Hey everyone! I'm going to be trying a few different things with this channel to see if it helps us in the algorithm. One of these things is to release certain series in their entirety instead of episodically. This means that content will be less posted frequently, but there will be the same amount of it either way. As segments from the series are edited, I'll be pulling short clips from them to use as Quik Bitz videos like the "*effort noises*" one posted recently. This should be a good way to ensure that content is still posted with some frequency while you're waiting to see each entire series. Let me know if you like this idea in the comments, and be sure to like/subscribe/etc. Thank you!
Posting the full videos and then small bits of the best clips (as you seem to have been doing) looks like a good way to go. Big fan of the new thumbnails. I always thought YMS Gaming would've been better for a channel name though.
So their power is being able to recall specific memories. But their memories are conflicting, and some are just completely wrong. So their power is just regular ass memory. Is that the twist? There’s nothing special about them in any way.
That's just what I thought, their power is conveying via visions what could just as well be conveyed via dialogue. It's a non-supernatural supernatural story.
How do you know you've watched too much AdumPlaze? When you hear someone mid-commentary say "Get me out!" And from the pit of your soul, you let-out a fully audible "GET ME OUTTA HERE! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING JUST GET ME OUT!"
I didn’t think it needed to be explained to this game that the “misremembered” trope only works when the real event was MORE traumatic. Like why didn’t they make the real memory that the mother tried to shoot her kids, but the two remembered her getting murdered by someone else and they’re trying to solve it from the beginning. At least that’s literally anything, and makes a slight amount of sense.
This has the same writing quality of that play that the wife in bobs burgers puts on where the twist is that she was the killer even tho she said she wasn't the killer.
The models are slightly better, but it still looks awkward when the characters have to act emotional about things. Plus the voice actors literally don’t give a shit and sound really tired during those scenes especially.
their memory is so bad that they can't even remember anything about the monolithic goblin story book they co-wrote together and was a huge part of their childhood other than the fact that they wrote it.
DontNod should really stop trying to make stories centered around powers, because they don't really do a good job of it. - LiS1: Max has time powers that conveniently don't work when they'd be the most useful, and gains random new additions to her power, like not moving in time despite doing so the first time or travelling through pictures - LiS2: Add in telekinetic abilities that don't do anything to enhance the core gameplay like Max's time powers do, and give it to a character you're not controlling and thus don't have direct access to - Tell Me Why: Memory powers, except they can have conflicting memories and remember things so wrong it's almost hilarious. Also they can talk to each other in their mind?
So, the true doesn't matter? You just pick a side, accept that as a true despite all the evidences that you supposed to collect the entire fucking game, and that's it? Wtf, there is no story.
@@coolchilion722 I'm not critiquing the commenter/genuine criticism, I'm just annoyed this game had to connect itself to trans people, especially as one of its main selling points, seemingly.

The twins killed thier mother on cold blood in what they thought was private and now years later they've come back to tell at thier mom for being a transphobe even though they really didn't give her a chance to really do anything.

@@dearratboy though it's nice that there are stories that aren't centered on it, making this their only personality trait, this game did rely on it pretty heavily
Glad to finally see this series on this channel. The full playthrough was painful so I'm looking forward to seeing the whole thing condensed into 50 minutes. I'm honestly proud of Adam for managing to make it all the way through this game.
fr I'm so scared of getting my hair cut short for the first real time that I'm planning on hiding away from civilisation for the next 3 months afterwards
Like they had SOMETHING with Remember Me, and tried to go back to it with Vampyr. But instead they are trying to appeal to a progressive audience in the worst kind of way. It's like they write "Super power+ LGBTQ character" and nothing else.
@@Guymanbot97 no fucking way they made Vampyr! Damm dude I didn't knew! I tough that game was very good, it's a shame really they had something going there
The EDITING!!! Adam, I hope RasenDen (his editor) is compensated enough because this was the hardest I've laughed after "dip". Man, I love the choice to release the entire game at once too. Thanks horse boi.
@@crunglemcbungley it frightens me that years later i still remember the "dip" but i can barely remember my life prepandemic but it got a real chuckle out of me, well played
Wait, did they throw a 10 year old in jail for saying they killed their mom, despite no actual evidence other than a plea of guilty? Thats kinda fucking weird.
Its funny that their so called super power has no actual benefit. What is the difference between seeing each others memories and just describing them ?
"And then they had sex, and it wasn't incest, because when you change your gender-" Adum, what was that about you not getting cancelled so long as Scoots wasn't around?
I just realized, since the twins can conjure up different memories, their power isn't really remembering things. It's more the power of conjuring up their imagination, like their imagination of what happened previously. So Tyler could be like "Yo Alyson check it out, I'm a wolf boy and you're a fox girl isn't it neat?" and conjure up a "memory" their fursonas and Alyson would be forced to see everything. How neat.
Adum: I’m going to get copyright struck Also adum: *sings the Lose Yourself opening word for word in the perfect Eminem impression* You’re playin w fire horseboy
Can’t believe Adum willingly gave up all of his remaining sanity to give us hella trans rights. Playing this game through and through makes him the one true ally.
Just saw a quick full playthough of this game and 100% fully genuinely. They found a book near the startish of the game that literally showed their mother was trying to be accepting of Tyler being trans. The book was called something like "Accepting Your Transgender Child" and after finding it they 100% said "She's still finding new ways to piss us off" like what? In what world should they be mad at that? She literally wanted to be accepting
They were less mad that she had the book and more mad that after a decade of trying to deal with the trauma of believing their mom was trying to murder him they now have to question what actually happened, and since his sister stabbed her with scissors and let her drown that could open up a whole other kind of trauma if they decide that she never intended to hurt him.
so basically we spent an entire game of boring investigation, false leads and it turning out the mystery we were pursuing this entire time never really mattered to deliver a message that Metal Gear Solid 2 delivered two fucking decades ago
literally as i’m looking through youtube wondering “haven’t seen a new adumplaze in hot minute” as soon as i get the notification for this it’s like you knew
Holy shit, seeing that they once had a pinned tweet telling people to shut up about asking for Max and Chloe to come back only to then do it now with Double Exposure is so funny.
First game - gay character Inevitably destroys a city Second game - gay character steals and assaults and runs from police and causes massive property damage with their brother Third game - gay character reads minds to manipulate people and gets her brother killed Either they can’t write likable gay characters or they are doing this on purpose

@@theunbearablejuan How does game pass work in terms of sales, does microsoft just give them a lump sum or do they give them a percentage. If it's a lump sum then my guess is that at best dontnod breaks even which is really bad because that's what happened to telltale.
@@theunbearablejuan Yeah in that case I'm guessing they aren't gonna last much longer maybe a couple years which saddens me because I'm gonna miss all the videos making fun of them like I miss all the telltale games let's plays.
I love to see Adam's decend into insanity with every passing minute. I hope that the video didn't get claimed and what saved him was the flute solo. Bye, Herbert.
So their powers are shared memories, and even then they have to decide which of the two options is the correct one first? So one or both of them are unreliable narrators? Amazing
Anyone else think this game actually looks a lot worse than Life is Strange? That game at least had its own art direction. This is equally shit, but way more boring looking
Eh, I think there are genuine improvements. The characters no longer look nineteen layers thick with oil when they get the slightest bit wet, for one. The textures and reflections are fairly pleasant too. I think it's a sidegrade moreso than a downgrade.
Never thought I could care any less about the things happening in a Dontnod game after Life Is Strange 2...I was wrong... EDIT: This game is literally "My Truth: The Game". Did twitter make this?
Honestly the funniest thing to me out of this entire video is seeing the 78 metascore of this game. I mean, we can all agree that such a brilliant game deserves it, right?
This is giving me the vibes of someone at Dontnod being given a really vague description of the point of Umineko and deciding they wanted their own thing about the nature of truth.
I’m so disappointed that Alyson’s phone didn’t clip through her hand for the rest of the game. Adum’s descent into madness with the walkie-talkie hand in LiS2 made me laugh so hard!
The most interesting thing about this game so far is the implication that there is a giant Adum hiding in the lake trying to communicate via SAESL. (Siskel And Ebert Sign Language)
Not to be harsh but... Can you transition while in juvie? Seemed pretty damn smooth is all I'm saying especially with the US healthcare system, could've left that bit out if you're gonna have this person be trans Also twins sharing feelings and memories psychically is so cringe wtf
I’m confused on where Tyler was. It seemed like he was sent to a residential/therapy facility as his prison sentence. If it was a private facility, they could have helped him transition. If it was run by the state, I doubt it? Either way, I don’t think he stayed in the juvenile justice system. It looked like he pled guilty and was then sent away to serve his sentence
yes, you can destroy your body before puberty. plenty of stories of people doing that. it's pretty fucked up since there's a high percentage of people who really do later regret transitioning and for some, it really is "just a phase" but i'm sure doing it before their body started naturally changing in the other direction can only make things easier from a process standpoint. of course, at that point it's up to the parents to allow it and have anything done. for example, the mom who wanted to transition her 6 year old. the story where the dad had no say whatsoever and you can easily argue the kid didn't really make the decision for himself because he was fucking 6 and never chose to act like or be called a girl when with his father.
@@MrHandss dude literally no one is saying kids should transition early, only psychopaths want that to get attention. trans people and doctors advise AGAINST transitioning when you're too young because you only develop your identity and self image later on. 14-16 is when you go on hormone therapy, which just halts puberty. If you change your mind you just stop talking it and your body just continues doing it's thing, no negative affects. Most trans people don't even get bottom surgery cause it's not good enough yet and it's too expensive. You'll usually see trans people get top surgery, which is something that can be reversed too, so what's your point...
A common localization in anime for "Why?!/Why are you doing this?" is "Tell me why?" because 何だよ (nanndayo) has three syllables for the lip flaps. Never fails to make me giggle XD
@tardo cardo lol, I was just pointing out my disappointment that a game with a character who is just like me (trans) is being developed by the same people who made games I don't particularly care for. Kindly calm your tits.
@@christians8821 The one where you destroy Arcadia Bay. I didn't read it myself so I can't say much more, I only remember the bits my friend told me about.
@@ThierryPeek That's weird considering apparently most people who played the game let Chloe die. I guess it's ok to retcon one of your endings so long as there's lesbians.
Love how the last choice boils down too. Who was right The two people who have shown throughout the entire game they can't remember events very well on several occasions and sometimes think something completely different happened to what actually happened A dude who we didn't see much of but he clearly had no problem remembering things
i love how they tout so heavily that tyler is the first trans main character in a video game when it isn't even true lmao. madeline from celeste is canonically trans for example, and that was released several years before this game as a trans person the way they show this story is just, so heavy handed and dramatic and i don't like it. it kinda feels like a cis persons idea of what the trans experience is

Plot twist, DONTNOD has had an agenda against LGBTQ+ the whole time
First game - gay character Inevitably destroys a city
Second game - gay character steals and assaults and runs from police and causes massive property damage with their brother
Third game - gay character reads minds to manipulate people and gets her brother killed
Either they can’t write likable gay characters or they are doing this on purpose
It does seem weird a game series with mostly lgbtq main characters always portrays most of them in the most negative way.

@@theunbearablejuan How does game pass work in terms of sales, does microsoft just give them a lump sum or do they give them a percentage. If it's a lump sum then my guess is that at best dontnod breaks even which is really bad because that's what happened to telltale.
@@1810jeff I think it's a small sum.
@@theunbearablejuan Yeah in that case I'm guessing they aren't gonna last much longer maybe a couple years which saddens me because I'm gonna miss all the videos making fun of them like I miss all the telltale games let's plays.
@@1810jeff I kinda want more cringy Dontnod games as well tbh
I love to see Adam's decend into insanity with every passing minute.
I hope that the video didn't get claimed and what saved him was the flute solo.

So their powers are shared memories, and even then they have to decide which of the two options is the correct one first? So one or both of them are unreliable narrators? Amazing
Is it just me, or is the lip syncing atrocious? They're talking like they're on the verge of biting into a big mac with each word.

bah-dah buh BAH BAAAAAAH
why is dontnods voice acting direction always like that? all the characters in all their games sound high as fuck whilst they're eating ham sandwicy
hi herbert, "bye herbert"
Carl from ATHF: "It don't matter. None of this matters."
I hate how overly sentimental everyone in these games acts. It’s always “omg remember when we did this” “wow I haven’t had this cereal in forever”
Anyone else think this game actually looks a lot worse than Life is Strange? That game at least had its own art direction. This is equally shit, but way more boring looking
Eh, I think there are genuine improvements. The characters no longer look nineteen layers thick with oil when they get the slightest bit wet, for one. The textures and reflections are fairly pleasant too. I think it's a sidegrade moreso than a downgrade.
Nah, the models aren't choppy like in the other games
Yeah, it looks like a cheap unreal project. At first i genuinely thought that the models are some basic store bought ones. LiS had character, at least
I'm pretty sure the Donald murt name was a trump reference, murt backwards is trum and they said he had a horrible record.

Never thought I could care any less about the things happening in a Dontnod game after Life Is Strange 2...I was wrong...
EDIT: This game is literally "My Truth: The Game". Did twitter make this?
No reddit
No Tumblr
This is edited really well.
better than most movies these days
15:00 good job on the WAP edit.
Honestly the funniest thing to me out of this entire video is seeing the 78 metascore of this game. I mean, we can all agree that such a brilliant game deserves it, right?
We put our glasses on, it everything in this game was still wrong.
*grasses
Man these people making these games sure know how to make people hate their main characters
Less hate more uninterested
this is beyond two souls mixed with life is strange
Dontnod falling even faster than Telltale did, somehow
They need to stop making games no one wants to play
This is giving me the vibes of someone at Dontnod being given a really vague description of the point of Umineko and deciding they wanted their own thing about the nature of truth.
i’m almost kind of ashamed to say that i genuinely laughed at 12:38
“everything okay with you two?”
“yes.” “no.”
Excited for the new style of video releases! Hopefully I won’t have to visit your channel twice a week anymore to make sure I don’t miss a video
“Swank juvie?” 😂 I forgot Alyson wrote that in the letter.
Oh how I've missed your editing Adam (the reading overlap, the ping pong, the screaming, it's beautiful)
He didnt edit this.
I’m so disappointed that Alyson’s phone didn’t clip through her hand for the rest of the game. Adum’s descent into madness with the walkie-talkie hand in LiS2 made me laugh so hard!
I'm so glad the Father bit is still relative.
When you read that first letter I'm just like god dammit they haven't changed shit
Everyone: AIN’T NOTHING BUT A HEARTACHE
Me: PUT YOUR GRASSES ON. NOTHING WILL BE WRONG
I can’t explain how much joy this brings me
Stellar editing. Love this.
indeed
The most interesting thing about this game so far is the implication that there is a giant Adum hiding in the lake trying to communicate via SAESL.

God, that meltdown over the licensed music was one of the funniest things I’ve seen 😂
It was way longer and funnier in the full playthrough :D
Not to be harsh but... Can you transition while in juvie? Seemed pretty damn smooth is all I'm saying especially with the US healthcare system, could've left that bit out if you're gonna have this person be trans
Also twins sharing feelings and memories psychically is so cringe wtf
I’m confused on where Tyler was. It seemed like he was sent to a residential/therapy facility as his prison sentence. If it was a private facility, they could have helped him transition. If it was run by the state, I doubt it? Either way, I don’t think he stayed in the juvenile justice system. It looked like he pled guilty and was then sent away to serve his sentence
@@Usagi393 I'm confused too which, y'know, isn't great storytelling 😆 thanks dontnod
yes, you can destroy your body before puberty. plenty of stories of people doing that. it's pretty fucked up since there's a high percentage of people who really do later regret transitioning and for some, it really is "just a phase" but i'm sure doing it before their body started naturally changing in the other direction can only make things easier from a process standpoint. of course, at that point it's up to the parents to allow it and have anything done. for example, the mom who wanted to transition her 6 year old. the story where the dad had no say whatsoever and you can easily argue the kid didn't really make the decision for himself because he was fucking 6 and never chose to act like or be called a girl when with his father.
@@MrHandss dude chill, no one asked for your dissertation.
@@MrHandss dude literally no one is saying kids should transition early, only psychopaths want that to get attention. trans people and doctors advise AGAINST transitioning when you're too young because you only develop your identity and self image later on. 14-16 is when you go on hormone therapy, which just halts puberty. If you change your mind you just stop talking it and your body just continues doing it's thing, no negative affects. Most trans people don't even get bottom surgery cause it's not good enough yet and it's too expensive. You'll usually see trans people get top surgery, which is something that can be reversed too, so what's your point...
I love when me and my friends get together and share our thoughts with our voices!
A common localization in anime for "Why?!/Why are you doing this?" is "Tell me why?" because 何だよ (nanndayo) has three syllables for the lip flaps. Never fails to make me giggle XD
YEEEESSS finally!!! Guess I gotta leave work for later lol, thanks for all your hard work Adam!
"The game has a trans main character."
:D
"It's from the developers of Life is Strange."
:C
@tardo cardo “Distorted World Views”
Yikes
@@SylentVoidkeeper the game left him a bit confused
@tardo cardo lol, I was just pointing out my disappointment that a game with a character who is just like me (trans) is being developed by the same people who made games I don't particularly care for. Kindly calm your tits.
@tardo cardo Everything right in home?
Chloe And Max's story are actually continued in the comics that they're STILL releasing, and they're absolute garbage as far as I know.
There are comics? Which ending does it take place from? And we should also petition adum to do a reading of it on stream

@@christians8821 The one where you destroy Arcadia Bay. I didn't read it myself so I can't say much more, I only remember the bits my friend told me about.
It's still going? I thought it had ended by now.
@@ThierryPeek That's weird considering apparently most people who played the game let Chloe die. I guess it's ok to retcon one of your endings so long as there's lesbians.

“First game with transgender lead”
Meanwhile, The Missing: 🧍♀️
Celeste also has a trans lead, really good videogame as well.
The devs tacked on that detail in a late DLC rather than having it be a feature of the main story. Not exactly brave.
@@mr.dr.kaiser4912 *cough* last of us *cough* *cough*
@@sox9445 ??? Neither last of us had a trans character, let alone lead. This has been confirmed. Is that the point you were making?
@@mr.dr.kaiser4912 isnt lev trans?
Guy who writes books here. Used to write fiction like this when I was 12-13 on Tumblr. No plot, just trying to appeal to my tween fanbase.
Love how the last choice boils down too.
Who was right
The two people who have shown throughout the entire game they can't remember events very well on several occasions and sometimes think something completely different happened to what actually happened
A dude who we didn't see much of but he clearly had no problem remembering things
i love how they tout so heavily that tyler is the first trans main character in a video game when it isn't even true lmao. madeline from celeste is canonically trans for example, and that was released several years before this game
as a trans person the way they show this story is just, so heavy handed and dramatic and i don't like it. it kinda feels like a cis persons idea of what the trans experience is
