Ecco the Dolphin is Terrifying 

Good call, because the field is saturated and there’s almost no jobs.

@@Mia-dt3gl "Marine biology is a highly competitive field in which the supply of marine scientists far exceeds the demand" damn that's honestly sad. I've taken an animal behavior course and heard some horror stories about how slim it is for zookeepers as well

Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

If you thought she was scary, you should try the silent hill series 1-3. If you haven't already. 😅

@@kawaiipop07 i think the vortex queen is more heart attack levels than any boss of the first 3 sh games.

I guess you gotta float in an isolation tank while on ketamine to deal with that

Agreed. With Dreamcast almost the entire first and second party game library was a unique experiment.

I feel bad for them only having, like, two games, back then. So they had no choice but to hunker down and throw themselves at whatever games they had, regardless of how difficult or BS they were.

We had passwords back then

It took a very, Verrrrrry Looong time but it became fun.

Exactly. I had dozens of games throughout the 90s. I can count on one or two hands the amount of games I actually beat. I've beat more games this year alone than I managed to beat in that whole decade. From this aspect, the 90s is better experienced in 2021.

Game Genie

If it HAD been released on the Saturn, a dozen people would have bought it. And the few hundred fans of the Genesis games would have missed out anyway. LOL

@@orinanime You are underestimating the average sales numbers of video games.

@@Nathan-rb3qp No. I was being hyperbolic and sarcastic about the lack of fans for Ecco and lackluster profits for Saturn.

@@orinanime Oh. Sorry.

@@orinanime I mean, could still play it later through re-release or an emulator so either way we got gypped out of a third one with fancy graphics

It was kind of dark though. Ecco losing his mind from being spinning in a vortex for trillions of years? That’s so messed up and unnecessary. Just have him traveling to different time periods at will and having adventures. Keep his life span to normal dolphin years. No need to torture Ecco to insanity as his reward for success.

It was long, drawn out, repeating the same existential dribble.

@@iwanttocomplain Yeah, I was expecting something similar to Ben 10's Professor Paradox, based on how it was initially going, but nah. Just went on and on about how mentally devastating being shattered across time was. Seemed he just cynically wanted a hellish end to our beloved hero, possibly to reflect the experiences he had while playing the game.

As An Masochist i still find this game obnoxious

I’ve come to realize that all my favorite childhood games were on the difficult side. It explains a lot.

That and the original Super Mario Bros. 2(aka Lost Levels).

You actually had to be somewhat skilled with games back then

So what’s a good game for narcissists

The Wikipedia article states that she's the evolutionary start point of Arthropods. So that could be something

I think she represents aliens

Same

Dark Shoals

Dark Souls is a mere pale imitation of Ecco the Dolphin!

@@chakuseki nice

I can definitely see the reason why

Time travel and aliens are automatically pretty rad

Because it's Ecco.

It’s a fantastic game! Have you played the Sega CD port? It has a much higher quality soundtrack with different songs, really really good play the game runs smoother. Once you unlock the damaging sonar upgrade the game gets a bit easier, but I love Ecco I hope he gets a comeback

I never played the Sega CD port but the music alone would make it worthwhile.@@pQuiPq

You can usually see attacks coming at you in Souls games

@@RavenGamingOverLord Indeed. They did make things significantly easier compared to the Ecco games.

The new drawn to life game sucks

Ha I started watching him from the anime about the creepy boys and rating them

The creepy parts are the parts that made me fall in love with the game as a kid

Glad I could bring back those accursed memories for you! c;

We also had the controller with slow motion... I wonder if that's why we bought it lol

It's possible without cheats but not without emulator saving lol

I am okay with the fate of being a “jabroni.” Though I do wonder where they picked up that term, at such a young age LOL

@@DoujinShinji He definitely learned that from me, and by the way, this video is awesome, and it was my six year old who showed it to me.

@@DoujinShinji what in the hell is a jabroni?

I’m glad you enjoyed it!! c:

Doesn’t count

valid

It is, indeed, a true miracle!

i knew it sounded so familiar

Thank you for coming to my ‘spiritual view versus western view’ talk. Hope you maybe got something out of the analysis, too LOL

That’s very kind of you to say, thank you!

I can promise you I wouldn’t have beaten both of these games if it wasn’t for the purpose of making this video LOL

@@DoujinShinji I will forever be grateful for your selfless sacrifice, really enjoyed the video :)

Sadly it’s a full reboot, there was a canceled sequel to it though! Recently a ton of levels and design concepts for it have leaked, I think it was called Sentinels of the Universe

They’re pretty cool to look back on! The compression on them also helps with ~the aesthetic~

Ayyyy, cool that I was able to hook you!! Maybe go get some sleep now, tho c;

I appreciate the support! Hopefully I’ll be uploading more than twice in this new year.

17:14 "You have to satisfy these crystals' needs" I think you… nailed it.

I’m glad you liked the video and that I could take you on a journey through the games, even without you playing them!

Happy new year!

I never considered that aspect of the lore, so you can see that as a ‘plot hole’ in my Fanfiction. But that’s okay, the fanfic was just for funsies anyways, haha. Thanks for the questions, tho c:

It would’ve. That’s one of my issues with Sonic, too.

Bobbit worms are nearly as terrifying as the story behind their name. I say that, until I now have learned bobbit worms can be up to ten feet long. Christ.

@@DoujinShinji Sometimes curiosity is a strange thing. Leading to interest and unnerving information.

Yeah, I remember the stomach level from the second Ecco game, where you get transformed into an alien. Got really annoying, until I looked up a cheesy way to beat the Vortex queen online LOL

Glad you’re still enjoyin’ my stuffs, thanks for watchin’!

More than I expected, honestly

I’ve seen bits and parts of the game. I didn’t want to focus on it in this video because that game is part of a different timeline, but I also don’t have any experience with it either, atm. I know there’s blood tho, and that’s crazy LOL And I think, like, there’s different factions of sharks, or something, and they wear different armors? Something out-there and hilarious like that.

@@DoujinShinji The game is really great! The most difficult one in my opinion. You can look up those videos on my RU-vid Channel if you want

50:22 wow Cassandra really fucking hated this dolphin for some reason

ok I'm sorry actually what are the names of EVERY song

I think its “midnight rondevouz” by casiopea.

If I remember correctly, it was a Latin phrase that translates to “they fear what they don’t understand”

I’ve played through Ecco Jr. a few times. Pretty chill and laid back 25 minutes of a game. Complete opposite of the other games, haha.

Welcome aboard! c:
