#fps #firstpersonshooters #kickstarter #fpsdoc Support these videos at patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Well, friends, we are so close to the full release of FPS: First Person Shooter documentary by Richard Moss and David Craddock (of Romero Games). Fortunately, these generous gentlemen got me a review copy so I get to spill some of my guts to you on how good this whole 2 years in the making Kickstarter project turned out. We're talking from 1973 to the present day hitting on pretty much every major shooter and sprinkling in some fun oddities for good measure. I'm not entirely sure it's as comprehensive nor as tight as it could be and the lack of a narrator is an interesting choice but it's a promising directorial debut for Craddock with good flow, so inquire within to see if this measures up to what you expected to hear about! Features Wolfenstein, Doom, Unreal, Deus Ex, Halo, Quake, Quake 2, Quake Champions, SiN, Half-Life, Duke Nukem, Ultima Underworld, Rainbow Six, Borderlands, Bulletstorm, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, Black, and more! And we get to hear from people like John Romero, John Carmack, Adrian Carmack, Randy Pitchford, Cliff Blezinski, Gmanlives, Evan Lahti, Joseph Staten, and more!

#ghostware #hyperstrange #boomershooter Support these videos at patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Ghostware: Arena of the Dead by Daev Team and published by Hyperstrange may be one of the most cleverly self aware retro style shooters to come out in this whole craze. It apes the arena shooter multiplayer maps of Quake but against bots, the outdoor areas of an Unreal or Turok game, and weaves in a meta-narrative about what's apparently dead players brought back to life as digital ghosts to compete for a deranged benefactor's entertainment and nostalgia. But the mystery's deeper than that and grows more twisting and this is just the first episode in early access. See if this one's got what you like in a retro shooter within!

#shamelegacy #keymailer #indiegames Shame Legacy, developed by Fairyship Games & Revenant Games and published by Destructive Creations of Hatred fame, is a first person horror game focusing on stealth and puzzle elements. It's clearly indebted to Red Barrels' Outlast series, from its chase scenes, simple stealth, environmental interactions, and its whacky story, but is it anywhere near as good as that series is at its best or a microcosm of how bad the series can get like Outlast 2? Find out within! Disclosure: I received a free review copy of this product from https://keymailer.co Special thanks to Sotoyoto, who provided the backing tracks for this video. https://sotoyoto.bandcamp.com/

#chopgoblins #davidszymanski #keymailer SUPPORT ME HERE! -https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Disclosure: I received a free review copy of this product from https://keymailer.co Well, peeps, I expected that Dusk by David Szymanski would be the first game of his I'd review on this channel but nope, it's gonna be his microshooter called Chop Goblins! Sporting classic fast-pased shooting with some simple but pleasing level design, we get what can only be called the fast food of gaming: something snack sized to fill you up when you just want something small and digestable to tide you over! But is it worth the $5 buy in? Find out within! Special thanks to @duskdev for the review code through Keymailer! And special thanks to Youtube for not being able to provide me any instrumental for Dana Carvey's classic SNL skit song "The Lady I Know," more commonly known as "Choppin' Broccoli." How am I supposed to do a terrible parody song with no instrumental track to sing over? The audacity!

#ultimaonline #lookingglass #roleplayinggames Take a walk with me down memory lane as we review and nostalgize Ultima Underworld II: Labyrinth of World by Looking Glass Studios, the 1993 follow up to Ultima Underworld, the 1992 breakout hit action rpg immersive sim thingie . Paul Neurath, Doug Church, and Warren Spector all return to try and top their previous game, but as the scope grew and the worlds became more fantastical, I had to ask: was it all too much? To find out, inquire within! Introduction Shall It PROFIT A MAN IF HE GAIN (A LABYRINTH OF) WORLDS BUT LOSE HIS (DARK) SOUL?

Speaking of Rat Tower , you should absolutely go wishlist his upcoming RPG called Monomyth that’s heavily inspired by the Ultima Underworld games among others and promises a fairly detailed and hardcore RPG experience that you can play the demo for now! Special thanks to Sir Cabirus’ walkthrough for this game as well that keep me going even when the going got tough (most of the time anyway).

#farcry6 #ubisoft #ubisofttoronto Well, it took me a year to get to it and I had to battle through some COVID induced throat dryness to record the script but here we are at Far Cry 6 at last. The game was poised to be the biggest game in the series with the best graphics and all the features and environmental lushness from Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4, and Far Cry 5. Lead writer Naveed Khavari worked on 5 and Far Cry Primal so you think he'd know his way around the series, but what we get is a melodramatic, often cringey story unbefitting the grit of the series and the talents of Giancarlo Esposito, and some gameplay that feels weirdly great and terrible at the same time. Missions structures vary from pretty good to totally dated and this is the most technically unsound Far Cry I've played. But is that enough to unseat it from its lofty perch? 0:00 Super Fly Intro 3:19 -Development Backstory 5:50 Story Analysis 14:40 Spoiler Break 15:44 Story Analysis Cont. 16:22 World Design and How You Traverse It 17:45 Quality of Life Stuff 18:55 Combat - Gunfeel, Enemy AI, etc 21:36 New Weapon Types: Devolvers and Supremos 22:35 Amigos 23:15 Mission Types 27:40 Technical Issues 28:12 Parting Shots RESOURCES https://www.techradar.com/news/far-cry-6s-narrative-director-talks-representation-revolution-and-a-return-of-gay-frogs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45IIhctv_GI - @jekavactv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCQONaZpGY0 - @kennyhdgamingnocommentary2231 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqnJxpxW0W4 - @noctober https://www.verbaltovisual.com/mediocre/- mediocrity sketchnoting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckOhlNZ1yqY - @MKIceAndFire https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C11XVSFiyq4 - @TheDoccyDarko https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHBDe8GfqGs - @ClaudeGnome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BU12vjvYgJU - @XakonGaming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ORff-q3Glw - @NghiaEric https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6R4YGoOYx4 - @kenny hd gaming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fB04p0ynlTY - @RajmanGamingHD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5tjJTSQen4 - @XStationGameboy "https://www.vecteezy.com/free-vector/cute-little-baby" Cute Little Baby Vectors by Vecteezy

#aliensfireteamelite #coldironstudios #aliengames SUPPORT THE CHANNEL! - https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Well, it's been a minute since we had a new Aliens game and despite as many good ones as we've had like Alien: Isolation, the Aliens vs. Predator series, and Aliens: Colonial Marines (I kid, but hey, it wasn't that bad), there's also a twinge of paranoia in the air whenever a new adaptation gets announced. And when new developer Cold Iron Studios was said to be at the helm, it was enough to raise my eyebrow as well. Fortunately, it's mostly good news with only a couple caveats but watch on to see if those caveats are a deal-breaker for you!

#midnightfightexpress #humblegames #gamepass SUPPORT THE CHANNEL HERE! - https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium It's not everyday you find a good brawler or beat 'em up, much less a good indie one, and much less one primarily designed by one man. In the case of Midnight Fight Express (published by Humble Games), that one man was Jacob Dzwinel, who came up with the story, prototyped many of the animations by hand, and did level design. He eventually enlisted the help of popular motion capture artist Eric Jacobus (most famously known for mocapping Kratos in Sony's God of War 2018 and God of War: Ragnarok), had Adam Miller pen a script from his story idea, and employed Noisecream to pump 45 tracks of darksynth goodness. But does this game manage to avoid the pitfalls of the often repetitive and played out genre?

#scorngame #ebbsoftware #survivalhorrorgaming SUPPORT THE CHANNEL IF YOU CAN! - https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium The scariest month of 2022 finally yielded the first-person shooter survival horror game Scorn from Serbian developer Ebb Software, a full 8 years after the project's announcement. It bears all the characteristics of eurojank like Inner Chains by Telepaths Tree, Agony by Madmind Studio, Lust for Darkness and Lust from Beyond by Movie Games Lunarium, Tormentum - Dark Sorrow by OhNoo Games, etc: a body horror art style influenced by H.R. Giger and Zdzislaw Beksinski, bioorganic weapons and environments, and walking sim gameplay style with frequent gross puzzles.

#sable #shedworks #rawfury SUPPORT ME HERE IF YOU CAN! THANKS! - https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Sable is an open world exploration and puzzle game developed by Shedworks and published by Raw Fury and released in 2021. It also recently left Gamepass where I spent my time on it. That same time I was working a demanding job after being out of work for 2.5 months, and this new job felt like a rehash of all the things I hated from my previous three jobs. It didn't go well but Sable swooped in like a hoverbike and put the final nail in the coffin, teaching me the value of work and a couple other lessons too. Check it out!

#aloneinthedark #returntoderceto #thqnordic #survivalhorrorgaming YOU CAN SUPPORT THE CHANNEL HERE! -https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Everyone's heard of Resident Evil and Silent Hill but surprisingly few know how much of their design and atmosphere they owe to Alone in the Dark, a somewhat obscure series that started in 1992 by the visionary designer Frederick Raynal at French developer Infogrames.

#youaregrounded #horrorgames #sepiagames SUPPORT ME HERE IF YOU CAN! THANKS! - https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium You Are Grounded is a first person post-horror game where you play as a boy trapped in a basement by your abusive alcoholic father. There's no reason to assume a game about child abuse could be fun and yet indie Spanish developer Sepia Games has managed to tackle tough subject matter with heart and sympathy while providing fun physics based puzzle gameplay too. It's a delicate balance and it's pulled off artfully. There are even multiple endings that can be hopeful or despairing depending on your choice, all contributing to a poignant message about said abuse, trauma, and feelings of revenge. I went from revulsion to catharsis after giving this one a chance so give a watch to find out why! Special thanks to @Shh'Kotsky for making my thumbnail very fast at the last minute!

Hailing from Wales Interactive and designed in the vein of the Silent Hills demo P.T. by Kojima Productions, Don't Knock Twice is a first person psychological horror game starring sculptor and recovering drug addict Jessica Webb-Thomas trying to get her life on track by kicking the drugs and reestablishing a relationship with her daughter.

At first I thought it was going to be an intensely realistic, gritty game about war from children's perspective. In a way, it still is, but man, was there far more fantastical and horrific places the game would go to than its ads initially suggested. In short, the game was one of the best surprises I've ever received. Watch to find out why this is the best Sony exclusive game that Sony never actually made!

It's one of the most unique games I've ever played and also one of the best: it's a roleplaying game with immersive sim and first person shooter elements as well as some exploration and multi-level traversal. If that all sounds like Greek to you, it's like if you took the gameplay elements from the Elder Scrolls series like Oblivion or Skyrim (which this game started out as a mod for) but just emphasized the writing and mystery story.

Unlike most other zombie games like Dead Island, Dead Rising, Dead Space, Call of Duty Zombies, and Red Ded Redemption: Undead Nightmare, State of Decay focuses on more than just the adrenaline rush of combat. The game requires that you that you scavenge for supplies and manage resources, upgrade your base of operations, and keep your survivors mentally and physically healthy. So given all the updates the series has now received, was this promise of depth within the overcrowded zombie genre actually fulfilled? Did State of Decay 2 adequately improve upon the foundation and earn its fanbase of millions and millions of players?

They're both visually striking religious horror experiences drawing on rich Romanian culture and folklore, including beautiful iconography, mysticism, and alchemy.

#kingdomofthedead #indie #dirigogames SUPPORT THE CHANNEL HERE: https://www.patreon.com/highfunctioningmedium Kingdom of the Dead is a 2022 action horror first person shooter by Dirigo Games, previously known for Depths of Fear, Syscrusher, Stowaway on itch.io and Reactor in the Dread X Collection. It's fortunately not just another boomer shooter. Its real draw (haha) is its unique pen and ink art style where the textures are handdrawn and then scanned into the game as 3d environments.
