![Ace Attorney Shorts - Volume 1 [Objection.lol]](/img/1.gif)
Apollo has thalassophobia (fear of deep water), Thalassa is his mother's name. Funny how these things work.
Capcom also has thalassophobia since they won’t tell apollo she is his mom
He's also afraid of heights
= Acrophobla
= He's afraid of that one guy from Turnabout Big Top confirmed /j
Capcom just loves to torture Apollo
Why did Dhurke lose his driver's license?
Because a dragon NEVER yields.
He was in a pretty bad accident because he just wouldn’t obey the sign. Luckily the only permanent damage was his eye and arm, it could have been a lot worse.
That’s genuinely funnier than most of Dhurke’s dad jokes.
Going by how I've seen people drive, choosing to not yield doesn't result in people losing their license.
Phoenix didn't get pushed off a cliff, he willingly walked onto a burning bridge and fell through.
Into a freezing cold river with a current so strong that anyone who falls in is never seen again (well, almost anyone).
All he got was a cold.
39:01
Wet hair Apollo is fuckin HANDSOME
YEAH!
SERIOUS MOMENT
but yeah i agree
Theres a detail that when Dhurke talks about why hes revolting he mentions his children, plural. And then later on it shows that Dhurke promised to pick up Polly from America once things settle down. They dont talk about it but its clear to me that Dhurkes also doing the revolution for Apollo
I almost wanna say Capcom chose to make Apollo's foster father the coolest dad possible in order to balance out Trucy's bio dad being such a butthead.
Spoilers for later in the case.
It also foreshadows the fact that Dhurke has another child besides Nahyuta and Apollo.
This is one of the most terrifying moments in the series. I think a big part of it is how *real* it feels. You're not likely to run into a vengeful spirit like Dahlia or an emotionless murderous spy like the Phantom, and things like a loved one being kidnapped & held for ransom by an assassin, or almost getting executed on a false charge, aren't very common either. Drowning, on the other hand, is a situation that anybody can experience. The fact that it's happening in an eerie cave, with the exit blocked up, certainly adds to the nightmare fuel too.
But this whole scene in the cave, including saving Apollo, was what solidified Dhurke as one of my favorite characters from Spirit of Justice!
Agreed. Dhurke is so good.
NGL the moment of Apollo about to die was arguably the scariest thing to happen in an AA game. Not even Phoenix falling down a burning bridge was as scary as what happened to Apollo and a nightmare. Alone, can't swim, and unable to escape; it's a wonder he was able to come out still feeling fine from it all.
Realistically the moment in Bridge to the Turnabout wasn't all that scary because we'd already seen Wright in a hospital bed so we could conclude that he was going to be fine whereas we didn't have the same reassurance here and it ends up being a little more tense as a result.
Of course he felt fine, it’s still his catchphrase after all
As long as he stays away from clocks, he'll be fine.
Hell yeah, you annihilated that puzzle! It is notorious for being one of the most obtuse in the series.
This entire section of the investigation is one of the reasons why I think SoJ is my favorite in the series. And I don't know why, but I love that Datz is there with you for the party. He just adds that extra bit of levity to the moment, and you don't really think upon first meeting him that he's going to be that important. I also have this weird thing where I saw Datz' face by accident in a YT thumbnail before I met him, so I was sort of spoiled that there was going to be a character that looked like that, but I would see that thumbnail over and over again, so his "normal" pose with his crazy mouth going all the way to the sides of his face was just imprinted in my head. And I would just keep thinking "Who the heck is this guy?" So when I finally did meet him, I can't even describe how absolutely weird it was to see him make any other pose. Pretty much any of them. So for some reason, that just makes me like him even more.
Soo yeah. I really, really, really can't wait for the next part. Heheheh...
I can’t wait for the next part too! What a crazy unintentional cliffhanger!
It’s like Justice for All again!
Yeah, that puzzle took me forever cause I didn't even consider the possibility of offsetting the parts.
And here I got frustrated that at how long she took after I figured out the solution.
Realize that moment Apollo was injured in court, he looked like Dhurke
42:17 That's one thing I love about the Ace Attorney franchise, adopted parents aren't really treated worse than biological parents. Even when they're not necessarily filling a heroic role in the narrative ( Phoenix during Apollo Justice and Dhurke during the course of this game, as an example), the game don't try to de-emphasize the love and bond that the parent and child have, and the only time adoptive parents are portrayed as bad parents is when they're also bad people (Von Karma falls into this category). I know it's become more common in recent years, but it's still nice to see
If anything, I'd say this series goes about 50/50 for adopted parents being good people, but I can't think of a single adopted parent who was a terrible person. Except von Karma, who I don't think Edgeworth has ever even referred to as his parent.
With how much the fandom has accepted this as fact it's hard to recall this sometimes, but it's never been explicitly stated that Edgeworth got adopted by von Karma. Franziska calling him her little brother could just mean SHE adopted him in her mind. Legally, I think Edgeworth shouldn't be Edgeworth but von Karma if he was adopted - at least I read something somewhere once where you are by law required to give your last name to your adopted children in Japan. Not sure why that is, might be to counter discrimination (also heard somewhere discriminating adopted kids is worse in more conservative cultures) or to prevent loopholes (maybe people are adopting adults to take over businesses to avoid some financial thing).
Aside from that, yes, it's good to see adopted parents being presented as nothing less than biological parents.
And she ends it right before the area to save again…
eh, that's just how blind LPs go sometimes.
Dhurke: *casually makes a dad joke about Neptune*
Apollo: Dad, I almost died.
Also if you pick Apollo putting his foot down, you get an adorable bit of flavour text of Daddy Dhurke being like “I remember when you used to throw your hissy fits.” I love these two so much. And while I’m not afraid of drowning, it’s probably the most realistic thing that’s happened in these games.
Omg i need that bit in my life!! I had dhurke and apollo for a week and i already love their relationship
Nothing helps bonding with your dad better than a near-death experience.
Don’t forget to show your badge to everyone, and check their profiles often.
This was raw slice of life fantastic character building. Sadly yeah that non spoiler rule should’ve been avoided for the better reflection of Clay and the courtroom. But I can DEFINITELY forgive him not wanting to mention Kristoph.
@@Kaempfdog It was a perfect chance to drop a mention to most (if not all) of Apollo’s cases! That stupid rule even prevents the vaguest of spoilers! If I was in charge of that kind of thing, here’s how I’d have the conversation go;
Apollo: “My first case put me through the wringer. It was the first time I ever met Mr. Wright, in person. I even joined his law firm shortly after.”
Dhurke: “I heard he’s a very accomplished lawyer, back in Khura’in. To gain a man like that as your mentor must’ve sent you over the moon!”
Apollo: “…Yeah, sure. After that, I had a case involving finding stolen magic panties.”
Dhurke: “Well, I’ve had weird cases from time to time as well.”
Apollo: “Then I had to solve a case involving a concert I went to. The lead guitarist was headed by this one prosecutor who calls me ‘Herr Forehead’. He was a tough opponent.”
Dhurke: “A prosecutor who doubles as a rock star?! …Did you enjoy the music at least?”
Apollo: “There was… one performance I liked…”
Dhurke: “What about the next case?”
Apollo: “The next one… it was pretty heavy. I don’t want to talk about it.”
Dhurke: “…Then I won’t pry further on that one. Any more after that?”
Apollo: “The next one introduced me to this one, ridiculous prosecutor who wields a samurai sword.”
Dhurke: “That seems pretty intense.”
Apollo: “Then I had a case where, mid trial, the courtroom blew up!”
Dhurke: “…Sounds like you’ve, um… seen quite a bit.”
Apollo: “You don’t know the half of it.”
Did *_ANY_* of that have spoilers? I mention neither witnesses, victims, nor especially culprits!

Actually Mr. Wright fall down from a cliff not being pushed plus the bridge was on fire
Trapped together in a cave without a direction or plan, Dhurke and Apollo finally get to doing the one thing they’ve been avoiding: truly talking to each other. Both opening up about their lives and their own struggles. With Dhurke finally apologizing to Apollo for his absence.
Despite the clashing of Dhurke’s determined optimism and Apollo’s cynical reproach, the two still find a way to come and work together and unlock the secret of the Founder’s Orb and, most importantly, thaw some of that estrangement.
And then, a little later, deep within that cave, Apollo is left all alone, with the water level rapidly rising. Unable to swim, all hope seems to have vanished for Apollo. But then, someone saves him from that terrifying fate He might have left Apollo on his own for all those years but when Apollo needed him most, Dhurke Came BACK!
A Dragon Never Yields, whether it's in fight for justice, or in it's quest to save Nayuta, or by saving Apollo as well. Dhurke, for all of his failings, finally lived up to that creed absolutely by rescuing Apollo right then and right there and it is AWESOME to see!
What a fitting moment to witness right around Father’s Day.
Dhurke and Phoenix are probably some of the best daddies in Ace Attorney, I feel like Dhurke was Zak Gramarye done right.
apollo almost drowning has got to be the scariest moment in the ace attorney games
Well, now we can add a few things to the checklist of Apollo’s busy day. He got to meet up with Pearl Fey, go mountain-climbing, explore a long cave tunnel with Dhurke, finally find the Founder’s Orb, learn a bit more about what Dhurke hopes to achieve with his revolution…and nearly drown…
Hearing Apollo relate the crazy couple of years he’s had really shows all the stuff he’s been through, and I think it put things into perspective for Dhurke of how much of his adopted son’s life he missed out on, not to mention how tough he’s had it. It’s a shame that continuity lockout means Apollo can’t go into depth about the specifics of past cases, like with Kristoph Gavin or the phantom.
That flashback of Dhurke saving Apollo and Nahyuta was so sweet, though, and seeing it happen again as Dhurke returns to save Apollo again really shows how much of a caring and devoted father he is. I think Apollo’s finally starting to forgive and feel grateful to have Dhurke back in his life again.
Also, ‘a dragon never yields’.
By "continuity lock out" do you mean they didn't want to spoil the past games?
@@alexread6767That’s what I mean, yeah, which is why, if they do reference past events, they tend to be vague about them.
I love Core 2016 so much, this song plays during every hype moment in the game and the intro is always so suspenseful.
This underwater journey and him talking to Dhurke about the secrets of the orb and his revolution and how it all went when he was a kid. This really was some Indiana Jones stuff going on and I respect the heck out it. There are few moments of a character just living their life quite like this and I just REALLY want to see more of it because this was fantastic.
And you can easily plug that promise of Dhurke coming back and Apollo going up to Clay Terran in the middle of the night so they could start the “I’m fine” catchphrase. It must’ve happened within a year tops and more than likely a month or two. And yeah, Apollo not bringing up Clay or the courtroom exploding, or taking down his corrupt boss IS weird. At most he doesn’t want to even mention that but he REALLY should’ve opened up. Thanks for the non-spoiler rule Capcom. We saw Gregory’s body so many times but don’t show Clay escaping the launchpad or his body. Klavier and Blackquill are GREAT but it just doesn’t do them the justice they deserve.
I would’ve liked it if Apollo mentioned how his clients were doing, after their trials. I can sort of imagine how that would go (Ignoring that spoiler-free rule, much like the first trilogy);
Dhurke: “Did you make any friends along the way? I mean, aside from your coworkers.”
Apollo: “Well, there’s this one guy who was a gangster-wannabe, but he’s gone clean since. There’s also this kid. He’s a musician here, and a very talented one at that. There’s also this one girl. She’s an artist. I visit her from time to time, to see her art. There’s this one girl who was afraid of me, even saw me as a monster when we first met, but we’re friends now. And a friend of mine, after his trial, achieved his dreams of being an astronaut, and conquered his fears in the process.”
All vague! Nothing about their cases specifically! I don’t even mention names here!
Drowning is one of my biggest fears too, seeing as I also can't swim. Good thing our hero Dhurke was here to save the day!
This is among my favorite investigation sections in the franchise just because of how it's just characters talking and bonding, working through things together
Just realized that when Apollo got blown up and was all bandaged up he dressed like Dhurke. Jacket worn like a cloak, bandage over his right eye. I'm surprised he didn't mention that very personal case to Dhurke here, as there would be an opportunity to show off that similarity.
29:31 I love this entire scene. Hearing Dhurke talk from the heart about his belief in his kids and returning Khura’in to its former glory, followed by that epic voiceover saying, “A dragon never yields,” it’s definitely probably the scene that made me realize how much I loved Dhurke.
I was worried about this part for you Lucah, I know it's a trigger for you. Hope you felt ok afterwards
i wish daddy dhurke would save me like that apollo is so lucky
Well, I wish I'll never be on a life-death situation like that, but to each their own I guess....
I'm loving how this case deviates from standard Ace Attorney gameplay with a "choose-your-own-adventure", puzzles, exploration, and even simulation. In this episode, we learn why everyone should know how to swim! This was like a drowning simulator, and can make people afraid of the water if they aren't already. How fitting near the eve of Father's Day to see such a loving and loyal father to his sons!
That puzzle box is one of the most clever puzzles in the whole series for sure. Only having one of the sections need to be partially rotated means you actually have to SOLVE the puzzle and aren't likely to just randomly stumble on the solution. Because no picture matches that third stanza you have to think like an Ace Attorney lawyer: turn your thinking around and think outside the box~
It’s a very Layton-esque puzzle.
The puzzle box was a good bit of thinking. (Okay maybe I was suspicious when you could go between but still)
27:07 Datz brought it up when he talked to Phoenix in the hideout in Case 3
Makes sense that Nahyuta can't exactly be free about his feelings, He is a government official as a prosecutor and Khura'in has secret police as 6-3 established. The prosecutor son of the most wanted man in the kingdom would be watched like a hawk 24/7/365 plus leap day
My big issue with Nahyuta is that this doesn't really hold for his two cases that are not in Khura'in. But he's at least as big an asshole in those cases as he is in the two Khura'in cases.
@@burk314 You don't think he can be watched outside of Khura'in?
@@RinJackson They wouldn't be able to watch him nearly as closely. Plus they wouldn't have as much interest in the outcome of the trials. Gar'an has a vested interest in fanning the hatred of lawyers in Khura'in and keeping the Divination Seance the centerpiece of the court. These don't really apply abroad, and even if she wants to promote hatred of lawyers elsewhere, Nahyuta damning them to various hells in the name of the holy mother or spamming them with putrid insults constantly is not going to accomplish that.
It's not like they can transcribe every little thing he does or says. He's often in courtrooms and high prosecutor offices, or the noisy public. It would've been a great moment to see the mask crack just a little, enough for the player to catch on that there's more depth, small enough for Nahyuta to talk himself out of it if the need arises.
You're not alone, the flooding part also scared the bejeezus out of me. I'm scared of drowning (or situations where you can run out of air in general)
It's always kind of funny to see people playing an adventure game for the first time go "How the heck were you supposed to figure that out?" directly after figuring it out (stumbling in to the solution still counts as finding it).
And in case it doesn't go without saying, I'll say it: you figured out the snag in that puzzle box faster than I did. Nice work, Lucah.
Dhurke is so badass he has voiced lines in a text based game. Outside of cutscenes. And shout bubbles.
You figured out the box so quickly! I couldn't figure out the third image for a life of me. Had to brute force it
The minute it said there was water coming into the cave I was like “oh shit this is not good for Lucah”
1:31 Lucah: At least you didn’t get pushed into a raging river, like Phoenix.
Umm about that…
Let's go Dhurke! What a cool dad! Also, Nahyuta what is going on, bud? So much tea!
Hope you're okay, Lucah. I know that was probably rough to get through.
Reese. I'm so sorry you had to go through that moment in this game. You did well to get through it. Now please, do something to calm yourself down.
4:14 Well no, he wasn’t really blown up, he was just crushed by falling rubble after the courtroom was blown up.
Always remember that you can press X to zoom in and B to zoom out.
What a tense episode! I'm personally not afraid of water but will never go swimming in the ocean or dark watery areas but also the only places to really swim are to my knowledge public pools and maybe a few lakes around where I live.
Despite nearly dying, seeing how much Dhirk loves his children and how proud he is of them is so heartwarming to hear. And once more he risked his own life to save Apollo’s. Dhirk is truly one of the greatest dad’s and how fitting for this episode to drop right before Father’s Day too.
You love ending it 10 seconds before it’s over don’t you 😂
I remember tearing up at this scene when I first played through it. The beautifully heartwrenching music didn't help T.T
5:41 They don’t have time to recap EVERYTHING this guy’s been through. Not to mention, I don’t think they’d mention him getting injured in the courtroom explosion here, since that’s a reasonably big spoiler from the previous game.
I never got the "never mention anything that happened in a previous game" stuff.
Honestly I think this is my second favorite in the whole series. The story is really good minus the two stories that don't fit in lol.
Like the video so Lucah can afford an optometrist.
I think when I first played the game when it first came out and made it to the part where Apollo was drowning I actually cried. I thought they were going to kill him there. I was so sad, Apollo’s my favorite playable character.
37:37 Maybe my single flaw with Dhurke as a character is him saying this line right here. Because boys ABSOLUTELY cry. MEN cry. And these boys are like 5.
On another note, another reason why I love Dhurke. He literally will do whatever it takes to save his children, even risk his life.
I'm just gonna throw this out there, Dhurke might be my favourite character in this game.
This damn treasure box took me longer than you to figure out, that I almost looked up a guide for it.
27:20 Yes, it was mentioned it Case 3 by Datz that Nahyuta was a Defiant Dragon at one point.
Dhurke’s voice is so booming and powerful that it gave me chills my first playthrough. And his motto of “A Dragon Never Yields” is super inspiring, I sometimes say it to myself to get work done.
I will only say this about the next part: We gonna spill more tea than the Boston Tea Party.
Well Lucah, I just spent the last like, month and a half catching up on your Ace Attorney LPs, starting by rewatching Apollo, seeing your Dual Destinies for the first time, and now, watching you play Spirit of Justice, which is my first time going through the game as well, and it’s been great, missed hearing all the voices you do for everyone, and all whacky humor you put into already hilarious games, as well as seeing your reactions to the plot. Also, as someone who is afraid of heights, I get how you feel with drowning in games, ironically I love the ace combat series but can’t play a game that long or I start to feel sick from the dives.
"I'm sure Apollo will tell his dad about the time he pioneered the jurist system on the country and helped to stop an assassin during a hostage situation"
Apollo: "So, I found some panties during a case and this prosecutor keeps making fun of my forehead "
Can't assume that the player has played those games and need to avoid spoilers, right? But the panties are a recurring theme with Trucy and they only give surface level traits of the prosecutors, so that's all free game.
@@burk314 I understand the videogame logic behind it... but I still think is hilarious
@@burk314
I am not sure if that's sound logic for a visual novel series though. What if they played TnT before JfA? They would get a massive spoiler there right away...
@@LadyJuse I'm not saying that I agree with it, but it does seem to be their rationale when making the games. They seem to dance around certain topics that could be seen as spoilers. Personally, I don't know why anyone would start with 6 without playing all 1-5 first.
I have to figure that trick with the box's code was the whole idea. It makes it a lot herder to guess the correct code because most people would assume all four parts would be flat, so you actually would need the song to get anywhere close. Otherwise, it'd hardly be more complicated than a Skyrim puzzle. XD
"I need a zoom function y'all" Well good thing there is if you look at the left side of the bottom screen XD
20:15 I am completely agreeing with you there, Lucah!
This puzzlebox was one of only like five moments in the series where I needed a walkthrough to progress! Because my brain answered the question "Why does it let you do half way?" with "Because weird design choice" immediately and completely deleted it out of my thought-process as a solution. Especially after the other 3 were complete pictures, making it seem like they all have to be!
I am not as mad at this as I am on some of the other moments (Brushels tell... armpit MY ASS, who looks there and why should someone?! -.-), because it was more my fault, still a little miffed about it^^
Always be suspicious of halfway states! Myst teaches you that too :P
I have played so many puzzle games and I honestly should have been able to solve that puzzle on my own, but I also was misled by my brain ('no way they put anything in here trickier than your most average escape room') and I think I also had trouble interpreting some of the lines and images.
This whole section is really well written IMHO. The worry as you get lost in the cave, the puzzle of the box, and the entire flooding sequence keep the player very engaged. That moment of dread when the exit is revealed to be blocked is also amazing.
“Dhurke’s been through some sh!t” ……………………..
Hey, remember when the court room exploded? And how Apollo defended his space cadet friends and the lost of a good pal who was also a cadet? No? Neither did he.
Stalagtites are the ones hanging from the ceiling. You can remember it because they have a t for top in them
I always remember it by them having to hold *tight* to the roof to avoid falling off.
I know which one you mean, but your typo there can go either way:
StalaCtite (ceiling)
StalagMite (floor)
Got to watch out for those Stalagbites on the bottom then...
@@ToastyMozart i remember it by a quote from qi, tights hang down (on washing lines)
Guys, this is Lucahjin we're talking about. They hang like t... like boobies. Not the birds.
Whenever I hear "one foot in front of the other," my brain always goes back to that old stop-motion Christmas movie.
"You put one foot in front of the other, and soon you'll be walkin' 'cross the floo~oo~oor..."
Wait a sec... Did Apollo brought the entire court record to the cave and all the evidence didn't get ruined by all the water?
Damn, you solved that orb puzzle really quickly. That puzzle took me ages. I needed the assist text for failing so many times, and even then, I needed to re-read it a few times before it really clicked.
Don’t worry Lucah, I’m not afraid of water but that cave scene had me on the edge of my seat the first time I saw it. It’s so nerve wracking.
The simplest way I've heard to remember stalactites vs. stalagmites (assuming you know how to spell them) is that "stalactite" has a 'c' for "ceiling", and "stalagmite" has a 'g' for "ground".
A funny way I remember the difference is that " tites come down." You can see from this immature innuendo why I appreciate Lucah's humour!
Oh, wow you ended at a real cliffhanger. This day was about to end soon. I wish you had continued a little longer.
32:35 Lucah, I have been invested in your AA series since the beginning, and this part is the one i was most fearful for you. I'm sorry you have to watch this knowing your thalassaphobia, but know that we love and support you. Once finishing this episode, drink some tea, listen to loud music, and take a hot shower. :)
Now I can finally say it: Back when I played through Spirit of Justice Dhurke became one of my new favorite characters of all time in this series!
I'm surprised Lucah didn't make any comment about that phalic statue deep in the cave.
I think she was concentrating more on Apollo nearly drowning than anything else
Well, at least that trunk and that hole in the ceiling meant that Apollo was going to be fine for a while... but that was definitely stressful, especially as Dhurke was exploring an unknown cave with no back-up air. I don't have a fear of drowning, just the ocean and most of it's inhabitants but I do have a fear of people getting stuck in nonsurvivable situations.
This is a great birthday gift thank you Lucah 🙌
Happy Birthday! 🎉
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday!!!
Apollo: this is definitely not in my job description.
Last I checked the Write Anything Agency had "anything" as its job description.
This episode left me with one question: who was in the cave that pushed them.
I was going to say my hunch but I might wait till the next episode to see if they say.
I've never understood why people get mad that Apollo has more than one origin story in his series. They're all well written and don't contradict eachother. More than one thing is allowed to happen in a characters past.
You know, Lucah made a great point! Why DIDN'T Apollo include getting blown up inside the courtroom in the little review of his carreer? Seems like it would be an obvious highlight lol
Also, this is my favorite part of this case, I have a deep fear of drowning too but this segment was so intense and emotional that I can't help but love it.
It’s for spoiler reasons. The developers assume not everyone who plays AA6 has played the other games, and they don’t wanna spoil anything big. It still annoys me tho.
AA5 opens with the bombed courtroom and him in bandages too so it's hardly a big spoiler. That's like objecting to seeing Sahwit in AAI 2.
Lucha: I need a zoom function!
You mean like the scroll bar on the left of the touch screen that says you can use X/B to zoom in/out?

35:48 "This probably didn't bother anybody else but me tho" Honestly Lucah? I *don't* have a fear of drowning and this was horrific
A lot of people have difficulty remembering which is which between stalactites and stalagmite. I remember by thinking that a stalactite holds on tight or it falls down.
I think if you had failed the puzzle again, they hint to the puzzle's trick with the pictures. You just solved it THAT fast.
Well, this was surely a cracking adventure. Anyway, here's politics.
A Myst puzzle indeed with that off-rotation!
apollo telling his dad about all he missed out: "panties, and also these two guys who are super thirsty for me". he knows what he's about.
I kinda figured out that if it lets you go in between, that has to be possible valid option
The drowning bit wasn't that bad for me, but it did make me think about you and a couple others I know that it would have been really rough for.
It’s funny because that trick on the puzzle is very Myst-like. The first Myst has this gears puzzle inside a clock tower where you pull levers to arrange some gears. But you can’t solve it by just pulling the levers, you have to pull and hold the lever down.
So, yeah. Those times when Myst threw you a curveball really paid off here.
PS: Apollo didn’t mention the bombing probably because they want this game to not spoil the previous games as much as possible.
I like to compare it to the elevator in Mechanical. There's a stuck-halfway button. Why is there a stuck-halfway button?
32:20 Yeah, I had a feeling you weren't gonna like this section
16:34 always nice to hear Homestar references even if brief.
Yes, Dhurke has definitely been through some shit
3:13 FORGE AHEAD!
Every step we take
Echoes in our wake
Winding 'round our fate
To forge ahead
Should we lose our way
Tire of all this pain
We won't be afraid
To forge ahead
Fearless hearts ablaze
No more time to waste
No, it's not too late
To forge ahead
I did warn you that you would face a fear sooner or later!
"This probably didn't bother anybody else but me, though" Nah, it bothers me too. I usually don't like it when such scenes are milked like this.I often need to take short pauses before continuing. Part of it is because it makes me, too, feel a bit uncomfortable. The other part is because it's pretty boring, because it's just a physical external bad situation that needs to be survived, rather than some sort of a decision or deduction to be made.
Yeah, this is why I left that warning at the start of this case.
A shame we couldn't say anything. Reminder: This is a blind LP, so yeah, it couldn't be avoided.
Garleans, eh? Well they do have a dot where a third eye would go.
