MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: Haunting Ground
#HauntingGround #HauntingGroundAnalysis #SurvivalHorror #MonstersOfTheWeek
Capcom’s Haunting Ground is the spiritual successor to Clock Tower 3 and in many ways one of the most interesting survival horror titles ever made. Iterating on the pulse-pounding defenseless Stalker-Type-Horror genre, Haunting Ground goes places that even Silent Hill 3 only grazed in comparison. Today we talk about what makes this title one of the most fascinating and rich horror games ever created.
I’ve tried for years to find the right angle to cover this game - and to celebrate finally getting it over the finish line, I’m also going to unwrap my beloved factory-sealed PS2 copy of the game (which currently goes for ridiculous prices on the used-game-market thanks to the surge in scalper-scum activity in recent years)

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: Hellnight/Dark Messiah
#Hellnight #HellnightReview #SurvivalHorror #MonstersOfTheWeek
When Survival Horror was on the rise after Resident Evil’s meteoric rise, a ton of (especially Japanese) game companies came up with their own take on the emerging horror sub-genre, with many trying to impart their own twist and flavor on the formula.
Atlus (yes, the SMT/Persona guys) also tried their hand at it with the wonderfully experimental subterranean horror-adventure Hellnight (known as Dark Messiah in Japan).
It came out in 1998 in Japan for the PS1 and was only released in a few European countries in a translated version in December 1999, with few copies and fewer game journalists grasping what this game attempted to do - resulting in abysmal review scores and Atlus ultimately dropping Survival Horror for good. Which is a damn shame, because Hellnight was highly inventive, pioneering many mechanics that have become tried and true staples in survival horror gaming.
A prime example for a game that was far ahead of its time... or rather pearls before swine.

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: Castlevania 64
#Castlevania64 #CastlevaniaReview #MonstersOfTheWeek
There’s probably not a single game on the N64 that received so much unrightful slander as Castlevania (1999). Coming out just under a year after the template-setting Symphony of the Night, the internet hivemind, greatly helped by Koji Igarashi himself, created the meme that Castlevania on the N64 sucks, is a bad game, and a bunch of diarrhea donkey farts by doo-doo-brained developers.
Which is a load of crap, and it’s time we set the record straight.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong by French developer Big Bad Wolf came out today, on May 19th. It's a self-titled "narrative RPG" set in the World of Darkness that puts heavy emphasis on social combat -- dialogue confrontations over direct combat simulation.
I've gotten access to a review code, played it 3 days straight and in this video I'll share with you my thoughts on it, what I like, what works, but also where its balancing-issues and identity crisis can lead to frustration.

#Norco #NorcoReview #GamesFromUnderground
NORCO is a beautiful, ephemeral and astonishingly well-written Sci-Fi Southern Gothic Detective Story set in the petrochemical swamplands of the real-world town of Norco, Louisiana, that touches on many of the most important struggles of our current generation.
It’s been developed by Geography of Robots and published by RawFury and was released in April 2022, and it absolutely took me by storm. This video is a (largely spoiler-free) discussion of the impressions it made on me, themes and game design intricacies that deserve high praise.

In my last video on American McGee’s Alice I asked if people wanted me to continue with the sequel, Madness Returns, and while I expected the one or the other ‘yes, please’, I didn’t expect the cheering it got. A lot of people loved the sequel that came out 11 years later, and I can tell you revisiting it was an absolute joyride. Today, I’ll take you with my on my Journey Through Alice: Madness Returns

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: PowerSlave Exhumed
#PowerSlaveExhumed #PowerSlaveReview #MonstersOfTheWeek
PowerSlave was, in my humble opinion, one of the most overlooked, and super influential Boomer Classic Shooters of the Build-Engine era. The game was developed by Lobotomy Software and released in two completely different versions for PC and consoles (PlayStation and Sega Saturn).
Where the PC version was your standard, run-off-the-mill "doom-clone" shooter, where you traversed linear levels with the odd door-key puzzle, the console versions offered fully polygonal 3D environments with open-ended Metroidvania-style traversal a good deal before Symphony of the Night came out.
With PowerSlave Exhumed, Nightdive has beautifully remastered this overlooked and underrated classic shooter gem with a skillful merging of the best-of-both-worlds of both console versions. It's a damn near perfect remaster and a great and rare example of how video game preservations should be done. This video... talks about why that's the case!

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: American McGee’s Alice
#AmericanMcGeesAlice #AliceReview #MonstersOfTheWeek
American McGee, after making his mark on legendary classics such as Doom and Quake, went solo and created one of the most original and forward-thinking adventure game of the turn of the Millennium: The dark and twisted adaptation of Lewis Carrol’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland with American McGee’s Alice.
It’s a tale that even precedes psychological horror milestones like Silent Hill 2 with a treatment of mental health related topics with tact and taste, an impeccable emo-goth aesthetic and besides all that, incredibly engaging action adventure/shooter gameplay that still holds up to this day. It’s long overdue for me to sing its praises in Monsters of the Week.

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: Dante’s Inferno
#Dante’sInferno #Dante’sInfernoReview #MonstersOfTheWeek
Visceral Games’ video game adaptation of Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy Part 1: Dante’s Inferno has always been one of my guilty pleasure titles. The game was initially planned to be the first of 3 adaptations of the individual parts of the original poems, but it can be conjectured that it didn’t sell well enough to warrant the production of its sequels. Which is a shame.
Today I’m going to talk about why this certainly imperfect, sometimes quite pubescently crass take on the Inferno is actually totally worth playing and ... critically over-analysing. Follow me on my Journey Through Dante’s Inferno and the Nine Circles of the Infernal Underworld!
As stated in the video, here’s some helpful tips if you want to emulate Dante’s Inferno (PS3) in the RPSC3 Emulator on Windows 10 (Other operating systems that the emulator supports should also work, but I haven’t tested it):

#EternalDarkness #EternalDarknessReview #SurvivalHorror #Lovecraftian
MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: ETERNAL DARKNESS: SANITY’S REQUIEM
Eternal Darkness is often named as one of the greatest survival horror games ever made. It was highly creative, technically impressive and a great example of both, great lovecraftian fiction in video games before it became ubiquitous in media, as well as how much a narrative-first approach in game design can benefit a good experience.
It’s an amazing game that sadly almost nobody at the time bought and played.

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: CLOCK TOWER 3
Clock Tower 3 is a game that is dear to my heart, heavily misunderstood and it's gotten far more flack than it deserves by the YouTube "shitting on games" cottage industry over the past decade. So it's due time to show just how great its wild readiness for experimentation and weirdness was, how well it incorporates tone to create a perfect playable slasher movie experience and just how much of a long-term impact its Stalker-Antagonist game design had on the modern wave of survival horror greats of recent years.

Death Trash has been in development by Stephan Hövelbrinks and his small indie developer team Crafting Legends for the past 6 years and this demo is the first publicly available playable version. The developers offered me to play the game and report on it early and I said I’d love to check it out and see if I want to make a video on it.
After playing through the 2-3 hour long demo 3 times I was eager to show you how much of a damn cool, absurd and hilarious post-apocalyptic action RPG dream come true this game is for me. I had a fantastic time.
This demo will be available June 16th through 22 as part of the Steam Next Fest event, Death Trash will hit early access in late summer 2021 with a several times larger playable area and is planned for final release in 2022 for PC, Xbox One, Series S and X, Nintendo Switch as well as PS4 and PS5.
Since this is an early version, bugs and glitches are to be expected.

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: A LOVE LETTER TO VAMPIRE: THE MASQUERADE - REDEMPTION
Christof Romuald’s dark and poignant journey through the ages was the first ever World of Darkness video game adaptation and it’s been a favorite of mine since the day it released. It’s in many ways a poorly balanced, janky and overambitious mess of an Action-RPG, but once you bring it to heel it becomes one of the most lovable, enthralling, fund and enjoyable Vampire games to date that I just had to dedicate a love letter to; I could only let Bloodlines be alone there for so long.

Mundaun is a lovingly hand-crafted first person indie-survival horror tale set in the mountainous alps of Switzerland, dubbed completely in Rumantsch, that boasts with clever, well-executed gameplay ideas, an intriguing story and a charming, unforgettable aesthetic spliced with many moments of genuinely enjoyable, wholesome alpine holiday feel in between bouts of culturally inspired (actually spooky) stealth-horror action.

#Riddick #EscapeFromButcherBay #AssaultOnDarkAthena #RiddickReview
MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDCK:
A Journey Through Butcher Bay (And The Dark Athena)
In the same year as the historical first person shooter Juggernauts Half-Life 2 and Doom 3, the at-the-time quite unknown Swedish developer studio Starbreeze released one of the best movie-license tie-in video games with The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, and delivered a just as great sequel with Assault on Dark Athena 5 years later; two games that are exceedingly hard to come by on PC due to being discontinued in digital stores.
This video is a close examination of those two games and my personal journey of rediscovery of two amazing FPS/RPG/Stealth/Immersive Sim hybrids from the 2000s.

In 1999, the small developer studio Sacnoth, founded by former Squaresoft composer Hiroki Kikuta released Koudelka for the Sony PlayStation, a strange and unexpected hybrid of Survival Horror, Immersive Sim and classic JRPG gameplay. It was a title whose development cycle saw a lot of turbulence and its unconventional genre-blend was not well received by the gaming press at the time. But Koudelka is a forgotten gem that has so much more to offer than it seems at first glance. A refreshingly small and personal story for a JRPG in an unspent setting in early 20th century rural Wales realized with surprisingly good character, motion and voice acting for its time that’s still engaging to play – and ultimately ignited one of the most beloved series in JRPG history: Shadow Hearts.

MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: CRYOSTASIS - SLEEP OF REASON
The Ukrainian Psychological Horror First Person Shooter Cryostasis is an overlooked gem of mid-2000s shooter design, with still-up-to-this-day technically impressive visual and technical design and a setting unlike any other in an action-heavy narrative game. The game takes place on an icebound ARKTIKA class nuclear icebreaker, stuck in the north pole and it is your role to piece together the story of what went down on the unlucky ship by traveling into the deceased crew members’ memories and witnessing the events unfold from their eyes.
It’s a game that deserves to be preserved, which is hard these days due to its technical limitations and difficult availability due to non-arbitrable legal differences between the developer Action Forms and their publisher 1C Company.
ADDENDUM - IF YOU WANT TO GET CRYOSTASIS
In the video, I say that the easiest way to get access to Cryostasis on Steam is Key Resellers, and that is true, however, please note that the game is also considered Abandonware and is available on Abandonware sites for download. Which is legally grey, so proceed at your own risk.

Fatal Frame III: The Tormented is a highly overlooked gem and my personal favorite entry in the entire series. In this video I’m going to try to pin down why I believe this one is the secretly genius masterstroke of the PS2-era trilogy and how it manages to lift its predecessors even higher and combine them to an inseparable unity of survival horror games.

#MajorasMask #Zelda #MajorasMaskReview
When Majora's Mask was released for the N64 in 2000, it wasn't critically as highly regarded as its predecessor Ocarina of Time by the press, but over time the game's gentle humanistic message, anchored in brilliant time-looping gameplay, turned into a timeless cult-classic, because it embraced things off the beaten Zelda path and delivered a truly heartwarming message.
In this last, special episode of Monsters of the Week for the year, we'll end the year 2020 for this channel on a kind note with The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

THE CHARITY STREAM WAS A GREAT SUCCESS!
Massive thanks to everyone who attended and supported the Charity stream!
I kicked it off with an initial donation of $184.84 and we managed to multiply that amount over 6 times and surpassed the donation goal of $1,000 by collecting a total of $1,128 over the course of 6 hours for the Red Panda Network. This was fun and meaningful, thank you so much!
(Also Control was a really great game!)

*****
Kain is one of the earliest and most prolific morally dark-grey anti-hero protagonists in video game history.
And what a legacy he left: One of the most iconic and epic series in video game history, including Soul Reaver and Defience that Blood Omen layed the fundamental groundwork for.
The title of this video is a folie-a-deux, because Kain's Origin story is both, a gothic horror tragedy worthy of Homer (The ancient Greek one), as well as plagued by a troublesome and tragic development history.
Let's take a nostalgia trip to where it all began: At the good old Pillars of Nosgoth!

The first Fatal Frame was already a phenomenal survival horror game, but its sequel Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly is one of those examples where the successor surpasses the original in pretty much every regard.

From Software entered its golden age with Dark Souls, or some even say with Demon's Souls before that, but many years before that, they released a true classic survival horror gem that has been strongly overshadowed by Shinji Mikami's game changer Resident Evil 4 at the time: Kuon.
This game is in many ways the epitome of old-school survival horror design and gets often overlooked -- which is why we're going to unearth this wonderful PS2 classic set in Edo Japan.

The 2020 remake of Resident Evil 3 is an excellent game that I highly enjoyed, start to finish, and without cutting into this great experience, feel weirdly let down by at the same time. This video is an exploration why those two contradictory feelings can peacefully coexist inside you with this game. Because it was always meant to stand between multiple chairs at once.

CHARITY STREAM
The Resident Evil 7 Charity Stream I mention at the end was a massive success, thanks to everyone who joined, hung out and donated. This was phenomenal.
tiltify.com/@ragnarrox/ragnarrox-resident-evil-7-charity-stream-for-msf
We started the fundraiser with an initial pledge of $250 with the goal to double it,
and after a full 9 hours of streaming with SulMatul, Michael Saba and CaseyExplosion hanging out for most of the stream,
we ended up raising more than 7 times that -- at $1,756 raised for Doctors Without Borders.
Thank you, this was amazing!

Before FromSoftware entered their golden Age with their highly influential lineup of Action RPGs Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, they’ve been around for a while. In this video, we’re going to dig up a genuine black sheep of their early PS1 days, an experimental aberration of their otherwise more action-oriented lineup, Echo Night is an unabashedly Japanese take on the western adventure game. A chilling mystery/horror puzzler that displays many of the hallmarks that FromSoftware’s famously cryptic, asymmetric and shrouded-in-mystery type of storytelling, raw and uncut.

Slug Girl is one of Junji Ito’s most iconic manga shorts, even though it’s never officially been released in the west. In this video, we’re exploring why, beyond the grotesque and appalling imagery of Yuuko with the slug crawling out of her mouth, it managed to resonate with so many readers.
And how it makes Ito the modern day manga-Kafka.

Fatal Frame, especially the original trilogy, is a series of masterfully crafted, groundbreaking Japanese survival horror titles. In this video, we're uncovering how the original Fatal Frame pushed the still fresh genre into a completely new direction with its unique blend of folklore, J-Horror and a gameplay-design that goes hand in hand with the game's message; and turns the players into active participants in Japan's folklore.

In this series, we're delving into video game oblivion.
Titles that have, at some point, fallen into obscurity.
Today, we're talking about Orion Burger (1996) - one of two adventure games released by the Canadian developer Sanctuary Woods, before they closed doors due to disappointing sales figures.
Orion Burger is a love letter to classic cartoon shows and witty and cynical science fiction alla Douglas Adams, realized as a point and click adventure that doesn't need to hide from its contemporary Broken Swords and Day of the Tentacles.

In this series, we're delving into video game oblivion.
Titles that have, at some point, fallen into obscurity.
Today, we're talking about Blood, Monolith Production's horror shooter and my personal favorite Build-Engine game to date.
For this video, I've invited Nick Newhard, creator, lead designer and programmer of Blood to share developer insights from the time Blood was being made.

Titles that have, at some point, fallen into obscurity.
Today, we're talking about Superhero League of Hoboken, a goofy and completely ridiculous adventure-RPG hybrid by Legend Entertainment, written and designed by Steve Meretzky in 1995. You know, the guy who made The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy text adventure for Infocom together with Douglas Adams in 1994.

Satoshi Kon’s 1997 psychological horror movie Perfect Blue is a masterpiece -- and its strange horror has become something that nobody could have forseen 20 years ago.
This is a deep-dive into Satoshi Kon’s dark mirror on Japanese idol culture and the role of the Otaku -- and how it evolved from an extreme social outlier into a cultivable brand identity for the masses.

In this series, we're delving into video game oblivion.
Titles that have, at some point, fallen into obscurity.
Today, we're talking about Dune (1992, Cryo Interactive) - a very unconventional mix of strategy and adventure gameplay for MS-DOS, Amiga and Sega Mega CD based on Frank Herbert's Dune. It's the most faithful video game adaptation of the source material and, to me, one of the most fascinating adaptations of Dune ever made.

This video explores the plague; how pandemic outbreaks birthed the monsters and demons of our myths and legends, and how its impact is still prevalent in our everyday consumption of modern pop culture.
On fatal diseases, dragons, vampires, zombies and somehow I managed to squeeze Albert Camus into this again.
