the lore talks about it so much
Nah, it got eaten by a monster. Said monster could be "the company".
nah imagine the company built over the gold moon and thats what you land on every time you go to deposit your scrap@@Dado_nastro
"Greater goal" will probably be added with the drill under the company building
I did not buy the game as I play solo but this last month has been fun watching people play on youtube. It is nice to see a indie game explode. It has a lot more potential to be even better.
All the people that put "game bad cause dev is furry" as a reason for their negative review need to understand that the dev's interests SHOULD NOT influence your opinion on the game.
Separate your opinions of the creator from their creation.
Also the "WAAAAAAA NO SEX!!!!!!!!!!" negative reviews are so unfunny, unoriginal, and unhelpful.
Yea, I am overreacting to these reviews, but I am not a very jokey person, I prefer things to be more serious.
The Little Ellen show was bashed by some people because it technically was endorsed by Ellen from that one program
lots of negative reviews for Celeste because the dev/main character (i forgor which, i think both?) is trans :/
What if the dev was a pedophile? Should that not influence your opinion on the game
@TheVincenzoGaming Even if they're that bad of a person, it still wouldn't affect my opinion of the game.
@@TheVincenzoGamingThey could be Hitler and I'd still review it fairly. In that case getting it legitimately and indirectly supporting them is another thing though
I've found that the game is a great way to make friends too, queuing up with people and making silly memories with strangers is great
7:40
Wait wait wait. I KNOW WHO POSTED THAT. It was a friend I know who lives in Poland, they (not gonna reveal who they are) recently updated their comment to a positive one saying "nvm it's good actually" but yeah, surreal seeing them pop up in here.
"A furry made this" is the stupidest shit I have ever read.
In fact they do have plans to add a greater goal that connects to the story
Htwo videos will always be a banger.
press x to agree
i wish they made a whole update on just more moons, and make it like titan or dine by being that you have to complete a few quotas before you can go there and get cooler items
I wouldnt say solo is near as fun but i definitely recommend trying it. Gives you the full experience of how scary and atmospheric the game can be, and also teaches you to play more cautiously for when moving to a group
Also id say its nice that the game gives you the option
I played solo for a bit and its a different game. I do hope they add some support for solo (more slots, minimap, maybe better stamina.) It is a lot of fun solo
@@jeremyhahn3612 maybe, there are a few things, like how face huggers will only drop you down to critical health on solo and then run off
@@jeremyhahn3612 There are mods that can improve upon this, for example Mikes Tweaks a configuration mod, allows you to change your slots and stamina but no Minimap.
Me and my friend agree that as long as you’re getting 1 hour of enjoyment out of every dollar spent, it was worth it. And with lethal company I have double that requirement.
i absolutely agree with the greater goal thing, i played this right after playing in phasmophobia and in that game being able to level up and unlock better equippment is a huge motivation and a fun part of the game that makes me feel like im progressing
in lethal company once you game over everything just resets back to zero and you gain nothing (except experience)
itd be nice if you unlocked more stuff or had levels or maybe how splatoon salmon run does it where you basically get cooler suit colors depending on your experience in the game, or maybe improved equipment, like you can only unlock the pro flashlight after a certain level, or maybe you get a scanner that reaches further, or you can get batteries that will let your equipment last longer, also i feel like you should be able to save your ships layout because if you have a certain position you like to have for the furniture, having to move it all one by one again every single round gets tedious i just dont bother customizing my ship anymore because its all temporary anyway :(
Never played the game but watched it. It seems the most fun part is playing with another "human" being and seeing them fear for their life while also learning about the mechanics and the monsters. The learning is fun. When you learn enough, you put that theory into a test and try to survive (you won't). Your objective isn't to just fetch stuff, but to survive WHILE fetching stuff. While it's true that the game doesn't have a lot, it's still plausible for an Early Access game (also it's "cheap") and being made by like one person. Graphics are adding a lot to the game, because you would be scared more of a few polygons that are screaming at you in 8-bit than a hyper-realistic looking ahh that sounds louder than your mom when you forgor to clean your room. The "bad" aspect of the game makes the game "fun". A game doesn't need to look good to BE good. Only thing that matters is gameplay. The difficulty only changes with the time you spend on the planet and depends on what planet landed. The game forces you to learn quickly and efficiently and punishes you for not doing so. It also allows you to play the game while somebody is AFK, as you don't need their input to continue.
EDIT: Also, yeah. I think that playing this game solo, and also other games, doesn't make you feel the full potential and will make you feel empty inside very quickly. Either bully your friends to buy the game or buy the game for them OR join randoms and hope you don't die first.
The game also encourages playing with more people as there's a difficulty scale that increases how many items you get with the more players in your team, so at some point playing by yourself actually becomes impossible because you just won't have enough items to meet quota, especially when you're having to get the items yourself. Zeekerss should have that difficulty scale also effect quota and have it be nerfed with the less number of players in your party.
The best thing about the game is not the gameplay nor the mechanics nor the horror, it's the fun experience you have. Everytime I watch someone play Lethal Company, I always end up laughing because they all kept dying in a funny manner.

@@VOgaming51official yeah because like after a bit of playing vanilla i got bored and played modded then got bored of that
Some people dislike this game because lethal compamy was made by a furry which is a pretty stupid reason to hate the game
Those people are usually 13 or never mentally developed past 13
6:04 Personally, I saw that "It's just endless fetch quests" more as "the game needs more variety in objectives" which i can neither agree or disagree since i simply watch TH-camrs play it but i guess i kinda understand since all you do is collect items and sell them but there is a lot of variety of enemies and moons.
But idk, just sharin' my thoughts.
ngl i wish lethal company had more tasks other than just scrap gathering, like go to X location, find X machine and turn it on doing a simple puzzle or something, or have to turn other machines etc, like a actual job instead of just scrap
6:15 "maybe they should add a greater goal"
no they shouldn't. just do the goal, if you're playing with your friends then you can set your own challenges for each other, you can give each other dare, you can see who can ring the bell the most without getting eaten. the point is you try to meet your quota while fucking around and having fun with your friends.
My only real complaint about LC is that monsters like the thumper and ooze can just- hover - over the jump gaps to keep up with you like at the end of the video there.
I'm pretty sure the Thumper is canonically jumping over like you are and it just looks like hovering because theres no animation for it yet? Maybe? Idk
For the Hygrodere? I like to think its just slinging itself over like spiderman
The problem I have with the game is that if you want to try and get a high quota, the best way to do it is to split up and grab as much loot as you can before stuff starts to spawn, which leads to players missing the "funny" moments because they are apart from each other. Also if you're decent nearly all monsters can be avoided, also removing the funny moments.
The fact the monsters don't spawn in the building immediately also makes the funny moments harder to encounter because you instinctively start leaving before anything can even spawn.
Heh. Yeah its intense doing it solo😂 little me going in like a lunatic grabbing everything I can, oh... pills here!!!

early on when lethal company was first popping off, i saw a review basically recommending the game, but they hit "not recommend" because they wanted their review to be seen.

10:52
this is true terror
hearing a turret gun down something that is alive
and when you look back you see a line of blood and a shovel on the ground is where the horror comes into play
"It's a good game but the owner is a furry"
😐
Those people are just looking for reasons to be jealous of the money the dev is making
I mean, I dont like furries, but thats not a reason to hate a game.
"Appreciate the art, not the artist", except it cant even be called that because the dev isnt even a bad person
Great video! Although for some people the biggest part of Lethal Company is the fear of the unknown so in the future you may want to blur or mark new update enemies or items as "Spoiler" or timestamp it as a spoiler so that people who have not played it since the new update are able to play it not knowing what has been added!
Ngl that sponsor jumpscared me
I mean, on the monsters side there is one exception: the forest giant: those bastards are faster and stronger than you, you can't kill them, and they have eagle sight and bats hearing. Sure they can't really get you in the ship and the kill animation gives you an extra second if you were already getting teleported before getting caught, but I feel like they're the one thing with no real counterplay besides avoid it and hope it doesn't spot you from halfway across the map.
Just run from them, you can out run them
Flash granade
Actually Giants I believe are deaf and cannot hear sound. Essentially, the dogs perfect counter part. The giant can see you but not hear you, meaning a flash bang is extremely effective, but the flash bang won't effect the dog, making them the perfect outdoor duo.
giants can hear? ive never been heard by one b4 in my 50hrs of running and screaming when they arentlooking
I think the fact I have nearly 850 hours on geometry dash says something about how the price of the game doesn't matter, it's how fun the game actually is.
Only 850 hours?
The game has what’s called a gameplay loop. And it’s a pretty good one. Yes, the over all goal is the moments you get with other people. If you’re alone, just make your own goals, maybe to reach quota 10. Also, Lethal Company is terrifying alone. If you wanna be scared.
3:15 Currently at 50 hours and I still got a lot more to play. Also bought the game so many times for my friends because it's so much fun playing with people who have not tried it yet. This game is a steal and that guy is stupid for thinking that 20 hours is not worth it.
Honestly I am a big fan of playing this game solo. With a group it's absolutely amazing, but playing alone is where the horror and fear aspects of the game truly shine.
Yessss 😰the deaths though,,,, when you have 4 people and someone dies to maybe a bracken or landmine its like “hahah, classic lethal company. ill head back now” when its just you that same scenario is 😬
10:46 the way bro walked into the pit like "igh see yall tommorow my shift is over"
This game requires:
- Friends
- Potential for screaming
As a teenager who lives in his parent’s house with only 2 friends that actually play the game, I see this as an absolute loss
"The game is good and all but the owner is a furry."
Just upset that you can't be a furry in the game.

4:40 bro definitely screams at eyeless dogs, stares at brackens, walked up to spore lizards, jumps off of the ship before it lands, picks up a beehive and dies whenever he sees one, buys normal flashlights, runs away from giants, runs around when a snare flea gets him, kills his teammates with ladders, dies with a jet pack, goes to eclipsed maps when he needs to get money for quota, and closes the game when someone roasts him
the starter kit,,,,,
Honestly i can see a couple enemies that needs tweaking like the Thumper, sure theyre supposed to be fast but not mach 3 fast, and yes i know theyre very slow when up close but when they spot you from down a hall before you do its almost a guaranteed death
I dont think the Thumper is really difficult, they can only accelerate in a forward direction but struggle in changing directions which is why you utilize moving sideways more when trying to fight a thumper with a shovel or just go zig zag and lose line of sight due to the thumper not being able to hear and can only see. I have killed multiple thumpers using this strat coupled with a shovel or a shotgun solo.

😬well
this is the only person on earth i am willing to listen to them go on a 15 minute rant about steam negatives reviews
"Add a greater goal to the game."
Step 1: Achievements.
Step 2: Unlockable Cosmetics.
Step 3: Profit.
4:53 ahhh but here's the thing they can't read
But how did they type?
The Description of Lethal Company (on Steam): "A co-op horror about scavenging at abandoned moons to sell scrap to the Company."
So that eliminates quite a few (actual) bad reviews: Solo players who have no friends (either actual or to play) and are too introverted to play public, people who can't realize the terminal and Sigurd's bestiary is there to HELP YOU, reviews miffed at the game being all fetch quests, no "greater goal" (go get invested in the indie horror lore then, there's your "greater goal").
Tho saw one bad review that it's boring, even with friends, so idk what's there tbh. I've had good fun on my own and with friends (especially the MoreCompany mod, absolutely hilarious seeing our 8-man team dwindle to one survivor XD) for the ~12 hrs I've played over the past like 2 weeks. I guess the reviewer just wasn't easily invested or scared with horror?
In fairness, I think "no greater goal" is a valid complaint, because at some point you'll reach a level where you simply will not be able to make the ever increasing quota. Some ability to reach an "end" would make it feel less like you're just playing to inevitably lose.
My only other complaint would be that if the whole crew dies you lose everything stored on the ship, which does feel a little BS.
Still, it's a fun game that only needs a little bit of tweaking to be perfect.
a co-op game can still have a balanced single-player mode
@@bimeshii too much expectation for a single dev in early access imo
@@terrified057t4 not saying they have to cater to single-player, more so they can.
but also the point of early access is to receive feedback. if this is common feedback, then id say do something about it.
I was just thinking of a simple way to add a grand goal to the game. You can purchase your freedom for a huge amount of money. Like 5,000 and you beat the game or something. It allows you to “win” if you want, but it doesn’t force you to end your play through if you don’t want to.
They have something bigger in mind
that wouldnt make sense in the lore
I think part of the charm of the game is just playing it over and over for hours and hours with your friends and having the fun/funny moments. And it's so satisfying when you get your first monster kill!
That transition to the ad was really smooth and im still surprised about all of the negative reviews related to sex
I just started the video and I'm guessing a lot of them are gonna be complaining about the dev being a furry
Actually playing by yourself gives u more experience than other players because in certain situations in Lethal Company you'll know exactly what to do also I want to point out that playing this game some people don't try to communicate in the game a lot so say like as if the Jester is playing the music and they'll run past you without saying anything then you die because of lack of communication so in certain ways yes playing the game solo for a bit gives you more of a edge than people constantly playing with each other.
Ye, but i perfer playing as a group
I was expecting the "game dev is a furry" negative review. Truly a case study in just how petty some people are.

8:22 "you have to be quiet to sneak past blind enemies"
?
I actually like the solo experience of this game, I would still always prefer to play with friends, but the challenge of solo is fun, and I hope that they don’t balance it, as it takes the fear factor to 100
The review at 1:45 is actually correct, Lethal Company uses a Player To Player connection, meaning your IP address is exposed to others, so a VPN is a way to prevent DDOS attacks from this game.
Hehe about to prank my friends now that I know this
I'm pretty sure that was just for the Segway to the sponsor

This guy probably just has awful friends. The game is playable solo, but it’s incredibly brutal and much less funny
if you look under the company floor you will see something big is planned for the game.
my theory is that in "lore" your crew gets sick of doing the same thing and have to find a way to kill the company monster by blowing up the company, but we'll see
I like the game but I always get kicked from lobbies because I'm a kid and my voice is an octave higher than the people I'm playing with
