Should Daemon have looked up how to pronounce "Fortesque" before he did the VO? Yeah, that would've been prudent. All I'm calling out is the idea that because Daemon got the name wrong, Travis must've not played the game. Which doesn't follow, because Daemon getting the name wrong only proves that Daemon didn't play the game, which doesn't matter because it wasn't Daemon's job to review the game to begin with.

I started playing this game because I had a free trial of PSNOW and I fondly remember playing the demo from a Jampack Promo disc I had when I owned a PS1. Immediately I noticed how this game didn’t hold your hand, there was no difficulty selection, no checkpoints, which at first I found frustrating but began to admire because they don’t make games like this anymore. It’s a relatively short game compared to today’s 20-50 hour AAA games. I can see why this game is a cult classic from a much simpler time.

I thought this remake was fantastic, charming, funny, colourful and the gameplay was simple and sweet, I never got bored. There was some challenge without it being a pain as for the levels I loved that they were so small it made going through them again fun and learning them wasn't difficult. Combat was enjoyable as I had different ways of dealing with each enemy and I always wanted to try to new weapons. The only downside was I can't go back to the hall of heroes just to look around I wish it was an extra level just to explore

This guy has gotta be one of the worst reviewers at IGN, Sir Daniel Fortesque is a PlayStation legend and his name is echoed throughout the game and this guy still pronounces it wrong... how hard is it to parrot a name? Upset because each level doesn't have a checkpoint every 5 minutes... games used to boot you back to the start of the game at a game over... nevermind the start of the level, this guy needs to start playing his games on the normal difficulty and not on easy mode. Games are meant to be difficult IGN they are meant to test you, if the game respawned you at a checkpoint right at the start of a boss battle with all your health and weapons, of course, you will beat the boss that's why it doesn't do that... you're meant to use your vast arsenal of weapons to plan and strategize against the level, not just run-in with the default weapon mashing squire. (Also why would you get to the end of the level and then turn back looking for secrets, when you could finish the level and then reenter it and then look for secrets, in some levels you have to do that, I bet this reviewer didn't even know you could reenter levels... what a muppet) I can't prove this but, listening to this review from the way he butchers the main protagonist's name and most of his complaints being him dying a lot and starting back at the level, I think he played this game for around 3 hours kept dying on one particular level (Propley because he just ran into a bunch of enemies mashing squire) got upset and just stopped playing and then cobbled this review up and got someone else to record the footage.

Can't pronounce Fortesque's name correctly and then says the game is too punishing and hard but is using the ax on hordes which only attacks vertically. Maybe if you enhanced your Broad Sword for hordes and strong enemies and gathered health from previous levels you wouldn't receive game overs. This is why I like older games like Spyro, Crash, and Medievil. They made you "Git Gud" when you ran out of health or lives and you had to redo whole sections/levels.
