Noita is Incredibly Painful, Yet Still Fun

[@sicsempertyrannis6541]

Ah yes, Noita, the game made by Finnish devs to make the player feel like how normal Finnish people do. Keep up the good work man, came here for the Cyberpunk videos, stayed for the brutal honesty

[@bobbylong5664]

I wish everyone started supporting more indie game creators, just to snuff out the bigger AAA companies. I think that could help save gaming

[@tugboat6940]

Ya because elden ring isn't fun at all

[@tugboat6940]

@David!? Should I keep going? Cus there's been mad triple a titles that have been released in the last few years. If you want to look stupid I can name a few

[@DynamicOverload]

Found your channel one or two weeks ago. And I'm really happy I did so. It's always good to see someone who isn't afraid to say his honest opinion, even if it means to get backlash. Really looking forward to your future content. Keep up the good work.

It's funny that you're about to do a Darksiders vid, I'm playing it right now for the first time since it's original release. I forgot how good it is, except not being able to zoom in on that tiny map, it's like trying to read it from Space lol

YOU WON WITH 74 TRIES?!?!?!?!?!?!? HOW DID YOU GET THIS POWER??

[@solarizexhc]

hey gamer, glad to see a video of yours again it’s been a few. i don’t think i could get into another rogue-like, isaac sucked me in for years and it took a lot of time and pain to learn it. going through all that again with a different game just sounds like hell lol

"I finally got round to reviewing Noita" _a wizard is never late..._

[@verhext0072]

came here from the cyberpunk video. also I wanted to say that youve barely seen 10% of what the game has to offer upon beating kolmi. waiting for the complete noita experience review 😇. keep up the honest and entertaining reviews.

[@platinum2905]

Can you make a video about whether or not shadow of the colossus ( remake) is overrated?

[@SyntheticMan]

Does the remake improve anything other than the graphics or is this just a review request specifically for the remake. But either way, sure, why not? I like the original, so I'll check out the remake.

[@platinum2905]

@@SyntheticMan i have not played the original, but this remake didn't blow me away. The controls and the camera are just terrible. And that comes from a guy who played resident evil 4 while aiming with my keyboard back in the day. I expected more tbh, and the game has a very nice tone and concept, but the story in the middle is nowhere to be found. The whole game is you going to the next collosi and climbing on it's furry parts, and yeah i guess this game kicked ass back in the day, but now it serves as a proving point to me that some games should not be remade and just left alone in history.

[@FULLM3T4L-J0K3R]

@@SyntheticMan Bluepoint’s schtick is that they take old games and give them a fresh coat of paint, only overhauling the graphics and making minor QOL adjustments. They did it with Colossus, and they did it with demon’s souls.

[@ActitisHypoleukos]

the game also includes parallel world travels

[@mikeexits]

Enter the Gungeon is another excellent rogue-lite imo. I didn't have so many RNG issues with it like you did with Noita. It's more of a bullet hell than Noita though so get ready for that if you try it. But for the most part you'll definitely get it down with practice. I find it easier than others like Risk of Rain 1, and I'd assume Noita as well from your review here. The dodge roll mechanic helps make it feel less BS when you die too.

[@paulf631]

As always your reviews are Honest and true

[@RaineErasmusWalker]

is that a HECCIN Chris Chan REFERENCERINO????????

[@Xenibalt]

RNG PERKS AND WANDS END RUNS i agree even me who is a veteran at this game and i know where the permanent health picks up are you basically learn the exploits to "have an auto win" and i hate that drilling stack the perk statue thing it seems like an exploit than a feature

[@prltqdf9]

1:23 It looks like the wand has a projectile spell and a shield(?) spell of sorts and you fired twice in a row too quickly and at such a right angle that it made the projectile spell hit the shield, bounce back and kill you.

[@unbearifiedbear1885]

The lighting and particle effects in this were enough to get me to download.. like a more beautiful Terraria

[@Saskidan]

I'll have to give it another shot because I tried playing it for a couple hours and it was absolutely brutal, found it very unforgiving

[@EndOfSmallSanctuary97]

I have absolutely no interest in this game or any games like it (plus I just know I'd probably smash my controller or keyboard trying to play this), but I like your videos, they're good to put on while having my morning coffee and chilling.

[@FULLM3T4L-J0K3R]

greetings from /fit/

[@erickelton37]

You should try Neon Abyss its prob the most similar to Issac, synergy wise like literally a mix of gungeon and issac

[@Xenibalt]

the potions and the wands are the most fun parts for sure but exploring the "new areas" heheh wizard secrets

[@wianbason2984]

simple wand crafting would help alot

[@yakovhadash]

there’s a non roguelike on Switch that looks just like this game. anyone know what i am talking about? it came to the eShop a long time ago

[@werewolf1423]

Ah yes the one genre that i cannot stay away from no matter how many times i failed

[@Chickidydow]

This is an immersive sim masquerading as a rogue lite platformer. And there are ways to progress with consistency.

[@jeremiahpeters7299]

Your videos make me happy

[@Gruntvc]

Forgot to mention this other indie FPS that is advertising itself to be like classic Deus Ex/Immersive Sims. store.steampowered.com/app/1437760/Peripeteia/

[@Xenibalt]

the laser gives you a TINY TINY damage buff and speed on shots fired but its not that great

[@Gruntvc]

This game looks decent, not really my kind of game. Just makes me want to play Super Metroid. Even more so that Aliens Infestation game made by Wayforward, but that one is sadly stuck on Nintendo DS. There are a few Indies coming that do look interesting to me. Like: Brutal Fate, Core Decay, and Trepang2. Plus two remasters of two classic FPS 90s games, Sin and Kingpin: Life of Crime. Wish they'd remaster Soldier of Fortune 1&2 as well. Do you own Return to Castle Wolfenstein on Steam? Highly recommend trying out RealRTCW Mod. Definitely my favorite Wolfenstein though it took me 20 years to finally complete it on the original hardest difficulty. As for Cyberpunk 2077. I returned my console copy and will wait to see if they actually fix the game on either PS5 or Xbox Series X. Didn't get either yet, but best to avoid the PS4 and Xbox One versions. Any thoughts on that Cyberpunk VN on Steam and soon Nintendo Switch game that became a recent target of the outrage mobs? Devs/publishers didn't bend the knee. Lots of rage and even death threats...

[@SyntheticMan]

I'll have to check out those indie games. Just bought Return to Castle Wolfenstein after seeing it was $1.50. Just checked out that VN and good on Top Hat studios for not bending the knee to the outrage mob. Kinda weird that this is coming up now, since it looks like the game came out on steam back in August but I guess twitter users are a lot more likely to own a Switch than a gaming PC. Here's hoping more Indie devs ignore the maniacs on Twitter.

[@Gruntvc]

@Synthetic Man, Trepang2 does have a fun demo on Steam. Closest game to FEAR at the moment. Brutal Fate is made by the same guy who made Brutal Doom. So, closest you're likely gonna get to an official retail release of that. Core Decay is claiming to be an immersive sim FPS like Deus Ex. Nice, you can install RealRTCW Mod on Steam too. Recommend following the directions to install it properly and the options to select to get a steady Frame rate. I think The controversy started because the game is supposed to release soon digitally on Nintendo Switch without any censorship. It is rated M, but the outrage mobs were angered by this and the devs/publishers didn't care. I don't usually play VN games, but good on them for not bending the knee. Btw, did you play Rare games like: Banjo Kazooie, Jet Force Gemini, or Conker's Bad Fur Day? Just found out some ex Rare devs made a little indie game for PS4 and Steam called, Tamarin, that looks like a mix between a cutesy platforms and 3rd person shooter. Tamarin looked interesting, but its full price is a bit high on both console and pc. The steam version requires a controller to play too. Wish there was a demo.

[@SyntheticMan]

@@Gruntvc I'll have to check out Tamarin because I love some of Rare's N64 titles. Yooka-Laylee though...not so much. Are the Tamarin devs more talented then the ones that formed Playtonic?

[@Gruntvc]

@Synthetic Man, I don't think it's the same devs who did Yooka. Tamarin is their 1st game. As for talent, the guy who did Tamarin's music is the same one that composed Donkey Kong Country. And if you check out the trailer or any gameplay vids, definitely looks like these former Rare devs worked on Jet Force Gemini. It looks like a cross between a collectathon like Banjo Kazooie and the 3rd person shooting action of Jet Force Gemini. I'm not sure Tamarin is worth the full $29.99 price though. It's not on sale on PS4, but it is a few dollars off on Steam. Only found out about Tamarin thanks to a random KZbin ad. It released back in September. No physical copy either.

[@tigerash2061]

I'll be honest, Noida doesn't interest me personally, but I am trying to get into indie games myself. One indie game that I played recently is Dust: an Elysian Tail, which I really enjoyed.

[@TeleportRush]

Pretty sure that one is a microsoft third party actually. Edit: Ooh, wow, the game was apparently made primarily by one person. That's pretty fuckin tight.

[@rwln]

Hey synth, I haven’t been on yt for a while for a few reasons, but if your channel does get deleted I really do think you should continue not reviewing modern games but instead start only streaming on rumble or odyssey if your channel kicks the bucket. You have a dedicated audience who will follow you there, you can make a new streaming channel/ podcast successful and you can still be an influence. Just don’t completely give up on an internet career if KZbin is no longer an option. You can make a difference in more ways than one

[@Xenibalt]

74 attempts for your first win is normal and yes, this is one of the most brutal games i've ever played and i love hard difficulty rouge likes or lites noita and enter the gungeon are my favorites but there are a bunch more ... rogue star rescue is the most fun/light hearted/easiest BUT IT HAS GREAT COOP so good

[@Steven-cf1ty]

I hate that people call Noita, Binding of Isaac, etc. roguelikes. There's actual games that adapt the fundamental gameplay of rogue, like Elona or Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, so calling games that have no similarities besides high difficulty/permadeath and random elements is not only stupid because it includes everything from bullet hells to Minecraft, but also obscures a real genre of games that's already underappreciated.

[@doommaker4000]

Just add a topdown and turn based tags... And Noita is really close to a reasonable definition of a roguelike
