@@sailoritaly Seems to be back up now, but we are experiencing some issues. Give it a bit and check back if you're still having issues, it'll be resolved soon.
'I mean, for one thing, you need to understand that it's possible to be both a nutter AND a fascist.' Or, as the SpunkGargleWeeWee crowd calls them... player characters.
which in reality our mindset is "holy shit this things superior to what im using now i better put this in my backpack with the rest of my superior shit for later when i actually need it" only to never actually use it even in the tightest of corners
@Lt Fuckwit funny that you say that, becuase im on day 24 and ive used a pistol mabye once (becuase compared to boneworks or almost any other vr game the guns in the walking dead are among the worst ever made). ive stuck to melee weapons exclusively and its been pretty damn fun. i just assumed the guns would attract the attention of zombies but i guess that isnt the case lol
Derek Furst, I wouldn’t be so sure. It’s Valve’s first attempt at making an actual new video game in quite a while, and they may have gotten a tad rusty at it. Besides, being so sure it’s going to be great is tantamount to preordering, and you know what the deal is with preordering.
Why don't they use the schedule feature and upload it in advance? Or if they do, they clearly don't change the title before it's published, which is weird.
Correction: they said they did, but RU-vid reverted their title. This isn't something that happens to other RU-vidrs, so this seems to be more of a fault on their end than on RU-vid.
@@Liggliluff That definitely happens to other youtubers. I know of a couple of channels where the notification squad regularly comment on the titles being formatted like file names.
"Guntor" bit made me laugh. Ty bro, you are my a solid anchor that helps with mdd mh issues. Been watching your art since you started out, just these last couple years has it really been for therapy. Again, ty for the laugh today. And for your efforts. Also, the thought of you being a parent now days makes me laugh too heh (40+ yr old father of 3 from Canada, happy for ya, mine keep me tethered to this life)
@@novadselir1068 that's the one. To any reading this. The gunpowder spawning character isnt the main character but is the love interest of the main character. Its pretty good and gets into a very fun locked room mystery laster into the season.
I suddenly want a game where the main character is actually a sentient gun and you're just kinda lugging them around from place to place. What you feed it changes its characteristics like jalapeños give you incindiary rounds, gravel makes it more like a shotgun spread, or enough tennis balls make bullets ricochet off walls. It seems tailor made for people to discuss ridiculous diets on forums and show off how broken it is to use a sniper rifle exclusively fed lawn darts. Wait, no. You don't get one of these hungry sentient guns. You get a "party" of them that you have to manage.
The way I saw it, there was no right answer, just various wrong ones. Mr. House would make it prosperous at the expense of the little man, NCR would bleed New Vegas dry, Ceasers Legion would make everything simpler (and in some cases, safer) at the expense of destroying any progress already made and eventually have the whole thing implode in on itself, and going independent would just result in anarchy because your PC has no real interest in running New Vegas other than the power.
@@patchmoulton5438 I don't know that I could comfortably call potentially being crucified & disembowled for looking at the wrong guy funny "simpler" or "safer" Like, they kill raiders so caravans can get through safer but they also kill just about every person who isn't willing to be dressed in a slave collar and/or hockey pads, so yeah.
@@Eon2641 I ment safer for the caravans that fly Ceasers flag. No raider is willing to mess with them. However, its a very temporary safety as when the Legion reaches the Pacific Ocean, the only place they have left to go is back in on themselves. Once Ceaser dies, the whole thing will come crumbling down and the survivors would actually be worse off than if they were
I always find a sort of strange catharsis from these zombie games with a loot/upgrade focus filling my bum bag with ammo and meds and tinned beans and dumping it all into my stockpile. I love opening up my locker in state of decay 2 and seeing my piles of resources ive spent hours gathering. Idk its like being a strange post apacolyptic dragon hoarder
I've used Yathzee's "prepping rocket launchers for giant boss fight that you manage without them" thing for so many things in life. Glad to see it's still there.
Seriously though, how do you become a famous scavenger. If anyone’s played the game, please tell me if they give a reason behind your characters fame and/ or nickname.
I haven't played the game myself, but the nickname tourist would seem to imply that the main character travels. A lot. Probably alone too. Not settling down with any of the established colonies and managing to survive on your own while constantly traveling in the zombie apocalypse would be worthy of fame I'd think.
@@screamingcactus1753 Well, with noone by your side, no possibility of really spreading the tales of your legendary travels since you're always on the move all by yourself and probably no real way for others to confirm that you are actually this famous "tourist" guy we might as well assume that the main protagonist is just a clever con artist. Seriously, just introducing yourself as "the legendary hero who should be worshipped and respected" sounds like a great strategy during a zombie apocalypse. As long as you piss off before anyone asks you to prove your skills, that is.
Isn't Last of Us have the protagonists being called the 'tourist' which in the beginning known as the people coming to the city and then the label change its meaning because most of the people they sent to kill the protagonists never returned. That's actually a legit reason why one became famous. I don't think a weird loner going 'round the place can be called 'legendary' unless they do something noteworthy.
here's a simple but effective idea for a plot that makes a point for all the weapons. a massive hoard of 10,000 zombies are on their way and the game is you prepping for it with an actual live timer like in dead rising...or the consuming shadow "wink" "wink"
@@MedievalGenie I gave Dead Zone a couple hundred hours for sure. Going back it's pretty repetitive, but i still thought it was good, i don't know, guess i never get sick of zombie games. Never paid a cent in fuel, but it was still greedy. Bastard locked a difficulty setting behind a $100 dollar purchase.
For once I completely agree with this entire video. And thanks for explaining what happens after the bell rings, honestly I min max scavenge too well so I didn't want to find out, possibly get eaten by zombies, and have to re-scavenge everything.
That corona centre they built in Milton Keynes.. is in a place called Kent’s hill.. this is literally a 5 minute walk up the road from me, saw it on the news and recognised the street signs in the background 😩 and now even you remind me about it 😂
I’ve never understood the mechanic where at a certain time the zombies get crazier. If it was linked to say sunset okay but it’s often a set time. Do they check their zombie wrist watches? How do the zombies without arms know it’s time to go bananas? No. No. This doesn’t work at all.
The very first video RU-vid recommends to me after I'm done watching the Game Theory detailing part of the complex story of Boneworks is this. Where Yathzee says: "An area in which it exceeds Boneworks is story, because it actually fucking has one." Yeah, that story is really well hidden.
I didn't realize it until Yahtz pointed it out, but there is something kinda silly about someone being a "famous scavenger." Like yeah, a scavenger is what you are in most post-apocalypse games, but it's not exactly a noble profession that warrants fame.
one day I'll stop laughing long enough while watching one of these to figure out whether or not he likes the game and recommends it or not... one day...
Now that I think about it, a hand gun, wether its a revolver or standard magazine pistol, is a bit op in the walking dead saints and sinners, with the main drawback is that the pistol isn't exactly the best for areas or situations you need to stealth into. (As well as reloading the gun, but that kinda drawback is well known for every gun in the game and others).
Goddammit Yahtzee, now I want a magical gun that talks and eats bullets before making vulgar proclamations about the people/things/monsters it's going to spit those bullets at 🤣
1:58 who are the "nutters" in New Vegas? I'm fairly certain the Legions fascist and the NCR could be on its way to fascism, but House is an autocratic dictator. Does he mean the Independence route?
The Legion is both nutters AND fascist. Copying a system and mistakes of a system of government that broke down millenia ago is the definition of insanity.
Hopefully theres some update or mod that allows you to control the amount of zombies that spawn. I could see people making some really cool montages of them destroying hordes
I know it's unlikely Yahtzee will ever see this... but boneworks does have a story, but it's like half life... in that you have to piece together bits of dialogue and design choices to find the deeper story
Most accurate game review I ever watched in 0.75x speed. I used stabby weapons and the 9mm the entire game. After i beat the game I took 2 AR's from the reserve and went on a zombie killing spree where I then learned that the "best" gun in the game is absolute shit like the rest of the 2 handed weapons (save the shot gun you can build) and went back to stabby weapons, a katana and the 9mm for all the end game. Honestly I preferred boneworks' lack of story to this game having a more thought out story that just abruptly ends with the worst choices that dont actually matter.
*Hey Yahtzee,* so I've got a suggestion for ya~. A little title called, "Mogeko Castle." It's an anime-style, horror-esque RPG. Wait, please, don't go! I know I'm just another rando on the internet, but I want to really vouch for it. I had never played an anime RPG myself, until I saw Mogeko Castle. It had better character development and writing than I would have expected from an anime game. - Concern you may have: "Ok so I looked it up. Some kind of messed up thing happens right? Yeah yeah, someone's head explodes or something, nice shock value..." Some anime RPGs really do just throw gore at the wall and go, "Look! BLOOD! Isn't that deep?!" But, Mogeko Castle has method to its madness. I really don't want to spoil any more. But, if you got time for an indie double, *I recommend Mogeko Castle!* - Oh and, there is only ONE jump scare in the game. The rest is unnerving and tense atmosphere. If you want me to tell you when it happens, I can do so without spoiling it for you. I can give you a specific, non-story thing to look for, and that'll que you on when the scare happens.
I do recommend playing it, but I don't think it would be a good Zero Punctuation video. It's primarily story based with very minimal gameplay. Also it's a good game, and it's hard to make fun of a good game.
@@DoctorTheo I'm sure our boy Yahtzee could figure out a way to dunk on it though, hahah~. Or maybe he would in fact like it a lot. Maybe it could be part of an indie double video. One can hope~.
Are we _sure_ my _only_ alternative to slavery and torture chambers is a disjointed group of random shmucks who have no slaves, literal _or_ figurative, but also no strict rules for survival and even _fewer_ plans for ensuring that the _historic windfall_ I'm expected to bring them lasts _longer_ than three days?
The only reason new orleans isnt flooded right now is becouse people are maintaining its barriers and pumps. I assume that in case of zombies, such things might be forgotten about and as such, yes it would flood.
Watched one of the more recent Zero Punctuations, and Yahtzee said “will save the galaxy for food is on Audible” and some other shit, I turned to my girl and said “OH FUCK, I didn’t know it was an audio book or I would’ve already been on that shot. Fast forward a week to today when I start the audio book, “written and performed by Yahtzee Croshaw” *stops the audio book, smiles* “oh fuck yeah, here we go” * pulls out YT to make this post and immediately started listening again.*
I have this game and it’s a lot of fun but does anybody know if there’s a limit to the amount of zombies that show up if i wait around a couple of days collecting materials? Does the Area become so crowded with zombies it’s impossible to continue?
