Centaura | Skit Reviews 

I love how Centura shines in its brutality. 1. When the armored cars begin to burn (and you are close enough) you can hear the operator screaming in pain, trying to get out. 2. In Blackton, there are dead civilians everywhere along with an alone child who survived the bombardment and cries whenever you get close. 3. The screaming from being burned alive…. my god. 4. Soldiers are expressive, yelling things like “ARTILLERY! HIT THE DECK!” Or “AGH! IM BLEEDING FAST. HELP ME!” 5. The artillery casually turning my teammates to red mists ☕️

the thing that i like most about centaura is how it depicts war, its not all glory and music and heroic charges, its people screaming for their lifes and going deaf at the sound of artillery, the fact that on the town map there is a civilian girl crying in a corner during the battle shows you what the game is trying to get across to the player, it isnt trying to glorify war it is trying to make war despicable, disgusting and horrifying, i also do love the sound design a lot.

The whole point of the simple killfeed is that it doesn’t care about what team killed what. It is saying that someone lost their life.

Fun fact to those who didn’t know: Centaura is a prequel to another game that skit reviews went over: Dead Ahead. In fact, Centaura was made by the same person who also made Dead Ahead. Sadly for me and a bunch of other fans though, Dead Ahead ceased development before it could get out its final update, in favor of Centaura. God I miss that game :(

I believe that the killfeed doesn't need work as it has a poetic portrait of the anti-war message this game has. It shows that it doesn't matter which team killed the most people, how they killed them or even when. It matters that people died in a battle that might've not even been won by them. A fight gone in vein. A life gone in vein.

I once learned more about the lore of Centaura and Dead Ahead, according to Centaura, there was a Antarean family known as the House of Tau, basically Kalvin Tau was creating an empire of Antares and had two children, Aran Tau and Andrew Tau, he eventually died during the Centauran war due to health complications and his son, Aran took over, he put his children into the military. Aran's known children was Maya and Kaden. Maya was the firstborn child to Aran and was kinda mean to Kaden, she would constantly bully her younger brother just to be in line to the Antarean Throne and was known to marry a Corvun following the success of conquering Cetus. She seemed to have joined the Navy with interest starting from ensign and flying up the ranks to captain which Aran seem to be skeptical about her choices, during the Riann campaign she died to a Riann fighter strafe in 1938 (lore wise), Aran started to mourn but Kaden seemed to be okay with the loss without any negative expressions because of witnessing the horrors of war on land. Kaden was the youngest child in the Tau Family, Kaden can be usually seen as the least evil member of the Tau family, he was basically the first son to Aran Tau and was basically in line of his throne which because of this, he got bullied by Maya due to her jealousy. Although Kaden didn't seem to mind to be a future king, Aran Tau thought that by putting relatives into military and politics, they would be more loyal and simp for the Tau family, Maya seemed to join the navy without hesitation while Kaden would be coerced to join the Army. During his deployment, he was basically a Company Commander where he witnessed his company all get wiped out, he'd even witness the Antareans committing pretty bad stuff to the Rianns for putting up very hard resistance and killing Maya Tau. After the war in Centaura, Kaden was classified as a seasoned veteran During events of Dead Ahead, Antares was canonically losing the war and now Orion troops are pouring out on land, Kaden would soon surrender with his army which inspired many troops of Antares to follow suit, some were even accepted to assist with the Orion Army. Kaden would find Aran Tau who got captured in 1961 lore-wise, who would then be executed for being responsible for the war. Aran's wife would be spared but died during imprisonment, while Andrew (brother of Aran Tau) was spared and pardoned under request by Kaden Tau. Kaden would become emperor as a title but his PTSD and depression from the wars he fought and wasn't ready to become emperor made him commit suicide, leaving a note that read: "Mankind will not change." he was then being succeeded by Andrew Tau, the status of the family likely had been concluded and probably ended.

Honestly, since this game plays out in the dead ahead universe. It just goes to show the difference between the army and the navy. In the navy you sail around fight sum other ships and yay after a year you‘re back home. In the army, boy o boy, you use your friends, your father, your sanity, you get ptsd, you will probably loose a limb or go deaf and then you won‘t be able to adjust to day to day life anymore. Hell yea.

Let’s be real. We all only play this game to get ptsd on the gridlock map. When I first played it because of the wierd lighting I thought it was a beach and literal saving private Ryan references because of how much was going on, just goes to show how great this map is.

Fun fact: (disclaimer, long comment due to Centaura having an update) Centaura its currently having a new map under devolpment, Monus Planus, an area used for farming in Southern Cetus, contended between the Anteres Imperium and the Cetus army, currently its in testing, with the gamemode being similiar to Capry valley, with the difference being the addition of armoured cars, the testing is played each evening (at least for my timezone GMT+1) and currently the two farms can be burn down if set on fire, with even the cows being heard in one of em, also, Cetus is getting uniform re-work with the recent testing of Monus Planus having the navy infantry instead of the land soldiers, and ngl, i played with Anteres and we got owned, ig the navy really is better than the army with Cetus

Aint no way you pulled up my old mate's art for this. If anyone is interested HandsnDeck also did fanart for other games like Blood and Iron and things. We dont talk much anymore but id love to see him return to the friend group, but its super lovely to see people acknowledging his amazing works!

Small detail you may have missed about Blackton (unless it was removed) I remember there was actually AI civilians hiding behind the crates and such, and they looked horrified whenever you got near them, it's certainly amazing attention to detail imo.

The development team for Centaura is currently working on the Southern Front update which is gonna include new maps, Antares, and I believe Aquila. If you check the wiki there is a lot of planned content.

This guy covers almost every game I play

Centuara is basically a Realistic version of Roblox Trench.

No other ww1 game I’ve ever played as depicted the horrors of trench warfare as good as centaura , Like seeing your entire team getting blown up by artillery as you make a mad dash for the trench is traumatic

Not only is the Centaura-Dead Ahead universe pretty dark under the surface, the game does an excellent job portraying; especially to Roblox, a platform with so many impressionable kids; that war isn’t like how it is in movies or games, World War 1 and World War 2 for instance had more than 100 million people around the globe meet ends in some of the most grizzly ways possible that is barely covered in movies and games, and survivors were left scarred for the rest of their lives

Fun fact: centaura somehow counts as a horror game and theres 2 easter eggs on the blackton map The 1st can be easily found as theres a man crying over his dead wife body in one of the alleyways and the 2nd one is near the corvus spawn and when you enter the alleyway on the right you can see a dead civilian and behind some crates in the corner theres a child hiding behind the crates and will interact if you get too close to her Also you could kill her but it counted as a war crime and that gave centaura its 1st ban Now you cant kill her

Grenadiers are extremely useful at Capri Valley when pushing the final point, since players like to hide at the entrance of the trench, you can throw your grenades in to quickly clear a path and cap the point

You should do another review once the Southern Frontier update releases :) Can't wait for the premiere

The whistle actually increases the speed of a group of people (only works when 5 or more people are around when whistle is blown) Edit: to know if the speed boost actually works when you blow the whistle around people you will hear a war cry means the speed boost is working

I think the whistle can -increase damage- for every player nearby the officer once the whistle is used, but there must be more than 4 player for it to work.

the officers whistle can sometime trigger a like a charge scream in gridlock which i love to do in like older versions of the game people would actually charge when the whistle is blown but nowadays basically no doing the anymore i always feel motivated

Capri Valley is a bloodbath. I once was part of a pretty organised public server with actual communication and tactic. We had 2 officer leading 2 platoons and we all agreed to either form lines and defend the trench or organise a charge to destroy the enemy trenches. This went on for about 50 minutes until we got overran by the cetans. We were on our last defense UNTIL...By some miracle we captured the objectives one by one and we won...75 minutes and 6000+ deaths later...we defeated the cetans... (i also love how bad the artillery is, the entire time our own artillery kept destroying our team and not the enemy. There was one barrage in particular in wich our entire team died except 3 guys including me)

This is his best review comments yet. Keep it up. You are very entertaining.

It's so cool I love how your voice is muffled when wearing the gas mask

Centaura is one of the best game that i ever played on roblox. It really depicts the war and the lore is amazing!

My biggest gripes with the game are how the Artillery can't be hidden from at all, THE CORNER PEAKING (being able to 3rd person), and the fact that Gridlock lasts for too long, and the other maps last for too little. Gridlock is my least favorite, since it's just too open and there's too much corner peaking potential from across the map. Otherwise my first experience was fun. Even "rp'd" a little with a few random soldiers, talking about how we wanted to go home. One of them died in front of me. Funny, and tragic.

didn’t expect skit to review this out of all games

great vid! I love how you not only explained the lore, but also explained the gameplay!!! I noticed a smaller copycat channel of yours but i have to say, I like your content a lot more!

Frontlines: Karelia made the killfeed better so you can see the teams now.

Great vid skit❤ You should definitely review Northwind next its getting a huge update on the 22nd of december and they will add a huge new map and a naval system

I've been a lurker here for a while now and I gotta say it's nice to see you almost hit 40k

The idea of a grim past is not one that has been unused. Centuara, however takes it to the extream. They decided to show a world as brutal, if not more, as the one we already experienced. However, it uses that to its advantage, and shows how truly horrific war truly is. When skit said that you play as "A nameless cog in the war machine" it shows how truly pointless everything was. When the end of the battle is over, and that black screen shows, you sit there, and cannot help but feel that everything you just did, win or loss, was pointless. It does not show a flashy victory screen, or ghost saying that you will do better the next time. You cannot help but feel empty. The only thing you will likely remember is the amount of dead. That is why I love this game. It does not tell you what you did was heroic. It only reminds you of the amount of people that died for a cause you simply know nothing about, and likely, neither did the young men who fought in the first world war. That is why it was such a good idea to set the game in an alternate universe. You do not know why you are there. It's only if you look deep through the lore that you will at least have some context, however you still will not understand the purpose of the sacrifices the people around you made. War is a hellish, tragic waste of human life. And it takes guts to portray it as it truly is, and that is why Centuara is one of the best games on roblox.

everyone's talking about the video but every time skit does a sponsorship i watch the whole ad it never dissappoints lmao

Why are your vids so well made? Also great sponsor video!

This game has LORE? Can't believe i almost missed this...

You can actually go deaf in the game, an artillery can land far enough that it wont hurt you, but close enough for audio to be replaced as endless ringing.

9:54 The whistle also makes nearby friendlies yell like a bayonet charge

9:50 the whistle if you use it with a big group of people makes them all run faster and start doing a Viking war cry

By far the most underated youtuber ive seen so far

I actually like that you can never see when, where, how, or really any info at all on who killed you. It's extremely realistic, on top of just outright preventing you from exposing the enemy's position to your friends after you're killed or just outright going back there yourself, and sets in the reality that in war, you're never gonna see it hit you. Like... ever. You're gonna go down, and boom, dead. And unless your friends have experience or general understanding of ballistics, you'll be sad to find that they likely won't either. But that's war... and war never changes.

0:26 imagine this is canon.

As a centaur a gamer, i can confirm that we are not mentally sane after a few hours playing capri valley

great video as usual

This was the best video on Roblox i watched in a while

War is hell. Literally.

I remember playing for the first time, & while on the Capri Valley map I was witness to a group of both enemies & allies getting set on fire. All of the men set ablaze screamed & shrieked like damned souls for about half a minute before artillery came again and left me deaf for the rest of the match :/

Man I love centaura

I remember when it rained shells 24/7, never stopped. probably a bug. It was really fun, couldn't go anywhere without being shelled.

Skit you should do a skit review on noobs in combat (you better I liked subed and turned on notifications)

11:21 “Ayo bro that’s a femboy” Average chat message right there

EPIC REVIEWS

I absolutely love the weaponry of this game. I like it a lot in comparison to other semi realistic historical shooters on roblox, such as airship assault. The weapons are good, the world is good, the gunplay is good. It just needs fleshed out a bit.

I swear I never seen a Gridlock match end, when Gridlock finally has a winner I'll probably have children and grandchildren aleardy

"Capri Valley is the most deadliest battle" Ascendēns Forest: You sure about that?

I can’t wait to see a review on King of Battle now that it’s been confirmed.

my friend introduced me to centaura yesterday. i play full volume blasting it into my ears for immersion

Thanks!

When the Southern Front update comes will you review that?

there is a HUGE update coming soon adding the souther border, YOU HAVE TO REVIEWE IT AGAIN LATER

Can’t wait

Gridlock is probably the only ww1 game out there that has actual trench warfare accurately represented.

I love how Centaura does it's hardest to show the brutality of war, even if it is a roblox game. It doesn't try to glorify war at all, which is why I love it.

I can tell that the devs watched this video, because nearly every flaw you talked about was addressed in the Southern Frontier update just a couple days ago. Lag spikes are gone, killfeed has teams (Idk about weapons though), artillery has been nerfed, and with the new maps, wirecutters actually have a purpose!!!

I really enjoyed this video I hope you review foxhole one day

currently, you can now play as Antares for 2 maps one one of which happens after Cetus' defeat, and the other i think its a battle that happens in a similar time to Capri valley the first battle is like a D-Day defense battle where Cetus must capture and hold points for a certain amount of time before heading onto the next area in needing of capture while antares must defend these points, as long as the points arent yellow in color that mean antares is winning. the next one is basically capri valley but replace C with a massive open field where there is barely any cover apart from the barn on one side and a big house on the other, also after a while i noticed during whats called "sudden death" when the game takes too long with no advances the game burns and breaks down the houses and barns lighting them on fire allowing nobody to enter it or they'll burn to death and at this point when one team finally captures a point even for 1 second its game and regarding the wire cutters i seen people using them especially in the new Antares vs Cetus field battle takes place i often see barbed wires cut by my own team mainly because ITS SO DAMN HARD TO RUN PAST THEM without getting caught, slown down, and killed in the process and running around them also often exposes you to enemy fire so cutting them is simply the best option

YESSSS I ASKED AND I RECIEVED W SKIT

The new update with the Antares front is very Cool with the 2 new maps . Btw one time during the capri valley map i played a game during 3h00 with 15000 deaths (at the end i was brainwashed)😥💀

Now that it’s been half a year, 6 new maps have been released! I would definitely do a part two as the game has changed so much, with so much more to come!

banger review

I know the creator of the game itself, and he is a nice guy. He's been doing great so far, and he'll do even better in the future. ClassicMasterNoob never dies!

From what I know, the best way to survive artillery on Gridlock is to retreat back to the trenches when you hear the voice line signifying it. You then stand on the opposite side of your trench, the one that waves away from the contested area, and wait for the barrage to be over.

this looks like fire

u know the game is good when a match last atleast an hour and deaths count reaches a number of 1k even in the shortest match.

Can you do coming back to entrenched review because they added 3 or 4 new factions tons of new maps and reworks to older ones reworks on capture zone and many more if your interested

Can you do a Empire Clash review?

Ay nice

They added a new map, a front between the Antares Empire and the Cetans. It has tanks and an extensive wave system...this map normally sees some of the longest battles nowadays. The longest I've been in went on for just over a hour.

Skit whenever next Hellmet playtest drops make a video on it please!

"I wish there was some way to hide from it, not even the trenches are safe" *That's the point sergeant*

I have to say this game made me appreciate on having tinnitus I never felt so much peace before

i love this game with all my heart, but dead ahead will always have a special place on my heart

I love flamers but only when I’m a mortar man because I can see the fire from a mile away lol the only problem is I have trouble telling if it’s friendly or hostile

Can you review shell shock next.

Hey Skit, do you think you could do a review of Cold War next?

I hope you have a good day @Skit Gaming Thank you for your Useful information

You should do a review on northwind😊

Do a review on Marque of war Naval, the game is coming up slowly on its development

Fun fact: the armored car can be killed with flametrhowers, making the most despair filled screams

I like women

Black hawk down opening quote popping off

served in the antares navy against the orions. Ive been on capital ships and flewn their torpedo bombers. I landed on those islands, atoll. ive seen things you people can never imagine. now i am sent to the fields of cetus. and all those moments will be lost in time. like, tears in rain.

Now that Centaura 2.0 and 3.0 is released, you should review it again. Other than the first three maps, its like an entirely new game in the 4 new maps.

The lore and even globe map remind me of airship assault, but with like astrology instead of colours

You should do a review on Michael’s Zombies

Bro needs to make a second review on the new updates

here before it blows up

I recommend you try the physically and mentally challenging game known as Decaying Winter. I dont want to spoil the fun so you will have see and play it for yourself!

Do a skit review on “Cold War” pls 🙏

Heres the thing. The players always obey the whistle. They cant resist.
