      @@invisanon god yeah
      Baba is You is one of the most interesting and unique games I've ever seen so I bought it even if I wasn't gonna be good at it, to show the guy who made it some support. But damn I didn't realise quite how bad I'd be at it. I think I've solved about 2 problems without looking up the solution for at least some of it. Like sometimes I'll just watch the first few moves to give me a clue and it'll always be an "ohhhh I didn't know you could do that". The game really blows and bends you mind with that. But it means it's unlike any other puzzle game, any experience you have with other puzzle games is useless in baba is you.
      Really it's more like a game of interactive riddles. The riddles being the semantic kind. Like if two guys are in a boat but lost their matches to light their cigarettes, how do they light them? They throw a cigarette out of the boat, to make it a cigarette lighter. Like that is the kind of thinking you have to use, thinking that humans aren't very good at because it's not about reality, it has no use in reality so it's not something we evolved to have, it's just all these little riddles that make no sense except in the context of it being a riddle and words having more than one meaning. In the real world the boat doesn't turn into a cigarette lighter. The solutions in baba is you seem so simple in retrospect but half the time you didn't even realise that was something the game would let you even do, as it seems to block a lot of things that actually would work and solve the puzzle in favour of "no, there's only one solution, you can't come up with your own, try again"

    Watching this made me realize I actually wouldn't mind having physical strategy guides again- not for walkthroughs, but for convenient at-a-glance information all laid out in one place. Stuff like Pokémon movesets, values and rarity in Animal Crossing, etc. Like if I could crack open a book to check on what every Fire Emblem: Three Houses character's favorite tea is instead of looking it up on a badly-formatted and/or ad-ridden website every time, that would be a thousand times better.

      I just got 'Nam flashbacks from some point and click adventure games... You know the ones - you need to get a key from a drain but instead of just, you know, getting a screwdriver to pop the filter grate off, you have to ... *deep breath*
      -Find a length of string, but you don't know where to find any and simply buying some thread from the fabric store is too pedestrian.
      --You go back to your home and search everything looking for a string. You give up and wander around town for a bit.
      ---You end up at the barber shop and find a discarded hairbrush with lots of wadded up hair in it.
      ----You figure out, by accident, that you can take the hair off the brush and twist it into a long string.
      -You go back to the grate and are told you need to attach a hook to the end of the string.
      --You go to the fishing docks to look for a fish hook.
      ---You can't find one for sale anywhere so you wander the docks, lost in confusion.
      ----You find yourself in a part of the docks that you never knew existed where there's a dead fish on the ground.
      -----You pick up the dead fish and realize there's a fish hook lodged in its mouth.
      ------You can't get it out, so you take the fish with you and ask everyone you can interact with about getting the hook out with no success.
      -------You take the dead fish home and try to cut the hook out with a kitchen knife, no success.
      --------You use everything you can think of to get the hook out but nothing works.
      ---------Out of sheer desperation you use the dead fish with the kitchen sink, your character puts the fish in the disposal and retrieved the dented fish hook.
      -You try to use the dented fish hook with the string of hair, it doesn't work. You're told to straighten the dented fish hook first.
      --You go back to the docks, one guy offers to straighten it but won't do it unless you bring him a jar of ground fish paste.
      ---You go back home, use an empty jar on the sink and get a jar of ground fish paste.
      ----You go back to the dock and the guy straightens the hook.
      -----You combine the hook with the string of hair.
      -You go back to the grate and try once again to retrieve the key but the hair isn't long enough.
      --You look everywhere for something to make the string longer and find nothing.
      ---In frustration, you look up the solution online and find out you need to attach a kitchen magnet from your character's fridge to the end of the fish hook on a string to make the key come closer so you can grab it with your fingers.
      ----You wonder how you were supposed to think to use the magnet in the first place when you've had a screwdriver in your inventory since the first puzzle and why couldn't you just use the damn screwdriver to pop the grate off in the first place, stupid developers!!!!

      @@PlayerZeroStart I know, younger generations tend to prefer those. But I think it's related to how difficult is for you to read and write. For people that have learned to write and read really fast, and searching information efficiently, there is no colour. The video is usually slow and tedious and it's hard to look for specific points, you need to watch it first to understand the structure. And even then, there's not that much information.
      In guides or even forums it's much faster to look for specific points. There are bad guides, that's right, but even then it's your skill to make a good search what makes the cut in the end.

      Heavily depends on how it's written. I've tried written texts and videos. If the text is short and onto the point, it's quicker than a video. But if it's a longer walkthrough, or worse, when the text just ignores to mention some things, a video is much quicker.

    • @Alfonso88279
      @Alfonso88279 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Liggliluff If it was handwritten I would agree with you. But with the search feature on computers, it takes less than 10 seconds to know if the guide has the content that you need. If the guide is divided among different pages (something that Nintendo likes to do for some reason), then you have two options. Look for another guide, and it's easier than ever thanks to sites like gamefaqs, or look thoroughly. When the guide is divided in pages, everything is usually better tagged.
      Again, it comes to how good you are when it comes to look for information. Watching videos requires less thinking and less skills but it's far less efficient.

    10:10 - You saying this reminded me... Prima's strategy guide for Wind Waker included a guide for Ocarina of Time in the back.
    The whole thing. All of OoT, in about 13 pages. It's _extremely_ condensed, covering ONLY what you need to beat the game and any incidental collectibles that happen to be in dungeons, featuring no elaboration on anything and the maps are as barebones as possible, and yet... the incredibly basic point-to-point guide is exactly what helped me beat OoT for the first time.
    It was actually sick, because the super simple descriptions that just point to certain areas and say "hit switch," "defeat miniboss and head downstairs," "hover boots to go through wall" were kind of a fun way to sort of meet the guide halfway on figuring a lot of things out, rather than making me feel like I was told EXACTLY how to do everything.

    When I was in elementary I used to love collecting game guides mainly from Nintendo games because of the artwork they had. Looking back at it now I probably looked like a dork reading the game guide to majoras mask in class during breaks but 10/10 would do again

    I love walkthroughs and strategy guides. Not so much because they give me the answers, but because they explain things as you go along about the world and the characters, and in the end of the day it's like reading a book about the videogame at the same time. It's made me feel a closer connection to a lot of games than I would have otherwise. And the best thing is that it will take you through every part of the game, so you always see 100% of everything and understand what it is.

    Now a helpful tip for people writing online walkthroughs: Being concise is overrated. People love it when your all text walkthrough has the title of the game spelled out with _ / \ @ and | taking up more space than the scroll wheel allows you to get past in a single swipe. Also make sure to have a big fat table of contents despite you not including any links. Make sure to repeat terms ad nauseum that people may be typing after they hit ctrl+f. This will ensure people can read fhe walkthrough in its entirety up to the specific problem theyre looking for help on, and thus admire the hard work you put into your walkthrough

    My favorite thing about online text walkthroughs is when you scroll slightly too far while looking for the part you're stuck on and it just casually drops a major spoiler.
    My second favorite part is when they assume you've been following along word for word the entire game and says something like, "Remember what I said earlier? Do that again," and then I have to go find that part.
    My third favorite thing is when I look up the guide because I can't figure out how to do a puzzle or beat a boss, and the guide's advice for that part is just, "Solve the puzzle/beat the boss and then watch the cutscene where Bob dies."

    In my Super Mario Galaxy 2 guide, one of the green stars in Clockwork Ruins Galaxy is in a completely different location, and there’s even a screenshot of the game with the star in its old position!
