I know this game is like set in the Victorian era, but the aesthetic is so accurate it transported me back to my childhood in the mid-90s. Sitting in a dark, incredibly warm pub snug room, where the fireplace would be lit even in the middle of summer, playing my friend on the most battered Connect-4 you'd ever seen in your life, while our Dads were having a drink in the no-kids part of the pub.

[@katbird5872]

The atmosphere is so great! Did you pick the paintings on a theme? I recognize the one at 28:37 because I’m obsessed with the hidden message/meaning of harassment and mourning in it but I don’t know that much art so I don’t recognize the rest really 😅

[@oliviatheshark3704]

Julia: is this wall redder than normal? Jacob, famously red-green colorblind: you're asking the wrong guy

"why are you taking your ring off? are we not married anymore? :( ... oh that's not your marriage ring"

[@ladybuglore]

for anyone curious, lady chatterly's lover includes graphic sex scenes, repeated use of the word fuck, and some use of the c word! so yeah a bit more than "and then we fricked" lmaoo

I relate to how Julia says she perceives music vocals, I absolutely blank on most of the lyrics and I have to actively sit down and read the lyrics to figure out what even the song was about

[@LarryOfCamalot]

I cannot relate. I do Lindy hop and I notice even when live performances of the songs have alternate lyrics from the normal while actively focusing on swing dancing with someone.

[@elmatichos]

I've noticed that with myself as well, but never thought much about it. I just thought I was bad at listening somehow, but as she described it, yes, I just hear the vocals as another instrument. This felt good to discover about myself :)

[@M.Datura]

I can kinda relate. I can't hear the actual lyrics without focusing, because I blank on sound eventually due to overload, but at the same time, I cannot stand listening to things in a language I understand when I need to focus, because I automatically *try* to hear the lyrics. It's exhausting.

[@Lyfling]

I absolutely relate to Julia with this. For me, especially with autism and adhd, I have all kinds of auditory processing issues. I can parse maybe 50% of the lyrics of new music at best, and need subtitles on almost everything I watch. Throw in some sort of background noise, and I am constantly having to ask people to repeat themselves. If this is a thing for you, look up auditory processing disorder. A lot of the information out there is in regards to children, but it is absolutely a part of executive dysfunction in all ages. I can’t imagine how much growing up deaf or being hard of hearing would exacerbate the issue.

[@deleted_Jo]

Same here! I can sing along just fine and like understand what words are where but just never absorb what they're *actually* saying

[@annikan42]

The crying lady jump scare was so delayed I had let my guard down like "oh I guess we aren't actually getting jumps scared here" and then the hard cut psyched me out for a second as my brain tried to process if she had actually been at door the whole time and THEN I got that startled adrenaline rush. Very trippy very trippy

[@MissMisnomer_]

Okay the one at 1:59:28 was my favorite. Starting with the puddle of blood and the sound design guiding your eyes upwards until you're met with the reveal was super well done. And the visual of the body half-emerged from the ceiling in a mark the shape of the casket, only to get slowly slurped back up? Mwah. Chef's kiss

[@CallikonekoGaming-yj3tq]

I know it was mentioned that the Ten Bells was a pub associated with Jack the Ripper, but the Newspaper article that you read that showed up after two bells also mentioned Inspector or Detective Abberline, and Inspector Abberline was the main investigator of the Jack the Ripper murders. I find all the little hints of story, the references to Jack the Ripper hinting at murders and the Lady Chatterly's Lover book hinting toward a motive... It's fascinating and something you don't get in most of these anomaly games, and I think this is brilliant!

[@Kralisedra]

I immediately perked up when I heard Inspector Abberline's name. He was a pretty influential investigator in the Jack the Ripper case, which is definitely what I know him from and definitely not from Black Butler. Definitely.

[@PerpetuallyDaydreaming]

Saaaaame, I also knew Inspector Abberline from factual history and not Yana Toboso's famous manga/anime Black Butler-

[@triumphaladarkshadow4388]

And my first thought was definitely not "wasn't his name misremembered as Underline, or something?". I, also, have this tidbit from actual human history and not the first manga I've ever read, namely Black Butler by Yana Toboso.

[@Stick_and_stone]

I mean the something bell pub was related to jack the ripper too, wasn't it?

I relate to Jacob saying that most of his songs are a one-day-fugue-state affair. Almost all of my finished songs happened over a single all-nighter. The ones that are not finished in that time take months to complete, if ever

[@M.Datura]

I can relate because that's how I write. Only problem is, I'm chronically ill and all my ideas are long, so even if I can write like 2000 words an hour, it's never enough time/energy.

[@0Voyd]

I'm the same way with poetry - either it comes out all at once like it appeared in my mind as a whole, or I spend far too long teasing every word out, and I'm never quite as happy with results from the latter

Baseball Bat is so good, it fixed my spinal stenosis

[@Stellar_Excavator]

Listening to voices as instruments is why i like working out with music in languages I am not fluent in. It started as a way to immerse myself while learning them in HS, but I've branched out to others with a certain sound quality.

[@Thermiten]

Baseball Bat sounds so good, what a bop! Its giving vibes of Psychedelic P*rn Crumpets and Radiohead. Really cool, well done Jacob!

[@jessica232]

That musical conversation really hit home with me. I can listen to the same song over and over, totally understanding the words, but when I try to sing along, I cannot get the words out fast enough. Also, Tragic Kingdom was an amazing album!

[@NickCombs]

I naturally focus on the melody and harmony of the song and not the lyrics. That can get you in trouble though, if the lyrics turn out to be rancid.

[@saveoursquirrels4241]

I usually focus on the melody and rhythm first but if the lyrics are weird or bad when i do figure out what they are after repeated plays i cant enjoy it anymore even if i like the sound

[@Uberphish]

Re: Julia's stance on music, I'm a writer but I'm honestly much the same. Particularly great or particularly bad lyrics _can_ jump the fence and make or break a song for me, but otherwise the vocals are essentially just another instrument that happens to be using words that I may or may not process. Given her point about not understanding folks well when they're singing (something I don't always suffer from, but can definitely understand), I wonder if it might just stem from auditory processing issues in general. I've certainly got plenty of those myself...

[@mothwingsintheforest]

note: the term "fugue state" refers to a dissociative amnesia experience of confusion or loss of identity, usually in response to a traumatic or overwhelming event. It's one of those terms I've seen coming into mainstream not quite being represented accurately so I wanted to make sure to note it in case anyone didn't know!

[@XanderLars2]

I don't even know if Julia realized how funny the improved suggestion of "upside down patrick star" is. he's a starfish in boardshorts. he'd almost be difficult to mess up. XD

[@PaulofPeak]

Hearing Julia talk about how she processes music was so affirming as I process lyrics similarly. When I am singing my body focuses on the physical act of singing which is separate to me than the mental act of language which is why I can have really great pitch and be absolute garbage at karaoke lol

[@M.Datura]

SAME! I do hear lyrics when I listen to music, to an incredibly annoying degree, but when I sing I don't process words! I really have to know a song to sing it, but when I do know it properly, I know every little change in intonation, every hint of vibrato, (if I learned it by listening). Biggest compliment I ever got as a kid was that someone thought I was playing an acoustic version of a song when I was just singing it myself. I did not speak the language (yet).

JACOBBB THE SONG IS SO GOOD I'M BITING MY FINGERS OFF

[@horisontial]

Damn, that intro is a jam. I don't know if any of you youngens are gonna know of it, but back in the day (1999-2000s) OCremix was a place where video game music and remixes were uploaded and preserved. Due to copyright it was mostly popular on internet radio, which is sort of a precursor to podcasts/streams in that it'd often be pre-recorded and then premiered on internet radio. Well, this tune sort of taps into a tradition of songs that was made popular in the drone/doom scene with bands like Sunn O))), Yawning Man and probably many more I just can't think of right now, and creators on OCremix like Psycho Crusher.

True, but as much as I dislike Among Us, there's no denying it's the one that really springboarded the genre into it's massive boom. Like Hollow Knight and Metroidvanias, or Wordle and it's predecessors like Mastermind.
