Not giving enough credit to the British team who did this. You said it was Canon's "European" branch. Not really clear.

EA isn’t just bad for the gaming industry, they might be the worst thing that ever happened to it

Another EA victim

Nowadays the engine is the shit unreal 5 and the goty is the astrobot, what a shit generation. I would prefer to play the ET from Atari than playing astrobot, at least the ET game attracts my curiosity

EA ruin everything they touch

God EA sucks. LOL.

EA gonna EA

kinda whacky that a software that pretty directly had such a huge impact on my young life directly hailed from my own home town lol. The fact that it impacted my life to the point I became a game developer myself is so cool.

And people complain that Unreal Engine is too much widespread.

Another force major in the industry that was killed by EA

Unreal Engine took over colleges like Photoshop did.

Great video

so this was ue4 before ue4 lol

i saw persona i clicked

the draught wasnt finally over :(

Thats a huge what if with EA at the helm

cell was used in Blade server , Video processing card like the one from Leadtek , was used in Home cinema ( Toshiba Cell Regza set-top box) and tv's made by toshiba also the later produced Toshiba produced a laptop using cell '' Qosmio G55 '' etc

Nvidia save the 3D world

And people say all companies used to develop their own engines

"And by mid 2004, Electronic Arts bought the company" Yup! No need to say more. If EA buys a company, needless to say that company's days are probably numbered.

Burnout we all remember 😢

Shout-out to companies that use their own engine so they don't need to depend on the blurry mess and stuttering fest that is UE5. Capcom with the RE Engine, RGG Studio with the Dragon Engine, Santa Monica Studio with the God of War Engine, and more. Would include FromSoftware and their PhyreEngine but all the games they make are always unoptimized, and at this point that is part of what makes their games unique lol

3:45 that answers your first question , well it could have been worse microsoft buying it 😂

not surprised that EA ruined it, they kinda ruin everything

Thank for disliking EA even more. As it wasn't enough before that insight 🤮

Honestly I fucking hate RenderWare. Almost every single game developed in it is in legal limbo. Fuck the devs of it for locking so many games away.

EA and their frostbite project have been a blight upon all of computing

this engine is also what made the ps2 what it is today, way better then unreal blur 5 or any unreal trash

I hate ea now

I would go to Fun City in Central Mall to play Death Race in the late 1970s and 80s. I guess some munincipalities in California banned it somehow but we had it here in the Bible belt.

Unity is the Renderwere of the 2010s to 2020 Now unreal engine 5 is the new renderwere

Half Life 1 & 2 in renderware would look amazing. I never liked the way source handled explosions back then, as well as other vfx. I'd even go as far as to say PC textures were 1:1 with consoles, the difference being PCs had hard drives and could allow for bigger games with more special fx thrown in.

6:30 the Sixaxis motion controls didn't go away. They just added rumble to the controllers. I remember using the sixaxis controls alot in LittleBigPlanet 1 and 2. i also remember Killzone 3 having sixaxis controls as well. And that game and LBP2 came out in 2011.

I had this on the BBC Master, never figured out how to save the game though

Can u make ps vita games with render ware in 2024\

So basically EA f'd up again by ruining a game engine that already had a solid ground in the industry

Hugely not a fan of this channel's decision to have all the quotes read by a single woman, when almost all the quoted people are men, and numerous different ones, and the woman's not nearly as talented a voice performer as the video's narrator. One or two of those issues I could forgive; all of them together really hurts the work.

The moral of the story is, if you're a big giant company with controlling interest in a project, and you keep screwing with it because you're afraid it might fail, you're probably going to make it fail. Investing in a production house and then meddling with them is like planting seeds and then repeatedly digging them up to soak them in water overnight because you're afraid it might not rain enough for the seeds to sprout. Just accept that things are out of your hands and back off; you're no more or less likely to make money, but you won't waste your time and you won't piss off everyone you ever work with again.

Ever since I started playing Bloodlines in September, I've been mentally comparing and contrasting it with Fallout 3, which I started playing in August of 2003, and within about a month it had become my favorite game of all time (a title never previously claimed by any of my several earlier favorites, among whom Diablo 2 and Final Fantasy V were probably the leading candidates, but both too obviously flawed to merit the championship). It's very curious that the makers of Fallout, having gone on to found a new studio, and the studio that bought the rights to Fallout and adapted their existing Elder Scrolls game engine to it, would both independently come up with such extremely similar styles of game. Vampire doesn't have the immense catalog of various items with which to decorate your character's house, and FO3 doesn't have the ability to throw a random object as a distraction to make a guard leave his post, but the games are still extremely comparable to each other in the general way they handle an immersive western RPG in a 3D environment with both 1st and 3rd player character controls. Weird how two utterly separate paths would run so parallel.

I think so many game projects end up where 'Vulcan Fury' did, but not many are as a big as a Duke Nukem or a Star Trek. Their high profile means when they get stuck in the delay/delay/delay/canceled black hole, it becomes more noteworthy than when it happens to a multitude of smaller titles. Another Star Trek game that was famously announced (complete with screenshots in magazines) and then quietly abandoned was a Star Trek First Contact FPS by Microprose that was going to use the Unreal game engine. They released one called Klingon Honor Guard, but the one based on the popular movie never turned up.

I'm back yet again and have to say, yet again, how much i love this video. What a bummer that we'll never get to play this game.

I played at release and while it was a mess it was still absolutely incredible in so many ways and as noted it has only gotten better since and I hope 2 can capture some of what made this game so special.

I like to think Bloodlines follows the path of a kindred, albeit unintentionally. It died, but the Embrace worked. It was bugged, but Diablerie kept upgrading its Generation. All to become an icon of great game design on paper, or you could say, the equivalent of an RPG Antideluvian. Yeah, I was just reaching tbh.

I have enjoyed most of the series. My first exposure was MM2 on the Amiga, but my favorite was MM6 which was excellent. Thank you for making this video!

BLOODLINES is a real masterpiece ! And a french esoteric detective novel (called "la murene aux dents longues") describes a mysterious Dancing named BLOODLINES. Beautiful tribute to The Masquerade II . . .

Bean counters ruin everything

very well presented, thank you

this video is art, just like the game

beautissimo

I just reinstalled it, RTX remaster is currently being made, The game is still very undead.
