Tough bastards those ogres

I concure

Loving the hospital environment, very creepy and a good adaptation of the original. Keep up the good work!

44:40 I am placing you down as a Marmite hater!

Wow...what a hospital story for you and a gypsy curse?

Nice feeling smashing those nurses faces in..

Perhaps combating the slimes from range would be an advantage.

Nope..didnt get the he fell into the water reference

Why are slimes so strong in this game? Is it just flipping the trope of them being weak on its head?

It turns out that final bone is exactly where I don't want it to be. Right in the middle of the slime area.

Aww your character is now a woman?? Did perren have a sex change?? Fark sakes lol Edit..I commented before watching further lol

Just..one..moment

Well im near sighted..so watching TV( not that theres anything on amongst the shit these days) and driving i need my glasses yes

Obviously what I meant by "imagine Pyramid Head as the doctor" is that, perhaps, from his point of view, he is just a doctor or a servant digging deep to find the exact therapy to fix these people and the town of Silent Hill is his hospital or treatment centre. Sometimes the treatment fails and his subjects break. Sometimes they survive. It's pretty hard to imagine him as a dispassionate creature given most of his behaviour but it's an interesting notion.

Great episode Raph and interesting to hear about your school days

Great episode. The only thing missing is more Super Mario platforming

its modern Arx Fatalis.

17:39 Here you missed the skeletal limb of Owen. You can see it behind the group of 5 stalagmites, on that ledge behind the palisade. You just walked right past it. When you shortly turn to the right, the video shows it above your hand, at 17:49. 38:30 Here while bashing the crate, you see another body part barely peeks out over the crate. Being at over 18 out of 13 carry capacity, when you try jumps does not help. I did the jumps with roughly 12 out of 13 carry capacity. The jump to the ledge with the ladder and crypt below the chapel, I did directly at the torch, as previously stated. Directly below the bridge, it fails for me too. The ledge at the torch seems to be a bit lower and closer, or maybe it is just "stickier". I had 2 Athletics skill, and it was so easy, that I guess that it even should work with Athletic 1. Directly at the torch it even works with a standing jump. The attributes were 13 Str, 10 Dex and 10 End. Not sure if attributes influence skill checks. I also tried the jump through the waterfall, with those values and it was very close. With more tries, I probably would have made it. But I was too impatient and used a Strange Egg, to get a running head start. With that I did it first try.

The episodes Raph you upload are never boring..so what if you don't kill any guards etc..still enjoying each and every one..specially the longer ones

Taking the fn piss haha 😆

Didn't you stumble upon a bag of ancient moth dust in a previous playthrough? Maybe that could help with the force field you encountered behind the waterfall, since the dust works against arcane magic.

nice! We get a new episode! I finally got to a new area in this game and made some more progress. I still need to find two pieces of the skeleton. I am loving this game!

05:40 Very Silence of the Lambs 41:46 Pyramid head appears stronger and faster than when I fought him on PS2! 01:26:00 Common tramp?!

I'm Australian and not offended by the accent. The Neighbours and Home and Away references made me giggle 🤭 🤭

Did you figure out that you can get your exp back by returning to where you die and you should see a green ball.

It wont be offensive..us Kiwis and them Aussies give each other shit all the time 😆

Never heard of this game before..sounds a bit Mad Maxish..the original NOT that remake

I forgot you were still playing this game too

A particularly creep episode, remember the mirror encounter from the original game, they really have adapted this well so far

Good progress Raph, keep up te great work

Nice progress made, this video. 28:40 You can indeed use the Lysandrian Mace, by transferring it from your quest inventory to your hand slot, although its dmg is abysmal. There are also some other quest inventory items, that you can use in a similar manner. I think if you have a stack of empty bottles, and very quickly click on the red healing fountain, you can fill several before the fountain temporarily deactivates. At least it worked once for me. Might be a glicht or intended. If you untick [Always use best attack] under [Options], [Game Settings], you can choose which attack you use. Forward moving, you do a overhead bash. Backwards moving you do a stab. Moving sideways, you do slashes. This can be useful with swords and axes, that do decent dmg with all attacks. That way you can control the attack you do, which is useful when fighting in narrow spaces. For blunt and pierce weapons I find it less useful, since they deal far less dmg with their secondary dmg types. 40:14 Now you know what weapon I use on my dumb strong ox playthrough, that I currently try ;-) There I put all skill points in blunt weapons and all attributes in Str, with only a few in Dex, Vit, End. But more seriously, as far as I observed, the only effect of not meeting skill or attribute requirements of a weapon, is lowered damage. So if the resulting remaining dmg (or DPS = dmg * weapon speed) is higher than for another weapon, it is still worth using weapons despite of not meeting their requirements. Arguable DPS is not as important as pure dmg in Monomyth, since an effective style of fighting is walking away while regenerating stamina, then charge up a strong hit at the right time to let a foe walk into it. So depending on how you fight, weapon speed is not that important and thus a slow heavy hitting weapon might be much better than a higher DPS but low dmg weapon. Examples at around 1:01:43 - The Excellent Spiked Mace does 55 blunt dmg at .84 speed -> 46.2 DPS, despite of you not meeting all its skill and Str requirements. (With the Str+1 you put in later it should be much better.) - The Excellent Broadsword does 50 slash dmg at .93 speed -> 46.5 DPS, despite of you not meeting its skill requirements. - The Excellent War Axe does 50 slash dmg at .90 speed -> 45 DPS, despite of you not meeting its skill requiremetens. - The Excellent Raven's Beak does 49 blunt dmg at .77 speed -> 37.7 DPS, despite of you not meeting any of its requirements. - The Excellent Short Sword does 40 slash dmg at .98 speed -> 39.2 DPS, including the bonus you get from surpassing its skill, Str and Dex requirements. - The Excellent Dagger does 33 pierce dmg at 1.23 speed -> 40.6 DPS, including the bonus you get from surpassing its skill, Str and Dex requirements. So the Spiked Mace seems to be overall best, at your current (in the video) skill/attribute level, considering it's easier to use attack pattern and higher damage. But it is on par with the Broadswords DPS, if you want higher speed or the more versatile set of effective attacks, when you switch off the [Always use best attack] setting. I did not test if reach advantages exist in Monomyth. Obviously the weapons with higher skill and attribute requirements will profit much more from you increasing those. So do not expect the above order apply if you next time increase them! By the way: The strong attack (hold LMB until visual cue) also staggers enemies out of the healing potion animation, like the kick, but usually takes less stamina and deals more damage. 1:32:34 Putting on those yellow glowing hot ~1000 °C chain mail pants on your body, to carry them from the forge fire to the anvil does not seem to be a good idea. Also: You can change the orientation of items to place, using the mouse wheel. 1:37:52 The ladder you are looking at, there, is useful. You should easily be able to jump over, from where the torch is at. 1:38:30 Seeing the shadow behind the waterfall, a curious mind ...

Trick I figured out with picking up items, like grabbing swords from the coals to move to the anvil. Keep your inventory open and you can keep the sword as your cursor instead of the weapon dropping into your inventory.

Maggies farm..rage against the machine?

And the adventure continues.....thanks 🙏.... great commentary

Loving your long vids of this. Want to give it a try but I’m still addicted to tarkov lol

Curious when the ninja launches at you and it says you must block his attack if he surpassed your defence can you STILL BLOCK

NINJA from the way of the Scorpion is on the ceiling like Spiderman.. flash powder

If you helped the samurai rather than help the village girl from the witch then you would have got a samurai army to help you in book 4 or 5 I think

I guess the samurai come in handy for book 5

Yeah this book was tough

Brilliant job, Raph, really great readthrough. Well done as its a tough one but I remember enojying book 3 Usurper. Cheers

What an adventure. Thankyou for releasing this episode so soon!

Congratulations on surviving this very difficult book!

Afaict, "Iya na inu" means "nasty dog" in Japanese.

I must ask, are you playing this game at night, alone?! If so, you are one brave man!

Great episode. Can't wait till the next one!

Haha what a rant..😆
