Hey Librarian! Thanks for checking out my demo. I'll go over your commentary to improve your experience in a coming update. Feel free to let me know other feedback you may have that I can improve the game on!
This is an early Alpha it's nice to see a new dev getting into the works, I'm also gonna guess this is a first game as there's some design choices that resemble a new dev, placing copies of notes everywhere to make sure someone discovered them, etc etc... good luck on your first game.
You managed to depict a small settlement from the early Scandinavian Middle Ages in a very atmospheric way. The only thing I would like to note is that I would swap the models of the "Viking sword" from the anvil and the "non-Viking sword" sticking out of the door. But that's just a comment from one HEMA nerd) In general, you're doing a really cool job. It will be interesting to play the final version myself)
For those wondering, the runes at 21:40 translate as thus: Born of Odin and the jotuun Gridr, Vidar, the silent one, dwells in the forests, preparing for the doom of the gods. He watches all within his domain, judging and ever vigilant. besides Odin and Thor he is the strongest of the aesir. a swift and merciless vengeance brought down on the guilty, like this father, a bloodlust lies within him. With the strength of earth and the silence of the night, he prepares for Ragnarok and his destiny.
I shouldn't be as mad as I am that the sword on the anvil is called the "typical viking sword", while the one lodged in the door, that LOOKS like a common sword the vikings WOULD have used, is the one that is described as not used by vikings
That was definitely a figure seen running at 7:56. If anyone didn't see it, look between the two trees a few feet in front of the Librarian's view. The comma and period keys let you skip ahead or back a frame when the video is paused.
2:45 This is probably the only one game where people were provident enough to send on dangerous mystic detective case not real human but actual android from Cyberlife. He even has the same "scanner" with clues.
YES it makes so much sense, we need more horror games in norway. it is the most spookymaxxed place in the Nordics no doubt. being Swedish they're definitely the mysterious fairytale version of us cut off by a bunch of mountains and fjords, you love to see it. peak immersion, although my inner bastard will still have to point out that this 7:10 is a map of Greater London flipped sideways
I'm starting to understand that, especially as the "viking sword" is a Skyrim style blade, and the non viking sword is a typical of era blade..it's hilarious and is definitely getting the reaction from some of the people.
Hey librarian. I just want to say thank you for being my comfort UA-camr anytime that I want to relax I know that I can come to your channel and watch one of your videos. I've been having a bit of a rough life but anytime you upload that always brightens my day. Thank you.
11:52 running in games is either 1% faster than walking at a snails pace or this. theres never an inbetween where youre jogging at real life speed without your character hyperventilating like a fan man sprinting up stairs
This is definitely early alpha and yes that is the original UE4 bot character, this developer looks to be doing a good job, this is probably a first game. To those bitching about historical accuracy, I want to know how many viking shows you watched, chances sre half of them sre inaccurate, stop trying to find something to complain about just so you can pick on a small indie dev. God you people sre horrible I am so glad I barely read comments snymore.
I agree with the aggressive comments being too harsh on an excellent dev but the obvious fantasy weapons being labeled with cultures and the almost exactly accurate viking sword being called not viking feels like an elaborate troll for nerds like me (if it is a troll i love the dev)
Probably, the "viking sword" looks directly inspired by Skyrim, while the non viking swords are typical of the era, this could be intentional. Or more likely these are very early placeholder assets.
There are game asets that is real viking ,to get for game development. The "viking axe" from grensfors has been in games before. Some modern zombie game strangely enough... The fact that it's a indy dev do not excuse Laziness. Google (viking long house) Make game aset look like it... Google viking church norway : There is preserved 1000 ac Timber churches in Norway. (Stavkyrkor) There are preserved log houses from 1000 ac also. In sweden ( mostly in norway ) (Stabbur) Google the "(mestermyr shest) tools (A tool chest found on bog from 900 - 1000 ac ) The game doesn't get less good or immersive, if the details are correct. Imagen a soccer game where the asets and programing where totalty wrong a rugby ball instead of a, Football. Where the players run around with the ball in the Hands instead of kicking it . "Its indy dev it's ok" dont criticize--- its mean...! No it's not mean: the devs would benefit from getting the shit right in there game .
It's quite funny that the "typical Viking sword" looks much less like a historical Viking sword than the one labeled as "definitely not a Viking sword."_)
That sword was definitely not a" typical wiking sword" ,just saying... rather a" typical non realistic fantasy" sword . There is so much myth about Vikings like that they would wear horned helmets, and that they had huge swords and axes. The swords vere actually quite lite and not super long. The battle axes was not very big either. So the axe was also of the fantasy type. It would be good if the developers of games could use realistic tools asets and viking buildings instead of making stuff up , a traditional long house or a clay on wood frame house is mysterious enough to use in a game ,without making stuff up. Regarding the cristian age of the viking age the churches was made of timber ,there are very nice timber churches from 900- 1000 a-c preserved. in norway . Stone churches is mostly starting in 1200 ac in the nordic contrys. Clay brick was relatively late in the nordics middle age chu. is mostly field stone buildings. The game is very atmospheric doe.
Yup, that game got many interesting features with mic, in one playthrough when asking ghost if it's [Insert type of ghost here] and telling it one flicker for yes two for no, light flickered two times...
Love this game so far; absolutely beautiful with its' photorealism but I could do without the ambient noise/music in the background. If I'm in the forest I would much rather hear nature and surrounding sounds instead of a score. Otherwise the game is great. 😀 Hilarious 36:09, A boot/about. 😆😂
Teeny bit, yeah, and they didn't even do their homework. The "Viking sword" is a weirdly wide Danish sword from the 1400s to 1500s, and the "not a Viking sword" is a prototypical Viking sword. Elder Futhark was used into the Viking age, and the carvings on the stone are Younger Futhark! And that's just what I've noticed at a third of the way through, and was suspicious enough to look up, I'm sure I've missed plenty.
This is so...mmm for so many reasons. -To begin with almost everything (most of all, the small details) we *think* we know about what-they-believed-at-the-time "Norse mythology" is written by Christians, some a hundred years after Christianisation. - Modern interpretations somehow get treated as fact in common culture. So many factual claims in this game are ripped from modern new age interpretations (like how it talks about rune meanings), which are, frankly bs; or at least unknowable. - Following that, it's a pretty staggeringly elephant-in-the-room that this modern trend around creaming over anything Scandinavian is directly tied to, you know, the occultism and racial beliefs of those spicy 1930's Germans and their friends. Yes, really. It's pretty obvious when you look in any depth at any modern "communities" that are interested in "the Nordic" and have any understanding of the beliefs of said spicy Germans. - Furthermore, why are English speakers, hellbent on defining Scandinavia by things that happened at least one thousand years ago? A lot has happened in the past one thousand years, even in Scandinavia. - Why do English speakers need to hold their own links to "the Germanic" at arms length, while creaming over _das nordic ubersmensch, ja?_ I've unironically heard English speakers look at Angle-Saxon artefacts and think it's "viking" (whatever that means nowadays). That truly is...something. To speak to the runes again; ironically, a lot of those new age interpretations are built off the back of the Old English rune poem (the oldest rune poem), as later Scandinavian poems had lost a lot of earlier meanings that fit with the Elder futhark and reconstructed Proto-Germanic names. This game could even have been set in England and almost nothing would change tbf lol; which is likely barely fathomable to most of us.
Copy and pasting this until you try it! Day 32. Love from Uruguay. Do you think you could try out Abiotic Factor? It's an indie survival game on Steam that is heavily inspired by Half-Life and SCP, if you weren't the main character and instead one of the scientists trying to get out alive. It has some really good horror elements and is honestly the best survival game I ever played.

Bro it's a game it's not that deep.
I noticed that too but the game is still in early access

Its a good day when librarian drops
Omg he dropped!?!? Is he okay, how far did he drop? Hopefully not too far.
Pristine viking village with houses, furniture, swords: I sleep.
A bracelet: "Wow this must be worth a fortune!"
As a swede, this is pretty cool. Conk4668 approves.
I love you conk

The logo on the camera is the normal Polaroid logo for the Instamatic cameras, it looks kinda like a supercolor 1000
I know for a fact that the sword descriptions are an elaborate troll by the dev
I'm starting to understand that, especially as the "viking sword" is a Skyrim style blade, and the non viking sword is a typical of era blade..it's hilarious and is definitely getting the reaction from some of the people.
yeah, just like all the other fuckups

Please play "Northern Journey". It has the comfy and creepy vibe you're looking for.
YES i think hed love the game
11:52 running in games is either 1% faster than walking at a snails pace or this. theres never an inbetween where youre jogging at real life speed without your character hyperventilating like a fan man sprinting up stairs
Love these obscure folklore horror games.
Yeah, Lempo was my favorite.
You're a cool dude librar.
thats not a pride camera.. thats the polaroid logo...
Gae camera. XD I think even the old Instagram logo had it.

Google viking church norway :
There is preserved 1000 ac
Timber churches in Norway. (Stavkyrkor)
There are preserved log houses from 1000 ac also.
In sweden ( mostly in norway )

Google the "(mestermyr shest) tools

No it's not mean: the devs would benefit from getting the shit right in there game .
A couple of games you could make videos of are Unforgiving: The Northern Hymn, and Through The Woods. Both Norse.
i wish this guy was popular he's one if not my favorite youtuber
This looks so cool
Also I wish everyone being annoying about Voices of The Void a very “get a less entitled mentality” day
Fr, I like VotV as much as the next guy but come on 💀
Lesgo, at work for another hour, shall watch this when I get home
Yesss this will be perfect to listen to while cooking
It's quite funny that the "typical Viking sword" looks much less like a historical Viking sword than the one labeled as "definitely not a Viking sword."_)
As someone with Norwegian ancestry this makes me very happy 😆
This should set of some big warning sirens for folk; but that'll go under everyone's radar, don't worry
Love the content!
Today is my birthday I'm 15 now!
Today is a good day to watch the Librarian die hard 👊
I’m getting some serious Sherlock Holmes vibes
oh, my pookie wookie bear librarian. where do i start.
Shows promise, enjoyed what there was of it.

The game is very atmospheric doe.
This game reminds me of Kona. I think you'd really enjoy that game.
Have you played Phasmophobia? I think you would…like it…
Oh hohoho absolutely

He has played it
He played it and wasn’t a huge fan
(At least that was my impression)
@@meridiasbeacon7669 Mayby if he played that game again, he'll change his mind (VoTV example)...
A game I'd like to see you play is franbow I'd love to see how you react to things and theory craft

New intro less goooo
the intro is the same?
@@pamcakenjoyerI think he may have not watched in a long time (or idk)
As a swede - this feels really "americanized"....
As an American - this feels really 'nordicized'...
@@Falaxuper just what i thought

So? Does every fucking game need to be historically accurate or do you just need something to be mad about?
@@KaosDeathLord i need something to be mad about
You should play ender lilies: quietus of the knights
Bork bork bork bork bork bork bork!!
Ja
I'm Swedish 25% but it's my favorite part!@@Conk4668
This makes me think of the swedish chef 😂

You should play The Invincible.
