Three times I’ve heard Grian’s voice peak like that - 1. When he hit Ren with the falling stalactite. 2. When he blew up the tunnel borer. 3. When he thought Scar shut the door on him this game. It is hilarious when he gets into freak out mode!

And i think the first time he got introduced to phasmo. Very manly scream

There are two more I can think of. His squeal when he got the quadruple tnt kill in limited life, and his "this is the greatest moment of my life!" response to wiping Dreams entire team by killing 3/4 of them in survival games in MCC.

[@PeteH-wc8wf]

the quad kill in limited life?

[@On3Hand3dClap]

Defining moment: Impulse firmly closes the door on Grian, initially mistaking him for a monster. This unintentionally leads to Grian's demise, followed by his playful yet instructive monologue on 'door protocol' to Impulse. The icing on the cake? Impulse's retort, "You didn't show me your badge." An iconic comeback that had me in stitches. I love this video!!!

[@Ajlez]

I've been reminiscing about Phoenix Wright games lately and so the badge gag is giving me great joy. (you can present evidence to ask people about it and your attorney badge is included in this list, so it's one of those things you just always want to present for fun or because you have nothing yet, and it eventually becomes a meme)

[@MommaSheep13]

I have never been more scared watching this and yet laughing my ass off at the same time! You guys are such a great combo!

I can agree based on the light flickering, but also it's noises it could be banshee. Might want to try spirit box to confirm which one!

This game is spookier than phasmo. I like the adrenaline rush when the hunt started. But the early game makes me feel dizzy because of the sound effect and motion effect.
