Why Byleth is Underrated and Undermined TheMetalBlade5 2024-03-27 | Fire Emblem: Three Houses has such a large cast of very popular and beloved characters. But Byleth has always been a noticeable exception, being deemed to have no character. However, someone I've noticed for a long time is that Byleth does have a character, which the came failed to properly convey. Leading to them being another character in the series I deem to be underrated. Now I'm here to finally explain why I think that.Gameplay by Roamer, omegaevolution, RedRawNes, JohneAwesome, justonegamr, Collector Togami, BLAZEPLAYS and Xenomic.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Tekken 8 is INSANE TheMetalBlade5 2024-02-29 | 2024 has already got off to a good start for me, seeing as January saw the release of Tekken 8 - one of my most anticipated games of the year. I quickly became so hyped for this game in the lead up to its release, that I desperately wanted to discuss my thoughts on it. To get all my very positive feelings on it off my chest.Additional gameplay by theRadBrad, Sea Leaf Dojo, Lonechambers, son_of_sparda dx, Hi!

Top 10 Favourite Zelda Dungeons TheMetalBlade5 2023-12-22 | Dungeons are the major objectives present throughout the Zelda games - and an aspect I feel has been left on the backburner in the most recent entries. So as I reminisced on the dungeons of the past, I got to thinking about which ones are my favourites in the series. Thus inspiring me to compile them into another countdown.0:00 Intro1:39 Number 104:05 Number 96:34 Number 88:54 Number 711:20 Number 613:37 Number 516:06 Number 418:38 Number 321:02 Number 223:39 Number 1Gameplay by ZackScottGames, SourceSpy91, ZeldaMaster, Austin John Plays, ZorZelda, SweetJohnnyCage, World of Longplays, justonegamr, packattack04082, BossBattleChannel, Boss Fight Database and TheGutsyGamer.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Top 10 Weirdest Crossovers in Games TheMetalBlade5 2023-08-05 | Crossovers can often be a very memorable moment from how hype-inducing they can be, but they can also be memorable for how weird they can be. By having some of the most random IPs meet each other and/or team up in some of the most bizarre circumstances. Video games are certainly no stranger to this either, as there are both countless and a seemingly ever-increasing rate of weird crossovers being made in this medium. So I thought it would be interesting to countdown what I think are the ten weirdest crossovers that have ever happened in video games. 0:00 Intro1:49 Number 104:29 Number 97:10 Number 89:58 Number 712:43 Number 615:42 Number 518:18 Number 421:06 Number 323:46 Number 227:22 Number 1Gameplay by warwolf04, Krizalid99v2, Games Fan, bryan3586, ShiryuGL, No Commentary Horror, aWiibo, Master0fHyrule, justonegamr, Zephiel810, packattack04082, EvilnissanGTR, FCPlaythroughs, King-X, Project Longplay, GamerJGB, SuperShadic lit4life, GameRiot, DarkspinesSonic, BluRacer7, Bochora, Argyle Alligator, EDQUINOX, LegendaryTenma, Chaos Productions Inc, Sing Venus Unicorn, TempestWay, kai215, ZackScottGames, Shadowfighterpro, HeroVoltsy, TapGameplay, Kalabelai Gaming, IceXGame.

Why Robin is Underrated and Overlooked TheMetalBlade5 2023-05-12 | Fire Emblem Awakening has a number of strong points, and amongst them is the writing of its three main characters; Chrom, Lucina and Robin. However Robin is more often treated as an afterthought compared to their fellow stars and is mainly seen as just "the avatar." But I've always believed Robin to be more than that and is a fully-fleshed out character in their own right who deservingly lives up to their place alongside Chrom and Lucina, by supporting both them and Awakening's story. So I think it's their turn for me to explain why I think they're underrated.Gameplay by justonegamr, omegaevolution, Linkmstr, Ok Dude, Raikaien, Phoenixmaster1 and poledoo.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Fire Emblem Engage Leaves Me Conflicted TheMetalBlade5 2023-04-04 | Fire Emblem Engage's announcement sadly left me unimpressed compared to everyone else, which had me not looking forward to the game in the build up to its release. But after caving by playing and finishing the game myself, my feelings on this game are very conflicted as there were a mixture of things I liked and didn't like. So I'm going to discuss them... and likely get killed in the process.Gameplay by Welsknight Gaming, justonegamr, Mekkah, Phoenixmaster1, Jason's Video Game Sources, gwenhwyfach cagliostro, Linkmstr, Collector Togami, omegaevolution, Retro Dodo Guides, Dark Knight Player, Iced Coffee Gaming, The Sacred Spear, JohneAwesome and BuffMaisterCopyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

JoJos Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean - Thoughts & Impressions TheMetalBlade5 2023-02-28 | After covering all the previous JoJo parts that have been animated so far, and with the adaptation of Stone Ocean FINALLY finished after waiting a whole year, I am now able to do this video I have kept on the backburner that entire time. This part gave me tons of unexpected reactions, emotions and impressions compared to what I got from its initial word of mouth, with it ultimately becoming such an insane and unpredictable story, all of which I wanted to express. And now with this, I can at last close the doors and round off the original JoJo universe.Music rips by MegMew and IShowPucci(Originals by Yugo Kanno)Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Conceptualising Marvel VS Capcom 4 TheMetalBlade5 2022-12-30 | Marvel VS Capcom is such a beloved franchise amongst fighting game fans, however it has been trapped in a period of almost complete silence and uncertainty after Infinite underperformed on all fronts. But many fans of this series still hold out hope that we may finally get a proper Marvel VS Capcom 4, with dozens of ideas and concepts floating around for what it could look like. And now it's time I presented my own take on this subject (albeit one with many similarities to others).0:00 Intro1:57 Returning Features & Characters5:18 Newcomers (Marvel)12:14 Newcomers (Capcom)25:12 Final Boss, Story & Other Features31:12 DLC Plan & Characters (Marvel)39:14 DLC Characters (Capcom)47:16 OutroGameplay by Chaos Productions Inc, NST Gaming, Laponce Thompson, Rubhen925, Heefnoff, The Krypt, Fighting Game Playthroughs, PC Master Race Latinoamerica, Regular Electronic Athlete, Manoj Varughese, DoctorBadvibes, VG247.com, Hectorlo, lonewolftony, Ahab, Nysith, Diplomat1080p, Gaming with Griff Griffin, THE GAMER EYES, warwolf04, 8 Bitty LP Committee, Lethal One, Tuan Khoi TV, KaitoJoka, Jorge Luis Contreras Miranda, FinalCrashSoR3, omegaevolution, Blaze Xth, Incoming Kizzy, RajmanGaming HD, MrKOF3188, TannerOfTheNorth, macnubnub, yh, Super, Texas LoneWolf, MegaQuint, Mekkah Dee, MuriOfWar, Game Archive, Xaladin007, Superhuman Boob Lover, Phantasy ZX, TheInnocentSinful, desk, Blaster Nation, Brunoborne, theMGamez, Ray Dhimitri, TLWG Keith, DemoGorgonZola and The Gaming Mole: Brad_Ry.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Why Azura is Underrated and Misrepresented TheMetalBlade5 2022-10-22 | Fire Emblem Fates is a pretty flawed game, but I think most of its cast consists of good characters who were let down by the game's writing rarely focusing on what makes them good. Several of them have had this showcased in other videos, but I think another clear example of this is present with the game's deuteragonist - Azura. She is largely ignored and written off as "boring", however at her core I believe she is a good and sympathetic character who deserved better. And as part of thinking over many Fire Emblem characters I think are underrated, I accidentally ended up having a lot to say about her.Gameplay by omegaevolution, justonegamr, BLAZEPLAYS, Phoenixmaster1, Chi Montana & Xwado, LionsAbyss Archive and Xeno ArchiveCopyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

JoJos Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R Impressions TheMetalBlade5 2022-09-24 | An unexpected, yet welcome, surprise this year was the announcement and release of the remaster to the fighting game JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle - All Star Battle R! I never got a chance to play the original All Star Battle so finally gaining the ability to do so left me very excited. So as I've been left struggling to find JoJo-related material to make videos about for the time being, I thought this was a good opportunity to give my thoughts on this game now that I've played it myself.Additional gameplay by iVoltGaming, STORM MASTER, Vishkujo, badyacht and IGN.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

How Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Improves on the Original TheMetalBlade5 2022-08-22 | Despite the odds with the original Fire Emblem Warriors not receiving the best reception in the world, the series got a new Warriors game focusing exclusively on Three Houses. This time around, the end product was so much better and substantially improved on the weaker aspects of the original. And now desperately trying to find an excuse to talk about this game, I decided to cover just how much of an improvement this is.Gameplay by casualgamerreed, justonegamr, Majora's Puppet, aaren2991, Frederick Vandoren, TrophyGamers, StarChases, Collector Togami, Linkmstr, The Sacred Spear, Burner Reborn Gaming, Typhlosion4President and Joy Happiness.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Conceptualising Tekken X Street Fighter TheMetalBlade5 2022-06-04 | 10 years ago, a crossover between Street Fight and Tekken, aptly named Street Fighter X Tekken, was released. But due to Capcom's questionable decisions around the game's development and release; it underperformed, did not impress fans and was left mostly forgotten about. But Namco had plans for their own game with this crossover following Tekken's formula that appeared to face numerous difficulties in development before it was put on hold indefinitely. So I decided to present my idea for what the game could've looked like if it released nowadays.Gameplay by BigDW22, IceSoldier16, MrBlackChocobo, Needlecrash, PlayStation Access, DrewTony'z, NafrielX, Chaos Productions Inc, OmRobby, bob buel, Life and Death, TheInnocentSinful, Hi!

Top 10 Favourite Kirby Copy Abilities TheMetalBlade5 2022-03-09 | Kirby games are known for the various strong, unique and wacky copy abilities that Kirby obtains from sucking up enemies, with an ever growing roster of powers as the series continues. While I love many of the abilities just from across the games I've played as I haven't lived long enough to play them all, there were 10 in particular that really stand out to me when lined up with all the others.

The Missed Potential of Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl TheMetalBlade5 2022-01-23 | The long awaited Gen 4 remakes are finally here in the form of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. But their announcement left me with many concerns on if they could truly do the Sinnoh region justice, which came true for almost every single worry I had. This left me with a lot to be desired from these remakes to the point that I chose not to get them, and now I want to express how much better I think these games could've been.Gameplay by omegaevolution, Mixeli, Marriland, MunchingOrange, dolphinsense, Blaze302, JohneAwesome, TheGoldenEevee, Joe Hammer Gaming, SupaBilly, Redfilipe, PyroPyo, Gameplay Vault, BLAINES, Tarx 96, JimGaming HD, Zephiel810, Pokemon Archives, foofootoo, Calem McNazreenn, ZackScottGames and swagsire.millenniumloops:youtube.com/c/millenniumloopsVIKthor01:deviantart.com/vikthor01Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Conceptualising an Injustice 3 TheMetalBlade5 2021-11-10 | Following Netherrealm Studios' usual cycle of game releases, an Injustice 3 would normally be on the table. While some doubt has been cast on this possibility, I had plenty of my own ideas and those inspired by others for my vision of what Injustice 3 could be like. Primarily concerning what new characters could make it in, including DLC, and what the story that could potentially be the end of this saga could be like.

Top 10 Favourite Mario Party Boards TheMetalBlade5 2021-09-14 | Superstars has got me reminiscing on the boards throughout the entire Mario Party series as I would ideally like to see more added post-launch despite how unlikely that scenario is.

Conceptualising a Project X Zone 3 TheMetalBlade5 2021-08-16 | Years ago, I played a dumb bizarre game called Project X Zone, which was a crossover between Namco, Capcom and Sega franchises. Then I played half of the sequel but started to forget about it and realise the flaws in its design. But recently as I randomly remembered the series I started to wonder what a third game could've been like which spawned many ideas that I ironically became passionate about despite how embarrassed I get over playing these games, so then came a different kind of conceptualising video.Gameplay by LordCloudStrife, omegaevolution, Desilent49, TheGameTagerZ, MegamanNG, devilleon7, ZEROthefirst, Wanderbots, OldManEZ GameZ, GamingPotential, WillowAlchemist, Grea Chan, iMackShunGames, NoMoneyRanger, RajmanGamingHD, ReplayBurners, ShadowFeline, BlackAzuriteGaming, PikohanRevenge, Shirrako, jakenastysnake, SteadiestShark and Boss Fight Database.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

My Persona 5 Strikers Experience TheMetalBlade5 2021-06-02 | Over the past year I had a desire to the play the Persona 5 Musou game, then-known as Persona 5 Scramble, but slowly lost hope and avoided everything related to it due to being Japan only at the time. However the game finally got an English release a year later under the name Persona 5 Strikers, and now that I've finished this game too I wanted to go over the wacky experience I had playing it.Gameplay by JohneAwesome, BuffMaister and Boss Fight Database.

Conceptualising a GOOD Jump Force TheMetalBlade5 2021-04-30 | Jump Force, while not being a game I didn't really paid much attention to and having a lack of interest in Shonen Jump as a whole, was still something I found to have a lot of missed potential in all areas. This got me thinking of how the game could've been better, particularly when remembering fan requests and predictions for the roster prior to release, which ultimately made me decide to make a video conceptualising a better version of the game despite likely getting some things wrong.Gameplay by TetraNinja, Zanar Aesthetics, BILBZY, ENXGMA, Papa Berto, Shirrako, xTGE, LuentrixGames, Duaganta ZX, Muramishi, Maximilian Dood, Data Squad Station, MforMovesets, Mr Alberonen and Xemasklyr.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Anime Retrospective - Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (DanMachi) TheMetalBlade5 2021-03-31 | I've gone a while without making anything that was solely anime-related out of not wanting to alienate people, but after this break I felt it was time I went over a series I've watched for some time now and have had an interesting experience with.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Bonus Episode 3: World S [3/3] TheMetalBlade5 2021-03-20 | In this episode we make it to the end of the road with the last two galaxies of World S, starting with probably my favourite in this world with the Boss Blitz Galaxy which takes the callbacks to a whole new level thanks to its familiar faces and ending with the one galaxy in the world that isn't a reference, being the Flip-Out Galaxy.

Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.

Response to Modern SMG4 TheMetalBlade5 2021-02-15 | SMG4 is a Youtube machinima series I have watched for many years now because I found his videos hilarious, however over the past several years I have started to enjoy the series less and less.

My Paper Mario: The Origami King Experience TheMetalBlade5 2021-01-27 | Paper Mario has become highly divisive series over the years as its gameplay format switched to a style that angered many fans of the older titles. This has continued into the most recent game in the series, The Origami King, with many of those fans claiming it to be a rehash of the previous two, despite clear signs of improvement being present in the trailers. As I've finished the game already I wanted to recount my experience and impressions of the game whilst simultaneously expressing how this is not what some claim it to be.Gameplay by whatageek, chuggaaconroy, ZackScottGames, Mario Party Legacy and BeardBear.

Fairy Tail Game Impressions TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-23 | I actually like Fairy Tail, and now there's a Fairy Tail game, no explanation needed. But from what I've seen, many anime games appear to be of low quality which has made me skip over those for other series I like, however this game didn't appear to necessarily be going in that same direction based on the marketing so I bought. With this being my first proper anime game I thought it would be interesting to give my impressions on it, included the things I liked and the things I didn't...Gameplay by Edu, MKIceAndFire, Red Venom Corp., HeroVoltsy, Trophygamers, michelle_tan101, CMG, LNZ Plays, Juviaw, Code Breaker, PS360HD2, FEARnoHate and Regis Gaming Story.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 11: Right Back at Ya! TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-22 | In this episode, the plan was to simply do the two remaining small galaxies of World 3 before finishing it off but it took a bit longer than expected due to Prankster Comets padding things out. But when we reach this World's final galaxy we take full advantage of the forces thrown at us.Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 10: Chills Down the Spine TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-21 | In this episode, we get back on track with our progression through World 3 as we see more Galaxies here that I really like, starting with the Haunty Halls Galaxy which takes the spooky theme in a more unique direction, then followed by the underrated Freezy Flake Galaxy that I have a lot to say in regards to defending it.Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 9: Pranksters Paradise TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-18 | In this episode, now that Prankster Comets have started to show they keep appearing all over the place, so our current objective is to take care of as many Prankster Comet missions as possible given their somewhat unpredictable appearance rates.Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 7: Quick Succession TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-14 | In this episode we take care of the Hungry Luma galaxy for World 2 straight away rather than leaving it for later where we complete it in a relatively short amount of time, then we only have the boss galaxy left to do where we follow the same pattern as the first game but with me having a much simpler history with it.Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 6: Curse of Cosmic Proportions TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-12 | In this episode we make a lot of progress through World 2, going quite beyond the average number of missions we have completed across the past few videos, however it comes at a major cost when things start going horribly wrong in a Galaxy that should've otherwise been peaceful.Take care and I'll see you in the next episode.

Response to TheMetalBlade5s Top 10 Popular Games Ive Never Played TheMetalBlade5 2020-12-06 | Trust nobody, not even yourself! In an unexpected turn of events, I am actually making a response video against myself.For anyone who is unaware, back in 2016 I made a video titled "Top 10 Popular Games I've Never Played" which was intended to do exactly that. However it is a terrible video, even for the time it came out, as not only is it outdated as I've now played half the games on the list but some of the entries also go against the criteria I set myself. So I've wanted to make a video expressing how bad this countdown is now so people don't think I still like it.Gameplay by PlaynReview, chuggaaconroy, SuperJeenius, omegaevolution, giedmich, JohneAwesome, WillJV2, MALICEDOLL79, KHAFx and Boss Fight Database.Copyright Act 1976, "allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
