Please Don't Let This Happen! | Bramble Pt2

[@TheTroupeMasterGrimm]

This game is bringing back memories of stories from Swedish folklore my grandma used to tell me. The Swedish songs are ones I know as well. The guys with the red pointy hats are called “tomte”(s) or “nisse”(s) and the big trolls are called the same, “troll”. Trolls will eat anything they can get their hands on, from forest ani Al’s to tomtes to little human children, they don’t eat the adults though. They hide from the sun because the light will turn them to stone because they’re full of evil.

[@JohannaLJonsson]

My grandmother also told me these stories, also stories about "vättar" ❤

I’m Norwegian my great grandmother was Swedish, and I remember stories like this. Especially around the castle of the troll king, Dovrefjell.

[@nichole_brandt]

i just found out i had swedish in me not too long ago. after knowing i’m puerto rican, lithuanian, asian, and native 😂. so it’s cool to learn about the folklore associated with me.

[@Philinoxx]

26:47 Fun fact: One of the most famous artists who ever lived in sweden, John Bauer. Who specialised in painting swedish mythology, made a painting almost identical to this scene. Its called "Tuvstarr" and depicts a glowing naked girl with long hair sitting by a pond. Its one of his most famous paintings and it probably inspired the scene!

[@Andreas375]

5:15 trolls are “allergic” kinda to the sun. So trolls only go outside at night so they won’t be turned to stone. For example in the hobbit we see Gandalf turning the trolls who captured bilbo and his gang in to stone by exposing them to sunlight.

[@ashebennett7726]

So the light kills them?

[@christinanovelle]

@@ashebennett7726 yes

[@markushansen7944]

Yeah i was going to say

[@j-walker25]

I hate how it’s different than the book tho

[@Hyurachan]

10:30 So it's actually not a WITCH. It's Näcken, or known as a Nixie. Sort of like a siren by playing it's violin to force peopel into a dance and lure them in.

[@tindraekberg1871]

Wasn't Näcken originally a man who died or something? I've forgot the story, but still one of my favorites

[@Elli_Hamato_Todoroki]

@@tindraekberg1871 näcken is just a naked man who lures you into the river by playing music

[@Luminoxie]

​@@tindraekberg1871 depends on the story; it differs from each iteration. Usually it's a shapeshifting being that appears as a man, woman or even a beautiful horse that lures people to their deaths in rivers/lakes; usually it's through music but other times it's through temptation.

Brings me joy to see the gameplay from the demo he played of this - this game is beautiful. And the fact that he named the hedgehog Spike just like he did in the demo when he first played - pure joy

[@kamillaholmvik1910]

Hey daz!💕I'm from Norway and I can tell you that the trolls turn to stone from sunlight. The kind of song Ole's sister sings is called "kulning" in Swedish or "lokk" in Norwegian. The instrument nøkken the witch in the swamp plays is called the harding fiddle «hardingfele» and is associated with magic and enchantment. The most famous song that nøkken plays to lure people is the tune called "Fanitullen" hope you see this comment. Love your videos❤️ greetings from Norway🇳🇴❤️

@Don't Read My Profile Picture for gods sake the amount of times I’ve done this

[@Jürgen_von_Schumacher]

As a German who's thoroughly studied Nordic and Germanic folktales alike, this hits on a whole deeper level. To think some of this is actually in our culture and heritage is shocking. I enjoy writing stories about Nøkken, Zwerg, etc etc, but this is amazing! If anyone wonders what the runes were saying in the book, it was just what the woman was saying, only in runes. The language was English though and not swedish

[@Luminoxie]

As someone who adores German folktales are there any you recommend for me to check out? I absolutely adore the tale of the nøkken and haven't heard of the zwerg before.

[@Jürgen_von_Schumacher]

@@Luminoxie Well, I don't know many German folktales of Pagan origin (Unlike our Northern Brothers, we were christianized much more quickly and broke away from that part of our history much more quickly than them.) But for our own folktales, my first recommendation must be the Brothers Grimm. It tells our old stories in the purest way. If you speak German, I'd recommend finding a German version first, but of you don't, the English translation is just as great! You could also study medieval German literature. It's not quite folklore but it's still incredible and quite beautiful. My favorite genre would be Minnesang which were love songs made by courtiers and nobility. However one Minnesänger, Walther, made a poem about his trip to Jerusalem in the crusades. The Kaiser was so moved by his story that he gave him a castle and lordship with land 🙃 Outside of that, your best chance would just be to come to Germany and listen to our folktales in person as they thrive during our regional holidays A Zwerg is a dwarf essentially but we don't have much tales of him outside of him looking after our Kaiser Barbossa in the Unterburg, who is rumored to rise again and save his Kaiserreich and people when we're in our greatest need. I'd say he's a bit late 😂😂😂

[@rogigi12]

Bramble gets sooo creepy and sometimes even unnerving/scary around halfway through! Glad to see you continue the game Daz, i finished it in about 6 hours and it was amazing.

[@kaylapatterson6708]

The Naeken!!! 🤩 What a brilliant game! It's so refreshing to see so much Swedish folklore throughout this game.

[@wilmaaugustsson8082]

Swede here! Daz, that “witch” is a he (in most stories) and he is called Näcken. He is a naked man that sits by the water (creeks mostly) and plays his violin or harp and he lures people, children mostly, to the water via the music and drowns them! In another game called Unforgiving he plays a harp! Love your vids!

[@uacancio7970]

The hedgehogs name is officially Geri and he deserves all the worms in the world!!!😂

[@Chloe4656.]

As a person who loves hedgehogs I agree he deserves every worm.

[@uacancio7970]

Hah I watched it again and apparently his name is Spike😅

[@Livv130]

daz named it spike in the demo video and this !! if there's another hedgehog it will definitely be named geri

[@AdoptMeAleks]

I still cant get over how funny last video was off you crushing the king gnome or whatever it was

[@quitra3571]

Same I laughed for like 45 minutes

[@michellegray7892]

I so love the Nathan violin witch character. The effort to put in that story which was in itself based on the real life dancing plagues (yes, plagues as in plural, happened more than once. Several times, in fact) where people would just dance until feet were bloody and several died from exhaustion because they would not-could not-stop. Hit several places throughout Europe with no connection anyone has ever been able to determine. No cause has ever been found for it either so it is nicely creepy and perfect to put into the folklore of this game.

5:45 every Swedish child has sung this song at end of school going on summer break, memories✨❤️

[@OnyxTank]

[@daniellaxgaadt]

do you kind telling me the name? the song is absolutely beautiful and I can't find it 🥰

[@_r0byN_]

@@daniellaxgaadt of course! It’s called ”Den blomstertid nu kommer”❤️

[@diamond_dude1011]

7:36 i agree and We've seen multiple videogame adaptations release over the past few years, such as the Sonic films, the last of us and Super Mario, with more on the way, such as FNAF and Minecraft. With it being a genre that's consistently picking up steam at the moment, there's a strong possibility that this game will get the live action treatment too if it gets enough attention.

[@Sorikee]

The hedgehog bit was in the demo I think from what I remember. I love games with beautiful music like this, it just immerses you even deeper into the story ❤ Isn't Tuva the statue at the beginning that was holding the glowing stone

[@MulleTyson]

It looked so peaceful and beautiful around 5:20 with all the white flowers “vitsippa” in Swedish and the beautiful song ”den blomstertid nu kommer” such a beautiful game

[@jackyjones420]

This playthrough is genuinely my favourite thing right now. Getting me through uni. Please don't stop till you finish this game! Love ya Daz

[@jesperandersson6603]

You are learning so much swedish mythology from this game. all these myths from my childhood is so nostagic and the song "den blomstertid nu kommer"

[@aurora9661]

in Norwegian lore, when the sun comes up all the trolls turn to stone. thats why they live in caves because they die if the sun hits them

[@Xyrae010]

Daz: "sees maushrooms" Also Daz: "looks like we're doing shrooms" 😂😂

[@iamarne5719]

for those who are intrested, those runes in the grimoire (in the witches house), are no words, i translated them from runic to swedish and from swedsih to english...you just get some random letters. so yeah ... have a nice day!

[@lunaaabug]

@@karmenswanson9560you 100% typed that with a straight face

[@variantprince]

I'm really happy that they included the lore about Näcken, its one of my favorites. From the second I saw it was like this has to be a Näcken and then they found the book after the scene and I'm like hell yeah!

[@Twistedfatearmyaoa]

ok so fun facts about the characters in the game if anyone is curious 1. the orange berries that the small people are wearing as hats are called Hjortron in Swedish (i think they are called cloudberries in English) 2. the extremely small characters with red pointy hats are skogstomtar or in English the best translation i have is regular gnomes, like garden gnomes but wild i guess, the design is very similar to santa claus as you call him in English but in Sweden we call father chirstmas "tomten". As in THE gnome, kinda. They are like friendly guardian spirits. 3. the trolls in the story turn into stone by sunlight according to nordic mythology, that's why they are only active at night (don't know about the helpful troll though since he is already made of stone) 4. Näcken, his background was basically explained in the game, but the reason i got chills as soon as i heard the violin was because in the tale i've been told growing up is that he lures in children specifically with his song and then drowns them (That was the depiction on the cave wall as well). 5. as for Tuva, I suspect that she might be a Gruvrå or a skogsrå, which according to google translate is a "mine raw or a forest raw???" but i'm not sure about that one. EDIT: spelling

[@mickiflynn4751]

This is such an amazing game... the story is captivating, the puzzles so unique & challenging, and in amongst it all is a hero that you are genuinely rooting for and care about getting through safely. There is such heart in the midst of the horror that makes this just one hell of a game. As Daz said this should be a film too... it is just so epic in nature without feeling souless or just a formulaic rehash of all that have gone before. I can't wait for part three!! Brilliant playthrough Daz and so glad you are doing this. 🖤🖤🖤

I really enjoyed this game, so creepy and strangely wholesome moments lmao

This game is gorgeous, the music is beautiful, and I just about adore the story. I'm a huge folk lore fan. When I saw you play Pt 1 I immediately went to the Nintendo eshop and was pleasantly surprised to see it was on there! My main consoles are PC and the switch but my PC can barely run Microsoft edge so I had little hope to play it at first. I can't wait to play it myself, I also can't wait to see what the developers have planned for the future.

[@knotyoursinnerr]

This game is absolutely beautiful! So much like Little Nightmares. Thanks for the upload, Daz! We love you

Great video! The water witch is actually a dude called Näcken. It's really cool seeing my childhood tales depicted in this beautiful game and seeing you of all people play it

[@misskysarie9016]

5:57 whole scene was so pretty almost made me nap

[@novalonn-nord8092]

Omg its näcken!😂 The creature you caled the witch is in Swedish folklore caled näcken(pronounced nécken), witch basically is a naked man in a river or pond who plays violin or flute and with the music lures everyone who hear it to walk down in the water and drown. He was back in the day often used to scare children into not walking to close to the water. And it’s so cool to see so many different parts of the folklore of my own country that I rarely even think of when i think of my own country. Love that the game is completely centered around our folklore and that it has such fantastic graphics

[@OwOShroom]

I have been patiently impatient waiting for the second part. I’m so excited! 🎉 And Daz there is a movie kinda like this in a way it’s called Epic made in 2013. The deer scene gave me major flashbacks to that movie!

Thankyou! So much Daz for continuing playing this game. Since you played the demo I was so taken by it, then your part 1 sealed the deal for me XDDDD

I bought the game myself because of Daz’s walkthrough and binged the entire game in two days!! It’s honestly SO AMAZING and Daz is going to love the ending I think

[@Noukiiss]

I love how this game is themed by Scandinavian mythology and the forest reminds me so much of my country so they did an amazing job on that, I also like the lil detail of the siblings blonde hair cause its very normal to see that in the country.

[@harleymelton6756]

🖤🍃I Agree with ya Daz this would be Great as a Film 📽️🖤...also😅Love your video Daz also gf loves them too Can't wait to more of Bramble!!!!

[@faret123]

It's cool that they used proto germanic runes in the book 43:18, too bad it's translated letter by letter in english, and not in swedish. The part "Listen to the voices", the voices part is translated very oddly. The rune for 'ᚢ' is called 'Uruz', it's used for the 'U' sound. The 'ᚲ', while looking like a C, is called Kauna (or Kenaz depending on where you look) and it's the sound for 'K'. So, in the game it's been translated to ' *ᚢᛟᛁᚲᛖᛊ* ', wich would be 'UOIKES'. Since the 'C' in 'voices' is more akin to an 'S' sound, they could've used 'ᛊ', and you could use 'ᚹ', which is the rune for Wunjo, for both w or v. So it would look more like this ' *ᚹᛟᛁᛊᛖᛊ* '

[@quitra3571]

Honestly I wish so much I could be friends with Daz. He's such a cool and funny guy

That troll actually turn to stone, because of the sun. There is many northern stories where, Trolls can become stone when the sun is up. And I can understand why too, this game is based to the north, it can be seen in the 10:30 scene, the creatures name is näkki(That is it finnish name, in english it's called Nixie), It's most of the time describes as a long thin creature with long hair that always has a Violin, that lures others close to it

I’m not joking, we leaned about “Nøkken” (Norwegian name) in 1 grade, when I was 6years old. That horrific story told to children. But thankfully not in so gruesome details. We had a picture of it in our classroom and I was terrified yet fascinated by it. Every small pool of water I saw I was convinced Nøkken was in there waiting.😂
