Yeah, I reckon the slower clock speed on the PAL system exacerbates the performance issues throughout the game and suddenly loading in all those assets creates a bottleneck in the system due to a poor conversion to the 50hz standard (the PAL build may have only been tested on developer machines and not region-specific hardware, or may not have had thorough testing.) The re-release probably just has a line of code added to it that causes all enemies that are currently loaded in memory to explode in the event of such an issue in order to prevent the crash. That's assuming that what happens in that room isn't identical in the original Japanese release, or something brought about by the emulator

When playing the game it felt like just one world and about 5 unique locations. Perhaps they count every screen as a new location. It's weird. x)

I absolutely loved that little segment at the end that talked about playing obscure games you never heard of. Quite a few years ago I wanted to try out Earthbound after hearing about all the praise for it. I decided to emulate it since I didn't have a WII U and when I was getting the ROM I saw 2 other roms from the same series next to it. I had no clue Earthbound even WAS part of a series and I downloaded Mother 1 and Mother 3 as well for the fun of it. I actually got kinda bored of Earthbound halfway through and decided to take a break from it by seeing what Mother 3 was like. I ended up absolutely loving it and actually stopped playing Earthbound to just play Mother 3 to the end. Its actually my favourite game now and I would have never played it if I didn't just try it out on random from an emulation site. Try out weird games people. Even if the games are shit you can at least say you experienced it.

My friend was gifted this when it came out, we had never heard of it but what an experience it was! Absolutely hilarious game, kind of awful, yet it was so different and obscure in the most fascinating way that we could not put it down. Him slapping his arse at the start of the game is still burnt into my memory 20 years later. There was a certain mystery to games back in the late 90's/ early 2000's, going into Game and just picking random games out of the discounted section, I played so many objectively terrible games but had the best time playing them.

Charlie this video gave me the biggest damn grin the longer it went on. I completely felt that energy you were expressing with how the game escalates its story while being totally sincere with itself, its a feel you can only really get from the experimental days of the 5th and 6th gen games. I'm kind of upset this game only got a PAL release, but I have already hunted down some ISOs to use in an emulator so I can experience this ride for myself. Your little speech at the end really hits it right on the head, about finding unique experiences in games that time has forgotten and finding the joy in playing them.

I feel like I'm one of the few people who actually played this game when it came out. I never got really far into it but I definitely remember being somewhat awe struck with the scale and the world; the cooling towers in the game was always something that stuck in my mind even now

You got me thinking about the Raz situation and I thought of something that could help bridge the gap a bit more. What if Clone Raz DOES still have Evil Raz's memories but they put a mental block in place that stopped him from accessing them during the time of OB1? The only other case of cloning we see is Millie and she still has all her memories in tact as a perfect clone so it's likely Clone Raz, being another perfect clone, had his memories but was then brainwashed into forgetting them. Over the next 20 years the brainwashing would come undone and his memories would return to him, giving him back the knowledge and skills of Evil Raz but with the added experience of Clone Raz, making him actually become something of an amalgamation of both with him picking and choosing the details of his backstory depending on what's more convenient to the situation. Thus, he describes his time at Lystra Labs from the perspective of Evil Raz but leaves out all the stuff concerning him being a clone because, for all intents and purposes, he is THE Raz Carcy. The other scientists getting their memories wiped just gave him an easy out to pick and choose what he wants people to know that he knows.

I've been waiting for this since your original Overblood video, and it was absolutely worth it! I truly love your deep dives into obscure games that probably don't deserve the level of scrutiny you give them. And yet you're able to pull actually very interesting insights from games like Overblood 2 of all things. Amazing job as always! Keep up the great work!

What you said at the end really resonated with me. The Back From The Dead series is some of your best work because despite the games being unconventional and obscure, you can see the creator's heart and dreams in the finished product. And only those games can truly be called legendary.

Still remember the original Overblood 2 video from years back. This leaves very few videos which require some kind of remaster or remaking. Not counting the Skyward Sword Toilet Adventures, I can remember a review of Skyrim, a review of Alone in the Dark, an actual review of Skyward Sword, Sonic Generations, some 2.5D platformer about dreams and a few more.
