Clones and Rip-Off Games you've Probably Never Played

Download Devil May Cry: Peak Of Combat Today! app.adjust.com/181gn40k_18igsm40 What's a Clone or Rip-Off you think I should check out in the future? Lemme know here! Also HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'm gonna be moving in a matter of weeks. I've been making videos in the same place since a month into Covid and it's gonna feel weird to branch out and have a change of scenery, but I'm ready! There's a lot of fun stuff on the horizon, both in videos and my personal life and hopefully that'll come through in what we make! Big Thanks to both Portly and Joshy for assistance editing this one, they do great work on a whim for my slow-ass and I can't thank them enough. I'll catch y'all in a few weeks with another Deep Dive! Gotta do the NOW Square-Enix Quadrilogy!!

[@jadedheartsz]

Quantum Theory and the modern Medal of Honor games were pretty good IMO

[@safebox36]

I feel like the term "clone" gets used too negatively nowadays, cause some clones are more fun than their original counterparts. "Rip-off" is still accurate for some of the lazier and borderline copyright-infringing attempts, admittedly. And some clones aren't even known for being clones; like what Minecraft is to Blockland or Infiniminer, or Fortnite is to PUBG, or Angry Bird is to Crush the Castle.

Brothers in Arms is genuinely really good. Some simple squad command gameplay with light tactics. Along with the real stories it echoes. Obviously dramatized, but still feels more "authentic," if that's a fitting word, compared to other wwii shooters of the time

I was hyperfixated on Indiana Jones as a kid so I actually did play infernal machine, my dad picked the pc version up for me as a kid at kmart.

One you forgot to mention in the pikmin section is Tinykin. its not necessarily a clone of pikmin, but rather lovingly inspired by pikmin. Its a 3d platformer with 2d characters that kind of remind me of cut the rope’s art style, its short but it has a lot of charm.

Spy Fiction is beautifully bonkers. Out of the games I've played, I think the one that counts as "rip-off" potentially is The Vagrant. Basically a clone of Odin Sphere, but much stiffer.

[@ratchetpokemaster123]

The sad thing about the Indiana Jones thing being considered a clone, even if positively associated, it's partly a contributing factor to what happened to Lucasarts dropping their version of Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. Reportedly, one of the biggest demoralizers to the team involved was the announcement and release of Uncharted. Not in the sense they hated it, but in the sense that they instantly knew that they had been shown up before they could deliver. When you think about how everyone associates their past try to make a 3D game with the character was commonly and inevitably compared to Tomb Raider back in the day, they knew it would be an uphill battle for them, qnd considering the development troubles they dealt with, they decided to drop the project for the HD version, and all that was left were the versions for older systems and handhelds that they had already outsourced.

[@camharkness]

Nexalmon is a clone, but man, imo, it's pretty good. I think we need more pokemon like games. Gamefreak has gotten way too comfortable lately.

[@catantcha99]

The thing is there are so few pokemon like games because it is very difficult to make those games, like smt V and that new dragon quest monster game both run like crap and have similar issues as modern pokemon

[@camharkness]

​@@catantcha99gonna be real, even with talking about smt 5 alone, it's still weird seeing smt be considered a pokemon like, since smt started with megami tensei on the nes, had the demon companion system all the way back then, and actually predates Pokemon as a whole.

[@camharkness]

​@@catantcha99but also, there is another reason for it. Any time any game comes out with a monster catching mechanic, people instantly dogpile on it because "Pokemon rip off!!!!!!"

The Digimon games have shockingly been picking up the slack as of late. Digmon Story: Cyber Sleuth games are pretty great. I recommend getting the Switch or PC versions, as they bundle up both games & all the DLC. Digimon Survive & World: Next Order are also good, but they're not traditional mon games. The former is a visual novel with gameplay similar to Fire Emblem, while the latter is a throwback to the V-pets & first DW game. Just be warned, the translations & localisations for the games are rather spotty.

I was on a focus group/play test for road rage. I voted for a different title, i don’t remember what, but I thought road rage sounded too basic. There were like 3 or 4 other options to vote for, and road rage was the bottom pick for me. As we were playing, several others commented that it was just like crazy taxi… I’d only ever heard of the game, so I couldn’t really comment on that at the time. I remember that my friend who was working at radical at the time (my ‘in’ Yo get in this focus group) was hyped that Simpsons cast were in the office, but I don’t think he had much face time with any of them, since he was assigned to other projects. My nephew lovvved the game when he was little, and didn’t care if I’d been involved at all. Well… it was his fav game of MINE, since I didn’t have any other car games. D’oh indeed.

I was a huge fan of the Descent series of 90's PC games growing up, and it was only recently that I played Forsaken, a "clone" that was on Playstation and N64. Nightdive remastered it and honestly? It's great! To this day the "6DOF" or Descent-clone genre is still pretty niche, and there are some great clones that really get what made those games fun and expand on them on really fun ways.

I'm sorry, but I hate when people call other monster tamers "pOkEmOn RiPoFfS!" It does them such a disservice, especially when they try to do their own thing just with a similar formula. A "ripoff" implies that the game is either bad, soulless, and/or made just to make a quick buck. Things like Nexomon and Coromon *are not that.* Monster tamers are a whole genre of their own, you wouldn't call Sonic a Mario ripoff cause they're both platformers, right? At least you aren't calling stuff like SMT or Monster Sanctuary Pokémon ripoffs though, cause I've seen people unironically say that and it's as dumb as it sounds. Really, it's just how people throw around the term "ripoff" so casually without stopping to think what that actually means that annoys me. Good video otherwise, that's just always bothered me.

Man, austin, you are the last remaining bastion of feel-good, yet interesting, youtube. I grew up on normalboots and sbfp videos; one a classroom, one a home. Whenever the real-world counterparts were painful or frightening, i would watch those videos and remember i belonged somewhere. But it's been a long time since those kinds of videos were the norm, and I kinda just moved on with everybody else. Sbfp are still like big, goofy brothers to me, but they aren't "come over for dumb games and a laugh" vibes like they were. And considering a lot of normalboots have reached "creepy uncle" status, the feeling with those videos has faded too. For the last few years, I've found myself just... rewatching the things that used to feel good, hoping to feel at least a tenth of that comfort again, like an old man looking at faded photos of his past. But your videos, they make me feel like that again. I get excited when I've played the game you're talking about, and even more excited when I haven't. I laugh my ass off when I know exactly what points will be made about some game I rented for a week and couldn't beat. I feel like a kid again. So thanks man, you're killing it.
