The detail about the reviving animation is amazing

cool

good game

are you good gaming

It's a very impressive ending and the song 😭😭😭

The music though 😢

Two amazing guns to beat the game you just beat... and they don't carry across to higher difficulty runs 😩

Hey! So, uhm, my phone broke again. So it may be a little while before we can talk. I hope all's okay with you, and I'll try to have it fixed as soon as I'm able to.

All that for two good guns dam I mess up 😳if I knew that I would have finished the map

🤪 քʀօʍօֆʍ

Hey! So, my phone screen stopped working entirely a little while ago. I tried to tell you already, but had a brain fart and reached out via our original comment chain on Everglow's video. So yeah. I'm letting you know properly now. I'm sorry. I hope you've been well.

Ooh, Great vid!

Here I am looking for no commentary playthroughs of games when you’re doing the same thing!

Lovely as always, Keep up the good work!!

Another like to add to my collection

Ok now I finished liking them all

After a long journey, I finally liked them all

Ooh, Noice

kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6SThnuMqqhoick Everyone is definitely going to need this soundtrack playlist for the game.

“You’re so clueless and bumbling which makes you very attractive to women!”

You know, a Common Sense Goal would be nice.The closest thing they have to a voice of reason is Rufus, the least reasonable person in this whole game aside from Cletus.

You know, Platypus meat is probably not something I’d ever try

So anymore parts of this coming?

He’s off now

*One eternity later*

Wait that’s how it ends? So Goal is still stuck with marrying Cletus? And Roofus will never get to see her again? I mean yeah he’s narcissistic but they did have kind of a cute back and forth chemistry

RIP Pigeons

Nice

I like this game’s art style

Oh man, I could feel the pain that had to be felt 33 minutes into Episode 25. Haha. Good job finally conquering it though. I know that'd been giving you trouble for a while. God, the scenery in the last two chapters is remarkable. Also, we finally get to see some of Theodore's manipulation. It isn't much, but it's there. Honestly, Chapters 16 & 17 feel like an entirely separate game from the rest of what led up to it, and I'd say it's in those chapters where the game's trailer was finally earned. Chapters 16 and 17 are phenomenal from front to back, and while I do have a few grievances, they're so small that they aren't worth bringing up right now. It's a shame more of the game couldn't be like this, but that doesn't detract from the fact that part of it is, and that's already far more than many other games could say. I love so much about this final stretch that listing the parts I enjoyed would just end up being a list of nearly everything in it. This is precisely how you conclude a story. I will say, I still think it's dumb Mobius was that easy to topple, but I suppose technically it isn't completely toppled, so I'll give it a begrudging pass this time. Overall, I think I'd give this game either an 8.625 or 8.75. I have yet to decide between the two, but this was really solid either way. Not a 10/10, but very much worthy of praise.

This Episode was amazing. THIS is the sort of stuff I was looking forward to from this game. It's unfortunate it took so long to get to it, but that doesn't detract from how well done this was. Seb confronting his demons was great, Myra usurping Theodore was fantastic, and the way these events subsequently morph STEM into this monotone hellscape is worth all the chef kisses I have to offer. The setup and opening of this game fumbled a bit, but it found its footing quickly. Only to then take only the most minimal steps forward for the longest time. Stefano's sendoff was great, but it certainly wasn't spectacular, and everything that followed it kind of dropped the ball. Then the last "big" event with Seb encountering Theodore and 'Lily', shooting Esmerelda, and talking to Myra within his head, all left me unsatisfied due to some rocky execution. However, this bit did not falter in the slightest. This was gold. I really hope there's more than just a couple Episodes left to this game, because this is the exact sort of content I was hoping to see, and if it continues to knock it out of the park as well as it did in this Episode, my score for TEW2 is only going to continue climbing. As of now, I'd say I'm most comfortable placing this game at either an 8.25 or 8.375. (Oh, also, clever title for Episode 33.)

This was pretty decent setup for what's to come. Hoffman was the side-character I felt the least investment in, but it still sucks she went out that way. I'm surprised Seb got so attached to everyone. He's still just a big softie at heart. XD

Sucks about Sykes. He was definitely the best of the side characters within STEM, even if that isn't saying a whole lot. Also, I see you going through those slides slowly to up the suspense. XD That is definitely a hook for a potential sequel if I ever saw one, though.

I suppose I’ll start out with a bit of a side note: Tatiana's comment about self-discovery being what makes STEM so intriguing sounds as though it's the writers speaking directly to the player. Anywho, I had a feeling those Mu Centers were going to come into play at some point. I also get the feeling that the lady who's hunting Seb down is a precursor for The Phenomenon. I am noticing some of that overacting acting from the start of the game coming back just a bit. Hopefully, it’s temporary. Either way, I can't really say what happened with Liam got to me all that much, but hey, it was there. XD That aside, I have to ask... how did anyone ever listen to anything Thomas had to say? And how the hell did he fool Mobius, again? What we're told about his speaking skills and what we see of them are two polar opposite things. He is horrible at persuasion. I mean, I get that Hoffman explains this away by saying he doesn’t need to be great at how he speaks with others anymore, but it feels less like a clever direction for his character, and more like the writer had no clue how to write effective dialogue for him and used this as an excuse for it. It’s not that it doesn’t work. It’s fine, I suppose. I just wish we could’ve seen the persuasive linguistic side of him that he’s so known for. Nonetheless, the latter half of Episode 29 was… odd. It's probably the highlight of the game so far. Still, I can’t help but feel like what Myra had to say to Sebastion was way too on the nose, and for it to click with him right away, only for him to forget it mere seconds later, and then have it immediately click with him again was very odd. I also can’t shake the feeling that something’s off about it, and I don’t quite know what. Maybe something isn’t gelling with me, or there’s something I missed. I don’t know. It’s playing havoc on my ability to pinpoint my current rating of this game though. All I can say at this point is it’s somewhere between an 8 and an 8.5. Moving on, though, I have similar feelings towards Esmerelda’s fate as Liam’s, but hey, at least I felt a little bummed by it. I will say Seb is very forgiving towards her though, which is rather sweet, as well as a great way to reflect his new mindset. I think that’s about all I have to say on this batch of Episodes though, but it was pretty good, and I look forward to more!

I can definitely see why you say the plot starts picking up here. This feels a lot like the moment in the first game where Seb finally realized he was in STEM and what that meant, so the game's story was finally ready to begin. Either way, Seb saying "I trust you, Kidman," has to be one of my favorite moments of this game so far. That means a lot.

The mysterious dude with the voice is the guy with the staff from the trailer, isn't he?

Seb: Falls into a bottomless pit. Game: Don't forget you can craft ammo. Man, this Episode packs the exact sort of pace and anxiety this game has been sorely lacking. I hope events like this are at least somewhat more plentiful moving forward. Also, what with the line "everyone gets lucky... once", all his knife throwing, and the blinding lights that appear in the second phase, I can't help but draw parallels between the boss battle with Stefano and MGS2's battle with Olga. So that's yet another thing in this game that reminds me of Metal Gear. Anywho, I don't think I've ever been as fixated on either this game or the one before it as I was when Myra showed up. Don't get me wrong, there better be a damn good explanation for her being here, but even still, that scene alone was captivating.

That entire art burning situation is very weird to me. Like, what was Stefano trying to get Seb to do by telling him to appreciate his art before he could come in, if burning said art was the only way to actually enter? There's a pretty heavily implication there, so if Stefano actually ends up being upset by Seb burning his art I'm going to be very confused considering that's essentially exactly what he told Seb to do. Either way, though, these were a good couple episodes and I anticipate the next one!

Man, Seb's invisible gun sure was awesome in Episode 17. XD Episode 17 was pretty good, and this one wasn't bad either. That said, I guess Lily truly must be the Core. It's pretty hard to contend it at this point.

This was a good episode filled with an intense atmosphere, boosting an exemplary design for Obscura. Both visually and auditorially. What's more, not only did we finally meet up with Stefano, (Which just makes me think of Pewdiepie, so that's going to be hard to get out of my head,) but we also had it verified for certain that Stefano isn't pulling any major strings here. He's just an artist, and he was merely handing "the girl" off to someone else. I'm glad the game didn't try and pretend like this artist is the main antagonist or anything, and I'm excited to see who the real one could be.

This was another good Episode. I don't have too much to say, but I appreciate the build-up. Honestly, it feels like this one had a lot of foreshadowing I didn't catch on to due to how many things are being referenced so vaguely.

I really like the moment in Episode 12 where Kidman comforts Seb. It's small, but still meaningful. Also, I'm guessing it's Episode 13 where you missed some of O'Neal's dialogue? Either way, Episode 13 has some interesting... side content, I must say. XD

This was another episode with a lot of good forward momentum. The story seems a lot more hand-holdy this time, but not to an extent where I feel it really detracts from anything. You were also definitely right about the overacting receding as the game goes on. I still have my doubts that Lily's alive, but I suppose I'll find out eventually. I have to admit a part of me misses the setpieces from the previous game, but I'm sure they're still here. The first game took a while to build up to its set pieces too, after all.

You were right. This is a good episode. This was the perfect moment for a break in the pattern, and it wasn't a bad one either. I also have a feeling that this Mu Center is going to be very central to what goes down in this game moving forward.

I noticed the little jump between the last episode and this one. It also seems like the gun sometimes just doesn't work if you're too close to an enemy, which is really odd. I'm surprised that hasn't been patched considering how long this game's been out. Unless I'm seeing things wrong. Either way. This is definitely a slow burn so far, which isn't always a bad thing. I do find myself hoping something new or important happens here really soon though, and considering you said you think I'll really like the next episode, I can only assume that's exactly what happens.

"You haven't even taken the safety off, rookie," the mysterious woman who goes by the name Tatiana, and the large emphasis on stealth. This game is giving me some rather unexpected MGS vibes. Either way, it's alright so far. I don't have much else to say.

Well, Seb's voice is admittedly a bit more nasally than I would like. Surprisingly, though, Kidman's voice is throwing me off way more than his. Regardless, that intro was really good. So far the game's a bit overacted, but that's preferable to the last game being underacted. I'm already a lot more engrossed. I highly doubt Lily's actually alive, but we'll see. Anyway, the visual and audio design in this game is top-notch so far. I'm very impressed compared to the last game. I do remember everything in this particular video, though, as this was the part I helped my younger brother with a while back. I remember I helped him out up until he reached someone he could talk to in what I'm assuming is Union, but I'm not too sure.

Okay, that was pretty cool. Especially facing off against both Joseph and Seb at the end.

So, that was fine. It looked fun enough, but it didn't really serve too much purpose beyond that. I liked the idea of giving the player more insight towards the minds of the people behind the more memorable 'monsters' you face, but at the same time, I feel it could've been pulled off a lot better than it was here. As it is, it's serviceable. I can definitely see why it might not be fully canon though. I am interested in what the "???" on the scoreboard at the end was, though.

I really liked these last two episodes. Between us shifting from Kidman's perspective to retracing Seb's steps, the confusion Kidman faces on whether or not the Mobius she's speaking to is the real group or not, and even the fake-out credits that were obviously not the actual ending but still a fun inclusion. I don't think my ranking for the game has shifted any, but that doesn't mean I didn't thoroughly enjoy these episodes. I believe you said the game has one more, somewhat non-canonical DLC after this, right?
