""UNO" rules" explains this so well so easily lol The game itself doesn't really tell you that though. I can see getting annoyed at this since it wasn't explained at all. This is why I don't really like puzzle games. I like puzzles but I don't like when they just put things in like: "Here ya go figure it out" with no indication to what is going on.
I didn’t get the comma thing as quickly as chat but quick enough that I’d already gone through the stages of grief waiting for Jesse to get there that when the penny dropped it was high comedy. There is no one better at streaming puzzle games
When Jesse brought up MS Paint I thought he was going to take a screenshot and paste it into Paint. Oh, no, he is actually PAINTING in MS Paint! God damn, Jesse! You're a Renaissance Man!
The number of writing errors in this is odd for a game with so many release platforms and such relatively high effort art. Like… couldn’t they get a random person to proof read it?
@@Steve-YT383 I’m almost positive it’s unintentional, because it occurs in narration AND the dialogue of multiple unique characters in the exact same way. Additionally, there are significant segments with no errors. For example, in trying to mimic the stylistic flourishes of a story book narrator, you would never switch between past and present tenses. On top of that, it interferes with the gameplay. None of the other errors add anything of value. Usually, intentional errors are used to tell the audience something about a character… where they grew up, what social class they inhabit, or their political beliefs. These don’t tell you anything, and some are simple typos like a repeated L or a missing space. The game design also has some pretty serious rookie mistakes. Often, Jesse has problems with games because he doesn’t pay close enough attention and because certain kinds of logical thinking are hard for him. Here, almost every mistake he makes is because of weakness in game/puzzle design, or sheer laziness on the part of the developer.
I'm so glad you finally figured out the second comma, Jesse. Child of a former English teacher, and I was literally YELLING at my TV screen when you said it didn't matter. 😂 They are intentionally trying to confuse you.
You are the child of the English teacher and I am not, but I believe "I saw it coming from afar" is a whole thought and you should put a period there. The start the next sentence with "Right before smelling its putrid aura, I heard the ground creak behind me." I am not the grammar expert but I think having two commas here makes it a run on sentence. The first part doesn't relate the second. The second part is a different thought from the first, but is the same thought as the third. What I was taught is the a ", but" is there to contradict or challenge what came before it. If you have a ", but" you are saying that they two parts are connected. I hope you'll tell me if I am wrong, but this feels like it doesn't work because if your puzzle involves exact wording then your wording and grammar better be immaculate.
@madhippy3 , the comma followed by a conjunction (and, but, or) indicates that while you could have written two separate sentences, you have chosen to keep them as one. "But" is used to join two independent clauses, and the first and last halves of the relevant sentence in this puzzle are unrelated to one another. It is my personal belief that a semicolon might have served better here, but I think semicolons tend to be a bit of a mystery to many people, especially those who don't read a great deal. (I really like Jane Austen, and they're abundant in her work.)
@@a_marrsbar Use of a conjunction means that it could have been two sentences, but they'd have been too short separately. As you can see there, if I made those into two sentences they'd work it just wouldn't look right. It also lets you change the style and meaning in written form. Here, as you've mentioned, a semicolon would function well since it's essentially comma and period. Like you said though, it's not often used because people don't know the proper use of it. I think the semicolon and the hyphen have started to die off. Madhippy here is still correct though that because of the double comma it's now a run on sentence. The first part is also unrelated to the rest of that sentence. It'd have been a lot easier for Jesse, and most people, to notice the wording if there was a period after the first part since the comma would have stood out more.
In the context of the whole sentence it doesn't make sense since seeing it coming from afar has nothing to do with the rest of the sentence. The "but" also doesn't make any sense in that sentence. What are we contrasting? The conjunction use of "but" means to contrast something that has already been said. Look at how you just used it. You start with saying you'd say something *but* (contrasting that statement) it makes sense. In the note she wasn't contrasting what she saw.
@@Eventide215 what? the sentence is establishing the order of events. "we decided to take a walk in the park but before we left, we decided to check if it would rain" is a perfectly cromulent sentence. the but is "contrasting" the rest of the sentence. this is perfectly fine grammar. the comma is misplaced or could be replaced with a period but you don't have to use "but" to only "contrast" previously set up things. but is used as a conjunction but what it's contrasting doesn't have to follow from what came before. english is weird in any case the game clearly has a lot of grammatical errors and the sentence isn't perfect but it's not that hard to see what it's trying to say and jesse got it eventually
@@aniforprez The example you used is entirely different and yes if you're using "but" as a conjunction it has to be contrasting what was previously said. If you're using it in another way it can mean other things.
@@Eventide215 how is it "entirely different" when it my example is using it exactly the same way it is used in the game to establish a timeline? but doesn't HAVE to be a contrasting conjunction as my example clearly proves using "but" to establish timelines is not even a particularly unusual thing. "you may enter the pool but be sure to to take a shower first" is not conjoining two contrasting ideas but the "but" works perfectly here. words meaning different things based on how they're used is not news to me considering that's how most languages work
@@aniforprez I'm not going to sit here giving you a full grammar lesson especially when you can't even see how your example is entirely different from what the game was doing. Go look it up yourself.
Well he is right though, but not why he thinks. He's right that it's not written well at all. The use of "but" there as a conjunction makes no sense. To use "but" as a conjunction means you're contrasting what you've already stated. She didn't do that here. She wasn't contrasting what she saw. So it makes sense any English speaker would get very confused by it because the sentence structure is wrong.
Exactly. You can eventually work it out, but it's not written well at all. That on top of the spelling errors earlier any English speaker would get a bit confused. You'd be wondering if it's just another spelling problem or a grammar problem.
I don't know how you manage to be so offensive, yet so funny, at the same time. I guess that makes me part of the 1812 crowd, but I look amazing for 212 years old. 👵
Jesse’s Old Lady Voice is giving Big Bad Wolf disguised as granny vibes and I love it so much!
"Actually it does" lmao I love you Jesse. I honestly thought you'd rearrange it a different but still wrong way.
Holy crap, "Actually it does, nevermind" was so funny it hurt my sides.
Give Jesse a choice of voices and he chooses...yup. The King of Candy.
Or the Mad Hatter.
Yup I love it, Always makes me laugh 😂

I'm trying to determine if they are intentional. Part of the character's dialect.
