The Mystery Game That Went Missing
In July of 2015, A Crowd Of Monsters released the first episode of Blues and Bullets, an episodic noir style video game about Eliot Ness, Al Capone, and an evil cult. However, the game was never finished, and there seems to be no explanation as to what happened and why. This is my investigation into the mystery of the missing mystery game.
A HUGE special thanks to the voice actor of Eliot Ness (and also Geralt from The Witcher Franchise) Doug Cockle! Please go give him a follow and support him in his projects!

When Franchises Go Handheld
Переглядів 9 тис.4 місяці тому
What happens when large established gaming franchises decide to go on handheld devices for the first time? Can they keep the same gameplay and maintain consistency? Or will they be forced to compromise and change their vision? Or perhaps, make something new entirely? In this video we dive into some of the most well known franchises, and how they adapted to the ever expanding systems. Massive th...

    Years ago, but something I feel the need to mention in the opening. Tower Defense is great for ADHD, since while it is slow paced, something is always happening on the map and you can get away with focusing a lot more on the individual stuff then you can in other games.

  • @einnotoptimal6701

    yoooo... dude, Ultimate Defense is something i played for 5 or 10 minutes 15 years ago, when I was 6. There was a lot of text at the start, and I didn't speak English at the time, so it was overwhelming and i didn't know what i was doing. I also never remember the titles of games Which is fucking crazy that the moment you showed the footage of the game, I immediately recognized it. Isnt the brain fucking crazy. it was such a small slice of my life so long ago, yet the memory was still in there somewhere. It partly have to do with how unique the game looks too. The theme and the 3D look really made an impression on my 6 years old brain

    Thank you for taking the time to respect people's triggers and sensitivities in a considerate manner. It's a really hard line to walk between "censor everything" and "f--k people's feelings" but I think you did a really good job of finding a reasonable middle ground.

      Appreciate this feedback! I want to do more story analysis in addition to mechanics analysis in the future, and while most games won't be nearly as dark as this, it's still important to me that I can present the story as truthfully as possible, while also making sure that people won't have to leave a video midway through due to unexpectedly being upset by the content. I'd rather add a quick disclaimer and lose the view VS upsetting someone and ruining their day.

    3:42:50 regarding the motion sickness, have you ever had any when playing or watching half-life / half-life 2? Maybe portal? How about any of the cs games? Was strange to find out that im completely fine in csgo and portal2, mildly irritated by 1.6 and portal 1, but watching half an hour of hl1 or playing an hour of hl2 make me so sick I have to lay down with a headache and sleep to recover.

    • @RealityEscape
      @RealityEscape 9 днів тому

      I havent played a tooonnn of half-life so I can't really recall but portal is definitely a big trigger for me, as much as I like the game. Basically once the gels get introduced or you do any sort of flying when you start to do flips, I can feel it almost immediately.

    This is definitely a game I regret missing. An incredible video! For the others in the comments -- anyone have any guesses as to what Doug narrated but wasn't sure about in the title in the interview? From his own website, the four games he was credited in as the narrator are 'Tales of Iron' in '21 (which he mentions later in the interview, so that's probably out), 'Yokaverse' and 'Diofield Chronicle' in '22 (both good candidates as far as I can tell), and Tales of Iron 2 this year. Interestingly, the same list on Wikipedia is much shorter -- and has some other games in the same range (Namely, God Souls and Payday 3, both in named roles.)

    What was the file size? What was the render time? How long did it take to upload? How long is the final script? How many hours spent on recording voice and how many on montage?

      86 Gbs I had to render every section on its own and then render the entire thing together, so maybe 20 hours, probably a bit more. Surprisingly not too bad, I think it was maybe 6-7 hours. 98k words Voice recordings were done over the course of months, maybe 12-14 hours total? Honestly i didn't do as many takes as i should have and rushed a lot. Not sure what you mean by montage.

    • @IHateHandlesWayTooMuch
      @IHateHandlesWayTooMuch 13 днів тому

      ​@@RealityEscapedidnt expect such a quick response, thank you By montage I meant using the editing software, putting clips and audio together, etc.. video editing is the proper terminology, I suppose. Overall, those stats dont seem too bad. For combining the whole thing together, if I may suggest, try looking into ffmpeg's copy codec - that is, if all segments have been previously rendered with the same settings Appreciate what you do!

    • @RealityEscape
      @RealityEscape 11 днів тому

      Video is hard to say because they're all pretty different! Age of Empires certainly took a long time because I had to find a lot of specific moments in a large pool of content, same with something like Might and Magic. Something like Dynasty Warriors where all the gameplay looks the same after a few minutes was a lot easier because there was less specific examples to have to find. I couldn't give an exact time estimate because this is something I worked on and off on for about 8-9 months, some of the footage was recorded over a year from release date, but either way I was happy with the timeline in which I got it done. I actually feel like I could have gotten it done faster but I learned a lot of lessons for future stuff. As for combining, I like having everything combined in my editing program so I can clean up transitions and make sure everything is tidy. Thank you for the kind words and comments!
