"I expect AAA gameplay, and I got it. It's a big pile of shit."
Best thing I've heard all week.
"in out in out, you spam it all about" That was pretty clever!
genius, smh
The Dark Mass Witcher EffectoMancer
"Roll ouutatha weeyyyyy ..."
*rolls off cliff, distant thud*
As someone who liked the Witcher 3 I have to thank you Mack for telling it like it is. I feel like my eyes roll out of my sockets everytime someone blathers on about how complex and strategic Dark Souls or W3's combat is when it just isn't. You hit a button to dodge out of the way, you hit a button to hit something. It can be fun, and it can be rewarding but it isn't this insane top tier combat system. Just isn't. Anyone who says otherwise is just lying to themselves.
We need a full version of the "We've seen it all before" song .
2:11 cracks me up😂 its too true
ITS THE DARK TECHNOSOULMANCER!!!
Sounds like a cool game.
DARK TECHNOSOULMANCER: WILD SHRIMPS
So, when are you going to play Exanima? You want something different, Exanima is exactly that.
He should
exanima is an awesome piece of work, too bad it's underdeveloped.Because you need first person sight in that game.
I am not 100% sure, but I think Mack does not review early access games. But Im totally agree with you - Exanima is a gulp of fresh air in the industry. I just wish they had more frequent updates! :)
Bare Meetle are a small team and they are trying to pay attention for every little detail they can, hence the low frequency of the updates. Their dream is Sui Generis and they genuinely care about it. First person sight cannot work in Exanima because it was never designed for that in the first place. The current camera+controls setup offers far greater freedom of movement and awareness than a first person control scheme can achieve.
EEEEEIT'S EEEEIT'S EEEEEEIT'S THE SAAAAAAME F**KING GAME
That bell makes my day.
But I have to admit, I actually love Witcher 3's combat system (on higher difficulties)
The combat on the lower difficulties are too easy and you can just stand there and take the hits
+That Guy I personally played on the hardest difficulty and really enjoyed it
Sary Nassar It is really good combat on the highest
That Guy
Quen sign for life
Once you see the shrimp, you can't unsee them...
How do I continue watching this review when you're comparing batman style combat to dark souls...
Lol! "We've seen it all before! We've seen it all before! We've seen it all before!" Love that song Mack.
Hey Mack, could you name a few games with actual combat mechanics? I would really enjoy playing something that requires skill or at least some thought.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma/Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2/Ninja Gaiden Razors Edge. No game comes close to the combat system of these three, the only one that could come close is the Devil May Cry games.
Instead of deleting comments he could answer my question, i'm legit curious, Mack please.
the closest thing i found with combat that actually requires skill its an mmo, blade and soul. ofc i am sure there are more, like maybe the boss only focus games,but i would recommend blade and soul, focused around combat mechanics. sry i know i am not Mack, but i struggle finding a good game with combat mechanics too, especially rpg. now that i think abut, kingdoms of alamur have actual combat mechanics, but blade and soul is maybe the closes i could find. if someone can recommend me some games with combat mechanics, idm eather
I think during the TW3 worthabuy or his 'after the shitstorm explanation vid' he said that in skyrim you actually need to defend and aim to hit your target, and I guess because it's first person and no auto lock he also likes that when you swing you don't swing immediately at enemies you shouldn't be able to see (because it's first person ofc). And then he showed us how bad TW3 combat was by fighting the most basic enemy in the game... And here he is again calling the combat system dumbed down and made for noobs, sigh.
That's a really good suggestion actually, i like the whole martial arts aspect of it, really bad ass. Thanks man !
I think the combat in the Witcher 3 is pretty good. When using all the signs together with positioning and a higher difficulty level is pretty sweet with no spamming. It would be nice if CDPR could add a first person camera option to the mix for a laugh, that would be cool. Anyway this game he's playing here looks proper rife.
When both Mack and Total Biscuit say a game is pitiful it's pitiful.
It was meant to be humorous. Try taking a dollar and buying yourself a sense of humor.
Mack was right the witcher 3 is a horrible game from the point of view of someone that actually likes a challenge in their games.
Never. I play on hard except for 7 days to die and even then I play on max zombie spawns.
I can agree to an extent about the Witcher 3 combat, but not Dark Souls. Anyone who thinks all you do in Dark Souls is roll about and spam the attack buttons is a fucking idiot. Dark Souls has the best combat pretty much of any game, ever. Just a question of knowing how to actually play it and use it. You cannot spam your way through Dark Souls. Mack is shit at Dark Souls and never mastered it but rather chose to bracket in with massively inferior games because he is crap at it and doesn't have the patience for it.
I can rewrite this entire review, "Watch my 'Dark souls review' except, replace 'Dark Souls" with 'Technomancer'"
facepalm
No.
Even shorter review. "Meh".
take a pill
Technomancer waiter: Welcome to our establishment good sir! How would you like your spam; hot, medium warm or cold from the can?
Customer Gamer: Oh I don't feel like spam for the moment, what else do you have on the menu?
Waiter: Good sir! I just said; HOW WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR SPAM; HOT, MEDIUM WARM, OR JUST STRAIGTH FROM THE BLOODY CAN SIR!?!
As soon as he said it's witcher 3, dark souls etc. I downloaded it :) it's gonna be a good game then.
Technomancer = This sounds like something from an 80s
I agree that games seem to be having the same style but how would you fix it. What kind of combat would you like?
Mack's greatest hits on DVD, would pay for that.
have you seen his Sims worth a buy? it's the funniest thing I've seen on TH-cam
Basically right, I only played that shit for lesbian action, at least Sims 2 had sex mods though so it functions like a fapping game as well whereas sims 3 get boring quite fast.
Always enjoy your content, and always make me laugh . Keep up the good work
Thanks for your brutal honesty
Mack, I wanna know - is your bell triple A or is it a budget version?
pretty sure this is a sequel to mars war logs and we all know how well that game did.
press a button, something awesome happens. button awesome combined in... yep mhm
Mac take heart, I've brought most of the games you have thumbed up and have not been disappointed yet.
Mack you Are the MAN!
Love the videos.
This week I bought about 6 games on the steam sale almost all recommended by you and they are great games.
Thanks for the videos.
Dark souls and Witcher 3 are fucking fantastic.....
Hmmmmm it's fine to have your own opinion but I agree with Mack...
Witcher 3 did a lot of things right but the combat was absolutely awful that is why we consider it shit but your opinion.
No way.. the combat was pretty good. with tight ontrols, use of signs and knowing the strengths and weaknesses of your enemies and using it to your advantage etc....if it was easy for mack, he should have played it on hard or deathmarch... and i played it on kb&m and i think it works perfectly....
I disagree but whatever
Can't comment on Dark Souls, it's not my cup of tea. But Witcher? Where to start with that game...great lore, story, characters...absolutely awful controls and combat, plus it has a zoned world with markers all on the half a dozen maps telling you what and where to explore. It's overrated for the amount of praise it gets.
Yup, this game was on my watch list...then it came out and I was disappointed at how bland it was, so glad I didn't buy it.
Same here. A shame to be honest since it was looking really promising.
i buy it, i also like MArs war Logs. I know what i become. I also know whats the problems in the game. But still like it.
Not everything must be perfect.
Watch his Dark Souls and Witcher review, cant take him serious.
He like nothing.
The Gombie I watched a few lets plays on this game that's why it sat in my wishlist for so long before I formed an informed choice.
Because you don't like the games doesn't mean it's bad. I would never rely on a youtuber rant to decide if a game is good or not. Saying that the game does not worth that price is a thing, saying it's awful is another.
Finally, perpetual rants defeat his opinion. Hordak is perfectly right.
I do wonder why he keeps testing games he knows he will not like ? Let me answer that: to keep the rant on and satisfy his viewers. That sucks when you're at that point.
Game is good, finished it a few days ago. Just make sure to focus on no more than 2 skill trees if you want combat to be fun. Good storyline, complex systems of combat, skill and basic crafting which all tie together, nice companion arcs. It's not polished like a 60$ game, but thats ok, because it's not a 60$ game. Also, it seems from his review footage that he hasn't finished the first act- the first act is the worst part of the game. Get to the second act and it's fantastic. It's not for everyone, but it's a great game.
Damnit mack, now I wish you would voice a drunk NPC's in a game. xD That voice was just pure comedy gold.
Can I like these videos twice?
May be there are people who expect something called casual gaming !
Lol, "in out in out, you spam it all about, you do the rolly rolly and that its all about". daym, you should write a song Mack. Anyway, good review.
HE GAVE BIRTH TO STRAFING SHRIMPS
STRAFING SHRIMPS GUYS
I get the feeling that the developers bought the shell of dark souls or witchers from those developers and just added their own skins, maps, models and animations. slapped a huge AAA price on steam and there you go. EZ money
Oh man, I love rolling mechanics. put rolling in your game and instantly even checkers becomes an action game. I cant wait for Elder scrolls 6, but if it doesnt have rolling in it, im not playing it. Unless of course it has 3rd person cover.
I've never understood your hate of W3, but I get it with this. Witcher 3 just isn't about the combat, I agree on that much, but when I played W3 I hadn't really been totally immersed in these games yet. It didn't seem fresh to me but it didn't seem old either, so to me the W3 was a perfect game. The thing is that W3 wasn't trying to take any chances or do anything new. They were trying to make something that'll be remembered as a classic from this era of RPGs, and it will be. Technomancer though... it's as if Spiders thought they could do that as well as CDProjectRed when there's absolutely no way they could. W3 sets too high a standard in terms of creating an immersive RPG.
The thing is, I like my games being games, not movies.
CaesarGamer I mean it's not a movie and you couldn't get the same experience with a movie. It's not as if the combat is bad anyway, it's just not super original. Having a good story, good voice acting, an immersive world, etc. are all things that don't in any way negate it being a game.
+CaesarGamer you really can't get the experience I got from witcher in movies it's such an immersive game with a very gripping story
Sary Nassar So is Patton, Platton, Apocalypse Now, Das Boot, Battle of Britain, Tora! Tora! Tora!, Hamburger Hill, 2001: A Space Odyssey, etc.
I for one am so disappointed this title isn't up to snuff. That environment and art direction is right up my alley...but if the gameplay is piss poor, then it's not worth the effort or coin.
Thanks for looking out, Mack.
I agree with the review but to be fair i think the witcher is the only who done the rolling/dash right
The free game called "Riders of Icarus" is 10000 times more worth the time than this, that is a game that actually could've cost 35 pounds.. Honestly, it is early beta, and it's the best MMORPG that has ever hit, and it deserves to be more known that it is.. do a review on that, you will not regret ^^
congrats on 100k again
Oh look, an alternative 'Bound by Flame'.
"Strafing shrimp" Have 17 pints and try say that really fast lol
Thanks mac for another giggle
You can skin the shrimps for leather, well that's all I needed to know!
haha it was a funny moment for me when you said they were shrimps. I was looking at the smaller enemies for a while, trying to work out what they were meant to be. Then you said shrimps, and now I can only see them as shrimps also XD
strafing shrimp! I'm going to subscribe just for that comment alone. Made me laugh so hard I'm still seeing stars.
Hey Mack, do you know there's freaking dragons now in the new Call of Duty? let it sink for a moment, sit down, look at the cover for the first Call of Duty and then realize that...there are dragons in Call of Duty now... in spaaaaaace.
the boss in this game looks exactly like the lion ant queen from HL2.
you made my head hurt with your developer acting XD
ive gone back to play some mount and blade that is combat not this shit
Uh oh Mack you've upset the withcer and dark souls fan boys.
*TRIGGERING*
The Technomancer: The Amazing Spamy Ballet Dancer
I paid 65 Euro for it, Mack.....
so this game does have something that other games don't have: shrimp enemies LOL
I hope a lot of people preordered this shit. A lot of them. That will teach them to not ever do it again which would be a big for the gaming industry.
Whos the old guy that comes in with Mac at 2:30?
The story is fun, only one reviewer I have seen actually played the game enough to get their rover and leave Ophir. (First city) game is reminiscent of kotor, combat is what it is, and it's actually fun. If you button smash you'll get smacked in the head and die (enemies hit hard) you don't get a cheese counter attack like you do in arkham games, you have to watch your surrounding and enemies to dodge them. Also they don't wait one by one to attack, you can get attacked any time, even in the middle of your own attack. However again, the story and rng elements are great fun. I'm having a blast. A shame many are missing out,
Oh in case anyone wanted to know the reviewer i mentioned, his channel's name is ASC.
stfu
What's wrong with you people?
Yeah, saw his review of both cons and pros, voice acting and music is certainly much better than the last game, Mars War Logs or something, skill tree is interesting where you can go with hybrid builds and such. I do agree its a bit dull but it has its ups and downs, Ill wait till it goes on sale later this year on steam, I just don't think $47.94 cad is worth the price tag right now
+John Uysal ACG*
The janky animations are absurdly funny when paired with all the rolling around and backwards cartwheels that you're expected to do.
Cant wait for the Police simulator WAB.
You are hands down the funniest TH-camr I've ever seen. ROLLLL. And the shrimp oh man LOL.
Definitely sounds like a DJ name haha
10:12 lmfaooo Mack youre great man!
Its not Dark Souls...
True it's not but the combat could be.
+Worth A Buy Idk. At least Dark Souls is a proper video game: it requires effort to progress. This is just skilless button mashing.
oh come on, you know DS is all about spamming attacks then rolling out the way of the enemy, lets not pretend it's not that.
+Worth A Buy you didn't really give dark souls combat a fair shot. It's not intended for kb+m.
you must suck at dark souls really bad lol
Thanks Mack, I almost bought it.
This game has cracked Mack
Loved that "developer's talk" in the start. Made me think of Arkham Knight.
- "Guys, we have a new Batman game that will give us alot of money. What should we do different?"
-"Oh, oh, we let them play world war 3 with the batmobile for 5 hours, before you can free roam! Everyone loves the batmobile!" -"And then we keep the mobs, who you can beat with awesome, slow-mo combos".
-"But hey, guys, let's not make this easy on them. They HAVE to get the right gadgets to progress in sidequests, right? So they can't just go free roam UNTIL they got the right gadgets".
-"Place them back in the batmobile, you think? Everyone's gonna give this game a 10/10".
-"Yeah, we are awesome. And make the ghost of Joker talk when you talk to other people, just to irritate the player, just a litte bit. I'll take a phone to Mark Hammil right away"
If i could give you 5 stars for that review Mack, I would
Game play totally reviewed spot on and for the love of God they need visible damage instead of life bars over their heads.. next Gen should give you more immersion, yet here we are with the same old same.. spot on man.. spot F'ing on!
TL;DW: Mack loved it!
Mack, you are the best!! Thanks for your game insights, that also make me laugh. Never change man! Cheers
I was thinking about picking this up on the summer sale, glad i watched this first loll
I'd buy the "spam song" if you released it as a single..
No one can defend the lack of innovation and laziness in the gaming industry today.
love this channel. hopefully you will get more subs and keep it the way it is :D
If it would just let you climb things and you'll have Assassins Creed.
I really need one of these bell ringers holy shit Mac makes it sounds so fun to owning one of these.
More like Technowanker
You really should have put some Techno or Rave music in the background :D
Hahaaahaaa I laughed so hard when you were imitating the developer.
If you liked the witcher 3 story you might as well get the books,since it's based of a book series.
I loved the other games by Spider, sure not perfect by any means and the combat can be very frustrating, very good in the RPG department tho, i would surely get this when the price settles down.
does your heart get the final say ?
Dignan my heart?
***** you said surely to yourself ?
Dignan yes as in "i'm sure to get it"
***** makes NO sense without i'm or you're etc
Sudden strange urge for a spam sandwich. Weird
I feel like what I need to do is make a spam-x-to-combat survombie game out of Unity assets so I can make every TH-cam reviewer instantly melt like they opened the Ark of the Covenant.
He sounds just like Rhod Gilbert.
I was gonna try this. THanks for the heads up.
another fantastic AAA game i see
The Technoprancer
I want to know what banter piss is
Mack, with July 4th coming up. I as an American would like you to give your opinion of the movie the Patriot.
I always enjoy Mels historical lies
It's a great movie when viewed as fiction, and not taken seriously for any historical reference, except maybe outfits. I like these kind of movies for the sets, outfits, technology, even if they aren't historical or accurate. You ever see Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter? Fantastic movie. Obviously not historically accurate, but such a great movie.
I had a sneaking suspicion this game would suck based on the sheer lack of publicity and media interest prior to release. It seemed to look pretty reasonable in the few gameplay snippets available but clearly the mainstream media knew it was pretty dismal and had done for quite a while.
So many of us complain about the shit like this in the gaming industry. yet, why is it we aren't the one's making the games then Mac if we are so unsatisfied?
You can't compare games because they dodge and spam attacks, that dosen't make it the same game.
Never the less I se what you mean
Exactly ...whats next ?Shooting and killing ?...
Mack please make your own game. i would love to play it. i think it will be awesome :)
Best WAB yet confirmed
SIMS
I laid on the ground clutching my gut as I listened to you give this review. I still listen to it often especially after a good bud smoke, this is a GUT BUSTAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!
The average age of a gamer is 30 something now so its no wonder games are easier to play and prettier to look at.
EDIT: I commented at the start of the video, ignore this comment
You always bash The Witcher 3 (and I see why) but the game isn't focused around combat (unlike some DS bs) but the story and in an RPG aspect it's one of my favourite games.
When I played it for the first time I didn't even care about combat, for the second time I noticed it since I partly knew what was going to happen in some missions so I installed a console mod and made myself one shot enemies.
I finished it the 2nd time and a lot of stuff was diffrent, pretty sure I could also play it the 3rd time and not get bored.
When you say something about any game take into consideration what that game was trying to accomplish (in TW3 case it was the story, not combat), thanks.
