[PROTOTYPE] - Skin Simulator

[@DPadGamer]

Alex Mercer and Lightning McQueen agree on one key thing: If you don't like the feel of your skin... just pull it off.

there's something incredibly funny about the contrast of penny sitting there bouncing and giggling and smiling and clapping while playing the most comically, overly-violent video game possible

[@Celt420]

I am genuinely crying, five minutes in and not a single second to catch my breath lmaao "IF I COME BACK AND USE MY KEY, IT'S NOT ME! IT'S NOT MEEE!" ..."How's it goin boys, I'm here to use my key"

[@AgeAgeAge]

The [Prototype] in the title makes it sound like the experimental first episode of a series where you simulate skin

[@alizardinyourroom1361]

Tbh I thought the first video was gonna be her wasting military money by playing a game they made for recruitment 😭💀

[@ejm1225]

15:12 "'Why does the CG look like a direct-to-DVD Barbie movie?' Because this country used to fucking be something." I was about to say that it's also because the CGI cutscenes were done by Mainframe Studios (also known as Rainmaker Entertainment), but from what I've recently found out, they only did work on the game's trailer, not the cutscenes. They're the same animation company that did many classic direct-to-video Barbie movies, including Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper and Barbie: Fairytopia. They also did many TV shows such as ReBoot, Shadow Raiders, Beast Machines: Transformers, Spider-Man: The New Animated Series, and Max Steel, and other TV specials such as Casper's Haunted Christmas, Scary Godmother, and Hot Wheels: AcceleRacers.

[@danwilliams2551]

This game has such a surreal atmosphere where you can slice a bunch of screaming civilians in half: there's nothing in the visuals that is cartoonish, nor in the audio, yet the whole thing still feels like slapstick comedy.

[@Pekara121]

You can literally use WWE moves. Elbow from the sky, or my favorite the cannon ball. Shits hilarious.

[@Penquinn14]

21:13 dude looks like he's pretending to be a bulldog trying to look tough and ends up with an impact crater

[@hambor12]

i can't wait for Penny to show the Patsy ability Basically, Alex can get an upgrade where while disguised as a soldier, he can accuse any random civilian of being an Imposter i mean Alex Mercer, causing every soldier to stop tracking Alex Mercer and begin opening fire on the poor civilian Alex has accused of being Alex

LMAO YES

[@clawcakes2]

this is so real

[@cocoabrowniebear]

the beauty about having Alex's ability is you never have to put together an outfit; it's like window shopping but without windows or paying

[@honkhonk5000]

Plus murder. Arguably cannibalism. Not sure if Mercer is really Mercer or if he’s some weird mutation of the virus with its own will 🤷‍♂️

0:27 I love how after picking up the wrong person she instantly chucks the poor guy like a fucking basketball.

[@TheAussieBlue]

You cannot put them down after picking them up. Either chuck em, eat em, or slam em into the ground. Or my personal favorite, run up to the top of the empire state building, jump into the air, and do a Recoome pile driver on every level down. God this game lets you be sadistic.

[@beingsactual]

The biggest innovation the sequel has introduced is letting you just release people you grabbed by accident.

[@LPyxel]

I dunno why, but Jerma suddenly appearing in the corner singing Treachery by Envision Wyverns out of left field really tickled my funny bone.

This game was everything to my child brain back then. -sandbox -destruction verse -free roam -challenge activities -unique powers It fueled my god-complex and I loved it. Now, how can I recreate the Mercer paradox?

[@jrsomethingnumbers9704]

Probably that new Patrick Star game ig lol

[@aldar8240]

the mercer paradox?

[@rama-n-i]

@@aldar8240 Mercer is Mercer but we are Mercer, progress through the game we uncover what Mercer did. Revelation is that we are the virus, just using Mercer as an identity so the paradox, Is what I like to call it for the lolz

[@hambor12]

@@aldar8240 Basically, there's no "moral quandary" to being unrepentantly evil in this sandbox game like in so many other open-world sandboxes where there's a binary karma system (implied or otherwise) like Saint's Row III or inFamous Prototype 1 doesn't disincentivize being a superpowered murderhobo mainly because what ever fucked up shit "Alex Mercer" (the player) does voluntarily, you are still somehow less evil and morally reprehensible than the *real* Alex Mercer. The closest another game has to this is Saint's Row IV, which takes place in a virtual simulacrum of the world from III (because the actual earth is blown up after the first mission)

[@Granola222]

“Plenty of skin to go around!” *guy who heard that* 😟 🏃‍♂️

[@stormtendo]

“Who am I wearing today” is something that’s extremely out of context if you’re not in the know about Prototype 😂

[@GuitarOfTime0116]

i never heard of this game, so i thought penny just uploaded a WIP video and i was okay with that

[@stormtendo]

@@GuitarOfTime0116 oh no it’s an awesome game, check it out. Avoiding spoilers, it’s basically a bio punk superhero/villain/antihero game with an awesome plot and soundtrack

If Alex Mercer, in the body of a woman with a nice coat, talks to another woman with a nice coat, does this game pass the Bechdel test?

I just gotta say, I love the inclusion of proper subtitles, really puts this above most gaming content for me :D

[@tinky8888]

This!!

[@kurbstomp3729]

Some of the outfits that the NPCs are wearing in this game are truly mindboggling. Like 6:23 If I saw someone just wearing that outfit walking towards me on the street I would jaywalk through oncoming traffic just to avoid them because they're clearly an insane person.

[@EmmyAndDeskyUnited]

You're reading my mind. Not even the darkest depths of Y2K fashion would come up with something THAT deranged.

[@WINMACEOFWAR]

I want a modern version of this, it was so fun to play back in 2009

[@WINMACEOFWAR]

Also, you're so damn funny

[@RipRoxas]

Still can't believe that they released a [Prototype] as a full priced game, this really does say a lot about the modern gaming market

[@Dieclownmusic]

I don’t think anyone is gonna see this comment but it’s really nice being able to watch Penny play this. An ex abusive boyfriend loved used character as a face claim for a characters online and I had no idea what it was from. It being introduced to me in a safe environment, I.e. at the gleeful appreciation of Penny at the cringiness of this game, has helped me a lot!! Thank you penny :).

[@Lawsondgage]

I saw a really funny headcanon for why people are willing to let so much crazy shit slide in regards to the detection meter. Like how you can leap off a skyscraper and crater the ground in front of them in disguise and it'll only go to yellow. If you're a normal dude with a rifle and you're supposed to be fighting a guy who can walk off a tank shell to the face and then pick that tank up and hurl it across Central Park? And then that guy slams into the ground right next to you but starts just casually walking along? You are going to be working REALLY HARD to make sure you don't see SHIT until there's no other option.
