I know we bugged you about this forever and it was probably exhausting to hear but THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PLAYING THIS GAME!
was going to like this post but the like was at 69 and I didnt want to break it
hit em with the mario
@@alphacode5 as soon as I typed it I thought of that tbh lmao
I literally just finished my own first play through of Signalis so thanks for taking so long so that I could watch this fresh!
My 2022 game of the year for sure, an amazing ride
This game has
"future Gentlemen's-Gaming-Club video but you just don't know it yet"
written all over it.
I hope Santel is watching
Santel is always watching over us
Jesse going "ara ara" is something I didn't know I needed, but now that he did that, I feel like a more complete person.
23:05 Thank you, for knowing at all. Robert Chambers was the name of the writer (its close enough to Browning). Technically it didn't get looped into the Cthulhu Mythos so much as... Robert Chambers predated H.P. Lovecraft. Lovecraft borrowed/took inspiration from Chambers, which is why some of Chambers' work ends up in the Mythos. And then Chambers borrowed/took inspiration from Ambrose Bierce, who predated him. Bierce was the pioneer of weird/cosmic horror in the west. So some of Bierce's stuff ends up in the Mythos as well, like the city of Carcosa (which both Chambers and Lovecraft later lifted, name and all).
So, the names for the types of REPLIKA are german names of birds. At time of writing this, I don't know if there's any special significance to these, but I'll update this list when I see new ones in the video.
Elster = Magpie
Eule = Owl
Star = Starling
Storch = Stork
Falke = Falcon
Adler = Eagle
Kolibri = Hummingbird
Ara = Macaw
SGS is TO THIS DAY is one of the few things i watch religiously. and i would do it ALL OVER AGAIN. 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you :)
Jesse: "SCHNELL"
Davis: "you've played a WWII game"
Jesse: "Yes"
That got me good 😂🤣
Viewers checking the comments, this is for future reference: Franz Schubert's composition "Ständchen" (Serenade) can be heard playing ever so quietly in the background around 1:32:20 when they first enter the radio station (getting noticeably louder by 1:33:30 ) and continues until the squad leaves that room.
Everything can be played as far as i know.
holy shit almost 3 hours of signalis with the SGS. the stars have aligned
And this is just part 1 too 😊
This is EXACTLY what my brain needs after going numb from the strain of staring at unfinished uni work all day. Perfect timing, boys!
Alex was referring specifically to Fire Emblem Awakening, where the characters don't have feet. It was not a stylistic choices, the devs weren't sure how detailed the character models could get on the 3DS hardware so they played it safe by just not giving any of the models feet. But, it turns out the 3DS could handle the models fine so starting with the next Fire Emblem game (Fates), they started giving all the models feet as well.
Also, feet are hard - Rob Liefeld
That, or they got an angry fan-letter from Kojima-san.
Actually, they did have feet! In both Awakenings and Fates for some reason the character models were too low so the feet were submerged into the ground in most scenes, but during attacks they were visible.
@@EvilDrCatfish They don't really clip through the ground, they do a little but nothing noteworthy is hidden from view. After you beat Awakenings you unlock a model viewer and can see for yourself that most of the models' legs are visible when they're standing still.
The character models do have feet in the sense that the bottom of their legs flare out a bit and have the texture of a shoe, so technically yes, they have feet. I was talking more about why the feet are so small and silly looking and why they don't have any joints separating the feet and legs.
To be fair, the end of the 3DS life cycle saw games that DID push the hardware too much. Pokemon Sun and Moon for example.
This is in my top 10 games of all time, I have not stopped thinking about this game since I beat it!
Love watching my favorite boys with 0 reading comprehension. It’s my favorite pastime
No way! I’ve been wanting this for so long. You’re the best, Jesse!
Them discussing how nice the aiming system is amuses me as it's effectively the same in the Resident Evil games and the squad largely ignores it in them, to the point where I'm not sure they are aware of it.
god I need a supercut of Alex doing Rowlf the Dog voice. i love it.
42:04 that was a pretty damn accurate DK noise
I have to thank all three of you personally for picking this game up for SGS. It means the world to me to see you covering one of my all time favourite horror games and I hope you all have a blast playing it. You're in for a hell of a ride.
ACHTUNG
Finished watching your SGS playthrough of Silent Hill 2 last night so it felt super relevant when you referenced it during this! Always so excited when new SGS comes out, the only UA-cam channel I religiously watch. My comfort place. Thanks guys :)
YES! FINALLY! I WAS EXPECTING THIS FOR SO LONG
Oh this game is perfect for the Squad.
This is the most excited I've been for a sgs since Silent Hill 2. Have fun guys this one is CRAZY
All the replicants seem to be named after birds, the ones i caught are:
Elster - magpie
Storch - stork
Eule - owl
Ara - macaw
Star - sterling
I love how like half this video is just referencing PBS. Zoom, Reading Rainbow, gotta love where the scary games squad minds go. 😂
wow almost 3 hours of Scary Game Squad!
I'm living for these hours long SGS episodes
Just so you know - the entire game is 3D. You just see it from a top down angle that fools people into thinking that it’s 2D pixel art. That’s how the lighting and everything looks so awesome. There also are first and third person mods that work incredibly well since all it needs to do is change the camera view
How I described this game was a bit of Silent Hill, Dead Space, Resident Evil, Prey, and System Shock all in wonderful harmony. I love it so much. I didn't even know it was a survival horror when I booted it up (not much of a horror gamer to begin with), so I was horrifyingly surprised.
Really like the puzzles in this. They do have a retro vibe, but also seem to leave clear hints nearby to make it less confusing than those older games. The only puzzle they didn’t solve in this play through I think they’ll get eventually. The gas, oxygen, carbon dioxide puzzle has ‘high/low’ lights on the left, which I’m guessing are a bit like the lock pick puzzle, helping you fine tune it like a price is right game.
OMFG THE PLAYTHROUGH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR
I am finally getting to this series. I'm excited to watch.
Jessie Lewis Cox, if you don't post episode 2,... I swear to GOD,... I'll only watch this first episode start to finish another 4 or so more times. You think about that.
I have now watched 2 hours and 45 minutes of lore videos and I am now back for my second... third? watching of these.
And I will not spoil anything, but I will have an eye out for all the details now that I am armed.
The note for the water puzzle was always there.
I am geniinely so happy y'all are playing this. By god you guys provided a little bit of light in my shitty day by playing my favorite horror game.... Also y'all are shooting so many bullets i don't expect you to survive.
YEAH! FINALLY! THANK YOU! HOLY S*IT! Love you Jesse.
Im so glad your playing this
SIGNALIS,
The star child between old school Metal Gear and old school Resident Evil, but was raised by old school Silent Hill.
GOTY of its year, no contest. My favorite part is all the theory crafting over who is a robot or not and that has nothing to do with the plot.
Oh man, so much SGS!!!! So HAAAAPPPYYYYYY!!!!!
oh damn. I was looking forward to this with you.
Interesting to see you guys play something somewhat German. Lots of birds btw. Eule is Owl, LSTR could be pronounced as Elster, magpie. Storch is a stork (well, that's an easy one). Star is a starling etc. Nice theme, congrats to the devs for this one so far
Edit: Thinking about it: Anything Jesse plays needs an Elster/Magpie reference. The number of times he goes "Ohhhhhhh, shiny!"...
Yay! Scary Game Squad is always a serotonin booster!! I love you guys!
4:08 "It's not a porno. It's NOT a porno."
Glad we clarified this, but still strange there was the need to.
39:17 "You're like a human Oreo" Turn me into a metal sandwich cookie, doc (there's a Live A Live throwback)! 🤖
Omg, for the past few weeks, I've been wondering if SGS would ever play Signalis, and seeing the thumbnail made me scream!! Looking forward to seeing how you guys will react to the story 😁
so many vibes, not just all the video games and movie stuff that they mentioned, but a bit of Evangelion in there too.
silent hill save red screen and jumping into random holes
Also love how the reading material acts as both lore and tutorial. And they are impossible to miss when picking up a new item. Retro feel but with modern quality of life improvements.
I had just assumed they had already played this game, so they just never recorded a game they already played. I'm surprised that none of them ever check this one out
Ah, sesbian Resident Deadspace.
Hell yeah Signalis.
This is gonna be awsome.
I felt like I should stand up and clap and I've only just got to the title screen.
Finally! Signalis simply cannot get too much love!
Also: In Settings you can increase the number of inventory slots to 8 (and have modules not take up space)... though I'm pretty sure you've already recorded the next number of videos. so this might be too late ; )
**ACHTUNG** Don't feel too bad about the Incinerator Room. I think it took me hours to figure that one out.
I got the incinerator pretty quick but the damn pumps took a literal halfhour…
@@DeltaEntropyHow could the pumps take you so long..? The paper right there beside it literally tells you step by step how to do it..
@@Eventide215 I solved the puzzle before I noticed the paper…
The best part about this upload is the part where it says Part 1
3 hours of SGS is a gift oh my king in yellow
33:09 okay, but the random references are the best. I am about the same age as the squad so I get a lot of them (like there was a reference to a compaq presario in a past video?? And i was like, ah yes, my first computer that could access the internet via dialup modem in 2001).
1:04:12 good character arc for Davis, from not believing grok was a real word to using it offhand in conversation
NOW I'm excited
1:48 I don't know, the NPC you voiced was pretty cool...
Love you guys
SGS is the best! Long live this amazing squad!
22:20 damn Space-DDR, would never have thought seeing that in a game
I’ve never clicked so fast *in all my life* 😆 Bless you Scary Game Squad for being so content generous lately - we are indeed very lucky to have you 🥰
Great seen the boys playing, Signalis is a very special game.
Really like the update were the eye camera does use an exclusive slot. It was just a pain to lose one slot to do something I could do outside of the game with my phone 😂
Now feels useful!
It wasn't just the camera, the flashlight and basically any 'attachment' to the body now doesn't use up inventory space. It makes sense to have it that way as well. I always hate when you have like a chest flashlight attachment on games and it uses up inventory.. it's attached to my chest.. why is it in my backpack/pockets?? As for using a phone, what's hilarious is how the guys keep taking pictures of notes even though the game gives you access to every single note you've ever seen right from the menu..
Yes! After playing Signalis for a bit and seeing how it's heavily inspired by Silent Hill and The King in Yellow, I stopped. Because I knew SGS was inevitable. I want to experience the story with the Squad first!
Believe me when I say this: It doesnt matter if you finish it yourself first or watch it, you will still leave with a bunch of questions and theories.
I'm so hyped for this
THE WAY MY HEART LEPT UP TO MY THROAT!! thank you so much for playing this, you will not regret it.
I'm going point out that this game carries on the long imsim tradition of having the first code be or contain 451 in reference to the book Fahrenheit 451 which connects to this game very heavily due to its use of censorship
IT'S HAPPENING. I've been waiting for this forever! AAAA.
Just literally beat the game tonight.. It's after effecting me.. I had to find all content to make sense of these feelings.
This is going to be one helluva trip. Lots of interesting references and inspirations in this game I hope the boys pick up on.
If they aren't too busy making jokes and theories instead of paying attention as usual... Oh who am I kidding it's why we watch them lmao
FINALLY!
I can never get over just how much Silent Hill 2 DNA was baked into Signalis. Absolutely fantastic game.
big hype for this
YESSSSSSSS THIS IS SO COOL
BEST TUESDAY EVER
Hell yes!
Idk if it felt like much of an issue to y'all, but the devs added an option to increase the inventory maximum. So if that ever feels like its getting in the way of enjoying the story, the option is there 👍
I'm so excited I've been hoping you guys would play this!!
I would soooooo LOVE to translate and pronounce all the German stuff for you guys. XD I played the game myself and was so happy that I literally could read everything without having to use the "on-screen texts" because everything's in German. XD But your pronounciations are adorable!
edit: I commented too soon! Alex's pronounciations are pretty good! kudos to him :D
I was literally just playing this. I hope you enjoy it :)
Holy shit! I gasped when I saw this. SGS is playing SIGNALIS! One of my all time favorite games!
34:31 I had the same reaction here where I thought my shadow was something omg
Here's hoping the next game will be sucker for love 2
And all of a sudden, it was a great day.
I'm still scarred from this game. Remember our promise.
SO excited for you guys to be playing this! I'm glad to see you guys really digging your teeth into it, and the speculation is really really great.
UA-cam compression does not love this game
I'm not really the type to leave comments or make suggestions, so just know that I make this recommendation in good faith: Y'all should really look into playing the game Blank Frame.
"I am the boltmaster, are you the nutkeeper?" - rick moranis
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
EDIT: Jesse is gonna love this
oh my gooooooooood it's HAPPENING
signalis is, imo, the best game ever made. im so so so glad yall are playing it
I love SGS!
finally!
One of my favorite youtubers playing a game by one of my favorite trans creators? Bliss!!!
"If this gets weird" LOL
Oh damn, I've been excited for this!!
I'M SO EXCITED
LETS GO
