Grapple Hooks 

Thanks! Yeah with these diet soda videos I like to just rattle off a bunch of games back to back and have less of an exact structure. Hopefully you find stuff you want to try out in the process

Thank you, that's very nice of you to say. I'm glad you enjoy the content so much! Bummer that I've had to slow down my release schedule so much nowadays but hopefully I don't keep you waiting too long haha. I did think of starting a patreon at one point, but it takes a lot of extra effort cause I'd need to make a lot of content if I wanted to make it good, which isn't viable considering how much busier I'm getting with non-YT stuff and how small the patreon would be at first. Maybe some day (I have ideas for videos that would be great for a small, already dedicated audience instead of having to try to play YTs algorithm) but for now I'm just gonna try to keep a consistent schedule with the normal videos

@@AsadAnjum Well even if there wasn't extra content I'm sure that there would still be people like me who would love to show their support. Maybe a youtube channel membership or something like that

Looking at them back to back when editing...man it's such a huge step backwards haha

@@AsadAnjum I sort of get the impression they had to limit how fast players could move around the environment, maybe for data streaming reasons. It seemed like the vehicles weren't all that fast either. Possibly for the same reason... ...that, or maybe they were just incompetent. 🤔

@@GreyMatterShades yeah, that's the impression I got too. I think it came from trying to make it an untethered coop open world, which meant they potentially had to render 2 huge sections of the map at once. But they hardly even managed to pull that off at better than 15 fps even with the bottlenecks on movement speed so idk it just seems like they were way in over their heads 😅

@@AsadAnjum Yeah untethered coop would have contributed to that as well. Seems like they tried to compensate by curtailing mobility (and probably downgrading a bunch of other stuff) but it still wasn't enough to get solid performance. I'm still curious to know wtf happened during that game's development that yielded such a train wreck.

HAAK looks awesome, it's been on my wishlist for a while. Wish we saw some info on pepper grinder at sgf

Wait am I stupid, how do I not remember infamous 2 having a grapple hook?

Yeah that js a bummer. It's campaign is still great tho, tbf they'd have to change their levels around quite a bit if they gave you a Grapple in single player

Oh interesting. Yeah it's cool that it can be exploited like that and there's a lot of benefits to it being such a free grapple system, but I feel like the devs didn't give it enough supporting features to really let it shine

@@AsadAnjum yeah in campaign definitely not. combining the slide with smooth inclines also helps with the momentum of it, which I use to ping about the maps in MP and it's great fun, but not as fun to do in campaign because of the lack of stuff to grapple off of
