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.**Support the Channel**http://patreon.com/RagnarRoxShowChapters00:00 Intro03:18 Part 1: Pearls Before Swine07:06 Sponsor08:58 Part 2: Welcome to The Mesh16:33 Part 3: TOP 5 REASONS HELLNIGHT WAS TOTALLY AHEAD OF ITS TIME23:06 Epilogue: Atlus was onto something here28:43 Thank you & Credits__Thanks for additional Footage Recording: Mira Cox@Snaping Snapper

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.

Fatal Frame 4: The Terrifying Lost Chapter (that Nintendo Abandoned) RagnarRox 2021-10-15 | After finishing the PS2-trilogy of Fatal Frame, I just couldn't get enough of the series and decided to play the never-released-in-the-West Lost Chapter of the saga: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse that came out for the Ninteno Wii exclusively in Japan in 2008. For how obscure and forgotten it is, this is a surprisingly brilliant and brutally overlooked survival horror title. Co-directed by none other than Goichu Suda aka Suda 51, it’s a brilliantly crafted, soil-your-pants-scary, genuine Fatal Frame that brings a handful of new innovations to the formula, including claustrophobia-inducing over-the-shoulder camera and hauntinly immersive motion controls, and the fact that Nintendo lets it rot in their vaults is an *unpunished capital crime*.MONSTERS OF THE WEEK: FATAL FRAME 4 - MASK OF THE LUNAR ECLIPSE#FatalFrameReview #ProjectZero #FatalFrame4 #MonstersOfTheWeekLuckily there exists a phenomenal fan translation.

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.__Get Death Trashitch.io: craftinglegends.itch.io/deathtrashSteam: store.steampowered.com/app/941460?utm_source=RagnarRox__CreditsCopy Editing & Captions (English): Matt Coxtwitter.com/pop_primerGuest-Voice (William Gibson Quote): Michael Sabayoutube.com/c/MichaelSaba_Video Games shown in this video (in order of first appearance)Fallout 3 (2008), Nuclear Throne (2015), Disco Elysium (2019), Stalker Anomaly, Fallout (1997), Fallout 2 (1998), Diablo (1996), Cryostasis (2008)__Movies/TV Shows shown in this video (in order of appearance)The Simpsons (1989 –), Futurama (1999 – 2013), Escape from New York (1981), Hannibal (2013 – 2015)__Music CreditsContains samples fromFallout, Fallout 3, Fallout Tactics__Gameplay CreditsPC Longplay [639] Fallout | World of Longplaysyoutube.com/watch?v=dGZjse7uC_0Played by: JagoftroyLet's Play Fallout 2 (part 4 - Care For a Rat Stew?) | MetalCanyonyoutube.com/watch?v=it9LHod9Lmg

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.__Support RagnarRox on Patreonhttp://www.patreon.com/RagnarRoxShowFollow me on Twitterhttp://www.twitter.com/RagnarRoxShow__How to Setup Koudelka on a PS1 Emulatordocs.google.com/document/d/1RE0rcxODUBKtihKKNfqZdOie9crLM2CrDPkanysaklo/edit?usp=sharing__Jinzee’s video on Koudelkayoutube.com/watch?v=1Ly05ovkWVk__Get the CHASING STATIC Demo on Steam and add the game to your wishlist:store.steampowered.com/app/1319420/Chasing_Static__CreditsOriginal Script: Michael Sabayoutube.com/watch?v=MN2qxq3KhWIClosed Captions (English): Matt Coxtwitter.com/pop_primerFootage Recording: Jordan Pijnenburgyoutube.com/channel/UCH-SI1YuXLyAaCdR2NJKRlA__Video/Gameplay CreditsFinal Symphony - Interview with Nobuo Uematsu | Merregnon Studiosyoutube.com/watch?v=r1rbdoUmZGI[Classic Longplay] System Shock 2 [Part 1] by ShadowsRage2youtube.com/watch?v=8T-qHLifYWUUltima Underworld : Playstation Version Speedrun by dandandan5youtube.com/watch?v=quzUTPfWqbYThief: The Dark Project Review by MandaloreGamingyoutube.com/watch?v=UBN5k6WoG-sPC Longplay [1103] System Shock: Enhanced Edition by AFigureInBlackyoutube.com/watch?v=jE5LpOGMeak__Video Games shown in this video (in order of appearance)Xenogears, Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy VII, Earthbound 2: Mother, Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Secret of Mana, Parasite Eve, Front Mission 2, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, Final Fantasy X, Koudelka, Fatal Fury Special, Shadow Hearts, Souikagi, Trials of Mana, System Shock 2, Ultima Underworld (PSX, Japanese Version), System Shock: Enhanced Edition, Deep Fear, Final Fantasy Tactics__Movies shown in this video (in order of appearance)Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure - Stardust Crusaders, Muppet Treasure Island__Music CreditsXenogears: Light From The NetherworldKoudelka - PatienceShadow Hearts Covenant: Prelude – Advertise ISouikagi: Ancient PowerSecret of Mana OSTRamxes: A Different Kind of HellKoudelka: WaterfallCecil Opia: ShameShadow Hearts Covenant: Old Smudged Map – Map of EuropeBaten Kaitos: Valley of the WindShadow Hearts - From the New World: Et Unam Chant Of ICAROShadow Hearts Covenant: ICARO (Piano Arrangement) – Main Theme __Contains samples fromXenogears OST by Yasunori Mitsuda, Koudelka OST by Hiroki Kikuta,Shadow Hearts Covenant OST by Yoshitaka Hirota, Yasunori Mitsuda & Kenji Ito

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 CRYOSTASISIn 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.
