    Three guys watching the game, not one noticing the instructions about how to block, questioning how to not take damage because they all failed to read, that's such typical SGS behavior.

    • @steffenknoll9136
      @steffenknoll9136 5 месяцев назад +21

      Exactly, as usual:
      "How do you not take damage?"

    Your partner teleporting to you whenever you look away is 100% inspired by that one Sherlock Holmes game where they didn't give Watson a walk cycle, so he only moved when you weren't looking. You can't convince me otherwise.

    I'd like to think that Demon Blood is actually a teaser for Airdorf's next game, in an alternate universe where Father Garcia failed to help John Ward and is now blasting his way to hell to rescue him.
    40:46 What a callback from Alex. Played the remake of that game way back in 2009. One of the first roguelike games I played. Also one of the weirdest.

      yeah i'd believe it was made by a small team over multiple years maybe. it's really funny when people who didn't live in the 90s/early 2000s make stuff set in those periods without doing any research even though the research would be fairly easy.

  • @evilbob840

    I can confirm: "Weez the juice" is only in Encino Man. Bio-Dome has "Free Mahi-Mahi" and the newscast where they replay the killing of a clown like it's the JFK assassination.

    • @evilbob840
      @evilbob840 5 месяцев назад +2

      I don't remember Bio-Dome that well, but "weezin' the juice" was in the Encino Man trailer. Thanks to working at Blockbuster back in the day, I've seen the Encino Man trailer a few hundred times (it was on one of the in-store demo tapes).

      - Overthinking after talking over crucial information

      - Inuendo at akward moments
      - Bad catchphrase after a hard fight
      - Odd appreciation of monster design
      - Sudden frustration with controls
      - Bullying Davis with the least creepy element of the game

    • @KPNGU
      @KPNGU 5 месяцев назад

      @rainjay2516 is it really? It may be me misremembering but the tune of the old vinyl player that plays in Layers of Fear is was what I was referring to. They would sing tunes from it and just replace the words, in different series they would always bring that tune back up. If it was from that originally then I may have gotten it mixed up. I'll take a look at it and see, maybe it'll jog my memory

    • @KPNGU

    Davis was right. They pretty much reverse-digitized Quorra to be in the real world in Tron Legacy. It's the same thing that happens to Sam and Kevin. It isn't as if in the movie they're just digitally scanned and put in the game; their entire bodies are broken down. Upon their return, the system reconstitutes their matter. They did this for Quorra in the same manner. It's like an extremely advanced 3D printing machine. With both Flynns they scanned their bodies to store their pattern to later "print", but for Quorra they had the model already locally stored to print.
