What is Blue Prince and why is it hyped?
Hello fellow gamers and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. Blueprints burst onto the gaming scene with some truly incredible hype. Game of the year, best puzzle game ever, best game someone has ever played. The reviews and hype reached a frenzied level, but are they true? Is this game equal to the likes of Portal 2, The Witness, and Outer Wilds?
Who are the hosts discussing Blue Prince?
Or was this an internet frenzy that didn't quite match the game itself? Well, we're about to find out because we've played it and we're here to let you know what we think. But first, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me... He loves the title screen and the intro screen, but he's not sure what all the other fuss is about. It's Ryan.
You know, being called out by Santar was not the best day for me. I'm like, oh, come on, man. How are you going to call me out like that? Just to be fair, I have put, if not the same amount or more time than Josh into this game.
So same amount. We are both sitting at 14 hours. So Ryan, Ryan did absolutely play this game an awful lot. Yes.
Mine was just in one day is all. Yeah.
Ace is like, oh man, is it me? Am I the guy that didn't play this game? Yeah. Well, we're going to find out because joining us, you'll find him asking chat GPT how to tell which box is true and which is false. And he never knew dartboard math could be so hard. It's ace.
I'll have, you know, the only puzzle I could get right was the box puzzle. Thank you very much. It was the only one that every single time was like, Oh, one of us tells nothing but truth. One of us tells nothing but lies.
Oh man. Yeah. Yeah, I remember this. This was in the labyrinth, man. And I never knew quite how people figured that out. You know, it's like the two doors and it's like one door always tells the truth. One door is lies. And then she's like, what would that door say? And then she figures it out. And I'm like, I don't I don't get this. Yeah. But what I do know is I have a 33% chance of getting that stupid box puzzle right. Oh, man. Guys, we're going to be talking about Blueprints. I mean, this game came out of nowhere, dude. I mean, nowhere. It burst onto the gaming scene with people saying this is one of the best games I have ever played. People saying this game ranks up there with the likes of some of the greats.
There were people that said, dude, I don't know that I've ever played a game like this before. And when you hear that kind of talk as gamers, we kind of go like, what? What? What are you talking about over there? And it just so happened that it fell into that perfect moment where at least I was very hungry for like a good puzzle game. And the fact that this game had roguelike elements and stuff like that to it made it sound very, very interesting. As we know, sometimes internet hype doesn't quite match what the game itself is. And so we all said, you know what? Let's play Blueprints. Let's see what the hype is about. And then let's come talk about it. Because I want to know if this is all true.
Because if so, oh my goodness, you're talking some of my favorite puzzle games ever. And if it's not, then what the heck is wrong with all you people that are saying this is one of the best games I've ever played? So we're going to be breaking all that down, but we do have a little bit of housekeeping that we need to get to. And man, my favorite, if we're going to call it a chore because it's housekeeping, my favorite chore in the world is thanking new people for supporting this podcast. So a huge thank you. Huge thank you to Jagged Sun and You Meet in a Tavern for both signing up for rare status to help support this podcast. Both of you rock. Jagged Sun comes in, makes an enshrouded server for everybody because a lot of people on our server are playing enshrouded. You meet in a tavern. I love that name because that is 100% a fan of Dungeons and Dragons. Yeah. If I've ever known a D&D player in my life, that's one there. So thank you to both of you.
And for anybody else that might be considering it, we only exist because of the support from our listeners. I don't know if people know this, but there's a pretty good bit of expenses that go into hosting D&D. a podcast, websites, you know, the games that we cover and stuff like that.
