Not bad. It's in key. Mostly in time. Totally recognizable. Shout-out to the girls on sax and tambourine.

So the bottom line is that it's a true Stalker successor

Ah, Mark Kern. How's that game coming along, eh?

For clairity's sake, I know the video is neither by him nor specifically about him.

Who? Seriously, I know nothing about what sounds like an egotistical asshole given your tone.

TLDR: aka Grummz. A former Blizzard something or another but now has-been. Currently culture war grifting on twitter and heading a crowdfunded game called Em-8er, which over a span of 8 years has not gotten further than a pre-alpha vertical slice demo.

That's really odd for her. Considering how she was ripping on the remake's story and how much Square fucked it up in the first game. Gameplay was not her problem, though with either game. I wonder what made Sterling change her tune.

I realize I'm a month late to respond to this but: no they didn't. Across the review they were positive. The contentious parts of the change of the story was acknowledged as contentious, but they thought it was genius.

With how often she complained after the fact, could've fooled me. I still say she's not the biggest fan, and people can change their mind. Her choice either way.

On the subject on a lot of AAA games on the 7th generation, I am glad BB and his buddy point out that the generation had its own problems with the gritty shooters, but a majority of those have even less replay value than Norse GoW or Horizon. I don't like most open world games and only play them the one time or two at most. Shadow of the Damned's original release you can only really play twice, because there is no NG+. It wasn't until the recent Remaster that NG+ became viable. The sandbox games have even less replay value, because I don't want to go through all of that shit again.

Greek GoW I never bother replaying much, because they have pacing issues in the middle late half of their games. Especially in GoW III. The only reason so many, but not all, AAA games have bad replay value is because there is either much gameplay, or too many cinematic. At least you can skip most of the walking sections and cut-scenes in both Norse GoW games, even that one section with Angrabroda needed to be axed, but didn't. I'll finish up the video later, but I thought would put in my input for that section.

Also, the 7th generation has plenty unskippable forced walking segments that got more annoying as time went on, and those have aged worse or just as much as the modern games that do them. Uncharted 3 was the worse with this before 4.
