So, few quick facts: The "chasers" are a large dumb man who thinks Fiona is a doll (he crushes her with a hug and accidentally rips her body apart when she's dead), an homunculus who's jealous of Fiona's womb (she carves it out if she kills you) and a creepy pervert who wants to LITERALLY rebirth himself but knocking up Fiona (if he kills you... It doesn't stop him...). Being nice to Hewy also stops the worst ending (you end up kidnapped and impregnated). The first guy is the only one who can survive the game. If you don't kill him, he waves goodbye while doing the garden work in the ending. He's just a toddler brained hunchback, not a villain.
@@Venkullix This game is fucked. First time I died in the game was to the last stalker... and it plays audio of what he does to you.. I just turned it off and never played again.
Fun fact, the dog Leon rescued from a bear trap in resident evil 4 was Hewie. When Hewie gets seprated from Fiona in the forest near the end and fiona gets captured by the bad guy is when Hewie encounters Leon.
@@kelsb8121 It's true that they use the same dog model for Hewie and the dog in RE4, so literally speaking it is the same dog. Haunted Ground was one of several games that were meant to be Resident Evil 4 when they started out, but were turned into their own game later in development. I've never heard anyone from Capcom suggest Haunted Ground is in the RE universe, but it isn't impossible.
@@Apathy293 they also have the same personality, as exemplified by how Hewie came back to help fiona to return the favor because fiona freed him from the leesh he was tied to, and he returned to help Leon as a response to a similar favor, point being that Hewie repays his depts.
04:28 POV of junk through the zipper is a touch of genius. I know it's from Toy Story but the jankiness is almost on par with the game itself, so they match flawlessly.
I watched a long serious deep dive into this game a while back (RagnarRox)and now you're playing it and just taking the piss. The duality of UA-cam lmao
Yeah both Ragnar and Sphere Hunter are goated for covering survival horror gems. But Somehow with Ragnar vids you end up getting a lesson in theoretical physics, gd those death stranding vids were wild 😂😅😂
@@ParadiseAndGin That's literally the point of the game, you're a vulnerable adolescent and all of the villains relate in some way to becoming a woman. I'm not great at wording things sometimes but I recommend watching Sphere Hunter or RagnarRox's videos on it. Sphere Hunter has a shorter vid and focuses a bit more on the game aspects while RagnarRox's vid is almost an hour and really focuses on how the game gets you to immerse yourself and just how terrifying it is. I love horror media, but this game is the first thing to truly terrify me to my core, Silent Hill 3 explores a lot of the same things and it is also terrifying.
And on the second run, you can get the key to the main castle door in like the first 15 minutes of the game. And the ending cutscene is just Debilitas trimming the bushes, cause he didn't even know you're there . Cause the first encounter with him didn't happen
This editing is mighty good. Had so many good laughs. You take your time but man, when you deliver, its an event. Thank you for all the hard work making these, your humor and talent is fantastic, these are the types of videos i come back to watch again and again! Also, moomers!
why is this your fav game? the chars seem to have no personality, the main char lives in constant panic, the puzzles make little sense, and you basically fight the same boss 4 times.....
@keith3761 the atmosphere, the music, stalker horror, the exploration and criticism of how people use women for their own means, the GOATed dog. I dunno man watching a shit post isn't enough to truly judge a game's worth.
"Why did survival horror graphics peak at PS2?" Honestly its probably because that was the last generation that wholeheartedly accepted the AA market, which is what most high end horror games aspired to be. The 360/PS3 generation by contrast was all about risk aversion, which meant of course dumbing down gameplay and following the first person shooter trend so aggressively it became risk indulgence. If a horror game sold 1-3 million copies on the PS2 it was usually happily received. If you said the same thing on the next generations consoles, it was "why isn't it selling call of duty numbers." The other problem Pongsifu, specifically regarding the graphics, was developers leaning towards Unreal Engine 3 especially as the generation aged it became easier for Japanese developers to select that over other engines(often cheaper). Problem is, that engines weaknesses (such as the "pop in" effect of all graphics loading at once) are especially bad weaknesses for the survival horror genre. It helps a game like Gears of War at the time be a visual marvel, but it ruins the tension of scenes in survival horror. Moreover, that dirty visual style of the engine did not always translate well towards character model development and the limitation of colors in UE3 at times didn't take advantage of the higher pixel performance or stability the engine offered in regards to the genre.
OMG! Was waiting for this! Thanks for bringing back this gem! Edit: dude... back when we played it, there was no inet good lord going throught this.. some puzzles were crazy hard
I'm so happy that Haunting Ground is getting more recognition! I've been putting off watching this for a bit but I've been obsessed with this game ever since I saw RagnarRox and Sphere Hunter's videos on it. I desperately want a remake so I can play it but I know that will probably never happen due to the current political climate. This game has heavy subjects and it genuinely terrifies me and I love it so much. And amazing editing as usual Hewie, I loved seeing you again in RE4R!
Finally! Someone is actually playing the old masterpiece games. Thank you Pongsifu, you're such a god tier youtuber. I'm so grateful you exist, you give me so much joy and laughter during these dark times.
“Not sure that’s how fire works” he says… well maybe if you had gotten more than C in chemistry you would’ve known that that’s exactly how fire works, it freezes stuff
This was a random, blind EB Games (now GameStop) pickup for me back in 2005, and one of the few survival horror games I actually played all the way through and enjoyed. Really happy to see you play this one.
Hewie also edited this vid, what a guy.
He deserves a cuck chair

Deepest lore on Capcom White dog
Fun fact: for RE 4 the programmers had to nerf Hewie so he wouldn't overshadow Leon.
And yet, the Chad still showed him up anytime he was around
They didn't touch anything for Fiona, they knew us players would be worse than Ashley.

Making hewie the "real protagonist" of this game was the funniest bit by far in this video, "Ruh Roh bitch" had me dying.
This game is ahead of it's era. A strand-horror type of game but with a twist that you are the sidekick for a dog.
Dunkey!
This is the 0th strand type game
