    It's not often I see people who love this game as much as I do. Like you, I consider LEGO City Undercover to be my comfort game as well. I was in high school when it came out on the Wii U and it...brings me so much joy even into my adult years. Amazing that it will be ten next year. It is disheartening to see not many people fawning over this game as they do with others, including Skywalker Saga as of recent. Despite that, I do hope that one day it'll get another continuation. Maybe it's just wishful thinking but part of me is hoping they're just waiting for the right time to do it. Sequels can take years to develop and I prefer they take their time and not rush it. But I never knew the Tt devs considered that game to be their favorite so it kinda brings me hope. With Skywalker Saga done, I hope they're considering revisiting this series. If not then maybe this game's legacy will forever be great.
    Great Video.

    complete timeline.
    Probably the coolest thing that nobody has talked about.
    The Lego 2011 police Station set shows Derek as one of the characters he has the same face. but his hair is covered by the cap he’s wearing. and also one of the criminals is in the game. he also came out in a few other sets. always wearing some kind of hat.
    Another cool thing is the Lego sets kind of tell a story.
    For instance the 2011 police station set takes place right before the game. hence why they have different badges. 15:39
    And then we see him more and more first case being when he first came out in that Lego set. Then coming out in shorts. we can assume that the shorts and the rest of the Lego sets came after the game take place a few years after undercover which is why he is seen so much. he is well trust in the moment everybody police department in Lego city. also in the shorts which is why lots of criminals know his name because it’s still fresh in their minds what happened to Rex fury and everybody else.
    and I have a theory for why he doesn’t come out anymore.
    ___________________________
    Theory 1
    He retired. so he already pretty old so eventually he retired.
    ___________________________
    Theory 2
    He could’ve been fired or demoted:
    most likely for this. 22:25 for police brutality.
    ____________________________
    Theory 3 the most likely
    He could still be working as a cop and we just don’t see him anymore
    ___________________________
    Theory 4
    Duke detain could be an alternate version of him from another universe. having the Nickelodeon show be in a different universe.
    Or he could be his son! his son changing his name to “Duke detain“ as a fake not to be associated with his father.
    I don’t watch the nickelodeon show.

    I just played and beat this game over the course of the summer... It's truly so incredibly fun and really well done. I really wish/hope to see more things come of it, but if not, I think it's pretty neatly tied up. We have the backstory and the main game, plus a few sets. The only reason to bring it up again would be to truly capture Mr. Blackwell, but as it stands, I'm content with how it ended.

    LEGO City Undercover is also one of my absolute favorite games! It's one I can keep going back to; it's comforting. I would LOVE a sequel! I think, for me, one of the reasons it just feels so good and fresh is that is was NOT a licensed game. With all of the licensed stuff, we all had an idea of what to expect from characters and plot. But with LCU, it was all completely new, so jokes were fresh and situations were unexpected. Sure, they did a lot of homages to classic TV and movies, but it was an original IP, so we had no expectations. I love this game so much!

    My man! Another true fan of Lego City Undercover! I actually started off with the 3DS version because I drive semis and couldn't really hook up a TV in the bunk, plus the all the bumps would kill the laser alignment of the system. I did eventually get a Wii U and the proper game and loved it. I was over the moon when it was getting ported to PC. I could download it on my laptop! Since then, I have come close to logging in 800 hours in the game on Steam. I saw it as a more accessible version of GTA since rather than assaulting people to take their car you just shout, "Police business!" and they willingly get out. And I have collected all three versions of the Chase minifig even. I got the Dimensions pack, which I also love for allowing me to insert Chase into all those other worlds too. The other two I got off eBay along with both red getaway cars and the Dasher motorcycle. And I would like to note that the song used in the Lego City Undercover ad for the port was called "Electric Groove" by the band LazerHawk.
    I was pretty disappointed that Chase has been retired though. It really hurt in I think the second season of LEGO City Adventures when there was an exchange with a Lego sister city. I really thought we would see the Chase/Duke buddy cop episode we disserved. Instead, it was a British lady.
    But LEGO City Undercover has been the foundation of my concept of Lego City in general. I made a minifig of myself, as most Lego fans do. And came up with stories for him in Lego City where starts as a truck driver like me but is quickly pulled into crazy adventures after accidently being pulled into a portal. Professor Stan Leroy (my own Stan Lee kind of guy) and his assistant Sasha Fury (distant relation to Rex) were experimenting on a Vortex generator that had been unearthed decades ago under Apollo Island. It malfunctioned and accidentally pulled my guy into a dumping ground where excess stuff from throughout the multiverse ends up. While there he finds all kinds of cool stuff whisked away from other dimensions. Once he's extracted, he is made a member of the team so along with Sasha and Stan Leroy he explores the different dimensions.

  • @Person-wz6iy

    I reckon the main reason Chase is out of character in the LEGO Dimensions pack is that I didn't write his dialogue that time. Which I'd totally forgotten about, but it kinda' stings that they took all the characters I wrote and then knocked out a pack with them without any involvement from me. Or, I think, from anyone at Fusion.

    I mean, There is another good reason why it was Exclusive on Wii U.
    It's Gta but Kid Friendly. Since Nintendo is being a Family Friendly Console, The other consoles like PlayStation and Xbox had Gta but they were violence. But LEGO City Undercover feels like a Non-Violent GTA.

    Here is a bit of a follow-up comment towards my previous one that was regarding how _LEGO City Undercover_ was sadly underutilized by The LEGO Group.
    While it is a tragedy that The LEGO Group has practically abandoned _LEGO City Undercover_ and never utilized its true potential, the memories I have of the game will still continue to live on to this very day. LEGO can retire sets, themes, and concepts, but they will never be able to retire our fond memories of the things we love.
    This reminds me of how despite never owning any _LEGO Ninjago_ sets, I am still a passionate fan of the franchise even though I've only seen the amazing TV show! Even when the _Ninjago Legacy_ remake sets have been retired, the show still holds up as more of a saga than a toy advertisement, and that's what mattered to me. And the same can be said about _LEGO City Undercover._ Even if it primarily utilized retired products, reused models from previous games, and a scant amount of sets from years 2011-2013, it still encapsulates the whole appeal of _LEGO City._
    And the best part about a theme having great tie-in media like _Ninjago's_ TV Show, _The LEGO Movie,_ or _LEGO City Undercover,_ is that they can be revisited by future generations and create new memories for them, even if they cannot buy any of the sets shown of in the tie-in media. Our favorite LEGO sets and themes will retire from being sold some day, but the memories we have of them will never retire.

    This game really is an underrated gem. I remember when i was younger and the only Lego game i played was Lego Batman 1 on my PSP. I loved watching gameplays of this game, especially since i was so into Lego back then. I love watching my sets in the game and say "Hey, i have that one". I'm still into Lego, but it's mostly Star Wars nowadays

  • @jbzhummerh2gamer

    I remember seeing the commercials when this game first came & I was like "What is this nonsense?" Come 2022 I watch a video from PlayStation Access & the guy narrating that video says the words "...or any of the LEGO games, really." Referring to them being fun comfort games. I had a good paying (at the time) job & figured why not. I bought all of the LEGO games for Switch & PS4. I would only (so far anyway) regret picking up Brawls & Worlds (the latter I think I was too late to get the real experience from). I'll never forget just how lost I got into the world of City Undercover, I mean, finding things that just made exploring the world great, let alone getting to do new things.
    2 great examples:
    1. I was exploring the rooftops & found a parkour area, literally by hopping onto the first part of it. The cooler thing being that I could come back to it at any point.
    2. And this is what really made me realize just how much I was missing out on - I find a wheelchair, I approach said wheelchair, I see that I can sit in said wheelchair, & I can wheel it wherever I want to.
    All of my other games be damned in that moment, & for a while until I did finally put it down to play some of my other games. I will have to come back to it some time, as so far it's also my favorite LEGO game.

    Hey I just started playing this game recently because of this video and just wanted to say it's fantastic. One of the best lego game and open world experiences I've had.
    Also idk if this is a hot take but I lowkey think this game has the best Lego combat. Yeah there's no real threat of death obviously but I find chases Judo thows and tossing guys into eachother engaging compared to just bashing guys until they break apart in most lego games

    The quote from Matt Palmer tells me that TT can do so much better and have fun while working on games where they have complete control instead of just more licenced games that have to fit the mold. The superhero Lego games are great to me because they make stuff up on the spot that still fits within that universe, and tge same goes for Lego City Undercover, my second favorite Lego game

    I remember playing this game and having some really fond memories of it back in 2013! While I never 100% completed it as a kid, I bought the Switch version back in 2020, and managed to 100% complete it for the first time! TT Fusion did a great job at achieving the goal of trying to create a _LEGO City_ video game, where the player can engage in all of the major jobs of LEGO City. (With the undercover part being a clever way to integrate the need to commit various crimes throughout the story.)
    I also fondly remember buying the 2013 High Speed Chase Set [Set Number 60007] from LEGOLAND California on my birthday, and later playing out many stories with the Chase McCain Minifigure!
    To this day, I really do wish The LEGO Group did a lot more with the universe of _LEGO City Undercover,_ as I'd say the game helped give _LEGO City_ a more concrete identity through its narrative, just like _Bionicle,_ _Monkie Kid,_ or _Ninjago._ (The latter of which I am a huge fan of.)
    I get that the original intent of the _LEGO City_ theme is that the Sets are supposed to be generic enough for children to imagine unique stories for the characters, but having established characters like Johnny Thunder, Tahu, Lloyd, or Emmet are just as great!
    Given the common complaint about _LEGO City_ Sets nowadays being that they are too focused on action features and capturing the attention spans of children, I sort of wish that The LEGO Group had _LEGO City Undercover_ be a subtheme of _LEGO City,_ focusing more on creating action sets starring the game's established characters, thus freeing up the main _City_ sets for more ideas towards slice of life scenarios as seen in recent _LEGO Creator_ or _LEGO Friends_ sets.
