I played this game when I was 7 years old. My mother was extremely cautious to *only* buy me and my brother officially licensed games so that we would always have good family-friendly fun. This game traumatized us. My brother is younger than me, and he couldn't make it past the first level (out of fear), so it was left to me to finish. And man, this may not be the scariest game I've ever played, but it is the most scared I have ever felt playing a game. I finally feel vindicated.
My dad rented me Conkers Bad Fur Day when I was like, 8. I played it for about 20 minutes before I turned it off and gave it back to him, telling him I probably shouldn't be playing this... lol
That because the PS2 & Gamecube could handle more bandwidth heavy visuals, GC = 18GB/s & PS2 = 48GB/s. The lighting/shadows would've been reduced by 90% If there was a OG Xbox port, It why most Xbox games are 30fps.
I'm shocked that Pooh's dream was not a reinterpretation of the nightmare he had in the TV show where he was put on trial by balloons because he felt guilty for popping Christopher Robin's balloon
I call it reddit horror. It's not scary at all but it will get you heckin upvotes because wouldn't it be crazy if something stupid and innocent was... Le evil?
I think the most scared I ever was when playing a video game was when there was a bug in Lord of the Rings: The Third Age that caused a sound file of goblins chanting to get louder and louder to the point I had to mute the tv and reset the game. No other sound in the game was getting louder, just the goblin chanting.
As those visuals reminded you of Alice in Wonderland, I can only recommend giving American McGee's Alice a look. It is exactly this low resolution, simple graphics horror Alice in Wonderland aesthetic that sets it apart from other games. My Baby's First Horror Game™ was actually 40 Winks, which made me very uneasy as I was playing it for most of my time as a young child.
There are a few fun things about those games. You can get the dlc by going into the files and just changing the flag from 0 to 1. Also like many older games you can totally bust them if you uncap the framerate, for the Alice game I remember if you uncap the frame rate you can do some fun stuff with the pig-gun thing. But agree on the recommendation they are very solid action-adventure games.
I have been watching your videos for a while now and what I unironically really love is that no matter the topic or how mild or unpleasant it was, I am always welcomed by the Octopath 2 OST at the end. That makes it easier to click on videos that sound rather depressing, or might be a bit spooky. It also obviously helps that the videos are all of a high quality and very entertaining, thank you for your hard work. I was never all that much into Winnie the Pooh, but I remember really loving Eeyore. He really did need a lot of help that he never got. Piglet is a great protagonist to make a „baby‘s first horror game“ for, since his whole thing is being anxious and terrified (that also seems rather concerning), but I wonder if Eeyore as a protagonist doesn’t also have a lot of potential for that kind of thing. Maybe if the game gets enough attention we will find out (though I honestly doubt that.
My first horror game was Silent Hill. And if I'm not mistaken, it was my first ever non-flash game. I don't want to think about how that affected my development growing up.
That because Winnie-the-Pooh Is literally a kid making friends with fae that took pity. Since It explain why they are stuffed toys but can eat food and their moments where It reminded that their supernatural beings.
I actually had this game as a kid. I had it on the Gamecube and I loved the atmosphere it has, expecially for Owl's, Eeeyor'e and Tigger's dreams. It's something I come back to from time to time to take in it's ambience.
I'm glad this game is getting attention. I played it when I was young. I was even worse at ganes back then and I remember it was the school holidays so I was allowed to pick a game to hire out that I could play on my dad's ps2 during the day. I was a good bit older than the target audience (it had actually been out for a while already by then) but I tended to pick games to hire based on what I thought I'd be able to actually play and this was it that time. It was so long ago that there were a lot of clips in this video I didn't really remember. I got stuck near the end, it was one of those things where I could tell I was nearly done but just couldn't do it. I suspect it was the pooh section in the last level or something because even when I got my younger brother (he's always been better at games) he also couldn't do it because he didn't really have the patience for that kinda thing. I think I felt like I had to give up at that point. So it's funny to actually see the end of it. I remember enjoying what I played of it though. It's also funny to me how people are surprised by the vibe, Piglet pretty much has anxiety, so it makes a lot of sense.
NAH NAH NAH, I TOO was utterly scared of Yoshi dying in Yoshi's Story for the exact same reason. The GBA version of Piglet's Big Game is perfectly linear, by the way. Thought the PS2 version would be too.
I bought an HDMI Converter for my PS2 last year just to play Kya Dark Lineage bc I missed it and only recently discovered it! The converter cost more than the game and I had to buy the game twice, bc the first disc was terribly scratched. 😂
you mentioned the widescreen crash, but it looks like you beat the combat section while widescreen was enabled. how did you do that without the game breaking? i've been trying all day to get widescreen to work.
I disagree that a game is required to "hold up" against modern tastes and attention spans to be worthy of passing to your kids. If we operated on this logic for everything, children would never learn to read anything longer than a tweet, and we'd never get to show them classic literature like Hans Christian Anderson, or even A A Milne's own Winnie the Pooh. We should expect children to challenge and overcome their own tunnel visioned boredom and displeasure. If they don't, they will never know anything else. My mother read the whole Chronicles of Narnia by the time she was eight.
8:36 well well well, sounds like you've been taking notes from a certain other entity on this platform regarding how you phrased that... if you know then you know, if you don't know... well, you still know 😉
8:40 This is something haven't spoken about to anyone publicly but yeah. Imagine having a child with the way everything is now financially. I can barely take care of myself.
I needed a break from some of the doom and gloom, so I played a kids horror game. This was so much fun to do, and I hope you enjoy.
You should check out Pandora's Tower as one of Nintendo weirdest rpg mixed with horror and dark fantasy.
Now showcase, PaRappa The Rapper.
Honestly Epic Mickey feels like a horror game.
This is deeply appreciated 😂
The idea of defeating the horror enemies by jumpscareing THEM is funny
In my restless dreams,
I see that town.
The Hundred Acre Wood

Jumping down holes in repetition, was also a Silent Hill staple.
"I got a fucking letter... Could Poo really be in this fuckin forest"
Whoever worked on this game had an absolute blast.
The graphics are absurdly neat for this kind of game in 2003 though.
Has aged really good.

Yeah the graphics, especially for the time were really really good.

This being a scary horror game has the same energy as Super Mario 64s castle being "deeply unsettling" with "scary liminal spaces".
People think Mario64 Castle was scary? Really?
Yeah, It's Skinamarink before Skinamarink.
@@erichzannbusoumuzanwhoa! those little baby toys that we all played with are actually so spoooooky!!!

Goblin.
During my uni years - it was a funny test for the start and end of the year. "What mental disorders each character of hundred acre woods have?"
we now live in a post-piglet's big game world
Always have been
A viral meme/game is like a force of nature; it just kind of HAPPENS.

Luigi’s mansion 1 for me and I used to be terrified of it now I love the series

I thought this was a fan game made recently, not a 21 year old officially licensed game, lol.
Licensed games back then were built different.
Everything needed a licensed game on tons of platforms and some studios pulled out their A game.
@@thelastgogetaonly one i've seen done in that style lately is that Grinch game.
@@kraosdadafusfus8034 the tie in game for Peter Jacksons king kong was really good, both human and kong levels
Yeah the 6th generation was built different
Yeah Goldeneye, one of the greatest games of all time is also one.

The Dutch angle in one of the levels might be the reason this is considered a horror game.
What Blood And Honey should have been.

What's going on with Eeyore is that the bottom of his house (not a mausoleum) peels away to show the stairs
Sold 2 copies for $300 and I got it for $20 last week. I love this, keep it coming
If you think this game is creepy, you could check out that one Mickey Mouse game.
"Piglet? From nextdoor? What are you doing here?"
If this scared you at '05 imagine what it felt like playing RE4 on release at 12 in '04 and DOOM 3.
1:01 people who made it for children and definitely dont have children.
I clicked on this not thinking it was a mug video. Idk why
I’ve said it before I’ll say it again: this game is baby’s first silent hill.
NAH NAH NAH, I TOO was utterly scared of Yoshi dying in Yoshi's Story for the exact same reason.

Omg!!!!the yoshi story death sound used to make me cry!! And the sad song when you lose all of them!!!
Omg I played this as a kid! I was about 7 when I played and it was super creepy for sure!

18:05 thought you were about to launch into a betterhelp ad
Some sections of the game are visually darker than Silent Hill itself lmao

I remember picking up this game from the library, got to Eore's level... absolutely fucking terrifying.
Truly, one of Disney’s forgotten nightmares
For a game from that era it's loking sick!
