    The reason the protagonists of both Ghost Head and 3 are named Alyssa is because even in Japan, 3’s protagonist was named Alyssa. Since Ghost Head came out years earlier, its translation team just chose a random name to use instead of Yu (her original Japanese name). The dev team of 3 didn’t pay any attention to the translated name of Ghost Head’s protagonist and just chose their own. It was one insanely unfortunate coincidence.

    Fun fact: the Corroder enemy is based on John George Haigh, the Acid Bath Murderer, that was convicted of six murders- Corroder even shares his name sans the 'George', which is kind of interesting. None of the other stalkers are really direct references to actual killers- except maybe the Chopper's name, as a shoutout to the Aussie Chopper.

    Honestly, this game is a guilty pleasure of mine! All the over the top animations, weird story, the magical girl stuff, everything is just... Uh.. amazing, to say the least. I remember first playing this game when I was, like, around 10. It blew my fucking mind! Even back then I couldn't take it seriously, but it sure gave me a good laugh! I feel like if they polished the gameplay a bit more, and gave it a different name (so that it doesn't relate to CT in any way), the game would have been successful!
    Though the publisher (and partially, developer), at the time, was responsible for single handedly ruining one of it's IPs with just a single game (Megaman X7), sooo~
    Speaking of the PS2, I'm surprised that you haven't talked about the Fatal Frame/Project Zero franchise yet. I know, I know, you said you're gonna do it next year and all that, but it's still surprising you haven't played it up to that point given that you're such a big survival horror fan

Even if I'm not necessarily interested in the game you're covering, I just find your style, your format and your voice relaxing-- even comforting. About 2 years ago (around when you uploaded this), I was going through a bit of a rough period, and I discovered your channel through your Mario series reviews. After that, I'd watch a couple of your videos a day, and I dunno. Just thank you, man.

    I'm in the middle of a Nitro Rad binge, and a cool thing I want to highlight for anyone else returning here: The final boss has a version of your instant kill move that he can use on YOU. Whereas Alyssa shoots an arrow to the sky that punches a hole in the clouds and rains a giant lightning bolt onto the boss, he opens a hole for a big ass SKULL to peer out of and shoots a beam out of it's mouth down onto you.

    I would say this is an excelent way to get someone into horror games just like some RPG Maker games. I've been getting into the horror genre a bit more these past couple of days after watching Hereditary (which I highly recommend to anyone that wants to get into the horror genre of movies), so I really agree with all of that.
    Now to find a copy of Clocktower 3 & try it out when I can.

    Here's a funny story I have with this game:
    When I was a child, say like 6-8 years old, I used to live in this diminute town in the boonies and this town had what at the time we used to call a cyber where we would rent a console on the spot like it was an arcade and they would also burn cracked PC or PS2 games on CDs to take home for a price. At one of my birthdays my mum bought me like two videogames from this funny place which she indicated, in her own words, to be "something medieval". One of those was this game, the other one was Call of Duty Big Red One and I had forgotten this one because of how boring it seemed to me at the time. I recognized the game as soon as the mansion scene came up on the video.
    Jesus Christ what I would give to be back in those days.

    2) the final fight with the guy. I had him tethered and hit him with the finisher, only for him to BLOCK it and I had to do it again!

So I hit him with mini shots until I could tether him and then hit him with the three tethers + ultimate attack. That is when they showed him unphased and the fight began again. He managed to BLOCK THE YLTIMATE ATTACK WITH HIS AXES! That is hard core and freaked me out when I played.

I used to dislike them, but then I tried it out in REmake, took me 20 minutes and I was used to them. They ARE the superioir control scheme for games like this. Okay, I can understand for games like Haunting ground, you have to dodge quickly and such, tank controls would feel a bit clumsy for that game. But SH4 and Rule of Rose NEEDS tank controls.

    The Burroughs family mentioned in this game is indeed the same Barrows family mentioned in the first two games. Turns out Alyssa's family, the Hamilton family, originated from the Burroughs/Barrows and they had rejected the demon worshipping side of the family. The Rooder family blood also runs in the Hamilton family, so they also have a connection to the Burroughs/Barrows.
    As for Dick, he's a member of the Burroughs/Barrows family as well.

    Haunting Ground is legit, I'm really excited for you to cover it next year. Definitely leans more into horror, still has a pretty ridiculous plot but I think it's executed in a darker and grounded way. The stalker themes too during chases is genuinely some freaky stuff, and I think it's a close comparison to how freaky and intense the final boss theme is from Silent Hill 1.

    Really hope you do Remothered, which started out as a Clock Tower: The First Fear remake.
    As a side note, the Rooder powers reach their peak at 15, then start dwindling, before they disappear completely when the girl turns 20. The powers themselves usually start surfacing in their early teens.
    And the reason Alyssa's grandfather wanted to do the ritual, was because it would allow them to become one and stay together for all eternity. He had already lost his beloved daughter Nancy when she got older and wanted to marry, so he refused to lose Alyssa the same way, especially as he was getting older.

      It's not scary at all, just more challenging. Particularly , enemies are faster, Alyssa panics easier, boss attacks in battles are stronger and so and so , however the item set is the exact same as the normal game and so is the item amount , unlike Haunting Ground that has less healing items on hard mode. Doesn't help either that all the preset encounters and ''triggers'' for an enemy to appear are ALWAYS the same (Sledgehammer in appearing in the stairs room in the Music Hall, Corroder in the blind spot when you are gonna go upstairs in the Rand Houser, SccissorWoman behind the book shelf after you read that one note from Alyssa's Grandfather in the library, ALL the appearences of the Chopper in the Elevator during the sewer part ... and so and so and yes i have played the game waaay too many times) So yeah, since everything is essentially always the same you dont get a surprise factor after the very first playthrough, not even in hard mode , unlike once again HG, that has a select ''preset'' stalker appearences but they appear more randomly than in CT3.

I went back and watched all the Siren videos too, loved them as well.
    I really love the way the scripts are written, and the tone Nitrorad gives each time, analytical with hints of anecdotes and personal touches, I really feel like I learn a lot about each game in such a short amount of time. Only thing I'm not super into are the little intro clips but, that's just me, plus I know it's harkoning back to Nitrorad's performance history so, not much of an issue.
