Why is This Game So Popular?

If you like games, you already know that 2026 has been an insane year for releases. Naturally, with all of these new titles, there's going to be [music] some that just fall to the wayside for you. For me, that game was going to be The Blood of Dawn Walker. You see, I don't like RPGs, and I don't even like vampires, so this game was really not made for me. And then something unexpected happened. The reviews started coming in. Time and time again, this game was getting insanely high scores from a company that literally has never made a game before. I mean, seriously, you go on their website, it says our game, not games. This is their one game. So, now I'm curious. Is this game really that good? Can it even appeal to somebody like me that shouldn't like this game at all? That is what we're going to find out today. A trying to burn the boy. Oh, come on. I'm holding a kid, man. Damn. Are we really going to start off with killing a kid? Damn. It's They're not just killing the kid. They're starting with the kid. Had we met under a different moon, THINGS MIGHT HAVE ENDED. >> OH NO. OH MY GOD. HE GOT HIS [ __ ] LEG taken off. Oh [ __ ] What the What kind of plague are we dealing with? They got the Are those Mongolians? Oh [ __ ] Blood magic. Ah no, man.

They got Genghask Khan, bro. like this. This is a day team. I believe >> I don't think he cares. >> Hey. Oh, what? Kidnapped. Kidnapped her ASAP. I'm just going to let this happen. Oh, wait. She's healing. I don't know how. I am life. >> Oh, okay. He's not a bad guy after all. Oh, never mind. >> Things will be different now. Please. They were they were waiting for the aura to drop so they could get their meal. All right. >> For all of you. >> Thank you, man. >> Honestly, strong start. I I feel like I kind of want to serve the vampires now. Oh, and the title. They were so confident in the cut scene they had to drop the title after the fact. This is the blood of Dawn Walker. I've been excited for this game for a little bit now. I I normally I'm not into vampires, but I I I don't know. There was something about this game that just made me want to give it a shot. Maybe it's that Bandai made it. Maybe it's that I don't know. Maybe it just looks good. M I feel like we got to start I don't want it to be fair. I I don't like when things are fair. I want it to be challenging. Let's go with that. Let's go with that. I would start on the highest difficulty, but I'm afraid. I'll be honest. It's a much better day. No vampires. No bald guys. No Baraka clones. Ah, look at We're thriving, man. We got Where'd you find that? A look at us guys. >> Come get the bread while [music] it's still warm. >> Coming. on my way. >> Don't [snorts] know about you, sweet pea. >> Oh, is she going to be dead? >> Oh, no. >> Did she dissolve this? Oh, no. >> Oh, I don't like this. >> I don't know why he got so mad so fast, though. [laughter] >> Like, there was really no reason for her to like him to get that mad though. La. >> Holy [ __ ] She's booking it downhill. When When do I get to play? >> Lunka, come back. >> La. Oh man, I don't like that at all. Oh, the [ __ ] was that, Luka? Oh my god, that dude. How? [laughter] Oh my. I needed 110% of my body weight to mantle that wall. Surely there's got to be a better Oh no. Surely this wasn't Lunka. Yeah. Uh, [ __ ] me, man. I'm having those vampire dreams again. Bro, what are vampires not able to do in this world? Oh, wait a minute. I didn't know I was playing a Sony first party game. [screaming] >> What? Where did you go, man? Come on. Oh, no. And she left her doll and Flash. She left everything. [screaming] >> Oh. Oh, she's actually fine. A random swordsman's about to kill her. There's only one way to stamp out this sickness. >> Oh, this is just a bad dream. >> Oh, she's got vampire powers. [screaming] >> So, wait, is this not a dream? Was that a real guy? >> Uh, >> the raki in his blood. You stood by while he fed me, didn't you? >> I I didn't know what. >> Save your breath, brother. [laughter] >> Looks like you'll need it. Oh, WHAT THE [ __ ] YO, LUGA. YO, YOU GOT to warn me next time. No, wait. Come back. Did the vampire bite make her more literate, too? She's speaking like perfect English. Oh, she's not going to help. I'm not getting the respect of a one-on-one. All right. L and RB to attack to the right and then attack to the Oh, no, dude. Oh, we actually have directional combat. You can block attacks from four direction. Okay, so we also have omniirection left block. Who wants next? Oh, it shows me where they're attacking from. Okay, perfect blocks. Oh, no. Okay, so I can just perfect parry. I can only see the direction from the guy I'm attacking. Damn. Wait, it's hard as [ __ ] man. How do [laughter] I, bro? How do I dodge? Like, [gasps] this combat system hard as hell. I did choose challenging. I Let's go. Down attack, up attack. I just don't know how to get out. Oh my god. Let's go. That was a perfect block, I think. [groaning] [ __ ] I'm Did I lose? Oh, no. I'm not doing Oh. Oh, DUDE. LUGA. DUDE, I was literally in the middle of Toriel. I blocked left when I should have blocked right. Are we chill? >> What's happening? No. Wait. Is he getting bloodbended right now? >> You shouldn't have followed me. >> I'm sorry. Can I go back to the picnic? >> But now, now there's no going back. >> Oh, now she's feeding me. I know. >> You're welcome, brother. Tit for tat. >> Why does Luca hate me? >> Oh no. No. I'm a monster now. Oh, damn it. Oh, all that the sweet life I used that your health is low. In vampire form, you can replenish health by drinking blood. I'm sorry about this, man. Oh. Oh, [laughter] 2 seconds as a vampire. I'm already sucking necks. Oh, dodge. Easy dodge. Oh, the claws are so much better than the sword. Who wants to get that neck sucked, though? Okay, so can I not dodge perfectly up? Ah, I'm out of stamina. Let me bite that neck real quick. Yeah, coming at me. M. Oh, you taste good, bro. You don't taste blood like that all the time. I am so ass at the combat. If there are stat points in this game, I am leveling up stamina cuz this sucks. Weave. Perfect block. Okay, so blocking is honestly a little bit better than than dodging to to me. >> Lunka, are you all right? >> Oh, great. What's she up to? >> I'm fine and you know it. >> What is up? When did you get so sassy? You were dying to the plague before me. Oh, I'm just going to say it. May maybe maybe this isn't woke of me, but >> you're a monster now. >> Well, I wouldn't be if you had ran faster, saved me from Scander, from Brenis. >> I tried my hardest. >> I tried. I I did my best. >> And also, you had the plague. You were dying anyway. >> Cohen. Cohen failed us all yet again. >> All right. We were out in the fields and then I I don't understand. >> Oh, you'll catch on sooner or later. So, when did she know she was a vampire? Was the picnic real? Was that a dream? >> We have places to be. >> Luka, wait. Shadow step. Okay. >> It's like Dishonored. Oh, that is Oh, wait. This is sick. >> Hear the bells. >> Oh [ __ ] >> Time for communion. >> Oh no, dude. This This does not look good. Damn. Luka hauling ass, bro. That's perfect form. Okay, I'm seeing a I'm seeing a cross. >> Come out. >> Uh oh no. >> What's going on? >> It's the Vampire Elite 4. Oh, wait. No, that's the family. Wait, that guy was our dad. That's our mom, too.

That's what >> Damn, bro. Caught me in my whitey looseies. [laughter] >> Why am I looking at him? There's something I want to tell you. I don't know if I should. I had a nightmare. >> I had that nightmare again. >> Dreams. That's what you worry about. >> Honestly, that makes sense. >> You didn't see her drinking the fra's blood. >> Oh, so that part was real. That's not how they turn people. >> Actually, can I wait? This is an RPG. I should be allowed to walk out butt ass naked if I want to. All right. Left stick up. X. Boom. Easy. All right. Here we go.

This family's a nightmare, man. The dream world was so much better THAN THIS. >> OH, NO. >> HOLD HER. Try again. >> Oh, god. This is aggressive. We can't just force her. I mean, yes, we can. >> You've seen what Princess does to people he considers too weak. I can't let that happen to her. I can't let these monsters. She needs to eat. >> I got it. Yep. I won't feed her against her will. No, I guess I will. All right, here we go. All right, down goes the oatmeal. >> I'm sorry about this, Mom. Come on. Here comes the airplane. Damn. It's just oatmeal. Bloody hell. What? What? What happened to her? [laughter] >> She did not like that. >> I'm sorry, love. It's all right. He's all right now. >> Ah, this this is tough. >> Go to Anchors. Tell her the herbs aren't working anymore. Ask if she's got anything stronger. I don't know what else to do. [laughter] >> I'll be on my way. >> This game's a 10 out of 10 if he reminds me to put some clothes on. Ah, they missed their chance. >> Oh [ __ ] Go L. Go L. Go L. Go L. All right, come on guys.

You're ill, too. >> You know, I used to work in the mines, right? I started when I was a bit older than Myrtto. Then I started having trouble breathing. Too much dust in my lungs. Dad said. >> No, dude. Little bits of stone. But it only hurts when I run too much. So, no more playing tag for now. Damn, man. >> Not even one day in, I'm already dying.

But I genuinely got >> I already told you. I don't know. >> Last time I saw him, he was home. >> Already went there. No sign of your old man. >> How the [ __ ] would I know? >> You answer my question, Cohen. Or I'll do more to her than just talk. >> What? >> I I He's kind of testing He's kind of testing my gangster here, bro. Like, am I really gonna am I really going to duel him to the death for this [ __ ] I don't know, bro. He kind of caught me naked. He kind of caught me naked. I'm not I'm not dueling for that.

Wait, why don't you just make it? What the hell? Oh, and you're charging me. You're not even putting it together, Ana. And you're charging me double. Oh, come on, Ana. I mean, I'll pay it, bro. Oh, I can't Oh, I literally am too poor. [laughter] >> I'm sorry. Oh my god, I'm such a freeloading piece of [ __ ] >> I'll give you Let me give you the 25 at least. Oh, thank you. You are you are too kind, actually. >> Oh, >> storm. >> Oh, the gods are angry at me for >> coming back. Maybe you'll stay a little longer then until it clears. >> We could practice your Latin again. >> I see. I knew that's what you do with RPGs, man. So, let me get this straight. I trauma dumped. I couldn't afford anything. And she might still let me hit. You know, I got to spend the 2hour glasses. >> Oh, yeah. >> [ __ ] What was that? Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Hold on. Hold on. >> My shed. A tree has fallen on the roof. All my herbs in ruins. This is really >> Oh, no. This really isn't the day for this, man. This is a terrible day. >> Oh. Hey. Hey. I know.

I worked all summer to collect these herbs and I need every one of them. >> I've really blown this entire interaction. I think like I've done nothing correct. >> There's no one to look out for me. I have to fend for myself with what little I have. >> I can't afford mishaps like this. >> She She looks like she's completely given up on me as a person. Just let me look at your wound. >> Can I see you without your shirt on? At least I'm being respectful and not looking. >> I guess. >> Oh my god. It's not too bad actually. That's just mild scrapes. Wait, you [laughter] >> Cohen, YOU DOG. You have done nothing for this woman and you want me to let you see her without her shirt on? Yeah, okay. I'll do that. You need to take off your shirt. Oh, Cohen, you you straight Cohen, you straight lying now. You can see the wound just fine, Cohen. Oh my god, you >> all right? >> Cohen, you dog. Surely I don't actually Oh my god, RPGs are so funny, man. Like, why am I doing this? Hold on. Let me wash. Let me get the cloth wet first. I am not going very fast with this process. Jeez, Cohen, take any longer, dude. Hit the Put the ointment on. Right. Right stick down. Sorry. I I should probably I should have right stick down a little softer. >> It's my fault. Old woman being clumsy. >> You don't really look that old. Are you supposed to be old? >> Stop calling yourself old. >> I mean, I had to. It gave me the option to actually say what I was saying in game. Hey, Wonka, are you trying to fix that child problem? Like, we like I could help you with that. Like, that's the one thing I can do for you. I can't pay you. I can't save your herbs, but like I'm missing the dialogue. >> Instead of listening to my gripes, [laughter] >> you helped finish this. >> I feel so bad for this character. She has been nothing but nice and helpful, and I've ruined everything. And she's still apologizing. >> Now, the bandage and you're free to go. It's even stopped raining. >> Oh god, she's like on the she's on the verge of tears, man. All right. And she took all her dried herbs back. That's the least I could do. I'm not really upset about that. All right, man. Honestly, like I guess I have time for like two more side quests. I'm dying. I need health. >> You seen my cell by any chance? The one with the spot in the back? Would you mind looking for it? I'd uh make it worth your while. >> I could look for your pig. Oh, brother. I got to I got to stop saying yes to side quest, man. Oh, brother. I have an actual busy day ahead of me and I'm out here tracking a [ __ ] pig. Oh, is that her? No, that is not. Yeah, these look like pig tracks to me. Okay. Oh, he's like hanging out with somebody. >> What are you doing here? Lost your way. >> No, I'm here for the pig. >> Not quite, Kuno. >> Nice pig you have there. >> Nice pig you have here. It's a Yorgus though, isn't it? I recognize that patch. >> Find us keepers. >> It doesn't work like that. >> Says who? >> I do. Says I give it back. >> Should have minded your own beeswax lad. >> You do not want to fight me. Are you Are you actually want the smoke? Should give me back the pig, [ __ ] Oh, easy blocks. I'm going to lay his ass out. Hey. [laughter] [gasps] Yeah. Yeah. You going to give back the Oh, the pig ran away. No. Come back, dude. [ __ ] mass start. I'm I'm out here fighting wolves to save a pig. This is This is prime RPG [ __ ] >> There you are. [laughter] >> Who wants an apple? Hey, you want an apple? >> Please don't make me use any more of my time. Oh, girl, come. And then we just auto transport back. Yes. Ah, look at She's just happy to be home, man. >> Ah, you found her. Turned out to be quite an adventure, though. The pig didn't make it easy. [snorts] Probably because she knows what's coming. I was sharpening the chopper earlier, getting it ready. Listen, Cohen, would you give me a hand? >> No. No. I'm not going to [ __ ] kill the pig. No. Get me out of here. No. No. >> Slaughter. All right, I'll pick a nice cup for you folks. Something to strengthen that poor Mar of yours. >> A damn it. I mean, it's just a pig, bro. My m [gasps] Oh, why is this actually a hard choice? I'm such a [ __ ] man. It's just a pig and my mom needs to eat. What would I do if I bought the pig? Like, genuinely, what the hell would I do with a pig? This is going to make me sad, man. Why not? I'LL HELP YOU. >> GOOD. >> COME NOW. Come on. >> Oh god, I'm such a little [ __ ] How how graphic? Like surely they're not going to make me like actually feel the weight of my decision, man. >> You grab the cell by the edge. Hold her steady. >> Oh no. No. >> It might help calm her down a bit. [laughter] [gasps] I'm not good with this, man. I'm such Oh, I eat meat in real life, bro. I have to see this kind of thing. Good girl. Oh, this is making me sad. >> Over the tide now. >> Oh, no. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. >> I'm sorry. Keep looking. Keep looking. You have to see it, Coen. You have to see it. [screaming] No. >> All right. [laughter] Still crowing. He's going to cry. >> A rag to wipe your hands and face. >> Oh, I did it for my mom. I did it for my mom. I did it for my mom. I did it for my mom. I did it for my mom. Oh god. H That's just reality, man. That shit's just animal kingdom [ __ ] Oh, I'm just making I'm making excuses. >> We eat animals. Rakira eat us. Maybe that's just the way of things. >> I I I don't know. I [laughter] I'd like to think. I don't know. I I genuinely I got no argument. Maybe you're right. God, that's bleak. She didn't have a bad life that s I fed her, stroked her back every once in a while. It kept the wolves away. >> Yeah, I mean it's true. >> Her time came like it comes for everyone anyway, doesn't it? >> Can't say. >> And a cut of fresh meat on top of it. >> I need the meat. I mean, I did it for the meat for my mom. There's only so much time in a day for side quest and that's what I checked. So, I kind of a lot of people are going to maybe have problems with the time system. I think it's kind of cool that you can't do everything in the game, you know? Like maybe I just messed up back in the house with that girl. Like maybe I did. Maybe I could have grabbed all the herbs, but I didn't see it. Now I'll never know. It's just in the past. And maybe I shouldn't have. Like if I could do a second playthrough right now, I'm telling you, I'm not messing up with the girl, and I'm definitely not helping find that pig. >> We're losing time. You know it. >> I've spoken my mind. >> Cohen, your old man sure got up on the wrong side of bed today, eh? Your name is Vladimir and a in a vampire game. You are not a good guy, man. >> What was that about? >> Nothing. Did you do what I asked? >> Yeah, I got the herbs and I killed a pig and I played tag and I regret all of it. >> Let's go inside. And >> hang on. >> What? What's that smell on you? You've been drinking. >> Oh [ __ ] >> Yeah, I have. >> You get it from that woman? >> No. >> You want to help mom or keep interrogating me? >> I didn't I didn't drink there. I had to drink. That steak made me sad. >> Let's go inside. >> You don't even understand. You don't even listen to me, Dad. I am I'm not going to bath. >> She told you how to prepare these. >> She did. Yes. Not Oh, [ __ ] I I forgot the ingredients. Not too hot water, but not boiling. No. Yeah. Oh, I No, dude. This the AR I hate RPGs. Use hot water, but not boiling. And then what else did she say? Oh god, I don't remember. All right. I [ __ ] had to slaughter that stupid pig. Oh, I had to do the side. Oh, it was mixed with hot water, right? And then there's no other I think that's it. I think we passed. Oh, [ __ ] I think it was two spoonfuls of herbs. [laughter] I don't I don't remember. I'm just making [ __ ] up. Oh, I'm not cooking nothing. But not too long. The sun's almost down. >> Yeah, that's my fault. >> I wanted to take you to the clearing later on. See if you remember which end of the sword to stab with. >> I did see your sweet time coming home. >> Soon as we give Esme the herbs, we'll have to get ready for mass. >> Put on [music] our Sunday best for the monsters. >> I'm sorry, Dad. I I I'm I'm That's my bad. And I'm drunk. [laughter] >> I think the bruise is all right to drink now. >> Good. >> I hope, dude. I I was not cooking [ __ ] with that. I just I made the second part up. >> No, not this again. How about I tell you a story? Yeah. About a man who doesn't know how to make medicinal medicinal service. >> Little angel up in the sky. >> Little angel up in the sky. >> Hey, there's my mom. >> Here, drink. I really hope I put the right ingredient. She could very easily die because of this and that would be on me. Let's go. >> Oh, wait. Hold on. >> Dad, if you want to talk about this, >> I got to connect. >> I don't. >> All right, follow me. Oh, now it's night time. Now the vampires come out to play. >> Time to go, Esme. >> No, [laughter] no, >> we've got to >> Oh, but she's talking. >> The children, >> they're safe at home. >> She is walking. I I feel like if we if we mess it up, maybe it wouldn't have worked. I think two spoonfuls of herbs might have been just enough. This game has punished me for worse decisions so far. Oh, hey, Vladimir. I guess I like I shouldn't feel this way but because I slaughtered the pig. But it really does feel like I'm walking into my own slaughtering. Oh, see that's the difference right there. We do not do that to pigs. We put them on tanning racks. >> What happened? Rumor is Gremla displaced the Kenyas. >> I did not know Sister Gremla. Well, [laughter] we exchanged meetings. Does she have to hang up there the whole mask? >> Confession's princess too was pained. >> Um, he's got vampire cloud eyes. >> May her passing be not in vain. Let it be a lesson to us all. >> [ __ ] vampires, man. >> We need a shepherd. >> Oh [ __ ] Oh [ __ ] Oh [ __ ] bro. Not Nope. I'm not saying [ __ ] [laughter] >> I know. >> You thought I was about to be the protagonist? [ __ ] that. For he drinks our blood. >> Hell no. >> But isn't the shepherd to be rewarded for his care?
