King Henry VIII actin' ass

hail to the king, baby

You could always butt chug.

An* English, do you know it?

@@alerojas2952I’m keeping it

You might check out grimbeard he has some pretty odd intro's and bits

i mean yea that and we could be living in anyone of the multiverse that have been displayed on this show since i think the world has ended 2 or 3 times across all the videos i honestly don't remember

Civvie 12 could *probably* do it, but it would still be kinda weird

I skip his lore skits, personally, so all I'm getting is gameplay either way.

I mean, Grim Beard does something similar, although he leans more into goth shut-in gamer aesthetic

*Unbelievable! This is not **-Butter-** Build Engine!*

"F*k Me It's Not idTech?"

​@@youmukonpaku3168lmao

SHIT, IT’S NOT SOURCE!

@@orvilleredenpiller338 Not Unreal, for real?

Topical.

Play the original Dune please, the original, not the Westwood genre-establishing-masterpiece, but the unknown French take, I guarantee it still holds up.

He who controls the nazrium controls the universe.

But what about Hubbardium?

@@terrylyn "Can't find any sietches... ohhhhhh, I should have had someone ride along in the ornithopter, okay, now I get it..." And also, "Why do we have to deal with these asshole southern Fremen you sent to work here? We don't like them and they don't like us. Sincerely, northern Fremen."

Sounds like a KOTH YTP

press q and move along

I actually google this fakin thing. did not help

@@MrKrisstain lol

Friends today don't even say "pass the shush" anymore, they just look at you like this 🫲😒

Hey, if it makes you feel better, I'm one of those blasted _youths_ and I remember both Gameinformer and Gameinfarcer. Good times.

My best group of online friends all met on the EGM forums starting back in the early 2000s. We still hang out online, some live in the same states now. Anyways, videogame mags ruled and were such a critical piece of building the hobby and community.

I remember tuning my commodore 64 tape player lol

'member? I 'member!

The Doom-killers and the Doom-clones.

It never crashed on me, on the contrary it was a sign of quality that the game had enough memory. Maybe Civvie could not afford a proper 486/Pentium and emulated the whole thing

@@terrylynMaybe it was the level editor crashing, those things were notorious back in the day. Editing along and suddenly - BAM! DOS4GW error and now you're stuck in low res text mode. The typical process was to have many different versions of your map file in case the editor crashing took one out and you lost heaps of progress.

I never played this game and this is the first time I heard the game. But I think I were saw A LOT OF the DOS/4GW crash screens on other games back then when I had 486 machine, like 25+ years ago. Oh, good'ol memories. Yeah. it was goddamn scary when that crash happens.

IndyCar Racing...

I think you were doing something fundamentally wrong then. Like having DOS set up badly or "exotic" hardware (looking at you, Soundblaster clones) with faulty drivers. Saw the general protection fault under DOS exactly two times back in the day; once while installing something on top of a memory manager and another time caused deliberately by one of my own tools during development. edit: three times actually, thanks to DOSBox. Emulation is always a gamble.

more informations about the engine or development would be neat

Men, your dad its a legend, for the love of God, ask him what kind of ancient and Lovecraftian engine the game was programmed in. Pretty please.

It was built in a proprietary engine that was made specifically for the game. I don't know what the actual name was, but it was referred to internally by some folks as "Froggy", because the original pitch for the game was actually about a 3rd person attempt at a Frogger-like game.

@@Volcraftcowow, thanks to answer, now I asked myself how that frogger game would have turned out XD.

I actually feel kinda bad for anyone who worked on this game only to have quake come out and completely steal the show lol.

I have been attempting to create an edit of Bubsy buffing his face off for years and now was the time to unleash it.

​@@Civvie11Well, you fucking nailed it, I'm glad this is what my money goes to

​@@Civvie11Based AFH 🤘

🏆

@@Civvie11It's unironically a better edit that most analog horror shit too, good job.

"Watch the fuck out, citizens of Bubsy Land. Captain Bubsy's drunk as shit again and heavily armed with puns"

@@theicepickthatkilledtrotsk658 I think Bubsy Land is next to Mobius

I'll remind you about bubsy next month

#EyesOnBubsy

Bubsy always comes back

Not enough people know about that mystical, anime-Marathon-Wolf3D-inspired game. It's full of interesting ideas, and it even beat Total Overkill to the idea of a minigun-flamethrower hybrid weapon. Seems like it'd be just up Civvie's alley.

@@Chewberto Getting over the guro is rough and I don't blame anyone for flushing it for that (even when you can turn it off you know it's there) but the game is actually really deep mechanics wise. Also the fucking game crashes all the time lol. Beyond Citadel is looking promising tho but again that guro hurdle is there.

@@Skuttie I wouldn't really say that the game has guro, per se, it just features gory violence against anime girls. Guro implies that the violence is sexualized in some way, which I never really found to be the case. That being said, I can definitely understand why the violence ingame would be seen offputtingly close to guro. I think the general idea that the game has guro comes from the fact that it uses an anime artstyle with extreme ultraviolence against characters who happen to be female, which often occurs in guro but isn't exclusive to that stuff. The developer himself even made a statement that it wasn't meant to be guro. The game crashing is spot-on, though, especially in levels with the destructible environments.

​@@Chewberto The weird thing is that its usually interchangeable. Not that I've wanted to see that stuff but when you browse imageboards for long enough it's interchangeable.

wtf is guro

that's crazy, I would have bet my life this was Build

I feel sorry for the devs, losing a potential lead because they released so late... and they clearly gave it a fair shot, not a crappy cash grab attempt. They did try.

it looks a lot like marathon but that was mac only back then to my knowledge

It still had a short lived life in Europe as Quake came out later for us and it worked at LAN pretty decent. Quake ended up overtaking it pretty quickly though.

@@wearecoterminousokay, good, I'm not the only person looking at this and thinking Marathon. It was (and to my knowledge other than Aleph One still is) Mac-only, but I wonder if they used it as a starting point?

It is a filtered arrangement of fart noises.

Like Toxic Crisis!

oh lord in heaven dont tell me hes replacing the sewer count sound for good

@@disposable_income_andy Yes he is -_-. He doesn't like the joke and wants us to know he doesn't care.

"Er, should I confront, pummel, and subdue the suspected perpetrator, Sam?" "Sic 'em up, little buddy" The comics are also pretty enjoyable. And there are Telltale sequels that range from good to passable.

Would be fun to see him do a vid on this game and other LucasArts classics. Passable?

This isnt the first time he has referenced SaMHtR

I uhh, think I might have understood the logic "Eradicator? This will get rid of all those darn viruses my damn grandson keeps installing!"

...but who was Jetpack Larry?

@@universalperson Lore Accurate Answer: Everyone called Larry has a jetpack. It says so in the bible. Real Answer: A custom sprite edit using Duke3d bits by Captain Toenail.

@@TheKins thank you reelism maker

Yeah deadlock… that’s what I remember Accolade for in my childhood. It was my first intro to a deep tech tree and turn based…

This is probably sacrilege but Eradicator held my attention for way longer than Marathon ever did.

​@@asystole_ confirmed sacrilege but understandable because it's significantly less esoteric and cryptid-brained than Marathon was lmfao

THE COMPUTERS PROBABLY NOT WORKING RIGHT BECAUSE YOU PLAY ALL THOSE GAMES ON IT

I think he messes it up on purpose, for the gag lol

Having "too many weapons" is not exactly a unique thing. Duke had trip bombs that had very limited uses and the freeze thrower which was your crappy Ripper Cannon alternative. Half Life had Snarks and the Hive Hand. Granted, those games didn't go as all out as Akklaim's Eradicator.

I enjoy too many weapons and too many right-click functions but they have to be decent quality

Doom TC mod. Make it happen!

I don't mind when a game has a boat load of weapons. Just as long as I'm able to choose or reassign them as needed.

@@AB0BA_69 Hey I used the Hive Hand! \o/

Shit. I swear I did that last month.😮

you're supposed to hide that kind of behavior in public

Oh, In Pursuit of Greed would be very cool.

@@CesarGarcia-lg7nm I would love to see one for Killing Time since a guy named Tristan855 is working on porting the PC version to GZDoom that will require the original files to play and it will be moddable. It will include improvements like fading effects for the ghost FMVs like in the 3DO version, cut ambient sounds, and many other improvements.

Radix is one of those games that I tried the shareware version of and never touched again, but it is still a core memory somehow

Hope the next ones are obscure yet surprisingly good non-abandonware installments that aged like wine.

@@michaelandreipalon359 Killing Time is one of those if you ask me.

so level editor is unfinished

@@boryolmung9548 Or that they were trying to try "it's easier to work without noise". Or both.

I thought "pass the shush" was some sort of obscure drug phrase, like a regional term for sharing weed or sleeping pills because you need to chill out. It's probably because shush sounds like kush.

She can’t play quake because she’s not real

​@@HC-qc5rpSHE'S REAL TO ME!!!

@@HC-qc5rp she does because Katy is Civvie

Who is this Katy? CV-9's name is Katie

@@HC-qc5rpthat's what you want to Believe.

On the same kinda subject, Accolade also made Zero Tolerance for the Mega Drive, their “other” FPS that Civvie doesn’t mention. It was ported to modern consoles recently by Qubyte. It was jank back when it came out, and the port doesn’t make it any more… tolerable.

​@@TheTCDTo be fair it was kind of impressive that they pulled that game off on the Genesis.

@@Gatorade69 oh, yeah, I’m not taking anything away from them, the fact that it even works as well as it does is impressive. I just feel like they could have made it a little less clunky even back then, and the modern port does very little to help modernise it. For instance, (if I recall, I haven’t booted it up in ages) in the port you can play the cancelled sequel, and that has (janky) dual analogue controls available. But they don’t allow you to play the original game with them. It’s a bizarre choice.

In Pursuit of Greed. The publisher only sold it for a few months in early '96 and I missed out on it until I finally bought the full version on E-bay 18 years later haha. Before that, I just played the share ware of it. I always liked that game. Other games of that era that are similar are Cybermage and Chasm: The Rift. I'm pretty sure me, Nametag and only a few others even know of Cybermage but Chasm is a bit more known. They're all great games if you ask me.

The TED engine makes sense. My first thought was it looks very similar to whatever engine they built Descent on, and lo and behold, the guys who made Descent used to work for Looking Glass, who made the TED engine.

⁠@@JburnageNo they didn’t. The two primary programmers on Descent NEVER worked for Looking Glass. I have no idea where you got that idea. Matt Toschlog is the only person who worked at both studios & he had a limited role in developing the DOS4GW libraries for the port of the UW engine to System Shock. That’s a drastically different role than engine design or programming.

Are you sure? I don't think TED has anything in common with the Mechwarrior2/Dark Side (Activision) engine. Heavy Gear, Interstate '76 and Battlezone also used that one. It looks pretty similar though, yeah.

Meh they can't find a way to micro transactions so they won't do it :(

This was a very fun and atmospheric game. And it had multiplayer, by the way. And it is not even remotely as janky and frustrating as ROTT.

Just resurrected my old Pentium 75

It's all about the Pentiums baby!

I had a comment asking to elaborate and then deleted it and then you edited to elaborate so thank you.

9 month baby after duke 3d. also looks like system shock engine.

era dictated, shovel ware jank, its called premonition, pre-money freedom

idk if this was any model for serious sam, feels the same

I thought the same. I love the intro when that shows up and then the mechanical doors shut close.

"Oh, thank god it's you!"

Frog blast the vent core!

Great comic. Okay game.

DW Bradley had a lot of potential, sadly vanished from the industry after dropping Dungeon Lords, a ToP 5 worst RPGs in the history... His Wizardry games are fire, Wizards&Warriors ain't too shabby either

Got stuck somerwhere and never finished it, though.
