Limmy Plays HAROLD HALIBUT

[@uncomfortablecrocs]

Wow cant believe they individually animated each frame of this game. Real stop motion.

[@chinmail]

A heartwarming story with hypnotic visuals, fun puzzles and fantastically quirky characters beautifully animated through stop motion makes Harold Halibut the catch of the day.

I did pre warn him it was wank

[@roarbertbearatheon8565]

"can I have some game with my film" pretty well sums it up

[@owenthomas9863]

amazing stop motion

[@DanielThureskog]

Via motion-capture.

Impressive that this game is stock motion 👏🏼

I really like the look of this

[@TehCream]

Did you guys know this game is stop motion

[@lesblack8996]

No I hadn't heard 😆

[@LukeTG1_TTV]

At 3:14 you can see the light leave his eyes 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jackbennett2269]

I love stop motion so i think ill love this!

[@Weyk47]

Its not stop motion. Its all motion capture. They just 3d scanned a bunch of clay models.

4:19 - the voice actor seems to be going too far into "the big tall guy who drove the small car in the Simpsons" voice.

[@danderson8463]

I'll reserve judgment until I've played it for 3 minutes

[@ashwanibhola3766]

Thank cod he binned it.

[@purefoldnz3070]

3:52 that would be Sekiro.

[@hambeef420]

i dont think ill ever get used to that...

[@rso823]

the game took 14 years to make and the dialog is as dull as talking to a coworker on a slow day why does anyone want to play this

[@user-ws6nu4mq8k]

Some company with proper ideas should hire the people who did the visuals. They’re genuinely excellent beside the pile of boredom.

[@purefoldnz3070]

what controller is that? It looks very off-off brand

[@taglor]

Harold Habitat is well done but let's face it the people are weird in an Eraserhead way. I'm too old now to feel weird sick and pretend it's cool. I'm going to play Fortnite and lose to some 4 year olds but at least it has pretty colours.

[@tactictoe]

More like slow-motion

[@jillsandwitch67]

he loves playing games he knows he'll hate just to moan about them

[@user-tt7ds6oo4b]

Well, it makes a stream meaningful if anything, it's an additional layer to it, one that can work as a short clip here.. Otherwise you're absolutely braindead if you tune in to watch someone play a game.

[@venuswilliamsinfurs]

All the characters were unlikeable/awful, especially Harold. And he moves at a GLACIAL pace despite the lengths you need to walk.

[@DustyRagu]

The staging and blocking are fantastic. Shot, reverse shot, shot reverse shot. Static image. Shot, reverse shot. Not trying to be too big a dick here but why do all interactive movies refuse to use the VISUAL parts of film. Especially when all they do is obsess over making everything "cinematic". Im tired of hearing characters talk to themselves about talking to other people? You could at least trust me to do that much right? I still wanna play this but dear lord naughty dog and walking sims heralded a horrible precedent for what story in games should be.

[@AdamGiaIsMetal]

Man you are so right. I dream of the day this type of shit is passé in video game storytelling. You can convey so much more story through just the environment then with this type of character dialogue/interaction.

[@DustyRagu]

@@AdamGiaIsMetal exactly, through gameplay, the environment, hell even item descriptions as souls games have shown. its just so strange they never make characters move while talking or have them do anything at all, instead they just stand in front of each other like in this. at least naughty dog and metal gear go full on film and have their actors move around and do things. not a fan of copying movies in games but at least they understand movies better than stuff like this does.

[@sheepboy6710]

He won 2 BAFTAs* don't you know

[@loppy6481]

bin it

[@freelance_commie]

Every voice in this game washed over me and I retained nothing. People and a world I didn’t want to be in or with. For me, thats a bad way to start a game. Every voice and piece of dialogue was like an ironic take on what voices and dialogue should not be.

[@fromthedumpstertothegrave3689]

I was shocked at how unfunny and utterly lacking in charm this game was. It seemed to answer the question "What if Douglas Adams was shit?"

[@freelance_commie]

@@fromthedumpstertothegrave3689lol that’s a great way to put it wow. It does sound like the hitchhiker’s audiobooks.

[@Shenanigan5]

He didn't bin it as quick as I thought he would! Calling this a "game" is false advertising.

[@DM-kv9kj]

How can you tell when people have come up with a cheap title first and then tried to make some "content" to fit the title they think is so good... 🙄

[@RustyBanner]

To be fair, this game does look absolutely shite.

[@garbeal2397]

Took me approximately 5 minutes to be bored as fuck of this game.

I'm convinced anyone who says this checked out of actually playing anything years ago and are just bitter about their lack of free time as an adult.

[@verdadero5290]

They really are. Seems like you need to get your nuts chopped off to enjoy these "games"

[@Avengerie]

⁠​⁠@@librarygary1618 they are not mutually exclusive. Reading the reactions to the KCD2 announcement l learned that one of my favorite things about the game (playing on hardcore without map markers and HUD, getting lost in the environment and trying to find a way to your objective by locating the geographic landmarks on the map) was apparently one of the most hated features that people want to see “fixed” in the sequel. Video games as a medium and specific genres in particular have been very stale for a while now. Same LMB spam/combat roll action, same “random Tolkien generator” lore (DD, DS, ER, Sekiro). There are only a handful of upcoming games trying to push the envelope (Manor Lords - RTS realism, Unrecord - FPS immersion).

[@uncomfortablecrocs]

It's not a game it's stop motion
