![]() ![]() ![]() It exists, I assume it was passable, I just can’t recall a single note. Musically the game is a dream – by which I mean it’s instantly forgettable once you look away from the screen. If it didn’t load so damn much, it would have been alright. ![]() It looks like someone accidentally poured vaseline onto the screen when in handheld mode, but the chibi-ish art style has a charm to it, and the vapid community has a thematically appropriate sterileness to it all. There is a lot to do, but finding it is a mess, and honestly, most of it isn’t really worth it. You can also pick up Commissions, which will be your bread and butter for generating cash early on. I am not exaggerating when I say a simple menu would have been preferable.Īlas, going outside is something you must do, and if you do it at certain times, you can find and complete quests, attend events, uncover new hashtags, and snap some groovy pictures to pad out your “Instalife” profile. There are shops to peruse and people to natter too, but it’s all locked behind loading screens that are a bit too long, and far too frequent to be ignored. Whilst not empty, it is far from interesting. My biggest gripe is the pointless inclusion of an open world. Where Youtuber Life 2 goes wrong is with all the added content that bogs down the game in some obvious, and some not-so-obvious ways. This kind of loop can be incredibly addictive, heck, it was addictive last time around. Those videos then earn you money, and you spend that money on upgrading equipment, or your living situation – rinse and repeat. The core gameplay from the original is still here – make videos by answering questions and splicing together clips. It’s just a shame it’s all incredibly grindy in the worst possible way. Story aside though, Youtubers Life 2 does have a fair amount to offer in terms of gameplay. It felt like an especially vacuous inclusion. The worst part is the Youtubers who make cameos don’t actually feel like the personalities they are portraying. It’s shoehorned fluff at best, and honestly, I stopped paying attention almost immediately. The story starts…interesting, then devolves into actual madness as famous IRL (that the lingo nowadays?) Youtubers pop by to discuss the intricacies of the Metaverse or something. If being a part of a recluse simulation was your idea of a good time, then Youtubers Life 2 might swing hard, but it might miss.ĭespite their differences, Youtubers Life 2 is a sequel to Youtubers Life – albeit a rather strange continuation. These games may share some similarities, but there are mountains of changes and additions here that more or less make its progenitor more of a distant relative – like a fourth cousin. Youtubers Life 2 encompasses this hectic lifestyle perfectly – but does that make it a fun game? One Step Forward, How Many Steps Back?įirst off, players of the first game, aptly named Youtubers Life, will not exactly be right at home here. Not to mention the constant need to get that next big payout. Between stifling the steady loss of viewership, engaging constantly with strangers on social media, going to events, and actually creating content, it’s a lot of work. The life of a Youtube star must be a perpetually stressful one. Disclaimer – A review code for Youtubers Life 2 was provided by Renaissance PR. ![]()
