    The problem with this game, is that after it's finished, you can't play anything else, especially if it was experienced at a young age. It just sets a ridiculous high standard that most games won't even try to achieve.
  • @DrRESHES
    I've watched it 4 times from beginning to End. Reviews of this game and of this caliber never been thrown around in. Ever.

    Come on man! It's almost been a year, where's the 1.13 video? :P -- Reason I want it so bad is cause this video was really well done!
  • I found Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games in a bargain bin, bought it, and enjoyed it. Loved little things, like slipping and falling when you try to run on a snowy day. So when I saw this in 2002, I bought it. I've been playing it ever since. I just keep learning stuff and wanting to start over with what I've learned. And to be honest, there's a sweet spot where you are just starting to get good weapons, and you can ambush the Elite troops to get better ones, that I just love. But I finally bit the bullet and actually finished the game in 2020 for the first time. Yes, I played it for 18 years, for hundreds of hours, if not thousands, without ever caring if I finished it. And I'm still playing it, using Straciatelli now, since I can't get it to work well any other way. The only thing I miss is, on one of the earlier versions, the higher difficulty was timed turns, so if you interrupted someone, you had a certain amount of time (based on your level) to act before they continued with their turn. THAT was hard at the lower levels. By the time you get to level 6, the time really doesn't advance on an interrupt anymore. But I tell you, that made you make sure all your weapons were ready when you thought someone might round the corner. These days, all I can find are the Iron Man ones that don't let you save in combat...which makes things harder in a different way. Anyway, thanks for the memories and the humor.
  • Its quite hard to find another format like this. And this is exceptionally well done! I approve!👍

    God Fucking Damnit, this is soo much fun to rewatch!!! i dunno how many times i already did. And still waiting for the mod reviews or Alloids (Rage of Mages) review, that would be awesome!
  • @DownLen

  • I have been waiting to try insurrection for far too long. Its time to reconnect with my inner conqueror 🔫

    Это наверное лучший обзор по JA2 что мне приходилось смотреть . В мире не так много людей кто может понять это чувство , когда через пару лет игры ты узнаешь что существует кнопка ускорения времени , а ещё через пять лет ты читаешь в журнале что в игре есть крафт , и ещё через пять лет появляется you tube и ты понимаешь что 15 лет играл неправильно ))

    That was a really nice review! Been playing JA2 since 1998s Demo(ville). One of my alltime favorites.
  • @Rollskblau
    You got the talent! I will be watching this channel with interest.
  • @DrRESHES
    Fantastic! Can't wait for the mod reviews.
  • @Phil_597
    Hilarious and informative. I don't know what's more underrated, this game or the channel.
