On shoes there bird logo and Horus name, Horus is an Egyptian bird face god who avenger of wrong. And quite man story is about revenge of wrongful death of MC mother, he wears a bird face mask. And Horus one eye represent sun and other moon. And in game mc mother always showed in daylight while singer girl always shows at night. And two guys who were fighting over shoes in flashback, one guy gang name was SoL (means sun) and other guy runs club name moonlight. Game had symbolism but terrible executive and writing ruined it all.
The Goblin number game voiceover impression was way too good. Now I'm forced to believe it's actually oboe shoes doing all those commercials for terrible mobile ad presenters--games, I mean mobile games

Northernlion's stream of it was incredible was well. "You can run, Quiet Man, but you can't hear!"
3:26 oboe really pulled that mobile ad acting really well you can tell that man doesn't use youtube premium
It doesn’t have dolmen so it was destined to fail.
Just remember that at launch, they removed all of the audio in cutscenes and decided to put it all back like a week after launch.
getting put into the shoes of a deaf character might be an artistic statement, but it still sucks to play.
@@prointernetuserIt's about as pretentious as having a game about a blind character where you only see a black screen for 10 hours

I don’t think he would say that
He'd just make whale noises.
He's gonna punch the manager with his quiet punches

Seriously for a deaf guy you'd think there'd be subtitles whenever he looks at someone's lips.

I loved it when the quiet man gesticulated "It's quieting time", and them quieted all over the place
3:40 This voice over is too good! Honestly this is one of your best videos in a long time. Thanks for the good laughs, despite the bad game(s)
I loved it when Quiet Man said
Personally I loved it more when he said
If i lost my mom to shoe violence i would be pissed
The quiet man meets the man who never is the quiet one. A match made in somewhere.
Quite man had a Karen hair cut. Only a few know the struggle of his backstory.
My favourite part is when oboe says the quiet man, and The Quite Man stays quiet
Quiet Man is the coolest protagonist since Dolmen (from "Dolmen")
I liked the part when John Quiet said "..."
Can't wait for the Quieter Man
The Quiet Man? More like the Quiet DOLEMAN

You should really try Jurassic: The Hunted. Same developers as the Secret Service game you did, but with dinosaurs
Your humor is great your really a comedian you have your own way and it's great and that's the way you do it not any other way. It's refreshing
You know the game sucks when there’s not a single Bionicle reference

I still remember the trailer to this. Solely (and I have no idea why) for the moment when the guy pointed at his ear and wiggled no.
what i remember was NeoCranium watching the reveal trailer and actually facepalming when he saw the main character's haircut
Oh God, yeah your right. He does have Neo's hair. It must've been hilarious but also embarrassing for him at the moment.
I like the part were the queit man says and proceeds to punch all of those talkers

It was so funny when oboe had to look up a guide for the bar fight just to find out he had been playing the game wrong the entire time
I always thought you sounded like a mobile game ad voiceover
Oh hell yeah the quiet man. Someone had to make a less-than-second cutscene of a guy going through a door for this. For every door.

I accidentally pressed mute on my remote at the start of this video and I really FELT like there was a Quiet Man.

for a "quiet man" that dude sure does stomp loudly
Oboe says that The Quiet Man is the worst game of 2018, but from what I'm seeing, it barely even qualifies as a game.

Someone alert the Arkham Asylum subreddit: we found a 'man' game that lacks that weird bat iconography!
Comedy genius with the app games. Great stuff as always.
It wouldn't even be bad if the combat was good. This game is like if David Cage came out with a fighting game
I'm sorry, couldn't hear what type of man he is?
they also quietly snuck in a mode where there is audio
Games where you can't beat level 5 are still too easy. Next time try one of those games you won't last 5 seconds playing.
In one year from the release you should replay it but with sound
