Oy, o' dear sir or madam, on what grounds are you basing this monsterous accusations on?! Pretty sure he has never left any wit--- I mean, pretty sure there has never been any witnesses to see him act any illwill whatsoever!
@@sweetestgirlonline His addiction is like the Thing itself, an infection that eats you from the inside out. We never noticed because he looked the same as ever, but in reality Kevin is too far gone to be saved. Soon enough every video is gonna be of games eerily similar to Among Us and every joke is gonna be a variation of "im sus" or " im venting". The apocalipsis is upon us. There is no escape.
My favorite part about Kevin editing in his “Kevin” voice lines is how deadpan they are. No attempt to make it transition smoothly, it’s just “Kevin 😐👍”
At 6:38, somehow when Kevin went into that hazard he skipped like 20+ minutes of gameplay where you meander around (linearly) finding more people and being told about what they've learned while exposed to The Thing(s) hanging around the area, which teaches you about how to use certain weapons and gets you familiar with the enemies in a slightly more enclosed setting. Like quite a lot of story and tutorial was skipped here lol. Not that I think many people would care to know this, but in case you're wondering where those guys come from, you're supposed to find them hiding out as you explore the wrecked buildings, and you have to gain their trust before they come with you by giving them tools, healing them, or arming them. Wild that a glitch like this is even present at all tbh and i haven't seen it in other playthroughs (though I'm not really an expert or anything lol). They just appear there truly
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 yeah Blake is the character you play as in this game, Kevin just replaced every instance of them saying his name with his own name lol. And there's a segment where you hear a speech that was in the original the thing movie (originally delivered by Kurt Russel but voiced by somebody else in the game) where he voiced over that as well
37:23 In actually, it wouldn't be weird for Pace to wonder naked out into the snowstorm, it's a real phenomenon called paradoxical undressing. The final stage of hypothermia causes people to be in a hightened state of confusion & disorientation. Once the person starts feeling overwhelmingly, irrationally hot, they'll unconsciously strip naked.
It's because as frostbite of exposed skin sets in and the nerve endings in the skin become damaged, the hypothermia victim starts to feel hot as if they are burning, and starts to take off clothes.
When you're at the very last stages you can't keep your body heat inside anymore, so it starts coming back out to your skin and makes your skin hot while your organs freeze, I think.
@@TF2CrunchyFrogIt's actually because the part of your brain that's responsible for thermoregulation has given up and no longer processes heat properly, or your muscles have been overwhelmed and are no longer stifling blood flow to your extremities. Usually, your body will limit the flow of blood outside of your core in extremely cold situations because it carries heat away and it's better that you lose fingers or even entire limbs to frostbite than for your core to be allowed to dip too low. However, once you overtax your muscles contracting your blood vessels, they relax and the blood flows normally again, making you feel warm even as you freeze to death. It's why paradoxical undressing is so disheartening: it's generally a sign you've passed the point of no return and death to hypothermia is imminent.
I believe Nightdive are doing more than just re-releasing it. I definitely wouldn't call it a remake, but they have pledged to address some of the 'broken' in-game mechanics you mentioned. Plus, as far as I know, Nightdive have a pretty good reputation for bringing back classics with a fresh coat of paint
They can't remake it. The IP keeps changing hands so often no Dev company knows who to get permission from. There is actually around 8-10 discontinued "Thing" projects including games, TV shows, Comics, and 2 movies prior to the newest release, simply because the IP changed hands mid dev and the new owners axed the plans. This is the first time the IP has been settled so long, the remaster is likely to re-spark interest leading to the dev of a new game entirely.
12:53 so Kevin was hanging with two impostors and they follow him around and listen to his commands instead of killing him, do you know why? Because Kevin gets all the humans dead somehow so he is more useful alive than dead (for the aliens)
If we went by Among Us logic, I'd say the two imposters keep Kevin around because he's basically a "third imposter"; they're strategically keeping him alive since he's a bigger liability towards his own crewmates than a threat to the parasite pfff
I went ahead to wiki to check a bit about this game which mostly included Infection System and NPCs. Each attack has a random chance of infecting a teammate. Teammates left alone with infected teammate can also get infected. Unfortunately quite a lot of NPCs are scripted to turn at some point of the game if they weren't infected and turned before, including Pace. Developers were not really happy with it either, it was their attempts at balancing the game (commands, ammo, encounter balance ect.), and seemed to consider it a mistake after release. They were hopping to fix it in the next game that never came to be. Infected will try not to blow their cowers (unless scripted). They will especially avoid doing so when in large groups of team-mates and so will fight the things instead otherwise they will do so sooner or later especially during the fights. Bonus info - crew mates classes: - Soldier - most brave, most accurate, most ammo efficient - green background on hud and SMG icon. - Engineer - medium brave, can be necessary to progress game if there is need to repair junction boxes - blue background on hud and wrench icon - Medic - brave, will go heal other people by themselves, but not heal themselves - red background on hud and syringe icon. Uniforms might not align with character class, especially for imitators Edit: Corrected repeated sentence about Thing blowing up its cover. Should be clear now
There is remaster in making. Both steam and gog have pages for it already up. Steam has some prototype in progress gifs also. And they do list few things they want to fix with npcs. I think remake would had been better way to go but I take remaster if that is only option (only if its good - the dev studio does have decent reputation so there is hope)
It was probably adressed to The Thing itself. Kevin knows he has a better chance of survival by befriending it rather than trying to kill it, so he attempts both things at once as its his custom to needlessly complicate everything. He also knows that The Thing can take the form of anyone, so it can replace all of his friends anyways. The friendship tactic would work in many levels.
the skits and higher quality content (not just to say it was “low” quality before) is really paying off-it’s not in vain, your hard work isn’t going unappreciated :)
I've watched you for about 2/3 years, im diagnosed with bipolar disorder and ive been homeless for awhile now, sometimes just putting your videos on as a distraction has been enough to keep me out of mental hospitals.

Oh man throw back to, "Well your transmitters down and everything else is FUBR, Well your transmitters down and everything else is FUBR, Well your transmitters down and everything else is FUBR, Well your transmitters down and everything else is FUBR"
I strongly urge Kevin to watch The Thing 1982 version if he hasn't already to understand the lore and for one absolutely kickass horror movie that IMO still hasn't been topped even more than 40 years later. I first watched it when I was like 8 and it gave me nightmares about dogs. You'll understand the context when you watch it.
@@Nightweaver1 It's entirely posible that he did watch the movie before but completely forgot everything since. Or remember just enough to have some context but still doesn't understand anything. Remember, this is Kevin we are talking about.

Apparently, this game is meant to be a direct sequel to the John Carpenter movie, The Thing. That means all 3 entries in the series are named the same! Original: The Thing (1982) Sequel: The Thing (2002 video game) Prequel: The Thing (2011)
The Thing From Another World (1952) is technically the original film. John Carpenter framed and shot The Thing in a way that made it a spiritual sequel to the 1952 film. The Norwegians at the start are actually meant to emulate the original crew from the OG. The aftermath at their base is meant to loosely represent the events of the 1952 title.
Apparently a longer version of the original story has been discovered in the author's archives, and Blumhouse are adaptating that version into a film...but it's not gonna be called The Thing.
The Thing is one of my favorite movies. It isn't about the creature, it is about the scientists going crazy and being super paranoid and they just kill each other out of fear.
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 There's three actually! The original was 1951's "The Thing from Another World," then John Carpenter's 1986 remake "The Thing" (which is what the game is based on), and finally a 2011 prequel/reboot by the same name "The Thing"
@@kryptobagginsthe 2011 was so bad. The previous one had so much soul and work into the "alien" and the shed scene with the wolves was so awesome. Yet 2011 with their budget and cgi doesn even make it a bit scary
I kept wishing the ai could react to what he was saying, I’d love to see Kevin play “suck up!”, that game where you’re a vampire trying to convince ai that they should invite you into their house using your voice
i’m a long time viewer. the first video i saw of his was a sims 3 video where he built a house and there was like no commentary for a third of it lol, but i kept watching because his play style was so chaotic and different from anyone else i could find on yt at the time. over the years i’ve watched him grow and change while coming into himself and i really hope he’s happier now and feels like some of the weight has been lifted off his shoulders since he took a step back. i’ve also noticed a wild difference in quality in the last couple of months. it kind of reminds me of when he left yt for a while and came back, the difference in quality i mean. if you’ve read this far this is your reminder to call your grandma. it’s actually obligatory so you like have to do it right now or you’ll go to jail
The most frustrating part of The Thing video game is that all of the companions are scripted to turn into monsters at certain points if they are still alive. There's nothing you can do to avoid this. Plus toward the end of the game it just becomes ridiculously hard, especially with the boss fights. The game was a good concept, it just wasn't tuned right.
That was phenomenal Kevin! 👏🏻 Your creativity knows no bounds. From the voice editing to the end where you have Kevin + Pace on the frozen glass. 😮 This was a treat! A trick or treat if you will! 👍🏼👽🎃
@@psychomanatee3459 Im assuming Among Us is an unoficial sequel to The Thing and the impostors are all actually Things. It kinda explains everything. One could even said the crew menbers look the way they do because humanity evolved to resist the Thing infection and in turn became more alienish. But that would be too much wild theorizing.
@@pedrovallefin8406 yeah, among us is 100% inspired by things like The Thing, but it's also a concept that's existed for awhile. I'm pretty sure The Thing is inspired by a Lovecraft story, so that's also pretty cool
I'm new to this channel, did this guy really just pull a Bruce-Willis-giving-Alan-Rickman-an-empty-gun-on-the-roof-of-the-Nakatomi-plaza move in the first minute of gameplay? That takes gumption, forthwith and genital confidence. Did anyone notice they only used one needle for the blood test...

The Thing From Another World (1952) is technically the original film. John Carpenter framed and shot The Thing in a way that made it a spiritual sequel to the 1952 film.
The Norwegians at the start are actually meant to emulate the original crew from the OG. The aftermath at their base is meant to loosely represent the events of the 1952 title.
Apparently a longer version of the original story has been discovered in the author's archives, and Blumhouse are adaptating that version into a film...but it's not gonna be called The Thing.
I didn't know there was a movie called The Thing. I only know Ben Grimm from the Fantastic Four.
Original Movie title.
"Something"
Coming at you in a theatre this spring.
I believe that the original title was: "This 2002 ps2 game is better than it any right has to be"
But it's not. The game just promises a lot.
The Thing is one of my favorite movies. It isn't about the creature, it is about the scientists going crazy and being super paranoid and they just kill each other out of fear.
Mine too!
Yeah about the mind going crazy in a desolate and hostile place. Just like Alien 1979. But I do prefer The Thing.

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 There's three actually! The original was 1951's "The Thing from Another World," then John Carpenter's 1986 remake "The Thing" (which is what the game is based on), and finally a 2011 prequel/reboot by the same name "The Thing"
@@kryptobagginsthe 2011 was so bad. The previous one had so much soul and work into the "alien" and the shed scene with the wolves was so awesome. Yet 2011 with their budget and cgi doesn even make it a bit scary
the moment i heard the wind and saw the text i knew you were playing the thing
i love it so very much
thank you for playing it!!
The scariest thing is knowing that Kevin is in charge
This longer format of letting things unfold with fewer edits and a slower pace is really nice, keep up the great work 👍🏻👍🏻
I remember when you first played this game, still one of my fav videos from you, so glad you came back to play it again, this game is hilarious.
I love how the game designers broke the rules of the Geneva convention in the game😊😊😊
I kept wishing the ai could react to what he was saying, I’d love to see Kevin play “suck up!”, that game where you’re a vampire trying to convince ai that they should invite you into their house using your voice
i’m a long time viewer. the first video i saw of his was a sims 3 video where he built a house and there was like no commentary for a third of it lol, but i kept watching because his play style was so chaotic and different from anyone else i could find on yt at the time. over the years i’ve watched him grow and change while coming into himself and i really hope he’s happier now and feels like some of the weight has been lifted off his shoulders since he took a step back. i’ve also noticed a wild difference in quality in the last couple of months. it kind of reminds me of when he left yt for a while and came back, the difference in quality i mean. if you’ve read this far this is your reminder to call your grandma. it’s actually obligatory so you like have to do it right now or you’ll go to jail
Kevin this is a masterpiece! You're taking gaming videos to a whole new level of entertainment. Keep it up and thanks for the hours of entertainment.
Loving the production quality of this. You spoil us too much Kevin.
Finally a generous representation of every group I've been in for a school project...love to see it
Kevin always manages to create best love stories in his gameplays. ❤
Bro! How did you even download this game! You’re a genius Kevin!
The amount of times I died laughing at this! 😂 Thank you sir. After the hurricane I definitely needed this
7:37 dude randomly moonwalks out of the way 😂😂😂
The most frustrating part of The Thing video game is that all of the companions are scripted to turn into monsters at certain points if they are still alive. There's nothing you can do to avoid this. Plus toward the end of the game it just becomes ridiculously hard, especially with the boss fights. The game was a good concept, it just wasn't tuned right.
That was phenomenal Kevin! 👏🏻 Your creativity knows no bounds. From the voice editing to the end where you have Kevin + Pace on the frozen glass. 😮 This was a treat! A trick or treat if you will! 👍🏼👽🎃
The Thing crawled so Among Us could imposter
The Thing vented 👀
@@psychomanatee3459 Im assuming Among Us is an unoficial sequel to The Thing and the impostors are all actually Things. It kinda explains everything. One could even said the crew menbers look the way they do because humanity evolved to resist the Thing infection and in turn became more alienish. But that would be too much wild theorizing.
@@pedrovallefin8406 yeah, among us is 100% inspired by things like The Thing, but it's also a concept that's existed for awhile. I'm pretty sure The Thing is inspired by a Lovecraft story, so that's also pretty cool
Your role playing is entertaining and fun!
Yep, this couldn't go bad at all... Putting Kevin in charge is the first mistake.
Might I just say, you look lovely all bruised and bloody! Very nicely done. I can say that because it’s spooky season. lol
18:42 Kevin making me think one of my peripherals disconnected from my PC
Yeah I had to rewind that and be sure lol
7:54 “yeah! 🥰 Alright, now we’re all buddies 😇”
1:49 Pretty sure they only tried to divide 0 by 0
"They used to call me The Thing back in High school." RTGame reference in Kevin's video? :D
You need to release the full version of the song at the end Kevin I’m begging you
I'm new to this channel, did this guy really just pull a Bruce-Willis-giving-Alan-Rickman-an-empty-gun-on-the-roof-of-the-Nakatomi-plaza move in the first minute of gameplay? That takes gumption, forthwith and genital confidence.
Did anyone notice they only used one needle for the blood test...
Congratulations to Kevin and Pace! Wishing them the best in their marriage
This is actually Kevin at his kindest, I remember when he used to trap people and make them ask permission from the sink to be let free.
The best part is when Kevin says [Kevin]
I love pace. His character is done so well.
the sequel we all needed
28:17 this is the reason he didn’t upload last week, he was mourning the death of Pace
Kevin, hope you're doing well. Been watching a ton of stuff recently, kind of missing the uploads. Hope you keep doing what makes you happy!
Kevin + John Carpenter's The Thing, two of my favourite things in one amazing video

The world is neither flat nor a globe it is a crumpled up folded and unfolded mess of high mountains and low valleys.
We perceive it as a globe because of gravity.
"It's better to be pissed off than pissed on" great line 😂
I like the "in world" monologue format
Why am I weirdly attracted to post-apocalyptic Kevin
Real
It's not just you
2:13 i was not expecting a rec room joke! Brilliant
Kevin should play Dress to Impress
Watching him play this game when I have today that a remake of the game was made is really funny😂
I’m disappointed Kurt Russell’s hat was not included in this game.
I’ve never played this game before, but I had a flashback when the guy said I’m fucking cold in the movie. The monster cannot stand the cold.
The only people who should be scared are there people working for Kevin because… kevin
I'm glad to see Kevin had the chance to voice act again
We missed you 😭
I hate when Kevo´s videos are so entertaining that they flee and you feel like it was just 7minutes but it was 30
please i want you to do this entire game!!!
'Well your transmitter's down and everything else is FUBAR...'
