I will never forget watch sodapoppin play this game live on twitch. One of my core memories of game watching

So you're saying Vinushka x Enki x Nosramus is a guy-guy(?)-guy(?) 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 throuple that desires a solarpunk environmental/technological future in this grimdark world? All the while Enki stands there serving 💅 (knowledge) like a Timeless, Enlightened diva 💋? Sign me up, lol!

So sad this wasn't in my subscription box when it uploaded 😢 but thank you for answering my questions! I highly doubt I'd get super popular, but I think it's always good to have acquaintances who are also creators when existing on youtube. Congratulations on 15k!!!

Flaws aside, this was THE FUNNIEST game I’ve ever played I don’t know if all of its comedy was intentional but my gof was it hilarious.

Hm, yes, very wise.

What do you think of the theory that Kaiser is a ghoul!Legarde who has sat on the throne and ascended?

The Enki Ankararian Center for Kids Who Can't Read Good and Wanna Learn to Do Other Stuff Good Too

Matt got written poorly because he's a black guy. Devastated on his behalf.

Yeah, I definitely don't agree with your super negative view of Logic. 🤷 I don't see it and its turning on as good or bad, but just another necessary evolution in the cycle of human existence. It's no more "bad" for humanity than the Enlightenment or the Industrial Revolution were.

40:00 Ehhh... I'm fairly confident that Legarde still sits on the Golden Throne after being resurrected as a ghoul by Darce. I can't imagine he would consider himself divine any other way. Especially with him still being so physically close to his original goal. 🤷 I also don't think The Yellow King's powers are explainable by him just "being a resurrected ghoul".

This game is really dark Like, i cant see shi . I turned the brightness up all the way and i still cant tell whats going on

12:35 THAT IS GENIUS! Id love a game like that because theres so much you could do with it. Theres so many possible hazards you could implement through monsters and each run could be where you try to keep the town alive as long as possible with the monsters and their order being randomized. From night only monsters that require a curfew to lovecraftian horrors that you need to keep out of sight and the various elemental monsters each with their own counters. You could hire different types of guards whether military for zombies or priests for vampires and werewolves and you need to keep then protected from the monsters that they aren't equipped to deal with to keep expenses down. The game could be a rouge-like, a horror game, a resource management game, a town builder, a tower defense or simulator game. OR ALL OF THEM! Amazing idea to just toss out there and move on immediately

When Josh said "It's Dawning Time" and Untiled all over everyone, I cried.

first persona 3 music now fear and hunger on your video about a supermassive game? you're pretty cool tf

Coraline Music 💕

This is such a good video. It would be so nice to have a postcolonial paradise!

I'm sorry, but where was Abigail abused in this game?? There was no hint of abuse or an insinuation of it!!!

Laura and Max never hit Silas in the beginning. U clearly see Silas run into the road and Max swerve off the road and into the trees missing him completely. Not to mention there is no damage to Max's car when he gets out to inspect. So how does Silas get injured???

Loved the video, loved hearing all this. If the information age with logic becomes the cannon ending i think one of the elightened souls would be a Francis Fukuyama type of character. One who might claim wisdom would be declaring end of history type if thw next game takes place just after a cold war and logic being used as an internet of sorts. Just taking a stab in the dark. Only cause how often i heard it discussed while growing up in the later 90s. I guess would assume that vindland became a power then also . Huh. Hmm

See I thought Betel was a reference to Betel leaves/nut, a minor stimulant often chewed by older folks in southeast asia that leaves red stains on the mouth. My brain is turned off for tonight so I am not going to make a jump to "what does this mean" but something something, betel is chewed socially by elders, the collection of knowledge in a casual verbal tradition while at the same time leaving a stain, which I suppose represents either ink or the permanence and increased mark that knowledge leaves on someone as they learn more. Is that anything?

There are 0 instances of pre-xtian germanics referring to a "soul".

Souls aren't real

"Termina is a bit more tasteful with how it handles sensitive content" Yeah, not as much sex or R🍇-word 'cept for the Genie I guess. Random ass enemy NPC that just appears to turn your prostate into a punching bag.

You think F&H happens in London?, clearly is a South America simulator, you're now more Latino. Don't believe me?, what about the Skeletons?, clearly Venezuelan people and as a Venezuelan myself that is real representation, or the Lizard people?, clearly Chilean people, they are already demons who speak their own language no one understands and as someone who when to Chile I can confirm most of their citizens are like that. And the guards?, clearly the weakest Brazilian males. Great video and greetings from the dungeon.

Me who cosplayed as Ashley: OH. Okay then.

Just found your channel today- if the machine-mind of RUclips has any sense of justice it will promote you more. This is my second video of yours and the sheer depth and quality of your work, with the effort in cultural contexts and periphery research supplementing your content is genuinely high calibre stuff. I think this makes your very fine work stand out and I will be watching a lot more.

I dont think the world of funger is too limited to real world history. Its main theology is about a love of opposite primordial forces instead of an eternal war between them like the mannichean premise has been adopted by christianity. While it does reflect alot of real world history, i dont think the irl nazis had a bdsm whip officer commanding a meat tank while trying to get the internet to start working

25:34 I would say this isn't entirely true. Doing a 1 to 1 comparison is difficult, because both the god hand and apostles have a connection to new gods but, The god hand might be closer to the new gods. In the berserk manga it's already confirmed that the god hand is a group of entities that cycle between new members. And just like the new gods, the god hand secretly play/influence the world and has slight worship that can rise/fall. You need to remember that also that the god hand & the apostle both have an ascension process and both are transformed based on what misdeeds/events occurred in their past life before transformation. So the apostle quality of "new god" isn't unique to them. The old god in berserk would be closer to the concept that was shared in the forbidden/weird cannon chapter, the "idea of evil". -As it is an entity that live in the abyss. -It is a concept that can never go away -It ties it self to a basic human nature -It too plays with humans and manipulates the events of them. -The god hand don't work for the entity (like how new gods don't serve the old gods)

31:09 Where’d kant write that qoute? It feels abit at odds with his insistence that only god can achieve true intellectual intuition while created beings require concepts to mediate between their understanding and intuitions. According to Kant, god’s thinking anything would literally create that thing. Thus making it correct. Factually, not necessarily at all ethically. Trying to google the qoute revealed to me the bizzaro world of qoute websites. Why on earth would anyone care about a pile of decontextualized unsourced information? Because a famous guy once said it? To qoute the great Fred Jones: “I think Coolsvile sucks!”

AHHH!! I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH!!! I really enjoy how you talk about this game and it’s characters. I especially loved your analysis of Enki! His character arc is so wonderful to me, and I enjoy how you described it. Made me realize some things about his character that I never put the pieces together fully for. Like how his serving of the Old Gods has alienated him from humanity and the tangible world. Which is very Lovecraftian in a way! Nothin like an eccentric intellectual who loses himself in his studies of the occult and esoteric. Its made especially good through his character arc and how it’s resolved in him reconnecting with humanity through Nosramus. Weirdly heartwarming, in a way. It’s peak… this whole video is PEAK!!!!

Nick was transforming into a werewolf, a.k.a a monster, before the creepy moments took place. I don't think he was a bad guy before that, but I honestly can't remember, but also haven't played the game myself.

Emily is also the same person who's ungrateful; accused Matt of trying to kill her, which is completely untrue and he can even die because of that; is only useful in ONE scene, yet NEVER lifts a finger in trying to save or protect her friends; she didn't bother to tell Matt that she was going to see Mike; treated Matt as her slave; accused Ashley of wanting her to die, which was NEVER true in the first place, AND, if both of them survive in the end, Emily actually pushes Ashley when the Wendigoes are chasing them; shows NO remorse or care for Matt whether he lives or dies, UNLESS he calls her out on being a selfish, ungrateful little bitch; starts a fight with Jess for NO reason, and many other instances that make her insufferable to say the least. Why ANYONE would want to support or root for or love, or whatever, her, I have absolutely no idea. She's just a bitch for NO reason, and the fact that she only realizes that when ANOTHER character says it, instead of figuring it out for herself, really says a lot about her. And her starting a fight with Jess CLEARLY shows some insecurities. And the only time she seems to care AT ALL, apart from what was said about Matt, is her saying "sorry you're still missing" after finding a missing poster of Hannah/Beth--I can't remember who, sorry--or telling Sam to be careful. THAT'S IT. Emily is by far the WORST and most annoying character IN THE ENTIRE GAME. And her being a badass in the mines does not, in ANY way make up for her bullshit WHATSOEVER. She's the only character that I would purposely try to kill.

lol the way he predicted the fixing generators in the casting of frank stone

An enlightened soul in a post-Logic world? I mean, if the people who currently lead most of the so-called Western Rules-Based Order are any indication...

I've rewatched Until Dawn game playthroughs several times, but I feel like now is the first time I fully understand the story, the characters, motivations, everything. This cleared up so mamy things for me and now I just love the game even more. Thank you gor this! ❤

20:14 huh? Thats just how academics are? 😂 I think you might have gotten that impression from reading about some of the more famous academics, this isnt that common of a thing otherwise- academics are pretty collaborative people, probably some of the most colaborative, because academic feilds requires it. (Btw, i wouldnt even mention this if there werent so many people that think that academics are thease stuck up egomaniacs that think that they know everything, meanwhille the contrary tends to be true overwhelmingly more of the time, because simply put, overcirtainty is not conducive to good research)

what a great video Jesus. makes me want a movie adaptation.

Have finished the video but I hope you touch on the schizophrenic Josh theory

You personally convinced me to try the Supermassive games, me being a massive wimp mostly allergic to horror Your channel is just incredible

Thanks for answering every question! Supermassive can be very hit or miss on how they portray minorities but I'd say that the Quarry is their most stereoype-heavy approach. Eliza and Silas are an amalgamation of tropes associated (usually negatively) with Romani people rather than actual characters which is weird considering that one of the main themes of the game is family relationships... I think the pushback you've faced on that opinion is related to fact that it's one of your most popular videos, meaning that a much larger audience reacted to it because it feels like they tried to reengineer the wendigo reveal without considering the fact that Hannah being a central character is what made it special and then just...messily resorted to some insensitive stereotypes to just be done with it?? Supermassive battle royale sounds like a danganronpa-esque fever dream lol It's pretty interesting how differently people judge their own progress, I'd say you're one of the fastest video essayists I've seen considering the lenght of your videos and the amount of academic research that goes into them (it's basically my uni essay progress!) so hearing you say that you consider your release schedule slow was shocking! Your opinions are always very well-realized and thought out, the youtube algorithm can be pretty unforgiving but there will always be people that tune back in so it's more important to not burn yourself out. I haven't yet checked out the Parasocial vid yet so I'll do that!

awesome video!!! i've been playing termina a lot and also watched my girlfriend do most endings on funger 1 (because it's too much for me to play) and i find super interesting everyting that has to do with the greater philosophy of the game and the concept of enlightenment itself and i cannot thank you enough for talking about this, i love this video.

It'd be interesting to see an Enlightened soul in fh3 be the equivalent of an internet intellectual type, someone who in the grander scheme of things is rather knowledgeable on world history and works of great thinkers of their world (the previous Enlightened souls + potentially O'Saa) yet uses that knowledge mostly to argue with people out of a perceived sense of superiority. Given what info we have on the third title i reckon they wouldn't be taken seriously in any academic field due to how obscure the lore on the old gods has become and as such wouldn't really be viewed as anyone of note (at least at the start of the game).

congrats :D

53:40 This. This is why I love O'Saa.

My sibling is the same way! Her fav Telltale game was Wolf Among Us as well. Her fav character was Snow White and she ended up collecting the entirety of the Fable comics!
