Linea temporale

  • 00:00:00 - 00:05:00

    Die video bespreek 20 nuwe en komende Middeleeuse speletjies van 2024 in 'n breë sin van die term. Die verteller begin met die strategie-RPG, "Kin-strife," 'n speletjie met realistiese fisika-simulasies en nie-lineêre spel, gevestig in 13de-eeuse Duitsland. Vervolgens bespreek ons "Quinfall," 'n ambisieuse MMORPG met uitgebreide omgewings en verskeie karakters. Daar is egter debat oor die gebruik van Unreal Engine-bates. "Project Awakening" het reeks geword na die aanvanklike onthulling in 2018, en daar is hoop vir verdere inligting aangesien die speletjie steeds in ontwikkeling bevestig is.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    Ander speletjies bevat "Legendary Tales" wat nou in volle vrystelling in 2024 is, en beskryf word as soortgelyk aan elder scrolls in VR, en "The Awakener: Risen," wat gekritiseer word as 'n afskrif van "Dragon's Dogma." Vervolgens, "Enotria: The Last Song" beskryf as 'n "Souls" soort speletjie met 'n Italiaanse folklore spin. "Dragon Age: Dreadwolf" word ook bespreek, met verwagtinge vir 2024 na jarelange ontwikkeling. "Mirthwood" is 'n iso-ometriese avontuur met oorlewingskomponente, en "Avowed" deur Obsidian verwag ook in laat 2024. "Pax Dei" en "No Rest for the Wicked" word opgemerk vir hul unieke benaderings tot Middeleeuse temas.

  • 00:10:00 - 00:19:54

    "Kingmakers" neem 'n humoristiese benadering deur moderne elemente in Middeleeuse stryd te voeg, terwyl "Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC" groot verwagting vir sy uitbreiding in 2024 opwek. "Chrono Odyssey" mik om 'n MMORPG-ervaring met indrukwekkende grafika te bied, en "Gothic 1 Remake" streef daarna om nostalgiese waardes te vang. "Blight: Survival" kombineer Middeleeuse atmosfeer met co-op elemente, en "Senua's Saga: Hellblade II" word van 2024 verwag. Ten slotte, "Kingdom Come: Deliverance II" bly gefokus op realisme en naratief, terwyl "Manor Lords" stadbou en strategie kombineer vir 'n unieke ervaring.

  • 00:00:01
    - [Narrator] Knights, castles, swords, shields,
  • 00:00:04
    kings, queens, magic, mages, dragons,
  • 00:00:08
    that's the type of stuff we're talking about today
  • 00:00:09
    because we're talking
  • 00:00:10
    about 20 new and upcoming medieval games of 2024.
  • 00:00:14
    Medieval, of course, can be pretty broad.
  • 00:00:16
    That's how we're treating it.
  • 00:00:17
    It's not strictly a medieval time period,
  • 00:00:19
    it's just games that have some of those specific elements.
  • 00:00:22
    And believe it or not,
  • 00:00:23
    there's a lot of cool ones to talk about.
  • 00:00:24
    We got 20 games, so let's get started off with number 20.
  • 00:00:28
    "Kin-strife" is an upcoming game
  • 00:00:29
    that's a medieval strategy RPG,
  • 00:00:32
    but with the main hook being realistic physics simulations.
  • 00:00:37
    As you can see onscreen here with the combat,
  • 00:00:39
    they're striving for realism
  • 00:00:40
    with a bunch of different detailed levels of physics
  • 00:00:43
    to articulate character movement,
  • 00:00:45
    the swing of swords, and realistic damage.
  • 00:00:48
    And while it might look goofy to some people out there,
  • 00:00:51
    this type of combat is actually something
  • 00:00:53
    that people really want.
  • 00:00:54
    So "Kin-strife" isn't the first game
  • 00:00:56
    to do this type of physics-based combat,
  • 00:00:59
    but it is the first to implement it
  • 00:01:00
    in a full medieval strategy RPG world,
  • 00:01:04
    where you're gonna create your own character,
  • 00:01:06
    you're gonna wander around, and explore towns,
  • 00:01:08
    and go on quests to try and become a bigger knight,
  • 00:01:12
    or just general adventurer.
  • 00:01:13
    So while, at first glance,
  • 00:01:15
    to some people it might seem goofy,
  • 00:01:17
    this is something that a lot of people have been wanting
  • 00:01:19
    for a while.
  • 00:01:20
    It's also just non-linear single-player game
  • 00:01:23
    specifically set in 13th-century Germany.
  • 00:01:26
    There's a lot of potential here, it's from a small studio.
  • 00:01:29
    This is really the only thing we've seen
  • 00:01:30
    that they've worked on,
  • 00:01:31
    but it's a lot of cool ideas.
  • 00:01:34
    As of right now, "Kin-strife" is just slated as coming soon,
  • 00:01:36
    but we're expecting to see more pretty soon.
  • 00:01:39
    Next over at number 19, we have the "Quinfall,"
  • 00:01:41
    which looks to be a pretty massive and ambitious MMORPG.
  • 00:01:46
    Absolutely vast worlds,
  • 00:01:48
    a bunch of different types of characters
  • 00:01:49
    to really build out.
  • 00:01:50
    We've seen knights, archers, rogue-type characters,
  • 00:01:53
    characters that do magic.
  • 00:01:55
    Apparently, the game is going to have
  • 00:01:56
    dozens of different professions.
  • 00:01:59
    And they're going for full medieval fantasy here,
  • 00:02:01
    but covering a variety of different regions,
  • 00:02:03
    a lot of environmental variety,
  • 00:02:05
    apparently taking advantage of RTX and ray tracing,
  • 00:02:08
    ah, and it's apparently going have a full-featured story,
  • 00:02:11
    as well as all the MMORPG elements.
  • 00:02:13
    So this is a lot.
  • 00:02:14
    So while the developers are being somewhat transparent
  • 00:02:17
    and showing off a lot of their updates on a YouTube channel,
  • 00:02:19
    on the other hand,
  • 00:02:21
    there's a lot of speculation out there and disappointment
  • 00:02:23
    that apparently, a lot of the game
  • 00:02:24
    is just using Unreal Engine assets
  • 00:02:26
    just thrown together in a game.
  • 00:02:28
    So there is a lot of debate out there
  • 00:02:29
    as to whether or not this game is gonna be good.
  • 00:02:31
    We're gonna wait and judge the final release, of course,
  • 00:02:34
    but as of right now,
  • 00:02:35
    we're probably gonna be seeing more
  • 00:02:36
    from the "Quinfall" this year.
  • 00:02:39
    Next over number 18, we have "Project Awakening."
  • 00:02:41
    This game was revealed on a PlayStation showcase
  • 00:02:43
    as a PS4 title in 2018,
  • 00:02:47
    and then by like 2019, it kind of went dark.
  • 00:02:50
    It is from Cygames who, more recently you may remember,
  • 00:02:53
    made "Granblue Fantasy Versus,"
  • 00:02:54
    but "Project Awakening"
  • 00:02:56
    just looked like something different.
  • 00:02:57
    It was like a big, massive, medieval, fantasy-action RPG
  • 00:03:01
    with potentially some really cool combat.
  • 00:03:03
    You playing as a knight,
  • 00:03:04
    like killing these big dragon bosses,
  • 00:03:07
    almost kind of like
  • 00:03:07
    more of an action combat-oriented "Dragon's Dogma,"
  • 00:03:11
    like something a little bit more over the top.
  • 00:03:13
    Unfortunately, they went quiet for a while with this game,
  • 00:03:16
    and only just recently did the developers confirm
  • 00:03:19
    that the game is still in the works
  • 00:03:21
    and that it still exists.
  • 00:03:22
    This was thanks to some journalists spotting the game,
  • 00:03:24
    confirmed it still being in the works
  • 00:03:26
    in the publisher's earnings call.
  • 00:03:28
    So we had seen a little gameplay and a thing in 2021
  • 00:03:31
    and we were expecting to see more from this one soon.
  • 00:03:33
    We hope we do because it did look really sweet.
  • 00:03:36
    Next over number 17, we got something totally different.
  • 00:03:38
    It's "Legendary Tales" in VR.
  • 00:03:41
    This thing is just really cool
  • 00:03:43
    if you're kind of like an old-school RPG fan.
  • 00:03:45
    This has been an early access for a while
  • 00:03:47
    and pretty known in the VR community,
  • 00:03:49
    but now in 2024, it's gotten its full release,
  • 00:03:52
    and it's kind of getting out there in more places.
  • 00:03:54
    And essentially, the best way I can pitch it
  • 00:03:56
    is something kind of like oblivion
  • 00:03:58
    or like kind of like old-school elder scrolls,
  • 00:04:01
    but in VR.
  • 00:04:02
    The graphics are kind of lo-fi,
  • 00:04:03
    but they have this really charming appeal to them
  • 00:04:05
    and you can kind of live out your knight fantasy here.
  • 00:04:08
    There are a lot of games
  • 00:04:09
    that have given you a sword and a shield
  • 00:04:11
    and let you go crazy in medieval fantasy,
  • 00:04:13
    but I just think
  • 00:04:14
    the way that "Legendary Tales" goes about it,
  • 00:04:17
    you know, the vibe, the tone to it all,
  • 00:04:19
    is really, really unique.
  • 00:04:20
    To be totally frank,
  • 00:04:21
    I don't think Gameranx talks about VR as much as it should,
  • 00:04:24
    so that's why I'm mentioning this.
  • 00:04:27
    Next over at number 16, we have "The Awakener: Risen."
  • 00:04:30
    Now, get past the generic title,
  • 00:04:31
    and you realize that this game
  • 00:04:33
    is essentially an open-world action RPG
  • 00:04:35
    set in a medieval Europe, but with a fantasy spin.
  • 00:04:39
    And we're bringing this one up
  • 00:04:40
    because it has been in the works for a while.
  • 00:04:41
    It seems like 2024 is the year where it's going to release,
  • 00:04:44
    and a lot of people have kind of dunked on the game
  • 00:04:47
    by saying it's a ripoff of "Dragon's Dogma."
  • 00:04:49
    And yes, from some of the gameplay, you can argue that,
  • 00:04:52
    but the game has its own thing going on.
  • 00:04:54
    A little bit of a different style,
  • 00:04:55
    some really cool enemy types,
  • 00:04:57
    and we're hoping something good can come from this.
  • 00:04:59
    And you know what, if it does really turn out to feel
  • 00:05:01
    like a "Dragon's Dogma 2" ripoff,
  • 00:05:03
    hell, there are some people out there
  • 00:05:04
    that just want more "Dragon's Dogma 2,"
  • 00:05:06
    so you could possibly get it with "The Awakener: Risen."
  • 00:05:08
    We won't know for sure
  • 00:05:09
    until we actually get our hands on it, but yeah.
  • 00:05:12
    Next over number 15, we have "Enotria: The Last Song."
  • 00:05:16
    I mean, in the last couple of years,
  • 00:05:17
    it's worth acknowledging that there has been a deluge
  • 00:05:20
    of games inspired by FromSoftware's work
  • 00:05:23
    with the "Dark Souls" games,
  • 00:05:24
    a lot of games kind of using that formula or that sub-genre
  • 00:05:27
    and doing their own spin on it.
  • 00:05:29
    And "Enotria: The Last Song" is totally down with that.
  • 00:05:32
    It is billed 100% by them as a "Souls" like,
  • 00:05:35
    but this is centered around Italian folklore,
  • 00:05:38
    so it kind of seems like you're playing
  • 00:05:39
    as these badass medieval Italian swordsmen,
  • 00:05:42
    but like with a big fantasy spin on it,
  • 00:05:45
    like over-the-top weird creepy bosses and enemy types.
  • 00:05:49
    And just from the style alone
  • 00:05:50
    and the types of characters on screen and the environments,
  • 00:05:53
    this game does look pretty unique.
  • 00:05:55
    The game development studio is actually from Italy.
  • 00:05:57
    They've worked on a couple of games before,
  • 00:05:59
    but none of them really hit the mainstream, so to speak.
  • 00:06:01
    And this is definitely their biggest project by far,
  • 00:06:04
    and we're really looking forward to seeing more of it.
  • 00:06:06
    As of right now,
  • 00:06:07
    it has a release date slated for August 21st, 2024.
  • 00:06:11
    Next over at number 14, we're gonna mention it.
  • 00:06:13
    We've mentioned it in a lot of lists.
  • 00:06:14
    It's "Dragon Age: Dreadwolf."
  • 00:06:16
    EA and BioWare have been working on this one
  • 00:06:18
    for a long, long time now,
  • 00:06:21
    and we're really hoping, and kind of speculating,
  • 00:06:23
    that 2024 is a year where we see it.
  • 00:06:26
    It's been teased in the past, we've gotten little things.
  • 00:06:28
    You know, we've gotten the title,
  • 00:06:29
    we've gotten little cinematics,
  • 00:06:31
    but nothing really substantial.
  • 00:06:33
    And they've been working on this thing for so long
  • 00:06:35
    "Dragon Age" fans are really chomping at the bit.
  • 00:06:37
    And like elephant in the room,
  • 00:06:38
    there's obviously some huge potential here
  • 00:06:41
    for BioWare to win back some fans.
  • 00:06:43
    I don't know if you know this,
  • 00:06:44
    but they've had some issues with the last couple of games,
  • 00:06:46
    so this could essentially be their return to glory
  • 00:06:49
    or another big misstep.
  • 00:06:50
    We don't know for sure
  • 00:06:51
    just because we haven't seen anything,
  • 00:06:53
    but we think 2024 might be the year, at least we hope.
  • 00:06:57
    Next over number 13, here's something a little different.
  • 00:06:59
    It's called "Mirthwood." Check this out.
  • 00:07:01
    This is like an isometric adventure
  • 00:07:03
    in a medieval fantasy world
  • 00:07:05
    where you create your own character,
  • 00:07:07
    you kind of pick your character archetype,
  • 00:07:09
    and you go out in the world and adventure.
  • 00:07:11
    Seems like there's some survival elements.
  • 00:07:12
    You're hunting, you're crafting,
  • 00:07:14
    but you're also fighting enemies,
  • 00:07:16
    getting quests from villagers,
  • 00:07:17
    and just the art style and everything about it is different.
  • 00:07:20
    It's refreshing.
  • 00:07:21
    We played so many gritty, realistic,
  • 00:07:23
    awesome medieval battle simulators and stuff like that.
  • 00:07:26
    Sometimes, I like a little bit more of an old-school,
  • 00:07:28
    top-down RPG adventure.
  • 00:07:30
    And this one with the medieval fantasy vibes
  • 00:07:32
    seems like it could scratch a perfect itch.
  • 00:07:35
    As of right now, this is slated for third quarter of 2024,
  • 00:07:39
    and we can't wait to see more.
  • 00:07:41
    Next over at number 12, we have "Avowed,"
  • 00:07:43
    this is Obsidian's next big game.
  • 00:07:45
    Obsidian, of course,
  • 00:07:46
    the maker of legendary RPGs like "Fallout: New Vegas."
  • 00:07:50
    This is their big collaboration with Xbox Game Studios
  • 00:07:53
    who now owns them.
  • 00:07:55
    "Avowed" actually takes place in the same universe
  • 00:07:58
    as their "Pillars of Eternity" games,
  • 00:08:00
    but this is a different style of games.
  • 00:08:02
    Some people are gonna be calling it, of course,
  • 00:08:04
    like Obsidian's "Skyrim," but it looks a little different.
  • 00:08:08
    It's first-person combat with some flexibility there.
  • 00:08:11
    But the world, the setting, the art style,
  • 00:08:14
    all of it just seems distinctly different.
  • 00:08:16
    You're gonna be swinging swords, slinging spells,
  • 00:08:19
    and fighting monsters.
  • 00:08:20
    And at this point, Obsidian is pretty good at that.
  • 00:08:23
    This one, we still need to see more, honestly,
  • 00:08:26
    because the few bits of gameplay they did show off,
  • 00:08:28
    it wasn't enough.
  • 00:08:29
    It's hard to really judge the game yet,
  • 00:08:30
    but we do have some faith in Obsidian.
  • 00:08:32
    They've made some really cool games in the past,
  • 00:08:34
    and this one is slated
  • 00:08:36
    for third quarter, fourth quarter 2024.
  • 00:08:40
    Next over at number 11, we have "Pax Dei."
  • 00:08:42
    This is a social sandbox MMO
  • 00:08:45
    that is heavily medieval-oriented,
  • 00:08:47
    and it has a lot of potential.
  • 00:08:49
    I mean, just looking at it, it seems cool.
  • 00:08:51
    It seems like it's really going
  • 00:08:53
    for actually replicating that medieval look and feel.
  • 00:08:57
    There are some fantastical elements, sure,
  • 00:08:59
    but mostly it's you living in this world,
  • 00:09:03
    worrying about your village, taking care of your clan,
  • 00:09:06
    making decisions,
  • 00:09:06
    actually living life possibly with other players,
  • 00:09:09
    and then going out and adventuring,
  • 00:09:11
    where the further you go away from the heartland,
  • 00:09:14
    the more dangerous the world gets.
  • 00:09:16
    You create your own character
  • 00:09:17
    and you go out in this world
  • 00:09:18
    that looks, frankly, pretty gorgeous.
  • 00:09:20
    Just recently at the time of making this video,
  • 00:09:22
    there was an alpha play test
  • 00:09:24
    and some of the early responses are pretty good.
  • 00:09:26
    There's some gameplay out there,
  • 00:09:28
    you get to see how vast the world is,
  • 00:09:29
    how the combat kind of works,
  • 00:09:31
    and we really think this one has potential.
  • 00:09:33
    Apparently, it is going to be entering early access
  • 00:09:35
    at some point in 2024,
  • 00:09:37
    so you can check it out for yourself.
  • 00:09:39
    Next over at number 10, we have "No Rest for the Wicked,"
  • 00:09:42
    the newest game from the people
  • 00:09:43
    behind "Ori and the Blind Forest"
  • 00:09:45
    and "Ori and the Will of the Wisps,"
  • 00:09:47
    but "No Rest for the Wicked" is a very different game.
  • 00:09:50
    It's a top-down medieval fantasy, adventure, RPG,
  • 00:09:55
    kind of in the vein of like a "Diablo,"
  • 00:09:57
    but very much its own thing with a focus on storytelling,
  • 00:10:01
    adventuring, and exploration,
  • 00:10:03
    and just a beautiful, gorgeous, unique art style.
  • 00:10:06
    We did make a video on this game,
  • 00:10:07
    and it being an early access, it does have flaws.
  • 00:10:10
    Also, it's not the complete game yet.
  • 00:10:12
    But the developers
  • 00:10:13
    have very much been working on it constantly,
  • 00:10:15
    adding updates,
  • 00:10:16
    and it absolutely has a ton of potential.
  • 00:10:19
    The foundations make for an awesome game
  • 00:10:21
    that I'm already really, really enjoying.
  • 00:10:23
    And when they really perfect everything for a full release,
  • 00:10:26
    I think this is gonna be a contender
  • 00:10:27
    for just a kick game.
  • 00:10:29
    "No Rest for the Wicked" has fun combat,
  • 00:10:32
    a really good sense of atmosphere and exploration.
  • 00:10:35
    It's got some good gore and violence
  • 00:10:37
    and just a unique mythical fantasy world
  • 00:10:40
    that's unlike any other I've seen in a game.
  • 00:10:42
    So that's definitely worth something.
  • 00:10:44
    Like I said right now,
  • 00:10:45
    it is available on early access on PC,
  • 00:10:47
    but eventually you're gonna be able
  • 00:10:48
    to play it on consoles too with the full release.
  • 00:10:52
    Next over at number nine, we have "Kingmakers."
  • 00:10:54
    This game is...
  • 00:10:56
    This is awesome, I love this idea.
  • 00:10:58
    I don't know if this counts as a medieval game,
  • 00:10:59
    but damn it, you know what?
  • 00:11:00
    I think it does.
  • 00:11:01
    Essentially, it's a medieval battle simulator,
  • 00:11:03
    kinda like RPG thing,
  • 00:11:05
    but your character can utilize stuff from the 21st century.
  • 00:11:08
    Yes, this game, if you're online a lot,
  • 00:11:10
    you have seen the trailer for this,
  • 00:11:12
    where there's a medieval battle going on
  • 00:11:14
    with tons of enemy forces,
  • 00:11:15
    and suddenly a guy in a pickup truck shows up,
  • 00:11:18
    runs everybody over, gets out of the car,
  • 00:11:20
    and shoots everybody with a gun.
  • 00:11:22
    Yes, that's this game.
  • 00:11:23
    And we think that's a really creative and fun idea
  • 00:11:26
    and we need more of those.
  • 00:11:27
    And "Kingmakers" isn't like just a meme,
  • 00:11:30
    like it's not just a viral moment.
  • 00:11:31
    It seems like it's got actual action strategy
  • 00:11:34
    sandbox elements to it,
  • 00:11:36
    as well as like a whole element of building up your kingdom,
  • 00:11:39
    doing all that,
  • 00:11:40
    and then setting out to battle
  • 00:11:42
    with planning where trebuchet go, where forces go, all that.
  • 00:11:45
    Then, you get to run in with a gun and have some fun.
  • 00:11:48
    It could potentially be a really good mix of genres
  • 00:11:50
    and really just a good send up.
  • 00:11:51
    It's being published by tinyBuild,
  • 00:11:53
    and they would know what they're doing,
  • 00:11:54
    and this is releasing sometime in 2024.
  • 00:11:58
    Next up at number eight,
  • 00:11:59
    we have the "Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC."
  • 00:12:02
    Yeah, "Elden Ring" isn't quite medieval,
  • 00:12:04
    but like the year "Elden Ring" came out,
  • 00:12:06
    we cheated on that medieval games list too,
  • 00:12:08
    because you know what, there's swords, horses, shields,
  • 00:12:12
    a lot of castles, so it counts for something.
  • 00:12:14
    And "Shadow of the Erdtree"
  • 00:12:16
    is one of the most anticipated releases of the year.
  • 00:12:19
    That's crazy.
  • 00:12:20
    It's also just a DLC or expansion for a game,
  • 00:12:23
    but it's "Elden Ring,"
  • 00:12:24
    one of the biggest games to hit in the last couple of years.
  • 00:12:27
    So this is apparently going to be the biggest thing
  • 00:12:30
    since sliced bread.
  • 00:12:31
    FromSoftware has been working on it for a while now.
  • 00:12:34
    We don't know too much about it,
  • 00:12:35
    other than a trailer that showed some new abilities,
  • 00:12:38
    some new bosses,
  • 00:12:39
    a new area which Miyazaki, series creator,
  • 00:12:42
    has said that is roughly the size of Limgrave
  • 00:12:45
    from the original game.
  • 00:12:46
    So you have some perspective there,
  • 00:12:47
    but we're just really excited to see
  • 00:12:49
    what can go down with this one
  • 00:12:50
    because FromSoftware does a really, really good job
  • 00:12:53
    with their DLCs in the past.
  • 00:12:55
    So we're really excited to see
  • 00:12:57
    like what the next chapter of "Elden Ring" can really be
  • 00:13:00
    because that alone, just that phrase, is really exciting us.
  • 00:13:05
    All I gotta know now
  • 00:13:05
    is that it is releasing June 20th, 2024.
  • 00:13:09
    Next over at number seven, we have "Chrono Odyssey,"
  • 00:13:12
    a game that's been in the works for a while,
  • 00:13:14
    and frankly it doesn't have a release date,
  • 00:13:16
    but it looks absolutely awesome.
  • 00:13:18
    We've seen knights on horseback
  • 00:13:20
    running from monstrous dragons,
  • 00:13:22
    you playing as kind of like a knight in shining armor
  • 00:13:25
    with sword and shield, witches, mages,
  • 00:13:28
    all of this going down almost as like MMORPG raids
  • 00:13:32
    because the game is an MMORPG specifically for PS5.
  • 00:13:36
    It's been heavily featured
  • 00:13:37
    on the PlayStation YouTube channel
  • 00:13:39
    and some gameplay trailers,
  • 00:13:40
    and there's gotta be something to this one.
  • 00:13:42
    The world looks absolutely massive and gorgeous.
  • 00:13:45
    There is like five enemy factions in the game
  • 00:13:48
    and the Unreal Engine graphics are really working here.
  • 00:13:50
    Again, this is another ambitious one,
  • 00:13:52
    frankly, I think at this point,
  • 00:13:54
    high-powered, big-budget graphics, MMORPGs just tend to be.
  • 00:13:57
    We haven't really seen many pop off,
  • 00:13:59
    but "Chrono Odyssey" is gonna give it a shot,
  • 00:14:01
    and it seems like it's releasing in 2024.
  • 00:14:05
    Now, next over at number six,
  • 00:14:06
    we have the "Gothic 1 Remake."
  • 00:14:09
    The original "Gothic" is getting the remake treatment
  • 00:14:11
    and it's been in the works for a minute now,
  • 00:14:14
    and I think this is the type of game
  • 00:14:15
    like it's like just what the doctor ordered.
  • 00:14:17
    Look, if there's no new "Elder Scrolls"
  • 00:14:19
    or really any other like old-school
  • 00:14:21
    kind of PC RPG coming out soon,
  • 00:14:23
    "Gothic" ideally can scratch a certain itch for some people.
  • 00:14:27
    It's being completely remade in Unreal Engine 5,
  • 00:14:29
    it's looking absolutely gorgeous,
  • 00:14:31
    and hopefully a really good spin
  • 00:14:33
    on the classic medieval fantasy RPG.
  • 00:14:36
    And I mean it's a tough remake
  • 00:14:37
    because the original was from 2001,
  • 00:14:39
    but PC fans really loved it.
  • 00:14:42
    The original really had that old-school PC5 to it,
  • 00:14:45
    but the new remake is coming not only to PC
  • 00:14:47
    but also PS5 and Xbox Series X and S.
  • 00:14:50
    And it's slated as of right now for the second half of 2024.
  • 00:14:55
    Next over at number five, we have "Blight: Survival."
  • 00:14:58
    This one was announced a few years back
  • 00:14:59
    and it made a splash thanks to its stunning visuals.
  • 00:15:03
    A lone knight wandering through a plague-ridden landscape
  • 00:15:07
    slaying zombies.
  • 00:15:09
    Absolutely stunning graphics, good, chunky,
  • 00:15:11
    almost realistic weighty combat,
  • 00:15:14
    and people were just into that, man.
  • 00:15:16
    But believe it or not,
  • 00:15:17
    this game is more than just an adventure.
  • 00:15:19
    Apparently, it is going to have a story,
  • 00:15:20
    but it's actually a medieval co-op extraction game,
  • 00:15:24
    so you're gonna be playing this with other people.
  • 00:15:26
    This isn't just like a single-player adventure.
  • 00:15:28
    Some people want that, some people don't.
  • 00:15:30
    But I think either way,
  • 00:15:31
    some of the zombie killing
  • 00:15:33
    and just like the atmosphere and tone here
  • 00:15:35
    looks really frankly incredible.
  • 00:15:37
    The fact that it seems like it might kind of have
  • 00:15:38
    some survival horror elements to it too
  • 00:15:40
    really have us excited.
  • 00:15:41
    We haven't heard much from this one recently,
  • 00:15:43
    but we're hoping it comes back in full force in 2024.
  • 00:15:45
    I had to talk about this one 'cause it's cool.
  • 00:15:49
    Next over at number four,
  • 00:15:50
    we have "Senua's Saga: Hellblade II."
  • 00:15:52
    This is continuing the story of the original game,
  • 00:15:55
    featuring a woman suffering from psychosis,
  • 00:15:57
    but now adventuring to Iceland
  • 00:15:59
    and engaging in battles with giants, men,
  • 00:16:02
    and all kinds of weird crazy stuff.
  • 00:16:05
    Visually and tonally,
  • 00:16:06
    I'll say with the original "Hellblade" and this one,
  • 00:16:08
    there's nothing else out there quite like this.
  • 00:16:11
    We've seen this type of style or vibe in films,
  • 00:16:14
    but not in a game
  • 00:16:16
    and that's why I think the "Hellblade" games are special.
  • 00:16:18
    I really hope the second one
  • 00:16:20
    can really continue the momentum of the first,
  • 00:16:22
    kind of expand on the combat and stuff
  • 00:16:23
    because this adventure does look really cool, and gritty,
  • 00:16:27
    and frankly kind of scary.
  • 00:16:29
    Thankfully, we'll be able to check it out soon.
  • 00:16:30
    We don't have to wait too much longer
  • 00:16:32
    because it's releasing May 21st, 2024.
  • 00:16:36
    Next down at number three we have "Dragon's Dogma 2."
  • 00:16:38
    This is one of the big RPG releases of the year,
  • 00:16:41
    and it seems like "Dragon's Dogma" fans
  • 00:16:43
    are absolutely loving it.
  • 00:16:45
    Capcom knew what they were doing here.
  • 00:16:46
    This game is a niche cult-favorite, so they gave us more.
  • 00:16:50
    They didn't reinvent the wheel,
  • 00:16:52
    they made a sequel
  • 00:16:53
    and carried those elements and those ideas,
  • 00:16:55
    and tried to flush them out
  • 00:16:56
    and make them better in a 2024 package.
  • 00:16:59
    The game absolutely has flaws,
  • 00:17:00
    but it also has a ton of charm
  • 00:17:02
    and a bunch of content to play through
  • 00:17:05
    in a really unique world with fun combat
  • 00:17:07
    and character building and companion system.
  • 00:17:09
    There really aren't any other RPGs
  • 00:17:11
    like "Dragon's Dogma," and now 2,
  • 00:17:13
    and I'm really curious to see
  • 00:17:14
    how these games influence game development moving forward.
  • 00:17:17
    Are we gonna see other games
  • 00:17:18
    really try and do a "Dragon's Dogma" type thing?
  • 00:17:21
    We mentioned a game previously,
  • 00:17:22
    but I don't know, there's something about "Dragon's Dogma 2"
  • 00:17:25
    and the development team behind it.
  • 00:17:26
    Like, maybe it's just their magic,
  • 00:17:28
    it's something that you can't quite replicate.
  • 00:17:31
    So "Dragon's Dogma 2"
  • 00:17:32
    is definitely something you should consider looking into
  • 00:17:34
    if you haven't already.
  • 00:17:36
    Next down at number two, we have "Manor Lords."
  • 00:17:39
    This just released an early access for PC,
  • 00:17:41
    and this is just a really cool idea for a game.
  • 00:17:44
    It's being developed by a very small team
  • 00:17:46
    and it's a medieval strategy game
  • 00:17:48
    that is actually all around city building.
  • 00:17:51
    So while you are a person walking around
  • 00:17:53
    and you can do like the big, large-scale siege,
  • 00:17:56
    tactical battles that you've seen
  • 00:17:57
    in a lot of other medieval games,
  • 00:17:58
    there's also a lot of city building elements to this
  • 00:18:01
    that just make it seem a bit more compelling.
  • 00:18:04
    Farms, houses, wells, roads, commerce,
  • 00:18:07
    all that stuff that city builders really love is here,
  • 00:18:10
    with all the medieval battling stuff, too.
  • 00:18:12
    Falcon did the before you buy on this one
  • 00:18:14
    and came away really liking it.
  • 00:18:15
    It's got a lot of good elements.
  • 00:18:17
    It is an early access,
  • 00:18:18
    so there's some stuff it really needs to work out.
  • 00:18:20
    But in terms of the idea, the strategy,
  • 00:18:23
    medieval city builder kind of simulation hybrid,
  • 00:18:26
    it really, really does a good job
  • 00:18:28
    making good on those promises.
  • 00:18:31
    Now, finally down at number one,
  • 00:18:32
    we have "Kingdom Come: Deliverance II."
  • 00:18:34
    This is the follow up to "Kingdom Come: Deliverance,"
  • 00:18:36
    a game that had a cult following for a reason.
  • 00:18:39
    It launched kind of in a rough state,
  • 00:18:40
    but turned out to be a really, really unique experience
  • 00:18:43
    centered around realism
  • 00:18:45
    and some solid survival and simulation elements
  • 00:18:48
    in a package that just really emphasized realism
  • 00:18:51
    and storytelling in war-torn medieval Europe
  • 00:18:54
    and the journey of the hero, essentially.
  • 00:18:56
    And with the second game,
  • 00:18:57
    you are continuing the footsteps of that hero, Henry.
  • 00:19:01
    The game that looks like it has a lot more action,
  • 00:19:03
    a lot more combat, a more advanced main character,
  • 00:19:06
    and the story just continuing.
  • 00:19:08
    Warhorse absolutely crushed it
  • 00:19:10
    with "Kingdom Come: Deliverance"
  • 00:19:11
    not only just like the game, but also the long-term support.
  • 00:19:14
    So "Kingdom Come: Deliverance II,"
  • 00:19:16
    now with a bigger budget and more time
  • 00:19:17
    just has the potential to be a huge success
  • 00:19:21
    and a really cool game.
  • 00:19:22
    Thankfully, even though this game
  • 00:19:24
    was just announced not too long ago,
