I was a tester for this game just before its release, and I even have a sealed copy floating around somewhere. I can say that Dyak was likely one of the primary causes of this game's downfall. Trying to get bugs acknowledged or worked on was one of the most frustrating experiences. Dyak himself had a bug filed in the system that said "the game is too good and perfect," and every day we thought about closing it with "Cannot duplicate." He was so full of himself that it was impossible for him to admit that the game had flaws. It's tragic to see a game fail like this because it had so much potential. The futuristic Norse mythology theme was unique and visually appealing, although the best visuals were hidden in places that could only be reached by breaking the camera. Now that most copies have been sold, it's interesting to think about the things that me and the other testers experienced that will likely only be known by a few, if anyone. For example, did you know that there is epic armor in this game? The red-tier armor is character-specific and provides unique benefits with a full set. It was also purposely programmed to have a lower chance of dropping for your current class, encouraging players to play with others and trade armor. However, it wasn't even the best armor, despite being the rarest and meant to be the most powerful. In fact, there is a set of lower-tier armor with many slots for runes that allow for even more powerful armor builds. Note that neither type of armor was meant to be seen until the second or third playthrough, after about 50 hours of play, far more than most players would invest in the game. It is interesting to see people put out videos about the game though. This one is well put together and goes over a good deal of the dev cycle information.

When I heard about Too Human, I was super bummed it was only coming out on 360 cause I had a PS3. Then the reviews came and ohhh boy. Everyone hated this game.

They used source code to make it that wasn't legally theirs. That's what "went wrong" (If they'd altered it significantly, fine and fair enough under current IP laws, but they didn't) It's the reason this game and X-Men: Destiny are not ones you can find anymore. They were all destroyed, because they legally had to be. They also bound the attack controls to the camera movement buttons, as far as I played it on consoles. Which frankly was very, VERY foolish. I don't think I even got past the first boss, or if I did it was by the skin of my teeth. No bears involved. I didn't play much beyond that at any rate. I did think the class system was interesting, but I couldn't get very far into the game with such borked controls. It should also be noted that while the Valkyrie respawn thing was interesting as a concept - in the Lore it's very flawed (Their role is to choose worthy heroes; not Gods - as they are technically ranked UNDER the Aesir) and since the controls were that borked, I saw them a LOT more often than I wanted to have to. See it once or twice a level and it's like "Oh, that's cool..." See it about fifteen to twenty times and it's more "Fuck me... again?!?" [It doesn't really help the player FEEL like a god, when half the time I want to smack something I'm fighting the camera to do it; and I end up face planted looking at a set of shiny wings, because the developers couldn't or wouldn't stick with a more traditional controller scheme]

It also showed the true colors of Epic Games. In the lawsuit, there's tons of statements about how Epic was selling basically a non-existent product - Unreal Engine 3 wasn't done until Gears of War shipped, basically, but was sold to studios as a complete way, WAY before that. It left many studios stumbling, having to create their own engine tech on top of Unreal despite just having paid for a full solution. And Epic hasn't changed a bit.

I enjoyed Too Human. I played through multiple times with each character class but mained the cyber commando. Never did complete a five piece red set though. My favorite part about the game was the dialogue of the NPC soldiers who were your backup. They call each other by name. They call out threats to one another. They fight hard, try to keep up each others spirits, mourn fallen comrades. The wolves and the bears have good back and forth chatter. By the time you get to the end of the last level they are all dead. You as the main character of the game are a god. Your success is all but assured and so you play your way through and are eventually victorious. After playing many times it seems easy but if you listen to the chatter of the soldiers it makes you aware of the great toll this campaign inflicts on them. They serve to emphasize the stakes. In the last level there is a cutscene and it has always stood out to me as just a great storytelling moment. One of your last wolf soldiers is dragging his dying buddy away from the undead horde while firing his rifle one handed. A Valkyrie descends towards them. He sees her coming and still firing with one arm the soldier tries to hoist his friends body up to her and tells her to take him. As she arrives she pushes the body aside and grabs the lone survivor who starts struggling and shouting something like "No! No! Not me take him!" because he doesn't want the body of his pal left behind in Helheim. He is the one she is here for though and so they ascend. Beautiful.

I find it kinda humorous that they described working on the MGS: The Twin Snakes and Eternal Darkness as keeping the studio away from their "Dream Project", given that those games are the things that the studio is looked at most fondly, while Too Human, that very "Dream Project", and everything that came with it was ultimately what killed the studio. Sometimes, it's the things we do when we're not chasing our dream that becomes our legacy, not the dream itself.

Of course it's up to you to decide what sponsorship deals you engage with and share with us. Of course. But this time I'dl like to ask that you read why this franchise is controversial so you can decide if you want to keep this sponsorship or not. Not many people are aware of the topic I'm talking about. Once you do, it's your choice, obviously, but it's getting difficult to spread awareness of a human rights issue when it's been weaponized against those who suffer from it the most, minorities. Thanks for your videos, I'll respectfully skip this one.

Played thru it fully with a friend. It had some issues and grindy gameplay, but some of the end-game type content felt fun, once you got better gear and a decent build running. At the same time the quality sort of took a nosedive. Game could have used some more finetuning, perhaps another redesign. There was potential there.

This kind of malfeasance is why Publishers interfere with Developers, this isn't a defense of the Publisher/Developer model. But there is a reason why it exist.

Frankly, I'd not heard of this before. Which makes the bizarre story of this games development even more shocking

It was a pretty big deal in the early 2000’s, pretty sure Xbox gives this game away for free on its store.

Growing in this era, I remember this disaster too well. And seeing prior versions of the game, makes you wish to play the wacky Gamecube era version.

I remember playing Too Human, having picked it up a couple years after release used. It wasn't an awful game and there was fun to be had in it, but it definitely did not live anywhere near up to the hype for the game.

Some baffling gameplay decisions were made in Too Human. Mapping sword swings to the right analog stick was just an awful idea in 2008.

You must be really young, because this was very common during the PS1/Saturn era, with the likes of Phantasmagoria (8 CDs), Black Dahlia (also 8), Riven (5) or Fear Effect (4) and on PC it was sometimes even more sever. Everquest 2 came on 10 Discs, GTA 5 on 8 DVDs, Unreal Tournament 2004 had 6 Discs and so on. Of course all of this is nothing compared to the madness of the Amiga days, were for example Biiing came on 19 floppy discs.
