Zach, did you hear about the new "goth gamer" movement? I heard it's all the rage with the kids. They even call themselves a "goth gamer nation".
Is it an Islam thing? Cause I've always been a lil suspect at trying out a ground up main fork off of islam... like it's annoying getting things like Wahhabism contextualized under the main fork as a component as a whole as by design your not supposed to be differentiating anyhow, bad reputation gets its spread as fast as the cold hard cash that spread the corruption whole sale from what was a minor and insignificant dead end till the Saudi oil boom... But at the same time, when you are trying to keep it from having any dead weight as spirituality instead of an organized religion, forks just kinda add all the more opportunity for that to happen, ie how the Shia branch ended up with a technical pope, in a faith that by it's core tenant has no organizational structure...
So I wish em all well, God knows the nation is one of the worst in adding structure and religion to the faith and could benefit from a mix up of re-examining priorities (not in a Shodan way of course)... I guess I just liked the Malcolm X approach better where you just drop the pretense altogether... but people gonna be people... everyone's gotta feel like they belong to something... and that where your real problems start... Beit human or corporate or object, ideology is the killer of the human soul... so I hope these goth kids don't end up like those hair metal kids back in the 80's... next thing you know you get Motley Crue and even worse... alternative radio stations.
Ii9 p
It's almost adorable, how they regularly run into walls and guzzle stuff they find under the sink looking for "the good stuff" that they heard about on their FaceBooks.
On the other hand, they don't even know how to use a safety pin or tie their own Daemonica boots, so it's pretty superficial at best... Still, points for at least trying to emulate one of the better counter-culture movements in history.
Demonia, I think you meant.
selling datura seeds to goth middle-schoolers is a safe, fun, and legal way to enjoy your afternoon :)
Cant believe Mumford and all of his sons died in that tragic speed boat crash.

my wife is not a gamer. but. this is her favourite video game of all time. she has played it over 11 times to 100% completion. actually obsessed.
your wife is the only person with the correct opinion on video games
She's a keeper, so don't even try to score a goal.(yes i'm very tired)
You better marry that wife.
An obsessive woman? Never seen that before lol
Still, she 's a gamer. One game gamer
we out here with ONE HOUR AND TWENTY TWO MINUTES OF GOTH GAMER ACTION

You're not a real goth if you're not

I just finished twin peaks a week ago and kinda wished Grim Beard covered every episode of it after he’s done supernatural
gotta light?
Oh my God, thatd be great
twin peaks is, like, really good tho
So.... in, like, a few years then lol. Doesn't Supernatural have like 15 seasons or something?
I wish
The "Mumford or one of is sons, or possibly a Lumineer" line got me lol.
Babe wake up, there's some new feature length goth gamer angst
Did you hear that, Zach?
Literally my morning with my wife
@@YouSoSpice Don't worry he already knows about it
I'll make the popcorn if you get the weed BB
I sleeping, baby, go make coco with the mambozollis. Ciao.
The Whistle Theme "Life is Beautiful" is a masterpiece. It`s been 10 years and it`s still running in a loop in my head. Why is my nose bleeding?
its like the composer knew exactly what "no thoughts, head empty" sounds like.
It may interest you to know that it's basically an arrangement of the "Athletic" theme from Super Mario World
You and me both, brother.
I have to keep forcing it out with even more catchy Jpop and JRPG battle music than I'd normally listen to.
GOTH GAMER NATION HYPE
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Every time I see you guy's say goth gamer nation , I want to start running around like Nicholas Cage screaming
" I'm a vampire , kill meee!!!"
My first experience of this game was in 2013, when a friend of mine got snowed in at my place for a week and happened to have brought DP to show me with him in the driver's seat and me observing as we went through the whole game. This friend was just as obsessed with old B movies as York and my name is Zach. It was perfect.
Another video to restore my crumbling mind. Let the goth gamer energies flow through me. And Mandalore's name got read right before mine? What a time to be alive.
Big Red. The Biggest and Reddest of all the GGN.
@@adamwest8711 I chose neither my large frame nor my red hair, but my gothic heart will beat on to spite them both
We need more people talking about Deadly Premonition. It's more than a game, it's an experience.
EXACTLY!
We need more people talking about Grim Beard. It's more than a UA-cam channel, it's a Goth Gamer Nation.
We need more people to talk about pancakes...
Yeah. Pure pain.
yea I love it. its a broken hot mess, but it lets me live in a david lynch fever dream and nothing else has ever scratched that itch so well.
That Mumford & Sons joke hits everytime I watch this, Grim just can't miss.
Incredible video. I absolutely love the new music. I don't mean to be like, weird or anything, but there's literally no one else on UA-cam with this kind of talent. No offense intended to the other UA-cam dudes™ out there. Grim's just built different, y'know.
Good ole Grimsy does kinda do it all in these videos. I love the Gmans, Civvie, Mandalore, Noah Caldwell Gervais, etc of the world but they wish they could cram as many unique jokes and production values into their videos. Big inspiration for the channel I mean to start myself soon
I agree
I loved the useless food/sleep stuff, windshield wipers, car conversations, and especially being a host for a swarm of flies. You can say the end was bleak but those flies thrived for the whole game.
Twin Peaks is one of my all time favourite shows. I really want to see Grimbeard make an hour and a half videos covering every episode
*favorite *make *an hour
ouch. better not use a language you don't have a grip on, eh?
yeah fuck supernatural gimme dale cooper

Certainly better than that bs for teenage girls Supernatural

“If you can get past the taste of those bodily fluids, you might find a decidedly unique experience”
truly words to live by
Been waiting so dang long for you to cover this.
Better grab snacks.
Yeees, after bringing it up multiple times, it's finally here!
This is definitely because of me, neither by popular demand or because it was simply on his list!
Thank you. Your doing the Lord's work here.
Funfact: Due to it being so unnoticed it basically escaped lawsuit because the similarities are so striking that even in the EU it'd count as plagarism- or patern-theft.
I have heard way back that this is kinda the case with the OTHER Twin Peaks inspired game made out there, Mizzurna Falls. It copies a lot of the story beats of Twin Peaks to the point where you kinda have to ask "what's the point? To embelish yourself on an already made story?" I dunno though I love seeing how Japan filters western media through their heads, its just strange that they don't "do something" with the preestablished stuff.
Nobody ever mentions the brutal, "frozen steak hit with a 2x4" sound York makes when he taps his chest.
Oh my god, my favorite Supernatural UA-camr also makes videos about vidya games? What's next, am gonna find out that Grimdaddy also makes videos for suggesting cool music, or even their own songs?
For real, I need a new Doxaphobia for my earholes.
That was fun to watch! I have a lot of respect for your dedication and effort to give this a balanced review. Also very cool that you gave a shoutout to that interview with Curtis - your channel popped into mind when Ross announced it a while back.
God damn it this man is talented.
Vinny and Jeff playing this over on Giant Bomb for an Endurance Run did a lot to popularize the game. Them inviting SWERY on was pretty nice, too. Their playthroughs of this and Persona 4 are kind of the granddaddy of the Let's Play genre in a way, come to think of it. That P4 one has never really been topped.
Mgmt joke had me wheezing since I *just* discovered that album
Never change grim, you're the best
Little Dark Age is the shittttt
This is perhaps the channels best video-essay yet, and that's saying something, since most of the reviews are so friggin' awesome! :D
Also, I can imagine the pain and suffering while writing and revising the script and splicing the video together, and I really hope you know the gang really appreciates the hard work.
Stay awesome, dude!
Thanks for putting so much time and effort into this one; you're the man Grimbo.
This channel has got to blow up soon.
Zach?
Grimbeard made a video about us.
Yes Zach, the goth gamer.
yes.
i will make some coffee
I had a strange feeling we’d be blessed with an upload this weekend, god bless you Grim, stay spooky
Ye boy Grimbo Slice is back. Hurrah
Based underrated nickname giver
My oh my. I was really looking into this to hear how it relates to Twin Peaks, which has been mentioned everywhere. But damn. I wasn't expecting to get SO detailed information. Thanks 👍👍
This channel is a second coolest gothic thing after Notre Dame!
i've been in such a twin peaks mood lately. this is great timing. glad to see another game review from you, grim.
Years ago I went blindly into this game without knowing how hard it would blow my f****** mind. I loved every tacky second of it. Too bad about the ridiculous amount of game killing bugs on the PC. Were it not for that, I would jump into a third playthrough without even thinking. So much crazy of the good kind.
Deadly premonition is like when you're watching twin peaks reruns on TV and then exploring empty Garry's mod maps during the ad breaks
I was wondering if this would ever be a video after all the references i have seen on your channel. Finally!
One of your best works to date and a total distillation of your style. What a pleasure it is to rewatch this one
New video AND IT'S DEADLY PREMONITION!? I was scouring your channel the other day because it seemed like the kind of thing you'd have covered.
For a second I thought my browser was gonna crash bc I just came from Wheel of the Black Spine Plinketto. You can't do that to me bro
Fr tho I'm glad Grim and everyone's fun drunk Midwestern uncles are still making content.
You’re the only UA-cam’s I start to get worried about after a few weeks lol. Thanks for making my day. I love this game and am glad you finally watched season three!
Ive been watching youtube since it basically started. But this is it. Video Essays are the peak of internet media.
Big thanks for going into the story and themes of this game in such detail! I could never stomach the unstable code and tedious gameplay, so experiencing it vicariously is such a treat!
I've watched this video several times now. I just love your videos, I love how this a longer one and it's about a weird and interesting game.
Its kinda impressive how much footage of this game video essayists/reviews like this can get. Like every single lets player i remember playing this game when i was younger started out super hyped liked "yeah! Ive heard good things, its a weird one, lets get into it!" And then it only gets like maaaybe 2 episodes in before the person has to just quit because they cant reliably get footage
Ah yes, the PC Port which I couldn't get running well no matter what, I actually ended up getting the Switch version since it has less issues. (after it got patches.)
As for melee weapons, they actually do drastically more damage than any gun that isn't the magnum.
God I'm so happy i found this video. I've been binging your vids for like three weeks. Anyway how arr people complaining about the cutscenes? If i recommend Deadly Premonition it usually comea with a "you might wanna just watch all the cutscenes on youtube instead of playing the game" lol
Glad to see you were able to get this uploaded. :)
Give this man some more likes, just subscribed and I love the content. Keep it coming. Better then most of these really big channels on youtube.
Jokes aside. You have really outdone yourself with this video, as well as really come to form.
I found this to be my favorite video you made. I stopped doing my chores to sit down and watch this, thank you I really enjoyed this.
I have not been this excited for a new upload for... over a year at least. Deadly Premonition and my boy Grim, both underrated and very unique gems.
Holy hell, this is the best vid on Deadly Premonition on YT and I don’t see it being outdone anytime soon. Thank you for this.
I'm so happy you covering this game I use to play this game when I was younger and idk y but till this day I somehow still feel connected to this game like I will never forget this game
Oh yeah!
Having just stumbled across your channel recently, I was excited to see this game being looked at through your perspective. I've just gotten to the part about the Destructoid review and finding out the person who wrote that review was Jim Sterling. Reading their review is what pushed me to purchase this game for the 360 and it is an experience that hasn't left me. For all the actual issues the game has (like how off shooting/targetting and moving/driving felt), it still one of my favorite games I've ever played and the Life is Beautiful track is an eternal earworm for me.
This is my favorite video on the internet currently and yes i've watched this twenty times today on repeat and am currently using it to fall asleep
I'm happy to see you again, I thought you were strike down for the supernatural videos!
Characters that emerge from the ground and bend over backwards?
Literally me.
Sometimes I hope I'm shadow banned and not just uncool. But deep down I know the truth
"Zach, I think I just met Mumford or one of his sons, maybe a Lumineer." LOL wow I have not laughed that hard in a while, so glad I found your channel!
Comfort channel, been obsessed with it since I found it two weeks ago. Thanks for posting. Commenting to help engagement!
Gotta love that mp5 with a 360 round magazine even though the reload is really fast so the gun didnt need that much ammunition
I'm still impressed by your writing style, which fits so well with general UA-cam viewing experience.
Your alive! Was worried my dude, thought you ran into trouble at the homeless shelter
an hour and twenty minutes of grim, be still my heart
This is my favourite game, my dog is named Emily, her face is tattooed on my hand.
Love any discussion of this game x
"Mr Francis York Morgan". Just thought I'd add that one more time.
Thanks for the review bro, heard amazing things about this game but the game-breaking bug on PC kept me away when I ended up looking into getting a copy. Keep up the killer content, I'm a really big fan! Cheers.
GOTH CHRISTMAS CAME EARLY THIS YEAR BOYS LET"S GOOOOOOOO
Deadly Premonition is easily my favourite game of the generation - the character of York, and the way the main story is told goes a long way to cover up for it's gameplay faults. That being said... The 360 version was incredibly more stable than any other version & more focused - even if some gameplay feels a little more jank. There's sooo many issues with the Director's Cut that it really does a disservice to the game, even if it wasn't perfect.
The side stories & events really highlight the purpose of the open world & night/day system though - they really add more dimension to the overall game though.
The PC version wasn't great. I remember having trouble fighting Kaysen because I couldn't aim vertically above a certain height. It was like there was an invisible boundary on the screen that couldn't be crossed. Also, Nvidia Shadowplay would only output a slice of the screen. Not the most busted old console port I've seen, though.
it's always a good day with another grimbeard video
17:01 Goddammit dude don't do that to me I was drinking coffee and nearly spit it all over my desk. That came out of nowhere and I love it.
GRIMDADDY ISN'T DED
I can play it, now? Thank you! Missing this over Mass Effect, this game is now priority (and costs less too).
I played it for a couple of hours at my friends place and although, "Twin Peaks" was far away from the revival it's seen as of late I immediatey flashed back to being 15 years old. "This game is so 'Twin Peaks'!". Immediately hooked me, while everyone else was so, "whatever" at best, regarding this title.
I so appreciate this vid. THANK YOU. I'm not some "super-gamer", but this title was one I always felt that I missed out on.
You've done a good deed, sir. May all of your daily Horroscope's bring ambiguous news of good fortune, while vaguely applicable to the circumstances of your personal life.
Deadly Premonition is pretty much Twin Peaks the Game, so this must have been a dream come true for Grimbeard.
Whoa whoa whoa, excuse me, I do believe Swery has stated for the record that he had never even *heard* of Twin Peaks until after he made this game. So, you know, those instances that seem to be exact references to Twin Peaks? Those are coincidences. All 50+ of them.
Been waiting for this one! Love your stuff =)
Concerning those flashing/visual glitches, did you happen to hear the distant laughter of Rich Evans accompanying them?
How inconvenient that I’ve discovered this video at bedtime
I got me some beers, snacks and then this 1+ hour beast drops.
Sunday at its best. 🍻
YES
After all this time, having never seen an episode of Twin Peaks in my life, I just ordered a set, along with the sequel series and the movie, Fire Walk With Me, based on what you have said about it. Grim. Congrats, you may have just made a new fan of that show (not a Lynch guy, though I do like his version of Dune and the film Lost Highway).
I was about to go to sleep and I see this in my feed.....you beautiful monster!
"I think I've just met Mumford, or one of his sons. Maybe a Lumineer." I might get on his Patreon just for that roast alone
I originally started out looking for a new horror game back in 2010-2011 since I had played them all up to that point. I stumbled upon Deadly Premonition absolutely never hearing of it, there was only one copy available within a 25 mile radius around me and I rushed to grab it for some reason. I popped it in my Xbox 360 and I just played it straight through, I have no clue how to describe how addictive the game was but I absolutely could not put it down until I finished it. It was the most delightful experience I've EVER had with a game, and to this day it is my favorite (and yes, I am a little disappointed by the sequel, but am still happy we even got one). I loved the game so much it prompted me to watch the phenomenal Twin Peaks which has become my favorite piece of media ever. Needless to say, try it. It truly is one of those things you either love or hate, but honestly, I have introduced many people to this game, friends, coworkers, and surprisingly they shared the same feelings I did and also went on to watch Twin Peaks. Very thankful for this game.
The Original 360 version is still to this day the best version of the game and it's very hard to find!
An hour and twenty two minutes and not one 15 minute silent rotating shot of The Pickles
I've been binging your content for the better part of a few days now as I'm inevitably being what we call "being a gamer", and I'm starting to realize that the more i look into these and the more this fixation towards Twin peaks seems to have permeated a lot of the horror genre. Now I'm sure that comes off as " yeah duh" but as someone who hasn't watched it I wonder if I would need to watch it in the future to enjoy these kinds of games further.
The mention of Alan wake was brought up and I never really thought about it more then what the game had to offer at the time (then again I didn't finish it but I got time)
Loving the content so far ~
I feel so seen
I laughed at the system killer part the same way. Only an hour of video left now
I was already hooked by this game from the opening cutscene. It's weirdness and (OBVIOUS) Twin Peaks influence really tickled my fancy... But when York started talking to Zach about the movie "The Deadly Spawn" during yet another boring driving sequence, I knew I was in love.
Well, looks like I'm rewatching Twin Peaks once again
One allusion I’ve never heard that I feel is deserved is it sometimes feels like a kojima game. Crazy amount of cutscenes, eccentric characters, story is all over the place, heavily inspired by other media, has that “flavor” that can’t really be found anywhere else. I rest my case.
The internet has been waiting for the day someone will roll along and give Twin Peaks (I mean Deadly P....I legit typed Twin Peaks and I meant Deadly P.....) the lengthy video it has deserved.
So glad it was Grim Beard.
Spy fiction brings me so many memories. It was my first game on the PS2 and I really loved it. I've never met anyone who knew this game xD.
It's a fantastic game and really hard to find in North America now. I like how Swery puts his own spin on familiar media, Like Spy Fiction : Metal Gear Solid and Deadly Premonition : Twin Peaks
to play or not to play, that has long been the question
I'll watch this and get some spoilers and then probably forget and maybe get to play it some day
oh hey, I'm zach
well, maybe I should play it then...
nah
Video game reference.
I remember really loving Super Best Friends playtrough of this game, then it came out on PC, I bought it aaaand.. It was crashing so often, I just gave up after an hour. :(
I've been waiting for you to review this game!!! Woohoo! Keep it up mate!
First I made pizza. Sat down on my sofa. gave a thump up. And enjoyed the heck out of this episode.
Heck yeah man! Really hyped for this
Oh my God he finally did it. THE MADMAN!!!!!!
