Unravel Review

[@playstationtrophyguideskay738]

Just beat this game and I'm giving it a straight 10/10

[@preetgurung8382]

Playstation Trophy Guides KaYdeN_12 how are the trophies?

[@marcelodive]

Does it matter?

[@michaellongo2931]

Preet Gurung pretty straightforward and simple :)

[@Chromeno]

@@michaellongo2931 "pretty simple" *points at all the levels that contain too much relation into luck and rng* do you call these levels "levels you can beat without dying"?

[@playstationtrophyguideskay738]

Preet Gurung not too hard

[@charlieni645]

Here's a little survey: I'm a huge fan of platformers and kinda want to start a channel to specifically talk about the genre in modern day. I'm aware that platformers nowadays are usually indie or budget titles and rarely catch too much attention. So I want to know how many of you guys are interested in seeing such a video series. Thanks.

[@sweatyteddytaco9163]

I'd like it broski

[@EnderplaysXD]

Good idea

[@charlieni645]

Thanks for all of you's encouragement! I wants to do stuff in a review format. In each episode I'll review a platformer revolving a subject and under the assumption that my viewers all have some experiences with the genre. Currently, I feel many developers don't really understand what does Metroidvania means and make games that only scratch the surfaces of what made early 2D Metroid games and Castlevania games since Symphony great. I think it's a decent starting point to kick off some videos. What do you think?

[@charlieni645]

***** You know what? I haven't played any Rayman yet. Such a shame! I just finished Axiom Verge though. That game is the perfection of Metroidvania formula in my opinion.

[@JugglernautNr9]

+倪传历（AllenSpellwaver） i would follow you on youtube

[@Allamant22]

Too much feels: 8.3/10 c'mon IGN 9.0 at least.

[@akumukjn]

11/10

[@kurosakidaisy518]

I'm just glad they were open minded about it lol

[@kyand920]

This is the kind of game you play just to relax :D 10/10

[@lassilehtinen1]

Still a longer game than The Order 1886

[@Aribbonofsoundmen]

+Lassi Lehtinen HAHA Good one kid .

[@Rui19Jo]

+Lassi Lehtinen In fact The Order is like 6/7 hours long.

[@Frink77]

+Rui19Jo Speed run of 1/5 hours

[@soulslayer434]

+Frink77 a speedrun wouldn't be so inconsistent to be between 1 and 5 hours...

[@soulslayer434]

+Frink77 a speedrun wouldn't be so inconsistent to be between 1 and 5 hours...

[@svantlas6034]

WHY DIDN'T HE AT LEAST MENSION THE BEAUTIFUL SWEDISH MUSIC PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND THAT FITS SOOOOO WELL WITH THE THEME!!!

[@vgorous]

Love this game. I couldn't even watch the rest of the video to not spoil anything. Great puzzles, great presentation, and it also reminds me of little big Planet.

[@zartig09]

I played the free early access trial which had the first 2 levels with ea access and recently unravel was added to the vault so I decided I would play more because I enjoyed the trial. This game is amazing. Yarny shows real depth with his emotion and the visuals are beautiful. The puzzles and platforming aren't impossible but get harder over time. The only issue I have with this is that most of the small puzzles are extremely repetitive. They usually need you to move an object to help you climb higher or attach yarn to 2 knots to create a trampoline to let Yarny jump over an obstacle. The harder puzzles that require oh to think are much better but there aren't enough and instead they are replaced with the same puzzles I just mentioned. Also some puzzles require you to fail to understand the puzzle and others must be done in one attempt such as jumping from a falling ice tower to the next falling ice tower and then to the next. I would say this deserves a 8/10 just because of repetitive

[@zartig09]

Repetitive puzzles and some of the stages.

[@markusblomstrand92]

Way to spoil the fantastic swedish folk music by adding some generic simple jazz beat over the whole thing.

[@LosAngeles822]

I finally passed this game. Took me years. It was difficult. But satisfying. Gets easy towards the end but brutal in the middle.

[@ibrahimshahid7450]

Average first person shooter *gives cod 9.5

[@Aribbonofsoundmen]

+Ibrahim Shahid7 You must realize that two different people reviewed this an the cod games. Just because it is posted on the same site does not mean they all have the same opinion on scoring games.

[@shawklan27]

+error 123 just don't mind him....

[@agentbuizel9875]

+error 123 But the whole point on scoring is to compare games...otherwise its just an irrelevant number that has no use. Surely a channel should use the same scoring system so that you can compare different games because there is no point in reviewing if you have nothing to relate the number to

[@lovebaltazar4610]

+AgentBuizel "otherwise its just an irrelevant number that has no use" well you sure hit a jackpot right there. Scores are dumb, period.

[@agentbuizel9875]

+minigunexo He's just expressing his opinion he doesn't need to 'get over it' he's just showing how ridiculous the scoring itself is

[@tiktokexposed898]

Why did t you mention the beautiful soothing music?

[@XxJayandTomxX]

I honestly got this game because I knew the developers that made it put their whole heart into. It honestly made playing the game feel so much better because you could see their love for their character and the world they created for him. Unravel is a game that conveys the passage of life. People and moments we love will come and go during our lifetime but that doesn't mean we can't still enjoy it by being thankful for the small things.

[@isaiah_wilson]

Dang, I'm gonna cry over a ball of yarn...what am I doing with my life.

[@tinkiewinkie6056]

"Where are the guns and explosions?" -Every 12 year old who sees this game

[@ligsty8279]

"Aha, I lile theese types of games." -Me, a 13yr old

[@hugofromthewijk2007]

I’m a 12 year old right now. I don’t like shooters. This is my favourite game. When i tell my friends this is my favourite game. Their common reaction is: “what the heck? This looks awful!”. And that makes me pretty sad! I hope i’m not the only 12 year old like this!

[@Baytuh]

Can't wait to play this.

[@sharsasuke01]

Background music seems kinda out of place.

[@Ree1981]

+Duke Yeah it's not from the game. Weird choice.

[@project_X_design]

Or maybe you just have a bad taste

[@Ree1981]

Do you walk up to strangers and tell them they have bad taste in music too? Because you just did to me.

[@LeinadCasey]

+Ree1981 If the comment wasn't directed towards you, then it wasn't for you. He was replying to the op. Now, this a statement directed towards you - you are not that important.

[@omegapng]

+LeinadCasey He could have been talking about either of them, both comments conveyed the same general message, stating the the music was "out of place" or "weird", especially considering Wataa! didn't actually put a tag on who he's referring to. It is odd how he said that they had bad taste, though, considering neither of them said that the music in question was "bad", but that it was out of place, which I agree with.

[@marinpaul398]

anyone still remembers the guy who showed this game at e3?

[@Irrelevant_Interests]

I will buy just for him ";)

[@miguelnieves9864]

only reason Im interested in the game

[@Irrelevant_Interests]

+Michael Snow u now nothing michael snow

[@antikdoli1424]

Well I still remember it cuz that guy was the only person who cared about his game more than anyone at E3

[@Chris-sm6cr]

+Marin Paul a dev with a heart ;)

[@jacobreed47]

This game will remain in my mind for a while after completion. And I enjoy that. 9.1/10

[@user-wo5tc9ux7u]

My cousin came a few days ago but I didn't have any games that he enjoyed and the ones he wanted to play were to mature for him. So we went to the store and found this. I am so glad we bought it now. And it's nice and cheap for such an amazing game. But how did IGN only give it 8.3? It should've got 8.8 - 9.0!

[@user-wo5tc9ux7u]

*too

[@tiktokexposed898]

Yea

[@reddog8551]

cool

[@DeathTempler]

Wow, a good, honest IGN review that focuses on some of the greatness of the game and doesn't allow a few small hinderings to destroy the overall score. Good job!

[@lycheeman2419]

is the firewatch review up soon? still cannot decide between them.

[@StretchNEra]

Unravel is a great game, very challenging and hands down one of the best looking platforms for the new console.

[@YourManJazzie]

The game is a platformer with "average platforming"... 8.3 - IGN

[@danieltentori7523]

its from IGN what can you expect

[@DapaChrons]

well he's right, it's not a very good platformer - more abt the experience than anything else

[@callum6224]

Yeah it is more about the vibe of the game, and the story, it's not supposed to be a tight Mario like platformer

[@supervideomaker9136]

Definitely going to try and get this game. Been interested in it ever since its e3 reveal.

[@channe3049]

This game is a true piece of ART from Electronic Arts....

[@bobo42024]

On sale for $4until March 18 2020

[@acu03]

Still more content then battlefront

[@extremepostyo5242]

The game looks stunning , some of the concepts were probably copied from the kirby yarn games and Yoshy's wooly world . Despite that I think they are giving Nintendo a real run for their money comparing this to their wool/yarn/clay animation titles .

[@sakuragi1062]

+EXTREMEPOSTY O what about little big planet????when i see this i thought some concept were copied from little big planet specially the engine and the looks! and some level design too look 2:04

[@extremepostyo5242]

Christoper Bacani never played little big planet

[@Irrelevant_Interests]

this looks like limbo but more vibrant and cheerful

[@ChibagamingJP]

lol if anything its like little big planet

[@amjiva]

+ChibaGaming JP Looks far better than Little Big Planet. I think say it's Limbo mechanics meets Little Big Planet style would be pretty accurate.

[@LL-pp5hy]

what's the game on PS4, X-Box 1, all of them?

[@truthbetold6496]

The graphics are great the story is touching, the problem with a lot of comments i read is that the game is frustrating. Its not a mediocre game far from it , but you will get stuck you will have to redo a lot of levels and the last level will either make you quit the game or have patience and continue, for now i decided to stop playing. Good thing it was only 20$ on the PS4

[@zach8569]

Was not expecting to love this as much as I did

[@kjj367]

this game looks awesome , i will give it a try

[@urutoratk9098]

Where do I buy this game it's not on steam D:

[@gavinblack6657]

This is the dude who was super shaky at e3. Props to you for actually caring for your game

[@kajeralocse]

Why is the score so low?

[@marcusblixenkrone-mller7169]

Should I pick up Unravel or Firewatch?

[@El_Diego86]

Unravel

[@militanthd6484]

Do it have platinum trophy or gold?

[@margaretlee2571]

what console is this game on?

[@awesome1ru]

how mush hours?

[@garrettkidney]

Why can't games with a strong story also have good gameplay too?

[@nickthemage2052]

Well I mean there is Halo (before 5), Uncharted, Tomb Raider, Fallout series, The Witcher, The Arkham series, etc... so hope isn't really lost yet!

[@garrettkidney]

+Joe Betz I LOVE the Uncharted games but they have to most basic cover shooting gameplay possible.

[@ricochet628]

+garrettkidney yeah it does I think U4 is changing it up a little bit

[@NSFSponsor]

+Joe Betz The last Fallout and Arkham games had a terrible story.

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

+garrettkidney To be honest he never said the gameplay was bad. The only bad thing I heard was regarding the platformer elements and if Megaman and Shovel Knight are allowed to get away with that I can certainly give this one a chance.

[@totalytaco3715]

it's like pikmin 3 and yoshi's wooly world combined

[@eddimeek]

Im glad this games good. The creator seemed like such a nice bloke at E3 when this was announced.

[@vaultboy-repair6799]

score is a bit low but that is my personal opinion

[@gamerplay8922]

+VaultBoy-Repair should have been lower

[@Chris-sm6cr]

+gamerplay why i like the game

[@davidb9036]

They're adding this to the vault July 12th, and I almost just bought it, it would have been BF4 premium all over again.

[@GamerGod209]

IGN please stop making me watch the 30 second Lego Star Wars ad every video.

[@Raddish-Is-Radd]

4:37 that's like every ign video

[@paulielamont6739]

Was on the fence waiting for IGN to post review, im sold now. Looks like a great weekend run to relax to and get away from FPS for a min. Def wanna support Coldwood Interactive although EA is the Devil.

[@simonphoenix2307]

Is it 2 player or just the sequel 2 player?

[@mrpotat8028]

This game is free to download at Origin (10h) for them who wanna test before buying. I want this! :D Thanks for the review IGN.

[@Engel990]

Would have bought it if it wasn't published by EA.

[@iAmViking94]

lol, i feel ya bro

[@Aribbonofsoundmen]

+Engel Ok.

[@SteveJonesGamingGWO]

Meh

[@Quazygotbangers]

+Engel Come on ...Support the devs not the publisher

[@kyledenson1287]

your really robbing yourself of something good

[@sonicrulez0830]

How is this a "average platformer"

[@devmiles]

the graphics and atmosphere look truly amazing!

[@Riskiamo]

Just finished it. It's at least a 9. Beautiful game.

[@rossfancher9096]

just downloaded this! i love it.. the music is gorgeous. some great puzzles.

[@chrovo7133]

10/10 I finished the whole game it was amazing

[@RetroGamingBlog]

Are there microtransactions? It's EA right?

[@channe3049]

No DLC, No micro transaction.

[@RetroGamingBlog]

I saw and purchased :) Great game!

[@NoWhereMan95]

It's like 4 quid on PSN right now.

[@ninjanick5216]

Why 8.3????

[@swfcfan2318]

Love this game ,would be perfect if u could create and share lvls online but there's not much replay value it already needs dlc.

[@babbisp1]

_"This game really makes you FEEL like a twine."_

[@Darkerxz]

All I want is for this game to sell well.

[@AnimeHDFights]

he kinda looks like a pikmin

[@tonykey7298]

this game makes me feel gentle and fluffy and kind

[@derelict33]

They gave us money. 11/10 -IGN

[@yoyo-nf1ww]

xDDDD

[@TheAJKahn]

I liked *Gamespot* review for this game. This review is all over the place.

[@twin2TV]

I don’t think Little big Planet 4 would have a chance. This feels so similar.

[@SilentLulamoon]

This looks like it was made in the Little Big Planet level creator

[@AcornGranades]

It's between this or Firewatch. This or Firewatch. This... or Firewatch...

[@WeeDy-qm9it]

I have EA access and I got it early I give it a 9/10.. a beautiful fun and charming game...

[@antonioisacommonname6550]

can you buy this game at gamestop?

[@ratsarereal]

Why would you?

[@antonioisacommonname6550]

+Keifer Stovall why wouldn't I

[@ratsarereal]

Antonio Cartagena Cause you can just buy it from your console right now and pre download it.

[@antonioisacommonname6550]

+Keifer Stovall yea i know you can do that with almost any game but thats the only way you can get it?

[@danieljones2850]

I cried after I used the photo album, I'm very emotional XD

[@atomikduke]

It is now included in EA Access

[@JSPUFC]

Happy that nervous guy's game got a great review

[@Muhyee00]

This is why I love playstation.. They are such a diverse platform

[@sRtAoIrNm]

wow, I told myself if it got higher than an 8 i would consider getting it. now i have to consider getting it.

[@guyinazo]

Already preordered, downloaded and I cannot wait to play it

[@ricollomaxo1324]

By IGN logic (not intending taking any credit from this game), this game is a better game, than the Deadpool movie is as a movie

[@Boolus]

To be honest, maybe it is.

[@ricollomaxo1324]

paussi00 go on rotten tomatoes and look at deadpool's score, and then go on metacritic and look at unravel's score. And please, let's not start a debate, pls man

[@acidrain92]

+Ricollo Pool Why is the concept of an opinion so foreign to IGN users?

[@ricollomaxo1324]

Retribution892 I just don't think they should have scores based on a single person, for the matter of opinion, they should probably take various scores from people in the office, and then they should average the scores, anyway, let's stop, it's silly to talk about this

[@Aribbonofsoundmen]

+Ricollo Pool Different people reviewed this an Deadpool FFS IGN is not done by one person.

[@wingisland]

Hey sackboy * You have a new friend. XD

[@pastilance1]

The game is absolutely stunning!

[@gabrielbrazeau1055]

It looks like a pixar movie! And its great!

[@masterofreality2384]

IGN in a nutshell:Unravel: Not a platformer to revolutionize gaming; 8.3 out of 10. Black Ops 3: 10/10 most amazing game ever made ohmygod was TOTALLY different than the last one in every way possible. Smh

[@AlexRocks80s]

Reminds me of Inside and Limbo. Its $5 on psn. definitely a buy.

[@SPanishBeaner]

Wtf does 8.3 mean?

[@TheKeithvidz]

love how the background in the distance blurs and you're forced to a close up perspective

[@OrangeExorcists]

Ign can review Unravel but can't review Naruto Storm 4 and Digimon Story.... ok IGN lol

[@iudexe3103]

no time for weaboo shits

[@uzzamnasir8573]

Because this is an indie game published by ea while people have hear through e3 while those games are more for the niche

[@OrangeExorcists]

rahman hakim lmaooo

[@sirrparker47]

+rahman hakim You do know metal gear is a Japanese game?

[@alvarohernandez4557]

+Sirr Boss just because something is Japanese doesn't mean it has anything to do with weaboos

[@xdrew84x]

This game was actually very good, great visuals

[@GINSHINKZLs]

IGN reviewing standards appear to be going back up with this, Xcom and Firewatch

[@GINSHINKZLs]

+GINSHINKZL s Except maybe the score is slightly generous given that the platforming is supposed to be meh

[@JugglernautNr9]

+GINSHINKZL s the platforming itself is ok, nothing too special though. the game lives from its beauty, nature, melancholy and puzzles

[@scuffz100]

reminds me of Mr. Fantastic Fox

[@WobstaCat]

this is what the new chibi robo should have been like

[@shawnkemp6775]

Is this a mobile game?

[@cheddarmakidorito-reviewna7743]

Where are the Ghouls?

[@phajduk86]

Damn the witness or this... witness it is..

[@markostamenkovic8350]

+Ph Ph Witness, Firewatch and Unravel, im getting em all.

[@diegoharkenbusch5904]

I just bought this game. Is such a beautiful piece of art.

[@andyf123]

Is this the peak of gaming for some people, or indies in general? This might be something you'd play for an hour if you're bored.

[@jayvir6]

+Andy F It's obviously you. Just because you don't like the type of game, it doesn't mean others won't.

[@andyf123]

jayvir6 I didn't deny them being somewhat enjoyable. I was asking if it was the peak of gaming for some.

[@soulslayer434]

+Andy F what is your idea of a game that is the "peak of gaming" for you

[@andyf123]

soulslayer434 High production quality. There are games I don't particularly enjoy but I still understand why people would, but they aren't cheap side-scrollers with a small team behind them. To compare and equally praise these indies to Fallout, Skyrim, GTA, WoW, CS, Dark Souls etc. is almost criminal to me.

[@SpicyNoodlesYum]

+Andy F to praise or equally compare? no one is comparing just cus one game got a 8 another got a 9 dosent mean u can compare them score wise. they are there own different thing. comparing this go skyrim is stupid why would u? it's there own thing

[@alcaponejr79]

A 30 second un-skippable ad?! No thanks.

[@cardiacade]

Excellent review, totally sold on this.

[@christianjustin20]

I like Ori I think I might enjoy this too.

[@Impossiblegend]

Did you?

[@TristanHoule]

Can't wait to play this one day!

[@ark14700]

It's ironic because yarnie is littering nature with yarn
