OneShot: World Machine Edition - Announcement Trailer - Nintendo Switch

[@chaoticsky]

Don't read anything about this game if you've never played it before and you still plan on it. This game is a masterpiece best enjoyed on a clean spoiler-free playthrough.

[@nouille3928]

Yeah!!

[@ChikuTenebresRattus]

The only reason i know of this game is because of one image of one character, and that sold me enough to give it a chance 🐀 Should've watched like a minute in, and its Niko. Thats how little I know, yet am curious about.

[@toastercannibalism188]

I’ve seen very mixed feelings on it. I’m torn on whether or not I should play it

[@chaoticsky]

@@toastercannibalism188 guess the only thing to do is try it and decide for yourself

[@Diaisdumb]

@@toastercannibalism188 it doesn't take a long time to complete it, nor are there many achievements but the experience is very unique. The ost is great and sets the right moods. I highly recommend giving it a try. I don't like puzzle games but this game is one of my favorites of all time.

[@johantitulaer1052]

This game is THE perfect example of how passion creates a great experience, not budget or insane game development skills. I'd recommend this game over a vast majority of AAA games.

As someone who has done everything you can in OneShot, I’m so excited to see other people playing such a wonderful game. I will admit, yeah PC feels like the best experience, but I like the nice backgrounds and other stuff that come with the fake desktop! I’d say it’s a nice trade-off!

[@breadbybread]

Never played. Heard it's kinda similar to Undertale with a dash of DDLC. Should I play?

[@joramwubs7382]

@@breadbybread Yes, if you have access to a pc or laptop that would be the preferable way to play though. Its's kind of like Undertale as in 4th wall breaking, but it has no battle system. Still an amazing game through and through.

I played this game back when the solstice update wasn't even available yet. It's such a hidden gem and more people need to experience it. I'm glad it's coming to switch. It's a good buy for anyone looking to play a new game.

[@FactswithKat]

Honestly it’ll be so cool if they do it again, by activating the timer yet again

[@Duelkitten]

I was wondering how they would emulate the meta-desktop stuff the game has, and this trailer answered it perfectly!

Hi, if you are watching this trailer now unsure of what Oneshot is or if you should play it, heed my advice. This is a must-play. This is one of the best video game experiences I've ever had and it's truly a once in a lifetime kind of game. If you have not played this game, I'm begging you to give it a try.

[@astronauteer1215]

Don't beg like it's going to kill you if no one plays it because not many people like this type of game. I've seen a "Vtuber" play this before but she got bored later on and she skips many dialogue. Not many people enjoy story driven puzzle games like Oneshot. Not like Undertale that has enjoyable gameplay. So let's just enjoy the game without worrying it not being popular.

[@8bitraee]

Hoping this gives more exposure to this incredible game

[@The_Blazelighter]

Wow, this really is it's own seperate edition. It looks like they'll be working the console into the narrative rather than just making a fake desktop and calling it a day. The new additions (like the wallpapers and bios) might even make this the definitive version of Oneshot.

I remember playing this back in August 2021, and it became one of my all-time favorites. Would erase my memory to replay this. For the best experience, don't look for anything about this game on the internet. It's best experienced on PC, although if you want to break the immersion and get this version first it's still a great game.

[@rexhex3700]

The more people play Oneshot the better!

[@TheMajesticMrL]

I discovered this game back in October of last year. Within just a few weeks of playing and finishing it, it became my second favorite game of all time. Everything about it is immensely well done. I have _never_ had a game get me so attached to a character as Niko. I've been waiting for the console release since it got announced back in December.

[@Mnemoniforma9.00]

This was fun. I'm really glad the Switch userbase is getting this deep cut. It's very cute, but also melancholy and unsettling enough to stimulate the mind without throwing horror and jumpscares at you and the pixel art for the scenery is top of the heap when it comes to the last decade of indie games.

[@maxaroni39]

This is one of my favourite games, it has incredible meta aspects and some very loveable characters! I cannot wait to replay it and cry all over again the way I did with the PC version :')

[@dizbro]

the fact they managed to incorporate the aspect of finding or changing files on your machine into a switch through a mini virtual machine. amazing.

[@TheZeroHeader]

I know I'm just echoing other people here, but OneShot is by far one of my favorite games ever, I've never gotten so attached to a character as I have with Niko, and I truly enjoy that the game is getting such a polished treatment. Everyone should take a shot at this narrative.

Omg I love this, it's like DDLC+! It takes the meta elements of Oneshot and alters them for a console-friendly experience, while also adding a few extra features "outside" of the game.

[@Wazaraku]

This feels like a game you double-down. If you played it back in the day (or late last year like me) on PC and you love it? You will buy it again to see what they add... It probably isnt much beyond info and gallery and music but... still. Regardless if you're double down or playing it for the first time, I hope you enjoy your expirience with OneShot... you've already seen more than you should in this trailer. Don't look up more and just play it.

I'd recommend playing it on PC for certain reasons I don't want to spoil, and you won't need a powerful PC to do so (my laptop can hardly run Minecraft but it runs OneShot perfectly fine), but if that isn't an option at all then the Switch version seems like a fine enough version of an amazing game.

[@artsycrunch7560]

I know this may sound weird, but that timer near the end of the trailer at around 1:27 , I believe that is implying it’s release day. Because I heard it’s being released sometime this year, and in the pc version they used the same countdown to show when (spoilers a bit) the Solstice Route was being released, plus it says something like around 83 days, and I did the math, and based on when the trailer was released, 83 days from them is August 2nd. So maybe the game will be released that day? Idk, it could be it referencing something else, but I hope my guess/theory on the trailer is true it would be so cool!

BUT CAN THE WORLD MACHINE RUN CRYSIS edit: After further research, I have found out that it cannot run Crysis. Crysis requires at least an Intel Pentium 4 processor (or AMD Athlon 2800+), which has a speed of 2.8 GHz. Taking a look at the stats at the beginning of the bootup, The World Machine uses a YTEC Y-4430M processor, which only has a speed of 1.65 GHz. Crysis 2 requires an Intel Core 2 Duo at 2 GHz (or AMD Athlon 64 x2 at 2 GHz), which YTEC Y-4430M processor still does not reach. Crysis 3 requires an Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.4 GHz (or AMD Athlon 64 x2 at 2.7 GHz), which is again too high for the World Machine to run. Finally, Crysis Remastered requires an Intel Core i5-3450 at 3.1 GHz (or AMD Ryzen 3), which is too high for the YTEC Y-4430M processor to meet those standards, even with overclocking. This means that the World Machine cannot run any game in the Crysis franchise.
