To answer probably your first question, the stupid games are Splitgate 2 and Emio - The Smiling Man. Subtitles by Screaming Argonaut Delayed Input Patreon: / delayedinput Twitch Channel: / kylebosman Discord Server: / discord
@3:30 I don't fault Kyle because he doesn't play visual novels. But Famicom Detective Club's animation is actually an impressive cut above the rest in regards to 2D mesh style animations! My wife and I were impressed with the character rigs having a lot of articulation and even redrawn body assets. I'm actually excited to see them not be as economized as most 2D visual novels.
That Splitgate app is so unbelievably hilarious and dorky but they're so adorably earnest about wanting to build something I honestly have to respect their Icarus-level ambition.
Man, no, I certainly dont. Like, 'dorky' isn't the right word, it's just painfully bad. It's 'Hello fellow kids' level of out of touch nonsense. 'Earnest' is also not the right word. It's quite the opposite of earnest, it's slimy and pathetic. Like watching your 45 year old uncle hit on the 18 year old waitress at a restaurant. Like, just stop it. It's embarrassing to witness and it's never going to actually work.
Splitgate 2 seems like such an obvious example of over ambition and early success going to someone’s head. I give it a few months before it shuts down.
Yep. The original succeeded by NOT being a hero shooter but harkening back to the days of arena shooters and so they picked up an audience starved for that action that is absent in today's games. Now, they're just a clone of everything else that's popular while managing to alienate players like me still looking for an arena shooter outlet. I predict less than a year before shutdown.
The new Famicom detective club games are legit sick. They are very unique compared to other adventure games the art is stunning the animations are good too im so excited!!!
I'm planning on getting the first next month, but I am curious: Is it kind of point and click adventure styled akin to Ace Attorney, or more like a standard visual novel?
@@TheMarioman121 I’d say it feels more involved over a VN closer to ace attorney but it still feels different from that though it’s a mix of investigations and using your clues to talk to people and get more info from the situation. So it’s a unique blend of both
Kyle is definitely gonna get really into Splitgate 2 and then make a big deal about uninstalling it and then reinstall it and play it secretly except that he will still tell everyone he is secretly playing it, and I look forward to that
I can't wait to see what next season's shirts are gonna be. Baby Yoda polos? Grandma sweaters? Vintage 90s NASCAR t-shirts? The anticipation is killing me!
I thought Splitgate got popular in the first place for being a simple shooter that hearkens back to the early 2000s with a twist (portals). Have no idea what the thought process was behind making it look like every class based generic shooter ever.
Because decisions like these come from out-of-touch and clueless execs at the top. If you're extra unlucky that's the studio owner/director. Let me tell you from experience, that's not a fun ride to be on as a dev.
Yeah I’m so sad about that… splitgate is probably my favorite multiplayer game to come out in the last few years, and all the changes seem like they’re sapping what made it fun. Hopefully Splitgate 1 stays live so I can keep playing that
When Kyle switches seasons, what happens to his shirts? Is his closet just bursting to capacity? Does he donate the excess shirts to charity? Does... Does he eat the shirts? ... and if he does, does he use ketchup? So many questions
Concord just happened and is currently still attempting to happen, and now we have Splitgate 2 as yet another live-service shooter with no sauce. That entire app was a charisma vacuum, and even so you could see it coming from the CG trailer and interview, it's rare that most of us actually take the full brunt of one of these games' cringe. I feel so bad for all of the Splitgate fans.
Worst part about Concord is that the game is really good, really pretty and really fun. If only they had advertised the game itself and not some CG Marvel comedy nobody cares about.
Splitgate 2's logo is exactly what you'd expect a game logo from a studio bought by a crypto/NFT company to look like. EDIT: They were not bought, sorry, they worked with the crypto company to integrate bitcoin directly into the game. Same point though.
That was a few years ago, and definitely wasn’t in your face or anything. Splitgate was fun, the most “halo 3” feeling game that wasn’t halo I’ve ever played, and the portal system was a pretty rad concept. I’d wait and see how SG2 is received before deciding that you just won’t play it, at least if you were into halo at all back in the day :)
The teaser for Emio got a lot of people talking about a game that they otherwise would have just ignored. Hard to imagine that Nintendo is disappointed by how this has gone.
I think honestly it was a successful move cause it was the best possible way to generate interest around this release, during the Direct it would have been for sure overshadowed by Zelda, Metroid and other big announcements.
So interesting to see Sakamoto try something different than Metroid after so many years, he really seemed to want to hear what people though of his story. Also Splitgate 2 sounds cool, never heard of it before this vid but kidna wanna check it out. Halo with portals in Unreal 5? Dope.
I found this channel through the "trying not to regret buying a psvr2" suggestion, been binging every delayed input (saving the FFVII-rebirth video until I beat it, really taking my time with it lol) and just wanna say, Thanks for the awesome videos. Looking forward to all the new uploads coming up :)
New games new games new games. Have we played all the good old ones already? Have _You_ played Beglitched, Kyle? It's pretty good. It's pretty good, Kyle.
The famicom detective club remakes from 2 years already had higher production value than the vast majority of Visual Novels with 2D arts. Considering Emio is bigger in file size than both remakes combined, it's safe to say it got a bigger budget and will therefore end up with an even higher production value. For that reason alone, it would absolutely stand out among the rest. I also disagree on Sakamoto's writing skills. The only bad story he made was Other M.
@@krontaar ah ok...well, he isn't the type of guy to put a game down. A game company, sure but not something a group of people did their best on with what they had.
You should take a look at the Famicom detective club remakes already out, they're probably some of the prettiest visual novels out there. The producer also worked on and helped write the original two which, well they've got a phenomenal story.
Famicom Detective Club is a pretty classic series, so its definitely interesting to see them making a new one after all this time...but I haven't played the other 2 because I was jealous that Japan got a sick looking physical release and we got dicked over with digital only.
I totally get it but tbh as far as anime-looking-visual-novels go the recent remakes of Famicom Detective Club 1 & 2 (at least in the trailer) had a lot of animation going on that added a lot of life to otherwise typical still scenes. Also why both these dog day games purple??
Kyle you need to stand down. Famicom Detective Club is amazing. The visuals and animations are next level for the genre. Check out video of the remakes they released in 2021. Also, Sakimoto was part of the original development team 30 years ago. They are very well written and put together stories, in fact. Stand down!
I don't get the hate for Metroid Dread's writing. Because you predicted a twist it's supposed to be bad? It's cohesive and fits well into the established series.
I don't know how I should feel about the comic. Kyle's voices should be for the interactive version. Other than that, I have no clue and I'm sure the team doesn't either
The reason EGOTS is so stupid is that it positions the thing we've never heard of before against the things we have, and relies on those things to give it value. It shows a lack of confidence in the value of it's own thing.
