Why The Last of Us Opening is so Powerful Monty Zander 2022-09-16 | I don't know, but there's something uncomfortable about making disabled gamers pay $70 for accessibility features that let them play a nine-year-old game. It's pretty too I guess.But anyway let's talk about why the first ten minutes were so powerful back in the day, and still are in a 2022 playthrough.SOCIAL MEDIAPatreon: patreon.com/montyzanderTwitter: twitter.com/MontyZanderTHUMBNAIL BY ZOLTIBOI - Show him some love!twitter.com/zoltiboiHOW SIFU'S OPENING SETS EXPECTATIONSyoutube.com/watch?v=ITRWk_dwFOI&t=4s&ab_channel=MontyZanderHOW SPEC OPS: THE LINE'S OPENING MANIPULATES YOUyoutube.com/watch?v=JPm7tKvILrE&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmSMPieOqpk_O-Yldfwa2RAl&index=15HOW RESIDENT EVIL'S OPENING MAKES YOU FEEL NAKEDyoutube.com/watch?v=qG7qMM2cFGI&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmSMPieOqpk_O-Yldfwa2RAl&index=8MUSIC1) Assaf Ayalon - Lullaby2) The Last of Us - Choices3) The Last of Us - Main ThemeMOTION GRAPHIC BY: https://www.instagram.com/icarotkd/?h...Find him on Twitter here: @icarogabriel17#thelastofus #thelastofuspart1

Hellblade: Senuas Sacrifice Critique - Fear Unmasked Monty Zander 2024-09-17 | Check out Manta Sleep here - tinyurl.com/4w6k4c6s and make sure to use MONTYZANDER for 10% off your order!Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is - on the surface – incredibly simple and finds power in that simplicity. But its journey is layered, nuanced, and intimate. When it released in 2017 it was hailed as a technical marvel, but even a cursory look at some of the behind-the-scenes footage its developer – Ninja Theory – released shows a game that’s so much more than its graphics. So let's talk about it.Twitter: https://x.com/MontyZanderPatreon: patreon.com/montyzanderLore Dump: @LoreDump Thumbnail by: Zoltiboi - https://x.com/zoltiboiValravyn Art by: @SamanthaSaunderz *ALAN WAKE 2 CRITIQUE - BEYOND THE LAKE*youtu.be/YtpmAwSTJeo*ALAN WAKE CRITIQUE - BEYOND INSPIRATION*youtu.be/p7WasN_BNfU*BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT CRITIQUE - LEGACY OF THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=rruHbLSDTRo&t=3640s&ab_channel=MontyZander*GOTHAM KNIGHTS CRITIQUE - SHADOW OF THE BAT*youtu.be/hfM8HZ6IaHA*BATMAN: ARKHAM ORIGINS CRITIQUE - VENGEANCE OF THE BAT* youtu.be/9RYwQpZ1tac*BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY CRITIQUE - BREAKING THE BAT*youtu.be/8aiK00lFVsI*BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM CRITIQUE - FINDING THE BAT*youtu.be/WDlY2RP3R3AThe Old Hellblade Critique: youtu.be/BHYnUP_6t6gTIMESTAMPS00:00:00 - Introduction00:02:56 - Part 1: The Painted People00:14:35 - Part 2: Warrior of the Wilds00:27:17 - Part 3: Trick of the Mind00:39:58 - Part 4: The Trials of Odin00:52:53 - Part 5: The Horrors of Hel01:02:36 - Part 6: The Land of Mist and Fog01:15:21 - Part 7: Fear UnmaskedMUSICINTROAngel Salazar - Scotland MountainsPART 1HillTopTrio - Whole Heap of Little Horses - Instrumental VersionKyle Preston - Inn of the FermentedPART 2Israel Wasserman - Just a Dream - Instrumental VersionPART 3Sun Tailor - It Goes On - No Lead VocalsPART 4Aleksey Chistilin - Overcoming the ImpossibleDaniel Robinson - The IslesPART 5Pablo Suarez - ShiverHellblade Soundtrack - The TowerHellblade Soundtrack - The Sea of CorpsesPART 6Lance Conrad - Waiting and HopingPART 7Tadhg Daly - Losing StreakThe Hunts - YearsREFERENCES1) Ninja Theory - Behind the Theory - Episode 1: youtube.com/watch?v=hYe0cTnwJhs&t=560s2) ItsPinkie - ASMR for Big D*ck Men: youtube.com/watch?v=KniThJPqTXk&t=455s3) Cracked - ASMR Youtube Videos (Sorens Creepy Fetish): youtube.com/watch?v=5_45TGmO3ms&t=212s4) Michael Lynch - The Northern Earldoms5) Alfred Smyth - Warlords and Holy Men: Scotland 80-1000AD6) Bafta Guru - Melina Jurgens on Motion Capture and Acting in Games:7) Ninja Theory - Combat Review Meeting: youtube.com/watch?v=ovov5djvEdc&t=210s8) Ninja Theory - Development Diary 6: Combat, Controls and Camera: youtube.com/watch?v=fFKjWciYbBM&list=PLbpkF8TRYizaT6GfMcKBG-RoUOQ6BJRXp&index=69) The Verge - Hellblade is a Harrowing, Frustrating Descent into Madness: theverge.com/2017/8/9/16117978/hellblade-senuas-sacrifice-review-ps4-pc10) Smithsonian Magazine - The Vengeance of Ivarr the Boneless: smithsonianmag.com/history/the-vengeance-of-ivarr-the-boneless-400265411) Ninja Theory - Development Diary 9: Sound and Music: youtube.com/watch?v=kSkbpxaE21c&list=PLbpkF8TRYizaT6GfMcKBG-RoUOQ6BJRXp&index=912) Ninja Theory - Development Diary 7: Creating the World: youtube.com/watch?v=fFKjWciYbBM&list=PLbpkF8TRYizaT6GfMcKBG-RoUOQ6BJRXp&index=613) Ninja Theory - Development Diary 3: Creating Senua: youtube.com/watch?v=PojGyYP5AB0&list=PLbpkF8TRYizaT6GfMcKBG-RoUOQ6BJRXp&index=314) Tim Clarkson - The Picts: A History15) Much of the development history was pulled from the full series of diaries Ninja Theory released, so here's a link to the full playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbpkF8TRYizaT6GfMcKBG-RoUOQ6BJRXp

Alan Wake Critique - Beyond Inspiration Monty Zander 2024-04-15 | Alan Wake is a game that pulls heavily from numerous vibes. Stephen King, In The Mouth of Madness, the Twilight Zone, and Twin Peaks, all chiming out a tune that’s both colourful and monochrome. I loved it back when I played it at launch, I loved it when I bought the remastered edition, and I love it still after wading around in its fiction.So let's talk about it and its greatest inspirations.This is a remaster of an old critique with new footage, audio, editing, and a reworked script.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Critique - Dead Weight Monty Zander 2024-04-02 | Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a game nobody asked for, made in a way nobody wanted. It's cynical, it's boring, and it's disrespectful to its characters and players. Almost every single problem it has - from the empty story to the sludge it calls gameplay - can be blamed on the fact it’s carrying this live-service dead weight on its back.It should be the killing blow for a kind of game we should have buried years ago, but it looks like it's just the latest attempt in an industry determined to eat itself.*LORE DUMP*youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZr3eT3KY&t=3287s&ab_channel=LoreDumpThumbnail by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*MERCH*monty-zander.myspreadshop.co.uk/noobus+humanus?collection=qRRSshxeWA*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - A 'Brief' History of Live Service Games00:07:42 - Introduction00:10:39 - Part 1: Casualties of Tone00:22:27 - Part 2: A Diluted Justice League00:35:51 - Part 3: Muting Metropolis00:53:51 - Part 4: Kill the Riddler01:04:09 - Part 5: Grapples and Gizmos01:17:08 - Part 6: Flashy and Feeble01:42:38 - Part 7: Mosquito Design02:05:21 - Part 8: Enter Batman02:23:18 - Part 9: Super Side Missions02:37:00 - Part 10: How to Lose Friends and Alienate Players02:55:00 - Part 11: Send in the Clown*BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT CRITIQUE - LEGACY OF THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=rruHbLSDTRo&t=3640s&ab_channel=MontyZander*GOTHAM KNIGHTS CRITIQUE - SHADOW OF THE BAT*youtu.be/hfM8HZ6IaHA*BATMAN: ARKHAM ORIGINS CRITIQUE - VENGEANCE OF THE BAT* youtu.be/9RYwQpZ1tac*BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY CRITIQUE - BREAKING THE BAT*youtu.be/8aiK00lFVsI*BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM CRITIQUE - FINDING THE BAT*youtu.be/WDlY2RP3R3A*FOOTAGE/REFERENCES*Usually I list them in my description but I ran out of characters.

Its atmosphere is let down by its insistence that the player trudge through it, rather than eagerly explore. It's a 2 hour game that somehow manages to stretch its length out to 5 because of its painstaking slowness, and that slowness doesn't breed tension, it just breeds boredom.And all of these problems are crystallised by the time its first ten minutes are up.LORE DUMP - BIOSHOCK EXPLAINEDyoutube.com/watch?v=OD19pSLdDmo&t=960sTWITTERtwitter.com/MontyZanderPATREONpatreon.com/montyzanderI MADE MY WIFE PLAY OUTER WILDSyoutube.com/watch?v=ed1t4X7brGg&t=846sSOMA CRITIQUE - ANATOMY OF THE SOULyoutube.com/watch?v=LQCbRIqDOig&t=2411sThumbnail by the amazing Zoltiboi!twitter.com/zoltiboiFOOTAGE/REFERENCES1) Feardemic - Fort Solis - Interview with Developer: youtube.com/watch?v=sf50GjgnKrg&t=2s2) IGN - Fort Solis Explained - youtube.com/watch?v=ZdNCoxjymw0&t=1s3) SummerGameFest - Fort Solis Interview with Troy Baker and Roger Clarke - youtube.com/watch?v=InXjIKK6iLI&t=148s4) GamesRadar - Fort Solis: How an indie studio fulfilled its plan to deliver a TV-quality Sci-Fi Thriller: gamesradar.com/fort-solis-how-an-indie-studio-fulfilled-its-plan-to-deliver-a-tv-quality-sci-fi-thriller5) GamingBolt - Fort Solis Interview: gamingbolt.com/fort-solis-interview-story-characters-exploration-and-moreMUSIC (IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE)1) Ran Raiten - Orange Sunsets2) Control: Foundation DLC - Red Glow Tunel Rush3) Dear Gravity - Empyrean#fortsolis

SOMA Critique - Anatomy of the Soul Monty Zander 2023-09-12 | SOMA splits the atom of the soul, dissects it, and scatters its questions into the ocean for us to gobble up like guppies.

It’s targeted, specific, and conditions the player to internalise its horror and carry it with them after the credits roll.*LORE DUMP*youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZr3eT3KY&t=3287s&ab_channel=LoreDumpThumbnail by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*MERCH*monty-zander.myspreadshop.co.uk/noobus+humanus?collection=qRRSshxeWA*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - Introduction00:03:46 - Part 1: Conditioning Fear00:20:10 - Interlude: Carl Semken00:28:42 - Part 2: Feast Your Eyes00:45:15 - Interlude: Robin Bass00:53:47 - Part 3: Taking the World Seriously01:06:28 - Interlude: Brandon Wan01:15:39 - Part 4: What If01:28:30 - Interlude: Simon-201:37:00 - Part 5: The Abyss01:48:42 - Interlude: The WAU01:56:45 - Part 6: Eternity Among the Stars*ALAN WAKE CRITIQUE - BEYOND INSPIRATION*youtube.com/watch?v=p7WasN_BNfU&t=6093s*BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT CRITIQUE - LEGACY OF THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=rruHbLSDTRo&t=3640s&ab_channel=MontyZander*FOOTAGE/READING LIST*1 - Leonardo Da Vinci - Drawings & Anatomical Studies2 - Joseph Anderson - A Critique of SOMA3 - 80lvl - Frictional Games on Its History & Developing Horror Games4 - Engadget - SOMA nearly wasn't a horror game and other secrets from Ian Thomas5 - CG Magazine - Why SOMA could have been better without its enemies6 - Smithsonian Magazine - Dogs may be more self-aware than experts thought7 - Thomas Grip - The Five Foundational Pillar's of SOMA's Design Philosophy8 - MrBtongue - The Shandification of Fallout9 - Warner Wirth et al - A Process Model of the Formation of Spatial Presence Experiences10 - John Green - What does it mean to be Human?11 - Bill Gates - What does it mean to be Human?12 - SOMA - Recording Water Sounds13 - Anil Seth - Being You: A New Science of Consciousness14 - John Locke - An Essay Concerning Human Understanding15 - GameReactor - SOMA: Aaron Clifford Interview16 - Jason's Video Game Source - SOMA - Upsilon Shuttle Station: Amy "It Won't Let Me Die" Dialogue Power On Shuttle Station Gameplay17 - NI Science Festival - Anil Seth presents Being You18 - Brainspotting (2000) - Derek Parfit on Personal Identity19 - Samuel Justice - SOMA: Behind the Sound20 - The Escapist - SOMA (Zero Punctuation)21 - Visa Kurki - A Theory of Legal Personhood22 - Dr Sam Parnia - Does consciousness continue after our brain dies?23 - Adrien Owen - Search for Consciousness24 - New Zealand's Human River - Whanganui has been granted Legal Status25 - The Boxer and the Goalkeeper - Andy Martin26 - Straw Animals - John Gray27 - A Brief History of the Soul - Stewart Goetz & Charles Taliaferro28 - I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream - Harlan Ellison29 - Treatise on Human Nature - David Hume30 - Soul Machine - George Makari31 - Carl Jung - Aion*MUSIC (in order of use)*-Licenced by Artlist-1 - Yehezkel Raz - Shallow Water2 - SOMA Soundtrack - End Credits3 - Yehezkel Raz - After You Came4 - Yehezkel Raz - Tiding5 - Adi Goldstein - Shifting Memories6 - Yehezkel Raz - Finding My Memories (Instrumental)7 - Stanley Gurvich - Neural Purge8 - Raz Burg - Star Surfing9 - Muted - Staring10 - Eleven Tales - Slow Tides11 - DJ Taz Rashid - Twilight12 - Ty Simon - Deep Dive13 - Jameson Nathan Jones - Time Will Wait for Me14 - Adi Goldstein - Ocean Voyage15 - MARLOE. - Recognise

Gotham Knights Critique - Shadow of the Bat Monty Zander 2023-06-23 | I don’t like Gotham Knights.It’s a brittle, hollow shell, made cynically, written farcically, engineered poorly, and designed not with FUN in mind, but an always-turning grindstone labeled “Player Engagement.” It’s borderline irredeemable.

Arkham Knight Critique - Legacy of the Bat Monty Zander 2023-05-20 | Batman: Arkham Knight is about Legacy.Rocksteady ripped out every system, re-examined every set-piece, redesigned the combat, the stealth, the gadgets, to give them a new lease of life in an open world that is proudly designed to be played, not wander through. The feeling of playing Arkham Knight is very different from the feeling of playing Asylum, City, or Origins.And that’s not just because of the batmobile.So let's look at Batman's legend, and the legacy of the game that said goodbye to him.*LORE DUMP*youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZr3eT3KY&t=3287s&ab_channel=LoreDumpThumbnail by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - Introduction00:05:36 - Life is Just Death's Opening Act00:22:29 - i00:25:15 - Evening the Odds00:41:17 - ii00:43:51 - A High-Tech Hero00:57:05 - iii00:59:04 - Gallery of Rogues01:24:32 - iv01:26:37 - Theatricality and Deception01:38:40 - v01:41:27 - A Matter of Family01:52:32 - vi01:53:35 - Arkham World02:08:11 - vii02:10:08 - Joker02:24:53 - viii02:28:00 - Race Car Riddler02:41:02 - ix02:44:42 - Beatdown02:54:07 - x02:56:56 - The Arkham Knight03:08:54 - xi03:11:54 - I Am Batman*SUICIDE SQUAD: KILL THE JUSTICE LEAGUE CRITIQUE - DEAD WEIGHT*youtu.be/TcRP_8UwRrg*BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY CRITIQUE - BREAKING THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=8aiK00lFVsI&t=3605s&ab_channel=MontyZander*BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM CRITIQUE - FINDING THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=WDlY2RP3R3A&t=6094s&ab_channel=MontyZander*GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY CRITIQUE - ROCK'N'ROLLERCOASTER*youtube.com/watch?v=K_876yuApX8&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=7&ab_channel=MontyZander*FOOTAGE/REFERENCES*1 - Angry Joe - Arkham Knight Angry Review (Spoilers)2 - Godzilla Mendoza - Arkham Knight's Disappointing Gameplay3 - MinnMax - Chat with Dax Ginn, Producer of Arkham Knight - Floor Report E3 20144 - Red Carpet News TV - Kevin Conroy Picks His Favourite Batman Video Game5 - Travis Langley - Batman and Psychology: A Dark and Stormy Knight6 - Unleash the Enemy - Sefton Hill: "We're Putting Everything into Arkham Knight"7 - God is a Geek - Batman: Arkham Knight - An Interview with Gaz Deaves8 - Connected Digital World - Batman Arkham Knight Exclusive Interview with Rocksteady9 - IGN - The Fire Burns Forever: Reflecting on a legendary Batman saga with writer Grant Morrison10 - IGN - The New 52 Interviews: Batgirl11 - Venture Beat - Batman: Arkham Knight - Designing a Proper Gotham City (and what's with the Batmobile?)12 - Screen Rant - Gotham Knights Must Avoid Batman: Arkham Knight's Worst Mistake13 - The Comics Journal Library - Frank Miller: The Interviews - 1981-200314 - Kotaku - A very excited man tells us all about Arkham Knight15 - Gamespot - Rocksteady checks in with the guys about Batman: Arkham Knight - Kinda Funny Stage Show E3 201516 - Game Informer - Why Arkham Knight is Rocksteady's Last17 - NeoGame Archive - Batman: Arkham Knight: The Voices of Arkham18 - Watch Mojo - 10 Weirdest Arkham Knight PC Glitches19 - Playstation Europe - Arkham Knight Interview with Dax Ginn20 - Playstation - Batman Arkham Knight Exclusive Interview with Sefton Hill21 - Holy Batmania (1984 Documentary)22 - Connected Digital World - Batman Arkham Knight Interview with Gaz from Rocksteady23 - The Daily Wire - DC made SUperman gay, climate change activist.

Batman: Arkham Origins Critique - Vengeance of the Bat Monty Zander 2023-04-05 | Batman: Arkham Origins stands on the shoulders of giants. They're not my words, they're the words of its developer - WB Montreal. It's more Batman, Batman with multiplayer, a younger, rawer, hungrier Batman lost in a cloak of vengeance. It has the most interesting character writing in the franchise, some setpieces that are some of Arkham's best, and some really cool ideas. In a vacuum, it's a belter of a video game, but it didn't release in a vacuum. It was pumped out while Warner Bros waited for Rocksteady to finish working on Arkham Knight.But even if that's the case, it returned Batman to our screens with a vengeance. So let's look at it together.*LORE DUMP*youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZr3eT3KY&t=3287s&ab_channel=LoreDump*FOLXLORE*https://pod.link/1495636313?fbclid=IwAR3Cx-wttxRuy3Eb2plumDgtn_P8Sv1VjeNsCNIxtnsJfyeq4Zx4sOrCZ1YThumbnail by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*MERCH*monty-zander.myspreadshop.co.uk/noobus+humanus?collection=qRRSshxeWA*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - Introduction00:05:49 - A Furious Introduction00:22:04 - Investigate/Interrogate00:34:44 - Less is More00:47:12 - Radio Gaga01:02:49 - Most Wanted01:15:27 - Shock and Awesome01:27:32 - Saving Mister J01:37:15 - New Bat, Old Tricks01:45:22 - I Am Vengeance01:53:24 - Cold, Cold Heart*SUICIDE SQUAD: KILL THE JUSTICE LEAGUE CRITIQUE - DEAD WEIGHT*youtu.be/TcRP_8UwRrg*I MADE MY FIANCEE PLAY RESIDENT EVIL*youtube.com/watch?v=zScn6I6WnhU&t=257s&ab_channel=MontyZander*BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY CRITIQUE - BREAKING THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=8aiK00lFVsI&t=3605s&ab_channel=MontyZander*BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM CRITIQUE - FINDING THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=WDlY2RP3R3A&t=6094s&ab_channel=MontyZander*GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY CRITIQUE - ROCK'N'ROLLERCOASTER*youtube.com/watch?v=K_876yuApX8&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=7&ab_channel=MontyZander*QUANTUM BREAK CRITIQUE - BEYOND AMBITION* youtube.com/watch?v=mK7gV2rL7cs&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=6&ab_channel=MontyZander*I MADE MY FIANCEE PLAY HOLLOW KNIGHT*youtu.be/S48hKzu1Ck0*REFERENCES*1 - Toonbarn: SDCC - Eric Holmes talks about Arkham Origins Video Game - youtube.com/watch?v=u06jKIIQSKM&ab_channel=ToonBarn2 - Gamereactor: Arkham Origins - Senior Producer Interview - youtube.com/watch?v=g7uLMkgwOTs3 - Arkham Origins Artbook4 - Travis Langley: Batman and Psychology - A Dark and Stormy Knight5 - Ausgamers: E3 2013 - Batman: Arkham Origins Developer Interview6 - Gaming Bolt: Batman: Arkham Origins Interview - gamingbolt.com/batman-arkham-origins-interview-skipping-ps4xbox-one-story-set-up-expanded-detective-mode-and-more7 - Playstation Access: Batman: Arkham Origins Interview - youtube.com/watch?v=4B0mJyOwyX0&t=175s&ab_channel=PlayStationAccess8 - SuperheroHype: Exclusive Interview with Roger Craig Smith, the voice of Batman in Arkham Origins - superherohype.com/features/179235-exclusive-interview-with-roger-craig-smith-the-voice-of-batman-in-arkham-origins9 - OutsideXbox: Batman and Joker - Arkham Origins voice actors interview with Troy Baker and Roger Craig Smith - youtube.com/watch?v=AjcCr1hRnvE&t=2s&ab_channel=outsidexbox10 - ScreenRant - Batman is DC's least impactful hero, and DC just proved why - screenrant.com/batman-ras-al-ghul-criticism-focused-past11 - Los Angeles Times: The Joker creator Jerry Robinson - youtube.com/watch?v=DNtlds8wf3g&t=101s&ab_channel=LosAngelesTimes12 - Batman: Year Two Anniversary Edition - Introduction by Mike Barr13 - NextGenBase: Batman Arkham Origins Interview - nextgenbase.com/batman-arkham-origins-developer-interview14 - DenOfGeek: Batman Arkham origins Gameplay Demo and Interview - denofgeek.com/games/batman-arkham-origins-gameplay-demo-and-interview15 - GameReactor: Batman Arkham origins Creative Director Interview - youtube.com/watch?v=4Ea5nd-cvoE&ab_channel=Gamereactor16 - MoviesGamesandTech: Interview with Ben Mattes Arkham origins Producer - moviesgamesandtech.com/2013/10/06/exclusive-batman-arkham-origins-interview-ben-mattes17 - GamerHubTV: Batman Arkham Origins Preview Interview With Producer Ben Mattes - youtube.com/watch?v=qMzkngpkl1M&ab_channel=GamerHubTV*MUSIC (in order of use)*All music used is licensed by Artlist.1 - Yehezkel Raz - Four on Five2 - Lance Conrad - Forever Yours3 - Yonatan Riklis - Melancholia4 - Yehezkel Raz - Sad Snow5 - Simon Osterhold - Stormy Clouds6 - Nsee - Frozen Lake7 - Nobou - Silent Dreams8 - Laurel Violet - Afterwards9 - Dear Gravity - Generations10 - We Dream of Eden - Domus11 - Tamir D.

Batman: Arkham City Critique - Breaking the Bat Monty Zander 2023-02-26 | Batman: Arkham City is a tragedy. But if that's the case, why is it so much fun? Rocksteady didn’t strike gold by accident when they made Arkham Asylum. They mined deep and hard into the history of the Bat to unearth everything that makes him powerful and captivating, and they carried that ethic into the creation of Arkham City. They didn't coast on the acclaim of the first game. If Asylum’s Batman is the mould, City takes every opportunity to break it.So let's look back on my favourite Arkham game!*LORE DUMP*youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZr3eT3KY&t=3287s&ab_channel=LoreDumpThumbnail by by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY ENDGAME - MOTION COMIC*Arkham City: Endgame - Motion Comic - Nicolas Cortez: youtube.com/watch?*MERCH*monty-zander.myspreadshop.co.uk/noobus+humanus?collection=qRRSshxeWA*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - Introduction00:04:32 - A Grand Opening00:17:01 - Riddler 2.000:29:00 - Inspector Gadget00:40:16 - Substance Over Scale?01:03:18 - The Demon and the Detective01:12:44 - The Combat Racetrack01:26:31 - Predator and Prey01:36:56 - Enter Catwoman01:48:00 - The Killing Joke02:01:36 - Harley Quinn's Revenge*I MADE MY FIANCEE PLAY RESIDENT EVIL*youtube.com/watch?v=zScn6I6WnhU&t=257s&ab_channel=MontyZander*BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM CRITIQUE - FINDING THE BAT*youtube.com/watch?v=WDlY2RP3R3A&t=6094s&ab_channel=MontyZander*GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY CRITIQUE - ROCK'N'ROLLERCOASTER*youtube.com/watch?v=K_876yuApX8&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=7&ab_channel=MontyZander*QUANTUM BREAK CRITIQUE - BEYOND AMBITION* youtube.com/watch?v=mK7gV2rL7cs&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=6&ab_channel=MontyZander*I MADE MY FIANCEE PLAY HOLLOW KNIGHT*youtu.be/S48hKzu1Ck0*MUSIC*All music used is licensed by Artlist.1 - Rob Cawley - Silent Theatre2 - Nobou - A New Dawn3 - SPEARFISHER - Blood Meridian4 - Yehezkal Raz - Emerald5 - The David Roy Collective - The Old House6 - Emanuele Errante - Altered Communication7 - Tamuz Deckel - A Speck in Time8 - Risian - Oud of this World9 - Nobou - Autumn Mist10 - Nobou - Particles11 - Nobou - Eyes Closed12 - Michael Vignola - Too Much13 - Nobou - Sophisticated Nostalgia*FOOTAGE/REFERENCES*1 - Batman: Arkham City Comic - Paul Dini2 - Batman: Arkham City: Endgame Comic - Paul Dini3 - Arkham City: Endgame - Motion Comic - Nicolas Cortez: youtube.com/watch?v=L2_IcBMbsBU&ab_channel=NicholasCortez4 - Game Interview - Batman: Arkham City Interview with Dax Ginn - youtube.com/watch?v=SfQReH9u3cg&t=148s&ab_channel=GameSpot5 - Batman Dax Ginn Interview - Part 1 - CVG - youtube.com/watch?v=kbUreHlKo1M&t=3s&ab_channel=CVG6 - (Arkham City) Sefton Hill DICE 2012 - youtube.com/watch?v=gSgtV9mEISQ&t=563s&ab_channel=GameSpot7 - Zack Snyder - Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice - Exclusive Interview - HeyUGuys - youtube.com/watch?v=h0ZD6Wmu2L8&t=34s&ab_channel=HeyUGuys8 - Buy Batman used at Gamestop, get a Catwoman Code - engadget.com/2011-10-15-buy-batman-used-at-gamestop-get-free-catwoman-code.html9 - Why used games are such big business - New Yorker - newyorker.com/business/currency/why-used-video-games-are-such-a-big-business10 - Batman: Arkham City Panel Comic Con 2011 - Gamespot -youtube.com/watch?v=4p1pmewlu-g&ab_channel=GameSpot11 - Behind the Scenes - Batman: Arkham City [Making Of] Neogamer Archive - youtube.com/watch?v=pnyx7dkJug4&ab_channel=NeoGamer-TheVideoGameArchive12 - Voice Talent - Batman: Arkham City Behind the Scenes - Gamespot - youtube.com/watch?v=PnkcZF34SE0&ab_channel=GameSpot13 - Batman: Arkham City - Video Interview - youtube.com/watch?v=0suov9RJJc0&t=125s&ab_channel=IGN14 - Batman: Arkham City E3 2011 Interview - Gamespot - youtube.com/watch?v=39iUhFAbA6M&ab_channel=GameSpot15 - Batman: Arkham City Interview - The Sixth Axis - youtube.com/watch?v=FyNvrCGPuj8&ab_channel=TheSixthAxis16 - Batman: Arkham City and the art of narrative game design - theguardian.com/technology/gamesblog/2011/may/18/batman-arkham-city-interview17 - The Man Behind The Cowl - Arkham City Interview - blog.playstation.com/2011/08/19/the-man-behind-the-cowl-arkham-city-interview

But out of Arkham Asylum’s darkness was born a Bat with love, craft, care, and colour injected into his veins and the hearts of his enemies. A pulpy, full-throttle swing into madness where – on repeat playthroughs – you can trace the lines of code Rocksteady lay to find their Batman and give his world a voice.So let's talk about Arkham Asylum and its inspirations to see how Rocksteady found their Batman, and let us find him right alongside them.Thumbnail by Zoltiboitwitter.com/zoltiboi*MERCH*monty-zander.myspreadshop.co.uk/noobus+humanus?collection=qRRSshxeWA*TWITTER*twitter.com/MontyZander*PATREON*patreon.com/montyzander*TIMESTAMPS*00:00:00 - Introduction00:05:32 - A Living Comic Book00:21:24 - i00:25:07 - Riddle Me This00:36:47 - ii00:41:17 - Bam.

The Evil Within Critique - Horror with Heart Monty Zander 2022-10-18 | Visit bestgameprice.net to save money on PC games for free!Shinji Mikami’s return to horror was awaited with bated breath. The Evil Within’s announcement felt like a direct response to the gloopy mixture the genre had melted into, but if you plugged it into a heart monitor, what you'd see is a steady thrum with a couple of thrilling spikes in tension that ultimately falls off and wears itself out. But there’s still a lot of heart in here.

Bioshock 2 Critique | After the Kool-Aid Monty Zander 2022-07-24 | Visit bestgameprice.net to compare deals for free and save money on PC games!This video is also brought to you by the fact I say “Irrational Games” multiple times in this video when I should say “2K Marin.” I’m never writing three videos at the same time ever again.It's also brought to you by this statement on The Selfish Gene - because god dammit shut up I am begging you to read more than the cliffnotes of Dawkins before thinking you're an expert:twitter.com/MontyZander/status/1590785075011981312A critique of Bioshock 2. Where Bioshock 1 lampoons Ayn Rand’s objectivism, Bioshock 2 is inspired by Jim Jones, The People’s Temple, and Collectivism. The game is hyperfocussed on flipping the original Bioshock on its head and looking at the underbelly of the philosophies that crystallised it.So let's return to Rapture and ask what happens after a group warped by hyper-capitalism finds a new philosophy. What happens after they drink the Kool-Aid?BIOSHOCK CRITIQUE | AFTER THE SHRUGyoutube.com/watch?v=w0w87LVe0wU&t=1682s&ab_channel=MontyZanderSOCIAL MEDIATwitter: www.twitter.com/MontyZanderPatreon: www.patreon.com/MontyZanderGUEST SPEAKERS - subscribe to these guys!@GamingUniversityUoG - youtube.com/watch?v=79pFpAyGw2I&list=PLpxGcAs6OTOTh_fG3BOb4hkZgwV-lPRwq&ab_channel=GamingUniversity@ZeroCiero - youtube.com/channel/UC0JB_f947fNNBaDM7NE5gFg@Zoltiboi - youtube.com/watch?v=2BE6jA57OSE&t=818s&ab_channel=ZoltiboiTHUMBNAIL BY ZOLTIBOItwitter.com/zoltiboiTIMESTAMPS0:00:00 - Introduction0:04:35 - Rapture Reborn0:17:45 - Hack Shack0:26:54 - Levelling Down0:41:48 - Drilling Into Combat0:54:21 - The Temple of the Bland01:05:19 - Someone Forgot to Finish Dionysus Park01:19:45 - The Capitalist Collectivist01:31:43 - Minerva's Den01:40:13 - Prisoner of ChoiceFOOTAGE/REFERENCES USED1 - Bioshock 2 - Jordan Thomas Interview | Gamespot - youtube.com/watch?v=7V2KycaetDk&t=182s&ab_channel=TheSdbr2 - Bioshock 2 Interview: Hacking | Gamespot - youtube.com/watch?v=mRZB4ZkHtRI&ab_channel=GameSpot3 - Jonestown Mass Suicide: Revisiting The Cult That Ended With The Deaths Of 900 | TODAY - youtube.com/watch?v=1zI9ub9AgF0&ab_channel=TODAY4 - Jonestown Part 1: Who was the Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones? | ABC - youtube.com/watch?v=_0B1sMfxWYw&t=314s&ab_channel=ABCNews5 - Slavery of Faith | Leslie Wagner-Wilson - wob.com/en-gb/books/leslie-wagner-wilson/slavery-of-faith/9780595512935?gclid=Cj0KCQjwuO6WBhDLARIsAIdeyDLOKzNdEI0hs8g8wdpmENsLC2u8VCqjQTvK02BtzY4TFRz3MaEa0esaArYnEALw_wcB#GOR0092230166 - Stanley Poole's Death | IGN Guides youtube.com/watch?v=mJIPAEKb06M7 - Bioshock 2 is One of the Boldest Sequels Ever Made | PC Gamer - pcgamer.com/bioshock-2-is-one-of-the-boldest-sequels-ever-made8 - Jordan Peterson Explains That Collectivism Is Tyranny Under the Guise of Benevolence (Part 2 of 7) | The Epoch Times - youtube.com/watch?v=ze7J5FmUGR4&t=2s&ab_channel=TheEpochTimes9 - The Selfish Gene | Richard Dawkins - wob.com/en-gb/books/richard-dawkins-emeritus-fello/selfish-gene/9780198788607?gclid=Cj0KCQjwuO6WBhDLARIsAIdeyDJcmOlInz88UVmbvRq5WGOjlkKvhlrgFf0GUC8hP8yPCoayYGNj2yAaAsAAEALw_wcB#GOR00906999410 - How Sinclair Broadcast Group Violates Its Own Media Rules | NYT - Opinion - youtube.com/watch?v=C-4HOgULcd8&ab_channel=TheNewYorkTimes11 - RMT General Secretary Mick Lynch Quizzed On Whether He's a Marxist Amid Biggest Rail Strike | GMB - youtube.com/watch?v=QB4M4ugvaVg&t=32s&ab_channel=GoodMorningBritainMUSICPiece of that Pie - Burial at Seayoutube.com/watch?v=Atjgu7qMoUA&ab_channel=JamesFord- All other music used was licenced by Artliist - 1: Falconer - Who Goes There?2: Tony Petersen - 3 O'Clock Blues3: Tony Petersen - Easy Morning4: Ikoliks - The Western Wind5: Mark Grundhoefer - Washed Away6: Leroy Wild - Monomer7: Leroy Wild - Arkema8: Leroy Wild - Diamine9: Leroy Wild - Crystalline#bioshock2critique #bioshock2analysis

Quantum Break Critique | Beyond Ambition Monty Zander 2022-04-22 | A commentary, critique, and retrospective of Quantum Break - Remedy's black sheep.#quantumbreak #remedy #gamecritiqueQuantum Break was ambitious, and weird, and fascinating, and very little about it works the way Remedy hoped it would. In hindsight, the combat serves as a tech demo for what Control would later refine. Despite the likability factor of Shawn Ashmore, Jack Joyce is a potato of a protagonist. Despite the game’s visuals being slick and cool, and the machinations of its time travel having eons of potential, the sum of its parts undercut it at almost every turn.So that’s what we’re going to look at here. Just like a fracture, we’re going to tear Quantum Break apart to see what’s good, what’s bad, and to ask the question – does Remedy’s techno-thriller go beyond its ambitions?SOCIAL MEDIATwitter: www.twitter.com/MontyZanderPatreon: www.patreon.com/MontyZanderTIMESTAMPS0:00:00 - A quick history lesson0:07:31 - Act 1: Quantum Jack0:23:18 - Intermission: Monarch Solutions0:29:18 - Act 2: Quantum Time0:49:15 - Intermission: Prisoner0:56:12 - Act 3: Quantum Punch1:09:39 - Intermission: Defiance (not that one)1:16:36 - Act 4: Quantum Wake1:35:40 - Intermission: Lifeboat Protocol1:44:19 - Act 5: Quantum MistakeCRITIQUES REFERENCEDControl Critique - Beyond the Weirdyoutube.com/watch?v=e1Lkk0TQIuw&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=4Alan Wake Critique - Beyond Inspirationyoutube.com/watch?v=2bNjkTAhGrc&list=PL-xqWDrbpVmS5TUb_HukqE1t1bu9stxuT&index=6FOOTAGE/REFERENCES USEDNG16: Making of Quantum Break: The Game Is About the Heroes, The Show Is About the Villains - Nordic Gameyoutube.com/watch?v=cyn5URB_2YgThe Role of Music in Remedy's Games - Remedy Entertainmentyoutube.com/watch?v=eW5A49GO_Qw&t=126sSam Lake on Alan Wake 2, Quantum Break and Innovation in Narrative - Polygonyoutube.com/watch?v=AHdzuF-9yKMAlan Wake Let's Play - Materwelonzyoutube.com/watch?v=jtlym50wOckQuantum Break Let's Play - RadBradyoutube.com/watch?v=e_dhFM8zLNk&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo72bK5NJfC19zvTaUTSKHpKDefiance: Angry Joe Interview - AngryJoeShowyoutube.com/watch?v=uule_TmhU7M&t=249sE3 11: Defiance Interview - GameReactoryoutube.com/watch?v=tN7-C_tV9PQ- All music used was licenced by Artliist - #quantumbreak #gamecritique

Guardians of the Galaxy Critique | Rock n Rollercoaster Monty Zander 2021-11-25 | Eidos's Guardians of the Galaxy are my favourite guardians. The galaxy they con their way through is packed with heart and earnestness that makes something as simple as eavesdropping on a conversation between Rocket and Drax the highlight of a play session. The world-building, the aesthetic, the tone, couldn’t be more in-keeping with the vibe of this ramshackle group of lovable criminals.But it’s far from perfect. In fact I’d argue that Guardians of the Galaxy is a good game with great writing.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits - In-Depth Critique Monty Zander 2021-10-19 | Kena: Bridge of Spirits feels like it’s been made just for me. It’s got the collect-a-thon style of a mascot platformer, mixed with the thematic concentration of a Ninja Theory game, and the boss difficulty of a souls-like. Yet somehow, it manages to fuse this all together into an identity all its own. At times the nostalgia feels warm and fuzzy, reminiscent of titles decades old, but more importantly, Ember Lab understands their audience.PATREONpatreon.com/montyzander?fan_landing=trueTWITTERtwitter.com/MontyZanderTIMESTAMPS0:00:00 - Introduction0:04:32 - Princess Mononokena0:20:33 - Kena: Legend of the Gobbos0:41:06 - Kena-Man0:57:30 - The Legend of Kena01:14:19 - Bridge of SpiritsFOOTAGE/REFERENCES USED1 - Tom O'Ragan - Fixing The Master Sword in Breath of the Wild - The Bit: youtube.com/watch?v=C5rBkmTBO3k&t=132s2 - Cyael - Marvels Avengers Game Glitch & Bug Compilation: youtube.com/watch?v=YRJCZIZGgjU&t=173s3 - Kinda Funny: Kena Bridge of Spirits Review - youtube.com/watch?v=TnKWyatGTwY&t=3506s4 - Bellular News: Critics punch down on Kena: Bridge of Spirits: youtube.com/watch?v=PyXTNHy2DX8&t=176s5 - Kotaku: The One Thing In Kena: Bridge Of Spirits That’s A Massive Pain In The A***: https://www.kotaku.com.au/2021/09/kena-bridge-of-spirits-pc-ps5-rot/?_ga=2.165017855.1710872110.1634479365-260349162.16344793656 - Eurogamer: Kena: Bridge of Spirits Review: eurogamer.net/articles/2021-09-20-kena-bridge-of-spirits-review-gorgeous-looking-yet-wholly-unoriginal7 - Life where I'm from - Shintoism: Where Gods Aren't Gods: youtube.com/watch?v=htxVoNBd5do&t=431sMUSIC1 - Kena: Bridge of Spirits OST2 - Princess Mononoke OST3 - Croc: Legend of the Gobbos OST4 - Rayman 2: The Great Escape OST5 - Rayman: Bandland Theme6 - Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess OST

It hinges on the player’s desire to engage with it to its fullest. You can’t pick this game up, put it down, and come back to it a month later. More than any other game I’ve played, it wants you to think about it in-between play sessions, to consider its many interesting characters and the philosophies they practice, to want to eat its central mystery, not just unravel it.It’s not just “A Timeloop Game,” or A Walking Simulator. It’s an Escape Room the size of a City.

Its setting, and how it uses the world-building of previous games to strengthen its theme of cycles absolutely blew my mind, and I’m willing to bet I’m not alone. So, with all this in mind… let’s put this opening to the test. Let’s force a noob, a non-gamer, namely my girlfriend, to sit down and try to tackle Dark Souls 3’s first section, to see if we can answer one question.Noobus Humanus 4: Can my girlfriend make it past Vordt of the Boreal Valley… in Dark Souls 3?I MADE MY FIANCE PLAY APEX LEGENDSyoutu.be/1Zp91KszVk4I MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY DARK SOULSyoutu.be/fSVB1adZgSAI MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY BLOODBORNEyoutu.be/xK8ijtawcwUUPDATE VIDEOyoutu.be/m-uoMXCWc8sI MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY SEKIROyoutu.be/XqtMwzkGDkQI MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY DARK SOULS 2youtu.be/jPxLLWyqmyII MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY DEMON'S SOULSyoutu.be/PXC5dZuuFykI MADE MY GIRLFRIEND PLAY ELDEN RINGyoutube.com/watch?v=dcoTOVlDmXQI MADE MY FIANCEE PLAY APEX LEGENDSyoutu.be/1Zp91KszVk4MUSIC1) Lewis's Theme - What Remains of Edith Finch2) Lewis's Sailing - What Remains of Edith Finch3) Sims 4 - Building Theme4) Sims 4 - Main Theme5) Sims 4 - Character Creation Theme
How Spec Ops: The Lines Opening Manipulates You Monty Zander 2021-08-03 | You could have played something else.PATREON: patreon.com/montyzanderTWITTER: twitter.com/MontyZanderSpec Ops: The Line is dressed in the sand, and sheen, and glitz of an abandoned Dubai, but at its core it’s most interested in asking the player a question. Who is responsible for a war crime? Who should bear the brunt? How much social responsibility can we assign to a soldier who pulls the trigger? Or should we turn our anger towards the decision-makers who conditioned them?It’s the military shooter which ruined military shooters for me – and that’s the most ringing endorsement I can give it. Nothing has compared since. It’s the sort of experience Call of Duty: Modern Warfare wishes it could give its players.But how exactly does it condition a player to see it as just another generic shooter? What does its framework say about its inspirations? Why is its opening so effective?FOOTAGE/REFERENCES USED1 - Combat Psychology, Learning to Kill in the US Military - https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1046&context=graduatetheses2 - Star Marshall - youtube.com/watch?v=2ASY7tGuVaM&list=PLb-4t1-03HEetplwEolXRjBbGWZEYS-jwMUSICSpec Ops: The Line OST (A Mix)MOTION GRAPHIC BY: https://www.instagram.com/icarotkd/?h...Find him on Twitter here: @icarogabriel17

And whilst Control also embraces its inspirations – namely the SCP Foundation and elements of Twin Peaks Season 3 – there’s a lot more Remedy in here than there was in Max Payne or Alan Wake. If Alan Wake went Beyond Inspiration, Control, arguably, goes even further.But for all of the great that’s in here, the game avoids being called a Masterpiece because it doesn’t fully embrace its weirdness in a mechanical sense. At points it sludges through some really trite, and really dull modern game design which holds it back from being a truly unique experience.For a lot of people, I know this was their 2019 Game of the Year, and while it’s not mine, I do think it’s well worth that title. It’s a game of peaks and valleys. What it does well it does incredibly well, but when it’s naff… it’s really naff. There’s a lot of freshness in here, like a day-old pear in a fruit-bowl, but it’s sat alongside apples and oranges which are beginning to go soft.THE SCP FOUNDATIONhttp://www.scpwiki.comMUSIC USEDDeath Stranding OST - TimefallDeath Stranding OST - FragileAlan Wake OST - The Writer's DreamAlan Wake OST - The ClickerAlan Wake OST - Thomas ZaneSubnautica OST - Stars and MoonThe Turing Test OST - Main ThemeFOOTAGE/REFERENCES1) The Art and Making of Control2) VideoGameSource - youtube.com/user/xVideoGamesSourcex3)Sam Farrell - youtube.com/watch?v=UjI3mqz5TSU4) Gaming University - youtube.com/watch?v=j5S0zzQhRzQ&t=3s5) HENI Talks - youtube.com/watch?v=_HlvFEZdg9I6) Control Behind The Scenes - youtube.com/watch?v=-eDkR2opC7Y&t=5s

FromSoftware deserves a lot of credit for trying to evolve the Soulsborne format. Offering either stealth or swordplay, it pulls back from the overwhelming choice you get from Dark Souls and Bloodborne’s numbers-heavy character progression, in favour of a smaller array of choices. This demands that the player engage with all of it and get better. The agility which wolf has is a wonder to behold, the world is gorgeous, and vibrant, colourful, despite the rot undercutting its tale.
