I can't lie, being able to take a goose for a walk would help with my mental health tremendously.
Same tbh
Right
I actually know someone who walks their duck :) kinda the same
Too turnt Tony and his goose help my mental health tremendously
I agree. A goose or a duck as a pet to walk with would sound amazing! :3
The game: *shows Oliver and Elijah's life together as a couple, going on vacation, receiving awards, and having a child together*
Sean: "It's nice that they kept in touch!"
Giving they were very good friends historian energy
@@music-loverrrrr59 🤦♀️
What about the part where elijah layed on oliver like that I don't think friends do that
He was talking about the girl. She was the baby's nanny
@@nunpho oh okay
That scene when Elijah and Oliver are laying in bed and suddenly Tina pops up and Oliver protects Elijah from her all like "No this one is a good one" is probably a scene that will live rent free in my mind for as long as I live.
It's been living rent free in mine as well
Yesssss! Oh my heart!... such a powerful moment, with one little movement of his hand🥺 loved it so much!🥰💝
I Know ! I love it 🥺 so wholesome
Like no, this one has grown on me leave him be
@@ViktorErikFade 🥺🥺🥰 ive also thought about this game all day, after watching it late last night... loved it sooo much..
Saaaaame!! It was so cute!!
Ok, I actually love Séan's headcanon about Elijah being unpopular because he can't differentiate between his inside and outside voice, so he ends up saying his inner monologue out loud around the other therapy kids XD
Elijah is a guy?
@@7thtier336 Yup
I have a feeling that Elijah was intensely isolated, that in turn causing him to start speaking to himself and narrating the world around him. When that filter got removed, people got concerned. Anyways: Great explanation to why he was admitted too.
I'm absolutely loving the vibe of the pictures at the end with Elijah like " This is my husband Oliver, and this is his demon shadow creature of a sister, Tina, she lives in our attic , we feed her walnuts she's cool "
Sean: And they were roommates
Didn’t ask + ratio 🤓🫵
Babadook vibes
Hehehe lol why does this comment sound like a legit ending the game would have though that's funny and I like that
Didn’t ask
"It's nice that they kept in touch" Sean, buddy, I got something to tell you - that was more than keeping in touch
*spoilers* but for anyone confused, they got together at the end and had a kid /together/
They were roommates
@@nerdyfoxes8000 oh my gawd, they were roomates
@@knj99 To be fair it was kinda vague. I think if they’d showed like a wedding photo it would’ve made it much more solid
@@astrea4020 dont think it was legal to get married bruh this was before obama
Lol it's hysterical how Jack completely didn't notice they ended up a couple but had a lovely speech about the lgbt community at the end.
He did notice, that's why he said it 😆.
@@nunpho No. He said 'they stayed in touch' not a way to describe a married couple!
@@therhinosnake6938 he was talking about the babysitter, she's the girl that sang through the pipes. I misunderstood at first too 😂
He's a little confused but he's got the spirit 😂
Gross
I have never felt more grief for a fictional goose in my life. This whole story was beautiful in a haunting way
Ms Murphy...🥺💔
The second she was introduced, I knew I'd lose it if anything happened to her. I literally screamed "NOOO!" the same time as Jack.
What did Tina have against the goose? Or was that Aiden?
@@erinsilver3920 it was "Mother"
Knew the only reason that goose was here was to be killed later 😢
I love how in the scene were they’re in Oliver’s room, Tina’s all like:
“Do I need to cut a bitch? No? Just making sure.”
😂😂😂😂
on god i was dying she really was like “u good?”
Nah, it was more like "What's that touching your leg, is he gonna hurt you? Oh, it's his? oh.....okaayyyyyyyy."
Yes XD
@@madioakley5203 cat energy lol
Eric: “I swear, if he touches you again I’ll break every bone in his body and throw his corpse in the lake.”
Also Eric: *cries in the corner*
relatable
After setting him up in a fit of jealousy, no less.
Welp not everyone has murderous demon sister...or spine
Eric literally sold him out cuz he didn't get sum. I can't believe I thought Elijah and Eric was cute together
@@MoonchildDontCry sold elijah out to a SKINHEAD at that. two people with racist and all sorts of discriminatory ideologies. and was surprised that they would go as far as nearly killing him for *possibly* being queer. i refuse to believe that eric didnt know what would happen.
Elijah and Oliver have a child together
Jack - “Aw, it’s nice that they kept in touch”
I was crying 😂😭
LITERALLY
Wasn't he talking about the nanny? That's the impression I got
That’s disgusting
@@stopstalkingme2023 what is?
@@stopstalkingme2023 self hate isn't cute, girlypop.😘
i thought him threatening to gauge out elijah’s eyes then getting his eyes gauged out was a nice touch of irony
I didn’t piece that together- holy shit- 😭
Nice find
Didn't it mention that he attacked a African-American couple and the women lost an eye?
@@richellejohnson5593 you’re probably right but i could not agree or disagree as i don’t remember anything from this video 😭
19:51
Elijah and Oliver having a happy ending montage but with demon Tina lurking in the background of every photo is both really sweet and absolutely hilarious to me
Like, a cryptic guardian angel
@@sh_erkly9284 Guardian demon.
wait wait so is the "Mother" just a literal spirit of the forest and stuff and the dead caretaker thing was just coincidental?
wait nevermind
if you see in the last foto of baby tina the demon shodow form of tina isn't there anymore.
usually I'm terrified of the dark but knowing the shadow demons are against bigotry makes me feel a lot more comfortable
Bahahahaha. Thank you shadow demons.
shadow demons are the allies we didn't know we needed! And hey, maybe the real shadow demons were the friends we made along the way.
Even shadow demons ha e standards and morals apparently
Shadow creature apparently says
Gay rights
Demon said Lgbtqia+ Rights fr
That is oddly comforting
so thats who the “E ❤️ E” carved onto the bench was about. eric’s betrayal was the worst though, he could’ve just talked to elijah about it but instead went to the enemy 🙁
Someone else explained it best in a different let's play of the game. By that point in the story, Eric realized that Elijah wasn't interested in him. Every attempt to enter a relationship by the former was ignored by the latter. Talking about it won't do anything, because it won't change the friendship status between them. Thing is, Eric wasn't entitled to a relationship with Elijah, and punishing him for the rejection just made the kid a "nice guy" before the meme exists.
@@sxatcychan1988 ah i guess i didn’t really see it that way. I just thought that maybe they could’ve cleared up the misunderstandings between them, but yeah eric probably would’ve ended up doing something like this or worse eventually. thanks for telling me though!
Ikr wtf
The old 'if I can't have him, then no one can' mindset😂🥲
I feel that. bro I went from thinking no one liked me like that to suddenly realizing after I got into a relationship "wtf why is everyone fighting over me, I'M JUST A PILE OF BONES MAN" and had some people do some fucked shit that I just don't understand the logic of.
1:15:12 I love how you can totally still see Tina being protective to her younger brother. She's making sure he's safe and leaves when he tells her it's alright. We love wholesome shadow demons ♡
Lol never thought wholesome shadow demons would be a thing
@@juva338 what does that mean
@@juva338 but what is a sib
@@Imauser88 sib is short for siblings
To think way back when
She was mean af to him
I really like how Tina wasn't just a killer who followed Oliver around, she did her "job" protecting her brother and then when he showed her Elijah was someone he cared about she decided she was going to be just as protective over him. It's kind of sweet she had sort of already accepted him into the family 😂
every S.O.'s worst nightmare: an older sibling giving you 'the talk' on not to hurt their little brudder or syster O_o
Tina: I just want to talk to him
Oliver: No, please
Tina: No no, I just want to talk to Aiden, I just want to _talk_ to him.
Oliver: Oh god
👶👶
Yeah, she's like how dare you hurt my pretty much already married in other brother ! >:U
Found it interesting she did to the bully what he threatened to do to Elijah if he didn't sit in the chair
Because before then eyes being stabbed was a threat .
I particularly like her warning oliver like "IF YOU DONT COME AND SAVE HIM IM GONNA KILL THEM"
Sean saying they "kept in touch" gives off big historians said they were roommates vibes
That's what I said💀
Oh magod, they were roommates 😂
bestest of friends
Fr 😔
He just didn't connect the dots yet lol
aiden’s reason for being in a mental health facility:
Intense and unreasonable homophobia
Don't forget being a huge racist, he did beat up that African American couple for no good reason.
He quickly became homophobic, hating gay people became a part of his lifestyle! (sorry, I had to)
I’m homophobic and transphobic you gonna cancel me?
@@RetroRunner2099 ok?
@@RetroRunner2099 you want brownie points for being a stupidly narrow minded human being? Cool, have fun being obsessed over how other people live lives that have absolutely no effect on yours.
Sean saying “its really god that they kept in touch” has the same energy as “historians will say that they were really good friends”
i love sean’s obliviousness😭😭
He was talking about the singing girl
@@nischal711 No because he asked if the baby was Oliver's or Elijah's. I'm not sure he got it. 😂
Jack: "It's nice they kept in touch"
Storyboard: *literally showing Elijah and Oliver having a life together and having a kid*
I'm wondering if he's going to figure it out.
I literally went "They got married, ya dingus!" lmao was it not obvious by Oliver asking about Elijah and Grace at the end?? come on Sean
i was just about to comment this!! LMAO
He like when the historians go "and they were roommates, the bestest friends"
@@stoneycooper9758 Just two guys, sitting in a hot tub, five feet apart...
I can't believe Jack just played through a beautiful and not at all subtle love story and ended it with "it's nice that they kept in touch" like dude
also feeling particularly safe in this community after watching the ending pep talk :) it's really sweet and reassuring
I also also so confused by his ending remark about them keeping in touch 😂 lol I was pretty sure it looked like they were together w/ the child in the photo
they had a kid too 😭
@kailariddle6610 Yeah I think it went completely over his head somehow 🤣🤣
History says they’re the bestest of friends.
I like how Aiden didn't listen to Elijah saying "No, please", yet he said the same thing when Tina came to protect our boy, and expected her to listen to him, when he didn't listen to Elijah while committing a hate crime. Hmm, weird that he asked for respect when he wasn't giving respect to others.
this is literally every bigot in a nutshell
1:14:53 THAT WARMED MY HEART SO MUCH MY EYES TEARED UP-
tina being in every photos through out oliver's life was so adorable i love it
Here I was hoping they'd both make it out of the story alive, and they did, but I'm not entirely sure shadow demon Tina is what I had in mind lmao. The ending of the first game hurt, but this is like ripping the bandaid off. The creature is "what's left of Tina?" like they went through so much, is she even really in there lmao
this series has given me so much anxiety for fictional characters its insane
I KNOWWW AFGSJDKSK I WANT THAT
Tina repeatedly vibe checking Elijah, even while he and Oliver were cuddling, is Peak big sister behavior, honestly XD
*Tina* : Vibe check! >:)
*Oliver* : Tina...Tina pls. I like this one. Don't mess this up for me I stg >:(
I can't not see it as that now like this powerful demonic entity just popping up like "your vibe is off"
*WHEEZING*
I just love Tina vibe checking Elijah like "you better not hurt my little brother I'll f u up" and then coming to his rescue in the bathroom. And that she was able to always be there with Elijah and Oliver in their new lives. Surprisingly wholesome. (also RIP Ms. Murphy, she was the best goose).
And Joe, who was so close to retirement 🤧
@@nightmareblade34 Yea, I thought Joe would have had a more sinister thing going on for him to have gotten offed like that, like he was molesting the kids or something, but the dude was just a decent man doing his job. Poor dude. At least it wasn't Tina who killed him, turns out the tree was the "Mother."
Elijah and Oliver:has beautiful romance
Sean:and they were roommates
You know…. Like in a “historical way”😉
I genuinely don't understand why those bullies are allowed to interact with others. A mental health facility where those who prey on other people's mental health are allowed to wander around with everyone... totally makes sense...
Unfortunately, it's a fairly accurate depiction of real mental hospitals. The only time staff would step in is if someone was actively beating someone up or even simply giving a new friend a hug as they leave.
They would also step in if you were trying to explain your gender identity, pronouns, and sexual/romantic orientation. But someone going into graphic detail about s3x in front of SA survivors or victim blaming others? Nah, that's totally fine in the eyes of the staff!
Because that’s how it is in some mental health facilities
The patients get exploited 😢
Think this is set in the mid 80s/early 90s and mental health wasn't as understood or cared for then as much as it now
Yeah, hatred and bigotry are not mental health disorders. They are choices made by people, often ones with brains free of such issues, which makes it so much more vile.
Because his dad owns the place I think
Proud of Oliver for coming out of the woods and the closet in one game!
😂
You mean he HAD A NIGHT IN THE WOODS ! Wait dead bodies. Evil cult mother nature thingy..ITS ALL COMING TOGETHER!
💀💀💀💀 its all coming out now
gay rights
😭😭😭
Sean: "It's nice they kept in touch"
Also Sean, probably: "Oh my god... they were roommates."
Balls-deep in touch, specifically 😂
@@LHyoutube DUDE 😂😂
Elijah and Oliver lived happily ever after with wild ghost Tina as their bodyguard. Elijah and their daughter casually seeing the shadows around and not worried in the slightest cause its just Aunt Tina being a goof ball.😭💚
I like how Tina was progressively not scary as the game went on, especially having the slideshow of the future with her in the background is really funny
Oliver: this is my best friend and sister Tina, and she's an ally, talk Tina!
Tina: Ally!~ * brutally murders bigots*
I literally said that out loud during that scene lmao
we stan tina
more allies should take inspiration from Tina 🏳️🌈 (this is a JOKE for legal purposes)
@@finpin2622 i agree wholeheartedly (i am also joking for legal reasons murder is against the law and i am definitely an upstanding member of society)
@@ladylark10884 be gay, do crime (for legals reasons this is a joke)
Sean’s running joke about Elijah speaking out loud had me weak 😭 “ELIJAH, MY SISTERS FINE!”
made me wheeze😆 that bit was so good!
@@yeamanrocks You are most definitely a bot aswell as your statement is a lie.
"Michael didn't realize I didn't give a sh!t."
That was the best part! 😂
Is Elijah meant to be a guy, or a girl, like, mfs hairs long, but guys can have long hair at the same time.
What a coward Eric was, he knew every bit of pain those dirtbags put Elijah through, that they were willing to actually hurt innocent lives with the goose, and even said he would fight for Elijah…. All to throw all of that to the wind in a fit of jealously. That coupled with the actual torture really hit differently for me as a bi person.
But honestly, knowing that Elijah and Oliver got a happy ending, and how in that one scene where he cuddles with Elijah and let’s Tina know that Elijah is good, made this so beautiful in a way
I once had someone out of the blue look me in the eye and say "people like you don't deserve to live" while I was just going about my day at school. It's unfortunate how realistic those bullies are. Brilliant story though, I really enjoyed watching this, even if I could totally relate to the way Elijah was treated.
I support you bro, Im here for you. People like that suck so hard but just know that in the end you always win and they always lose. Stay strong bro, we're here for you.
:( I'm so sorry. You should have been protected from them
Everyone deserves to live their life the way they feel best, no one deserves that bs, I had someone threaten to kill me over untrue accusations, on a different level I feel your pain, stay strong
"It's nice that they kept in touch"
*SAPPHO AND HER FRIEND INTENSIFIES*
wonder how long it'll take before someone puts that moment on there
Achilles and his Pal
"They were just very good friends..."
@@ramirezthesilvite to be fair to the greeks they laid with anything that could move.
i was literally scream laughing when he said that
I know its weird- but I thought it was really adorable and nice that Tina was still with Oliver- watching him grow up... even though she's a shadow demon lol...
Love that Elijah and Oliver had a life together.
Yeah, glad Tina doesn't go rampage anymore and let her brother manage his life by himself
yeah, it's nice they kept in touch
That's being siblings for you. You grow up, you grow apart, you turn into a shadow demon monster, but ultimately your sibling is still your sibling.
@@foo219 poetic
I think the foreshadowing of the mother lion protecting its young really smart because it seems like a harmless detail, but it tells exactly how the events were happening.
Omg this part 25:29 where Elijah found that chocolate bar, that's a really cool easter egg from the previous game where little Oliver found the same bar in the woods!!
Elijah probably showers at night so the other boys don't accuse him of gawking at them. 💔
"probably" nah, he definitely showed at night for that reason
And also to avoid being assaulted 💔
Not to mention the fact that if he had a panic attack around the bully characters they'd bully tf out of him for it
washing off the pain that he has to deal with in that place.
It sucks people have to go through this irl
Tina literally SLAYED.
LITERALLY SLAYED.
ONG LITERALLY SLAYED
LITERALLY FUCKING SLAYED
Tina is a perfect reflection of most older siblings. We can be bullies sometimes and be pretty junky...but when anything comes up we're gonna protect our younger siblings at all cost. It is only a fictional character...but if anyone would dare and hurt any of my siblings, that's how my soul would look like. No mercy for the ones who did the harm.
“It’s nice that they kept in touch”
Elijah & Oliver: literally husbands
So Elijah and Oliver got married and adopted a child named it after Tina and they had Grace as the nanny. How cute.
They could have had a surrogate,
@@FuriosasWarRig - Or possibly even had Grace volunteer as the egg donor and 'surrogate'.
Yeah, they "kept in touch"
Not quite as nice when you consider the circumstances of Oliver's life. Two nanny's dead, one of whom was brutally murdered, Tina his sister tranformed into a near demonic entity with extreme over protectiveness. Almost feels like hes setting up the cycle to repeat itself.
"oliver had a baby. or is it elijahs?" sean i have great news for you
lmaooooo
Tina is the LGBT+ ally we deserve
Also loved that they used the pictures at the end to show Elijah and Oliver being a couple, going on vacation, Elijah actually writing a horror novel based on what happened, adopting a child together (and that they named her Tina), Tina watching over them in the shadows, all very wholesome for the ending.
I like how Oli and Elijah adopted a kid and named it after Oli’s sister, I think it’s really sweet even though Tina’s already there lol it might become a little confusing but I’m glad she’s still there to protect Mini T and *possibly* other generations to come.
historians being like "they were close friends, almost like roommates" 🤝 jack being like "it's nice they kept in touch"
I can smell that they're together
Aww. Sean's adorable ignorance aside that this was a creepy ass horror love story of Oliver and Elijah finding their happiness, that was a wonderful message to add to the end. This community has always been a safe space, and I love it.
They deserved to be eradicated.
1:29:37 a good ol’ fashioned “uncle Elijah and his longtime roommate Oliver” moment.
That was such a pure moment 😂😂😂
As a cystic fibrosis patient, it feels amazing to have representation in a cool fricken game💘
Same! I was like "I get you Thomas
i was really glad to see he was fine ❤️
I think it's bittersweet how Tina, despite the previous game was a bit mean to Oliver, in the end, she was still his big sister and protected him, becoming even a shadow monster that keeps lurking in the shadows for him
As a big sis that's all in a hard days work
The scratched out “E
dammit eric, i was rooting for you :'3
That makes sense! And that’s why Eric got all defensive and mean when Oliver showed up. I would’ve supported Eric and Elijah as a couple if only Eric wasn’t so mean and judgemental towards Oliver
Edit: wow Eric turned out to be a petty asshole
@@benjaminramsey498 I think Eric was just hurt and lashed out. That doesn't make what he did okay, he still should've known that he was putting Elijah in danger, but Eric doesn't seem to be a hateful person at his core. The lack of resolution with Eric is really my only complaint about this game
@@jakethejake1772 i mean the resolution was basically "dont tell anyone what you saw and we are no longer friends". Cuz Eric rather spectacularly burned that particular bridge to the ground in a fit of jealousy about Oliver.
@@gothicbutterfly013 No yeah ik, and I'm not saying Elijah should've stayed friends, but I wish there was more than just that. Still a phenomenal game dont get me wrong
I liked how at the end you saw Oliver finding his happiness. Even in his 20th birthday photo you can see he is smiling and looking at the camera, instead of frowning and looking away. In terms of game I liked the previous games better as experiences but I am glad that this one had a happy ending.
The betrayal of Eric really got me in this game partially because it's something that could happen to us and have to deal with in our daily lives, I also hate the lack of closure we get about it, fucking great game, fucking great video 10/10
~SPOILERS~
Ok, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong because its been a while and i may be filling in some gaps on my own, but if I'm remembering things correctly from the last game it is at least heavily implied that Tina and Oliver's dad had cheated on his wife (Tina's mother) with their nanny at the time, who then later gave birth to Oliver.
I _think_ it is somewhat implied that Oliver's dad may have killed the Nanny (perhaps she was going to confess?) and that at some point Oliver was adopted, unbeknownst to Oliver. Perhaps the Nanny was burried in the forest behind their house and her vengeful spirit eventually became the heart of the forest.
That would explain why "mother" in this game refers to herself as such to Oliver because she is actually Oliver's mother and why she has such a strong connection to him and tries to get back to him. It would also kind of explain why she would be willing to go to the lengths of killing Tina (not her biological daughter) in order to keep her son there with her.
Again don't know how much is confirmed and how much is just theory, but after watching this sequel, it makes me more inclined to believe it all.
I wasn't sure about the adoption. But the rest mostly liines up with my thoughts on it from what I could remember.
@@Valhain If a man cheats on his wife and has a baby with another woman, he won’t be able to convince his wife that it’s their kid, right 😅 So, Oliver must’ve been adopted.
Just watched them back to back and it was pretty apparent that the original "monster" was their first nanny, you could even see the eye patch. Don't think Sean caught it. I didn't understand how it all connected but I think you nailed it. Oliver's dad even had the picture of her in the lockbox. Would still like to know how the original nanny/Oliver's probable mom became a weird nature demon, but it all kinda makes more sense now. Especially with how Oliver referred to her as "Mother" and Tina referred to her as "nanny"
Tina also called her nanny only
only thing is that i think they found the nanny’s body in the house thomas lived in. i remember that that was the nanny’s house before thomas and his parents moved in and i think it was tina or oliver that told thomas there was an ambulance at the nanny’s house so maybe they found her body there. it still doesnt explain how she was connected to the forest
Somehow I find it so funny that they literally show them spending the rest of their life together and having a kid and everything, and Jack‘s just like „it’s nice they kept in touch“
Best Friend goals 🌈
Hes probably like me in the aspect of not realizing it was ellijah. I wasnt sure who was with oliver in the last part there. Still a nice story and game
@@waynebrown8527 - Yes, I too didn't immediately realise it was him.
Tina really got the short end of the stick huh? Living for eternity as a almost mindless monster with only one purpose but still with enough conscience to be self aware of what she has become
Who said "eternity"?
I mean Sean's not completely wrong .. they did stay in touch .. then became a couple .. adopted a kid together. The last two definitely needed the first part in order to happen lol. 😆
Robin giving herself that little shoutout in the corner was adorable, ngl. She deserves SO much credit for her editing, and I love how much of her personality comes out in her commentary and cuts.
Where???
@@wrenchworms3381 1:30:03 when Sean says "trans" there's a lil editors note in the top left from Robin
Aww, good for her
@@emlynselene1096 OH POG
Wait. Isn't Robin a dude?
It's genuinely uncanny to me how much Elijah reminds me of myself. From his orientation, to his hairstyle, to his more solitary nature, to his habit of idly thinking up stories inspired by the world around him... hell, even his history of panic attacks, his victimization by homophobic scumbags, and his experience of encountering a shadow-creature while staying at a psychiatric facility. (Yes, _really.)_
One note about the Fernwood Center, by the way, because I suspect it's something that might be confusing to people: the complex isn't actually a psychiatric hospital, but is instead supposed to be more of a nature therapy-focused rehabilitation center akin to a tuberculosis sanitorium -- in fact, a lot of old TB wards around the US ended up being converted into such low-security clinics after their closure. On paper, they're supposed to be places where people can go to recover in peace and quiet; in practice, though, they're places where you get sent when the people in your life don't want to deal with you and your problems, but you aren't messed up badly enough to warrant a stay in a facility with padded cells and doors that lock from the outside. (Frankly, it's the _last_ place a patient with Aiden's violent record should've been sent -- from the dialogue, I get the feeling the only reason he avoided being sent someplace with a high-risk wing is thanks to his affluent family's donations to the Center.)
Ya I was very confused with the whole hospital part, the fact that they let you go outside and go shower/bathroom alone, ya would never happen. Not at any psychiatrist hospital I've stayed at. Especially the dorm doors being closed and lamps? Forget it.
Thanks for clearing it up lol
So what would places like those actually be called? Rehabilitation centers?
@@CDexie I think the term 'mental health center' was the more popular phrase during the '90s when I was sent to one, so the game's accurate in that respect -- but yes, it would've been as accurate to call them rehabilitation centers, since rehabilitating 'troubled' youth was part of the mission statement. (And if you weren't 'troubled' when you checked _in,_ you'd probably have some serious baggage by the time you checked _out,_ I'd say.)
Of course, rehabilitation was _also_ the theoretical point of a _penitentiary,_ so that gives you some idea of how patients at these places were viewed by the staff. The stigma against mental and emotional health issues was _very_ prominent even in the late '90s, even among the so-called professionals running the show in these sorts of places -- and as Eric's snide dismissal of Oliver's trauma as being worthy of an axe-murderer illustrates, even the patients tended to have little sympathy or understanding for one another, when you'd think they'd know better than anyone how rough it can be.
Awh, Elijah and Oliver just lying in the bed together was cute. I dig the more realistic little scenes.
1:29:36 “It’s nice that they kept in touch” absolutely killed me 😂😂😂 Jack, I gotta break it to you that’s their kid 😂
I know he’s going to figure it out and just facepalm hard, but that “Kept in touch” 😂
Even with that blip, his message of inclusivity and welcome in this community was really heartwarming… err, in a horror game…
Oh there's probably a massive print of his own palm across his face after all the comments lmao
LMAOOO IKKK HES SO OBLIVIOUS RIGHT BEFORE HAVING HIS WHOLE TALK ABOUT TJE GAYS I CANT WITH HIM
SEAN:AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES
OLIVER AND ELIJAH ACTUALLY GOT TOGETHER AND NAMED THEIR KID AFTER OLIVERS SISTER IM CRYING I LOVE THIS. Also love how shadow Tina was just chilling with the both of them😭 just me my husband and my shadow creature sister chilling 🤪

@@letthechickenstakeoverfous5889maybe don’t look in the comments while watching the video??
@@jnoelleart it’s not like it’s wrong, there are spoilers regardless of when you see it
Sean going on a tangent from the game and talking about how he wants his community to be a safe space is adorable. I'm sure it's going to help a lot of people to hear that, definitely makes me feel better about myself
Elijah and Oliver ending up together feels like that song that goes "It's finally me and you, and you and me, just us, and your friend Steve", but instead of Steve it's Shadow Demon Tina!
Elijah and Oliver got together and Grace became their nanny. Happy ending to a point.
And they named their kid Tina! It's such a beautiful ending
Feel like they’re setting Grace up to die somehow…
the pixel art in this game is goddamn flawless, and as an aspiring writer with an anxiety disorder, I really identified with Elijah as a main character! Great indie find! I love these types of long-form indie playthoughs.
You should check out the other games from the series, midnight scenes has other 3 shorter stories under its belt
@@olakpasa6486I have already played the other two and I was totally in love with them (also being a twilight zone fan) but this one might be my favorite so far; the pixel art has really developed in style and aesthetic over time!
For Sean’s his speech at the end about this being a safe space for LGBTQIA+ community- I’m not openly out and in a disheartening situation. Hearing creators like Sean be supportive is a comfort in the scheme of my own journey. I’m still figuring things out but I can’t thank him and Gabs enough for being a distraction and kind souls.
Sean does tend to get lost in gameplay but him missing that Oli and Elijah being a couple is honestly understandable in the midst of that story.
Seeing them have a happy life and relationship together after all the trama and pain they went through made me so happy. traveling the world, getting an award, starting their family actually brought me to tears! i cant believe im this haooy for a finctional couple.
I’m an aromantic asexual, which often means being excluded from LGBT communities due to my lack of attraction and straight communities for the same reason. It can be very isolating, like there’s no where for me to go. I’ve felt so broken at times. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you Seán for providing a space for me and anyone else who has felt isolated to feel safe.
I feel your pain. I’m biseuxal and I recently saw an entire thread of being hating of those who are bi and people call us disgusting or that we can’t date anyone because they’re assume we’ll cheat. It’s really hurtful and i’m glad jack sees us and makes us and our entire existence feel valid
as a conservative. that's the problem with lgbt they are just as closeminded and ignorant as homophobic people. just be who you are you don't have to label yourself and put people in groups. no one should give a fuck what you do as long as it not being pushed and forced on others
I didn't expect to find another ace here. Hello! I've experienced discrimination too, even from within the wider community. I feel that isolation too. We can feel it together :P
Happy (almost) Aromantic Awareness week! 💚 A fellow Aro/Ace person.
We are here! Hello fellow ace people! I can’t even answer for myself how to stave off the loneliness, but it’s good to know ur not alone :)
It’s so sweet that Elijah and Oliver had a baby and named her Tina and maybe the girl was their surrogate or just a nanny/ god mom it was so cute
Grace was Elijah's friend from the all girl's center next door
@@MadisonChesney yeah I know she is I’m just saying that it’s sweet of her to become the god mom or surrogate to them if that is what happened
@@ashleyann8379 totally agree lol
Thank you so much for your kindness and willingness to be properly welcoming, and not just skirting the topic and explicitly stated what you did. To give some perspective, you're basically the only UA-cam person I've seen/heard say what you did, and it made my entire week to be made to feel properly welcome. You're a treasure, jackaboi 💜
"Glad they kept in touch" should be the new "oh my god they were roommates"
I literally cried at the end when Sean talked about being supportive of the LGBTQIA+, I've watched him for years and hearing someone who's been in your life for that long tell you that you are supported and safe around them is very meaningful to a lot of people and me. Thank you Sean for the wonderful things you have put into our lives through your videos
there’s a compilation called something along the lines of “jack being an ally for 5 minutes straight” that i watch when i’m feeling shitty, it really helps :) honestly there’s probably way more than 5 mins that could be used for a compilation but it’s a nice video all the same
Even though I already knew I’m sitting here smiling because having someone, especially a person with a lot of influence/reach, explicitly state that this is a safe space where you are accepted really means a lot. I’m lucky to have the people around me being supportive but so many don’t and I can imagine that hearing this must mean so much when you might not be able to be yourself or maybe even admit to yourself that you are part of the lgbtq+ community due to fear and unaccepting people.
1:29:34 Jack saying Elijah and Oliver "kept in touch" is more proof the man is a real life cartoon character, we're gonna start hearing him make IRL Looney Tunes noises soon
Absolutely crazy how much Midnight Scenes has improved since the first 3 episodes, those were already super well-done, but this one's phenomenal, shoutouts to girlboss Tina for bringing one of the most cathartic moments at 1:24:48
Nice first time seeing you here
This was such a great game. I know seeing that type of real-life horror in video games is a hot button issue but it really does prove that humans are the real monster all along.
Also the "Not This One" vibes from Oliver to Tina is such a top tier trope in any media, the fact that she was even cognizant enough to recognize that and be a part of their lives from beyond the grave... excellent writing ♥️
i know i’m a bit late to this video but at the end when he started telling about how this community is a safe place, it makes me happy. i watch your videos occasionally, and i know that there’s no chances that sean will see this comment, but if you do see this:
Thank you. The fact that one of my favorite youtubers since childhood is there for his viewers, especially the LGBTQ+ community makes me very happy. It gives me hope for this generation of youtubers. I’ve been questioning my gender a lot lately, I’m unsure if i’m genderfluid, demiboy, just a girl, or what. I don’t know, and i hope i’ll figure what i am soon, but these things take time. Sean being there for his viewers definitely made me cry. Again, i’m aware that this comment will probably get no attention whatsoever but if it does, I hope that if there’s anyone going through these kinds of things, i hope you find what you are sooner or later. I know when you’re trying to figure out what you are is a difficult time, knowing that you just want to be content and move on with your life but you cannot help but dwell on such a simple thing to you, it’s difficult. I wish the absolute best to anyone and everyone in this community. 🫶🫶
Not gonna lie, Jack talking at the end made me tear up. I’m trans and I’m American so stuff is kinda hitting the fan here. Jack has always been my safe space and I’m so grateful to him because his videos helped me through the hardest times of my life. It was just something I needed to hear today
It's nobody's place to judge you. Even a true Christian is told to love thy neighbor. But all there is, is hate.
@@evanmisejka4062 "true christians" have been committing far worse than judging to lgbt folx all throughout history. It's EXTREMELY disrespectful to bring that shit religion up for every life unjustly taken under the churches will.
Sorry, but not everyone is like that kid in the game..many just want to live their life without someone flaunting their sexuality like it's a badge of honor. That is the real issue for me at least.
Be whatever. I would never ask or even care to know unless I had interest in you. If I didn't have any interest in you, then I would not have interest in knowing your sexuality.
Another issue is handling these discussions in schools to children too young to even understand these concepts. Is there infiltration in school, absolutely. Which is why parents push against it.
Let's not forget confusing trans individuals as having the same sexual interest as their created persona. Becoming a trans woman doesn't mean the individual no longer desires natural women. Which creates many problems, again in school and sports.
It doesn't help either when activists claim words are murder, discussion is murder, and questions are murder. Making people like you seem so pathetic that you need special care in any form of debate or discussion. Making the groups seem so weak doesn't help the cause. Instead of displaying conviction of choice, responsibility. Handling of negativity.
But again, how that kid acted is the very worse of humanity. They exist, but represent even less of the population than any alphabet group.
Of course, my even stating this much could paint me as a bad person. That's just the reality of things.
You can’t change your gender cry me a river and don’t try to make people support you because I won’t
all of us trans americans need to have each other's backs and hold hands through the weird things happening. it might not be safe in lots of places, but there are some spaces that will always support us. i hope you can find comfort in your safe places and just know you're not alone!
Today's fact: People can suffer from a psychological disorder called Boanthropy that makes them believe that they are a cow. They try to live their life as a cow.
Mr Cow FeelsStrongMan

I have humthropy I always act like a human
Is there a version of this for all popular animals or cows specifically? Definitely gonna research this.
When humans dont face problems and live comfortably they will make up their own problems
The scene of Oliver keeping Tina from killing his at the time best friend (can't spell his name) while the cutest platonic cuddle scene happens is now my favorite thing in this game series
I don't think that cuddle was particularly platonic, given the ending, haha
Well, I believe it did start out platonic. 😂 That’s how a lot of people in relationships start off honestly. First as friends with platonic affection (that they’re not insecure about showing) which then can lead into romance. Especially at that point in the timeline, I think they were just starting to feel like friends. After all, Oliver had yet to disclose his sexual preferences so It’s not like Elija knew if Oliver would even be attracted to other men. 😂
ngl the scene when Oliver and Elijah are laying together and Tina shows up abt to attack Elijah but Oliver shoos her away just gives the energy of Protective Older Sister Wary Of Brother's New Boyfriend. like she shows up like "who is he?? is he hurting you??" and Oliver's like "no sis i love him" and she's like "hmm ok but if he breaks ur heart i swear-"
As someone whos been put in mental health facilities multiple times, as well as dealing with bullying my whole life for how I look, or being transgender and queer (it still hasn’t stopped after 16 years), this hit close to home and was hard to watch at times. I’m grateful to see stories that show real world problems like this. Thank you Sean for your kind words, you make me feel safe even when all others in my life can’t except who I am. Hearing your words makes me hope that in the future I can be happy as my own being and not be scared to be in public, and having to always look over my shoulder and pretend I can’t hear the things people say. Or having to hold back tears when things are thrown at me like I’m some animal. To anyone who might not have a safe space or someone to talk to, I’m here and I except you and support you. Everyone should be treated equal, who you are isn’t wrong.
Its okay bro, I support you. I always will.
True facts
Also Seán is badass
Seán is the cutest oblivious ally I have ever seen
Admittedly going into a commitment with a romantic partner is pretty much just trying to keep in touch with a person for what is ideally a lifetime.
What a great game and a terrific playthrough. Very much the best end for Oliver after what happened to him and Tina in the woods. RIP Miss Murphy and kudos to Elijah for supposedly growing out of his habit of talking smack about people's heads or family members exploding. Maybe now he can sit with other people over a meal.
Jack really did a “they are such good friends” with Elijah & Oliver 😂
I already knew that Jack was supportive of us, but hearing it so clearly is really touching. It's also to late at night for me to be crying.
I can't help but laugh at 27:00 when he calls Oliver a weirdo while walking a goose on a leash.
I legit cried during the speech at the end. As a British trans person who is constantly bullied in school (not to this extent however), and one who has been watching Jacks content for years, this resonated so strongly with me. I've been in a bit of a low place for a while and this just made me feel so much more positive about myself. Words cannot express how much I love Jack and his content (also is it just me or is he super fjking cute ufyieuasgiushiuyaeliui). Keep it up!
I absolutely loved the story even though it wasnt all horror. Also it was really sweet what you said at the end. I am actually bisexual.
(What im about to say now is part of my personal life)
When i came "out of the closet" to my dad he was furious of me and hated me, and he already hated me enough bc of my mom. He disowned me. I also had feelings for a friend of mine me and her have been friends for years. I told her how i felt. She was homophobic and religious (in a bad way) she called me the devil, said i was 'possesed', 'corrupted' and 'worked for him' etc. After she blocked me. So what you said at the end about how people in the lgbtq do matter, how everyone matter, and how this is a safe place makes me happy and even made me tear up a bit thank you Jack. It also helped that i look up to you and want to be a youtuber to make people laugh and entertain people like you do.❤
I know every lgbtq+ member in the chat got anxious when Aiden & his crew pulled up to Elijah alone at 1:18:00
I felt like crying cuz I've had death threats before so it hit but great game frfr
I would say 90% of everyone watching got anxious when that happened, straight or otherwise.
they should of won
I was ready to go full angry dyke on them lmao
Yeah no, the game showed my worst nightmare what with the premise of a friend outing the main character leading to literal hate crimes.
I just started watching your channel recently, and I'm really happy about your little speech at the end about your channel being a safe space. The LGBTQIA+ community REALLY needs those spaces right now, especially the trans community, with all of the anti-trans bills being introduced and passed in the US (anti-drag and anti-LGBTQIA+ as well, but they're really attacking the trans community right now).
I'm pansexual and non-binary. I grew up and still live in a very small, religious, conservative southern town. Growing up was really, really rough. I luckily never faced physical violence, which is only because I was tall at a young age and fat, so I was physically intimidating, but I know others who did face physical violence, and I still dealt with all other manners of homophobia/bullying. I had told a few friends of mine in 8th grade that I liked girls too (I didn't have the pansexual label yet, all I knew is that I had had crushes on girls as well as boys and had felt that way from a young age), and I thought those friends were loyal, but they not only spread it throughout the school, but many thought that I was looking at them in a sexual way and stopped hanging out with me. Teachers found out and I was told that I could no longer change in the girl's locker room because some parents had called to complain, saying they didn't want me near their daughters, especially in the locker room. I had to change in the bathroom. In middle school, I had slurs written on my locker and other belongings constantly, so much so that I stopped trying to erase them (they were always in Sharpie). In high school, teachers would single me and my girlfriend at the time out; we would get in trouble for "PDA" when we were holding hands, but there would be a straight couple damn near having sex (an exaggeration, but they'd be MUCH more physical than me and my girlfriend were) a couple feet from us and nothing was said to them. My brother found out, called me a freak and spit on me, told me he'd disown me if I ever married a woman. My dad told me that if I was ever intimate with a woman, I'd never see my late younger sister again, because I'd be going to hell. Comparatively, my mom is much more supportive, but she does still use slurs around me and says hurtful things.
It's really fucked up and I've never understood why it's so upsetting to other people, how people identify and who they love.
I'm happy to support a channel that doesn't tolerate homophobia or racism. Thank you for making it clear what you believe and cultivating a space where I feel comfortable enough to leave comments like this one.
The shower scene made me very uncomfortable... I am a trans woman, living in a slightly more democratic, but still a mostly muslim country. And I have been treated very badly a lot of times for people thinking I was gay, and it is not even illegal here. As I am now remembering the situations, I realise that there were too many for me to even remember from top of my head.
In school, being grabbed by my jacket and tearing it because I was trying to escape, another time being grabbed by a backpack strap by some random guys trying to stop me to "talk", as I managed to get my backpack and run. Remember a guy trying to throw a big rock at me but missing, he thought it would be funny, remember being surrounded by like 7 guys in a corner and I don't remember what was happenning but I just started stabbing people with a pen till teacher arrives. Had to run for my life when a group of guys was chasing me, I managed to hide in a random appartment building because I knew the code from it, the next month or so I have been leaving school at completely random places, climbing the fences, getting into public transport, going over different roofs to go to different parts of the streets. Remember being thrown small rocks at regularly when I was going home past another school.
There was a moment when some small kid that run and threw a large chunk of asphalt at my back, I was furious, grabbed him and the little shit started threatening me, but still couldn't even give a reason for why he did that.
I used to go to karate (My dad forced me to) and there was a moment when I was put in excercises, I was about 16 (At this point I was already set on the point where I was thinking of myself more as a female) and was put against a 27-30 year old guy, and using the situation he punched me in the solar plexus, making me unable to breath for at least 5 minutes, and a long time having problems breathing because I was crying and hyperventillating for a while.
I was robbed of my phone and money once, another like 4-5 times I was robbed just of money because I had a cell phone on those walks, they have been taking SIM cards from my phone every time though. And when I was robbed of a phone (I was about 15) I was with my friend thatlso got mugged and we went to the police, they treated us like shit, we didn't even look gay, unless wearing a dark red plaid shirt with black t-shirt is gay. They kept us in the police station for at least an hour, as we were the criminals, before I was started begging to get a call to my parents. It was about 11PM and they had no idea where I was, they were plain not allowing me to have a call and I had to go around every office untill I found a guy who gave me his phone to call, that was the first moment when I started being officially afraid of the police by the way, and being gay here isn't even illegal.
Oh and after 16-17 after I started trying to find someone to date, because I have been a hormonal mess, that was the point where I started receiving threats, people trying to blackmail me, using my photos and pretend to be me, also stalked. The worst part, a lot of people from dating knew my approximate location, so yeah. I legit got a couple of messages describing my clothing precisely and where I was earlier in the day. So that was terrifying...
And I have started HRT about 9-10 months ago, visible effects started showing about 5 months ago and accelerating now. But in the past 6 months alone I have been jumped by people on the streets several times, forcing me to run in one and hide in a restaurant in a second. Was standing at a bus station later at night, in the beginning of winter I got myself a nice light grey jacket, wearing warm white sweater and white scarf, so I guess I looked very female at that with my long hair. And a car stopped by, a guy opened a door and called to get in so he can give me a ride, since I didn't respond he opened his door, came out and walked to me, grabbed my by my hand. Only got saved by an elderly couple that started screaming as I was completely frozen in fear and he was forced to get in the car. And like 3 weeks ago I find that someone has written "where are you sexy?" on the wall next to our appartment's door, the question only means that it is written by someone that knows me, it's just impossible to translate. So it could be a message by countless of people I blocked on different social media and messengers, and those people have been threatening to do some fucked up and illegal and gorey stuff to me, I am talking of like three dozens of people who were sounding normal as I was trying to date me, were very insistant on dating me the same day I got to know them and as I refused for 3 time I get stuff talking about what they are going to do and/or break.
Like literally today, when I was in a crowded trolley, coming from work, I was standing close to the door because I had to go out on the next stop, and at the very last moment a guy and his mom came into the trolley. He was practically growling when talking to his mom, saying to stop pushing him. He was like 30 centimeters away from me and he was recoiling so much. Like... I tried squeezing myself into the wall, I was legitimately scared that he would punch me or something..
And right after I come out of the transport, went to a cafe to have some spicy noodles. When I was there I was constantly getting stares and stuff from 3 tables out of 5. One had about 8 people, another bunch is 2 and 3. People were legit turning almost 180 to look in my direction. That was uncomfortable as heck
Sorry for ranting... I am.... A bit tired mentally, January have been the worst. And I am currently trying to get a visa and get an asylum somewhere, trying to go to Netherlands at the moment
But yeah, being quote on quote gay in the beginning (It's straight if you are not a man), slowly transitioning to thinking of myself more and more as a woman, thinking in this way from about 14 and at 16 I was already thinking about the ways I could take these or these hormones. But even before 16 again, before 14, being forced to hang out with the guys, having to change in the guys changing rooms, other stuff. Especially when I was 15, specifically with the karate, having to change my clothes in front of what is basically a gym where everyone could see me, girls had the room to change in by the way. And when there were two rooms it was still plain bad, changing with so many guys, either having to wait until everyone is out or trying to cover yourself in white kimono as much and as quickly as possible. The worst so far though is when there were some shows or public performances, when everyone was doing the whole karate movements thing on the stage and the street. Guys were forced to change clothes, and I was forced to do that along them, ON A SIDEWALK, LIKE FUCK, WHAT THE FUCK. Basically on the open street with only hedge on one side, or behind the building alongside other 20-30 people. This.... This is at least a bit traumatising.. Alongside all the bullshit, but this one is still the most uncomfortable to remember
Again, at this moment I was pretty much considering myself a girl and it was... Uncomfortable to say the least. Even thinking about it right now gives me anxiety
Holy shit, as a trans guy living in a relatively accepting country its disgusting the shit you have to deal with. Good luck on your visa, I'm wishing you the best to get to a safer location.
I hope you make it to the Netherlands
you deserve better than all that has happened
I hope you’ve gotten good news about your visa and I’m sorry for what you’ve had to endure at the hands of a** hats
Are you ok?
Do you have ppl in your life that you can talk to?
Oh my good, reading all of that felt like a tumble into an absolute nightmare!! I am so, so sorry you had to deal with (and are still dealing with) such extreme and needless hate!! I really hope you do manage to get your visa and go somewhere far more welcoming. I am a trans man and because of gender stereotypes, people don’t feel “threatened” by a “girl being a man”. Yet they go INSANE at “a boy being a girl”. It’s just so ugly that they have such backwards ass thinking. You are so strong to make it through all of that in your life and I want you to know I admire than greatly. Please stay safe and I hope you find peace and safety soon! 💖. PS- Congrats on starting HRT!!
When I see a video from Seán that is longer than an hour, I know that I’m in for a good time.

Yes, man! Just in the nick of time. I needed a coffee shop video.
I’d rather he do a vid of the new little inferno sequel
Same
Elijah and Oliver: spending their lives together and having a child
Jack: it's nice that they kept in touch!
Totally joking btw, I feel super welcomed and safe in this community, Jack is an amazing person, and it was just an adorable straight cluelessness moment!
Every baby deserves and Aunt Tina to look out for them, even if She Is Groot.
Eric was really just like: "I'm sorry, I didn't know when I told the member of a hate group who gouged a woman's eye out that I thought I saw you having gay sex that he might hurt you. I promise, I didn't know what they were going to do when we prepared to ambush you in the bathroom in the middle of the night."
Bless you and thank you deeply for your open support of the LGBTQ+ community, Sean, from me and the other members of it.
buttered toast
It’s nice when people are open about supporting LGBTQ+, makes me like Sean even more!
