DAIKATANA - THE GREAT GREEN DRAGON
🕑 Added 2020-05-18 14:48:23 +0000 UTCHello, valued patrons! The sheer number of you, especially those who pledged in the last couple of weeks, is staggering and humbling. Thank you all! Please accept this enormous, superlong, maximum-effort dissection of the infamous Daikatana, a game I have been immersed in for too long. This is easily the biggest and most complicated production for any video I've ever done, mostly because of the ending, which itself took about five days over the last couple months and was 3/4 done even before tackling the script. AX3 got a
remodel because his pixel-y edges were driving me crazy.
I think it's going to go public before I hit 200k, but whatever.
The attitude since the last video has been that the Daikatana video will be done "when it's done," and now, finally, after a couple days of adjustments and trimming down some of the interminable cutscene crap, I think it is. Except one of the chapter titles is off-center.
There's a ton of stuff lying around from the production so I thought maybe I'd put a short video together for patrons with some cut content/behind the scenes info. It contains spoilers for the video itself, so be warned before watching it.

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.

Well we just got pro Wolf3D... So I guess Pro Blake Stone soon. Hopefully Civvie doesn't blueball us.
Mike Nelson
Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2 when Civvie?
Brian Rich
Congratulations on 200k subscribers CV-11! When will we get Pro Blake-Stone and Pro Chasm The Rift?
Quake 2 or Quake 4 probably.
Mark 'The Commissioner' Hancock
The sewer count hit gross, in the Daikatana episode. It's a thing of beauty. If I was told it was planned back when the channel was founded, I might actually buy it. 😁. (🤔 All right, just in case, 144 = 1 gross, or a dozen².)
Danny
Yeah that would be awesome. And painful.
Clive barkers Jericho when civvie????
QuetzaDrake
I legit don't know what to shitpost anymore for the 300k special, I think you've covered the gambit of famous bad FPSes at this point. Maybe it'll just have to be a good game instead.
Mike Nelson
Civvie, this video made me go upstairs to my old childhood bedroom just to find my old copy of Masters Of Doom... And it was worth it.
Declan Boss
Great episode, Civvie! If I had only two dollars, one would still come to this Patreon.
That brought back some memories. I played Daikatana when it was released (could be some years later, I don't remember). I was so excited: The game of Mr. rockstar Romero.... And now I feel like a hero. I had to play this shit in its original sin. And I remember the sidekicks constantly dying. Especially in the dark ages where superfly was carrying the chick. We had to climb some stairs together and they were locking up or dying like every 5 minutes.

You know, I've always wondered about that Anachronox game staring up at me from the back of my Deus Ex sleeve. I hear it's awful...
Civvie
Probably when I get around to playing 2 and 3

I almost hate to ask this sort of question, but any plans for the Marathon series? Really, I only ask because I've barely ever seen gameplay and the only way I ever will is if you do a video on it. The curiosity is there but I don't want to just watch some schlub, nah mean?

Did anyone else say it? Aight, "CV-11 is gonna make John Romero his Bitch."
Kurt Hectic
This was heavy.
Terry T. [ERROR]
Create an established lore already civvie.
Paul Voyles
Uh oh, an entire hour of John Romero making us his bitch?
CruduxCruo
Also Pro Age of Empires when Civvie
CruduxCruo
God Civvie, what could be the 300k video? I vote Trespasser. Or Redneck Rampage
Nickcronomicon
Commenting before watching btw, this gun b good. Thanks for all the laughs so far and here's to another *near* 200k subs!
Hungry Carrot
Memes aside, the amount of love and care that went into the voice over and editing is amazing. congrats dude, this is your best video yet, its had everything
Austen Gussenhoven
I'm excited to watch this later today
Burt Fuckman
Fuck yeah, nice one Civvie. The best part about all the new patrons is that we get an extended How'd I Do.
ToolofParanoia
Oooh I've been waiting for this one. Is John Romero aware?
Tripp Andre
Me when the notification hit my email: "Daikatana!!!!" Motivation to finish my work faster. Thanks Civvie!
Press M for murder ftw!
This one hurt, didn't it?
Civvie
lol I've never actually played through Deus Ex. Leave all disappointed comments below.
Ion Storm, indeed, made the best game in the PC games history. Ion Storm Austin, though. Therefore, Deus Ex when, Civvie?
Mike Nelson
It's finally here.
Nihil-Strogg
Thank you so much Civvie, i really need this after Corona took my fucking job.
Citizen Cain, PhD
Hit play and saw it was over an hour, then immediately giggled like a schoolgirl.
Kaiser Roll
Oh hell yeah, I really needed this it's been a pretty shitty day so far.
Alpha Scientist Javo
Oh and Blood 2
Alpha Scientist Javo
I prefer to believe the length of the video is proportional to how much Civvie likes the game meaning his all time favorite games are DNF and Daikatana
Fucking sweet. This will get me through a truly awful day at work tomorrow, knowing this greasy boy is waiting for me. Thanks, Civvie!
A Guy in a Jacket
Nice. 👍
Maffi Lu
Just joined and already get something to look at. I gotta buy some chips and dip for this!
Raul Campos
Awesome, can't wait to see this after work. Thanks, Civvie.
JOE MOTHERFUCKING TREEFELNER
