Bad Ideas from the State of Play - Delayed Input with Kyle Bosman

there's something so insanely funny to me about Kyle's face as he's trying to hold back a laugh from a joke he himself just made

Nice episode.

I love how they have to hide that it's a game as a service, say it real quietly, real quick. They know this shit doesn't work and people don't want it. Most of these service games are DOA.

So I gotta ask. What's with the honk?

Kyle, please do a video on your thoughts of Hogwarts Legacy

Studios in general need to stop with presenting “behind the scenes” pitches to the public. Shareholders etc want to repeatedly hear how excited you are to be working on the game, how awesome it’s going to be, what you’re doing to make it happen but the fans just want raw gameplay.

Destiny 2: Buzz Lightyear should've ended the trailer with "Her Hitler hairdo, it's making me feel ill."

The reason we can have a mature discussion using Zanghief but not Cammy is because we don't believe that Cammy would choose to be depicted the way she is, whereas Zanghief would.

It's like Bayonetta. Bayonetta isn't sexualized because she owns her depiction. We believe that fully. Contrast that with someone like Pyra from Xenoblade. In a fucked up way it's kind of like consent.

capcom is on the up and up

finally someone brave enough to shut down volcano high in a simple eloquent way

The vr games were amazing, you good? You specifically avoided the cool asf games and made the games you showed look bad. Like that’s a foundation game for fs sake

Missed opportunity to just wear the PSVR2 as a hat for the hat season. And just not address it at all after last weeks video it would be hilarious!!

That dinosaur game can only be good if the reason why they are dinosaurs is aethetically relevant when surprise plot twist, a meteor comes to earth and wipes everybody out and only a few of these characters survive, and the entire thing is some kind of strange allegory for kids in America and the trauma they have to endure because mass shootings are so prevalent there. And the title of the game is revealed to be a metaphor for losing innocents/innocence.

Humanity should of been a new Lemmings.

Hey you showed Crackdown 4 instead of the Suicide Squad!

Fugger cosplaying a 15 year old with cancer….

Oh Kyle -- there is indeed something very sexual about Zangief's depiction. 🐻

Suicide Squad: Kill My Hype

Totally need thigh jiggle in every game now! The most underrated feature :) To be honest though, I think it's actually a ripple effect on an impact particle that's just making it look like thigh jiggle. Like how sometimes they add a heat ripple effect to fire particles.

I think the level editor for Humanity will actually be a good thing

I used to work with Darius and he was a huge Spiderman fan if I remember correctly. Might explain Harley's grapple swinging.(lol)

Kyle is afraid to talk about Cammy's body so he talks about a man's thigh jiggle instead lol
western men are really domesticated and cowards.

I don't know why Bosman has the hat.

Even the worst Nintendo Directs in the modern age completely outclass these State of Plays. I don’t understand how Sony thought this was worth an entire presentation… should have been a blog post.

I can't believe you managed to keep a straight face for that entire ending bit lol

Was hoping for a HL: Alyx announcement. Or some deals with Oculus/Meta for Asgard's Wrath, Stormland and the Lone Echo Series. Instead, I got looooooads of Suicide Squad. In disturbingly bad video quality, as always. I wonder if they will ever manage to stream in high quality.

I love how in the very same sentence they mention how great the battle pass is, they have to point out how what you get with it is frivolous and inconsequential. Definitely a sign of a healthy industry.

Surprised you made through the 15 minutes.

spending 5-6 minutes rehashing a single point about how much time 15 minutes is and how little ground was covered was too much irony for me to handle

Wait a second, Green Hell VR is a really good fucking game tho.

Holy shit Kyle, every time I watch a new Delayed Input I think it’s my favorite one. This one was special. Thank you for your work.

I don’t know man, I’d probably stay away from the VR games. Green Hell is already out for PC and has great reviews and people seem excited for Journey to Foundation which is based off of very popular Isaac Asimov books.

Also I’m sorry but Humanity looks dope and that developer is terrific. Tetris Effect and Rez Infinite are not only great, they are moving.

The SS trailer sucked any wind out of my sails for that game. Arkham-verse turned into a generic 3rd person shooter. Literally all 4 characters can use all the different types of guns right? Like, what's even the point?

Suicide Squad is gonnna flop so hard. Executives are ruining single players games.

Please the "This is" is killing me

I’m pretty sure there’s people just as into Zangief, there’s a whole fangirl character made out of it after all. Anyway, I know it’s a joke but Honda’s whole body is shaking a lot more on the hit stop.

I just legitimately can't believe how hard they boinked the follow-up to Arkham Knight. What in the world were they thinking?

Hard disagree on Humanity. That game benefits from a level maker, as it lets players promote mastery in ways the base game likely won't. I.E., learn how to make a satisfying hard level and then someone else learns to beat it while seeing how it's made.

Also, the game looks very charming to me. I don't understand how you were nonplussed by it.

the negativity is insane. level editors are awesome

Wonderful journalistic eye Kyle, have a Like!

Been watching your stuff for years- thanks for always making such well delivered, creative, hilarious content. Never stop!

Any bets on how bold kyle has gotten since he started wearing a hat LOL

I think you’re wrong about Humanity

I don't care about Ameriyank cartoons deisgned exclusively to market toys to children and manchildren but Kyles powerful aura of and insights into this hobby

Completely vindicates me and makes me glad I didn't waste 15 minutes- or my childhood- looking at this.

damn. I didn't know the key dudes behind rocksteady left. :/ makes me even less hopefull

I do like the movement of the game shown, the premise I dig, and it is rocksteady after all.. but... it bing a battlepass game is.. a big ol YIKES. also. after wathcing that first initial trailer, I genuinly felt like I've seen all there is to see...

no suspense. no tension. no peaks and valleys. just a constant barrage of enemies and glowing weakpoints to fight...

Thigh jiggle on hit stop ✋️

Kyle: "In my mind atleast there is nothing sexual about [Zangief's] depiction.
Me, a gay man: Daddy? sorry. Daddy? sorry. awwoooooooga
