I'm pretty sure they do use the term high school in Scotland. For the most part, I think high school in the UK is just called secondary school and it goes from the ages of 11 to 16. College is the optional further education after you finish secondary school. And in America college and university aren't completely interchangeable terms either. Colleges are smaller and do mainly undergraduate studies, while universities are larger institutions that offer undergraduate and graduate education. Also, many universities divide themselves into different "schools" or "colleges" like how the University of Washington has the "College of Arts and Sciences" and the "School of Dentistry." You can be a student studying in either of those but you're still in the same university.

I just played the first Obscure a year ago in a quest to finally play all classic RE style games and was surprised at how fun it was, even in single player. A newer sequel or reboot could be pretty cool. I like how you do some...well, obscure...games like this and would love to see you do SONG OF HORROR. That one is more recent, but it's an incredible throwback survival horror game funded by Kickstarter that came out in 2020 for PC and 2021 for consoles but has gone fairly under the radar: the Prologue is a little rough due to the episodic nature of development but Chapter 1 is good and the game just gets better from there, hitting a peak around chapter 3-4 which offers some of the best horror of recent years. Oh, I forgot the major gameplay twist: on all but the easiest difficulty, when a character dies they die for good. Each chapter offers a set number of protagonists with their own abilities and weaknesses and if you run through all of them you must start the entire chapter over. If certain characters survive though they can carry over to future chapters, like extra "lives" and all have their own reactions in chapters. It makes for some of the tensest gaming possible IMHO. But anything you do is always a fun watch.

Oh definitely not especially considering the double barrel pump action shotgun that you can get in this game.

Obscure has a special place in my heart. It was the catalyst of strengthening my friendship with my best friend as well as the breakup of my high school boyfriend.

I remember playing part of the sequel game on the ppsspp emulator and I absolutely loved it purely for the background sounds of monsters which left a lot to the imagination and really drove the horror as well as breaking through walls unexpectedly. Sadly had to quit though because it kept glitching like hell during cutscenes

Now this was a blast from the past...I remember being introduced to the series with the sequel and only finding out about the first game AFTER. It was an under rated series that was actually really fun. A shame that the cliffhanger ending never got resolved...

Love your work! Amazing for a rainy stay-in day! Not sure if this counts as something you'd look into, but an obscure game I think you might find interesting is "Republique". It has a few monsters, but is more "horrifying" the way 1984 is than a Resident Evil game

There’s one more cut scene in the introduction where Kenny’s health is low and you see him being dragged from his feet before reaching the leader, leaving a blood trail behind

This is such a great video. And its even better because it helped me rediscover "alone in the dark". I used to play the demo on the ps3 over and over again when i was younger for reasons many people can probably relate to. I am looking to play through it fully now.

I randomly got this game in high school because I saw it was co-op horror, which was an immediate grab for me and a friend. What a fun gem, if not off the walls, ha.

I started to watch this video, but when I saw the first 2 minutes, I decided to just buy it and play it blind. That was a great descicion, this game was a blast to play blind and was one of the first horror games I've played recently that properly scared me.

Even though it was super janky, I heavily enjoyed the Alone in the Dark reboot game because it was the first time I'd played a game with such dynamic gameplay, with the interactive jacket inventory, combining pretty much anything you find, and just swinging things around for fun, honestly havent played a game since that could make me feel that immersed. Such great ideas, even if half the time the awkward controls and weird driving sequences were hard to bear, would definitely love to see a video on it!

Obscure was FANTASTIC. Stan was the absolute man in the first one, I was so sad he wasn't nearly as cheesy in the sequel.

I don't think it'd be considered obscure but another game you could possibly cover is the game 'Spirit Hunter: Death Mark' by Experience inc. I feel it's a pretty good game and the art/monster designs are very appealing, in my opinion as someone who consumes alot of horror media. I don't hear many people talk about it personally, but I recommend anyone to play it or at least watch gameplay of it.

I’d love to see a video covering “Escape from Bug Island” someday (but you have absolutely no obligation to do that obv). It’s a neat game, not good, but I always found it interesting. It’s flown under the radar since it released I think?
