+Gamal Elkordy Yeah, like the Devs putting the Puppet dangling in Catherine's room and her increasingly impatience with Simon along with her urgency to launch the ARK and a subtle omission of information has no way whatsoever contributed to us as Players playing Simon to have doubts at the only sane robot in the game other than the Simons. Still, it was a very good Red Herring early on in the game which I no doubt these idiots forgot about the puppet.
J. Louie Dinorog What puppet? You mean the doll you model like a body? That's for art and anatomy. And she wants to launch the ark because she doesn't know if the real Catherine actually did it or not. It's the last hope for humanity and it's all they have left. And the only information Pat has found was that she's "Easily manipulated" but if he or anyone else actually thought about what that means, they would realize she's like that because she just takes the fall for everything bad like the suicides because her ARK project caused them. She's not manipulated nor is she manipulating you. She just doesn't understand how stupid Simon is.
***** But i don't find any of it suspicious. Like it was for 10 seconds and then I remembered the suicide thing and how she just takes the blame and makes excuses so the project can continue. Plus the scan of her is before all the suicides and the document calling her manipulative. If you think WAU corrupted her that's different and possibly viable until you find out the goo on the chip is just structure gel and not WAU.
***** We don't all have to think the same way. And maybe dozens of people were wrong or didn't think about the date catherine was scanned compared to the file
You know, the fact that you play a brain-chip stuffed into a small camera device jammed into the neck-stump of a human body makes this game really similar to the dating section of the Sonic Dreams Collection.
+TTKB She, actually, The huge angler fish you know of? Those are the females. The males are puny, and their only lot on life is to bite onto the female angler fish and then dissolve into the female until it's just basically a pair of fishy gonads that release sperm to fertilize the eggs and junk. Welcome to the ocean deep. Enjoy your stay.
+Usagi Hasano Anglers are always politically correct. Perfect beings; not subscribing to the propaganda of the patriarchy _or_ matriarchy. Fish balls for life, yo.
This reminds me of Narcosis, that shitstorm game they played. Also THIS STRESSES THE FUCK OUT OF ME. God damn walking into black abyss. Shitting my ass and feverishly hugging every light source, doing 720°'s every time. Jesus fuck the ocean.
Actually, that may have been a wise decision, I heard that thing has lots of tentacles down there, and smells like fish... Get it, fish and ..the ocean and ahhhhh ..I'll just leave now.
I imagine it a lot more feverish and incoherent. "Persona! Perfect, see what i mean? In the database whoa whoa whoa. The freecompany. Persona! I don't trust it. Oh god! Persona! Are we even playing as Persona! Psychomantis? I know psychology Personaaaaa!"
+AfroMetalMizu No no, better. Have you seen the video "Pat's RE4 puzzle failure" or something? THAT'S the face. I don't know where it's from originally but it's just him looking like a donger.
We now return to President Miyazaki's The Abyss! If you look to your right you will see the primordial serpent Kaathe, while his motivations are not clear, what is clear is that he seems to very much enjoy trolling humans.
+Christian Blaise You can nuke it is you can find a dry place to plant a suitcase nuke,though you'd have to detonate it really quick before the wau take it over.
Jesus, how the fuck did you guys not recognise the voice and picture of Catherine... It's not like she's the only character you've had any major interaction with...
+Cowinspace Never usually yell at my screen when a RU-vidr does something stupid, but when they just put down the photo I yelled "It's Catherine you fucking idiots."
+Cowinspace I'm also here like You'd think they would have learned to check every available option of things to do when using a computer. Not quickly press the first, see that it's a bunch of logs, and then back out and totally ignore the door locks
+Ryan Kelly You'd think after them doing that a million times people would learn to stop thinking that they should think to the check every available option... But maybe that is too much thinking?
+Tiberius Hrafn-Úlfur He didn't go through a door in the middle level, which he looked at and closed because he though it was where he came from. He needs to go there to progress. I can't wait for the next episode, where he'll spend 10 minutes rubbing his face against every wall before noticing he never went through that door.
You know what I just realized might be a major reason why I like this part of the game? It reminds me so much of Penumbra. I remember that was the first game I knew them by and thought it was really neat. The absolute darkness, the industrial lighting and everything is making me nostalgic for it.
+James Nakis Look at your expectations, now look back to Pat. Now look back to your expectations; back to Pat. Pat is not your expectations, he's flipping you off. Now look at the ground; back to Pat. What happened to your expectations? Pat fucked them, ANT THERE'S NOT A GOD DAMNED- oh he fucked up...
-Sees giant swarm of angler fish heading towards him- Pat : Oohhhh Noooo....ohhhhhhh... Pat is the kind of person who would have poked a wendigo with a stick in Until Dawn.
+Lord Viscount Edward Horatio Spears II AM was pretty good at preserving whats left of humanity too. But yea, I could see the intent behind the WAU being totally different.
+Lord Viscount Edward Horatio Spears II Yeah pretty much this, it's basically an evolutionary algorithm on steroids. With that said I don't think Wau is actively conscious or self aware in any sense, when you get down to it it's just a process that's just executing and nothing more.
omg, I'm so fucking tired of people missing the cool instruction of the giant whale/shark monster that comes into view while walking down in the abyss. Every single damn LPer looks the wrong way and misses it. That aside, the speed at which Pat beat the area with the diving suit monster makes me think he's cheatin' again. He skipped everything and went straight for the exit.
Christ, man... I have a pretty hectic fear of deep water, and it's been making me uneasy from the start, but since they went into the abyss... I've never been this genuinely uncomfortable watching an LP before. I'm getting some legit goings-on in my gut right now, lol
Don't you love it when people ignore information handed to them and just run off to repeatedly bash against whatevers available to bash against? Personally I really like structure and having an idea of what I'm doing but seeing other people act like they're capable of only retaining one piece of information at any given time makes me feel better about my own memory. Actually that may be a little harsh, it's not really Pat's fault after all he's basically a senior citizen and as I understand you start to forget things when you get old.
I like how at this point in the game, the developers went "You know what's scarier than twisted abominations made by evil science? Actual deep-sea wildlife!" And they weren't wrong.
How the fuck have both LPers im watching of this game managed to get past the omicron and tau monster so easily i got my ass destroyed by them so hard im mad
+Major Monotone They also reproduce by having the marginally smaller male bite the female, and fusing into her skin, slowly becoming a part of her body and sharing her circulatory system. A female can have more than 12 males attached to her at a time, all making babies with her.
Being unfathomably deep underwater, crammed into tight spaces, everywhere you look there are spiders, and a fucking ANGLER FISH IS HUNTING YOU!?!?! This is *literally* my nightmare.
To be fair to the WAU, you missed the part when it mentions that all of those fish were completely wiped out 100% after the impact. The WAU didn't poison them, it just resurrected them.
+gnihton Let's not get too carried away, they both clearly lost the staring contest at the same time, but since they both blinked at the same time, neither one saw the other lose
13:50 You guys fell for the oldest trick in the book. Literally, that fish is probably an ancient species as far as we know and has been doing that for millions to billions of years.
Cadiz and Lisbon are cities in Spain and Portugal, respectively, and probably where the mainland operations for Pathos are based. Or were, at least, before the comet fucked Earth's shit up.
Alright we've got the underwater Chinese ghost base, the underwater Japanese robot base, taking bets on what the next underwater base is gonna contain.
prediction - the big orange thing in that room is a service lift to bring down objects, which you then put on that machine to make it work, and they are just super dumb and ignore it for like 30 minutes
I think a Soma X Gunslinger Girl could make a good fanfic. I'm still holding out for a Deep Rising-style giant monster that drinks the black goo from its prey.
I too can make an obligatory, easy quip about Pat being a murderer when his choices to d-sync others in this game are neither right or wrong in the first place, and judge his moral standards, thus no longer being a joke and criticising his character based on a VIDYA
Wow this entire game I've not been spooked but the abyss is prime spooks, terrible techno monsters will never be as bad as how awful and filled with nightmare creatures the deep sea is
Yeah..I expected Pat to fall for the Angler Fish's lure...cue benny-hill. Pat running away from the divesuit monster, cue benny-hill again. I honestly didn't think Pat's stubby legs would have been fast enough to get to the safe area...that said, Pat didn't even try all of the radio channels when they got to the comm console. Also, how the heck did they mistake another woman's voice for catherine's when the audio buffer log has catherine in it? Next comes the heaviest Moral Dilemma for Simon, while Pat's murder spree is still ongoing.
+Mark Johnson After that crime fighting dog character voice actor turned out to be a huge criminal, I wouldn't be to surprised if Toucan Sam's "Follow your knows" had something to do with cocaine or Tony turned out to be a huge serial murderer
+Josh Perez Cadiz I get a little, because he couldn't figure out how to pronounce it, but he got Lisbon. How the fuck have you never heard of Lisbon. I couldn't even put it on a fucking map and I at least know it's a city.
+Josh Perez And to further complete a little more your response, Cádiz is a city and port in southwestern Spain, and the capital of the province of Cádiz. When they play serious games they seem to do it on "autopilot". They are too worried about cracking jokes, making wise remarks, references and filling the silence blurting whatever they can ( I get it, it is their gimmick after all). This makes them lose track of a lot of stuff going on in the game, they are not immersed at all. It makes it both funny and infuriating at the same time.
