February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmMy god those TTS voice lines sound absolutely demented
@vajaspiritos744
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmTo be honest the skybox looks better than 90 percent of what new games have.
@luridftwgaming8983
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI downloaded the game because of this video. Everyone was angry that I was using a cheat engine. All Iβm trying to do is explore sorry am I supposed to take this dead broken game seriously?

February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThe NPC voicing is ultra-cursed.
70%+ positive ratings :V
@malka1762

February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmjoshes sleep paralysis demon ahh yes josh we meet again!*sees that* by the hells donβt sneak up on me like that!
@lucho9911
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmIm convinced that this game is a created purgatory, npcβs are sacrificed employees to forever partake/guide newcomers in this world and once you die IRL your soul is sent there π
In all seriousness fcking A this shit is creepy, definitely gonna try out
@MCLefka
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI bought and played it a while ago, and something about it is…just Lovecraftian. Its creepy and in some ways disturbing but you are compelled to keep looking around. Its hard to explain, like an unseen force is keeping you glued to your chair.
Mechanically, game is shit. But it does have an atmosphere and feeling that just cant be matched
@thewighthare268
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmHey Josh, sry about that AI Laura Croft thing… anyway,
I've watched all your Worst MMOs. I think about this one the most. What a crazy journey.
@jaykay6222
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI don't think I can go back on what I said about the voices, but some of this really did make me interested, and not to mention comments talking about how the devs saw this and made game improvements and how people joined the game and it's got more players now. It's all a really cool story, and I'm glad people are experiencing it.
@jaykay6222
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmTurn the voices off for the love of god I already can't stand it. Quitting moment absolutely. If the game couldn't be interesting without sound I would not have lasted beyond the first spoken sentence.
@auellaitaela8035
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmIt's a bummer this game's player stats went back to normal a couple months after the video. After watching this was really hoping we'd see a revival type situation, or at least a small community arise around it as it definitely looks like something special.
@demonferret7803
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmGod damn itβ¦ now Iβm intriguedβ¦
@KerberosLive
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThis was definitely the most memorable game in this series so far
@guthriehartsfield9499
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI put this video on to go to sleep as I often do with this series⦠I had to turn it off immediately after hearing the NPC voices
@exxabkgaming3349
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThis game looks amazing, holy shit
@TheBaerserka
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmfinaly i found a new main game π
@farkasmactavish
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmHonestly, I think this was trying to be a Dark Souls MMO. Even the player character premise is the same.
@sim.frischh9781
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmGiven that they are dead for millenia, them having a horrible TTS is kinda fitting… still, wouldnΒ΄t want that for hours in a game.
@Mikalon90
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmIf this is an MMO…where are the servers at? Hell?
@justice_1337
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmCool game concept being a skeleton. Love the bugs floating around the bone hands.
@nathanwilkie-king4000
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmi'd suggest requiem if your liking the horror mmo vibe

@ahouyearno
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI decide to play this weekend after seeing this vid. 3 other players online, all viewers of the channel
You literally revived this game with this video. And they deserve it. What a gem. Rough, but a gem.
@nathanielnizard2163
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThey threw too much pluggins at issues and forgot about basic engineering. Most of the craps in this game took lots of effort but creativity does not replace good taste or skill.
@TheMisleduser
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmBy the end of this review I started getting the vibe of one of those gaming creeppastas lol.
@connerblank5069
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmMan, that skybox is gorgeous.
@LyaksandraB
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmTo be honest, if you're going to use text to speech, this is the way. With the characters, voice and speech patterns being quite detached from human, there's no space for the uncanny valley to set in. This works, unlike people making photorealistic human characters with realistic sounding text to speech.

February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmthats not a game, its a cult!!!
@wesleythomas7125
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThis actually sounds pretty rad!
@avsync-live
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI think the text to speech fits pretty well Iβm sure it gets old though
@luminary69revision2
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmFive months later that review rating is up to 86% positive with double the total number of reviews lmao
the spike in concurrent activity dropped off pretty fast but there are more people on average playing than before the video released, at least for right now
I've been sorta binging these Worst MMO Ever videos out of sheer boredom and curiosity, but this whole story in particular is honestly surreal
maybe it resonates with me because I've been cursed my whole life with tons of neat ideas for things and absolutely none of the skills or commitment to do anything with them
honestly aside from the lag and straight up incorrect movement the game seems to create an absolutely perfect and captivating atmosphere mostly by accident or out of necessity, with that horrifying and ominous text-to-speech voiceover, the vast emptiness coupled with the suffocating feeling of the darkness
simple, rough, unpolished games like this feel just as immersive as the more professional, detailed, properly finished stuff sometimes, and when they do they also have this feeling of personality that I love
@SilverDragonJay
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI feel like the sound design would keep me from getting further then 5 minutes in. If I absolutely had to play it for some reason, I would simply mute the game.
@GRAVEAUDIO
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmI love your channel!!!
@psyhodelik
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmLove this series so much ^^
Thanks for your stuff
@thesaurusrext
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmSeems like art.
@erikhensler7
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmHoly shit dude. The voice part was epic I almost woke up my kid.
@seventh3211
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmIt always amazes me how a YouTube video can change the activity in a game, 94 players online at the same time after this video was released and 14 peak within last 24h with 4 playing while i type it.
It's really interesting to see
@Hendizzy69
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThis was the best sell on a mmo game I need to try this now
@therottenspecter
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThank you so much for making a video on this game. Downloaded it today and Iβm absolutely having a blast. Met several players who found all 8 pages and they have all been so helpful. The world is amazing the combat as actually super fun once you get some cool spells and the dialogue is superb. This game is loaded with charm and is absolutely worth a playthrough for anyone who is into surreal sandbox quirky fantasy games.
@Carp6969
February 1, 2024 - 11:00 pmThis game is awesome actually
