Fun fact: The troll turning to stone at the end has mythological basis! In Nordic folklore, some landmarks like mountains were said to be trolls exposed to sunlight, them having turned to stone due to the day. This is most likely why Nordic trolls are usually depicted with grey, stone-like skin, but that's just a guess of mine.

[@willnack5315]

So that’s where JRR Tolkien got that from!

[@ForseeFantasy]

Additional Fun Fact: In an old Nordic tale, Thor's daughter was kidnapped by a troll to become his bride. So Thor essentially went to the weeding ceremony and kept the troll talking for so long that the sun came up causing the troll to turn to stone freeing Thor's daughter from the wedding.

[@eldritchcupcakes3195]

So does most of the game! Literally everyone (except seemingly the karrhaxen).

Thank god you're taking a break. Probably the most consistent "quality over quantity" youtuber I've seen. Well deserved 😄👍

[@Iwilfindyourcolors]

Agreed he does a lot of posts and he is one of the best horror game KZbin channel well in my opinion

[@ana_caona]

The most amazing is he does both quality and quantity, frequent posts and never bad quality or less interesting ones, it's impressive

[@gamerstheater1187]

it's both quality and quantity

[@OpaqueEmber]

This is such a beautiful game!! And it totally reminds me of The Witcher, particularly the Blood and Wine DLC of the Witcher 3 where you have to make your way through the fairytale storybook that comes to life, and there are horror and cutesy elements mixed in together, its totally like that!! Loving this and I will totally play the game myself too

[@Ganaha_Celosia_Priskos]

I've been waiting for this ever since you played the demo! I was so intrigued by not only the art style but the lore it's based on as well!

[@rileyquinn974]

Don't know much about folklore but I know that the reason the Troll turned to stone at the end is because in folklore Trolls can't be out during the day since the sun light turns them to stone, so they hunt and wander around at night ^_^ I'm guessing the light stone thing stunned it until daylight turned it to stone?

[@silent_cyan2792]

Yess I've been waiting for this game! I'm really glad you got to play it! Its a really good game

[@shacharlem4424]

Do you think the name of the game could be a homage to Hilda and the mountain king?

[@shinkurea1084]

The gnomes were so hella adorable and I was upset seeing them die from the traps and that aftermath of the rescue 😭😭😭😭😭 that part where Olle had to dodge that cleaver too oh lawd

[@Delightful_Addition]

It's like Little Nightmares meets Lord of the Rings combined with a grim fairy tales aesthetic. I really liked it and would definitely want to see an entire playthrough.

[@neofulcrum5013]

I tell ya, Little Nightmares really created a genre in horror gaming: Giant monsters hunting small children/people.

The little detail of Olle's shoe slipping off the back of his heal was a good little thing to spot when he was climbing outta the trolls hand

[@serenity7980]

But the real question is how his shoes stayed on

[@simanefiorettiekstrom6345]

It is so nice seeing the smal details, the shoes are suposed to depict the wood shoe/slipper that was used in the nordics. As a scandinavian person and a HUGE fable nerd this game is so fun to watch.

[@greenhydra10]

I'm a bit of a nut for European myths and legends, and I loved Little Nightmares, so seeing this fully release is great!

[@Sunriru]

my understanding, what i can guess is that after going through the doorway and "becoming" small, they ended up in the "fairy' realm.

[@hencytjoe]

8:45 the song is called "kullning", it's a very old traditional Swedish art form used to rally and co-ordinate kettle. You can watch Jonna Jinton explain this further. It's literal goosebumps.

[@scorpiogacha1577]

32:50 Is nobody gonna talk about how good that Snarl/Groan sounded!?

[@aye4119]

This game is gonna make me weep. YOU CAN’T MAKE THE GNOMES SOUND LIKE BABIES AND EXPECT ME TO NOT CARE FOR THEM! I’m gonna need a box of tissues going further.

[@thedvim]

I think this game takes place in Denmark, since Denmark is a nordic country, and if you split "Lillemor" into "Lille mor" it'll mean little mother in danish, also Olle is a name used in Denmark, though I've never met anyone calle Olle

[@bunbuntheevil]

By reading the text on the matchbox which says " Svenska tändstickor " ( Swedish matchens) I'm pretty sure it's taking place in Sweden.

[@thedvim]

@@bunbuntheevil Close enough

[@jennienordlander9911]

yeah its definitely sweden! they even speak in clear swedish from time to time wich is so cute and fun to hear

[@Scaryland42]

Danskjävel, in all seriousness though, I think it takes place in sweden since Olle is a swedish name and it says "Svenska tändstickor" on the matches. But it still makes sense that you think that it is in denmark as our culture is pretty much the same!

[@thedvim]

@@Scaryland42 yeah, I was a little off

The whole time all I could think was DANGGG the graphics are just- WOW Chefs kiss incredible

[@ascrein5247]

I hope to see a lore video on the origins of the creatures.

[@starfall7147]

I would recommend just looking into videos made by people that are actually swedish/Scandinavian if you're really interested in the "creatures". It can be hard to talk about a culture that isn't your own so I would not be surprised if he happens to get some info wrong if he does a lore video that includes info on the mythology

[@Konani_the_unicorn_queen]

oof, -mike would get so much flack for anything and everything he'd get wrong in that kind of video

Olle was happier to have found the stone than he would have been for finding his sister .

[@thedvim]

I find it funny how she pronounces "Lillemor", btw the name means "Little mother", which I know some girls were called in the past in Denmark, not sure why, but I've seen it in old movies/series.

[@thedvim]

Btw she didn't say the name wrong, she just makes it sound a bit more fancy

[@itsyagirlyuki]

props to mike for making a few more vids before he goes on holiday, nice job mike have fun on your holiday!

[@thephantasm94]

As a swede i chuckled when you tried to pronounce Lillemor och Olle but atleast you tried.

[@torewestbom341]

I’m Swedish and it’s funny have this game feels like home the forest is the same.

[@hencytjoe]

My thought exactly. The forest just screams Sweden. It's genuinely well done

[@valediaz8612]

I am torn between wanting to watch the playthrough or waiting till I play it myself and then watching this

[@elijahronbelt3407]

The dilemma

[@newagehero9605]

I can’t wait for analysis on this game, the older sister was definitely foolish lol nobody told her to go into the forest at night

[@atlaskitten6489]

The mother did in the beginning with the story book, but she clearly didn't listen to her. Kids are foolish, and she is a prime example of that.

[@aqilfayyadh65channel]

Did he brought a laptop with him and played it during his vacay? Lol

[@user-gu9yq5sj7c]

As someone who absolutely loves hedgehogs this game made me very happy 😊 Edit: .....nevermind......😢

I never heard of this game until now and it was visually stunning and a really cool story GAMING IS NOT DEAD

I know your not lying because nobody casually uses the word “delight” except for Swedish people

[@jennienordlander9911]

Swedish gang! Right? its so amazing! what stuns me the most the the environment, theres so many flowers and berries and stuff youre so fimiliar with thats so fun to see! and i rlly love the small details like the rlly oldschool swedish names and the fact that they even speak a little swedish from time to time ^^ this game is such a delight, i couldnt agree more!

[@Konani_the_unicorn_queen]

i really like how i recognize the flora and fauna too :>

Hey mike can you pls play in sound mind pls, it’s a really fun and emotional but extremely underrated psychological horror game that I think you would find very interesting to play and theorize about.

How does Olle not hear the loud footsteps of the trolls?

Okay this is definitely European based cuz as a European about 90 per cent of kids stories start with ' kid goes to forest, finds a monster'

[@TheRaniDoll]

This has major little nightmare vibes... i mean the gnomes, the weird monsters, being tiny, meat choppers...

[@nicoangelo9928]

Swedish representation lets gooo

[@aidanfraga3987]

I just generally loved how the beginning is looks friendly and adorable in the sunny day with the little gnomes like it was based for little kids game, but in night the trolls came out the dark and kidnapping the gnomes and killed them all, like it was rated R.

[@JakesMetalChat]

I really enjoyed the game. I love that it mixed Nordic Folklore with Horror, both blended really well together. Some a pervious comment, I agree with the story books giving off RE8 vibes. I'm from the UK and part of a Pagan group and we discussed some folklore, so I'm familiar with some of these. Awesome video.

[@queenweeb191]

Definitely tons of things in this game inspired by little nightmares. Like when u have to jump in the meat and get to the different platformed areas before the unknown creature gets u? Definitely took inspiration from the shoe scene and water scene in the little nightmares 1 game. Also, is no one noticing that these ogre lookin creatures look an awful like some of the villains henchmen in some of the old Barbie movies? Like Barbie mermaidia or is it jus me? Lmao

[@jark5852]

That's interesting that you mention the Fungus, because not many people remember those movies. 😂

I don't know about you but the setting of this story screams European. I'm thinking maybe Norway, Germany, or Finland, Wales, somewhere like that.

[@Laruto722]

Yes, the devs are Swedish and based the game on various Nordic folklore. The kids say the occasional word in Swedish and there is a Swedish song and Norwegian classical melody in the game.

The scenes with the flesh and traps are scary.

My current theory is that the children weren’t shrunken down, but were actually transported to a magical real where all folklore creatures like trolls, gnomes, etc come from. In that world, the giant things like trolls are normal sized but they are big in our world.

[@bokonoo77]

older sister / younger brother stuffs always warms my heart especially its solely focused on their relationship man... purifying selection, genetic purging, strengthening of co-adaptive gene complex

[@AriEri.]

This game is probably, maybe, (massively) inspired by little nightmare, the troll with the bag is like the janitor, the butcher troll is like the cook, the creature living inside the pile of meats is the creature in the pile of shoe, the concept of huge creature hunting down small things / creature, the gnomes

[@juusos2416]

the game is probably set in sweden during the 1700s also lillemor means little mother

[@milokonna]

The demo was very captivating, so I'm excited for the full release. I know it's based on Nordic folklore, but it reminds me a bit of the Slavic myths of my home, so nice.
