You,two remind me of my husband and I, I am the survival horror player and he was the rpg- Parasite Eve is my favorite game and Koudelka was his. Now that he has passed away, all I play is RPGs.Keep playing your games as a couple, I TRULY MISSED THAT. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL.

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

This is exactly why we have this channel! We never really chase views or subscribers but want to reach the people that really want to see what we're doing and enjoy it. So sorry to hear about your husband. I think about all the games we won't get around to either and I feel like I would do the exact same thing you are. Thanks so much for all the love. I hope you're having a wonderful week.

Love this being a 2 separate reviews from different angles in one video

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

Thanks so much!! We thought it would be interesting as well. I was concerned Scott wasn't going to love it as much as I did, but I was so pleasantly surprised.

@galactoidgaming 2 месяца назад

This is such a great review! I love that you're both stepping outside of your normal genres to try new games. Koudelka seems like a really interesting game that I've never even heard of. Gonna watch this again later!

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

I knew we'd eventually both get around to a tactics game. When I started this one I thought it was a turn-based survival horror RPG. I think that's why I struggled a bit at first.... Well scratch that I struggled the entire way through 🤣🤣🤣 Knowing where to put my points would have made a huge difference.

@SleeplessSheep 2 месяца назад

Really fantastic and thoughtful review, guys. I think this game deserve so much more appreciation, even for its faults. It really is like an art piece--just with the acting alone, it's like a stage play.

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

You're absolutely right!! Not enough, people talk about it and it's a damn shame that it never got a steam release because I think it could have gotten a few more eyes on the game for sure. It is absolutely like a stage play.

I haven't played this since its release, I'm so tempted to put this on my 2024 list 🤔 I really enjoyed Scott's uncensored commentary coming through with the CRT footage, although I thought there was someone hiding behind me when it first kicked in 😂 Great review 😎👍

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

Do it!!!! You should totally play it again. I'm so happy Scott recorded himself beating the gargoyle. It was really fun for me to watch too. Sorry not sorry we freaked you out 🤣

Great video Scott & Jen, this looks to be a fun game, awesome shirt Scott and Jen, just wish I could have seen the full art of yours Jen, but your hair was covering a part of your shirt, I love Supernatural, awesome show

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

Aw thanks so much!! Damn, I should have showed the whole shirt. The art on it is really cool. I will have to take a picture and share it on Twitter or Instagram. I picked it up at our local pawn shop. They got a huge lot of new shirts in. We love supernatural as well. Watched it all the way through. Pudding!

Highly recommend checking out the 1st Shadow Hearts game on PS2 it is very good! Also the 2nd game Covenant is also a fun RPG too.

We actually have all the shadow hearts games. We picked up two of them at SEGE last year, and Scott got me the one I was missing for Christmas 😊

Great review guys! For some reason i always thought Koudelka was just some puzzle game and nothing more. Don't know where i got that image but that's the reason i've never been interested in it.😄 Also i would put all my stats in PIE! I love pecan pies especially!

@RetroRivals Месяц назад

Lol well for the longest time I just thought the uncharted games were bro shooters 😂😂😂 so you're not alone in having wacky theories about games. Pecan pie is delicious but I think my favorite is coconut cream. And no that's not a what she said joke but it could be 😂😂😂

Hello Retro Rivals! Just finished the review of this game. I never heard of this game. Good review! You covered every important detail.😇👍 This game is certainly not for me because it needs a lot of patience. Not saying that I am impatient, but there are some games that are not my cup of tea. I am sorry. Just telling you guys the truth.😇 How about a video on "The Last of Us II (Remastered Version/PS5 Upgrade)"? With your expectations from "The Last of Us III". Just a suggestion.😇 Happy Gaming!🎮 Happy Weekend!🎶🎵

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

Always appreciate an honest opinion and no worries at all. It's not a game for everyone for sure, but playing it the way Scott did and equipping your points properly makes a hell of a difference. I love the idea of doing a Last of Us II deep dive and I have so many thoughts on where they could go with the third game or even a prequel.

Thank you!😇🤝 "I love the idea of doing a Last of Us II deep dive and I have so many thoughts on where they could go with the third game or even a prequel." I am glad that you like this idea too. I am sure, most of us would like to hear your thoughts about the third installment. We'll wait for it. Thank you!😇

@coopleofnerds 2 месяца назад

Fantastic review! I love the 2 different perspectives. Maybe that was the destiny behind the name all along. Now in this particular case you two agreed on your review. Maybe the next review you will not agree and you 2 can become the rivals. Hahaha. I just ordered a copy on Ebay and it should be here on the 9th. I will definitely blame you when Mary sees the bill.

@RetroRivals Месяц назад

Well, the next review will be Skies of Arcadia and sadly there will be no rivalry in that one because oh my God it's amazing! We don't mind taking the blame for koudelka. If she complains about the bill just offer to get up early with the kids and make her breakfast in bed.

@samanthaazira 2 месяца назад

Not my cup of tea with this game but I was glad to watch the video so I could hear about your experiences with the game ❤❤

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

I figured it probably wouldn't be a game you would enjoy, but I'm betting you'll like the next one :)

@RNGGamerYT 2 месяца назад

Sadly... I'm going to have to watch this one in the background with the sound off... because this game is in my backlog... and I can't have it spoiled!!!!!!!!!!

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

I have to do the same thing all the time 😂😂 It's a fun one. When you do get around to playing it I suggestion looking up what you might need to know before playing. There's some secret stuff that you might want to go after.

@DanofWar101 2 месяца назад

What a fantastic review on a game that is not mentioned often! Watching this makes me want to go play it now! Maybe after I've completed Fallout 4 that I've started 3 days ago. Now that I've watched your review, I'm trying to think about other games that have similar settings (jrpg with horror) and besides Parasite Eve, I can't see any (besides the Shadow Hearts series). Will you be playing Shadow Hearts eventually now that you've played the prequel? Because that's another pricey one to get (which is still on my wishlist, lol)! But like you said, there's still emulation, so I'm in no hurry to get a physical version. I can't wait for your Skies of Arcadia review because that one I've completed, and I can't wait to see how your experience went! Great video and keep up the good work!

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

We actually picked up two of The shadow heart games at SEGE last year and Scott got me the last one I was missing for Christmas. I definitely want to get around to playing the first one before the end of the year and hopefully Scott will as well. Skies of Arcadia should be out within the next few weeks. We had it completely filmed but Scott ended up having to wear glasses in the video because of his concussion and the lights were making him really nauseous. When I queued the video up on premiere pro to start editing it, we noticed that the microphone died about halfway through. So now we have to refilm it. It's probably for the best because scott will definitely have more fun with it this time around now that he's feeling better.

@DanofWar101 2 месяца назад

@RetroRivals Oh no a concussion? That's no joke! Hope he's feeling better now!

@RetroRivals 2 месяца назад

@@DanofWar101 It took a good 3 weeks for him really to feel back to normal. His neck still hurts from time to time but I think he gave himself whiplash. He got really sick and I think his blood pressure dropped and he dropped. Hit his head in three different spots. Was out for about 8 minutes

@DanofWar101 2 месяца назад

Scott beat the damn gargoyle so easily. It was disgusting. I have half of mine to go back and play the game eventually and put my points in the proper places.
