I replayed "Patapon" and it destroyed my Nostalgia
Reflections on the Patapon series.
*More on Ratatan: I wanna clarify my feelings on why I paid for the game and don't put expectations on them fulfilling a deadline. I just am supporting the fact that someone at all is creating such a project, especially the original devs, but I would not say this is a good investment practice! If anything, it is those people that are skeptical about the investment and hold the developers accountable for what they try to sell, those opinions are ultimately the important ones for the game to actually deliver on its promises.

My man, with full respect. Watched the vid. It was a good summary of the story, however, most of this is VERY subjective. You may not like the story, that's fine, but you criticized a lot of things that were objectively good. The word ofender was the "it's so boring im sleeping" part, like, bro, maybe you just don't enjoy the game anymore, that's fine. But you can just say the game lost it's charm when Patapon 2 introduced so much new stuff and interesting concepts. And the stroy itself also is objectively alright, some ups and downs, but you definitely went to harsh on it on some parts.
that no thnk u part ...XD XD
great video
I just found your channel and I'm glad I did! I love the way you explain and see things. Keep up the good work. You're awesome
man i love that more people are starting to get into this movie i loved it as a kid i still have the vhs tape i even remember all the ads on it i watched the fuck out of it
17:43 I don't think night air killing Adelaide is meant to be symbolic. Before germs were discovered, bad air, especially night air, was thought to cause diseases.
Great video to watch as summer ends and autumn approaches.
I love this animation, and this is the best video I ever saw about it. Thank you!
Not gonna lie, Tarzan is probably one of the underrated Disney films, and a great way to end the Renaissance Era.
Wow, this is phenomenal man. Well done. Huge Sunshine fan here (channel dedicated to it) and appreciate your work. There's something inherently spiritual about Sunshine that makes it so fascinating.
Amazingly well put together video, it's a fascinating and well-informed analysis
man, you did a great job
And also,what happens to the bees at the end of the series is he dead or will he try to come back if there was ever season two when he tricks another person to take up the burden of his lantern?🏮
But what about the people they helped along the way their stories were able to be resolved so shouldn’t that mean that the unknown is actually a real place like predatory or limbo?
This is the first video I've ever watched of your! I grew up with OTGW and you did an amazing job explaining the phycology of this show. Im so shocked you only have a little over 500 subs ( including me now lol). Your videos are so well made ❤
Going with your format, i'd have to say the tea seller resembles something along the lines of introspection.
HOW DO YOU ONLY HAVE 590 SUBSCRIBERS this is so good!
Really enjoyed this video and invitation to consider OtGW from a Jungian perspective
this is great. watching your portal video next
yo great video
this video has a really good editing , voice narration flow
after seeing that this video WILL NOT leave my notifications.....I wondered into the unknown
An absolute delight to listen to. Especially enjoyed your willingness to also discuss shortcomings or points that don't (yet) fit well into your frame of thought. Great work
I LOVE the connection to Jungian Psychology! You're prob the first RUclipsr to make that connection to Over the Garden Wall
Nice!
I didn't realize how underrated this video+channel where until after I had finished watching the whole video, I really hope your content gets the type of recognition it deserves!!
This is the kind of stuff that makes me so happy to be alive in this age. Accessibility to content creation has never been better and voices like yours are allowed to be heard. This was an incredible analysis and I can tell it took a large effort to make. This show will always be one of my favorite of all time and I loved hearing your perspective. Well done and you earned a subscriber!
touching myself to this :)
Hooray 🥳😁
What did I just found?
Loving this
Mind mapping scares me, we know we could replicate a human perfectly at some point, but it wouldn’t be them, it’s not their conciseness. You can never really live forever, even if you are uploaded. It wouldn’t be you
Something funny that Id like to point out is that while All the personality Cores just dont fucking SHUT Up and are Constantly talking or making noise The Morality Core just, stares It doesn't say anything, doesnt make a noise GLaDOS curiosity is constantly asking questions and looking around, her emotions are a constant stream of rage and her intelligence is constantly revising faulty data But her Morality is quiet, just looking at the horrors in silence
i like to imagine that it's because GLaDOS is ignoring her humanity, aka the morality core, the core is silent because it's been silenced. im attempting to reference the lab rat portal comics. who knows though i might be the most wrong person in the world
I love your reading of the game with respect to current events and use of words! I see and agree with the point you are making about tryhard humans with no regard to emotions of others and themselves creating AI that won't care about such things I just want to respond to your view of AI as having human-like emotions or repeating the patterns of their makers. The way we are doing AI currently, these are optimization systems, not human-like cognitive agents with feelings included etc. To be optimized for a goal that is not human wellbeing, any regard to such "irrelevant" things would go to the wayside. I am also not someone in this area of alignment research but I would recommend you to learn more so that you know about the potential (civilization-ending or even biology-ending) risks. Robert Miles has a great channel and easy to digest explanations and examples related to these stuff. I just saw your sub count and it should be MUCH MUCH higher than that! I hope you get the recognition such content deserves.
Glados isn't an AI? she's a Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, basically an upload of an lady named Caroline who went crazy having her mind in a machine.
Well, thats a bit of an over simplification GLaDOS is made up of Lots and Lots of parts We know Aperture can create sentient AI because even the fucking Floor is sentient in that place, for some reason And we know GLaDOS existed before they up loaded Caroline, as Cave was originally supposed to be uploaded in her place, GLaDOS is made out of loads of parts, as we see at that fight where you basically Dissasemble her brain into its components Also, At the end of Portal 2 she says she Deleted Caroline, implying not only that she was compartamentalised but also that Caroline Wasnt even THAT big of a fragment
@@nidhogg8446 Those extra parts that you break off were not originally part of her, they were put on her to make her less evil. Also I recall the entire purpose of the glados machine was to make cave johnson immortal so it really was not intended to be used as AI but a hosting spot for a human mind.
She wasn’t an ai, she is now, she’s an ai replicating Caroline
@@nidhogg8446I honestly would believe that evetthing in aperture is sentient
@@Shieldzany I would say she only became fully AI after deleting Caroline.
Nice, well written video! Remember me when you blow up 😮💨🫡
Wooooo new portal content!
Another thing I love about Tarzan on kind of a sociological level is that, in the assorted main characters, we see two worlds (Nature and humanity/ civilization) at their best and worst. The gorillas symbolize nature at its best: Loyal, supportive of each other, in balance/ harmony with their natural surroundings. Sabor, in contrast, symbolizes nature at its worst: Savage, merciless, bloodthirsty. No, on the human side of things, Jane and Dr. Porter symbolize humanity/ civilization at its best: Harmlessly curious, fascinated with nature, driven by a love of knowledge and a desire to educate others, and determined not to cause harm. Clayton, on the other side of things, symbolizes humanity/ civilization at its worst: Greedy, ignorant, bigoted, only caring about how he can profit off of nature with no regard for the damage he causes. Lastly, we have Tarzan. He's torn between two worlds, yet manages to adopt the best traits from both of them.
Great video.
great video found on my fyp very high quality
❤
Wow, absolutely beautiful video essay. This is one of my favorite games and I didn't even realize the symbolism of the bridge until watching your vid! All the lovely bittersweet catharsis all over again~
Really nice summary
Great video, thanx!!!
Very interesting indeed my guy. Keep up the good work
I enjoyed hearing your perspective, but I don't agree at all that Taeko's decision to stay was "hiding in someone else's shadow again". All we've seen from Toshio is that he listens carefully and attentively to her, is very secure in himself, and wants what's best for her, regardless of his feelings! We can tell he likes her, but he never puts any pressure on her to do what he wants -- even be with him. Taeko, on the other hand, _loves_ his vision and his mission, and is so captivated and excited by it, she wants to join him and his family in it! She admires his mission so much, _her desire_ IS to join him in it. That's not hiding in his shadow. As far as her running away from the family when they suggest it: I don't think that's because deep down she doesn't really want to stay and be with Toshio. I think it's that she has learned to hide from things she doesn't quite understand, and not talk about them. Like the memory about periods. But that doesn't mean she doesn't want it. She just feels like maybe SHE'S too fake for Toshio's beautiful mission, which she so clearly wants to participate in. That's what I think anyway. In the end, the children cheer because she chooses what _she_ really wants. And that includes joining Toshio in his dream, because she loves it so much, and is growing to love him too, for his kindness and attentiveness and security! I agree that the film ends in the middle of her journey to really understand her childhood, not at its conclusion, and I also liked that. Takahata created a true slice-of-life story, without a satisfying but fake "happy ending" -- the end of this film is only the beginning of the story! The way it ends in the middle of the story so perfectly reminds me of The Breakfast Club.
I like your take, except for the fact that Toshio did the whole "maybe he was mean to you because he liked you" thing -- which is a red flag to me, and didn't endear me to Toshio I do think this is a wonderful movie, though
@@MadailinBurnhope - I get that, but at the same time, I think it’s important to note that he’s describing how little boys often are, not saying that it was OK or good. Little boys do often tease girls they like, not because they think being mean is showing affection, but because they want to look tough and cool and masculine. They mistake being tough with being mean. Or sometimes, they weren’t even actually mean, the girl just didn’t like that he was acting boyish and called it “mean”. But ultimately, the point is that Toshio never says that it’s a good behavior. Just that it is in fact something little boys often do.
@milo_thatch_incarnate I still think it asks the question "will she really be safe with him in future?" because it's a social value that we're taught that means we're primed to look for love in abuse but I agree with you in the main, which is to say, this film is all about telling us how things are, without comment; "it just is"
@@MadailinBurnhope - That's fair. I suppose that, just as in real life, we as outsiders couldn't accurately determine whether they're healthy and safe for each other without a _lot_ more information and observation. :)
@@MadailinBurnhope it’s something that little boys do because they are taught that. It’s not a red flag to point out how boys act in a misogynistic world. He is aware of that and said it how it is. It’s not a red flag more like explaining why a person was mean to her but at the same time not excusing him because all he ever did was explain the little boy acted all tough in front of her but when he wasn’t around her he was just a little boy pretending to be someone else.
to me this movie’s ending feels just like the graduate’s ending i know it sounds far fetched since they kinda couldn’t be more far off from each other however they both have the perfect uncanny false happy ending attitude that devolves in we haven’t addressed any of the real issues but found ourselves a thrill to distract but what now and ten audience is left hoping the best for them while knowing better an amazing video essay btw i feel like you were the only one i’ve seen online that captured my conflicted thoughts on only yesterday
On the contrary! I think Taeko finding happiness with people and connection and love in the end was the best and most realistic ending there could be! That relationship can thrive because it's built on friendship, contending with one another, and listening attentively. She's genuinely more happy in the country than in the city, it's _not_ like she's acting on a flight of fancy that she'll later regret. She's loved the country more _ever since she was little._ The ending was her taking the leap of faith and choosing what she knows deep down is best for her and will make her the happiest. How is that an unrealistic ending?
feels more like a summary than an essay
