Thats an issue as the viewer, we literally don’t know these people so it kinda ruins when Caz shows to much distress while you immediately forget who the persons name is once theyre done screaming over the phones with how linear the game is and it lacks any replayability. It would’ve been nice to have started the game a day earlier and actually got to know everyone and understand the layout of the rig so the experience of everything being changed is more jarring

What's wild is that Rennick realistically exists, especially on rigs. My late grandfather worked on an oil rig in the north sea and he'd always tell me stories about people like Rennick. When the Piper Alpha exploded, a lot of company men refused to cosign on the deaths because it "cost too much".

[@dbz9393]

Reminds me of deepwater horizon, the corporate fatcats just ignore all the safety officers warnings and drill which causes so many deaths.

[@Literally_a_Moth]

I think this game is not just a representation of the real world but a metaphor it. Rennick is likely only trying to make a living just as everyone else, though at the expense of others; his job is to increase profits and that mindset might be what made him so bitter. The game itself is a metaphor for capitalism. The oil company exploiting its workers and environment leads to the collapse of the rig itself. The monster will destroy the rig as well as humanity if it isn’t destroyed. That’s why Caz killing the monster was a perfect ending. The lesson of the story is so obvious and clues are mentioned so many times I’m surprised no one has said anything. There’s so much more to the story but that would take an entire essay, so well done.

Throughout the game you always had a sense of him trying to "fix" or more accurately run away from the problem and hoping that everything will eventually work out (him crime, his marriage, his job, escaping the rig itself, etc) even when reality tells him otherwise. Finlay telling him to "be brave" was so beautiful as he finally takes a stance to stand his ground and face reality even when it will cost him everything. GOD, what an amazing game!

[@sharondornhoff7563]

IGP was wondering why some of the men turned into mobile threats, while others remained stuck to the walls as meat moss. Me, I have to suspect that anger, itself, was a factor: Rennick lived, breathed, and crapped anger in his every line, and both Trots and Addair seem to have been really angry about politics, albeit from different sides of the spectrum. Gibbo got pretty touchy about Trots's activism at breakfast too, more so than their conversation really seemed to warrant. The main exception seems to be Muir, but the way Innes chewed him out for being careless that morning might've ticked him off a lot more than he allowed to show at the time.

Ignoring the fact it’s an incredible story, for someone like me, from the west of Scotland, finally hearing a game in my language, my accent, hearing words that only people from my home will know, it’s the first time a game has been truly immersive. I done an offshore safety course many years ago with a view to working on the rigs. This game reminds me so much of that (even though we never got onto the rigs, there were several emergency scenarios set up in the place we trained in and I saw a few similar here) I think, when you’re American or even English, you hear your accent and dialect so often you don’t think about it as much but playing a game, no matter how good, and hearing the sane American accents just tears you out of the immersion the developers are trying to create so this, for me, in my accent, with my dialect and with words in our language that are purely ours, and in an industry that has been a bedrock of our society for so long… It’s just so amazing, so breathtaking

I actually got the idea to try stuff like this while watching shows and getting a look into how the sound design works. Always wondered about how they get the voices to sound so fitting in the rooms and I leaned about how actors go into the studio to records dubs after filming if the in-field audio is too noisy. And I just thought one day to try it out and I loved the result. And now it's just super fun trying to get the audio to fit every environment.

[@Benign_Anomaly]

I'm honestly not sure they know what they're doing. At least when it comes to some of them. Muir is the one who made me think this. He doesn't seem to realize what he is or what he's doing to the other rig workers, wondering why they aren't helping him and instead are running away from him, and telling them not to leave him. I also noticed how all the bodies on the deck with him were placed in a sitting position upright against some surface, as if he put them there like that after killing them. Perhaps showing some sort of care, but he's unaware when it comes to what actually hurt them. Him. I think it might be a little different for each person, and I think it depends on their mentality when infected. Addair and Rennick both seemed a lot more aware than others (With the exception of Gibbo), and they purposefully go after Caz and call him by name. They're the ones who hated Caz the most right before the events, so after becoming whatever it is they are they hold that hatred for him and set out to kill him, knowingly. They retain some memories and personality (though maybe that changes over time, seeing as we only saw what happens shortly after infection). But some don't act as if they understand at all what they're doing. Like Muir and maybe Trots.

[@phyrr2]

Many of the same questions that come to mind when watching The Thing. It's a scenario that causes you to wonder what identity really is, especially when the lines start to blur or shift completely.

[@torytellstales]

I love the clever call back of dialogue with Rennick's character from when Caz is in trouble with his job vs when Caz is getting chased when boss man is infected. "You're in the shit now, Mcleary....." It's one thing to get threats from your boss about losing your job, it's another when your boss is chasing you down as a mutated creature still threatening you about losing your job lol

[@buggart]

Also near the end when Caz is being chased by Rennick, Rennick would shout "I told you to get the f*ck out of here, Mcleary!" as if he's telling Caz that if he was just a few minutes earlier and didn't take his time going to Rennick's office, he would've been out of the rig before the whole thing started.

Finally finished it. You dropping the lighter at the end is symbolic of Caz finally letting go of his hope. The faint flame he'd been carrying this whole time that if he just kept going, he'd find a way off that rig. He's hesitating, he wants to see his wife and kids again. But he realizes that it's too dangerous and lets go.

If he was mad, it was probably mad in a light-hearted manner. But honestly, the comment kinda fits with Caz's personality, because he's more of a direct person, likely trending towards immediate solutions to more complicated matters, such as beating a man who likes his partner, rather than taking a high road or some other solution. That, and most people probably know fuck-all about Diabetes, unless they have it themselves, so it kinda fits even then.

I agree! Though I can't personally vouch for/against slang (writing from the US), the dialogue feels really natural! Also, the character's voices change depending on what they're doing, like Finlay sounding more strained in the beginning, while up on the ladder, for example. It sounds like a movie where the actors were speaking lines AND doing the blocking, not just in a recording booth, which is AWESOME! The PS4 Spiderman games did the same, where the VA's recorded once normally and once strained to account for the web slinging. tldr: I'm in agreement!

Now that I've watched further into it, Caz actually makes the point that there's still some of them left even if they've been corrupted, and they each call for a person, for instance, Connor calls for "Mary" and the rest of them call for an employee on the rig that worked fairly close to them. It's basically a message about the value of relationships.

Hey, I started watching this video when it came out because I thought it looked interesting, but your intro convinced me that I needed to personally experience it so I've been waiting for the right time to play it and avoiding any content surrounding it. I finally played it the whole way through in one sitting today and it's now in my top five favorite games of all time. I like horror without a ton of jump scares because I feel like it challenges the creators to find other ways to make something scary and I never really felt that quick-release shock sort of fear with Still Wakes the Deep, it was just that lingering sense of dread that courses through you for every second of the experience, kind of like watching Coraline for the first time again. I love the concept that the main character is running away from something back home so now all you can do to protect yourself from the monster is run and hide. It was a beautiful and terrifying game and it gave me a completely new standard for horror. I'm going to finish this video at some point, but thank you for being so adamant about playing it personally. This truly is a game that's best experienced alone and uninterrupted.

By far, the best voice acting in a game. Not one bad actor in the bunch. I never watch the whole game play in one sitting like I did here. And you’re the perfect combination of a player that is terrified , yet also plays well. Good job to the game devs and to the content creator!

[@AsifAnsari-nn8kk]

you have too much free time

[@SpyMouse69]

If you are looking for incredible voice acting and also a great narrative/horror, I recommend Slay the Princess. It has all of these things and more. Trust me you are going to enjoy that one!

Speaking of playing well, I don’t think he even died. Like, he went through the whole fucking game without losing once

[@MrCowKillsAll]

@@furryassassin I think he drowned once, but other than that he didn't lose at all.

"Do oil rigs have trouble with hurricanes?" As far as I know much less that youd expect. Theyre anchored to the sea floor so no floating off or flipping over and theyre floating so no snapping of any stilts. The oil pipe might snap and cause a huge oil spill but they have prevention measures for that and the whole thing is metal so not much structural damage usually. Though of course, its never without dangers

[@lbonvillain-wm4ds]

What are you talking about lol. We lose oil rigs all the time in Louisiana to hurricanes

[@dominiklehn2866]

@@lbonvillain-wm4ds well yeah, they can be lost but not as easily as someone unfamiliar with them might expect

[@SleepyKurisu]

I've read before that there's two types of rigs the more notable ones like in the game that are anchored to the ocean floor by huge steel beams but also the kind that are anchored like how a ship is and that they float but I'm not sure how true that is

[@dreasdwolfox3435]

there's a few tragedies of pretty major losses due to rigs getting caught in hurricanes/storms [100+ lives lost in the case of the Alexander Keilland in the 1980s]. Though part of rigs being lost/damaged seems to always line up with poor safety adherence in combination with a natural disaster of some kind.

[@dominiklehn2866]

@@dreasdwolfox3435 of course. But that's the case for pretty much any commercial structure, isn't it?

Honestly who else feels like that this guy Should be in video games? Because I feel like he would just give such a good performance if he's being this vocal in gameplay and when I say that I don't mean like talking vocal like he gives emotion anytime he says something which most gaming channels don't do so it's a nice change of pace for sure I feel like you do a good job being a voice of the main character in a video game

Piper Alpha oil platform, north-east of Aberdeen, Scotland. It exploded 6th of July in 1988, and killed 167, including two from the rescue members. The crew on board the platform was 226, and only 61 workers survived and escaped. It is the deadliest Oil platform disaster ever. I assume this game was inspired by this specific tragedy, with it being set in the North Sea off the coast of Scotland.

[@colonelsanders515]

You Nailed it now there’s better safety improvements and requirements implemented because of that event I’m shur that’s what inspired this game was that tragedy

There's one thing I love the most about your videos, amongst a lot of others, and that's the echo or muffle effect you put on your voice when you're underwater or in a cave or something, it makes it surprisingly more immersive to watch. Thanks for the great content!

[@gingerchewd]

My man, 10/10 playthough, 10/10 commentary, 10/10 game. Probably one of the best playthroughs i've ever seen. All of your reactions were appropriate, nothing over the top, but you let the emotions flow. All of your commentary was intelligent, no screeching or immaturity or pandering. I loved the editing you did on your voice to make it seem like you were in the game. You also kept the pace up through the whole video with minimal cuts, which I thought was very impressive! You've earned my sub, and my like, and i'll be coming back for more!

[@ImAShinyPotato]

Yeah! The editing on his voice is crazy! You ca hear his voice change when hes underwater. Makes it very immersive!

[@nymuelovan]

Absolutely agreed. Had to sub.

[@lizzyobrien2376]

That moment, at 3:11:15, is a truly horrifying moment if you think about it. The stuff is spreading through the rig, sure, but it looks like it might be containable, reversible even. Fighting to keep the rig afloat and the last few survivors alive. And then… that godd*mn window. Seeing that, your heart just shatters. Whatever this stuff is, it’s not only breaking the rig and the people around it, but the very fabric of reality itself. It’s twisting and corrupting everything it touches, even the very air you breathe. It was at this moment, this ‘blink-and-you-miss-it’ moment, one that if you were in any bigger of a rush you wouldn’t have noticed, that you realize that no one is getting off this rig alive.
