OMG. As a copywriter, I just want to smack whoever wrote that script.
They were clearly confused about their intended audience and appeared to
be writing a college admissions essay rather than a documentary. Gotta
show off that SAT vocabulary prep.
The voiceover guy, while slick, nearly put me into a coma by 10 minutes.
I seriously wonder if the whole thing was AI generated, tbh. Both the
script and the voice. It did not feel like humans produced it.
Thanks for sharing, but did you have the same experience?
I wasn't quite as negative, but I have to admit this was one of Gvmers
poorer videos. It was exceptionally shallow; little more than a
chronological listing of the games' releases. It smacked a lot of,
"Hey, Unreal was cool; remember this games?" sort of reporting.
But I'm not entirely sure I can fault Gvmers for not bringing in more
detail when even Epic doesn't seem to understand what went wrong. In
fact, the thing I took away most from the video was a reminder of the
part they didn't even say: for undisclosed reasons, Epic pulled the
original Unreal games from all storefronts, so there's no legitimate
way to purchase new copies of the classic games anymore.

I still need to watch it. I enjoyed the game, but more of a Wolfenstein, Quake, and Doom guy. ;)
"Unreal Tournament" was probably the game I played most of the
franchise. It was in many ways the last hurrah for my days of online multiplayer gaming; I'd continue to play games online afterwards, but
with much less enthusiasm and dedication. But I played a lot of
"Unreal Tournament" online when it was new, and later using the
"Tactical Ops" mod (pretty much "Counterstrike" for UT).

:P I finally watched the video late night. It was interesting and gave me flashbacks. :)
Flashbacks?
Yep to my UT gaming days. :)
Now I have an image in my head of Ant curled up into himself in a
fetal position, quivering as memories of Facing Worlds rip through his
mind. "Oh god, the snipers! So many snipers! No Johnny, no! Take the
lower path. The lower path! JOHNNNYYYY!!!!!!!!!!"
