So It’s been about a year since I released that big Immersive Sim video and looking back at it now it makes me ask: Where are all the immersive sims now??? This video is me taking a look at all the up and comers we knew about when the last ImSim video. Let’s see how the system shock remake, System Shock 3, VTMB 2, whatever that thing the Ken Levine and Ghost Story Games are doing right now, and everyone else too.
Here’s that talk Ken Levine did by the way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbehQ_X5T74
There also the matter of some new things that have came onto my radar since the ImSim video such as GloomWood, Graven and Peripeteia. All the up and comers have been fairly busy and there’s a couple demos you can paly right now! It seems like Immersive Sim might become an indie Dominated Genre in the near future!

Okay folks I'm putting this to bed. After getting a little under 10 hours in, cyberpunk 2077 is NOT an immersive sim. It's a very nice open world RPG that occasionally let's you do things in different ways but it frequently just railroads you into doing things the way the game wants you to do them (almost always a shootout) and there's no real emergent gameplay; everything you can do was intended by the devs and it's very hard, if not impossible to make your own way in game without following a predetermined path.
Tencent, yay, give them even more 😅
Watched strat-edgy his Review for cpunk77 and nope, it's not a immersive sim
It's good but not in a immersive sim way
Life is an immersive sim.
And we're stuck in dev hell.
and here I thought Charlatan wonder actually was the cat
Deus Ex Mankind Divided made a lot of money, they just expected more and so the game failed to hit their goal the sequel was scrapped. They could save themself now returning to it.
Scam Citizen sponsorship? Duuuuuuuuuuude
23:58 is that a deus ex medkit
System Reshock keeps changing engines. That’s a terrible sign.
Remember scorn?
guys what's the game during the anti sponsor section ? thanks !
I don’t know if any of you would be interested but, I’m actually working on an immersive sim somewhat inspired by Dishonored. If any of you would like to check it out I’d really appreciate it 🙂 I have some devlogs on my channel if you want to see progress.
Wiss =/= with 😉
BIKER SANTA BIKER SANTA
honestly the one game I'm looking forward to the most rn is Gloomwood
No, the issue was (16:00) that Mankind Devided was such a stinker that did not sell well. They shat in the faces of fans and players and thought they could sell tons of DLCs, Addons or Sequels for hat unsatisfying half finished game.
I oive your videos and everything you cover on Immersive sims.
I've watched your immersive sim videos so many times lol
I had an epileptic attack playing system shock 2 so I hope that I can play more of this world in the future, awesome game (no joke, the game was so great and I drank so much coffe that I had fucking seizures)
@charlatan wonder Doesn't Prey send you down a predetermined path? That's an immersive sim
Fat Pussy.
the cat is cute
I wasn't aware that CW looks a lot like a certain person obsessed with completion of games.
I heard Cyberpunk is a good sim 🤣
I already given up on VTMB2 since the publisher decide to go full SJW, lead director was fired and they decide to add battle royale in it .
the way your holding your cat down like that is pretty weird ngl
As a “preeeeface”? What’re untouched Canadian now?
starbound is a pretty good rpg if you install the frackin universe mod
