We finally encounter Hagrid in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone on PS1! Draco also throws explosives at us, bit rude. Follow mt Twitter! - / demickyd #harrypotter #harrypotterps1 #philosophersstone
@@dio_lima These are both super old comments but if they're a serious biology teacher they'd teach you about backburning and it's positive effect on Forest fire prevention and ecosystem revitalisation. Also, OG commentator have you seen the shit you have to deal with plant-wise in the HP world? Venomous Tentacula, Devil's Snare, Mimbulus Mimbletonia. I'd do the same as Sprout and be like "Magical Plants are Assholes and you ALL need to learn these basic Fire Spells "
Just thinkin' about how different the entire series would be if after his first year Harry was just a *fourth degree burn victim* after having fallen into the Hogwarts Lava Flows.
game dev: "So how about, instead of static facemaps that change subtly to show expressions, everyone's face bubbles like they're been injected with polly juice crack and the environment wobbles like I've overdosed on butterbeer." Thematic, I love it!
Been getting Morrowind-themed community posts from you for weeks and now that I see you play one of my fav childhood games, I just had to check it out. I still have flashbacks to "perfect scoring" those minecart-sections at Gringott's. This game has a few areas that become inaccessible later on. You can do the flying lessons a few times. The last one is a task you do for Hagrid I think. Have fun. And without spoiling anything, use the interact button on stuff to find secrets.
Man, I don't even remember how I found this channel but I am so glad I did. There's so many videos for me to catch up on. Hilarious stuff, making me feel all kinds of nostalgic.
After the initial excitement of going to a magic school wore off there had to have been times when Harry thought to himself "This place is an utter hellhole. As bad as the Dursleys treated me their house is safe compared to Hogwarts."
From my pure gamer layman perspective it looks like the polygons vertices have to snap to fairly rigid sets of xyz co-ordinates when they move. Games on Quake 1 and 2 engines had this limitation back in 1996 - 1997, not having support for skeletal animation. But I have no idea why the level geometry is also wobbly. Google tells me texture warping is due to perspective incorrect textures that PS1 was limited to. Weird time in graphics
Yeah it was one of the limitations of the hardware. In order to have higher definition textures and a larger texture cache, the PS1 sacrificed floating point calculations for the 3D rendering, so everything is rounded to the nearest integer value, meaning things snap rather than moving smoothly. The texture warping was both an extension of this effect, as well as a lack of anisotropic filtering. Nintendo made the opposite decision on the N64, which is why N64 games don't have the wobble, but as the trade off, they have very low res and repetitive textures. The thing is that both consoles' issues were far less noticeable on a 20"-30" standard definition CRT monitor, because the fuzzy nature of the "pixels" on those monitors, along with the interlacing and fade between frames, created a built in anti-aliasing and motion blur effect, meaning that jagged edges and texture warping were largely hidden, and the constant snapping between integer coordinates was much smoother.
Lol, the knights flip there axes around before they strike you. Games trying real hard to be pg. Thanks for the upload. I'd love to see more harry potter games. Specially the old gameboy advance ones. They're all weird yet fun with some cool tunes (some horrible lol).
Your commentary on these games is so smart and funny, I hope you get blessed by the yt algorithm because you deserve waaaay more subscribers. Waiting for the next part :)
I'm playing through this game right now but I'm playing it on a PS2 (PS1 backwards compatible) on an old CRT TV. You'd be surprised how much better the game looks emulated. It's so smooth watching you play it
Just wanted to say I've been binging through your videos lately and even I know Morrowind inside out they still entertain me a lot. Also I love these early HP games so yeaaaa keep it up lad.
Of Harry potter games I only had the gameboy color one. The charms game was so hard you had to remember 8 directions of wand movement only seeing it once. Coudnt even keep up with pen and paper
