ok so these people (yes, there’s a whole team behind this game) definitely used machine translation, which hurts me as someone who studied translation!! the notes, however, don’t make much sense in russian either. it’s not the grammar, it’s the way the surgeon writes his notes like they’re..poetry?? guy is talking about the most random things in the most extravagant way possible for no reason 👹 the note at 18:29 should read: “I like to observe the little things. Often on my way to work, I get fixated on pigeons or on a flying butterfly. So easy, gentle, serene. I love when everything happens gradually. I don’t even like counting numbers out of order, which is why I hated maths… Everything has to be in order. It even scares me at times, but that’s not the point. I performed 3 surgeries today and they all went well. Although, for some reason, it was the first time I came face-to-face with fear. I don’t know why, but it was unusual.”
i think the way the notes are worded is actually pretty nice. it is poetic, and even if they don't make any sense, they carry a certain feeling. it's a shame the devs didn't hire an actual translator
tangent: was having a conversation with a coworker (am a nurse in the surgery dept) about doctor handwriting. she used to work in St. Petersburg (Leningrad back when she was there) and talked about how I haven't seen anything until I've seen rushed op notes in Russian cursive.
@@lyrroht4472 I propose a game for you if you have not already played/heard of it. Pathologic HD or Pathologic 2. The narration although superior has a similar flow to it in the way it reads.
My best guess? A surgeon volunteers for neurolink after getting drunk at the corporate party. Now he’s trapped in a virtual world in his mind where everything is written in GPTese.
I'm a slow reader especially in English and the amount of games that don't let you read at your own pace is kind of frustrating! Like jeez how hard can it be to add a "next" button or something
Can you imagine if the rest of the text was like that? It was hard enough for Evelien to comprehend the (probable) “Google Translation” without adding that hilarious difficulty into the mix!
I've never understood why the standard isn't to do a next button, especially when they aren't reading it to you. It works well for all readers. The speed on the text for this game was absurd- even as a fast reader.
About all the pages with 'lore' - it doesn't really sound well in russian either. it looks like it was written by a little kid, not an actual surgeon with degree and experience, so yeah- 28:25 says 'don't shit here' edit: ok i feel like the dev is an actual child 'cause 35:25 says 'dev is a lonely nerdy virgin' in a teen slang and also i speak russian and the story makes no sense for me either!! the hell is IFU? guess we'll never know
At some points I was wondering if the person writing the notes was supposed to be schizophrenic and the people they were writing about weren't even real.
Games like this do drive home how machine translations are far from being any sort of reliable, and also that skilled human translators remain an invaluable resource. EDIT: 9:41 okay THAT was an odd way to get jumpscared.
@itsgonnabeanaurfromme I fell asleep a bit after halfway through (was watching this in bed on my phone) and the fact that I don't feel compelled to really catch up on what my consciousness missed out on says a lot I think, lmao.
As a translator, can agree. Machine translations are not the devil (I work with them constantly on CAT tools), but they are a tool, not a good final product. They are great for speeding up a translation process, but worthless for slang, context based translations or localization without a human brain to shape them into something useful.
@@VeWatchesVideos I helped out with a few scanlations (cough) and also have done some TL work as part of a real job; I agree that MTL is an immensely useful tool, even the more rudimentary ones I was stuck using years ago, but the fact is that so many folk nowadays are overly reliant on these tools besides in image and text generation that I can't help but feel many works are just gonna fall in quality heading forward. Eh, call me a luddite.
I'm genuinely so thankful for creators like you and your editor that have on screen warning when flashing lights are about to come up, I can't even count the number of migraines you've helped me avoid. Also love thisssssss, I swear bad translations just make it more fun.
My take on the story just from reading the notes: The person (possibly "Jackson") writing the notes was a surgeon who came to see his job as more of a curse than a blessing. He felt he was depriving people of the blessing of death. He began to write his autobiography, including when he met the Drozery brothers who hired him to help with "the perfect birth," (possibly an easy birth) and he was looking forward to it because he wouldn't have to get too emotionally involved. He mentions that they scared him, but that excited him. His wife and daughter, Lola, eventually left him due to him not being around because of his job. Some time after this he felt the Drozery brothers no longer thought of him as a friend; he lamented that they were not kindred spirits, but that they used him for their own ends. Then they likely killed him. Then there are letters or diary entries between Frank and Tedd (who I think are the Drozery brother), who are working with Anna, who is trying to resurrect Jackson using his book as an anchor for his soul. Anna has been "torturing" (brainwashing) them, likely convincing Tedd to kill Frank. She then manages to "resurrect" Jackson from his writings, but as a ghost he is more violent and strong. He was so enamored with death, he probably hated the idea of being brought back to the world of the living. It's hard to tell how it ends, but it seems like Jackson is bound to the basement and Anna is trying to think of how to use him for her own ends, part of that including bringing people to the house, including someone named Alexander. I think the thing in the basement at the end might be Jackson. (Note: I studied Russian but am very out of practice, but I tried to look at some of the original text and that didn't help much. Russian storytelling can be a bit bizarre.)
"I Fucked Up"... With using either a shitty translator AI or Google Translate and didn't take even a second to make sure it made any amount of sense. I also refused to bring in an actual human being to translate everything correctly to make this game and its story make a lick of sense.
For me, I used Google Translate, but I typed out the Russian words using a Russian keyboard, and I got a different translation: Russian: тут he срать English: here he shit I think this translation is way better and definitely more funnier.
i dont know about anyone else but i think i understand the story. so, the father i guess Alexander, is a doctor and someone along the way he died. Anna was his wife and lola was his daughter. Anna met two brothers, ted and frank. they began to hang out, as time went on, Anna began to miss her husband and found some kind of way to bring him back. However in doing so, she used the brothers as a means of finding things. probably the items she needed to resurrect her husband. she also tortured them? within the writings that the husband left, there was also a piece of his soul. so instead of bringing him back from the other side, she needed to contain his spirit within a new body. i guess that's where our main character comes in. Honestly i read a lot of manga that sometimes comes with crappy translations so, yeah
The mother and father were also fighting because of the picture the daughter gave her - given the note earlier, I'd suspect that it might have been daddy with a pregnant woman (the one he was helping with the birth) in his workshop and the mother might have misinterpreted as something else. Given the ending, it seems like it's our reading the notes along the path that bind his spirit into our body - I'd wonder if there was an alternate ending if you look at the book at the end instead of the note...
I got the impression that the surgeon "Jackson"" was the one being resurrected, and Anna was using his autobiography and medical instruments to bring him back. It felt like his wife and daughter left because he was never around, either due to work, spending time with the Drozery brothers and Anna, or other things. It felt like Anna was the 25 year-old woman, who was brainwashing Frank and Todd who possibly killed him, hence Anna wanting to resurrect him. I could be wrong, though, as Russian stories can be very esoteric and this one leaves a lot to the imagination. Alexander may be her newest mark to manipulate, and possibly lead him to the basement for something involving Jackson.
As a native speaker I can assure you that it’s not only the poor use of Google translator but that it’s also written quite awkwardly in Russian, at least to me it seems a bit odd and like fan fiction about Naruto I used to write when I was 12😅
Wanted to quickly add that in no way I want to laugh AT those people who wrote it just think that there’s definitely room for improvement in terms of story writing ♥️
This game represents late stage capitalism and how you feel at the end of a corporate work day when you know the words people are saying but you don’t know what the hell any of it means anymore. I’m kidding. I have no idea what’s going on but I’m here vibing anyway.
2:13 I’m fascinated how fast you recognised the Russian language ❤ 3:42 perfect pronunciation My guess the notes are confusing because it’s poorly translated On second thought, I pause the video to read notes in Russian, but they are written so weird that even I’m confused without translation to English 31:52 that’s a note straight fuking pinned to a monitor 😂 From Russia with love btw ❤
Idk if anyone already said this but the order of numbers came from the one letter that says he doesnt like math because he likes numbers to be in the right order
my best stab in the dark, Jackson is the surgeon. He was always slowly losing his mind/couldn't deal with not being able to save everyone. He got wrapped up in some sort of shady business with Fred and Ted or whatever their names were, might have been organ harvesting for a Frankenstein's monster situation? Jackson eventually died somehow (unalived himself after the guilt of not being able to save all his patients, letting himself neglect his family, doing whatever his shady dealings with the brothers) and Anna managed to reanimate him and then they lured Alexander in to feed him?
28:26 the first thing that popped up in my head was "а где тогда?" to be fair everything in this game is written badly even in russian so idk what all of that was about
game is abt a frankenstein monsters thing. anna hired the brothers to help her get the surgeon who was lonely and mentally unwell to come around and resurrect her jackson. i think your character is meant to be possessed by jackson.
Regarding the number code puzzle, at 18:29 in one of the notes the doctor says he loves numbers to be in order, so that's why the code is 3, 12, 13, 25.
😂 i think you ought to know, i'm watching with my cat Pixel curled up in my arms, and your spook at 16:50 ish gave her a big jump 😂😂😂 10/10, made this messy game entertaining, poor cutie 🤭🤭
28:25 I was half watching the video while playing on my phone and looked up just in time to see Gab nonchalantly asking "What does that mean?" while looking at a massive "DO NOT SHIT" graffiti. I'm laughing so hard rn
Gabs thank you so much for notifying about the flashing lights sections. It really helps me to just be able to watch the video without being worried if it'll happen or not. It means a lot 🥰
My take on the story: Anna could be the doughter of the doctor jackson who was so successful or work obsessed that he didn't have time for his family. Also dealing with experiments with some brothers. After the divorce he became mentally ill making strange letters about death and unlucky numbers. (Maybe eventually killing himself with drugs or something) Then in chapter three anna is trying to revive someone. Or continuing her fathers research. A loved one or the doctor? Enlisting similar named brothers to help out. Alexander the main character is chosen as sacrifice to host his soul. The game plays as jackson in the body of Alexander. Te visions are his memories. IFU is maybe best figured out in Russian. Wouldn't be able to tell what though. I am wondering if you would get a different ending if you pick up the book instead of the paper.
You still have Tangles on there! :) I actually played that one and I keep waiting to see you play it. I was surprised by how spooked it got me. Miss seeing more of these smaller one offs. Love your videos!
35:25 "Разраб одинокий чушпан-девственник" according to Google Translate means "Developed by a lonely virgin chushpan." I had to look up what a chushpan (чушпан) was because I was starting to believe I was seeing the letters wrong. It means, basically, a wimp. So, I guess it's saying, "Developed by a lonely virgin wimp."
Also the siren that was happening around the 34:30 and on mark really spooked me 😂 I thought it was in real life and I had to keep stopping the video to listen 🥲
So I got curious and Googled "IFU". It appears to mean "Instructions for Use", which according to the FDA is a "form of prescription drug labeling created for drug products". Don't know how that relates to anything in this game other then the doctor character?
I tried really hard to decipher the meaning of the notes for about 15 minutes. But then I just… couldn’t any more. 😂 Glad to see that even the Russian speaking ppl can’t make sense of it. A bit of regret wasting mental energy. But extremely happy you posted the video anyway. Very entertaining! 😂 Cozy vibes and a good amount of nonesense 👌☺️
Hey Gab! Fellow Nick Cutter fan here 😊 if you haven't already, I highly recommend checking out his novel The Troop. If you think The Deep was gruesome... man. You'll think twice next time you wanna go camping with a group 😅 but seriously, it's a fantastic story that is both funny and terrifying. A must-read if you like Stephen King or Adam Neville ("Last Days", "The Ritual")
The writing in this must be AI-generated... it's giving me the same vibes as those images where you can't make out anything in the picture, but it all looks so familiar and makes you feel a little bonkers :U
The numbers puzzle had a visible solution, in the note it says "he hates math because it's chaotic and he believes all numbers should be in order" so the solution is in order: 3 12 13 25
The translation of the words above the toilet at 28:25: Russian: тут he срать English: here he shit I had to actually add a Russian keyboard to my phone to type those letters out because Google Lens was only picking up the 2nd and 3rd line and I couldn't decipher the first line. But I figured it out in the end. I know this is useless, meaningless and a waste of time, but I did it (and do it with other UA-camrs when they can't translate it, so I'll translate it and leave a comment) in case anyone was curious. (Also, I absolutely fucking adore and love your desktop wallpaper of you and Beebs! It's the cutest!) Edit: The fucking translations for the notes are so fucking stupid. I truly wish that an actual person did the translation, rather than using Google Translate because the notes and the story make absolutely no fucking sense and it seems like the story could have had potential... But Google Translate ruins yet another game... Also, this game is basically a walking simulator with notes and keys. I wish there was something more to this game because it's a bare bones game. Also, I wish you'd leave the original note up for even a second or two so I could check with Google Translate and see if they truly did use it for each note.
"Тут не срать" = "don't shit here" There's no "he" because it's Russian letters And as it already mentioned a million times before the notes don't make any sense even in Russian. It's just bad storytelling or maybe AI generated script
@@aloher000 I have absolutely no understanding of the Russian language in any capacity. So, I wouldn't know that the word "he" isn't even a word in the Russian language.
What even were those notes? Lol I also like how you cut the rope holding the cupboards closed and instead of then opening they just fell off the hinges.
I think getting the number puzzle is supposed to be a try and fail over and over (brute force) attempt. There are technically 7 digits, but they are grouped so you have 4 slots and 4 digits. It should be quick to solve.
The number puzzle for the keypad is in that order because of the note where he says numbers have to be in order (smallest to largest), so I guess they just want you to know that means but any numbers in that way. But, it's kind of harder to think that way when they all get jumbled into one big number on the keypad anyway 🤣
The note in the numbers code room said something “I don’t like to count numbers randomly, that’s why I hate math…everything should be in order” The numbers were in numerical order :)
The order on the number puzzle wasn't as odd as you seemed to think by your comment at the end. I get if you weren't paying attention to most of the notes though, as they made very little sense, *but*...You found the numbers 12, 13, 3, and 25, and there was a note in the same room (or at least nearby) that said that he hated math because the numbers were "all random" or something like that, and that he wanted everything to be *in order*. Put the numbers in order and you get 3, 12, 13, 25, or 3121325, which was the answer. As for what the story was about. At first I figured bad translation and maybe they were on something when they wrote it or wrote about a weird dream or trip. But reading the comments from russian speaking people, it seems the dev is just a kid, which would make the game quite impressive.
There was a small notepad and pencil on the table with the numbers puzzle. I thought you were meant to rub the pencil to reveal the correct order on the pad. Because on of the notes said the answer was "on the surface". But not sure if it was even able to be interacted with.
Gonna end all my emails with "With love, your dad's a doctor."

10:35 I am so glad Gab said something because I was thinking "what the hell is with the purple prose in these notes" lol
At first, I couldn't tell if the notes were poorly translated or just conpletely unhinged.
Regarding the number code puzzle, at 18:29 in one of the notes the doctor says he loves numbers to be in order, so that's why the code is 3, 12, 13, 25.
XD That note being pinned with an actual push pin into the monitor!
You scream, I scream, the coworker behind me minding their own business screams, and this is why I shouldn't watch horror games at work. 😂
😂 i think you ought to know, i'm watching with my cat Pixel curled up in my arms, and your spook at 16:50 ish gave her a big jump 😂😂😂 10/10, made this messy game entertaining, poor cutie 🤭🤭
28:26 writing on the wall says "Don't shit here" lmao
11:10 just a sassy lil walk from a sassy lil man 🚶♂
THE TEXTS IM DYING OF LAUGTHER, CRYING SO HARD looove it hahha
28:25 I was half watching the video while playing on my phone and looked up just in time to see Gab nonchalantly asking "What does that mean?" while looking at a massive "DO NOT SHIT" graffiti. I'm laughing so hard rn
That background is awesome, looks like fantasy world Gab and BB ❤
"IFU... I Fear You" - yea right, that's the first association.
3:35 "My friend loved collecting balls."
Gab: "tee hee"
I love your background. It's so beautiful
Corporate party is indeed the true horror 😂😬
I usually like weird games but this is on another level xD
I would a) not want this guy operating on me and b) dread to see what his hospital notes are like after seeing these weird ones at home
35:26
It says: 'The developer is lonely...' and then something unreadable, perhaps a swearing 😅
The developer is a 10 y.o. douchebag that’s would be a translation
Mine came up with "developed by a lonely idiot".
And the son says "but you don't have a nice game friend"
28:25 it just straight up says "do not shit in here", oh well
Gabs thank you so much for notifying about the flashing lights sections. It really helps me to just be able to watch the video without being worried if it'll happen or not. It means a lot 🥰
Am I mistaken or did the books suddenly move at 9:41-9:42 ?
9:41 uh those books just completely moved and you didn't notice. hahaha
My take on the story:
Anna could be the doughter of the doctor jackson who was so successful or work obsessed that he didn't have time for his family. Also dealing with experiments with some brothers. After the divorce he became mentally ill making strange letters about death and unlucky numbers. (Maybe eventually killing himself with drugs or something)
Then in chapter three anna is trying to revive someone. Or continuing her fathers research. A loved one or the doctor? Enlisting similar named brothers to help out. Alexander the main character is chosen as sacrifice to host his soul.
The game plays as jackson in the body of Alexander. Te visions are his memories.
IFU is maybe best figured out in Russian. Wouldn't be able to tell what though.
I am wondering if you would get a different ending if you pick up the book instead of the paper.
The way BB looks at you is adorable!!!!! 😭
I know it's gonna be good when BB shows up at the beginning with a little shirt
such a majestic background, im really excited for the new vid gab! so glad i turned notifications on:)
Omg I love your cat he’s so cute ❤
Not much of a horror game but I was crying with laughter at those letters XD
The only way these writings make sense is if the doctor is Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz...
3:36 Did anyone else hear someone scream "I Love Balls!"
Yes, like a distant Irish voice... So weird 😏😂
You still have Tangles on there! :) I actually played that one and I keep waiting to see you play it. I was surprised by how spooked it got me. Miss seeing more of these smaller one offs. Love your videos!
35:25 "Разраб одинокий чушпан-девственник" according to Google Translate means "Developed by a lonely virgin chushpan." I had to look up what a chushpan (чушпан) was because I was starting to believe I was seeing the letters wrong. It means, basically, a wimp. So, I guess it's saying, "Developed by a lonely virgin wimp."
My instinctive translation was "I Fu*ked Up" which if I'm in a horror scenario, then i truly did
The translations were a horror in and of themselves.
I think this was a Frankenstein story. Scientist gets idea about bringing someone back from the dead, it happens, regret follows
Those jimpscares shot through my soul. Specifically the one in the 17 minute area
Also the siren that was happening around the 34:30 and on mark really spooked me 😂 I thought it was in real life and I had to keep stopping the video to listen 🥲
Has their been a cat boss with a sword in the FromSoft games? Seems like a missed opportunity after seeing that background!
love u gab you and jack are my comfort youtubers
I saw the icon for the Golden Idol game. O__O My friends and I love it! Lots of logic puzzles and a weird story
At 35:28 there's a creepy whisper saying "thats her" right after gab talks about the Russian writing. 😳
So I got curious and Googled "IFU".
It appears to mean "Instructions for Use", which according to the FDA is a "form of prescription drug labeling created for drug products".
Don't know how that relates to anything in this game other then the doctor character?
You might enjoy Abscission, an indie point and click with horror themes
I love your desktop background, hands down best one out there
9:43 the books shifted 😱
Ikr??? I thought was tweaking
Your voice is so soothing ❤
I tried really hard to decipher the meaning of the notes for about 15 minutes. But then I just… couldn’t any more. 😂 Glad to see that even the Russian speaking ppl can’t make sense of it. A bit of regret wasting mental energy. But extremely happy you posted the video anyway. Very entertaining! 😂 Cozy vibes and a good amount of nonesense 👌☺️
Hey Gab! Fellow Nick Cutter fan here 😊 if you haven't already, I highly recommend checking out his novel The Troop. If you think The Deep was gruesome... man. You'll think twice next time you wanna go camping with a group 😅 but seriously, it's a fantastic story that is both funny and terrifying. A must-read if you like Stephen King or Adam Neville ("Last Days", "The Ritual")
The writing in this must be AI-generated... it's giving me the same vibes as those images where you can't make out anything in the picture, but it all looks so familiar and makes you feel a little bonkers :U
The numbers puzzle had a visible solution, in the note it says "he hates math because it's chaotic and he believes all numbers should be in order" so the solution is in order: 3 12 13 25
Love you Evelien
The translation of the words above the toilet at 28:25:
Russian: тут he срать
English: here he shit
I had to actually add a Russian keyboard to my phone to type those letters out because Google Lens was only picking up the 2nd and 3rd line and I couldn't decipher the first line. But I figured it out in the end.
I know this is useless, meaningless and a waste of time, but I did it (and do it with other UA-camrs when they can't translate it, so I'll translate it and leave a comment) in case anyone was curious.
(Also, I absolutely fucking adore and love your desktop wallpaper of you and Beebs! It's the cutest!)
Edit: The fucking translations for the notes are so fucking stupid. I truly wish that an actual person did the translation, rather than using Google Translate because the notes and the story make absolutely no fucking sense and it seems like the story could have had potential... But Google Translate ruins yet another game... Also, this game is basically a walking simulator with notes and keys. I wish there was something more to this game because it's a bare bones game. Also, I wish you'd leave the original note up for even a second or two so I could check with Google Translate and see if they truly did use it for each note.
"Тут не срать" = "don't shit here"
There's no "he" because it's Russian letters
And as it already mentioned a million times before the notes don't make any sense even in Russian. It's just bad storytelling or maybe AI generated script
@@aloher000 I have absolutely no understanding of the Russian language in any capacity. So, I wouldn't know that the word "he" isn't even a word in the Russian language.
Oh WOW that desktop art!!
Gab you need to continue Fran Bow I would love ❤️ to see you continue it and to see you also play Storyteller. Wishing you well from Canada 🇨🇦
I thought the title meant "I F**ed Up" at first and this was going to be some kind of apology video from Gab
Me crying cause the notes hit home so well and then says what's this guy smoking 😂 maybe I smoked a lil 😂😂😂
What even were those notes? Lol I also like how you cut the rope holding the cupboards closed and instead of then opening they just fell off the hinges.
The artist behind your wallpapers are amazing!
I think getting the number puzzle is supposed to be a try and fail over and over (brute force) attempt. There are technically 7 digits, but they are grouped so you have 4 slots and 4 digits. It should be quick to solve.
The number puzzle for the keypad is in that order because of the note where he says numbers have to be in order (smallest to largest), so I guess they just want you to know that means but any numbers in that way. But, it's kind of harder to think that way when they all get jumbled into one big number on the keypad anyway 🤣
The note in the numbers code room said something “I don’t like to count numbers randomly, that’s why I hate math…everything should be in order”
The numbers were in numerical order :)
I thought the desktop background was a fan made game at first and that was the title page! The lady in the basement scared the heck out of me
The order on the number puzzle wasn't as odd as you seemed to think by your comment at the end. I get if you weren't paying attention to most of the notes though, as they made very little sense, *but*...You found the numbers 12, 13, 3, and 25, and there was a note in the same room (or at least nearby) that said that he hated math because the numbers were "all random" or something like that, and that he wanted everything to be *in order*.
Put the numbers in order and you get 3, 12, 13, 25, or 3121325, which was the answer.
As for what the story was about. At first I figured bad translation and maybe they were on something when they wrote it or wrote about a weird dream or trip. But reading the comments from russian speaking people, it seems the dev is just a kid, which would make the game quite impressive.
I was looking for this game under your videos the day before yesterday lol! I'm so glad u played this!! ❤ I love your videos. Thank you 😊 🙏
There was a small notepad and pencil on the table with the numbers puzzle. I thought you were meant to rub the pencil to reveal the correct order on the pad. Because on of the notes said the answer was "on the surface". But not sure if it was even able to be interacted with.
