HROT Episode 1 - CZ Meltdown
🕑 Added 2021-02-16 16:56:08 +0000 UTCIf you're looking for the Patreon discord link it's in this post, and all update posts, below me rambling about stuff. Why not do the integration? Because it's weird and buggy and I don't like to tie patreon discord membership to current patrons only. If you paid, you're in.
Took a little longer to get this out than I'd planned. It's a short video, but Civvie did a dumb thing and upgraded all of his audio equipment (new mic, preamp and headphones) in an earnest attempt to increase the audio quality of these videos. I didn't realize that getting a better microphone and better headphones would lead to hearing significantly more noises and quality issues than I did in past videos. Because dumb. There are a couple areas where it's actually supposed to sound distant (the blood and fat can and the "katie will fix it" bits).
Overall I think it was worth it and I'm glad I was testing all of this on a short video because I ended up doing the main voiceover three times. There are a couple issues here and there with voiceover not quite matching because of different recording times and environments but the voiceover sounds a lot cleaner than it used to on my years-old "XLR mic to stereo jack to USB adapter" hacked-together setup that I'd been using forever. It was time.
Next video is Pro Wolf3D because why do anything in order? Looking forward to episode 2 of HROT even if I have some gripes with it. Shout out to all the Czech fans who have to sit through me explaining things they already knew about.

If you'd like to have a different name in the credits than what you pledged with, leave me a comment, or DM me on here or Twitter or discord or whatever. If your name is wrong, not included, or anything else, shoot me a message calling me an asshole and telling me to fix it.
Or if you want one of those fancy colored names that everyone gets now if they want. The credits in the video are usually a couple of days behind the actual patron list.

Oh, wolf3D next? Good luck with Episode 6, that's really gonna sting, especially if you're using a source port.

Civvie don't tell me you got a visit from a G-man. Hope you can bribe, ah i mean laywer your way out of it should that be the case. Anyway if your looking for a new Dungeon i might have something in Europe, it even has windows.

Fuck yes
Civvie

It's clearly zommunists.
When you are from Poland and locations in the game are very similar to many places in your country. Good stuff.

hrot is the pathologic of boomer shooters

Wonder if this trend will come full circle and we'll end up back at grey/brown military shooters again?
Oh boy, first time on the patron list and already got my money's worth.

This is like, the most polished SlavJank since Cyberpunk 2077.

hey civvie, can you please change my name in the credits to show as uncleboz from now on and make it hot pink please mate. it'd be much appreciated! also great video btw
Incidentally the closest translation of HROT is probably speartip, or point - like a point man. Great video!

lol welcome to the good audio quality zone
It's like that flak cannon and the SSG got their damage swapped. Not too bad looking of a game, though that is entirely way too much brown.
Yeeesss, Slavquake. And Pro Wolf3D will be interesting, as I never felt it aged very well. RTCW on the other hand... Pro RTCW when Civvie?
Greetings from Czech Republic! Thanks for another great upload and have a great day

"Shout out to all the Czech and Slovak fans", there I fixed that for ya. And even some hungarians and poles. That's what you get after 2 world wars... :}

New audio sounded quite good. Still sounded pretty distant during the canned blood bit, which you probably intended. And it sounded good!

Okay I'm checking this out. Love me a good retrostyle shooter. I immediately get Pathologic vibes from these ambient tracks too btw. Flavor of the region, I guess.
Civvie goes pro

Looking forward to hearing the "New" sounds & voice of Civvie, guarantee it'll be great!
