[@dolfyhilter577]

as an iranian, here is some insight on what happens in the gaming industry here: to put it simply, if an entertainment media has no propaganda in it, then it gets no funding by the government, so most companies or teams either work on small projects on mobile or get their funding from people who want to support these projects. The gaming scene was big in iran during late 2000s, with many games being dubbed in Persian by professional voice actors, it got so big that companies who do these dubs and distribute the games decided to make games themselves, and almost all of the games that are created are absolutely horrendous, it's always the bare minimum with little to no creativity, as if the devs don't know what makes games "Fun" to begin with, just mindless point and click shooting or walking for the most part, some however did well compared to rest of the well...junk, that was put out, but in the end once the age of digital downloading came it all went downhill for these companies, to the point that games were no longer being dubbed. For more context, since copyright laws don't apply in iran, people can just download any foreign game they want for FREE without any consequences, if anything piracy is actually encouraged here, because CD releases were no longer making profit all companies that were in the gaming scene slowly vanished, right now the biggest "Localization" comes in form of Persian subs for games, basically adding a persian option for all the texts in games, and i'm saying this because since games don't have an official persian localization team small companies or teams inside iran make these localizations instead. As of now most companies that are in the gaming scene only make mobile games, some of which are actually pretty good, even if they are just clones of other popular mobile games. (i hope i didn't make too many mistakes while writing this as i'm tired as hell, if you need more info or have questions about the entertainment or gaming industry in iran then i'm more than happy to answer.)

I'm Italian and I find these kind of games so fascinating despite how poorly they are made. This reminds me of Gioventù Ribelle, a commemorative game about the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy that was boasted to be made by the best Italian video game developers, endorsed by the Italian government and many other important labels... only to land as an unfinished demo made with UDK which kept almost all the original assets/sounds of Unreal Tournament 3, had glaring issues and you could actually shoot a T-posed Pope at the end of the demo. It was so glorious (sarcasm) that it was pulled out from the site in no time and they had to rectify it as a "school project made by some students". The head of this project, Raoul Carbone, also personally attacked any form of criticism, even going with these words: "If you can do better, you are welcome to try".

I'm an Iranian citizen. Sadly, the only game developers who get permission to publish their games are the ones that make games supporting the government's bullshit propaganda. And these government supporters aren't that smart. So... the result would be this mess of a game that as an Iranian, I didn't even know existed. We are under so much pressure from the rest of the world that we can't even legally purchase any game from steam, or any other platform for that matter. I know this pressure and all the sanctions regarding Iran are justified since the government is basically filled with corrupt people and terrorists, but it's not the citizens' fault since the majority of us are against the regime. A lot of Iranians love gaming, but we have no choice but to pirate the games that we love to play. I don't even know what the point of me saying all these things is, but I just wanted to vent, so don't mind me :)

[@thientuongnguyen2564]

Can't say I blame you or the people, but it's still funny to see the government shills who have not even looked at the game immediately call the video a "Western propaganda" or "Ukrainian psyops" when even people in poor countries can tell it's a PIECE OF TURD. Guess all that criticized the government-funded "game" are Ukrainian-American spies sent to "spy and destabilize Iran" or something.

As a student of history, I find it very ironic how the modern Iranian government exploits the memory of the 1953 coup (as in this game) in its propaganda. Mossadegh was a secularist who would’ve hated the current regime. In fact, much of the Iranian clerics supported the 1953 coup.

So, this looks like Mafia, crossed over with the Peaky Blinders TV show, crossed over with GTA San Andreas, crossed over with Broken Sword, crossed over again with some weird facsimile of 1950s London. Okay. The UK also never had police cars like that at any point in history, our police cars also only have blue lights. And to be fair, I've tried developing small games before. Third-person camera is a pain in the ass that will make you flip your desk, so my games were either top-down or first person. I never ever got third person working properly no matter what tutorials I followed and it wasn't worth the grief.

2:04 you slide the newspaper under the door, and then you push the spoon in the keyhole, and the key on the other side of the door will fall on the newspaper, and you can pull it out.

[@oktayyildirim2911]

4:13 Caliber is a measurement of a gun's bore diameter measured in inches. That doctor just said the case belongs to a pistol whose bullets are one and a half inches WIDE.

[@oktayyildirim2911]

Also, I liked the video, but apostrophes shouldn't be used to pluralize. For example, the plural of "NPC" at 7:56 should be "NPCs".

[@angoankhachai9333]

For the non-inchers here, that would be 3.81 centimeters aka 38.1 milimeters. Man got shot by a fucking autocannon lmao

[@Ridiric]

was looking for this comment, when i hear 1.5 caliber bullet i was like.... so... 3X a .50 BMG, thats a 38.1mm bullet! guy got shot by a small cannon! or a medium to large autocannon!

[@fleebogazeezig6642]

Perhaps they looked at the .455 Webley, which in metric designation is 11.55, and removed the first 1 and last 5 and referred to it in caliber designation? Idk

[@jailbreaker1214]

No, Thats not how it works. Every 1 caliber equates to 1/100 of an inch. so 1.5 caliber is .15 inches or about 0.35mm. I am a firearms expert and people like you need to stop making crap up on things you dont understand

[@retrorapture4079]

@ 8:32, they really cranked up the bloom on that doctor. I'm surprised the main character can even look at him directly without shielding his eyes.

[@CYTBlitz]

There’s a tiny part of me that wants this to be adapted into a film that is doggedly faithful to the original script, just to see the detective unlock a drawer by bouncing a metal ball off of the top of the desk.

[@FB3Network]

14:00 For those of you wondering the name of the AAA game he was talking about is, it is called "Safire Eshgh" (translates to "Ambassador of Love" in English). This is a third-person action adventure game very similar to Assassin's Creed, and the story takes place in the year 61 AH, and involves the "Mehran" of Ray, a Iranian man suffering from severe trauma. The game is very hard to purcahse as it is only available digitally on either GameUP or Hayoola, both of which are Persion / Iranian digital stores. The only way you can purcahse the game is to buy the game with Tomans, which is Iran's digital currency. And if you are unable to do that, then the only way you can experience the game is to watch videos of the game on KZbin.

4:14 1.5 caliber would be equal to around 38.1mm, if my math doesn't fail me. That's a canon.

[@JohnWilliamNowak]

Perhaps it's 1.5 cm, which would be a strange way to measure caliber. However, there do seem to be 15mm pistols designed to fire flares intended to frighten animals. They are called Scare Guns. Not disagreeing with you, and not suggesting the character was murdered with a firecracker, but it is funny.

[@Ridiric]

@@JohnWilliamNowak i mean there are also 40mm hand held grenade launchers and flare launchers as well, so... it could work if someone shot a solid slug out of one of those, but depending on the propellant load, it would either on the lower end just really freaking hurt but not seriously injure you, or on the higher end be unlikely to puncture your skin but be powerful enough to cause internal bleeding and broken bones. (by higher end, i mean higher end that is still fireable by hand, if you get into emplaced or mounted grenade launchers there are 40mm ones that would shoot right through a person and explode on the other side) Pretty damn sure whoever put that dialog into the game had no idea what 1.5 caliber is though, and probably thought that was a reasonable sounding size for a pistol projectile

[@EdyAlbertoMSGT3]

​@@JohnWilliamNowak To be fair, during WW2 some countries measured their canon caliber in CM. Soo there is at least a 0.1% chance our subject got murdered by a firecracker.
