Shroud invited me to play his NEW game... (It's AWESOME!)

[@gmeinersYT]

Check the game out over on steam here if you want: store.steampowered.com/app/2641470/Spectre_Divide/ Happy to answer any gameplay questions as well!

[@Andrew19972]

Was skeptical at first when you mentioned the Duality aspect but you explained it very well! Actually a bit excited for this now! Great review man!

[@Alig80r]

This game is in beta and already this good, I think the ceiling is so high for this game. Also, I think they are in a unique position to take over the console market in this genre

[@AustinCapron]

When do you think it will release

[@Alig80r]

@@AustinCapronthey said in discord earlier this month that in a few weeks there will be a closed beta so I’m assuming after that

[@ZLPod]

nice review. had a blast with the playtest last night. excited for the closed beta!

[@gascan7333]

Alg boost. Keep up the good work brother, hope this variety stuff goes well

[@fl4kker511]

It looks like a fun game but we'll have to see the full release. Hopeful it turns out great

[@gageyboi5123]

Yo this looks dope!

[@cudez9015]

This looks really cool and love the fact that they skipped ultimate abilities!

[@Somedudewuzhere]

Game seems really fun. Will definitely play when it comes out. 1 thing that looks strong and annoying is that scans seem very strong, with having scans that bypass walls.

[@JakeMillsaps]

I also played this playtest, game is actually super fun.

[@gmeinersYT]

Yeah definitely a good time, excited for a beta or something to get some more time on the game

[@JakeMillsaps]

@@gmeinersYT For sure, I will say though, something you didnt mention. the mantle mechanic felt weird and a bit out of place. Not sure if you felt that way too but I found since crouch jumping was a thing I almost never used mantle for anything.

[@RD22x]

This was probably mentioned in G's video, but can people kill the spectre you aren't using?

[@JakeMillsaps]

@@RD22x Yes, your spectre will just be crouched in a corner it can die if they find it. most often we would leave it tucked in a corner to get sound queues at round start then summon it or swap off of that.

[@JakeMillsaps]

@@gmeinersYT also there will be another playtest starting Saturday the 3rd

[@TRU1YHAZ3D]

I’ve never been a fan of games like Valo, R6, or Cs, but this looks dope

[@Random-th7wm]

Looks pretty freaking sweet! I like the borderlands-ish artstyle.

[@benson7374]

Thats actually so cool

[@AustinCapron]

When do you think the game will release

[@gmeinersYT]

@AustinCapron should be end of 2024

[@AustinCapron]

No way at the end of 2024 if the beta is this month right?

[@gabesanderes4208]

@@AustinCapron it’s extremely polished and almost finished. I think the beta and playtests are mostly to tune and fix problems with the servers

[@PsykOGamingYT]

The graphical set up sort of reminds me to Borderlands which makes this game very worth trying for my taste!

[@tokyorozes]

"the maps are kinda mid, so I'm giving them a 7/10" are we being fr right now

[@Leiflvr]

Not sure if you use scripts for your vids but all of them are well crafted and paced really well.

[@mercobtw]

The new gameplay mechanics are interesting but they all look like Valorant

[@JakeMillsaps]

The game at least in my experience with it played very different.

[@mercobtw]

@@JakeMillsaps I dont doubt that but the style will put off alot of people because it look too much like Valorant

[@jaunks]

looks like borderlands to me but whateva

[@cole8636]

Looks like a mix of val and fort to me tbh. Youll either love it or hate it

[@sleepyboy__]

id rather it look like this for good visibility rather than realistic or something like being in a cave looking outside being completely blind in destiny 2 honestly. especially for competitive shooters

[@sherpagoolsbee8390]

I'll continue to watch your content now that Destiny is dead. Keep up the good work. You will get through this.

[@hend0wski]

my friend groups resident valorant degen is gonna have to take a look at this but im interested

[@homdean4110]

This game is walking on very thin ice as it’s a huge look alike to valorant but we will have to see when it’s fully developed

[@gmeinersYT]

Plays EXTREMELY differently to valorant, but there are a ton of similarities. I think val kinda became standard and so a lot of games are using it as a blueprint

[@disbled]

Was Valorant on thin ice cause it's CSGO with Overwatch abilities?

[@fearsomezq]

this does not look like valorant stop

[@juicydoubles1144]

Hoping this game ends up being fun and doesn’t require Chinese spyware… oops I mean anti-cheat.

[@TOPsenrx]

game is going to be doa

[@gmeinersYT]

@senpaii6603 I doubt that, has a lot of pretty big names invested in it. Going to help increase player pop on that alone. Will likely have more of a niche group of ppl who prefer it compared to cs and val

[@rippeh8942]

Yea, idk about this, the art design look bad imo, the characters look weird, like i dont like that art style

[@CosmicAngmar]

Nuh uh

[@TwiztOndaBeat]

this looks like valorant world but with a borderlands skin. imo looks horrible. besides that, it sounds fire.

[@gmeinersYT]

@TwiztOndaBeat I like the borderlands art style a lot. Not sure as much for a tac shooter tho

[@chipthewhale8214]

This guy has no idea what he’s yapping about lmao

[@BIayde]

All these games look and play the same.

[@EntropyportnE]

On the one hand I like the breakdown On the other the number rankings that are completely devoid of context from a pve player seem like completely made up bullshit and are ultimate why I’m leaving the video in the middle Also dude you don’t like that character lots are different and people have ults? So you just don’t like the premise of PvP with different abilities, wait til he hears about destiny PvP, absolutely laughable What’s next gmeiners ranks doom 8/10 but claims to dislike that he can only see the arm and the gun, like ffs dude don’t dunk on the premise and say you like the thing you just shit in your own credibility

[@gmeinersYT]

I don't like that characters have OP abilities in tactical shooters. That's why I like the sponsor system here.That was pretty clear in the video. I also don't like Destiny 2 PvP, hence why I only play PvE. With all the abilities and broken ways to play D2 PvP, the game is unbalanced all the time. If the rankings are devoid of context because you don't play PvP games, then that is on you.

[@EntropyportnE]

@@gmeinersYT Reyna isn’t op there are a lot of ways to counter her, and in top level play she doesn’t have a high pick rate. She is really good for low skill players who spray but one headshot is faster than a spray kill especially at range. You rankings are unclear because there is no rubric. The shooting is an 8 because you like it? An 8 compared to what? And 8 in gun feel, an 8 in weapon balance, and 8 in ease of use? Why not a 7.5 or a 9? That’s what I mean by uncontextualized. A number only means something in an established system. Calling something an 8 means as much as calling it purple, unless you establish the difference between the numbers. But also this is a prerelease game, so even if the shooting is a gmeiners 8 and that number isn’t completely pulled out of your ass, a number score isn’t useful information what’s useful is your impressions and what would be more helpful is more context created via comparison, how is it different from cod or valorant or cs or destiny. Knowing that ads gives accuracy is useful, knowing gunplay is a gmeiners 8 when you have to my knowledge, and I watch a lot of your videos, never given anything a number score before. Whatch a content creator like acg who explains what his numbers mean and what his system is and why a certain score is given to understand context. But further no one is giving numbers to subsets of game mechanics in this way. A game may get a score for graphics or technicals or art direction or story or sound but that’s not what you’re doing so you can’t rely on an understanding of that system. You just gave numbers to your opinions with no system, so great bro glad you think the guns are purple and the kits are strawberries thanks for telling me it’s my fault when I said hey I have no fucking clue what you mean.

[@MrNegativ3TV]

@@EntropyportnE bro no one is reading all that, stop crying and go outside. He does not care about you opinion and neither do we, if you don’t like his rankings play the game yourself or find another youtuber to watch rage baiter.

[@mopeyhornet9213]

Counterstrike and concord had a woke dei baby. No thank u

[@nyctopheliaX]

Actually funny how they don't even try to look different to Valorant 😂 Kill feed, (Mini-)Map, UI in general (shapes, colors, style overall), also Fonts .. It is like 1:1 😅 .. and Duality is basically playing Omen or Chamber in a nutshell

[@FUNKYFUTURE57]

Oh look CSGO, Valorant , FragPunk Very generic boring game

[@oFiGuReZo]

Great another MnK bias shooter, so cool. Hasn’t been a good shooter with good controller support since Rouge Company. And with Shroud being the poster boy we can definitely expect we won’t get any controller support for this game or at best some half assed slop that can’t compete with MnK.

[@TerranViceGrip]

Looks like another cod clone

[@HayatDE]
