I think they'll start the sync at the "Scott here" and have it running the entire video before then. like, all the "Scott here"s are at the same time, but this one "hey all" will be 17 minutes before but i do like @serenaisepic2129's idea too

[@grantmoore8228]

One of the more interesting loadingscreens is from Spec Ops: The Line. At first, most of the loadscreen tips are generic stuff like "Use cover effectively" or "Press this button to to execute a melee attack". As the game goes on though and it quickly devolves into psychological horror, the messages change. Saying morbid stuff like "Do you feel like a hero yet?" or "To kill for yourself is murder, to kill for your country is patriotic, to kill in a video game is harmless entertainment." It's surprisingly effective, even if they should've written more stuff like that to avoid repeat messages.

[@mongrel_97]

this game STILL causes flamewars on any videogame discussion forum/group chat. jesus for a mediocre TPS cover shooter it sure is able to ruffle feathers years after

[@ghostspooky4974]

Silent Hill Downpour did this as well, only far less subtle and sometimes really stupid. It went from things like "If a weapon condition is low, don't be afraid to throw it for extra damage and pick up a new one." to "Don't look behind you." "It knows you're alone." "STOP DOING THAT!!!" and a few others. It was bottom of the barrel stuff but it was something.

[@JezMM]

To be honest they were a pretty smart choice - on modern hardware, the unintrusive load screens are practically just a flicker of the word "LOADING" on the original HL1. They're getting closer and closer to that on HL2 as well. Putting fade to blacks and starting up elaborate loading screen animations just to instantly end and fade back to the game again would've been really dumb looking in the long run as technology improved. Sure they could've always patched the games to remove them, maybe one day they even will when technology is such that they don't even need to be there at all because the transition is instantaneous, but as is they've aged pretty elegantly for their simplicity.

"That's like saying you miss instruction manuals, game magazines, or video rental stores!" I do Scott, and I'm not gonna pretend I don't

[@lukew6725]

Not so much the rental stores and magazines for me, but there was so much artistry that used to go into making those old instruction manuals and it's a real shame that we don't get that anymore.

[@LRM12o8]

I hate loading screens and will never miss them, but having a manual with cool artworks to explain the basic controls as well as some useful tips and tricks would actually be better than having a game stuffed full of tutorials and being able to rent a movie for a small one-time payment on the rare occasion that I want to watch a movie that's not in the cinema anymore, rather than having to pay a monthly fee to access it among loads of other content I don't care about would also be nice. Though neither of those have to come in the old dorm ro work: In-game manuals work just as well, like in Mario Smash Football (Super Mario Strikers) or DMC Devil May Cry and a video streaming services could just charge customers without a (paid) subscription a fee per video streamed (analogous to renting a DVD), rather than ONLY offering flatrate model subscriptions.

[@munjatkumo1929]

Instruction manuals are cool 'cause they can have lore on the enemies and the games world and stuff. You can read them in between play sessions, and that's pretty fun and relaxing. Sure, many games like Doom 2016 and Nier: Automata have that stuff in the game itself in the settings menu. You could read the in-game manual anytime you have the game on. But that's the thing. When I have the game on, I wanna play the game. Not read books. When I'm not playing a game, that's when I like reading up on the lore of a game. Just chilling in bed or a comfy chair or something, flipping trough the manual or browsing the fan wiki. When I play the game, the game conditions me to move and do stuff and solve puzzles. It doesn't condition me to read on the enemies. No, it just puts it to the side and says "if you're interested". Though I gotta admit, part of the reason I don't read the stuff in Doom 2016 is because I don't like the writing in those games. Nier: Automatas writing I do like, and I'm interested to read about the robots and the lore and stuff. Problem is though that there's so much text about the enemies in the in-game manual that I always put it off. Because again, if I have the game booted up, I'd rather be playing it. Still, since the printed manuals aren't a thing anymore, it's better that we at least have something instead of nothing. Maybe I'll get around to reading those enemy descriptions in Nier: Automata some day.

[@nvrblabla]

I actually really like physical manuals, that's one of the reasons why I bought the collectors edition of Tunic. An retro style game jam packed with a manual and everything that came with it in the old days.

Iirc the reason the loading screens are so long is due to the game loading everything each time unlike other games like xenoblade where there is loading only when changing maps which are quite big and filled with enemies that some can only spawn at certain times of day or weather ans quick traveling in the same map has no load time and with few exceptions all cutscenes take place in places that you can explore yourself

For Budokai 3, I once figured out you can eject the disk to stay on the loading screen and "complete" the minigame. As you spin the sticks, more saibamen spawn faster and eventually a red one will appear, it was almost impossible to do under normal circumstances.

[@juiceala]

A common mistake is to think the door cutscene in Resident Evil is a loading screen, this is just a leftover visual effect from when the game originated on the Famicom, the loading screen is the black screen afterwards, there are even cheat codes that disable those cutscenes. This is similar to Sonic CD's warp cutscene, many people thought it was a loading screen but you can actually skip it with the pause button (on the Sega CD) the loading screen is the black screen afterwards.

[@steelerfaninperu]

Preach. Manuals were a cool window into the devs' collective soul and I did learn actual gameplay mechanics from time to time that weren't always taught properly in game. Frankly, I'd rather have a game I can just jump right into if I'm smart enough to read at an 8th grade level, rather than a game that forces me into a drawn out handholding sequence where I learn to move the friggin camera.

As someone who grew up playing every single DBZ game on ps2, I really dug the way the some of them had a little something to do. Usually just spinning the stick in a circle or tapping the button, but I’m not gonna lie, I ALWAYS went try hard on the loading screen minigame before my battles. I still remember being like 9 and telling myself “the game isn’t gonna load any faster if I keep tapping this button, but I really need to see how high I can make Goku stack these empty plates of food, and if I half ass it I’ll feel shame”. As for “do I miss them”? Yea, in the same way I miss being a kid, which is to say missing it doesn’t mean I wanna go back. Missing something doesn’t mean you’re saying it’s the best something ever was, sometimes you just miss something because you like to remember the fond feelings you had of it. Missing load screens and preferring load screens are two different things.

Trying to reclaim feelings is something we all feel.

One of my favourite loading screens in a video game is in Elite Dangerous. You fly a spaceship and when you travel between star systems via hyperspace, that's a masked loading screen.

This is the perfect video to trick people into thinking your wi-fi is buffering

[@dannymac6368]

Wi-fi has been freaking out lately, I genuinely thought my stream stopped…2 seconds in. 😂

[@solidskullz5736]

One small thing I really like when games do is when they give you something to mess around with while you’re loading. The original splatoon had a little game you could play while loading into a match and I always found it really fun. Dragon ball z budokai tenkaichi 3 also had something like that to a lesser extent, but I appreciated having something to keep my attention

[@pilotbug6100]

Fun fact, half life's loading times are much faster on PC. And the intention of it was to NEVER interrupt the perspective of the story. Sure a loading screen could be added, but that would interrupt gameplay more than just loading it

13:06 That's pre patch Bloodborne. Scott, update your game!!

[@donovan802]

4:50 one of the loudest Jesus Christs Scott ever screamed, and Rex didn’t show up?

[@iAmAllOfMii]

This video might have one of my favourite end gags to date. 16:50

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

Everyone seems to talk about how Scott said “Scott Here!” near the end of the video, but what everyone seem to forget is that after Scott says “Scott Here!”, the old Scott the Woz theme plays. Now that’s nostalgic.

[@magiccouponsREAL]

7:10 good use of your three hands scott

[@gavinharrison1976]

My phone froze on the frame 0:30 after the phrase “half the time you’re not” and my dumbass watched that one frame for 30 seconds thinking it was the funniest shit ever

[@richie404]

Scott making a video about Loading Screens is Perfect! Never forget my Experience waiting for the Loading Screen to finish in Crash Bandicoot 4 Wrath of Cortex. 😂

[@J1.329]

I did not realize how prevalent Rayman was until I started playing Origins a week ago. The mention of the games at 6:57 caught me off guard. Either we’re finally giving them the recognition they deserve or I am just now realizing that they’re more popular than I thought they were.

[@killertofu90]

I remember playing Resident Evil 2 as my first in the series, and there's that door loading screen when an actual zombie is there when the door opens. I didn't realize that was the only time that happened so all the other older RE games I played, I always thought there was a chance there'd be a zombie in the loading screen. Thanks, anxiety.

[@Slimewizard36]

14:10 petition to have Scott make a Scott’s stash video about his animal crossing island

[@hhjpegg]

yeah sure why not

[@myrtlemountaineer8857]

Scott is like the virtual boy… just without the eye strain.

[@Jason75913]

I don't think Scott is hellish red. 🤣🤣🤣

[@LucasSample101]

Wrath of Cortex probably had my favorite loading screen. I just really enjoyed the theme and falling animation of Crash😂

[@MSUHitman]

9:14 So this specific load substitute is common with any game made in the Unreal Engine, which is most games now. I loved the random conversations that would trigger in the original Mass Effect that people for some reason got mad about & every other game in the series just went to loading screens.

[@JGameGuy]

Only Scott can get me interested in loading screens

[@tenebrisity6170]

Oh wow! My favorite, the video started with my favorite cliche in video games, a loading screen!

[@CreamBRabbit]

Scott loading in call him “Scott the Pause”

[@JustAGame89]

Bro went from to posting every 2-3 months to posting weekly. Glad to see you on the grind, Scott.

[@Num1MarioFan]

8:02 it does have a progress bar. it's on the gamepad screen lmao.

[@trapofonidrillore185]

I was suggested here while listening to the song “Dupe - Kontrolla” 😅😅

[@magickponch]

thanks for making the kind of videos that you make! if I'm having a rough day, a few scott the woz jokes get me feeling better.
