Jjgsaw in the movie: "the code is on the neck of every contestant, good luck figuring out the order" Jigsaw in the game: "yeah I just kinda wrote the code on the toilet doors"
Honestly, if you think about it, Jigsaw doesn't help people at all with addiction. Like, you expect people to stop doing drugs because you put them in a death trap? That's the kind of traumatic stuff that will make people START doing drugs
yea I always got confused by these kinda villains, crooked cops sure but "I'm gonna put all these victims of addiction into a torture chamber to make them realise drugs are bad" like wtf lmao get a life mate
His reasoning could be anything and the death traps wouldn't be justified. His worldview is inherently flawed when you look at it but he himself has been traumatised, jigsaw belives he is morally righteous and society isn't doing what needs to be done, that this is the logical conclusion to the "crimes" committed by his victims and he has done nothing but facilitate justice and will ultimately help them see the "true value" in life like his terminal illness did for him. We the viewer can see he's just crazy though, although i think we can empathise with the feeling the society doesn't do enough to help people that need it.
Internet Historian's Jigsaw game was to remember his main channel's password a year ago. Now that he's remembered he's decided to unleash his wrath on everyone.
One of the most infuriating things about this game and most of the franchise as a whole is there's usually huge amounts of various detritus lying around that could very easily be used to cheese the majority of these games, usually by clogging up the machinery in traps The shotgun trap, for example, could just be jammed up with a few pieces of note paper or wrappers to stop the primers on the shotgun shells from going off if the trap triggered. The toilet needles could be done with a minimal chance of injury by using whatever is lying around to pad your hands to throw the needles out of the toilet, you might get stabbed a few times but like, not as much as raw dogging the AIDS toilet
Honestly the needle toilets and razor filled bodies are really easy to get through unscathed. Just don't jam your arm in and start rustling around violently like Tapp does and you'll be fine, take it slow and gentle and you won't move with enough force to injure yourself even if you graze the sharp edges. At worst you'll come out the other end with a few nicks.
I think is meant to be Ironic. The panic of going to die in a horrible way...mainly knowing how much time you have left if you mess up, gets people in a mental state where they see things but don't think on how useful they are thus ignoring them.
Honestly if were adding realism, the serial killer would also have a manual switch to activate if the players start getting around the intent of the game
I don't remember what movie it was, but my favorite moment in the whole series is when Tobin Bell says "Your son is in a safe......... And secure location" And the plot twist is that his son was in a safe in the corner of the room

This is an absolutely brilliant channel. Every episode has so much content in it, you can watch them dozens of times and find new stuff in each one. Keep this up. It's amazing. Of course, I can't wait to see your take on Omikron: The Nomad Soul.....
The problem with any "genius" characters, like Jigsaw is suppose to be, is they are only as ever as smart as their writers, and, as it turns out, most writers aren't that smart.
You're in a shower room. Your hair is greasy, and you'll have to wash it or you die. But every time you're about to rinse the shampoo off, a pig man behind you pours more on your head. He's laughing and recording you. You're going to end up on America's funniest home videos.
Been wondering when they’ll cover the Saw games since the Spooky vid with ManyKudos. “You never appreciated your foreskin when you had it” still lives in my head.
4:25 I think the actual answer is like, "hey you're so obsessed with finding me, can that obsession carry you through the same traps that I've made throughout my time as a killer"
@@donnymcmahon4568 In all honesty I am really picky with my shows, and I really wanted to give the show a chance, but once it was revealed that it was all vampire stuff, I checked out. At first it was pretty okay, even if some camera work was a bit questionable. I was invested like it might be a demon who was manipulating the town, which I think could have been an interesting concept of a demon posing as an angel to corrupt a church/town, but the vampire stuff was disappointing to me. I still finished the show, but once the reveal that it was a vampire causing everything and characters were no longer acting like real people, I lost interest. And it became nothing but monologue after long, boring monologue in the last few episodes that ultimately didn't mean anything to the overall narrative. It's hard for me to find horrors that I genuinely enjoy, because a big thing for me is caring about the characters/acting like real people in such situations, which this show wasn't for me. Not the worst show I've seen, but I think could have done better in my opinion. There so many more monsters out there in the world that I think shows could play with instead of the same old vampire/werewolf stuff. Not to say demon is any better (which I think hollywood doesn't do them enough justice in the horror genre lately), but if they wanted to play with church/faith corruption, it would have been a smoother route. If you want a horror show I do enjoy, that has some decent horror elements and good characters/actors, please try The Exorcist that aired on Fox back in 2016 with Ben Daniels. It has a good, solid story with good characters and even some decent horror, even if it doesn't really scare me. If it doesn't scare, the characters and story help save it. Please check it out as it doesn't get much love with it only having 2 seasons.
My question is, when and how did JigSaw sew Melissa's mouth shut when she was totally fine like 20 minutes before? And what was the point if you'd already saved her?
He grabbed her right after she left Tapp, and it was a lot longer than 20 minutes between those scenes (they skipped/abridged a lot). The "why" is basically just Jigsaw being a dick for no reason in this game, he had her act as his stand-in for the rest of the game from that point, so the "truth" Tapp was promised specifically referred to her and not Jigsaw.
as someone who has *attempted* this game and got maybe 1/3rd through... if jigsaw caught me irl and told me to play it, I'd just let him kill me. It's painful. And for some reason gave me a migrane and a stomach ache. Probably related to the fact that the game is old as balls and doesn't have much by way of graphics customization settings.

@@toolatetothestory They literally did FF7 and other Japanese games. I look forward to FF8 from all the music usage, and I kind of fear the day they do FF14 (victory theme they use)
Trap idea: You get into a room and a person needs some kisses , but super dry lips. You must retrieve some Chapstick from a toilet filled with Legos. If they fail the person is left wanting.
"So Jigsaw, the trials you put me through were meant to play off of my personal fears and obsessions, right?" "Lol no I just fucking hate you and wanted you to stick your hand in dirty needles."
The thing I always find hilarious about this game is if Tapp died on the first reverse-bear-trap puzzle. Kidnapping all those people, converting an entire asylum top to bottom and filling it with recordings and people close to him spaced out for dramatic effect, just a total waste of Jigsaw's time
For how little people ever talk about the Zero Escape series, youtuber editors love to use the 999 soundtrack for completely unrelated videos. Very nice
This was a really fun episode, Mr. Branson is a great co-host and loved all the side tangents of you guys just laughing and having fun, Looking forward to more StoryModes soon :]
The guy who falls into the spikes from the balance beam I'm pretty sure is from the demo for this game. I remember it ending with a balance beam you always fall off of as someone enters from the other door.
In the last three weeks since watching my first storymode video I have watched every single video a minimum of 4-5 times. I cannot feasibly express the joy I have from a new upload.
"Yea I know what happened: Someone with no imagination, whatsoever, bought the rights to the Saw franchise" Fucking raw line IH, and so apparently true. Makes me sad cause I so loved the first ~3.
They could've gone for something about him being the long arm of the law and the integrity being eaten away looking for the key to his obsession for the acid barrel trap.
If I remember right, the poetic justice of Trap time 2 (the needles in the toilet) is that he forced other people to literally go through toilets and used needles to try and find clues on Jigsaw.
Was having a really rough few weeks, but have been binge watching all three channels and it lifts my mood tremendously. Thanks you so much for your videos, I can smile again ❤
Tomas you never appreciated my home baked cookies from my bake sale. You said your tummy was full, but you went to that pizza place right after you walked past. For your test you will have to… Hey you see that lever down there? Yeah a bit to your left you should find it. Could you pull it real quick? I forgot to do that when I was there. I’m so sorry, this doesn’t happen often.
I imagine it would be very funny to have a parody of Saw where he sets up every puzzle game with actual legit ways of solving them without hurting the player, but for some weird reason the players constantly choose to solve the puzzles in horribly painful ways instead annoying Jigsaw to no end. At the very end, the survivor/s get out with a ton of injuries when they could've just survived unharmed all along.
I feel like a few traps could be easily navigated by just opening your clothes and putting them on your arms/feet. It's not a foolproof solution, but you know, it's some protection
If I ever woke up in a Saw situation, I would kick a hole in the wall and leave but not before setting the place on fire. I never understood why the franchise was so popular.
You know what I really dont like about the SAW movies(?) Jigsaw wants societal change, right? One would think that if he wanted to actually change society, he would go after the rich and powerful and not poor nobodies . I guarantee you if he got 1 billionaire or politician in a saw trap , it would have an infinitely bigger impact on society than killing some guy who cheated on his wife. This is my problem with the concept , he took like the "pick yourself up by the bootstrap while I saw off your ankles " mentality.
You know after watching this so many times over; I finally realize how... The toilet needle trap... You can just quickly take all the needles out and throw them on the floor... And then easily get the thing you need...
Nobody would ever get out. They’d all be so stupid that even if they found his corpse they’d just search his pockets, looking for the key and starve to death never thinking to cut into his chest.
If you do somehow manage to escape the reverse bear trap, you: -Repair the trap to working condition -Find the weakest spot in the shitty bathroom wall -Use it to bite holes out of the wall -Rinse and repeat until you get yourself a metal pipe as a backup -If the bear trap breaks, use the pipe to break the wall -Do that until you escape -If you somehow fail at that, or there are too many walls between you and the outside, play along until you find the LITERAL EXPLOSIVES -Use the explosives to bore your way out from the same place you were at the wall (or a weaker place if you can find one) -If that ALSO fails, go until you find the motorized saw blades and cut your way out (if you can, the cord might not be long enough - if it's not, follow the cord as long as you can) -If THAT fails, play the game until Jigsaw shows you that freedom after playing is no guarantee and that he'll probably just kill you anyway -If all else fails, Gandi protest. See, he won't expect you to think THAT outside the box. EZ
None of that would work. The *reverse* bear trap first and foremost is a timed trap. He would run out of time by the time the trap releases the first time. Even without that, the trap opens rather than closes. The last thing with this is that the walls are made of tile, wall, and concrete. The trap would only work (completely ignoring the other factors) if the walls were drywall. The metal pipe has the same problem with the bear trap. It definitely won’t break down walls even if they’re damaged since there are metal support beams and pipes in between the walls. The saws was debunked. Even so, the traps that had saws were anchored down, so they wouldn’t be able to pick it up
@@bunnyonabunwithagunnicepun5689 it can’t be just metal. It has to be thick enough. No point in banging a rod against a solid wall if it’ll just bend from the impact

Came here to say this as soon as I saw the title of the video 😂
I didn't do anything!
@@cola98765just get me out!
Wasn’t Jigsaw’s defense like “I didn’t kill anybody. I’m no murderer. It’s not my fault they failed to solve my puzzle and died.”
I didn’t kill him. The gun did.
Effectively yeah.
Yeah, but he still abducted them. That’s still kidnapping.
@@himwhoisnottobenamed5427 And false imprisonment as he holds them in an asylum against their will.
"No, Officer, you see, if they wanted to live they should have tried to survive harder."
Jjgsaw in the movie: "the code is on the neck of every contestant, good luck figuring out the order"
Jigsaw in the game: "yeah I just kinda wrote the code on the toilet doors"
Toilet based traps
If it is a strict combination lock the order doesn't matter vs a sequential lock.
The numbers were color coded to the rainbow
Gotta love that Storymode roasting the crap out of it doesnt really make the Saw franchise any more ridiculous than it already was.
"they got delicious again, or however drugs work," was strangely wholesome, like a child trying to empathize with an addict
a building made entirely out of hallways and bathrooms
One of those games where messing up every chance is way more fun than actually escaping
So many of these traps could be solved if Danny Glover would just carry around a stick, so he doesn't have to put his arm in everything.
Honestly, if you think about it, Jigsaw doesn't help people at all with addiction. Like, you expect people to stop doing drugs because you put them in a death trap? That's the kind of traumatic stuff that will make people START doing drugs
yea I always got confused by these kinda villains, crooked cops sure but "I'm gonna put all these victims of addiction into a torture chamber to make them realise drugs are bad" like wtf lmao get a life mate
His reasoning could be anything and the death traps wouldn't be justified. His worldview is inherently flawed when you look at it but he himself has been traumatised, jigsaw belives he is morally righteous and society isn't doing what needs to be done, that this is the logical conclusion to the "crimes" committed by his victims and he has done nothing but facilitate justice and will ultimately help them see the "true value" in life like his terminal illness did for him. We the viewer can see he's just crazy though, although i think we can empathise with the feeling the society doesn't do enough to help people that need it.
Internet Historian's Jigsaw game was to remember his main channel's password a year ago. Now that he's remembered he's decided to unleash his wrath on everyone.
One of the most infuriating things about this game and most of the franchise as a whole is there's usually huge amounts of various detritus lying around that could very easily be used to cheese the majority of these games, usually by clogging up the machinery in traps
The shotgun trap, for example, could just be jammed up with a few pieces of note paper or wrappers to stop the primers on the shotgun shells from going off if the trap triggered. The toilet needles could be done with a minimal chance of injury by using whatever is lying around to pad your hands to throw the needles out of the toilet, you might get stabbed a few times but like, not as much as raw dogging the AIDS toilet
Honestly the needle toilets and razor filled bodies are really easy to get through unscathed. Just don't jam your arm in and start rustling around violently like Tapp does and you'll be fine, take it slow and gentle and you won't move with enough force to injure yourself even if you graze the sharp edges. At worst you'll come out the other end with a few nicks.
I think is meant to be Ironic. The panic of going to die in a horrible way...mainly knowing how much time you have left if you mess up, gets people in a mental state where they see things but don't think on how useful they are thus ignoring them.
@@KaleidosXXI Or just carefully grab 2-3 at a time by the plungers and pull them out, emptying the toilet of syringes into a neat little pile.
I always assumed Jigsaw would just remotely trigger the trap if you try and cheese it or solve it in a way he doesn't want.
@@Fordo007what a loser "no you're doing wrong! Play the game right!"
At least 7-10% of those traps could be easly avoided if people were at least 15% more cautious.
The real lesson is to take your time in life and stop making rash decisions
Theres a 37% chance whgat you just said is 88% BS.
@@tgreaux5027 I am inside your walls.
@@tgreaux5027 run
Honestly if were adding realism, the serial killer would also have a manual switch to activate if the players start getting around the intent of the game
I don't remember what movie it was, but my favorite moment in the whole series is when Tobin Bell says "Your son is in a safe......... And secure location" And the plot twist is that his son was in a safe in the corner of the room

Been having the absolute worst month but now everything is okay . Storymode cures all ailments. All hail
Yeah oct has been brutal.
Re4 remake tho
Act like you matter because you do
I hope next month will be better for you.
Thank yall for the concern lmao dont worry i keep on trucking :)
It's going to be an amazing November, fam! Stay healthy, stay positive, stay motivated, and you will crush the rest of this year! Best of luck and much love, everyone! ❤️
I remember when I was in school a kid was talking about his dad taking him to see Saw II in theaters and he asked if I had seen it. I replied "Oh yeah, I saw saw two too" and boy did I find that much funnier than everybody else did.
That is pretty funny.
@@Dr.Oofers Your taste is impeccable
His hand and arm seem to be in pretty good shape after going into a barrel of acid. He didn't even need the stick or coat hanger.
I was so psyched when they revealed this at Sawcon.
whats sawcon?
@@SeductiveCrab its where you go to meet girls into really extreme BDSM.
Me too, i got so excited i put a sock on
I remember when Jerma personally unveiled this game at Sawcon. Good times.
@@SeductiveCrab sawcon on these nuts
This is an absolutely brilliant channel. Every episode has so much content in it, you can watch them dozens of times and find new stuff in each one. Keep this up. It's amazing.
Of course, I can't wait to see your take on Omikron: The Nomad Soul.....
The Nordman Soul
The original Normad Reedus
I can't wait to hear a lot of terrible David Bowie impressions.
Are you trying to give him psychic damage?
@@GoldenYaldabaoth "The pretty things are going to hell..."
To find Jigsaw you only need to trace the one guy who is still buying little cassette tapes in bulk. It can't be that common anymore
The truly scary thing about this video is how many times I'm gonna watch it until the next one
Its just like how we repeat songs.
The problem with any "genius" characters, like Jigsaw is suppose to be, is they are only as ever as smart as their writers, and, as it turns out, most writers aren't that smart.
Why, after the first door, wouldnt you bring a brick to stop them from closing automatically?
Because that would make sense and we're not about that bullshit here.
There will be none of that thinking in this thread.
You're in a shower room. Your hair is greasy, and you'll have to wash it or you die. But every time you're about to rinse the shampoo off, a pig man behind you pours more on your head. He's laughing and recording you. You're going to end up on America's funniest home videos.
That fact that he said "if you quick scope jigsaw" and in cod you actually can makes it so much better 😂
Been wondering when they’ll cover the Saw games since the Spooky vid with ManyKudos. “You never appreciated your foreskin when you had it” still lives in my head.
But is it paying rent tho? 🤔🍍
Nail brush on the head?
4:25 I think the actual answer is like, "hey you're so obsessed with finding me, can that obsession carry you through the same traps that I've made throughout my time as a killer"
You need to “expleen” a Christmas related game around Christmas time. That would be cool
they need to do the Polar Express video game that doesn't have Tom Hanks
The thing for ps2
Dead Rising 4 would be amazing. Would be great if they led up to it with each game.
Nightmare before Christmas. Yeah, they made a game base off the movie.
@@bloodysimile4893 The game isnt based on the movie its a legit full blown canonical sequel. But yeah that would be an amazing game for them to do.
I like how they all hate him for literally no reason. its his fault because hes a detective who wants to capture a mass murderer
I am so glad I was not the only one that practically died of boredom from that Midnight Mass monologue. RIP good sir, and happy Spooks to you.
Yeah that scene was a bit tedious, but what did you think of the show as a whole? I personally think it's one of the best series I've ever seen.
@@donnymcmahon4568 In all honesty I am really picky with my shows, and I really wanted to give the show a chance, but once it was revealed that it was all vampire stuff, I checked out.
At first it was pretty okay, even if some camera work was a bit questionable. I was invested like it might be a demon who was manipulating the town, which I think could have been an interesting concept of a demon posing as an angel to corrupt a church/town, but the vampire stuff was disappointing to me. I still finished the show, but once the reveal that it was a vampire causing everything and characters were no longer acting like real people, I lost interest. And it became nothing but monologue after long, boring monologue in the last few episodes that ultimately didn't mean anything to the overall narrative. It's hard for me to find horrors that I genuinely enjoy, because a big thing for me is caring about the characters/acting like real people in such situations, which this show wasn't for me.
Not the worst show I've seen, but I think could have done better in my opinion. There so many more monsters out there in the world that I think shows could play with instead of the same old vampire/werewolf stuff. Not to say demon is any better (which I think hollywood doesn't do them enough justice in the horror genre lately), but if they wanted to play with church/faith corruption, it would have been a smoother route.
If you want a horror show I do enjoy, that has some decent horror elements and good characters/actors, please try The Exorcist that aired on Fox back in 2016 with Ben Daniels. It has a good, solid story with good characters and even some decent horror, even if it doesn't really scare me. If it doesn't scare, the characters and story help save it. Please check it out as it doesn't get much love with it only having 2 seasons.
My question is, when and how did JigSaw sew Melissa's mouth shut when she was totally fine like 20 minutes before? And what was the point if you'd already saved her?
He grabbed her right after she left Tapp, and it was a lot longer than 20 minutes between those scenes (they skipped/abridged a lot). The "why" is basically just Jigsaw being a dick for no reason in this game, he had her act as his stand-in for the rest of the game from that point, so the "truth" Tapp was promised specifically referred to her and not Jigsaw.
as someone who has *attempted* this game and got maybe 1/3rd through... if jigsaw caught me irl and told me to play it, I'd just let him kill me. It's painful. And for some reason gave me a migrane and a stomach ache. Probably related to the fact that the game is old as balls and doesn't have much by way of graphics customization settings.

Thank you story man for helping me through another tough time on the toilet ☺️
Same lol
I appreciated the editing that pointed out when it was trap time. It made following the story much easier.
12:20 “But after all the trauma I put you through, you should have been appreciating life more, not relapsing into drug use! Am I really so out of touch...no! No, it’s my victims that aren’t learning their lessons.”
It would make sense if people were logical, but most people aren't. They would get into a life or death situation because of their addiction, have some introspection, and then stop their self-destructive behavior. But most people are not logical.
The fact that Amanda is in here means she relapsed twice and had to go through 3 jigsaw traps, lmao
"hey tap I saw him!"
"ok?"
"yeah tap, I saw him!"
"ok, what did he look like?"
"IS THAT ALL YOU CARE ABOUT?"
My favorite part is the deaths in the Nord VPN ads. Made me spit my coffee from laughing on my computer that I had to pay 150$ to repair the screen. Thank you Story mode
More importantly where did Jigsaw get all those used needles
The game is set in Portland and that's an average toilet.
jigsaw sure like sticking keys everywhere, there a key in those needles, there's a key in those bodies, there's a key in YOU, there's a key in the acid.
"If I died, Mark, you'd be heartbroken, wouldn't ya?"
Well, unfortunately Mr. Branson, robots don't have hearts.
Hope y'all decide to follow up on the sequels to sMax Peene Expleened someday!
I would absolutely love it if you did one for the first Xenoblade. It would be a long one but I know you can do it justice
Too anime I think
Xenogears?
@@toolatetothestory They literally did FF7 and other Japanese games. I look forward to FF8 from all the music usage, and I kind of fear the day they do FF14 (victory theme they use)
IT'S AD TIME
@@smergthedargon8974 oh yeah baby
Trap idea: You get into a room and a person needs some kisses , but super dry lips. You must retrieve some Chapstick from a toilet filled with Legos. If they fail the person is left wanting.
The true horror is social anxiety!
Like all saw traps, easily solved just by peeing on them.
Great ad yet again. The "Urologists hate this 1 simple trick!" had me dying when I saw that.
"He's got huge potential, if only he'd apply himself."
- Every report card I ever got.
Probably what will be written on my gravestone too.
"So Jigsaw, the trials you put me through were meant to play off of my personal fears and obsessions, right?"
"Lol no I just fucking hate you and wanted you to stick your hand in dirty needles."
"Oh no it's an upgrade of pyramid head, he's got one more side, he's cube head" that part got me laughing like hahahahahaha
The thing I always find hilarious about this game is if Tapp died on the first reverse-bear-trap puzzle. Kidnapping all those people, converting an entire asylum top to bottom and filling it with recordings and people close to him spaced out for dramatic effect, just a total waste of Jigsaw's time
For how little people ever talk about the Zero Escape series, youtuber editors love to use the 999 soundtrack for completely unrelated videos. Very nice
This was a really fun episode, Mr. Branson is a great co-host and loved all the side tangents of you guys just laughing and having fun, Looking forward to more StoryModes soon :]
Can't believe Internet Historian got the guy who did the VO in HALF LIFE: FULL LIFE CONSEQUENCES to voice Jigsaw!
2:28 i didnt expect theres trail in the sky bgm played right here
Trails in the Sky has a banger soundtrack
The guy who falls into the spikes from the balance beam I'm pretty sure is from the demo for this game. I remember it ending with a balance beam you always fall off of as someone enters from the other door.
In the last three weeks since watching my first storymode video I have watched every single video a minimum of 4-5 times. I cannot feasibly express the joy I have from a new upload.
"Yea I know what happened:
Someone with no imagination, whatsoever, bought the rights to the Saw franchise"
Fucking raw line IH, and so apparently true. Makes me sad cause I so loved the first ~3.
Finally, my favorite bad horror game.
They could've gone for something about him being the long arm of the law and the integrity being eaten away looking for the key to his obsession for the acid barrel trap.
10:36 Clipping through pillows is how you get the deepest sleep.
If I remember right, the poetic justice of Trap time 2 (the needles in the toilet) is that he forced other people to literally go through toilets and used needles to try and find clues on Jigsaw.
Does anyone else love when he does the acapela of the saw theme? I would almost pay to hear it. And to hear it with the radio distortion.
It would be Hilarious if the Detective died in like the first Test and Jigsaw put up this whole fuckibg dungeon for nothing
The best saw trap was definitely having to play through this entire game
Was having a really rough few weeks, but have been binge watching all three channels and it lifts my mood tremendously. Thanks you so much for your videos, I can smile again ❤
Best wishes mate. Take it one day at a time yeah? 🙂
Tomas you never appreciated my home baked cookies from my bake sale. You said your tummy was full, but you went to that pizza place right after you walked past. For your test you will have to…
Hey you see that lever down there? Yeah a bit to your left you should find it. Could you pull it real quick? I forgot to do that when I was there. I’m so sorry, this doesn’t happen often.
I imagine it would be very funny to have a parody of Saw where he sets up every puzzle game with actual legit ways of solving them without hurting the player, but for some weird reason the players constantly choose to solve the puzzles in horribly painful ways instead annoying Jigsaw to no end. At the very end, the survivor/s get out with a ton of injuries when they could've just survived unharmed all along.
I feel like a few traps could be easily navigated by just opening your clothes and putting them on your arms/feet. It's not a foolproof solution, but you know, it's some protection
If I ever woke up in a Saw situation, I would kick a hole in the wall and leave but not before setting the place on fire. I never understood why the franchise was so popular.
Jigsaw owns an awful lot of old tube TVs.
Jigsaw is a smash bros melee player.
You know what I really dont like about the SAW movies(?) Jigsaw wants societal change, right?
One would think that if he wanted to actually change society, he would go after the rich and powerful and not poor nobodies .
I guarantee you if he got 1 billionaire or politician in a saw trap , it would have an infinitely bigger impact on society than killing some guy who cheated on his wife.
This is my problem with the concept , he took like the "pick yourself up by the bootstrap while I saw off your ankles " mentality.
the cops should just look for whoever's buying a million old tube tvs
You know after watching this so many times over; I finally realize how... The toilet needle trap... You can just quickly take all the needles out and throw them on the floor... And then easily get the thing you need...
What if Tapp just died in the first trap?
He'd have... Tapped out.
@@mandowarrior123 😆
Nobody would ever get out. They’d all be so stupid that even if they found his corpse they’d just search his pockets, looking for the key and starve to death never thinking to cut into his chest.
Just remember, if the actor isn't getting paid then that game version isn't going to look or sound much like them. "Legally distinct".
So glad there's more videos on Storymode. I've grown to love this channel a ton and the videos are hilarious as heck!
>detective bad becasue obsessing over case
isn't that his literal job tho ????
I've watched 90% of this channels videos within this last month seeing a new video release during this time is like witnessing a miracle
"FOUND NOTHING". How could anyone possibly accept that?!
The amount of Zero Escape and Ace Attorney music in this video brings me joy, hope you'll make videos on them someday! Happy spookday
If you do somehow manage to escape the reverse bear trap, you:
-Repair the trap to working condition
-Find the weakest spot in the shitty bathroom wall
-Use it to bite holes out of the wall
-Rinse and repeat until you get yourself a metal pipe as a backup
-If the bear trap breaks, use the pipe to break the wall
-Do that until you escape
-If you somehow fail at that, or there are too many walls between you and the outside, play along until you find the LITERAL EXPLOSIVES
-Use the explosives to bore your way out from the same place you were at the wall (or a weaker place if you can find one)
-If that ALSO fails, go until you find the motorized saw blades and cut your way out (if you can, the cord might not be long enough - if it's not, follow the cord as long as you can)
-If THAT fails, play the game until Jigsaw shows you that freedom after playing is no guarantee and that he'll probably just kill you anyway
-If all else fails, Gandi protest.
See, he won't expect you to think THAT outside the box. EZ
Also, Tapp Time.
None of that would work. The *reverse* bear trap first and foremost is a timed trap. He would run out of time by the time the trap releases the first time. Even without that, the trap opens rather than closes. The last thing with this is that the walls are made of tile, wall, and concrete. The trap would only work (completely ignoring the other factors) if the walls were drywall.
The metal pipe has the same problem with the bear trap. It definitely won’t break down walls even if they’re damaged since there are metal support beams and pipes in between the walls.
The saws was debunked. Even so, the traps that had saws were anchored down, so they wouldn’t be able to pick it up
@@Ase832 Hit something with metal hard and long enough, and you'll probably get there eventually.
@@bunnyonabunwithagunnicepun5689 it can’t be just metal. It has to be thick enough. No point in banging a rod against a solid wall if it’ll just bend from the impact
@@Ase832 It's SAW, the concept of thin metal doesn't exist in this universe lol
I’m going to make a Storymode about all of their NordVPN ads 😂
I remember watching AllShamNoWow’s play through of this game. It was a fever dream hearing Louis’s voice actor in a game like this, and I don’t even remember hearing Jen Taylor (Cortana and Zoey’s VA) until now.
The truth ending doesn't even show any answers.
Jigsaw is just a guy who had a failing escape room business because of the whole dying thing, so he just kidnaps people so his business can keep going
I love how hard they triying to gaslight Tapp and the player to think all that is happening is his fault, while the one killing people is fucking Saw
After 2 or 3 doors that locks him into a trap you’d think that the guy would attempt to block a door before crossing it
This takes me back to the Allshamnowow lets plays that he did on this game that were hysterical.
Bro he’s the only reason I feel like anyone remembers this game at all! It’s crazy to think that was 10 years ago, I used to sit in study hall and watch the new episode on my Samsung galaxy s1 😂
