Let's Play YIIK I.V With Altrive!

[@Abyssno1dad]

Being a fan of yiik is like being a fan of Jesus before he was crucified

[@linecat]

Gonna reply to this to cement the fact

[@nickbrown638]

3 days vs 3 years.

[@lokiofasgard69]

Real

[@gutsandglory416]

as a fan of yiik before the first major games changes (aka the golden alpaca update) i can confirm

[@pantslesswrock]

One of the only good comments about YiiK

[@alexyiikintherealworld]

WE LOVE YIIK

[@fluffy9071]

we do a little yiiking

[@tunasandwich8049]

Waa lolo I loooove being in yeek

[@poof346]

Gotta say, I REALLY like the monologues transitioning to Alex in a recording booth, that’s a cool aesthetic flourish

[@notafbiagent473]

It is really good, the only issue is that with every monologue being close together that sound is going to get very annoying hearing it every 5 seconds

[@3agle280]

Everytime he looks directly into the camera in those sections I just think of him being some sort of Fnaf animatronic. Its so weird

[@ash._.es_._]

@@notafbiagent473 Yeah, I’m honestly wondering if this design choice is going to only be SLIGHTLY tolerable.

[@ninjapotatolorf6237]

It's certainly an improvement, even if the dialogue itself still has issues. (Like jeez, how is "shake, vibrating with motion" still here???)

[@Кикидук]

​@@ninjapotatolorf6237 I mean the elevator 'shaking, vibrating with motion' phrase is too iconic to be cut out, change my mind. It would be unfair to leave hardcore YIIK fans without it. Also kinda adds to Alex's pretentious character, like he's trying to make simple elevator ride as epic as possible. He is just silly like that. Our inner dialogs can be stupid and pointless when we got nothing to do but wait, I think he can be relatable in the worst ways possible. I like Alex YIIK, he's cool.

[@treerat7284]

You can say it's canon as much as you want, Ackk Studios, but we the people will show you that we do care about the kissable icon Rory Mancer

[@GrimbledorfVEVO]

I once asked in the YIIK server after a live stream (they were still taking questions) if they would add Alex Eggleston to Fortnite. They said they were open to the idea and this gives me hope one day he will get added.

[@iancortescontreras6084]

I'm cranking 90°s Michael

[@AlloyAmi]

can you send an invite

[@linguisticspaceship]

@@AlloyAmi use invite code "7nuQtH5b" or just "yiik"

[@dakota7745]

Holy shit, my dream squad of goku, kakashi, rick sanchez and alex yiik will finally be realized!!

[@frogmouth2]

They add a new mythic item that’s a record. It’s a consumable that you get 1 of and it deals one damage. You can only get it from killing the Alex NPC on the map.

[@shadowwwwwwwwwww]

i do honestly unironically love yiik

[@nosferatu3726]

Are you Yiiking out right now

[@zioness]

@@nosferatu3726 WE'RE YIIKING OUT!!!

[@djdee6386]

Yiik: A post ironic enjoyment

[@shadowwwwwwwwwww]

@@djdee6386 post-ironic just sounds like a young adult who got over theirself

[@la.fille.dautomne]

It’s so cool to see the developers not give up on their game! The original YIIk had so much potential so it’s nice to know they’re going even further with it :)

[@lokiofasgard69]

1:41:18 based as fuck. Imagine being forced to make Alex YIIK plushies in a sweatshop

[@thejonbrownshow8470]

I like the idea of Sammy and other party members joining Alex in his new monologue spaces lol

[@vomitwater]

I think Sammy being there is for a specific reason

[@marcinswiecicki6713]

Becouse Sammy and Alex, never acually met and he just red about her dissapearence and lached to it like a goddamn leach.

[@hehehefunnyname9613]

Major props for the developers for doing all this work for a free update. I only got past the mountain during the record quest but if the rest of the game is this weird and stylish

[@buddyfriendpalio]

I cant believe Michael gets a gun and a stand in the same update. bravo Vince.

[@PablarEscabo]

I’m so happy Alex Yiik has a redemption arc now

[@aaronhussey8522]

I really like all the changes they made to the game, even the small ones. Like the UI: It's offset, has a really good font, and the lines are spaced better. The run feature is also a neat addition, all good RPG's need a run feature. I think the best improvement however is the fighting system, once so bland and boring now super flashy and full of life and style (like Persona 5). I'm really glad the Allanson bros are doing better and are taking the criticism from their detractors to heart and using it to make such incredible improvement (like the aforementioned Dialog box, I distinctly remember Running Shine making a criticism about it). I wanna see this studio succeed and see that their efforts at improving their game was worth it.

[@md-fi7zt]

YIIKFREAKS CANT STOP WINNING

[@MrZetherath]

I'm quite delighted to see this. I always felt this game has a lot of potential and I listen to the soundtrack all the time. I'm impressed with the work you've done so far honestly! New combat, cut-scenes, story I really like it all!

[@thepit7868]

I'M YIIKING OUT!!! Can't wait for the update!

[@miiwii]

the music is so good and i can imagine some insane cutscene taking place where everything is falling apart and 7:02 is playing

[@kedamono6282]

Did they fix the bug were you can't kiss Rory?

[@Harmonica821]

If they don't remake Rory kissing cutscene then it's all for nothing.

[@matthewlong7547]

Can you fix perfection?

[@domii2098]

They fixed it! YIIK IS PEAK!

[@KaunaKayla]

dont you mean... PIIK????@@domii2098

[@Blazing_00]

I genuinely love YIIK

[@alphaotakux]

I'm yiiking out! This looks so good! It's the rebuild of evagelion of games!

[@perdedortotal]

38:58 HE SAID THE THING

[@MemeinAndDreamin]

I LOVE YIIK

[@nairbgolden2008]

YIIKERS EATING GOOD

[@MrGamernova]

Yiik Developers: No one cares about Rory Yiik Players: Woah! They just added a final boss!

[@broham9877]

I love how his WebCam is just so in the way for the whole stream

[@Hells_Sock]

Even though i said a lot of crap about this game online, i just thought it had a lot of untapped potential. And now seeing the game like this, i'm actually kind of hyped to play it again!

[@vincentvalentine4401]

You guys can do it! I’m rooting for you two!!!

[@unoriginalname2016]

I'm really impressed how much more polished this is than the original release

[@ResonanceRetroData]

14:38 the show starts, since it looks like nobody else has timestamped in the comments yet

[@ghilshh]

this update looks so fuckin good man

[@shockdoggo6889]

IM YIIKING OUT

[@lordvegetables]

sexual tension only 27 minutes in already an improvement over the original

[@MrZetherath]

I also like to see the conversations use their 3d model instead of the 2d illustrations.

[@jackravvit5426]

I wonder if they're going to fix the broken "Alex and Rory kissing" scene? (They passionately kiss)

[@Harmonica821]

I. Fucking. Love. YIIK.

[@MrZetherath]

I like that battle theme too. I'ts groovy

[@lingster7777]

The new battle system looks great!! I noticed that Wilhelm went into the bleed state when he still had Karta. Did Sammy get a pierce on the boss or something? Or did Wilhelm get into the bleed state because Alex used that Heart Karta?

[@treerat7284]

I think they mentioned it on stream, but Krow(might have been Sammy) hit them with a pierce attack, so their hp appeared but they weren't bleeding

[@The_Boctor]

In one reality, Alex is a Master of Ceramics.

[@palettemedley5676]

God, I remember when the game was really ragged on in the beginning for the tediously long attack animations and stuff like that as well as Alex being a self insert/bad protag and “game isn’t art” debacle. For me, it was pretty much a guilty pleasure because while the game was objectively not good gameplay wise, I still liked the game’s visuals and the writing had untapped potential that was somewhat ruined by odd timing, telling rather than showing, and the odd ending imo. It’s great to see it being improved in such a massive way and the gameplay looks much more engaging and sleek. Not sure about the writing since I’ve only seen YIIK before the massive improvements through Manly but I remember the Golden Alpaca scene being improved immensely into becoming a somewhat serious scene that didn’t ruin the tone of the current scenario. I also hope there’s accessibility options like disabling flashes or something for colorblind people since I’m liking the new UI but think it might be a bit much for some people! Only thing is that some cutscenes definitely look odd in terms of camera angles like Sammy being Taken but that can probably be fixed since it’s honestly a bit disorientating.

[@TerryVideoZone]

NO SUCH THING AS A GUILTY PLEASURE, OWN THAT SHIT

[@ashkesslet1149]

It really did show not tell tho most of the actual stuff going on isn't really being told

[@hehehefunnyname9613]

I’m actually kind of excited

[@giovanniaguilar5900]

I do love yiik though

[@beautychao7]

Wow there's a bleeding mechanic. Reminds me of Illbleed.

[@Wolfcat22]

Yeah this looks pretty based

when does it come out thoooo

[@diogomontesso6970]

This is insane, the game looks so much more alive and varied and different and unhinged, how long did this take to reconstruct?

[@alexyiik7902]

We started it shortly after we released v1.25

[@diogomontesso6970]

I haven't really been keeping up with the development up til now so I don't know exactly how long that is, but I'm guessing around 2 or so years?

[@thejonbrownshow8470]

I wish they'd give a actual date of release, but I think the game would of done much better if this was version 1.0 😅

[@OlisGarden]

is this game about to go from the worst game of all time to a masterpiece???

[@cresoma]

Is this game about to go from a masterpiece to a masterpiece^2? (the answer is yes)

i would love to watch this, really i would, if it were anyone else other than altrive. i cannot stand this.

Wait this is going deeper, he even said he didn't get the 1.5 playtest application when he signed up for it???

[@linguisticspaceship]

@@AbadabaBoy Did they say they would get one in this stream? it was a public application, anyone could sign up

[@AbadabaBoy]

@@linguisticspaceship I watched this whole stream as well and it seems like Altrive was just bought on to play the build. But was he not actually playing the build? Or was he playing this on an account that he couldn't personally use? Cuz he says in his personal stream that he wasn't given the public application "build" he signed up for which doesn't make any sense if HE'S PLAYING IT IN THIS VIDEO. My head hurts :(
