Felvidek Review | Tactical Slovakian Action

[@Majuularcade]

Apparently "MATEJ" is pronounced "MATEY" and not "MATEJUULAR" or "MATEJSAMUNE" Gonna take a long walk off a short pier.

[@luciusmagn]

We are used to it, haha. The best approximation would prolly be MAH-TYEY, which can be difficult to pronounce

[@joearnold6881]

I can’t believe you don’t know how to pronounce the name of the most famous Slovakian katana. 🤦

[@jashloseher578]

Cringing each time you said it, haha!

[@Sm00k]

Gotta love Slavic language family >D

[@voros-adam]

@Sm00k Matej is hungarian actually

[@Interference22]

"You have acquired a Jew." Ten out of ten.

[@Brozef]

I agree with the message of this video, please buy the game

[@Majuularcade]

Thank you for agreeing with me unbiased commenter!

[@gwynbleidd1917]

Is it only on PC? I would absolutely buy it if it was on playstation ​@@Majuularcade

[@MSaint]

thank you random commenter

[@randomanonymousperson7582]

I hope Feldivek 2 is in the works

[@AcidelCyqage]

​@@randomanonymousperson7582 don't get your hopes up, Jozef is now working at Warhorse Studios.

[@PalaDave99]

I just adore how all the Hungarian swearing in the game is almost absolutely nonsensical. Much like how we actually swear irl

[@janabaloghova4736]

my only strife with this game is that non-slovak speakers will never see how truly intelligent and hilarious the writing is in its original language

[@eros439]

Felvidek’s art style reminds me of those papers or assignments they would print out in elementary schools and because of the printer and ink they would end up looking like that. Not that the game looks bad I find it quite interesting and charming but it just reminds me of that sort of thing where the pictures on papers look off with school printers

[@Sm00k]

For me it feel like Commodore era games,with all that dithering and stuff.

[@ciscornBIG]

We called those ditto machines at my Catholic school in the early-mid 90s. God alone.

[@OldyAlbert]

High effort RPG maker, GZDoom and AGS games are one of my favorite things in this world

[@kyletheidiot]

The cutscenes sort of break my heart, because I YEARN for a 3d rpg in that presentation, holy moly. Still a blast.

[@cachaçaalchemist]

This game's humor is amazing. I remember laughing out loud at the "Fortune, that i fell asleep clad in armor!"

[@Spikedude101]

Wait, they got a job at Warhorse? While a remarkable accomplishment (who doesn't want steady work and pay), it's a touch bittersweet. It's clear as day Jozef has quite the creative bone, and the thought of him just working on little more than implementation is a little heartbreaking. Here's hoping they get a chance to direct their own game with a budget and team!

[@helpgirlimhavingalifecrisis]

Given this game has sold about 50k copies on steam, it’s safe to say I think we could see him making more games in the future.

[@nicolass155]

Correction: Felvidek isnt a region in souther slovakia. It is what hungarian nationalists call the whole of slovakia, since it was a part of hungary for 1000 years. Would be like americans calling canada the 51st state (kind of)

[@Majuularcade]

Ooh, understood. I took only a passing look at information on the region for this review, and I must have misunderstood what I was seeing. Thanks for the correction!

[@NyanMango]

I think we're worth at least four states, personally.

[@joearnold6881]

@@NyanMango honestly, this American would give you four of ours. You wouldn’t thank me for which I’d pick, tho.

[@Brozef]

Both are correct actually. Felvidek is used both for entire Slovakia but also the Hungarian minority calls southern Slovakia - the part of Slovakia they live in - Felvidek

[@nicolass155]

@@Brozef Yeah but they do it to insinuate that they dont live in "szlovakia" but northern hungary no? My hungarian friend that lives near the border says it.

[@hassledvania]

This feels like what I imagine losing your goddamn mind feels like

[@Sm00k]

WELCOME TO EASTERN EUROPE, ENJOY YOUR STAY.

[@jurtheorc8117]

Zeno Clash may supply on that front as well. Has a forest full of people who simply decided to go insane and only pursue one single thing in life. Like walking in a straight line or wanting to become invisible, so you scratch out the eyes of anything that could see you.

[@GeorgeGloomy]

getting strong Disco Elysium vibes from this. Not only because of the two protagonists but especially for what you had to say about humor and tragedy being so close to each other. This looks like a very interesting game to me, great video :)

[@Davidesrajohn]

This feels like it could've been a main video channel, it was really good.

[@TalkernateHistory]

The faces have a very "Pathologic 1" vibe

[@rozkaz661]

That cutsece with throwing a bottle at that reptile monsters head sold me by itself

[@Silvarian]

2 Majuular videos in 1 week? WE ARE NOT WORTHY 🙇

[@Majuularcade]

TEMPER YOUR EXPECTATIONS

[@heyitsmort7744]

I DIDNT KNOW THWRE WAS A SECOND CHANNEL TILL RIGHT NOW

[@korinthian7313]

Just wanted to say I appreciate the effort you put into making your intro jingle sound like a vcr recorded bootleg of itself. Unironically.

[@GrimskyKorsakov]

Obsessed with the Vagrant Story/FF Tactics vibe I'm getting from this art style.

[@TheCrawl]

One of the coolest RPG Maker projects

[@fenrirlives2226]

The first RPG to star a living Shinkiro Smile as its main character. Beautiful!

[@cybercop0083]

I call them Takashi Miyamotos. But I will accept your take. Valid.

[@JustOniWorks]

I was wishing upon a star you'd give this a look, cursory or otherwise. Guess I should've aimed higher. Lottery next time.

[@Majuularcade]

I was suddenly possessed by a cosmic aura and couldn't sleep until I talked about Felvidek. Should've known it was you.

[@ruchitlajo5808]

The music in this game also goes really well, been stuck in my head for a while now

[@Cartograph176]

Will you review Brutal Orchestra?

[@ryanladuke9399]

Loving the short form reviews!

[@JaeHyunjj]

Ah, yes. Central European medieval weirdos, my favorite.

[@JoeSmoPedro]

A friend ended up recommending me this upon release cuz the monster designs were my type lol Glad to get a reminder from one of my fave KZbinrs i should absolutely get this

[@TylerJBrown192]

This is main channel worthy!!

[@AvvilGarrant]

I can't believe you found an RPG I hadn't heard of yet. This is amazing. Thank you.

[@MrRyoogi]

Another Maj video? Truly the best timeline.

[@ThommyofThenn]

More like the very worst possible timeline but the devs put in a handful of epic eastereggs to reward macocistic players

[@jaydenstrudel]

oh we eatin GOOD love your content!

[@demilembias2527]

I think the style the visuals are going for is like, the venn diagram overlap that happens to exist between the look of old CGA PC graphics and early modern-era European print engravings. Which, as an art history student and lover of unique game aesthetics is. SO COOL.

[@Soul_Tomato]

Oh my god I finally played something before Majuular. Felvidek is awesome. Loved the soundtrack.

[@rodolfocalixto5205]

incredible review, very professional!

[@ArujeiGo]

Loved this game when I played it, just a fantastic experience. Glad to see it getting attention!

[@RetroSmiles]

I really hope we get a sequel. I played through this game recently and I was thinking about it for days later. The music is amazing, the story, the low-stakes, the humour, the characters.

[@analogmoz]

I was wondering if you were going to stumble across this fine, nuanced gem.

[@filipbodnar2947]

So glad this game is doing the rounds, finally some quality material from the homeland.

[@zoricgames]

Alright, im sold

[@anjetto1]

Reviewing RPG maker games is how I discovered your channel

[@omegaXjammur]

Two Maj videos on top of a stream in a week? Well now I just feel spoiled.

[@duffelpuffelmcduff1181]

This was great. Thank you!

[@bobbywilliams2688]

Ive had this on my wish list for a while and now im sold

[@prettycody]

yeeeessss! This game is so good, thank you for covering it.

[@Ginsoakedboy21]

Great video, could totally have been on the main channel. I will check this game out.

[@TheBaca219]

14:55 The game you are looking for to compare it to is most likely Evenicle.

[@ARedMongoose]

Holy, two videos in one week? Our cups runneth over!

[@CallN0w]

well shit man you sold me with the SBCG4AP comparison

[@Scarcheeze]

Berserk 1997 but drunked

[@clokkoflokko318]

I was just thinking about playing this game!

[@LC-iw3ll]

Just beat the game tonight. Absolutely excellent 4.5 hrs well spent

[@Stefan__K]

I have added this game to my wishlist, sounds like a fun time lol

[@toiletwineconnoisseur6434]

This seems incredible!

[@fenrirlives2226]

HE SPOILS US WITH MORE GLORIOUS CONTENT!

[@TerminallyNerdy]

I love weird games like this.

[@leaphan6141]

This heavily reminds me of Pentiment, a game I really loved and enjoyed. Idk if you played it, but I highly recommend it!

[@Toxima]

last time bro talked about a rpg maker game I got entrenched in a months long obsession with fear and hunger I'm in danger

[@jesse.qua.]

Luckily this game is only 5-6 hours! :)

[@jurtheorc8117]

There's a kickstarter for a game that seemingly takes inspiration from Fear and Hunger by name of Solve et Coagula. Worth checking out.

[@ElectricBarrier]

Sounds great. I could have swore this was around for a while but it says it came out this year? Must have been an earlier version I heard about. Whatever, added to my steam wishlist.

[@EarthboundX]

Weird, I'm playing a game that sounds a lot like this one in its structure right now. It's called The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales. It's about a world where writers travel inside books to write them. So you'll be traveling into 6-7 different stories, that give the game an anthology type of feel. It also is about two characters, with a mix of comedy and drama that works. Though there's more drama than comedy, not an even mix. It's more or less a point in click adventure game, but it also has a very small amount of combat that cleary is not the focus. That's a weird coincidence. I'd recommend it, it surprised me. It'll be in Gamepass until the 15ht of June, as it's leaving soon. It's 15 dollars otherwise.

[@jurtheorc8117]

With your expressed desire at the end of this video, i'd be very curious to hear your thoughts on the Zeno Clash games. Not RPGs, but very interesting and quite unique world.

[@internetdirigible]

I've been looking at this on steam for weeks wondering if it's worth it, it definitely sounds worth it.

[@mellonbread]

I think you're giving the combat too much credit. Once you use up your tools a lot of the fights devolve into just slapping the enemy with basic attacks until you chew through their HP, especially in the early game. The lack of in-combat MP recovery is novel, but in practice just means jogging back to a shrine for a full restore in between fights. There are only a couple areas where you're forced to do multiple battles without an opportunity to refresh. Everything else you said is spot on. Kickass game.

[@MsRmart999]

Telltale's Homestar Runner after the ultima series is done?

[@EisceFX]

Inmaculate taste, Maj

[@CommandThrow]

Saw this pop up in my feed and I was like HEY SOME JERKASS STOLE MAJUULARS song!! lmfao

[@Majuularcade]

I'M THAT JERKASS!

[@Zee-bo1jb]

I feel so incredibly spoiled. 2 videos???? Life is good

[@vimbert]

Oh hell yeah best Friday

[@vimbert]

Also, damn. That one brief moment of Pavol NOT smiling... Gotta protect that smile

[@SenguMuramasa]

More Majuular content? I'm in

[@joearnold6881]

Nobody told me I was Lord of Felvidek…

[@DuskoftheTwilight]

As someone who has worked with RPG Maker before: Oh my god does this game *not* look like it was made in RPG maker. There's a lot of stellar RPG maker games on Steam that do a lot to revamp the graphics and make themselves stand out while still being easily clocked as RPG maker, this is not one of them (at least until some of those stock sound effects come into play)

[@yserareborn]

If you want a short RPG with heavy East European energy, might I suggest Fear and Hunger: Termina?

[@Yanncki64]

The game takes heavy inspiration from Hylics 1 and 2, give them a try if you haven't, they're amazing games

[@jesse.qua.]

He for sure played the 1st Hylics, he mentioned it in his RPG Maker video on his main channel, @Majuular

[@vangismail1580]

Btw Matej isn't pronounced Mat-eG, it's pronounced Mate-I

[@cybercop0083]

It‘s not mutt-edge?? But I prefer my dogs with sunglasses.

[@Stoonk]

Why was this not on the main channel?

[@XstickbuddyX]

saw golden sun and came

[@Nobbykulum]

Major Disco Elysium energy

[@MrXtr1]

Id love to watch the vid but this game is one i wish to experience blindly. So im just gonna leave a comment for the algorithm here

[@jesse.qua.]

Thank you for your service 🙏

[@alejandrosegato671]

This Game bleeds Hylics.

[@perihelion4495]

It's read "Mahtey" not "Mahtech" :)

[@joeharris5703]

Sounds a lot like Disco Elysium.

[@JewishHEAT101]

sick ass game

[@Xeno426]

Awww, no more MU/TH/ER bootup shot.

[@GmanTheTank]

I love PS1 games.

[@tomigun5180]

Slovakia only exists since 1995, so a "15th century Slovakia" in the description makes no sense. 15th century Northern Hungary would be the proper description.

[@kie2]

Yeah true but that's probably less useful for an uninformed audience. Like I don't know where Prussia was so I'd find it more useful to say the modern country that occupies that same space.
