    I saw this video on my feed yesterday. In order to get the maximum satisfaction, I replayed the game (took me around 7 hours) before watching the video. Yes, I just spent 7 hours to get in the mood for watching a 20 minute video. That is how good Grim is.

    Did I ever tell you that I find everything about you inspiring? You make me feel like my twisted sense of humor and draw to darker themes and disjointed/experimental narratives is actually ok. Not only ok but actually something worth embracing.
    I'm not being facetious. I seriously adore your content and every time you release a vid it brings me oh so much joy :)

    Would be nice to eventually see "Pathologic 2" (23 of May, this year, is the release date for it), "Shadow of Destiny" (2001?) and "Oknytt" (2013?).
    Also maybe "Kiss: Psycho Circus: The Nightmare Child" which is an FPS published by already covered here multiple times "Gathering of Developers"? Or "Realms of the Haunting" which is also an FPS?
    Not expecting these two, to be completely honest, mostly because of genre differences.
    Thanks for enjoyable and informative content.

    This review actually made me buy and play it, because you said Grim Fandango in the beggining, so, as any sane person, I stoped the video, bought the game, played it and then I came back to watch the review.

    This game went so deeply under my skin that 15 years after beating it I became the embodiment of Olmec for at least a week during one of my manic episodes. Of course, I was telling everyone that my name was Quetzalcoatl, 'cos who the fuck knows Olmec. Also, as you said about Silent Hill, I found the game heartbreaking to the max. Well, you didn't say "to the max", I don't even know why I said it. Anyway, these goddamn crippled children, I can easily make myself cry just by thinking about them.

    I absolutely loved this game when it came out. I have to admit, I finished it once and never played it again, so my opinion is a bit dated, but at the time it all felt like deep psychological shit with a lot of Lynchian brainfucky stuff in the mix. Thick atmosphere and it felt much more clever and artsy than classic straight horror games of the time (like Phantasmagoria or Resident Evil). BTW, Grimbeard, have you played Tormentum: Dark Sorrow? If not, you should totally check it out, if only because of very nice art (also, apart from great art, it's a good little horror-ish adventure game and certainly quite grim. I think, you might like it).

Also don't stop that, even if it goes in a direction I personally don't enjoy as much. You're super freaking talented and I hope you work through your personal issues dude. Life's a bitch.
