Hi, this is a fantastic and informative video! Your research and editing skills are solid, and I hope you are able to continue working on similar videos. I'm sure I'm not the only person to ask for sources - maybe a github link would be easiest to attach in the description. Nonetheless, I was wondering if you could point me toward that footage of the JCCE infranet used around 6:30?
A little fun Fact: One of the reason of isolation in communist country was because of Stalin, He was pretty conservative, nationalist and protectionist and fear foreign influence. Communist has expend the most during his era so that can explain a lots about all the mentality of their system. In North Korea they have a clone of the NES and no many games, but they have Street Fighter 2 and a lots of RPG inspire by Asian Folk (mainly Korean folk)
Had no idea North Korea had an NES clone, how did you find this out? When I tried to find info about North Korean gaming consoles I hit one hell of a brick wall lol And yeah Stalin really did a number on the USSR, not the best situation
you should credit some of the footage you used in this, i think any interested in this would be super interested in that cloth map video you used in the Cuba section.
@@cevatkokbudak6414i live in post soviet country (poland) and capitalism is not a problem. Living in comunism society is just pain food is for papers you need papers and money to buy food (and only limited amount) and to say only people that have connections to state can get a car more of paper to get the car
Half of the divergance is sanctions slowing adoption of gaming and the other half is people taking ages arguing on changing laws that hinder gaming once it gets past the sanctions
Although Yugoslavia was socialist and not on good terms with the rest of the eastern block i will still share this story. I live in Slovenia, and because we are next to Italy and Austria a lot of things from the west came through and into the country. My father got a copy of doom and said he played it so much he had to stop because it was effecting his grades collage. Many other games came to Yugoslavia and most were played on either imported computers or pc manufactured in croatia, Serbian and slovenia. They say one of these computers were so good Americans coming here were shocked by how similar in power it was to a macintosh, but that could be just propaganda. sorry for the horrible english, loved the video and highly underrated channel
Really cool video, I appreciate a lot you giving the pure information available and not going for the cheap anti-communist stuff people usually say in this kind of video, very informative and straight to the point
Yeah that’s a big reason I added Vietnam at the end, to show that it’s not really about the political ideology of the country but more the restrictions enforced by the government regardless of ideology. Glad you enjoyed though man, hope you have a good day
**talks about video games** "by the way guys, I really hate communism for ruining games, communists never made video games with any lasting effect, especially the USSR. As we all know, Capitalism breeds good video games, except the woke ones" - Some Video Essay guy or smth idk.
@@spaghetti0356 Lol, that or the much more subtle and somehow more annoying "The games in North Korea, the place with absolutely no freedom, where the government starves it's population and people can't smile, and the Soviet Union, where you could go to a Gulag for having a pair of socks" type of bs
My team and I never minded the try hards and the twitchers.. I mean it'd be nice if they didn't do that... However, what killed the game were the Cheaters. Teleporting ships, people seeing you through walls, unable to die no matter how many shots you unload in them, etc. That ruined the game.
I understand your point, but I disagree. There is no problem with there being try-hard players. For example, I have only played the game 15 hours and have no knowledge of maps, etc. I am tired of wiping huge clans and high levels/tryhards. The game is super easy to understand, to shoot and everything else. It just so happens that people have no idea about FPS games, especially those focused on "realism" or something like that, and end up getting frustrated playing. You can take COD as an example, which is an extremely arcade and crazy game, super easy to play, and when you get a lobby of 10 players in the room, 1 or 2 know how to move the basics and shoot, the rest are all high level with 0 skills.
And extraction games will always be full of Try Hards, Tarkov, Hunt, Arena, Marauders, etc. Your loot is the most important thing and to keep it you need to play well. What's the point of me limiting my gameplay or play style because of other players? It's like playing League of Legends and not playing Try Hard just because the opponent is bad, spare me. If someone doesn't like more "competitive" or "complicated" games, just don't play. Marauders is a wonderful game in my opinion. I don't feel unbalanced. I'm tired of killing armor 12 players with a K1, SVT, etc. using only a beginner Uzi and beginner clothes. I'M TIRED. So I don't know, I think it depends on the player, but naturally most people who play are bad. I think the truth is that Marauders is an unfair game.
And it doesn't make sense for you to complain that people are killing you when the objective of the game is very clear: LOOT, KILL AND EXTRACT. This even appears on the right side of the screen. I play the game to have a cool PvP. When I face players like you, I feel sad because Gunplay was probably lame and stupid. If you want to play a game to have fun and more or less in this style, go play DayZ. At least there it makes sense to form an alliance with strangers, but in extraction games it makes no sense at all.
This is pretty much my crew's experience. Got to be where we had to pre-hide in ambush positions every raid just to have a decent chance against the people whose only goal was climbing the killboard. A killboard. How about an extraction board instead? That would have made more sense.
Do people still play this? I'd rather play this to an alternative to Tarkov rather than Arena Breakout. this game had such a cool vibe. With the ww2 weapons and like space soldier fusion. really cool.
Unless they filter players based off some kind of rating system. This is inevitable in every pvp game like this. As much as we like the seemingly free and openess of the looter shooter. It's always going to be dominated by the most skilled and ruthless players. Which will drive off casuals and newbies every time. Granted it'd never be perfect. But really more of these type of games need some quality control for matches.
this kinda happened with Mordhau Mordhau still gets new players, but its mostly dominated by 4k+ hrs players just absolutely dominating pubs- this wouldnt be problematic if they werent so damn toxic or downright hateful.
Its because yall support Twitch!! Ive nevwr watch a stream or had an account because I knew at the start this was the bain of casual gaming, of course theyre gonna be sweety try hards when its all they do day in and day out!! If the streaming craze goes away youll see casual gaming come back into the world I guarantee it
