Quick Look: Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas

When typing Oboe Yoyomatsu in the GB search window it should just redirect to Nobuo Uematsu immediately. Make it a recognised alias/nickname or something.

God damn. This game looks beautiful, but someone needs to drill into developer's heads that their obscure esoteric name is a horrible fucking idea and will seriously stunt their game's popularity.

Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas. What? Why the subtitle? Oceanhorn. Boom. Perfect. When you add a full sentence afterward it all becomes blurred forgettable gibberish in people's memories.

That bomb moment near the end was awesome. I was stuck too. :P

Was not expecting Drew to pull out The Jerk references toward the end there.

Dan doesn't know something that I know! I need to tell everyone so they know that I know something Dan doesn't know!

Were the bombs unable to be thrown in the Audrey's mouth

I try not to let these kinds of things get to me, but god DAMN was it frustrating to watch them aimlessly walk around for so long. This game looks pretty good, in any case.

looks like a fisher price zelda to me. all the trimmings but none of the soul

this game looks incredible ?????

Did anybody else hear this song at ~34:40?

Well, buddy, why do you even mention it without telling us what you're talking about? And you seem so excited, is this the first time that happened? Because the great thing about Dan is that those moments come around at least once or twice per video for most people.

Aw, he was wearing a wingsuit? I thought he just jumped out of a plane with nothing.

its like someone saw zelda and removed any charm from it

Is there another clue somewhere about finding the boss? It seems crazy that they would expect you to bomb the floor at the top of that tower. Well, props to Drew I guess for figuring it out.

I SPEEL MY DRINK!

Ding ding ding!

I was onboard until they got to the sailing. They had all of Zelda to be inspired by and they choose sailing? Seriously - Fuck. That.

I generally liked Wind Waker, but the sailing was the worst.

Does Dan not know what moss is?

Having been born in California, and having visited many times, I strongly suspect that he was talking about 'ice plants', a type of succulent that grows along the coast (proper name: Carpobrotus edulis).

That's it!

54:11 hahaha. The last 15 minutes pissed me off so much cause they just kept going back and forth to the same places, and then that happens :D

Ha! Is that like a thing? Deus EX? 'cause if it is, I had myself a good chuckle. Didn't speel my drink tho ;)

Getting rather tired of games that lean on classics this damn much, but I feel that this is definately across that line of yours, Dan.

Looks better than expected , hearing 'Zelda Clone / Mobile port' didn't fill me with enthusiasm but if this video is anything to go by, it appears to punch above its weight.

I'll take a look at it at some stage.

I thought this looked cool. A Vita port would be awesome.

I thought you were talking about another plant usually found along bodies of salt water, Pickleweed. There's a lot of it around the Petaluma River.

Dan and the mysteries of the sea.

The game seems okay, but the music is so bland it's really off putting to me.

When in doubt, bombs

Thanks for the quick look and showing games I otherwise probably would have missed.

Going to be giving this a try. Thanks!

All the trimmings and none of the soul? That sounds like every actual Zelda game for the last ten years.
