theRadBrad you're hella awesome man, I've always watched you for games I either couldn't get myself or those I'm just generally interested in, which is every game you've played in the last 5 years 😇
Brad you might not see this but the game is supposed to about the human mind with psychosis which explains the voices at first I thought it was schizophrenia because you said something about mental health in the first episode and I looked it up and it said That The Hellblade team worked with psychiatrists and health organisations to create a realistic, respectful portrayl of psychosis. There might also be a chance that she's hurting herself since that's one of the symptoms, and kinda gives a name to the "darkness that if reaches her brain kills her", Just a little fun fact hope you found it interesting
Alejandro Albuja Jaramillo yea I really like games that seem to be out of this world but are just the conditions that a percentage of the world goes through and we just don't know about it, video games really opens people's minds to the world without people noticing
Vincent Tomasson no problem, I like to learn and see all the crazy things video game developers come up with, I started watching it with headphones and I couldn't continue I was getting to paranoid😂
I thought the same thing too. I think that based on Druth's story it seems that he committed suicide as a result of all the things that had happened to him. I think that maybe Senua witnessed all of this and that's what drove her into her state of psychosis. This might also be why she's committing all of those seemingly menial tasks to save the life of her already dead loved one (whose head was in that bag in the first walk-through). Depending on how the story is played and what happens at the end this may be either a story of her being driven to suicide (hence the "Darkness" reaching her brain and the game deleting your file) or somewhat recovering. At least that's just my speculation.
I don't know why but this game feels so calming. It's very beautiful. I love the whispering and the voices. That mean whisper voice , there's just something about it that's so intriguing. I love the way her voice sounds. It just seems to bring you into a whole nother world. I definitely like to play this game. But if it gets any scarier I may not be able to play it by myself heh!
Brad, your thumbnails are goals.. And this game is actually mind opening to what some people with mental health are actually going through. I'm excited to see you finish this series.
19:59 " Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! "
If you hold focus while fighting enemies time slows down and u can attack faster. Also you can dodge some of those heavy attacks instead of blocking all the time. just duck or roll. Loves your videos man.. been a sub for about 3 years. keep it up.
Brad I have been watching you since dying light and you have keep getting better and better I can't thank you enough for all the times I laughed because of you so because of all the joy you have brought me I feel it is only right you are my first subscribed gamer channel especially since I got this thing today I was using guest mode this whole time. Anyway I just wanted to say YOUR THE MAN DUDE. Thank you.
At 3:21 you could see a hole in the wall appear when you look through the arch. That's where you should have gone through first, makes it easier. Now you can enter the enclosure and open the gate from the inside. Go back through the same arch so it becomes a wall again and now you can walk over that wall to reach the second arch. Have to admit, it's sometimes difficult to see those changes but something always changes.
I fought this boss on hard my first time. I also went for Valravn first, so I had only gotten used to the normal, slow enemies. I did not expect to get killed in 4 hits as soon as the fight started, and that made me particularly angry, as I was going for a no death run. The following 2 tries redulted in the most intense fight I have had in years. I was on the edge of my seat, dodging and striking, the voices screaming at me to focus, which got me even more absorbed (I didn't know they meant to press the focus button until i fought Surtr lol). Because Valravn killed me twice, I felt like he had defiled me just as he did to Senua. At one point, all the fear disappeared. I could only feel a burning want to kill the boss, to get my vengeance. I was sharing Senua's anger. It felt almost unbelievable when I killed him after probably 150 hits. I had conquered a real challenge. Thank you so much, Ninja theory. I haven't been so absorbed in a fight since I fought Pontiff Sulyvahn. This game made me feel something real, and I'm so grateful that I played it!
Imagine I defeat him without doing focus button I had no idea. I was hearing the word focus, focus, but I did not apply it, and I continued to evade and defend until I won.😅
Wow Brad, Wow. first time i got to say something of note.. Extremely proud and thankful you do what you do. i don't have a lot. but i always wait to check out your channel before i go get the next "BIG" thing. i try to never follow the hype. that's why am a constant follower of your sir.. keep on keeping on.
Not at all. The more the video went on, the more he really was getting into ASMR territory without trying. It made the experience actually a lot more enjoyable because I wasn't jolted by a loud scream or anything like that. I could just relax and watch a Let's Play, which I really needed to do tbh.
More! I demand more! Lol! I've been watching your videos since Dead Rising 2, I even opened a gmail account so I could sign in on youtube in order to like all your videos and finally leave a comment. Love your channel, please keep it up, and as always... keep it classy my man!
Reminds me of fucking low lives that have nothing better to do then to come to a damn grocery store and steal the fucking thing...I swear our store has had more of those useless fucking things stolen than actually purchased.
Good job. I couldn’t deal with all that, I almost destroyed my controller. So watching you was a lot more entertaining then actually playing the game myself
i actually liked that she turns her head to the direction we are moving our camera ..in some games the character just looks straight, so when in time we are figuring out directions by moving our camera, the character just stands there facing straight like a dumb robot..but in this way, it feels like even the character is trying to find a way out by looking at the direction where we are looking
Sashka yes senua can dodge the attack 2 kinds of dodge: 1. Dodging back twice 2. Dodge 3 times by dodging left or right and back twice. That's why the voices said "Evade!" or "Watch out" or "Get out" when the enemy use heavy attack. Of course you can block but it will break your defense.
Thank you so much for putting this up. I was stuck at the part you finished at 13:33. Just bought the game on xbox. Can’t believe this is 2 years old. Cheers.
I don't know if you can see this but if you do I just want to let you know that I've been with you since your dead space series and the reason I'm saying this now is cuz I've finally got a RUclips account but you I just say is thank you for always being there for me on my worst days when no one else was there and you were the reason I kept going in life. You are my inspiration and you taught me how to push myself and I thank you but I don't think I can ever repay you but I will always stick by you
Just so you know man, you can evade Dark Souls style by pressing whatever the "X" button would be on PC and you can go into a slowmo mode when you see the little blue symbol during combat if you use your "Focus". Couple things you're gonna need when you face like 4 enemies at once later on lol.
Hey Brad!! I haven't been watching since my son left to join the army. Since he was the one who got me to watch you years ago .So I'm back and I'm ready!! Let's do this!!!😂
Martay Novak They didn't say you just have to try survive the game by dying less or not all. To me it's a challenge to see how skillful you are as a gamer.
This has been tested and it's not really true, its just to get you thinking and nervous about death. Gets you connected to Senua more, but it never really grows to your head, only during specific scenes will it seem to grow. Kinda a let down for me though as I wished there was some kind of hardcore mode, love the game anyways.
Wow this is the most stunning graphics ive ever seen in a game. Incredible how far we've come in gaming and im super excited to think about next gen! I grew up playing Rygar on Nintendo and now we have this!!?
This game is amazing and I am glad there is not a tutorial or tips to help along the way. Games need to go back to the days where it was just your wits and your controller.
Brad when you activate the story nodes can you wait for them to finish what they say. When you stray too far they stop or get underlaid with the other sounds
First video was prefect for my no black screens just great footage.. and I'm watching on my iPhone 👌🏼 been a fan for ever thanks for making days off relaxing
There is, but unlike most games this game really doesn't have a tutorial, it just kinda throws you in. Hell I fell off a branch twice before I found out I just had to lean the other way on the stick.
I love you brad! 🥰 Been watching you from the beginning but haven’t played any games for over two years. Went and picked up hellblade but ended up watching you 😂
DAmn Brad you really played the boss fight well.. I have heard that the combat is not as smooth and interesting as I see here but you really played well!! This is why I always watch your gameplays :O :) ;)
This game is amazing im really into the story I feel it talks about a psychatric issue like schizophrenia with all those delliusions and things But i cant get enough from it I dont know where this game came from but im in love 😍😍
Hey brad. Its my little brother birthday tomorrow. He'll be 14 and I would really appreciate it if you would give a shout out to "Sam" in your video for tomorrow... if you could. Thanks man. We'll be watching this series all the way.
3:42 "this is gonna take some serious maneuvering" literally after looking through to the solution twice... these puzzles are not difficult...............
Bro! Dang, I was about to turn this game off and never come back to it lol. I tried that door from the opposite side didn’t think to open from inside the room. Brilliant my guy. Thank you lol been stuck here for the last half hour
Here we go! Appreciate all the love on the first video. Keep it up and I'll upload another part in a few hours.
Hi Brad!
theRadBrad you're hella awesome man, I've always watched you for games I either couldn't get myself or those I'm just generally interested in, which is every game you've played in the last 5 years 😇
theRadBrad your the best
you are awesome man , i liked the game so much
theRadBrad i have seen that
22:55 "I feel like I'm better at combat in games when my save file depends on it."
-theRadbrad, 2017
So true. Brad, so true.
Khadijah Flowers ´im better in combat when i play on easy mode ´ -theradbrad-
I cracked up from that one. But also same lolol
Imagine this in dark soul series. 🥲🥲🥲
So true, Brad. So true. ***
I was quitting and reloading just in case. A to dodge is important, but I didn't trust block - kicking is effective.
When I spend nearly 30 minutes trying to figure out one puzzle then Brad gets it in 20 seconds. FML!!!! Thanks for the walkthroughs though man.
Brad you might not see this but the game is supposed to about the human mind with psychosis which explains the voices at first I thought it was schizophrenia because you said something about mental health in the first episode and I looked it up and it said That The Hellblade team worked with psychiatrists and health organisations to create a realistic, respectful portrayl of psychosis. There might also be a chance that she's hurting herself since that's one of the symptoms, and kinda gives a name to the "darkness that if reaches her brain kills her", Just a little fun fact hope you found it interesting
Glad to see i'm not the only one that thought about that, it was a dead giveaway at the moment she began to scratch her arm.
Alejandro Albuja Jaramillo yea I really like games that seem to be out of this world but are just the conditions that a percentage of the world goes through and we just don't know about it, video games really opens people's minds to the world without people noticing
Vincent Tomasson no problem, I like to learn and see all the crazy things video game developers come up with, I started watching it with headphones and I couldn't continue I was getting to paranoid😂
The Sixth wait so that's why it said in his first video that it work with a mental team well shit
I thought the same thing too. I think that based on Druth's story it seems that he committed suicide as a result of all the things that had happened to him. I think that maybe Senua witnessed all of this and that's what drove her into her state of psychosis. This might also be why she's committing all of those seemingly menial tasks to save the life of her already dead loved one (whose head was in that bag in the first walk-through). Depending on how the story is played and what happens at the end this may be either a story of her being driven to suicide (hence the "Darkness" reaching her brain and the game deleting your file) or somewhat recovering. At least that's just my speculation.
listen to the voices brad, they lead the way
gloW Muffin not all of them
True, but when he said he was lost he was talking over some guidance :)
gloW Muffin Heyy guys want some actionplay , feel free to visit me , I think You guys should definetely take a look at my work
gloW Muffin if you hear voices in your head listen to them cuz think about it there in your brain there probably smarter than you 😂
the more you black
and ur bike was lost
Im here watching this because I’m stuck here
Me too
Me too
Same! Lol😅
Same
Same i played this in 2019 and now i replay this game before the second game that's why i look these videos up.
I don't know why but this game feels so calming. It's very beautiful. I love the whispering and the voices. That mean whisper voice , there's just something about it that's so intriguing. I love the way her voice sounds. It just seems to bring you into a whole nother world. I definitely like to play this game. But if it gets any scarier I may not be able to play it by myself heh!
Brad, your thumbnails are goals.. And this game is actually mind opening to what some people with mental health are actually going through. I'm excited to see you finish this series.
19:59 " Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! "
Bain?
-Bane (The Dark Knight Rises)
Bane. The greatest beating Batman ever received.
Literally come to your channel before i buy any game thanks man
If you hold focus while fighting enemies time slows down and u can attack faster. Also you can dodge some of those heavy attacks instead of blocking all the time. just duck or roll. Loves your videos man.. been a sub for about 3 years. keep it up.
Omggg currently playing this helps
All the voices guiding her and you still listen to your inner voice and just go in circles.
I want another episode!!!
Hi Shirley! :D
Hi Shirley!
Yes ma'am
Amazing boss fight... Can't wait for the next boss
Part 3 please, Brad. This game looks amazing!
Brad I have been watching you since dying light and you have keep getting better and better I can't thank you enough for all the times I laughed because of you so because of all the joy you have brought me I feel it is only right you are my first subscribed gamer channel especially since I got this thing today I was using guest mode this whole time. Anyway I just wanted to say YOUR THE MAN DUDE. Thank you.

Have to admit, it's sometimes difficult to see those changes but something always changes.
thank you literal lifesaver
Dude that combat system needs to be used in more games. Its sooo beautiful
This is really getting good. Absolutely loving the fighting scenes. More, more, more!!!! :) Thanks man.
I admire your view on reviews. I really hate how people and critics rank movies, tv shows, and video games.
Listening to this with headphones are awesome and u can hear the lil voices
IAwesome Teddy that sounds creepy
This is the way to play this particular game my friend. It's a completely different experience without
I appreciate your help in these games brad
I fought this boss on hard my first time. I also went for Valravn first, so I had only gotten used to the normal, slow enemies. I did not expect to get killed in 4 hits as soon as the fight started, and that made me particularly angry, as I was going for a no death run.

Thank you so much, Ninja theory. I haven't been so absorbed in a fight since I fought Pontiff Sulyvahn. This game made me feel something real, and I'm so grateful that I played it!
💯💯this is the best comment I've ever read online. I agree 100%. Except i didn't die on my playthrough but once
@Busta Sounds like a personal problem. I'm on my second playthrough. No bugs, just a masterpiece.
Imagine I defeat him without doing focus button I had no idea. I was hearing the word focus, focus, but I did not apply it, and I continued to evade and defend until I won.😅
Still not tired of this in-game ASMR. Sick game too (no pun intended). Brad please keep playing this bro
I died so many times at about 25 but brad makes it look so easy I love this game !
Wow Brad, Wow. first time i got to say something of note.. Extremely proud and thankful you do what you do. i don't have a lot. but i always wait to check out your channel before i go get the next "BIG" thing. i try to never follow the hype. that's why am a constant follower of your sir.. keep on keeping on.
I can't explain it, but why is this actually kind of relaxing to watch him play?
Princess Robz definitely asmr...thought I was the only one.
true
Not at all. The more the video went on, the more he really was getting into ASMR territory without trying. It made the experience actually a lot more enjoyable because I wasn't jolted by a loud scream or anything like that. I could just relax and watch a Let's Play, which I really needed to do tbh.
Princess Robz he had a chill voice and he is pretty cool
Nope he is not watch him playing Hitman and you will know how much pain is it watching him play
theRadBrad is prob the best person on yt and in real life
i would love if she would read me a book.. i love her soothing voice.
😂
Exactly just something is just soft and light.
It sounds like she could make 3 little pigs sound like friday the 13th
Jaron Ashton no to dark & messed up
Sypticle the narrator or Senua?
More! I demand more! Lol! I've been watching your videos since Dead Rising 2, I even opened a gmail account so I could sign in on youtube in order to like all your videos and finally leave a comment. Love your channel, please keep it up, and as always... keep it classy my man!
that symbol on the door is actually a fidget spinner
fuck off with that, DO NOT ruin this for me.
Daniel Franz Oh no, It's a fidget spinner, it's going to ruin in the whole game! 😱
Reminds me of fucking low lives that have nothing better to do then to come to a damn grocery store and steal the fucking thing...I swear our store has had more of those useless fucking things stolen than actually purchased.
Mighty fun fact fidget spinners don't really help
Shut it don't bring your trash here
Good job. I couldn’t deal with all that, I almost destroyed my controller. So watching you was a lot more entertaining then actually playing the game myself
I died on this boss fight. I've never been so nervous about dying in a game. 😂
i actually liked that she turns her head to the direction we are moving our camera ..in some games the character just looks straight, so when in time we are figuring out directions by moving our camera, the character just stands there facing straight like a dumb robot..but in this way, it feels like even the character is trying to find a way out by looking at the direction where we are looking
Brad just so you know, when in combat, you can slow down the time, dodge, roll dodge, break their gaurds.
Jafar Noroozi yep... I found it out by listening to the voices when they said focus on the mirror....
Sashka yes senua can dodge the attack 2 kinds of dodge:
1. Dodging back twice
2. Dodge 3 times by dodging left or right and back twice.
That's why the voices said "Evade!" or "Watch out" or "Get out" when the enemy use heavy attack. Of course you can block but it will break your defense.
Thank you so much for putting this up. I was stuck at the part you finished at 13:33. Just bought the game on xbox. Can’t believe this is 2 years old. Cheers.
You are a brilliant RUclipsr and keep up the good work
Brad's getting better at solving puzzles, that's for sure!
yay you rock man
1calssy so much enthusiasm
Awwwww thank you I really like he's RUclips 💯✨💯
Holy moly! BRAD LOVES COMBAT SO MUCH. It feels like he's a small child who has seen wonder at it's best.
Uploaded 32 secs ago, even early for the damn notification! #idksomethingsquad 😂
I don't know if you can see this but if you do I just want to let you know that I've been with you since your dead space series and the reason I'm saying this now is cuz I've finally got a RUclips account but you I just say is thank you for always being there for me on my worst days when no one else was there and you were the reason I kept going in life. You are my inspiration and you taught me how to push myself and I thank you but I don't think I can ever repay you but I will always stick by you
The combat is fucking awesome !
Its Ninja theory bruh, there profession is hack and slash :)
You have to keep playing and uploading Brad! This game is truly something!
Just so you know man, you can evade Dark Souls style by pressing whatever the "X" button would be on PC and you can go into a slowmo mode when you see the little blue symbol during combat if you use your "Focus". Couple things you're gonna need when you face like 4 enemies at once later on lol.
You really nailed this one, Brad!
Hey Brad!! I haven't been watching since my son left to join the army. Since he was the one who got me to watch you years ago .So I'm back and I'm ready!! Let's do this!!!😂
Thank you for uploading another episode of this so soon! I love this game now and keep up the good work :)
Yes it's true your save file will get delete if you die to many times.
Wellington Lewis how many is 2 many times?
Martay Novak They didn't say you just have to try survive the game by dying less or not all. To me it's a challenge to see how skillful you are as a gamer.
This has been tested and it's not really true, its just to get you thinking and nervous about death.

Kinda a let down for me though as I wished there was some kind of hardcore mode, love the game anyways.
Martay Novak till the black stuff reaches her head
Its a lie
Wow this is the most stunning graphics ive ever seen in a game. Incredible how far we've come in gaming and im super excited to think about next gen! I grew up playing Rygar on Nintendo and now we have this!!?
Great game, brad. But whatever happened to Prey?
Richard Kaskiewicz fk prey boring game no wants it anymore
Daniel i want it
Nah am waiting for the other parts for the little nightmares DLC
Daniel How was Prey boring ?
Browser unknown it was dull and slow
Brad my good man, I've been with you since the beginning of resident evil 6. Love the content you put out keep doing what you do... And don't stop!
Dude this game is way different on hard mode. Definitely much more fun and a shit ton more enemies.
Is it cuz this shit look boring as hell
Young Breeze
Found the Fortnite asshat
This game is amazing and I am glad there is not a tutorial or tips to help along the way. Games need to go back to the days where it was just your wits and your controller.
Haha Brad is too funny "I'm a little overwhelmed by this area" well yeah that's the main point of the game to immerse you into her mind.
I'm in love for this game man, keep doing the videos dude.
Brad when you activate the story nodes can you wait for them to finish what they say. When you stray too far they stop or get underlaid with the other sounds
This game keeps getting better!!!!!
Man this game's atmosphere is so horrifyingly beautiful! Hurry for the next upload brad! I need to know more of Senua's story!
First video was prefect for my no black screens just great footage.. and I'm watching on my iPhone 👌🏼 been a fan for ever thanks for making days off relaxing
looks great, a little repetitive at this point but early days, looking forward to seeing more exploration
I'm glad you like playing games like this Brad, I hope you keep on playing games that are involved in Psychology etc.
He missed the door he looked through first and it made me so mad cause he said he couldn't find it
never clicked on a video so fast!
This game is uhh...?...very UNIQUE???
But Keep doing what you doing Brad!!!👍
TheMadMSG its a shit just running , no fighting nothing asshole shit game boring
TheMadMSG a good game for those who likes vikings and nordic mythology :) (sorry for my english)
My fevorite series so far. You rock rad.

Drop Part 3 I'm Sooooo CURIOUS😭😭😭😭
Awesome channel man. Been watching for a few years

please keep uploading this, im really digging it Brad
Shouldn't there be a way to do like a sidestep or roll away? I mean? Is there? Would make it easier
Chickenlover2310 yes there are it's space bar
Dark souls lol
There is, but unlike most games this game really doesn't have a tutorial, it just kinda throws you in. Hell I fell off a branch twice before I found out I just had to lean the other way on the stick.
It encourages you to rely of your thinking and knowledge of other games, This game had psychological elements afterall.
How can somebody dislike RadBrads video?
30 years ago God said let there be light, And so Brad was born
I love you brad! 🥰 Been watching you from the beginning but haven’t played any games for over two years. Went and picked up hellblade but ended up watching you 😂
It will be nice if you would listen to what the stones says because it gives stories like this so he can see it
This is an awesome game!!! Keep doing what you do Brad!!! Lots of love and support!
I was waiting for this to be submitted will I was waitin for my PS4 to load well so many players on playing it's hard to load so I resorted to yt
