    Worm Girl's vid on the first game was recommended to me too often to ignore when I was watching some lore vids and grinding stuff. Fell down the rabbit hole so hard and can't get out, the games, world, lore, story and characters are all so fascinating.

    My very first experience with F&H: Termina was finding a hacksaw (purely by chance) in the train. I proceeded to cut off all my limbs save for my right arm (cause realistically you can saw the very arm you're sawing by yourself) and had to play the rest of the intro with no legs and just an arm. Thankfully, it was just a "dream" but still it was pretty cool.

    Thanks for the shout out! You might be interested to learn that I also got pulled into the series by a random UA-cam recommendation that sent me to a video about weird RPG maker games by Majuular. I was just scrolling through Dagoth Ur memes or something and bam: ua-cam.com/video/kHoCSK1ikfI/v-deo.html
    Something funny about your idea to offer up your own arm is that it sort of mirror's Daan's backstory. It's implied that when he tried to save Elise, he offered up his own eye (and whatever else he could spare) to Vitruvia to try to save his wife. He can even get a skill where he can sacrifice a limb to save a dying party member in battle. So even if the ritual circle thing didn't work out, it's really cool that it prompted you to think in a way that mirrors how things work in the lore.

    • @Pollymacho
      @Pollymacho  Рік тому +54

      Woah, this is pretty cool! Your videos are fantastic, and you deserve a lot of credit for your hard work! That's funny how the recommendation also got you into the series too (I gotta check out that video for some sweet new games).
      I didn't even think of that comparison between my actions and Daan's backstory, but that makes me appreciate that mistake way more.
      Thanks for checking this out, looking forward to your future videos! You honor the Sixth house and the tribe unmourned.

    Anyway, it's good to see more videos about Fear and Hunger recently (or maybe it's just the algorithm recommending me more of it), honestly I have only seen one other review of them, also yours is pretty good, I really like how immersive your reviews are, they have a vibe similar to a friend telling you the experience\s they have with media they're passionate about.

    In my first playthrough as Marina I butchered all the other contestants along with all bigger bosses I could find. Black orb, smog , blood golem and blood sword do wonders ❤️ I lost an arm the last day but I managed without it before getting an ending. I did raise som ghouls in the beginning to use as pawns, but in the end I offered them to Go-goroth and played solo until the end. Before I lost an arm I used gunshots on father Hugo among other enemies, so I did not have to fight them. Needles was killed in one shot with Black orb 👁️👄👁️ two shots of that on Woodsman too!

    Found this game with an All Bosses video and saw the strangeness of the enemies, then watched Zuldim's video on both games. Now I own both, finally beat F&H 1, and now enjoying Termina with every character (Side note, Marcoh and Abella are def my favorite for how versatile they are). This is what I think is the best indie horror to have come out in the last couple years

    I think the one complaint I have with Termina compared to F&H1 is that saving is harder to do. Sure you can get the contestant heads but I'm usually in the camp of always keeping as much people alive as possible. Yeah I do know about the doppelgangers and I am on a quest to find all of them. And of course there's the God of Fear and Hunger if you got the skin bible. Still lot of shit to find.
