It's so fun to watch :D You never know whether at any given moment you are going to be marvelling at his brilliance or facepalming hard enough to break your nose!
If I might offer two non-spoilery clarifications about this game's interface: "Unknown" are not additional passengers, but instead allow you to assign a rank, without assigning a name. Also: the game contains a glossary at the end of the book. Please look at it for the definitions of e.g. midshipmen. That doesn't refer to regular sailors just in the middle of the ship…
17:10 female voice, let me go, - jon: important female, Ahaa! part of the Formosa family 20:59 female voice, miss lim?. 22:30 text: miss lim, it is to late 22:52 on list: 23. Bau-Lan Lim , passanger, Formosa. - Jon has no clue about the female?
Jon when it says “unknown sailor” or whatever it doesn’t mean that there was a mysterious unknown sailor on the ship, it means that you can put in that you know their rank but not their name.
Get more likes on this one. Also, can anyone tell me, is it worth playing it myself even though I've watched Jon play? Is there alternate things that happen in different playthroughs?
@@JeffreyHead1 There are three different endings, but they are based on how complete you get the book before you submit your report, not on what actually caused the deaths on the ship. I recommend that you stop watching at this point and play it yourself though - still tons of puzzling and discovery Jon hasn't done yet, so it's still a very fun deduction game for you if you like this kind of puzzling :)
I missed this myself when I played the game, and it screwed me over for a while but was actually a helpful thing to "ball park" certain individuals. Great game, some really unique puzzling and deducting I think.
I liked "Stop your cheating? Was he pretending to be sick?" meanwhile people are playing a CARD GAME RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. Also, on the ground outside one of the locked doors near the start is a key. presumably for that locked door
@@JeffreyHead1 You can't pick up any items in the game. The only way to open doors is to leave a soul imprint of the open door by entering a memory in which it's open.
I got this game for christmas and finished it recently, 23 hours cumulatively, one of the best detective games ever. My only regret is that Lucas Pope has said he probably won't make another game like it.
@@ledzeppelin27 In his first dev blog about the game, in May 2014, he wrote "The lower bound for finishing this game is around 3 months but realistically I think it'll take me around half a year." The game came out in October 2018.
@@TheSurprisePizza Ah, the George RR Martin approach. Well, can't say it didn't work out. I bought this game after I saw this video and completed the game yesterday, and it's amazing. Wish I could find another like it or just erase my memory of it.
Two things, when it says unknown while you’re trying to name someone it’s so that you can assign someone a rank without knowing their name, ex: unknown topman. Second the journal has short descriptions of the various jobs on the ship like midshipman.
Son of a! I've played this game twice and BOTH times I had problems figuring out exactly what happened to the guy who was the first death you see in Soldiers Of The Sea. And Jon just up and done that immediately after literally not being perceptive enough to see a guy named Syed in the crew list. Absolute madness, I love this series!
Jon, important note: There are no "unknown" people on the list; see the numbering next to the names. The "unknown" options are, as far as I understand it, so you can set a character to be an "unknown midshipman" if you happen to know he's a midshipman, but are unsure of his name as of yet.
as someone who does not have any naval experience or knowledge of ship's ranks, it makes sense to me... It would be extremely helpful if you would actually provide some information instead of just criticizing/despairing.
@@J624 Every term you need to know is in the glossary at the back of the book, including all ranks and positions. It's on Jon for not checking it when he comes across something he doesn't know the meaning of.
Topman isn't 'someone on the top deck', but one of the able seamen who works predominantly in the upper rigging. Midshipman is a young gentleman, taken on board to prepare for his lieutenancy after sufficient education and experience. He isn't usually stationed in the middle of the ship, but is one of the petty officers
Lukas Pope is a genius, this game is an absolute masterpiece. I had to brute force some deductions when I played it and now that I see your gameplay I notice a lot of things I haven't before.
You did fine with the topmen Jon! That was some good deducing. Now, if you want a REAL challenge I dare you to try and identify the man in the butcher's apron managing the butchery of a cow or the guy who always seems to be holding the ship's wheel for some reason!
Before watching I'm going to guess Jon has completely forgotten the plot and characters after all this time. Still, glad to see the return of the return.
Useful tip: When the game confirms a set of three names you can go back through the journal and know that any ones you have complete that weren’t confirmed are wrong.
The Portuguese named the island itself Formosa (modern day Taiwan), so I imagine the Europeans called the island that regardless of the nation that ruled it?
Jon just a couple hints, when a face is blurry, you cant ID them in any way. When it clears up, you can either by their accent or by who they're around in pictures/while sleeping or where on the ship you find them. Also when you're reading the transcripts, the dialogue with the X next to it is the person who died.
There are a couple of people you can ID right off the bat before they're unblurred. The helmsman standing at the helm in the drawing, the topman with New Guinean tattoos, the only Frenchman on board is wearing a typical French navy marinière, the artist is the only one not pictured, the bosun carries around a bosun's whistle. There are also probably some additional very obscure things I missed.
I feel like in a world where demons riding quill-flinging giant crabs might crawl out of the sea (?! crabs aren't known for their ability to swim...) people would have the sense to stay home.
SPOILERS: All the creatures came with the cursed shell the Formosans brought in the big box. I think we can assume that this is not how sea travel normally goes.
Ah excellent. Good to see this return, and this time the delay means I have since picked up the game on the holiday and played through it, so I don't even have to worry about spoilers. But please Jon, realize that "Unknown " is a placeholder that you can use when you have figured out what people do on the ship (like marking all your Topmen friends who you don't know the name of)
Also you are right on with the people talking to others in their own language! The scene with the first death from the illness, there are multiple people speaking to each other in Russian, gambling I think.
What an utterly frustrating watch lol, so many obvious things just ignored, and yet you identified one of the hardest people in the game (Bosun's Mate) almost immediately
34:50 The orlop deck is at the water line but also full of stuff, so there is a corridor along the wall to give carpenters easy access in case of a leak.
Jon the unknown tag is simply for when you know what type of crewman a person was but you don't know the name. It is to help you identify crew type and who they are in other scenes rather than being an actual person.
You can ID someone before their point of death by going to the pictures in the journal and selecting the person there. Also, you can quickly reach there by opening the journal whilst focused on someone's face (their location in a picture shows up in tha background)
I feel like it needs to be said that the "Uknowns" in the name selecting page don't refer to actual people, but serve as placeholders if one suspects that kind of person did something. Other than that, I'm pleasantly surprised by Jon's perception! What an incredible series.
Jon, just so you know, in ambiguous situations like the dude who died on top of the spider-crab, the game is lenient. So long as you get one of the likely causes of death, it'll accept it. E.g. that poor dude was both spiked and on fire - the game will accept either conclusion.
Another important thing is that it's easy to get caught up in the whole, solving puzzles bit and forget what your actual *role* here is. In that you're here to determine what happened for the purposes of an insurance company Sometimes what you pick as the murder method, like the guy who could have been spiked, or shot, affects the ending a little. I found it a bit annoying that things got locked in place, as I'd have gone back and changed some if I'd have known, like the hanged guy
@@FluffyDragon Any insurance company worth it's salt would file Eldritch Spider-crabs as "Acts of the Old Gods" and not issue a payment, since the policy doesn't cover that.
@@SodlidDesu Oh is worse than that, it's not that the payments don't get issued.. it's that they'll *fine* the family of the people who did the murders, or take away medals, or other varied stuff.. been a while, forget specifics. Even if they were completely accidental, or blah potentially. I felt bad about it in the end
Two non-spoilery things: -If you press the Open Journal button while zoomed in on a face, it brings you to their page on the drawings. Super helpful. -The "Unknown Topman", "Unknown Midshipman" etc. aren't people on the ship, they're just there to help you pre-emptively assign people ranks. E.g. if you know someone is a Topman, but not *which* topman, you can call them an unknown topman.
As a tip: you can use the Unknown Topman (among other rankings) to mark a persons job, on the chance you might learn their ethnicity later to help with your deductions
They're not photos Jon, they're *_sketches!_* The artist himself is sitting on a chair behind the Formosans in that memory, sketching that very scene you use to identify crew members in the book. You already I.D'd him in the previous video, he was squeezed to death by the Kraken _(the very first person killed in 'The Doom')_ on the bow of the ship.
Upload more of this Jon I said I hated you but the return of obra dinn Is one of my favourite games and it is so good to have this massive intertwined story between a couple of people that you can't seem to figure out but then you find one bit of evidence that completely changes everything and puts all the pieces into place perfectly it so satisfying so please upload more Jon or I'll hate you forever

Oh, a nice treat on Friday morning! I bought the game after your first video. Still got a headache from the graphics and camera, but I finished the game. It's also much easier to watch with the various cuts, instead of walking towards the scene exits every time! But what will I pester you about in the PATREONCASTS now?
Honestly, stereotyping is basically the ONLY way to identify some of these folks. Of course, if you don't know the stereotypes... (New Guinea tattoo guy stumped me so hard!)
@@Msatthew Apparently they're really distinctive to anyone familiar with the culture. What's sad is that I SHOULD recognise them. I'm Australian, New Guinea is just north of us. Granted, I'm not living in the tropics, but still! Not that far away!
I actually just finished up most of the games chapters (other than the one locked off). At about half to two thirds of the crew properly identified, so itll be nice seeing Jon struggle through with -100 perception.
So happy you're finishing games now! Love this game, it's going to be great seeing you figure this out! This will surely be good for your perception... Right?
Funny, I made the same mistake about the tattooed guy being Charles miner. You figured out that the people of the same rank grouped together/wore the same clothes way faster, though.
You can tell that Jon has so much on his plate, in that it took him two months to get back to this. Maybe we shouldn’t demand so much of him. Do as much as you want to, Jon, but if you ever want to drop anything, that’s fine by me. I’ll be sad, if it was something I liked, but not upset at ‘you’. -Also, where the heck is Fallout 4 YOLO?...
A bit of advice if youd didn't know already. Some people can die from different reasons, such as the guy who was shot by the krakken could also be said as to have been shot by the person who lit the fuse. Sorry if my grammar is a bit bad.
Jon the unknown in the crew list doesn’t actually mean people who are unknown it’s just a way to title certain people if you don’t know who they but you know there a midshipman or something like that

Jon flipflops between brilliance and obliviousness on a minute by minute basis.
Sometimes he wears glasses for +1 perception. Most of the time he loses them though, due to his permanent perception debuff.
It's so fun to watch :D You never know whether at any given moment you are going to be marvelling at his brilliance or facepalming hard enough to break your nose!
A hand's breadth from becoming unwound!
His deduction skills are hilarious

Jon: "I don't know, inside this dialect, what names are male versus female".
Victim, in heavy accent: "Ah, hello signor Nichols".
Jon: "Hmmmmm, the victim might be Italian 🤔🤔🤔🤔 ..maaaybe."
17:10 female voice, let me go, - jon: important female, Ahaa! part of the Formosa family
20:59 female voice, miss lim?.
22:30 text: miss lim, it is to late

- Jon has no clue about the female?
Jon when it says “unknown sailor” or whatever it doesn’t mean that there was a mysterious unknown sailor on the ship, it means that you can put in that you know their rank but not their name.
Incredibly helpful for placing the topmen as their rank and see where else they pop up. (Something you were thinking of doing off-hand)

Jon. A midshipman is a naval officer who doesn’t have a rank yet. It isn’t somebody who’s literally on the middle of the ship.
He might be though.
also historically most of them were very young some even being as young as 12
Look at the map. He literally is.
Normal sailors have hammocks in the front, officers have cabins in the back.

He figured it out eventually.
Jon, while looking at an unconscious man with a club on the ground next to him: "This man was clearly stabbed!"
What is a club but a really dull sword?

YES Loved the first part of this, and completely missed it as a game last year, but finally it's back
Someone doing butchery, like I don't know, a BUTCHER!
EvilLamp6 what no that can’t be right that would make too much sense
I love that out of every single Asian nation for a royal family they went with Formosa.
The Republic that barely survived a single year.
I think this game explains why they failed to survive! They were kidnapped (or something!) :-)
The Portuguese named the island itself Formosa (modern day Taiwan), so I imagine the Europeans called the island that regardless of the nation that ruled it?
Key members of the royal family dieing at sea could have contributed to the republics collapse.
I mean
If it's a royal family odds are good that we're not talking about a republic
Jon doesn't realise who the guy ( with a distinct accent) butchering the animal is.

When it clears up, you can either by their accent or by who they're around in pictures/while sleeping or where on the ship you find them. Also when you're reading the transcripts, the dialogue with the X next to it is the person who died.

There are also probably some additional very obscure things I missed.
The mates as well when you have 3 of 4 of them already ID'd but the one left won't be unblurred by the game until later...
I feel like in a world where demons riding quill-flinging giant crabs might crawl out of the sea (?! crabs aren't known for their ability to swim...) people would have the sense to stay home.

So happy you're finishing games now! Love this game, it's going to be great seeing you figure this out! This will surely be good for your perception... Right?
I can’t watch as I plan on playing it myself, But I’m glad Jon’s playing it again.
You're largely safe, just don't read the comments.
I love Jon but he's a very defective detective.
YES. been waiting for this
Funny, I made the same mistake about the tattooed guy being Charles miner. You figured out that the people of the same rank grouped together/wore the same clothes way faster, though.
been waiting so long for this
You can tell that Jon has so much on his plate, in that it took him two months to get back to this.
Maybe we shouldn’t demand so much of him.
Do as much as you want to, Jon, but if you ever want to drop anything, that’s fine by me. I’ll be sad, if it was something I liked, but not upset at ‘you’.
-Also, where the heck is Fallout 4 YOLO?...
Sef Era “we shouldn’t demand so much of him” also “where’s fallout 4 YOLO” kinda contradicting yourself
For the record this is just a joke
2020 is not the year of perception for Jon.
But that of hindsight it is.
48:52 you can see Syed on the list
I got 9 in my first playthrough…
so letˋs see if I get destroyed by Mr -1 Perception
it is -2 maybe -3 here.
A bit of advice if youd didn't know already.
Some people can die from different reasons,
such as the guy who was shot by the krakken could also be said as to have been shot by the person who lit the fuse.
Sorry if my grammar is a bit bad.
I would VERY much like to see more within the next 5 decades.
Obra Dinn: The Topmen Incident
Welcome to 2023, we still do not know what happened to the poor souls of the Obra Dinn.
Please realise at some point that #54 has the name syed.
Can’t wait for part 3!
Yes, finally more of this game, yes Jon, try to use your negative perception of about -100, go give it a good crack.
I really love this game, tho I kind of sucked at it myself. I am enjoying watching how you work the mystery out.
Jon the unknown in the crew list doesn’t actually mean people who are unknown it’s just a way to title certain people if you don’t know who they but you know there a midshipman or something like that
waited for this for so long, what a good friday morning.
For Charlie, the game accepts spiked, burned, and even accidentaly sworded by the other midshipman.
Title shoulda been Return of the Return of the Obra Dinn
Also, port walk. Maybe somewhere where you can *walk* along the *port* side of the ship.
