Dang, couldn't focus on the video cause of BeauDiePie <3

Argh, so torn if I should pick this up. Been looking for a good horror game (I'll probably get The Evil Within).

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
Great contribution

Anyway the game looks awesome, watched the whole video and I like how it starts. Looking forward to the game more now
Thanks!

It is hard to watch the video because of him. Better? I am very excited to see how this game is received.

I don't think this game will be my kind of thing. I should trade my key for Ryse or Mordor.

Still going to wait for GAF impressions on this one. I don't really do well with horror games, and I want to make sure it's actually good (lives up to its own hype) before jumping in.
 
I hope people don't ignore this video outside of the purpose of not wanting spoilers. Pewdiepie doesn't scream or anything in the video, just usual comments in regards to the game.


For the first 20 minutes, they nailed the alien aesthetic, and i think that this game will shape up to be one of the best of the year =). Finally a true alien game.

Skipped most of the intro, but man, I wish this game had better animations in-game. With higher visual fidelity, the jerky animation snaps and lackluster lip syncs take me out of it, even if the game looks pretty amazing otherwise.

I'm definitely excited for this, and I love how the old future technology is represented almost flawlessly from what I've seen.

Edit: Get your damn cursor off the screen during cut-scenes.

A thousand times this. His voice, fine, but the cursor, jesus christ.

Also, the in-game aspect ratio looks off. It's warping my mind.

Game looks interesting otherwise.

Thought about posting this earlier, but I don't want to give PewDiePie more exposure. Not that it matters in the end, too late for that.

Anyway, I have no idea what's going on here, look at the animations and lip sync, the jank is real. Early version, or a sign of what's to come? I don't know. And it feels like there's something off with the aspect ratio, the image looks weird. Could be PDP's fault or there's something going on,

Heh, the Pewdiepie hate in this thread is real! Just watched this with my GF, glad Pewds keeps getting such good access to cool upcoming games.

A lot of the hate he gets I think is just 'hipsterism', a lot of the LP channels people who dislike PewDiePie recommend are usually really boring stuff like Retsuprae/Slowbeef or similar SA type streamers who just ramble and have low quality video and audio.

A little surprising that they're giving him the game early knowing full well he's going to capture the entire thing (the title says playthrough part one), but whatever. Looks alright, but I'm gonna need to see more before I get really excited.

One imagines at a certain point he will stop and pick it back up after release.

It seems like every video I've seen of it it's had really bad aliasing.
This is the PC version though, there should be a good amount of options and given the amount of money he makes from doing videos one would imagine he has a half-decent rig.

Honestly while Pewds isn't my style of video game commentary I definitely don't hate him. I think it's awesome that one guy playing video games had conquered one of the most popular websites on the internet and literally has his life set financially probably for the rest of his days.

Now what I hate is his fans, the "Bro Army." They are just... terrible with how they behave.

As for this game, I am still amazed it happened, and that it appears to be good. An Aliens Survival Horror game after Colonial Marines? Cool that the franchise in video games didn't die with that.

Or maybe some people just find his childishness offputting.

I dont ever see myself watching a PDP video. But I have plenty of nieces and nephews who play video games that I think would like his videos. They're approx. 5 years old, and if you give them a chance they will watch a lot of pure crap content on YouTube. It's part of being a good parent to not let them.
 
I just watched like 10 minutes. I already can't stand the guy and this is the very first video of him I've ever seen.

How in fucks name does that dude have over 30 million subscribers? That cant be right.

The same way Justin Bieber has so many fans?
