NOTE: I've been getting hammered with comments about the mispronunciation of the Japanese word at 21:17. I apologize for the error, but please understand that I don't at all speak Japanese, or know how to pronounce anything in Japanese.
You'd think they'd stop getting butthurt over this.
Also, love your work. Big fan.
does anyone have any triple A batteries?
@@rackel9574 You unlock them if you beat bowser in less than a minute
@@rackel9574 I have triple 🅱️
Sure was nice of the twins to invite us to the haunted village ay Luigi?
I hope they prepared LOTSA RITUALS
*chambers poulter gust G-U* EAT SHIT FUCKERS
@@sweetwheatsy Hey they left a letter.
Luigi: oh yeh
Gay Luigi?
I am in awe of that ghost hovering in the background at 2:14 when James is talking about how they don't exist. Just a really clever sight-gag that made me smile.
I agree
That was super well done too, I almost missed it!
I love the building narrative throughout the video:
> "I don't have the XBox version, so I don't know about that ending"
>> "The Wii version have the Promise ending, but I ran out of patience, it's pretty impossible"
>>> "OMG MARIO AND LUIGI COSTUMES? *_80s training montage_*
the fact that he suffered with that promised ending just to put them in mario and luigi costumes lmaooo same
“Beat Breath of the Wild in under 30 minutes...”
Nitro Rad: “No way am I doing that.”
“...to unlock a Cucco outfit for Link.”
Nitro Rad: “See you in Hell, Ganon!”
2:12 oh god oh fuck, nitrorad look out theres a ghost behind you. oh fuck hes reviewing a game, he cant hear us oh my god oh no
Pizza Mafia I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out.
That was some great editing!
I kinda want to add ghosts in my old home videos without telling anyone now, hehehehe.
James: Beating the game in a minute for a ending? nah, beating the game in a minute for silly costumes? HELL YEAHHHHHH!!!
Why is that sequence of desperately trying to unlock the bonus outfits so relatable?
Getting secrets after beating a hard boss is some of the hardest love you can feel for a game. Bonus points if the secret IS the boss.
It’s so wacky to see the main twins as spirits in smash ultimate. It’s kind of wacky to know the sad horrific story of the girls... only to kick their asses with Kirby.
2:12
Nitro rad: "ghost don't exist"
Ghost in the background: *exist*
Nah, that's just Alex.
DAMNIT BILL we said NOT to Put the ghost there!
That is just an amazing detail. It's somewhat subtle, and there isn't a screamer or jumpscare
*swallow saliva with nervousness*
Bruh Imagine one of the complaints of your horror game was "it's too scary"
That's a dream, since you are trying to make a horror game. Its a goal to make something scary and goo over board
They definetly should have ran with that, with the ads.:)
There is a slight connection to Fatal Frame 1 and 2; in Fatal frame 1 there is a ghost called the hanging woman, she is wife and mother of the folklorist that went to the Himuro manor. She is actually Yae who escaped with the Folklorist assistant from 2. He was the one who wanted to help the twins escape. However since Yae was the only one that escaped , she had a fragile mentality. They got married and had Miku’s great grandmother(? Not sure if it was great or just grandmother) who was also the only child and survivor of the himuro manor found in the woods
I logged in to say this specifically lol
HauKawaiiChan XD
Yae marries Ryozo Munakata, they have a daughter Mikoto, then Yae hung herself in grief for almost losing her daughter and the other children dying, Ryozo went to try and stop the evil in the himuro mansion with the Holy mirror, but he ended up dead. Mikoto got taken in by a Mr.Hinasaki, got married to an unknown man, and had a daughter Miyuki, Miyuki then married Masato Hinasaki, her teacher, and had Miku and Mafuyu, so Yae Munakata nee Kurosawa is the protagonists of the first Fatal Frame's great grandmother.
What makes the separation anxiety from Mayu and Sae worse is that it's confirmed both girls actually fell *on purpose* just because they didn't wanna be left behind by their respective twin.
Sure, Mayu didn't plan to get a bent knee in the process, but chained Mio to her out of guilt... not to mention how it is implied that *Mayu was HAPPY that Mio ended up blind* and therefore being chained to each other for good in that one ending.
Sae hoped for Yae to go back for her, get caught and complete the ritual... buuuut we all know how that went because of Yae getting lost in the woods.
Siblings, whatever separation anxiety issues you have towards each other: *Please work them out. Don't do shit like Mayu and Sae did.*
Fun fact: Yae & Sae are actually the ancestors for Miku the protagonist of the first game. Why Yae’s the great great grandmother of Miku. After noticing her sister didn’t follow her she went back to the gate of the village and noticed it was gone. Her memories along with it apparently. The apprentice of the folklorist came back and saw Yae crying at the gate. He decided to take her back to his village and later on they got married. Later after having their daughter, they went to the mansion in the first game and they are their daughter that went missing is actually Miku’s Grandmother.
Also yeah Mio & Mayu in the Nintendo Wii remake do look older because they were aged up. In the original the twins were 15 while in the remake there were aged up to 17.
2:13 Gotta say, very clever here. I actually got spooked when I first saw it! Nice touch!
Didn't even notice that, lol.
Actually FF2 is tied into the first game. The folklorist and his assistant seen in flashbacks are mentioned in various notes in the first game. The twin that escaped, Yae is the ghost seen hanging from the tree in the courtyard in the first game (she married the folklorist's assistant) and they are the family that moved into Himuro mansion prior to the event that led Takamine and his crew to their exploration. Yae is also the Grandmother of Miku and Mafuyu, as it is her daughter that was the only survivor of ghosts that took her family. She (Yae's daughter) is also mentioned in various notes in the first game as being the girl that was rescued after she was found wandering alone in the mountains. The games are very connected. That is the great thing about them. They assume the audience is capable of piecing these clues together without holding you by the hand.
It makes me so happy when James got so giddy at the camera angles and the costumes. And that final segment with the mario music in the boss fight gave me such an AVGN vibe, its great
The Wii version's shitty endings are only good if you have the Mario and Luigi skins equipped. Never thought I'd like watching Mario strangle Luigi but this convinced me
And I’m still not convinced
I just laughed at the fact that THE motivation to get the promise ending is just to get Mario and Luigi costumes lmao.
I've seen people complete impossible games as promises to other people, I've seen people go back and redo an entire game just to get a good ending, teeth grindingly awful levels and all. I have never seen someone go through such pain to dress two girls up as italian plumbers. You deserve more views on this video
I have a twin and we were kids when we first played this game (she played, i watched) and because of that the story felt particularly personal lol i remember we both cried so much at the end. Sigh. A very peculiar experience.
I love how the video's tone completely changed as soon as you saw that mario/luigi costume !!
That Mario & Luigi segment was the literal best. So much dissonance with the video's tone, and yet so good. An indirect hint at a M&L marathon one day? That'd be... rad.
Mario & Luigi super star saga is the best RPG on the gameboy advance.
Something to point out...the ritual is meant to happen to twins around fifteen years old. In the original game, Mio and Mayu look maybe between ten and twelve. The Wii version makes them look older and defined and even closer to resembling Yae and Sae.
Also I just want to point out (SPOILERS)
Still reading? Okay.
The game actually lets the player know Sae PURPOSELY tripped and got left behind because she was willing to die and "become one with Yae". She and Yae had the same promise Mio and Mayu had to always be together so Sae thought Yae would come back to the village and fulfill that promise and finish the ritual. And of course, Yae didn't. Sae was actually placed back in seclusion many days before the ritual and the game lets you find their diaries. Reading them shows their thoughts on the ritual and how Yae thought the whole thing was barbaric and unnecessary and Sae being the only one to write anything at all near the end because Yae was gone.
The two children on the cover are Azami and Akane, twins much younger than 15 but were forced to do the ritual because a previous one failed (the one involving the young man who helped Yae and Sae escape and his twin). The ritual fails if the twins are too attached to each other or, in the young girls' case, too young and distressed by the whole thing. The repentance happens if the ritual fails too many times in a row, which is what happened when it was Yae and Sae's turn.
Loved the video. I'm a horror fan but I'm such a wimp when it comes to playing horror games. I did try to suck it up and play this game and I did finish it. Though while I did enjoy it, I'm too wimpy to consider replaying it.
Everything is correct except for the Kiryu twins. Azami and Akane were both actually dead at least before Mutsuki and Itsuki's ritual. They had to do it so young because there were no other twins at the time, or it could have been either the Osaka twins from the manga and cameo in 3 or Miss Kurenai who became a remaining just from being the only twin alive when she was born during a ritual as those two pair of twins were the only ones with white haired Remainings that was not from Mutsuki and Itsuki's ritual.
2:13 love the very transparent ghost in the background lol.
that ghost in the background when you said ghosts aren't real was a nice touch XD
Dear God, I am upset that I was only listening to it while at work and it took me actually watching it and not having it play the 6th time to realize he did that!!
Good attention to detail
2:13 i’m so glad nitro rad has taken his own advice when it comes to subtlety being a lot more frightening than jumpscares! it’s so easy to miss but for those like me who did notice it, it’s quite chilling!
hey! I noticed it, somebody else did! I only noticed it not watching this video the first time though.
Saw it instantly, got spooked hard, I am very weak to things like that lol..
Yeah didnt notice the first time, got me hard.
I noticed you didn't talk about the Crystal Stone radio. That was one of the creepiest parts of the game! Listening to ghosts memories during the final moments. It's like a spirit version of a black box.
Spoilers:
Yae and the Folklorist are the only connecting characters here that connect this game and the first one. Yae actually does escape the village, but she ends up losing her memories, when she's found by Ryozo Munakata (Folklorist apprentice at the time I believe, also Itsuki's childhood friend, etc), the village is disappears. Time goes by, Ryozo having fulfilled a part of his promise to Itsuki in protecting Yae, becoming a full blown Folklorist like his dead teacher that became the Kusabi, marrying Yae, then having a child with her named Mikoto, they eventually end up moving to the Himuro Mansion, which eventfully screws them both over. Mikoto ends up going missing one day due to the good spirit of Kirie (Girl Pointing) leading her away, so she doesn't end up killed like her three friends by the long armed ghost. Yae commits suicide, sadly the same way her twin dies by hanging herself (the villagers hanged Sae as a sacrifice) and Ryozo ends up dying due to investigating the dark history of the mansion, most likely being killed by the evil spirit of Kirie herself.
The curse upon the mansion sadly keeps their spirits there, so you do end up having to exorcise them, because they became hostile ghosts. So sadly enough they escaped one dark cursed village, where only hostile spirits remain to end up dying in a similar situation, where they end up becoming hostile ghosts cursed by the mansion, like the curse on All God's Village turning all it's ghostly dead inhabitants into hostile ghosts (except Itsuki) like Yae's sister, Sae.
Mikoto ends up having a good life after being found by officials, marries, has a kid, then that kid having a striking resemble to an adult Yae, the child is Miku and Mafuyu's mother, who also hangs herself in suicide. So Miku and Mafuyu are Yae's great grandchildren and Sae is their great aunt or something.
Also I like to mention, when Yae escaped the village, a part of her spirit detached itself, leaving her with no memories, it's theorized and shown in the Perfect ending, that this part of Yae possesses Mio, but it's not made clear until that ending.
i like your profile pic, best girl in 5D's.
@@slifer875 Thank you! :D She is best girl~
There is a connection between the first two games with Yae being Miku and Mafuyu's great grandmother. She is who Miku sees hanging in Himuro mansion that she mistakes for her mother (a lot of people playing did too). But like you said, the first one wasn't great about how it relayed some information.
The whole sequence of Nitro Rad trying to unlock the promise ending is so cute 🤣🤣
There is actually a direct plot line between this game and the first, though it's easy to miss (being more of an easter-egg for those who really comb through the notes and such to figure out):
The Yae in this game is the same one as the Yae in the first game (the mother who hung herself), and thus also the great-grandmother of Miku. Despite getting away she still ended up dying the same way as her sister.
Fun fact: Yae ended up marrying the Folklorist's assistant.... and both of their ghosts appeared in the original Fatal Frame. Yae is the woman whose ghost is hanging in the courtyard, and her husband is Folklorist ghost. Also... They had a daughter named Mikoto, who is the grandmother of Miku and Mafuyu. So... Yeah, the games are linked through family ties.'
I am so glad you covered the Wii version of the game. I personally hated the British accents so I got an "undub" patch to play it with the original Japanese voices. But that makes me wonder: Will you be covering the fourth game in the series?
Yes, he will, he will cover EVERY game in the series, including the 3DS game.
Also, where can I find that Japanese dub patch?
@@TheBreadB aww man...it's been a few years. I'll see if I can track down the link for it again. You might be able to find it by searching for "Fatal Frame Wii undub patch"
that entire part of NitroRad gushing over the Mario outfits and getting the Promised Ending was perhaps the funniest thing i've seen on his channel yet.
The scariest thing in this video was at 8:45, when Nitro Rad decided to keep the camera sensor exposed to potential dust that might fly in; he's a madman.
Dude the bit of you getting the Promise ending was great, I saw that you were worried about how people would respond to it on twitter but it's easily the standout part of this video!
This game is actually tied to the original Fatal Frame, by Yae Kurosawa and Ryozo Munakata (sound familiar?). After they left the village, they married and had a daughter named Mikoto. Ryozo is the Folklorist from FF1 and his wife, Yae, hung herself in the moon garden when their daughter, Mikoto, went missing. There is also hints that Mikoto, renamed after adoption, was Miku and Mafuyu's mother. Love your videos and am glad you're enjoying one of my favorite series. 💗
mikoto wouldve been their grandmother but youre spot on about everything else!
This dude nearly cried when talking about the fixed camera angles. I don't think I've ever heard a voice that contains such an overwhelming amount of joy.
Them: When they escape together it’s considered non canon
Me: Ah but consider. That is the best ending therefore it is canon in my heart
It wouldn't work with the FF3 story if that were the enging.
That ghost you put in the background when you said ghosts aren’t real actually got me. I find it funny how a 360p jpeg of a ghost woman hidden in the frame will forever be scarier than an unsubtle jumpscare.
When you play the fourth part of Fatal Frame, remember one thing. In the place where you will save the game there is a store function, where you can buy camera film and herbs. I am writing about it now because a few reviewers of this game have cut in on it, after which they drove hard after this game.
I just love how Nitro Rad just geeks out about the fixed camera angles its so adorable
If Nitro Rad uploads Halloween specials in September, and if General Mills already have their Halloween cereals out now, then it's an early Halloween.
As for the game itself, sequels tend to be more experimental, with the third entry seeking out to combine the best of the two prior entries.
So Fun fact for you connecting the first game and the second. Yae, after escaping settled down and eventually has a family, with Mafuyu and Miku being her Grand-children, which is likely the cause of there family having the abilities to see things.
So people were complaining that a scary game was too scary... nowadays, that would be a main selling point.
Apparently the logic for the camera obscura being different in each game is that the guy who originally made it made a fuck ton of different prototype camera obscura's and these are scattered throughout japan as either collectors items or gathering dust in a haunted location when the owner karked it, which is why some of them have features that other's lack.
It's never explained if there was any that technically made it out of the prototype stage but still, this is the reason behind all the different designs of the camera throughout the series for the record.
The ghost in the background when you said "ghosts aren't real" actually gave me the creeps for a sec, cause i really only noticed it on second sight. Good job James :D
31:01 Nitro Rad is filled with DETERMINATION.
(To get that damn costume and I'm just over here cheering him on, lol.)
Oh god the ghost of Sae in your doorway actually made my stomach turn. Well done editing sir! This is definitely my favorite out of the series. It may sound tedious, but there are some ghosts you have to actually go looking for that only appear in certain areas at certain times, but they are worth it when you find them. For example, heading near the Kiryuu house I believe there is a camera angle that focuses on an empty building and if you get the timing right a pair of disembodied legs will walk across the floor of said building. It's very creepy to see, but once again worth finding!
I know the ending when you save both of them isn't canon, but darn it, if it's not satisfying to not only save her life, but give that village a final middle finger for the crazy stuff that happens there. Curse or no curse, those twins deserve better.
Eldritch Angel As far as this game itself is concerned (singularly) Promise is The True Ending. It makes the most logical sense as an ending and it’s an actual proper ending with actual resolution.
I love how NitroRad's second spoiler section ends at 31:45... right when he says "But I don't care about any of that, now I get to play dressed as Mario and Luigi, hell yeah!"
As a twin myself(the younger one), I find stories like these more personal. This story was far better than the first game.
i listen to these videos while playing games, only looking at the screen every now and again.
So randomly looking at the screen only to see that thing behind you wasnt the nicest surprise ever.
That ghost in the door way at 2:15 almost gave me a damn heart attack
I was scared out of my mind! I thought it was because of me always being a scaredy cat, but it looks like it was more effective than I thought!
What ghost?
@@Iinneus Look in his doorway
Aw man you said ghosts aren't real again.
Now you're going to get double haunted.
I love what he did at 2:12, very subtle.
Is there a ghost behind him?
@@1beatcherYep, in the closet.
The moment 'do not play this game alone' and you said "so what?", actually a kimono ghost guy at your door. Nice set up 😁😁😁
Finally saw what u mean
Lol that ghost is Sae posessing Mio it's honestly hilarious because I didn't notice it the first 20 times watching this video.
seeing the ghost behind you at 2:20 really scared the shit out of me for a second !
THELL8 I saw that too. It was terrifying
When you immediately went back to the final boss for the Mario and Luigi costumes I lost it, best laugh I've had in a few weeks
1:19 Excuse me? You dare to undermine the cinematic achievement that was Shrek 2?
That part near the beginning with a ghost behind you almost gave me a fucking heart attack tbh
Nitro: I'm not dealing with this
-Finds out about Mario Bros costumes -
Nitro: FUCK! HERE I GO!
But in all seriousness I'd try to if I was skilled enough
From Wikipedia:
Camera obscura (plural camera obscuras from Latin, meaning "dark room": camera "(vaulted) chamber or room," and obscura "darkened, dark"), also referred to as pinhole image, is the natural optical phenomenon that occurs when an image of a scene at the other side of a screen (or, for instance, a wall) is projected through a small hole in that screen as a reversed and inverted image (left to right and upside down) on a surface opposite to the opening. The surroundings of the projected image have to be relatively dark for the image to be clear, so many historical camera obscura experiments were performed in dark rooms.
TL;DR
The game doesn't come up with a made-up name for the camera. It's legit an old name for it. You're obscuring the light to get an image. Because without light to reflect onto something you cant capture it.
ok thats cute, Mario and Luigi costumes for the twins because they themselves are twins XD
I do not fear a man who spent a hundred of hours on a single game , but a man who spent a hundred of hours on a single boss fight.
That “ghosts aren’t real” part actually got me pretty good with a screen covered in finger smudges. Didn’t notice that at first lol
so you didn't notice what's on the door?
It’s superimposed into the open doorway but nah, didn’t notice it for a few seconds. Screen was smudged at the time. Didn’t know if I was actually seeing something there and got actually creeped out, haha
I somehow did not see that at all. Ha. James, you trickster, you!
30:40 The best part of this entire review series.
The moment we saw the costume we knew he was going to try to unlock it.
Can we all appreciate the ghost in the background when he said ghosts weren't real?
This fucking game made me cry so hard as a kid got the butterfly ending or something all I really remember is butterflies and crying my eyes out.
If ghosts aren't real then why do I wake up with pee in my bed at night all the time?
ghosts peed on your bed, uh?
@@jivranmanueljimenezllamas6628 Don't kinkshame the ghost
@@radlad6435 I never knew R Kelly was a ghost
Nitro: Ghosts aren't real.
Ghosts: Say sike right now
Honestly, being able to hear the wii load in the hand really makes me wish that a developer took advantage of that. Like you can't see the ghosts or whatever so the only way you know that it is in the room now, is from your wii.
My rule was always to keep Type 7 on default, as it was better to use that to get point-pictures from random ghosts passing by, and only switched when ghosts were actively aggressive.
I can just imagine the meme potential of those mario and luigi costumes
The ghost in your door way actually freaked me out.
It was a pretty good detail and it got me too
7:37 - "You gotta make the absolute most out of your limited resources, because your unlimited resources are not very good."
I love that line, and I couldn't tell you why.
Words to live by for sure
It is interesting how these two games are interconnected... Yae (the twin that escaped) is Mikus and Mafuyus ancestor, where as Mio and Mayu are descendants of Dr. Asou.
Just shouting "Say cheese b*tch!" When flashing the camera obscura to the ghost's face as the final blow and making it disappear is just too *Satisfying.*
2:20
Ghost: I'm about to do what is called a pro-gamer move
Lol just saw that and came to the comments. Well played Mr. Rad, well played.
I've rewatched this video a couple times now just to see the part where he discovers he needs to view the Promise Ending to get the Mario and Luigi costumes. I just find it funny.
Same here 😂
"What's gonna happen, a GHOST is gonna get me?"
And he was never heard from again...
There is a correlation. The twin who survived in this game was Miku's great grand mother. You know, the lady that hung herself in the court yard
Yep. Yae Munakata nee Kurosawa.
2:14 Ok, I just jumped when I saw that ghost on the back. XD
Nitrorad is the only youtuber I get excited with the longer the video is.
Dude your pacing and writing is just incredible, I don't feel like watching a 35 minutes video, it all passed by on a flash.
Don't worry, Nitro Rad. The freaky ghosts come back in Fatal Frame 3.
James’s desperate struggle to speedrun a boss fight just because he wants a Mario and Luigi costume
16:51 Just a teeny nitpick: It's left vague in how your script addressed it (so I'm not saying you got it WRONG), but Itsuki Tachibana, the Remaining twin with white hair, wasn't part of a ritual 10 years prior; he was part of a ritual that failed mere weeks or months before Yae and Sae were to be sacrificed.
The ritual has the potential to fail if the twins love each other too much, and Itsuki and Mutsuki failed. Failure, of course, led the village to move on to the next-oldest set of twins -- Yae and Sae. If Itsuki and Mutsuki had succeeded, Yae and Sae (the entire village, actually) never would have had to go through what they did -- the village would have been set for the next decade, and by then Yae and Sae would have aged out of their role.
Rewatching:
As a twin, this game really struck an emotional chord with me, especially how painful it would be to be split the way Yae and Sae were. Similarly to Mayu and to a lesser degree Mio, my twin sister and I get separation anxiety when apart, especially during times of duress. Thusly, Sae getting abandoned and left alone, condemned to a horrific death, eternal damnation, and eternal solitude, really got under our skin and stayed with us in a way most game narratives don't.
It also particularly horrified my sister, who would be the one strangling me.
Imagine fatal frame VR honestly the perfect horror game for the hardware imo
Absolutely.
I would be shocked if Tecmo doesn't have that project in the pipeline.
"...Not as scary as the first game.."
Naw man. Did you see that upside down stair ghost? The broken bones, crawling on the floor, writhing around and generally being spooky as hell the first time you fight her?
Agreed: also the Kusabi, the Kurosawa Family Head, the mourners.
It's really funny because a lot of his opinions are exactly the same I have and I haven't seen many who think like this either. It's been a running joke between me and my cousin. We picked up the first game from the video store when we were teenagers and I normally don't find any movie or game scary. I found the first game terrifying, the ghosts and the vibe to it, not to mention the Homuro mansion just totally creeped me out. But he didn't find it creepy at all and he loved the puzzles. I couldn't finish it.
But Crimson Butterfly I just loved, I love all of the fixed camera angles and the look of the ghosts I just find amazing but not scary. There was something more comforting about the village vibe than the mansion one to me (and like Nitro Rad said, Tachibana house is a pain!. The worst part of the game for me) and my cousin found the second game more terrifying and he couldn't play it (the puzzles were also too boring and easy for him). Once you learn about the lore aswell, I find the ghosts in II far more sad than in 1 or 3. Because how most of them are just terrified, trying to hide from this supernatural force. The one exception is the doll maker and how the spirit of his daughter went into one of the dolls, that was terrifying.
30:34 - This is why I love this man.
2:12- psssst, should we tell him?
Nah, he's good.
Here’s a thing: Yae is Miku’s great-grandmother and the folklorist’s wife from the first game. After the events of 2, she forgot everything and married the folklorist.
They then moved in to the Mansion. Their daughter found the camera, which drove Yae crazy.
Their daughter then ran away, and was raised by another couple. (Which caused Yae to kill herself) Later she grew up and gave birth to Miku’s mom.
I thought Yae was their grandmother. Was a there an update to this info?
Lesteryay Trippy
The Yae page on the Fatal Frame wiki
@@CrazyPangolinLady yeah you're right. Although Yae became horrified and killed herself by hanging because she thought ghosts took her daughter away after she found out about the camera obscura. It's a tragic saga smh
i have rewatched this video four times how have i just now noticed the ghost at 2:12
Dude you completely forgot to mention the radical ending theme to this game. It's soooooo freaking good.
I never knew the existence of ghosts was such a sensitive subject until I watched this video.
My guess is that the existence of ghosts is related to the spiritual/religious/philosophical worldview of a person. Strict materialists (those who believe that only that which is matter exists) would deny ghosts or souls. Otoh, those who believe in the existence of souls or spirits would argue that ghosts can exist.
30:40 - 32:06 This whole section is delightful. Especially after seeing the requirement for the costume and just being like "...Welp."
Kinda love how some people get upset about the ghost comment without realizing there's literally a ghost in the background. It's a joke about hubris ya dinguses
I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw that xD
That disc loading exploit is hilarious. I know meta gaming like that isn't really accounted for in playtesting but I feel like that should've been caught earlier. At least it's for something that's unnecessary.
Also that boss fight sequence was excellent. You channeled your inner AVGN there for a moment.
Personally, I prefer the Kasumi and Ayane costumes from the original release, since they're also a pair of sisters. They're even assigned based on the "true" ages of the two, with Mio getting the older sister's costume.
Also, Yae is Miku and Mafuyu's mother. And the twins are descended from the camera's creator.
I'm guessing someone has already mentioned it but Yae did escape, married Munakata, moved into Himuro Mansion and well, you know how that went.
But you can read from the news clippings on the 1st game how Yae and Munakata's child Mikoto was lost in the woods with the camera and then adobted by mr. Hinasaki. So Yae and Sae are Miku's and Mafuyu's great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandmas. Which I thought was pretty interesting and makes me wonder was this planned before hand.
He needs to know this!
