The ending really killed the whole experience for me. Also, I feel like Greg's VA thought it was supposed to be a comedy.

[@ShadowLeggy]

Currently paused at 2:40:00 to leave my theories - will edit when video's finished. My guess so far is that Ashley is somehow behind all of this. They kept it pretty subtle, but at one point even John took a moment to say how Ashley was totally crushing on Anna, during the drunken texts. It feels like that also, since she basically pressured Anna into joining Spark and even made a profile for her - She may even be Catfishing under the James persona, since that guy somehow knew so much about Anna and her past. When we the player text Ashley, my only guess is she's feigning ignorance so she can get away with whatever she's doing with Anna. And with the creepy glitched-up texts from "James" ...well, the name and photo was likely a real person. Maybe Ashley did something to hurt or get rid of him in real life? I don't see how that would help her at all, unless maybe she got busted and tried to silence him. I'm not sure if the game's intent is to have supernatural elements, or if it's simply the lore of the near-sentient IRIS computer trying to help out (and creep out) the player. I guess I'll see once the playthrough is finished, but this has been really interesting to watch so far! *edit / spoilers* Okay damn, I was way the fuck off. I should've figured it'd come down to being "supernatural" of sorts, but the whole beginning really seemed more like a whodunnit mystery. I still think it was an interesting little experience though, John pretty much covered all the little flaws the game had.

[@ArchitectGG]

Can't remember the last time I watched a 3+ hour youtube video from start to finish, loving my run through of John's old content. How good is this game, as well. The typos are great at creating a semi-realistic and believable scenario. Looking forward to the next extended playthrough of a game as good as this.

[@meelamiela]

39:22 “The worst is that you can get kidnapped, placed in a torture chamber and no one knows where you are.....chill out though.” Lol my fav part

[@BexTheBoo388]

Damn that was extensive. Just finished watching the whole thing. It definitely had its moments where it gave me major chills because the topic was realistic (up until the end...) I didn't like that the big bad guy in the end seemed so mystical and it seemed a little like social commentary? It would have been much scarier if we weren't talking to the scrambled voice of the embodiment of another reality?? (Idk how to describe the Simulacra...) Like John said, I wish there was more of a real life threat, but the little things like the background picture of Anna changing periodically was fucking terrifying to me. They seemed to go too big at the end with their explanation.

[@belles_library]

Not sure if I really "got" the ending, and the meaning of the virus. The story and ending was much more clear in Sara is Missing. I was on board until the reveal it wasnt a outside threat, like you said. This game was a bit too ambitious for its own good.

[@xBenjiSx]

This was long, but I really enjoyed it. Yeah, you've missed some stuff (Applesauce and whatnot), but overall I liked your thought processes (the Critical Thinking, eh?) and commentary. Good stuff. The game looks like fun, despite it shortcomings it managed to creep me out. Probably because it's premise is quite mundane. Most of it could happen to anyone, just sitting in their room, right? The little bangs of the pipes in my flat and the wind howling in the night added to the atmosphere :) Just another random thought... It wasn't really explained how you get the phone. Sure, you are given two options in dialogue, but then it's never stated who would send the phone to you or leave it at your doorstep. At least in the previous game you just find the phone in a park or somewhere...

[@siegwardinspirit]

xBenjiSx nice to see a comment like this. Half the comment section was full of backseat gaming haha. And the phone thing irritated me a little as well. If it was explained somewhere, it would be ok. But just a mention in some fake news site, that it happened to some other guy, doesn't mean that it's cleared up.

[@KanaYukino]

WhiteKana the Simulacra might have simply deleted the screenshot.

[@epoch8150]

Simulacra wasn't on the phone tho

[@fierytigergaming8112]

he was also in sulky mode, so he wouldn't have listened anyway - you've got to hate people like that, who refuse to listen to you and take your advice just because you disagree with them on a few points - he says that he did most of the work with finding Anna and that you were treating him like a sidekick, that's because it was you and Greg who did most of the work - as it was Greg who informed you of the back-ups, which lead to you finding James which got you to Anna - but Taylor's in the background taking credit, all he did was research the mishap on Spark - you spoke to Yolanda, looked through the messages and found James, spoke to Phil, spoke to Cassie and set up the account - Taylor did none of that. Greg informed you of the back-ups, notified you about it being someone from Spark and was willing to hand himself in to rescue Anna. Just saying how it's funny that he takes full credit for what he did 15% of, and you did 50% and Greg 35%.

[@msochist8491]

The Fiery Jungle Lol, when put like that, you are 100% right. Honestly Taylor didn't do much. The protagonist ends up having to do most of the work since they have Anna's phone and the key to solving the mystery heavily relies on using her identity to get information out of people.

[@KaliTakumi]

Well there are a lot of people (including me) who send a bunch of texts at once

[@Randomeaninglessword]

I'd say that's a fair complaint, given that text conversations are a pretty important part of the game.

[@sejin1014]

@Kali Takumi It's not the amount of texts alone, but that combined with their length versus the time span they were sent in. Like the one at, say 7:30 from the mother (might be even better examples but that was the first one I found when I clicked randomly). If it were a couple of words in every message, fine, but it isn't. And I'm also OK with the real-time instant replies since waiting around for a realistic response time would be awful. But they could've at least pretended that half a minute or so passed between every reply instead of stamping like 14 "lengthy" texts as sent in 60 seconds. As I said, it might be ridiculously small thing to get annoyed by, but it is enough to completely break immersion for me.

[@lisylis8363]

Mellisa Fan Okay so when you're analysing a text, the key ideas and concepts (in this case, the explanation the villain gives for why this is all happening) within the text are called "themes". Man vs technology is a pretty common theme. In this case this theme underpins the entire game.

[@peppermillers8361]

I don't mind it honestly. Maybe it's because I tend to judge a thing by their quality and not be annoyed by a single thing, but whatever. I didn't mind the story in Superhot either, since the gameplay was pretty solid.

[@Arvalen]

The main message I got from this game is that our online personas or lack thereof shouldn’t be the basis for judgment, not that technology is evil, but we all have our own perceptions.

[@oldleatherstocking3185]

From now on I'm signing all my e-mail "Your Superior".

[@LexiiB]

this is so fun to watch. I love how you read this & the story is so interesting. your commentary is really entertaining here

[@stijnvandevyver7958]

Man, that was realistic. The tinder part made me cringe so hard.

[@juliusebola9389]

That's because you're an insecure teenager.

[@MrPoohbear12327]

I liked the uber long video. Your videos are more immersive than a lot of youtubers in my opinion, and with them being longer, it seems to make them even more immersive.

[@djidjit972]

I don't text like this, but a long ass message looks so dramatic!

[@siegwardinspirit]

Patchou Mojo most times, it's just rambling. Last time my friend sent me a wall of text, she came crying to me because her boyfriend was grumpy all day long and she thought it was her fault.

[@wingnutdrever3096]

You are brilliant at commentating on games. Intelligent, comical and brutally honest. I only found your channel a few months ago and I have to say, you are the most entertaining KZbinr out there. Keep up the great work.

1:16:18 MAJOR CHILLS

[@hotlover000000000000]

Right? I was expecting that to happen in Sara is missing, I'm glad they did it in this one.

[@AngeliqueStP]

LOL! John cringing through Sparks pickup lines and doling out relationship advice/anecdotes is the returning series I need in this world....

[@Eliza-bo4pt]

Personally loved the really long video, nice to just get comfy and watch something for a few hours (and your commentary was (as usual) hilarious!)

[@Liznmontes]

Are all mothers like that? My mom literally just told me what Anna's mom texted her, and it is so freaking annoying!

[@escapedscienceexperiement9824]

Mine too. They just seem to think that because you graduated high school some dude in a suit will stand outside of your door with an invitation for a high paying, non-shit workplace that treats you well. Im reading into it but it's a baby boomer thing. I just respond, "a job???? in this economy barbara???"

[@littlekitsune1]

Not inherently, no. The "get a job and be stable = happiness" is a pretty common boomer mentality, but the mom in this is being a pretty manipulative bitch overall.

[@walkinglei]

I thought that no animals got hurt during the making of "A Dog's Purpose"? I saw the video of the German Shepherd not wanting to go in the water, but I thought actor for the older version of the first owner said that it was just the dog not wanting to cooperate anymore for the day. They didn't force it, he said I believe.

[@fierytigergaming8112]

I watched it when I was younger, and found it kinda boring...

[@kazuswagger3242]

No animals were hurt, PETA edited it to make them look bad.

[@nickbock142]

I like the longer videos. Typically, when I watch youtube, I'm at work and large chunks of new media helps push the day along. It's nice to chip away at paperwork and not have to worry about skipping songs on Spotify.

[@mariex8168]

Hold up- i had to grab my glasses but my eyes did not deceive me... John really posted a 3 hour play-through. Time to procrastinate for the rest of the day. :^)

[@KaliTakumi]

I don't know why, but her background changing from looking down to looking at you really freaked me out

[@marineromoney5294]

"get this boomer shit outta here mom!" i'm cracking up sghagfshdj

[@SkarkDogy]

Longe boy

[@PunkkRatt]

DouchebagJohn isn’t this just normal John?

[@paulgascoigne5343]

No because he's not holding out on us.

[@jeremytibbetts4046]

isnt your name supposed to be guys?

[@charlotteserg4394]

I kinda napped three times for a couple of minutes but I laughed a lot with your reactions. Worth it. Totally.

[@slowsavage5522]

This is old but....APPLESAUCE GOD DAMN IT WOLFE

[@brenttwatkins4787]

The game: screaming John: “What’s the OS name?!” Me: incessantly screaming “applesauce” because that alarm was freaking me out

[@sserena2091]

I was in a horrible funk of depression and this video is helping me laugh and get out of it. Thank you! 💜

[@grumpysphinx4911]

A three hour John Wolfe video? Today's my lucky day!

[@TheAngryYumm]

It was proven about a million different times the dog was not harmed or distressed in the behind the scenes video. It wasa falsified story. Sorry.

[@littlekitsune1]

I've seen the footage and that dog was 100% in distress. Animal movies in general are pretty notorious for that, which is why mostly CGI is used now.

[@DynamicUnoTea]

I have never screamed "Applesauce" so loudly in my life. She told Ed the version when she was asking for his help after updating. Sigh...

[@Dadustbunneh]

I feel like I need to send my texts to john so he can read them so exactly and roast me for it lol

[@Gemricca]

I have never said the word "Applesauce!" in such a demanding tone as much as I did in the first hour or so of this video.

[@gronndar]

Man, this is interesting and your commentary is epic. This is the best video you have realised this year

[@hardfugoo1]

Weird, I was literally just watching your Sara is Missing video.

[@jess-md2is]

hardfugoo1 this game is made from the same people who made S.I.M

[@MilesPlaysPriv]

The fucking ringtone... why would you set ur ringtone to something that will give you a heartattack?

[@aliveslice]

If the phone rings, it's already a heart attack

[@reminusreoccuring1455]

Sigh, I really want to like this game but it feels like something is missing... The concept could be interesting but they execute it pretty bad, but at least it wasn't as bad as SIM (but it's still bad). I would love to see them try to tackle something like this where one of the people you're talking to is the culprit instead of weird spirit entities coming out of left feild, because they're not pulling off that so well. However they do pull off the whole "Who done it" kind of thing and I think they should focus more on giving us that kind of experience. I hope to see them improve on their concepts, I think they can do something great if they keep trying! I love having long videos here and there though John! I did like the video and it was an interesting experience!

[@itsBASILLICUS]

by the way, 11:51 , the reason they were upset is cause when you don't lift the toilet seat, i guess it gets splashed with piss? then it's annoying to not put it back down cause you'll fall in if you don't realize it's up.
