The Ultima underworld guy made a 5 hour AoE3 video some time ago. 808 views atm.


Will I watch it? Maybe. I like to give attention to the little guys covering classic rpgs. He has videos on Wizardry and even Wizards&Warriors.

AoE 1 is a milestone and AoE 2 is the pinnacle of the series and still being played. 3 though? Haven't heard anything much about.

TLDR. AoE3 (if you don't count AoM) is also my favorite in the series, but I only watch those long videos for games that have a certain amount of controversy attached ala Fallout 4, Cyberpunk, or something. Games that I haven't played, but I'm interested in that mainstream meltdown about it.

All you need to do is play "Of Licious" in the background to get a retrospective of the series.



I think I was like 15 or 16 when I was addicted to this game. I was also drinking a lot of Rootbeer and this Big Red Vanilla Float thing... damn, I miss being a kid.

Graphics were beautiful and I liked the storyline. Again, soundtrack was just amazing.

I didn't care too much for AoE 2, tbh. Don't get me wrong, I liked it, but I wasn't addicted to it like AoE: 3 and AoM.

Not sure if Avalanche's survival horror series has been posted before. He should've skipped covering stuff everyone knows like SH and FF, and focused on the more obscure titles, but it's an interesting watch.

Not a great channel, he's annoying and I very rarely find his points valid.

I'm posting it because I'm curious what Desiderius thinks about it :shittydog:.

DWTerminator's videos suck, but he has a tendency to get his ass blistered in the comments section, which can be pretty entertaining in its own right.

Let me guess, he bitches that Kingmaker is way too hard and he gets assblasted by the mechanics, like needing to have protection spells?

Shame that almost no one recognizes Alone in the Dark (1992) the real originator of survival horrors (and RE clones).

It was NeverKnowsBest's second part of his Elder Scrolls analysis videos talking about Oblivion - for some reason it was removed and added again later, here is the new upload:



Like the first part i pretty much agree with it (i do have a reservation about a couple of things but nothing special). I found it amusing how for a large part of the video is a series of him going all "Oblivion had the ambition to do X for/because Y" in an almost praising positive tone only to turn into a more somber "...but it ends up failing/being pointless/shallow/etc because Z" later :-P.

Also i agree with his remarks about Shivering Isles.
I remember reading a lot of positive comments about it and how it was doing things right like Morrowind before it, yet when i played i was really disappointed because it still had this saturday morning cartoon feel - and as he said, Sheogorath *is* an overrated lolsorandom character :-P

Yeah I was always baffled by how many Oblobian critics cited SI as how it "should have been done".

Ambiguous Amphibian makes edited lps where he usually plays stuff with some sort of challenge attached. Such as his Kenshi solo torso start series called Torsolo and his recent Rimworld series about tribal starting in the desert
