You mate honestly are a brilliant TH-camr. Your like the Gordon Ramsey of video games and we love it. You deserve more subs but I can tell you your on the right path my mate 👏🏽
yeah you are the only youtuber who knows anything about video games and remembers what game should be, everyone else is millenial trash or a corporate shill. Keep making honest reviews, you're all we've got
"how is this mostly positive?" because people are not looking for a good game but for a cheap ghost house experience. just LOOK at, for example, Harshly criticals livestreams. He played some of the worst "horror games" imaginable yet most of them are either "positive" or "mixed". People are easy to convince that being shocked by a jump scare here and there, with loud music and so on, is "totally a good horror experience guys!" those suckers NEVER experienced the dread of Silent hill 2-3. They never had those moments in "eternal nightmare" where they actually didnt WANT to go down those stairs. They never had a real horror experience. The problem is: they dont WANT to! they are not really "horror fans" that want to be scared! they want to be excited by jump scares and that is the reason they are so easily enticed by this shit! They do half the work because they WANT to be scared by a monster going "HOOGABOOGA!!!". meanwhile, the real horror fans, that actually want to be made uncomfortable, that like the feeling of being nervous and simply speechless at the dread they feel. Those are rare! And games made for those people do not attract the mainstream because its too "extreme" and not "fun" anymore for them. So if they see a satyr running towards them in the shadows, they freak out! because people like that rarely even played stuff like DOOM or Call of cthulhu. Sp they never get used to the small things and instead think thats the "pinnacle of terror!" the fact that this thing is also using creatures from an normally underused mythology is another draw for the "normies" so there you get another reason why people sensationalize this game. Its a shame too... just imagine what you could do with Trolls that run after you in the forest and try to eat you! Or a bunch of Evil gnomes in a house you need to spend the night in! Those fuckers would fuck your shit UP! but all that was again replaced by generic jumpscare 1 and 2.... sigh. BTW mack. your steam review isnt there xD
Love from NZ keep up the good work man try Emily wants to play even though it might be shit graphically it uses the dark atmosphere and alot of jump scares but the jump scares are well done it lets you know when somethings there by noises Slappy gave me a fright watching StokedCali on twitch
During the demo they originally had when I supported this game on kickstarter the voice acting was amazing and sounded real professional. When it finally was released I could not believe they changed voice actors and a lot of other things that worked in their favor during the demo. In a game where story telling and the characters dialog is so important they really screwed up on that :( The demo was a great experience, the end result..well....
You didn't even play it for 100 hours Mack, give me a break. How can you make an informed decision!! and look at the steam reviews, KetjL says: "Scary ♥♥♥♥!!! I played this over the weekend, and it's one hell of a game! Epic graphics, and an ambiance that makes you wish Halloween didn't exist in the first place! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!". His time played, 0.1 hours. Certainly a marvel.
You're right, the shills aren't even trying anymore, they could at least put some effort into it: "Enjoy the novel norweigan setting and a solid horror experience." 0.1 hours
Saw the livestream today. Have to say, even the Rake was scarier than this game, at one point (the troll) I even thought it was the Rake. Hopefully next halloween will be better Mack. Rake 2 maybe?
"The biggest pile of shitballs, I've ever had the misfortune to look at in the whole of 20-fucking-16" I absolutely the reviews, especially the "Not WAB" reviews.
Best horror games, Dead space 1 + 2. Fear has also a nice atmosphere. Best KI in a shooter for many years, fantastic. The Evil within is nice B Movie style. I´d rather play that again.
My fav games for halloween are: American McGee's Alice Silent Hill 2 Resident Evil 1 Fatal Frame 2 Alan Wake F.E.A.R. Anyone got favourites I didn't mention?
Mack, cant believe how much time you have to review all of the games you do. Have you got a missus that is very forgiving (or have you retired from doing a proper job)? I'm dead envious by the way. From the same era as yourself (Clan in 1994 Quake world - Pain keep was my favourite Mod). But my roots lie in the EZ 200 (1983) and the Commodore 64 (The way of the exploding fist' and 'Elite)'. Love your reviews... Keep it up.
can you do a top 5 or 10 for the games of this year please....AAA and overlooked games, please? in my opinion not many good AAA but intrigued to know what games should have got our attention which haven't...
I'm a bit disappointed at your feelings. I streamed this game and had a blast. It was extremely atmospheric and the creatures and stories were very fresh and interesting to me. The voice acting was abysmal, but I really enjoyed the notes and the overall story. The game looked very nice and performed much better than I would have expected. It didn't look AMAZING, but I found myself impressed with the textures more often than not. Anyway, a shame it gets a thumbs down IMO, but I can see where you're coming from for a lot of this. I think it would be worth a buy for people looking specifically for an atmospheric walking simulator to be immersed in for a few hours. It was worth the play personally. Cheers.
Hey Mack , as always thanks for doing what you do :). Sent a message your way via Mackscorners . not sure when will get to it , but checked out those games in the bundle and well almost wouldnt want to give them to my worse enemy even lol. But would like to know the question though about gifting a game on greenman if its possible and how to.
Milan Judák He'll just say the same thing he said about the base game. The expansion has the same gameplay, which is what mack didn't like about the base game.
the worst part about the voice acting is that this is actually a pretty accurate representation of norwegian english from my anecdotal experience
My anecdotal experience too, having grown up with an English teacher from Trondheim.
Well my respect for all those reviewing sites are out the window
I honestly don't understand why anyone looks at any of these sites
I'm a Norwegian and OMG the voice acting is fucking hilarious XD
It's not the fart that kills, it's the smell!
You don't need to be from Norway to hear how bad that acting is.
BlueSharkBoy434 I know, but that is not what I'm saying. I just think it gets more hillarious because of it. Hard to explain why.
HAHAHA good old Petter Solberg
You mate honestly are a brilliant TH-camr. Your like the Gordon Ramsey of video games and we love it. You deserve more subs but I can tell you your on the right path my mate 👏🏽
Thanks Joshua
Mack: "You see this game?"
developer: : "Uhm, yes? What's wrong with it?"
Mack: It's WANK MATE! GET OUT! OUT OF THE KITCHEN!
You forgot : ''banter piss''
You forgot: "big pile of..."
yeah you are the only youtuber who knows anything about video games and remembers what game should be, everyone else is millenial trash or a corporate shill. Keep making honest reviews, you're all we've got

BTW mack. your steam review isnt there xD
I think you may be right.
Deus Vermiculus Outlast is probably one of the best horrors in my opinion
Love from NZ keep up the good work man try Emily wants to play even though it might be shit graphically it uses the dark atmosphere and alot of jump scares but the jump scares are well done it lets you know when somethings there by noises Slappy gave me a fright watching StokedCali on twitch
Alien Isolation with the Oculus Rift. Now THAT is a true horror game.
A mopey Norwegian horror game? Instead of monsters, it should have featured unwanted human interaction.
You're saying those things in the forest that are running away because of the flashlight are actually Finnish people? That makes sense.
Hiking simulator... Get outside instead... Cheaper and more fun.

4000 sales on steam.. wtf xD 4000 times 18$ .. 72.000$ xD wtf!? i'm going to make my own shitgame
xD
Pretty sure, noone wants to pirate this shitgame.
Steam gets a 30% cut. Still that's more than a lot of people make in a year who actually have to go out and work.
steamspy.com
Just long enough so that you can't get a refund.
I'm Scottish and what the christ was that impersonation?!
HE'S WELSH
@@discojoe3he's from Durham 😂
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD RING THE 🔔!!!!
Yeah. Where was the bell??
He promised us the bell in the live stream.
I think he broke it reviewing Gears 4 :P
Good point. I don't think any bell could survive a proper Gears of War 4 review!
But, but - the tire swing swinged! It must be WAB!
Aliens was the last horror game I played. I know it's good, because I couldn't finish it.
Your opinion is the righteous one. Your reviews are the only one that i can trust, not other scammers
did... the wolf motorboat the girl at the end Oo?
Seriously though, that sounded more like them having sex than it killing her...
I love when you review shitty games. The anger is real. hahahahaah love it
You didn't even play it for 100 hours Mack, give me a break. How can you make an informed decision!! and look at the steam reviews, KetjL says:
"Scary ♥♥♥♥!!! I played this over the weekend, and it's one hell of a game! Epic graphics, and an ambiance that makes you wish Halloween didn't exist in the first place! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!". His time played, 0.1 hours. Certainly a marvel.
You're right, the shills aren't even trying anymore, they could at least put some effort into it:
"Enjoy the novel norweigan setting and a solid horror experience." 0.1 hours
Why didn't he disclose that fact (if it's true) in his Steam review?
That is dishonest in my opinion, hence the term shill is correct.
I'd rather play Kimulator, or take a long walk off a short pier
Thanks for making me Google Kimulator *>:(*
Paradox Acres all you have to do now is buy it ;) watch Mack's video it's hilarious
Saw the livestream today. Have to say, even the Rake was scarier than this game, at one point (the troll) I even thought it was the Rake. Hopefully next halloween will be better Mack. Rake 2 maybe?
Yeah Rake had potential, maybe I will see what it's like now.
please show us your pc and setup
So you run along a forest path and then shine a torch in a monsters face?
Looks fucking riveting.
To be honest I really really like the history the gameplay not so much, but I liked to learn about Norse mitology
"The biggest pile of shitballs, I've ever had the misfortune to look at in the whole of 20-fucking-16" I absolutely the reviews, especially the "Not WAB" reviews.
The kid was named after the mother's favorite sports network: ESPN
Unique story? "Old dude stole my son and I want him back" blown away by that UNIQUE story right there.
Through the woods and over the hills to get to the game Agony that's coming out. Can't wait to play Agony.
man for some reason I used to get confused with the forest and through the woods
Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2 were great horror games in recent years
JIMMMMMMYYYYYY
SAVILLLLLLLLE!
WOOOOOOOO BOYYYYYY! WHAT A PARTY!
"I've must have run two marathons in this game." Enough to get away from any horrors. LOL.
A great , and free, horror game is "Witche's house"; you should give it a try
Fucking love the sass hahaha
Hahahaha the voice acting so good !!
One of my friends was working on this game :) its great considering of the small team they have.
That was fucking delicious, Eggs on toast!
i like the norse theme so when i saw this pop up on steam i thought it would be more like silent hill than a walking simulator and boy was i wrong
Thanks, you saved me a couple of quid. 👍
Was that glowing wolf thing at the end laughing ?!?!
Mack, you're doing yeoman's work, wading into the cesspool so the rest of us don't. I thank you.
IS IT WORTH A BUUUUUUUY!
But the tire!!! It swings!!!
You did well, son.
How can you see a voice over Mac? How?
Best horror games, Dead space 1 + 2.
Fear has also a nice atmosphere. Best KI in a shooter for many years, fantastic.
The Evil within is nice B Movie style.
I´d rather play that again.
Hoping RE7 goes back to its roots and delivers
The Evil within? really? the most generic shit I have ever played. There was nothing scary about it. Than again, my opinion.
Fear wasn't a horror game, though. Quake was a good horror-themed shooter, blasted through it for Halloween.
Whoa. Did WAB change his background music during a video!?!? WHAT IS THIS!?
THAT VOICE ACTING THO
Stunning and brave… shit.
MACK WILL REVIEW CIV 6!?
if it was called "walk in the woods" it would be a 10/10 just for the dollar in the woods
Norwegians and their trolls...
My fav games for halloween are:
American McGee's Alice
Silent Hill 2
Resident Evil 1
Fatal Frame 2
Alan Wake
F.E.A.R.
Anyone got favourites I didn't mention?
Wow mack actually finished a game he reviewed.
what are your top horror games mac?
Outlast, Amnesia Dark Descent, The original Friday 13th on C64 :)
You didn't liked SOMA?
Penumbra > Amnesia. Amnesia is overrated.
Alien Isolation?
Don't like Undying?
Mack, cant believe how much time you have to review all of the games you do.
Have you got a missus that is very forgiving (or have you retired from doing a proper job)?
I'm dead envious by the way.
From the same era as yourself (Clan in 1994 Quake world - Pain keep was my favourite Mod).
But my roots lie in the EZ 200 (1983) and the Commodore 64 (The way of the exploding fist' and 'Elite)'.
Love your reviews... Keep it up.
Over the meadow and through the woods to grandmas house we go?
Have you played Soma? One of my facourite horror games, so good
Cmon Mack, Soma was not so long ago and it was goooooood.
can you do a top 5 or 10 for the games of this year please....AAA and overlooked games, please? in my opinion not many good AAA but intrigued to know what games should have got our attention which haven't...
This game sounds fun, I like running games that's how I ended up with DayZ
I miss the real old school horror games like the old silent hill and resident evil games...
was that the monster from rake but in a giant tree skin?
ahhahahha i really like when mack bashes the game. great review
chocolate man of the one he knocks isnt the guy who makes meth.
Ho ho a monsterrr... lol
I'm a bit disappointed at your feelings. I streamed this game and had a blast. It was extremely atmospheric and the creatures and stories were very fresh and interesting to me. The voice acting was abysmal, but I really enjoyed the notes and the overall story. The game looked very nice and performed much better than I would have expected. It didn't look AMAZING, but I found myself impressed with the textures more often than not.
Anyway, a shame it gets a thumbs down IMO, but I can see where you're coming from for a lot of this. I think it would be worth a buy for people looking specifically for an atmospheric walking simulator to be immersed in for a few hours. It was worth the play personally.
Cheers.
6:04 XD
the acting is amazing what are u talking about. lmao
I think I smell a "Through the woods 2 " who's excited?? :)
Mack are you planning on reviewing Obduction?
Thanks for saving me 20 bucks Mack! Actually it's already on a 10% sale, they must be really trying to push it.
666 likes.. well i think the dev is haunting you mac.
You'll be sued by the Savile estate!
Mack you are so freaking funny
Since when has 2010 been 'the old days'?
I love how you talk to yourself :D
Oh, and why don't you try Salt and Sanctuary out?
Mack, will you be reviewing Tyranny when it comes out?
Can you wab Penumbra Black Plauge, or at least continue the series on mackscorner? :)
ohhhhh nooooo, mack, this ended your good games of the end of 2016 streak, so close yet so far
Amnesia feels too new and modern to be considered a classic to me.
Another game where the developers didn't give a shit.
But it had a moving tire swing so it must be good. Right? No?
Hey Mack , as always thanks for doing what you do :). Sent a message your way via Mackscorners . not sure when will get to it , but checked out those games in the bundle and well almost wouldnt want to give them to my worse enemy even lol. But would like to know the question though about gifting a game on greenman if its possible and how to.
Will check it tonight
They actually do sound Norwegian, despite being completely dull in their speech.
always saving me monies mack
Happy evening
Mack. Try Clockwork Empires yet? Is it WAB?!
Mack!! Go and take a look at Hello Neighbor Game! It's in Pre-Alpha but It's going to be brilliant! Scared the living shit out of me.
Play gamecube's Eternal Darkness... underrated classic there...
Mack are you going to give RE7 a shot? It's going to be in first person. The demo wasn't too bad at all.
From what I've heard the voice actors should be good in Norwegian. Try it out with subs!
That voice acting sounded super wooden, but yeah... That's how a lot of people from up here in the frozen north actually speak =p
lol this game mack always in his A game
Penumbra is about to get a mod to support VR on vive Mac :D have you got a vive?
Not yet
Yet huh :) well if you grab one would love to see you do a play through of A Chair In A Room: Greenwater. made me scream like a mad man haha
MACK! I watched the stream and I hope next year you will play something scary.
So Mack will you WAB The Witcher 3 expansion? :3
Milan Judák He'll just say the same thing he said about the base game. The expansion has the same gameplay, which is what mack didn't like about the base game.
No.
NAH
Stream was funny altho' I admire your patience Mack to play til' endgame. :)
Lol, they ripped off the troll in Troll Hunter.
"The worst ****ing voice acting I've ever, ever, ever seen." - Mack
"Do you know how long ever is?" though that was maybe a different review.
Shame. *ring* Shame. *ring* Shame. *ring*
lol, Mack, you should have more conversations with your Scottish alter-ego!
