So James just assumed somebody's gender based on a statue! I guess LoverFella wasn't the first one to assume genders based on a structure built. For reference, when exploring the Dream SMP map, he thought the statue which was supposed to be of famous Twitter eGirl Pokimane was of "a boy with, like, a flower or something", as he might've put it.

I'm sorry for commenting on a 3 year old comment, but this comment made me realize, yes, that was something folkloric, and no, it wasn't specifically put into the game because I'm afraid of old people. That was. That was an awakening

[@AlonsoDalton]

While I haven't finished the first Yomawari game, there's one thing about it I wanted to touch on. Or rather, about the game's advertising. During the game's development, and leading up to its release, the story was always stated as "Your dog runs away during a walk just before sundown. Your sister goes to look for it, but doesn't return by night time. It's up to you to go and find them both." This connects back to the part in the tutorial you showed where the dog is hit by the truck. If you had followed the news for the game leading up to the game's release, upon playing it, not only did the tutorial lull you into a sense of comfort, but the expectations of what the story would be did so as well. I was just left sitting in bed with my Vita, wondering what the HELL has just happened. They had the restraint to hold back on what REALLY happened during the tutorial, all so the impact of what does actually happen would have an even greater effect, and that's something I REALLY liked about it.

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

This is absolutely spot on. What's also interesting is the games teaser trailer which released in JPN about a year before release. It was a first person trailer of a Japanese girl running through a forest and turning on the flash light saying "Sis, is that you?". Made me think we were getting a first person horror on the Vita and was the first game that really made me want to buy one and even though the game wasn't that I can't say I regret that for a second.

[@damn_son9683]

One of my friends owns a copy of Midnight Shadows on the PS4 and at some point, we all started hanging out in her house and taking turns exploring and fighting the bosses. I remember that this all started because at some point my friend asked us to help her beat one of the boss battles (ie, the boss battle with the Scissorman hand ghost and the artifacts) and then we just kept helping her with the rest of the game ever since. I was actually the one who defeated asshole pillar boss and started up on the giant black spaghetti monster boss before rage-quitting because of how frustrating it was. XD I also remember my friend not being okay at the end with the whole tutorial and Haru thing and having to explain it to us because we hadn't seen the beginning of the game. And holy shit, that final hand spider boss was terrifying in my opinion, and I thought the game mechanic for defeating that boss was really cool and tied in really well to the whole tutorial thing that happened just before with Haru. I also remember that we had slightly spoiled ourselves in regards to the fact that Haru wasn't going to walk away completely unscathed, so when we picked up the red scissor item and read the description, we just started screaming in realization. It was a nice bit of foreshadowing on the developer's part. Those continuous game sessions ended with my friend being in denial over Yui and refusing to let her go in the end. We literally had to pin her to the couch and rip the controller away from her while she sobbed in denial just so we could get the game to end and give Yui and Haru the happy ending they deserved. All in all, I'm really glad I played this game with my friends, and I think we wouldn't have enjoyed ourselves as much if we had played Night Alone and not Midnight Shadows, since it was the story and the boss battles that really kept us going and made us want to see the end.

[@doubleasworkshop1692]

Yomawari is amazing. And the second game is a near masterpiece. And the reason the second one takes control away from you a lot, is because that is the core of the story. Control and giving up. From the beginning of the sequel. And it is even more evident when you get the true ending where you reject control. It's an amazing way to tell a story through gameplay alone. Hopefully more people will get this game now on the switch. *FOR PEOPLE WHO SAW THE SPOILERS* It's not meta. The tutorial is LITERALLY being given to you by the final boss. You are literally being controlled. That's a fantastic way to tell a story through gameplay

[@Fluorite-Fox]

The dog part made me jump up from shock! It just came out of nowhere.

[@davemathew2430]

I think the jumpscare was the games way of saying "hey stay away from this monstrosity it can and will murder you if it is able to so avoid it like the plague." A way of telling you that they are dangerous without having to spell it out for you. Rather clever when you think about it.

Yomawari is actually literally perfect Though there are flaws for sure, the combination of gorgeous isometric spritework, Nikki-style nighttime surreal exploration with Dark Souls style checkpointing, and even the yokai/yurei having a cute but still spooky aesthetic, with the best sound design ever, its a niche product for niche people, for sure but for that niche there is literally nothing else like it!

Before i knew it this became my favourite gaming channel. You really made a lot of good points about horror in general here, not to mention that Rule of Rose music, really makes me feel at home here.

[@virtualboy89]

Hey Nitro rad, I recommend Bioshock the collection for a review. It seems like the kind of game you would like!

[@pennycat6317]

I have no clue why but the first game reminds me of this manga called Mieruko chan, it's about this girl who can see these really freaky apparitions and ghosts that are freaky to look at and she has to act like she can't see them as to not draw attention

[@Ndcrocks]

Rule of Rose has such a good soundtrack

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

Doesn't rule of Rose also only have like... one song on the entire soundtrack?

[@Ndcrocks]

@@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective no there is more, look up the OST

[@luccabritto2566]

When i saw the dog scene i was like *ok i definitely need to play this game rn* Not because i hate animals, but because of the way it catches you off guard

[@souakadpadkid6685]

So uhhh... I got Yomawari. I'm a complete wuss, so uhhh, wish me luck!

Thank you for using cartoon sound effects during the jumpscare bit, I don't have the heart for that kind of stuff.

Bubsy 3D is my favorite game

[@allawy4131]

SAME

[@hrgrhrhhr]

Okey

[@tarniabook3076]

Have you taken your pills? xD

[@OnlyInDr3ams]

Do I have to call the doctor?

[@mix3k818]

@@OnlyInDr3ams Not yet. You may have to put me in a mental hospital as soon as Bubsy gets announced for Smash 5 though.

Actually in the second game the mountains where Yui committed suicide is explained to be a place where voices of spirits draw people to commit suicide. So in other words the tutorial text is actually a spirit trying to drive you to commit suicide.

Hey dude think you could talk about a game called Darkwood? Right up your alley honestly

[@iamsosorry3175]

KZbin hasn’t suggested your videos to me since October what the hell. Welp, time to binge watch.

Love the Hotel Dusk poster in the background!

[@carlwilspang1039]

You should one day try Lost in vivo , it's alot like Silent Hill

[@BelelEscabel]

Great video, as always. You've actually made me want to play the first Yomawari.

[@SkaiXmask]

Nitro Rad great video bro still watching it tho but wanted to ask would you ever review the sly cooper series?

[@scoman91]

Glad to see you back in quality form. You did your research, you made no biased statements and you didn't talk down at your audience. This is much better than your last review.

[@Cawktism]

Sweet! I get to eat breakfast to this

[@StroboPyrzy]

Sweet video! And congrats on the accomplishments with the channel! :) I have found many good games through your videos, and they're always a blast to watch! A little side note: Poro (the name of the dog in the game) means reindeer in Finnish :P Greeting from Finland.
