The game got a dodge and animal block patch. It's still mildly unplayable. I have no idea how people managed to play it before the patch.
The game so far is sorely disappointing me. Really high hopes for it, really liked Risen 1.

Pirate on shoulder stat? Awesome. Also, the Half Life part, freaking hilarious.

Should show Yahtzee Revelations 2012, that should get a great blast of vile from him because that game is utter shit.

 

[Bayushi_Kouya]

That's a shame. I was hoping this game was going to be good. I suppose I should've known better, after playing the first one, but hope springs eternal (don't play the first, btw).

 

[jetpickering]

RPG Pirate Game? More like ARGGHHH-Pee-Gee

Hehe....

 

[Scarim Coral]

Ha I like the Kony2012 stab you places throughtout the video. Also that Half Life voice over at the end seen abit random. While it is funny but are you promoting something or is it a one off thing? Still I would like to see you collaborate with Scott from Accused Farm (aka creator of Freeman Mind).

 

[GonzoGamer]

So did Yahtzee make a mod for HL or Portal or something? WTF was that? It was hilarious.
"Stop banging on the door, we know you're out there we just don't like you."

"Playing the hits while you play god"

 

[Amaror]

Just btw. you have to block, when you want you're character to kick.
And yes i know yathzee will probably not read this, i just want to say it nevertheless.

 

[Kuilui]

Good stuff as usual Yahtzee, and the Half Life bit at the end was great. Was a bit surprised I didn't see a Lone Survivor review this week though. Figured you'd be all over that game and have a review up by now.

 

[CyricZ]

Ah, the lovely return of the post-feature gag. How I missed ye.

 

[baddude1337]

Loved the little Half Life sketch at the end!

 

[Bobic]

I must admit, I have been tempted by Dark Waters and its piratey goodness, and this review hasn't turned me off it. It's definitely a steam sale purchase for me.

Anyway, that's not why I'm commenting. You stated the name of the band behind that awesome 'I am a scientist' song, that I heard on Brainiac years ago. Thank you. Now I know what it's called and was able to look it up. You rule. (and the whole half life scene was pretty damned funny too).

 

[Panayjon]

Review was great and all, but don't care. Half-Life radio jockey overshadowed it. More please.

 

[ZZoMBiE13]

Loved the bit at the end. Too funny!

 

[Mamzelle_Kat]

Absolutely loved the Half Life bit at the end, especially the part where he goes: "To whomever is putting bowties on the test subjects, please stop doing that. Humanizing them makes the dissection... difficult."

Brilliant.

Oh yeah, nice review!

 

[Evil the White]

Yeah, I am a scientist.

I love the little end of review skits. More please!

HUZZAHH! the return of after video shorts.
