[@Neogears1312]

I think more people need to learn that last point; Games are *games,* they don't have to shake the industry. If it's fun and feels great to play that can be all it needs to be. Plenty of games get overlooked for not doing everything to revolutionize video games as a medium and that can keep you from playing a lot of fun games that might be your favorite even if they're not GOTY.

[@twincherries6698]

It's weird this has to be said, no doubt all of us as kids have played some junk that we still love, surely at least most of us should understand that a game doesn't have to be conventionally "great" to like or even love it

[@ivanmunoz9055]

Well I had a discussion on Twitter with someone for this same reason. The guy in question stated that Horizon Zero Dawn wasn't such a great game and neither it or the sequel deserved so much praise because they didn't revolutionized videogames and that breath of the wild is a much better game. I love breath of the wild and I'm looking forward for the sequel but the statement he made is fucking stupid, I told him that Twilight Princess for example is a great game and it isn't revolutionary, quite the opposite indeed. Then even if I like how innovative BOTW is Twilight Princess is too among my favourite Zelda games and is linear and conservative as fuck but if a game is really well done it can be praised even if it is not innovative. Today people talk about games as if everyone had to be a life changing experience and I like games that expand how gaming is perceived but I also like simpler experiences and many people seems to think the same as many games are going back to 2D graphics.

[@Neogears1312]

@@twincherries6698 I think this misses the point a bit, it wasn't "well it could be better" thats the main thing, its "this is pretty good, not fantastic but a good time still". This is a pretty good if not impressive game. Its worth playing because of that, but many people wrote it off because what i can only describe as standards being too high for games despite the bar being at an all time low from the AAA market.

[@TyrellGames]

I think my favorite part of this game and one of my favorite visual storytelling moments in any game I've played is (spoilers sort of, not really) a part of the game where you come to a locked door with a note written next to it. The note says something about the person who wrote it tried everything to open it and that they believed if they ever got it to happen the war would suddenly just end. If you have a high enough lock picking skill you can open the door, and once you walk through it you turn around and realize that you could have just walked around it and the whole building is destroyed, and that there was nothing inside after all. You also get an achievement called "No hope."

Yeah I agree. Just cause a game doesn’t push the envelope of what games can do or have eye bleedingly realistic visuals doesn’t mean it’s bad. There are enough good games styled after the snes era out there to prove that point.

Yup. That also goes for other media. I get how cutting edge content should be standard, I'm only saying there's enough fun to have with less "advanced" stuff too.

[@natalieWould]

My dear friend bought me an Xbox Series S so we could play games together (bless him). I haven’t played Xbox since 360 (and that broke when the first Assassin’s Creed came out). I still kept my nose in Microsoft’s business and what they were up to over the years. I recall looking at launch games like “Ryse: Son of Rome” and later titles like “ReCore” thinking how quaint they came off, seeming more like the OX/GC/PS2 era in their conventions compared to that period’s (then novel) trends. Fast-forward to present; I’ve been combing through titles on Game Pass and installed those two specifically wanting to see some 1st party Xbox games (beyond Gears of War, Forza and Halo) recalling those and actually sort of fascinated that I’d relegated them to just ‘never be played’ in some sort of staunch condemnation. And you know what? I was right. They are quaint with game design of an already bygone era, with sprinklings of conventions that were to come and are here (good lord are they here). But! They were well crafted, original in their own manner and fun. My friend’s were confused that I’d bother touching these games versus what else is on offer, as they were seen as (as I previously thought as well) an “obsolete showcase” and “Failed IP”. And when asked about them, neither did I arrive from ‘On High’ to tell them, “I have found the greatest titles of all!” Nah, and they won’t be liked at all by plenty for legitimate reasons. But I could solidly recommend them as offering a good time and that they may be worth a try depending on your taste, but they aren’t going to rock your world either.

[@mr.roboto8720]

[@zaphero5518]

Oh I've looked into the difficulties of this thing due to confusion on early reviews and how the game changed and *holy crum* it's insane. The game got a rebalance update in March of 2020 on pc (later pushed to consoles) and double check this but apparently the "improved balance of difficulty levels" change meant that *easy difficulty was now harder than the old extreme difficulty*. If true, my gosh that's an entirely different game! I have never heard of a difficulty overhaul that heavy before.

[@ColonelNegative]

I bought the game day one, played and beat it on extreme. It needed the rebalance. The devs listened to the players, asked for feedback, and fixed the issues with the game. Not just difficulty, but spawn rates, graphical glitches, new graphics modes...they really went all out.

[@jayceneal5273]

Yeah I played it on launch, extreme was probably where normal difficulty is now. Extreme mode now is actually really REALLY difficult, but imo the only real way to play it. terminators spot you instantly, you die in like 3 hits, and ammo and resources are scarce. It really does a great job of letting you experience the dread of post judgement day life like the first film gave us a small glimpse at.

[@es5845]

Theres one very obvious issue and that is first person animations and human animations, which look dull like morrowind/oblivion. That is completely unrelated to "graphics" and directly related to budget and yes, that resemblance does make it look old.

[@jayceneal5273]

I'd say the daytime sections are meh looking, like an older fallout game. At night though, the game looks BEAUTIFUL because this game has fantastic lighting. Foggy moonlight peering through decayed buildings, purple lasers lighting up the sky and red eyes peering at you when you look around corners, you easily forget that the texture fidelity is a little blurry or the animations are a little stiff. Robotic animations aren't a huge deal when the enemies you're fighting are all robots anyway, lol.

There's many scenes in T2 that blow my mind thinking of such a recent movie taking such risks with the stunts. Especially with it's budget. Arnold did a bunch of his own stunts and a lot of what's in that movie is near impossible to do today, especially with a well known actor doing his own stunts. Granted, not all but many where you would think it's a body double.

I think there's definitely a place for "fandom games," which may not be outstanding but still cater to fans of a certain style, franchise, or genre. I played a lot of Dragon Ball Z games when I was a kid, and as an adult I recognize that they weren't very well made, but they're full of fanservice and are competent enough to still be a blast. These games seem like they fit that bill.

I just done the mission in the hospital it was so scary just seeing those Terminators patrolling the halls and then when I blew up the generator and ran outside I had a heart attack when I saw the HKs flying across the sky and then a giant unit of Terminators coming towards me to investigate this game is great ^__^

[@nentendoboy12]

The mode where you play AS an Terminator was also fun, if a little out of place because enemies can kill you at the same rate as the main campaign. But it was fun to yet dudes into other dudes. I'm still holding out hope for a good Terminator game where you fully play as a T-800, lifting trucks above your head and tossing them and bursting through a wall duel wielding twelve gauges.

[@jayceneal5273]

I feel like they should have released level packs for that mode, or hell make a spin off game with that basic format. It's hilariously fun picking up dudes and throwing them way up in the air, using a minigun to cut down hordes of resistance members, and destroying their food reserves lmao.

[@volsenimack1135]

I hope the devs release modding tools or at least a level editor down the line. Would be interesting to see what could be made

[@Xathian]

My biggest issue with the game is the fact that it's narrative is written as it it presumes the player to be the character, we're given revelations that are "shocking" or a twist only if you, like the characters, haven't seen the movies and know exactly what's coming. Most people will know that the stranger is you literally 10 seconds (no hyperbole, literally 10 seconds) into the games opening cutscene the first time he speaks because we already know time travel and going back to protect the people of the past is part of the Terminator core narrative. Also the second revelation about the machines learning to create skin to create indistinguishable Terminators and all the hints it drops along the way (skinning prisoners for "some reason", finding the corpse of the guy they clearly based Robert Patrick's Terminator on) and again because we've seen Terminator this is not a shock at all and you expect it from the moment it's first hinted at. It made the narrative feel very flat and lacking real surprise.

[@dls3939]

Playing this gem of a game for the first time now, jumped in on hard mode too. I'm a fan of the first two films/books etc. and am having such a blast slinking around this world. Ill put it up there with alien isolation for fan service and sticking to source material. Made with love and respect.

I would say T1 and T2 are some of the best movies ever made. A lot of people hate T3 but it's actually a pretty good action movie, one of the last classic action movies with arnie that we'd ever get, but as a terminator sequel it is sort of a poor mans T2. Salvation is good but not really a good terminator movie. the last 2 are probably some of the worst movies of the last decade

Video game critics and "professional" critics generally have a very heavy novelty bias. If something isn't "breaking new ground" they rarely engage with it fully, and it's a laughably large disconnect this class of people has with pretty much everyone else. Most people are absolutely fine with some Kraft Mac N' Cheese and don't need every meal to be some hipster cut of steak served on a shovel and covered with glitter.

[@cookieface80]

Probably because they have to rush through games to write a review. If the game isn't noticeably stunning they'll be left underwhelmed, since they won't fully engage with a game's systems or notice smaller details.

[@MissiGNO000]

[@kal2045]

So excited for this studio's Robocop game to come out. With Terminator, they've demonstrated a lot of skill making licensed games that are fun for all and satisfying for the fans, and with Robocop I firmly expect them to, do a perfectly serviceable job. They're gonna do just enough. They're gonna make a 6.5/7 out of 10 Robocop game. That's all I could ask for. I love that. The world needs more cute little games that are good enough.

[@jayceneal5273]

Just something that's perfectly functional, not a high budget super polished game, it's just fun and you can tell the developers weren't trying to make a quick buck or something.

Couple years ago Jim Sterling, before he duffed it up entirely, made what I think was a very good argument for mid tier games like Terminator and Singularity. Not something trying to be revolutionary but something that just provides a good gameplay experience.

[@stardustsdd]

I know nothing about Terminator, so a lot of the explanations made no sense to me, but I still liked the video. It had been a while since a Nerrel video.

[@matthewmuir8884]

I can honestly say that I was not expecting this to be Nerrel's next video. I honestly would've expected a Metroidvania 4 or something like that.

[@MegatronJon8]

This has become a channel that I'll watch every single video from, regardless of if it interests me or not.

[@MavG]

I think there is a lot of guys like me (not old, but old school), when Nerrel talk about the small details you can sense he's right, because he is considering the factor TIME (or nostalgia). I've been playing Resistance, and yes, it's not polished, its not the best action game, its not the game you can expect to change industry, but i still want it to play it, because you get that emtoion about surviving.

i pirated this game when it came out cuz I didn't have much money, beat it, loved it enough to buy it on steam afterwards on sale just to support the devs

[@miguelhernandez6733]

Love your humor sense, man. Good video

[@Christopher-md7tf]

The Pumping Iron soundbyte 😂😆

[@Resuarus]

It's impressive to me that, in a franchise full of bad sequels, Genisys manages to stand out as especially awful.

[@LiquidSquidd]

Based video as always. Do more of these plz

Blessed Thumbnail. Submit to tingle

[@deven5982]

Babe, wake up. Nerrel posted a new video

[@DarthIckus]

I loved "Resistance" and have played it 10 times through, so far. It has its quirks and cringe moments, but the fan service does it far more justice than it's given credit for, as do the DLCs.

those are some n'ice puns at the end...

Another hall of fame thumbnail

[@smithwesson1896]

I hope we can get more and more support and content in this game

[@Chosen2axe]

Thanks for bringing this game to my attention put it on my steam wishlist and may pick it up on a sale. Seems like Terminater Resistance suffered the same fate as Alien Isolation, A good game tainted by bad IGN reviews.

[@jayceneal5273]

Yeah Alien Isolation is the closest I can think of to this game. Very faithful to the source material, and understands what was great about it. The stealth sections are actually pretty similar too, playing on the hardest difficulty with hud options turned off is very tense

[@AstralFrost]

Imagine if the team that made this game had a much bigger budget!

[@catmadethat]

Great review 👍🏽
