FromSoftware's Haunted House | Echo Night 2 (PS1)

[@retrotranslator1311]

Hi, I'm the translator. The reason why the title wasn't translated literally was not me being "creative" or anything. It was because of a secret item in the game, the record with the in-game soundtrack, which had "Lord of Nightmare" (sic) written on it in English in the Japanese version. Actually, there was quite a bit of other dummied English text as well. But clearly, the developers had the phrase "Lord of Nightmares" in mind. Originally, I was planning to translate it as "The Master of Slumber" until I saw "Lord of Nightmare" in the game, and I wanted to be closer to the developers' intent. So I hope people don't get the wrong idea. I wasn't trying to "improve" upon the title.

[@dungeonchill]

That’s awesome to know. I’m going to pin this comment. Also, I didn’t mean to imply that you were trying to improve the title. Sorry if I made it seem that way. And thank you for your hard work! It really is a fantastic translation.

[@quarkbent9165]

@@dungeonchill In general, a healthy benefit of doubt should be afforded in most cases; I hadn't figured you meant it that way in the slightest :) Also, this fact really helps, so thank you both. -EDITED FOR ACCURACY OF INTENT-

The graphical style of these old PSX era games is so nice. I am glad we're seeing indie games being made in this style now.

[@keip4568]

Yet that is why people are obsessed with Crow County now it seems...

[@garr123]

The problem is that I don't think these games look... great without the natural blending/anti-aliasing/etc that you got from a CRT. These games were designed with a CRT screen in mind. 3D/2D games suffer the most, because the CRT made everything look of a piece, instead of the backgrounds looking jarring. CRT filters have gotten kind of incredible, especially CRT Royale. I recently played through FF9 on retroarch with it and it looked great.

Sorry I‘m dumb but what does this mean?

[@brbcoffee5447]

100% love the little added bits of personality like the "noisies" and the hype yelling about the door raft. You've got a great balance going with those and your eloquent, well-written review and summary. Idk what to say besides "keep it up" and pls don't make us wait a year for Echo Night: Beyond! Though I guess it's kinda tradition at this point.

[@TheBersergner]

It's very reminiscent of Grimbeard. If you don't watch them, you should.

[@murky16]

Yea it really is great, I like the part at 20:30 😂😂

[@tkbuffy]

I live in Australia and somehow I always stay up late enough on a Saturday night to see your videos release so quickly, worth it! I love them

[@three_seashells]

[@bushturkey798]

Bloody cold at the moment, ain't it fellas.

[@Nurr0]

Reporting in haha. Can confirm it is indeed cold.

[@MigrantBirdStudio]

It is cold and the rain is annoying, but when the Sun is out, it is still nice. Videos about Horror games are great in the cold anyway and Dungeon Chill does a fantastic job.

[@chaosarcanum]

I think part of the reason the first game's setting works so well is also because you're on an ocean liner; if Richard wants off, good luck getting to land or finding help. Ocean horror is a great setting and not done as often as spoopy mansions, which are always good, but I agree with you. The setting of the last game was better. Bless fanslations and the dedicated people behind them, especially when they go for making it seem like an entry in the series rather than a direct translation. Loved hearing about this one! It seems almost like this game is a soft reboot of the series, with Richard 🤔 But I'd have to see with 3; if we have a new protag, if it's a continuation, etc. Regardless, you did an amazing job! I'm wracking my brain for summer streets in Yokohama, but coming up with nothing for now. Excited to see what's next!

[@Jaffersin]

A little girl orphaned from time on an airship and a girl in a haunted mansion inseparable from her faithful pet dog? Fascinating! Someone should expand on those ideas.

[@robertnomok9750]

As if all those games are happening in same universe.

[@torshec8634]

They went back to Armored Core, hopefully, just hopefully Miyazaki and the big wigs at FromSoft realize that their older experimental non-Souls games still have potential.

[@ad-ui6ey]

I don't really think they do. Others have done their shtick better. They should stick to what they know

[@j.2512]

They haven't shut down the possibility of a new kingsfield. Miyazaki only said it would have to be directed by Naotoshi Zin since its his series.

[@DragonBoi3789]

Fromsoft did make an attempt to experiment with their old mystery format in their VR game "Deracine". It didnt do that well because VR wasn't widely available in 2018 when it released, and it was a Sony exclusive. But its a phenomenally crafted story with some really interesting twists worthy of Fromsoft's legacy.

Glad to have some FromSoftware goodness to tie me over until the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. I'm also glad you covered this, the first Echo Nights and Kuon. I've played Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Sekiro, and of course Elden Ring and I knew of King's Field and Armored Core before I played 6. But I'm not as familiar with their other games, so it's cool to see these games of a studio I like but are obscure to me being covered. Keep up the good work, Dungeon!

[@chaosarcanum]

I'm hoping he'll cover Lost Kingdoms. They were GameCube games I still have and it blew my mind open they were FromSoft games.

[@TheCrewExpendable]

Watching this in between helping people with Shadow of the Erdtree bosses.

[@Joe-js7nr]

I always look forward to these videos. I sometimes find myself pausing a video to go off and play the game until I get stuck on something and just give up and finish the video

[@sweepingtime]

When the zeppelin was mentioned, I couldn't help but be reminded of the Hindenburg, of which Max Miller of Tasting History fame did an episode on. Remarkably, one of the stories he told was about a family that got separated while trying to flee the airship, which also reminds me of the story here in this game.

[@altheapolyam]

I love your videos, the format is perfect and I enjoy how you explain and narrate things :)

4:13 Hey, Ethan Winters went to the creepy old house while there was still daylight out and he *still* got punched in the face and kidnapped. Horror villains don't give a shit what time it is, they'll still find a way to ruin your day (or night or whenever).

40:05 I was so confused when he mentioned the name Catherine since I didn't remember it being brought up before. Then realized it was probably a mistake with Christina (the protagonist's girlfriend's name) but I went back to some parts of the video just to double check and it seems it was just an honest mistake.

[@ShinjiSixteen]

Absolutely fantastic, as always

[@Lucifronz]

5:22 Well clearly he is a vampire or a werewolf, judging by the pointy ears. 8:05 He was always dead, he's a vampire. That's just his meal-time blood that he threw up after she hit his body against the doors too hard. 19:09 Oh good, he found a meal to heal up with. Made a bit of a mess on his way out, but that happens. 19:54 Drunk on blood, no doubt. I assume that's how vampires react to drinking a lot of blood. 23:51 Clearly referencing vampirism. 32:48 It's probably the vampire you met in the woods. 33:01 I changed my mind, that clearly isn't Brian, that's a ghost. Brian is a vampire, they don't have souls. ...oh that's weird, the video ended without resolving the vampire sub-plot. Well that's alright, developers get rushed sometimes.

at around 27:00 you were wondering if you were using the correct terminology of stalactite vs stalagmite. firstly, yes you were right. secondly a good way to remember is that stalagmites hold the ground mightily while stalactites "tightly" grab the grab the ceiling.

I'm a super novice when it comes to game dev, but i thought it would be fun to make a ps1 style game. Something in the vein of resident evil 7 (fps survial horror). Just all pixeled so it gives me the warm and fuzzies. This game gives off that vibe minus the gunplay ect. Great vid Dungeon Chiller.

Between the ship Orpheus and the zeppelin Eurydice I think the lesson these games are teaching us is DON’T NAME LARGE VESSELS AFTER TRAGIC GREEK CHARACTERS Now I wonder if Echonight three will continue this pattern, will there be a spaceship named Oedipus?
