Reminds me of the whole redwoods deal from Ride to Hell, you know the redwoods of Canada that most certainly don't exist in California. I'm pretty sure my comment on that is what started the whole "Pat is wrong" deal or at least what I choose to believe
This literally made it so clear to me it was about mega lesbians and woolie kept saying friends forever and besties so now I have to assume woolie kisses matt and pat and tells them he never wants to leave because that's what best friends do
I'm sure Woolie is just oblivious to obvious signs of affection from lesbians and bisexuals, considering the fact he turned down a 3 some many years ago.
They're both pretty awful at geography but I didn't realize it was that bad. I can forgive thinking Wallachia is a fake place since it's just a region and not a country/state/province and it's in eastern Europe. But come on, Maine is RIGHT THERE. You couldn't get closer to Canada outside of Point Roberts.
@@arn1345 Funnily enough, the Wallachia thing nettles me too. Thanks to Brian Lumley's Necroscope, that place-name has been in my head for almost a decade.
You guys have too many states, it's just messy, you can't expect anyone to remember them all. Clean up your shit and cut that down to a dozen or so and then we'll consider learning them.
Big shout outs to Swery for being super rad and thoughtful. Fun gorey platforming aside, this game covers matters that I would be surprised to see any Western game makers handle with tact and respect, let alone a 45 year old Japanese one.
Thanks for actually being subtle about the subject. The other comment section had absolutely no chill and spoiled this for me. -.- Would've been nice to experience it first hand.
I have no idea what exactly triggered it, but hearing the 'ancient long forgotten language' of this island off the coast of Maine had me in tears. I love Swery
For a made-up fantasy language, there's nothing odd about it. As far as I can tell it's gibberish anyway. But 'Lapo' is a Spanish word and Maine is buried in Native American, French, British, Irish and Scandinavian history. Being from the New England area, it just hit my funny bone the first time I heard it.
Friend of mine was going for the plat on X HD a couple months ago, we took turns but neither of us got higher than 161 that day. Some bullshit I tell ya hwhat
lol PAMaster my dude you're not fooling anyone. Em. Aster? Really? If you're gonna be a creep at least use some originality to come up with your fake name. And no one's getting fooled by your voice. Looking forward to seeing you on an inevitable police report when you start lashing out at people.
@@taylortierney6542 Nah, I'm a muslim woman. Also the guy you're talking to is a neofascist who was banned from the SomethingAwful forums after he went to bat for a pedophile called Shmorky and his defenders. Pretty notorious predator. I'm just warning and informing people.
This just in Matt sleeps in an oxygen tent which he believes gives super powers, and Pat joined the Yakuza because "he thought it would be cool", and lost a finger not do Yakuza related negligence but to a cigar cutter accident, and later we look into if Woolie really is a Rasta, we go to the streets to the guy selling CDs that made this claim.
@@joinsideke I hate the lack of logic for regeneration in superheroes. You eat your arm, to gain less energy than is in the arm, to regrow the arm - which will consume more than 100% of the energy you took in by eating it??? Conservation of energy isn't popular in comics.
@@BeNotNormal the game never said "the ancient inhabitants of 'Maine'", Matt and Woolie did, the game simply established the location of the island and then talked about _the island's_ ancient inhabitants. It phrased it exactly how a textbook or Wikipedia article would. There's nothing odd about that.
So I played this game and the best way to sum it up is. Man this was a nice little normal intro, sweet, and has a bit of a Braid feel to it. Enter's Moose Doctor... Ah there's SWERY.
Okay fucken what? I don't know anything about this game. It's by SWERY? and I never expected to see the word "ryona" describing any game on this channel...
this may sound a bit backwards but stay with me. lightning bolts arent actually that deadly because they dont carry a ton of amps its more of the damage you receive from the voltage, i.e. melted skin/organs that people succumb to that is if they survive the initial heart attack. that being said its fairly unrealistic for someone to burn after being hit by lightning its not that its not hot enough its just that its not a long enough ignition to start a fire in the cases of humans
That seems pretty fucking deadly to me m8. If I go around pushing people lightly off cliffs, I'm sure I'm the dangerous one for not pushing with "a ton of force" even if I'm not the direct COD
Overall its a fun game, like an easier limbo with a better story and that vibe a westaboo in love with david lynch can make, but boy people trying to be coy about the 'twist' reveal spoiled it so hard by trying not to.
Aw sna- (No part one) Aw man For the record this game tackles some pretty heavy stuff and handles stuff so well that.. honestly it's really surprising given Japanese games do a terrible job with the sort of thing this covers. It's definitely a lot more than "Horror Lesbian Dismemberment"
big nut I'm glad lets players are a thing, The Missing came out and holy hell it even snuck under the Swery fanbase and fan stuff for it was dead for like two weeks. Then we got a huge burst in people talking about it and fanart and I'm just glad a lot of people are getting into it now.
Yo, this game is super good and everyone should check it out. Watch a playthrough if you don't feel like forking over the money, but I feel like it deserves the support. SWERY and his team did a remarkable job of handling the stuff this game gets into, and it deserves a lot of recognition for that, as well as just being a compelling story in general. Please please check a look for yourself if any part of this video had you interested.
I don't know if I'm more happy that there is no part 1 because it'll force people to buy the game and support SWERY if they want to see more or if I'm disappointed because I'd want to see their take on the game and have it be seen by people who would otherwise never buy the game. It's just an incredible game that deserves way more attention than it has right now.
Trail of Tears. Well, that was for southeast U.S., but that kinda stuff went on for quite some time to culturally destroy the various Native American peoples. All that we have left is what's dug up from artifacts that have survived the times, and stories from reservations and historians. And even then that's still only a fraction of what was lost. J.J. Macfield can only remember her own memories.
"Do you think there is an X-Man where your power is you die and you suffer but then you can just bring your body back?" Yeah. He's called Wolverine. Also Deadpool but he technically is not an X-Man, but he wants to be (when it suits his purposes)!
Really good to see that Swery's keeping his tradition of dialogue that sounds like it was written by someone who has heard of the concept of human interaction in theory but never actually experienced it for themselves.
when i think of new england my mind immediately goes to " bumfuck town with puritans wearing thise weird pilgrim hats and are probably cannibals" (granted i know little tonothing about american culture or new england for that matter)
@@BeNotNormal Yes, but specifically saying "Midwestern America" is either incorrect or redundant. It is the midwest as in the center of the western hemisphere. It is not the midwestern portion of america or even the americas.
all this outrage, you know people outside of the usa dont know the entire layout of your country right? its a big fuckin country. bet all the americans poking fun of this dont know the layout of canada
While being burned is agonizing, I’m told that once your nerve endings have all burned away that you actually don’t feel much beyond heat and pressure on points of your body. What’s stranger to think about is that if your still left in fire, parts of your body just shut down as they char and melt away.
It´s like Stan, the used boat-seller, from Monkey Island. He wore plaid and because of the limitation of the engine, the plaid-pattern didn´t move in the first two games. Later, Monkey Island 3+, they could have make the plaid-pattern move more realistic, but they chosed to keep that strange strange non-moving behaviour of the pattern, as an homage and a Meme.
Seeing that concept art of JJ looking super cute made it even more heartbreaking to see her get horribly injured/mutilated. Why ya gotta do this to me, Swery? Or more particularly Matt for getting her hurt so much.
the phoned in video outtro really sucks and there's basically no reason to put up a video if you were that disinterested. this is entirely the angry response of someone who appreciates the full context of the game's story and how it takes like a whole hour to introduce puzzle mechanics and collectibles to you before it gives you literally anything to go off of. (and those collectibles giving you bonus story)
I couldn't help but compare how these characters talk with LiS. Those texts looks like how normal people would actually text, and when they say stuff like "suxorz" you can tell it's ironic unlike "hella" and all that cringy shit they said.
This game is well worth your money, people... Don't wait for a discount... Swery deserves all the praise in the world for how this game handles its subject matter...
Thank you for playing this game! ♥ I forgot a new SWERY game was coming out and I didn't know it was about an Invincible Body Horror Lesbian, so I bought it Friday & played it twice over the weekend, it's way better than I even expected and I expected it to be good
This game is way more interesting that I thought. The phone and especially the messages were the last thing I would've expected. But then again - I totally should, though
Wait, Woolie prefers Apple to Android? Oh gosh, how could I have been so wrong? And to think, I thought it was wrong and childish for Matt and Pat to try and make a haunting happen on Woolie, how little did I know how right they were for it.
Gonna say this now; this is next to Deadly Premonition for having the best story, but way more affecting. You'll see, especially if you get the donuts ;)
This game is wonderful. I highly recommend it to everyone to check out and try to play for yourself. Swery goes places most don't with this game with a wonderful message and handles the themes with great care, And it's got plenty of that charming Swery weirdness! Having finished the game myself, I'd love to see this turn into a full LP.
