    Every time gameranx makes a video about genius mechanics, I am legally obligated to complain about Warner Bros. patenting the Nemesis System and letting it rot.<br>Imagine how incredible RPGs would be today if developers were actually allowed to use a modernized Nemesis System

    The standoff mechanic in Ghost Of Tsushima. And bonus points for terrifying enemies in your vicinity that haven&apos;t been cut to ribbons. Oh! The mikiri counter in Sekiro. One of the best combat mechanics in gaming history as far as I&apos;m concerned

    I really liked the mechanic where you change the environment based on the narrative in Alan Wake 2

    A missed opportunity to give Split Fiction a shout. That game has many dozens of cool mechanics

    Well, you just got Gothic a purchase! Like, literally, as someone who hasn&apos;t played the OG Gothic, and as someone that LOVES Flame Mage in Skyrim, that&apos;s RIGHT up my alley, and I&apos;m going ALL in for magic in Gothic.

    Magic in Outward was truly well done. Its not something you just put points into, but a journey and really lore-friendly way to obtain it.

    As a Crimson Desert enjoyer, it&apos;s always fun listening to Falcon talk about the game

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWAI-LcfsuA&amp;t=800">13:20</a> Absolutely solid reference! Calling out House for the unprecedented about of B&amp;E, that nobody talks about for some reason.

YouTube, with the door locked.

Aegis plays a clean stream instead of YouTube's player, so pre-roll ads, trackers, and fingerprinting never ride along. Drop Shields any time if you want the official player back.
