"Am I supposed to find something here?" "You're supposed to fekkin find these vibes 🎶" Jack and Gabs duo stream is a fantastic and confusing mix of chaos and focus. I love it 😂❤
Tbh I’m on Ned’s side. Nancy ditches her friends, family , and boyfriend A LOT to go on her adventures. And while she is doing good work that helps people, she never really asks the people in her life if they’re ok with it. She just assumes they will be. She could at least bring Ned or Bess & George with her more often. I don’t blame Ned for being upset that he once again has to take the backseat in Nancy’s life. They def didn’t communicate well about it but I think Ned’s feelings are valid. Edit: I’m glad Ned decided to find hobbies outside of Nancy :)
True, Nancy really doesn't consider Ned's feelings at all. He just wants to have a good time with his girl and she always ditches him for her own adventures, ignoring all his efforts. She can't expect him to just sit back and wait around for her all the time, it's pretty selfish and ignorant of her. I always wondered when the poor guy would reach his breaking point and here we are, I guess. 😅 I really like that the Hardy brothers stand up for their bro Ned and point it out to Nancy that she neglects Ned, who is heartbroken. A boyfriend is not an accesory to have, she should learn that.
@@LinkOfLegendOfZelda It's important to remember that being a detective is her literal job -- It's not like she's traveling the world just to have fun. While it's of course important to communicate effectively with your romantic partner about your plans, it's not fair to Nancy to expect her to sacrifice her career for Ned's sake. Especially since what's upsetting him isn't the fact that Nancy always has to leave, but the fact that Ned (at least in his mind) never does anything as interesting as she does. He's unhappy with his own life, and Nancy sticking around in Riverside isn't going to change that. It's up to Ned to go out and have his own adventures, either with Nancy or on his own -- the problem isn't that Nancy leaves, but that Ned stays.
@@happyofme Well, it's true what you say. I know it is her job, but I think their problems go beyond that. She's very passionate about that and I get her job goes first. Everyone needs money to live, of course (and she likes it for the thrill too). But since Ned put a whole trip together (to which she agreed, I would guess), I get why he is getting kinda frustrated because it never seems to work out. It happens time and time again. The guy is feeling neglected and yes, I understand your point that he also is partial to blame because maybe his whole world only revolves around her, which isn't healthy too of course. I think they need to properly talk with each other to clarify what they both want and expect from this relationship going forward, because it is clear that their relationship has changed over the years and that they both have an other view on it. A long-distance relationship isn't easy and is not for everyone, that is for sure.
@@LinkOfLegendOfZeldaI remember thinking, as I watched Evelien and Seán Stream, that this Nancy and Ned subplot is completely unnecessary. Don’t get me wrong; I immensely enjoy watching both the Live Streams and TH-cam edited VODs! But I firmly believe that the Drew Devs created tension that does nothing except halt the flow of the story. They could easily have written phone conversations between the two of them during which they mention that whatever event Ned was planning happens _after_ Nancy’s trip. I’d love to know if anyone else feels this way. If not, of course I understand. But, to me, it’s a Nancy Drew Mystery, not a RomCom.
@@happyofme It's been a minute since I played the Nancy games myself so I may be wrong here, but if I recall correctly, Nancy doesn't often get paid to do this. It's usually either a favor or something she gets unintentionally wrapped up in. She's an "amateur detective" not in the sense that she's just starting out in her career, but in the sense that she doesn't do this as a profession. She's actually a college student still living at home with her dad. I think that's what makes this especially frustrating from Ned's perspective. It'd be different if she were doing this professionally and needed to solve these cases to earn money, keep up with bills, and build up a reputation/client base. But in reality, her detective work is more of a really intense hobby. A hobby that she often prioritizes over her relationships, romantic or otherwise.
@@yikes2540 when I was a kid, I remember reporters asking older couples how they kept their relationship going for so long. Most of them replied something akin to, "live every day like you're trying to win them over. The minute you settle into complacency, you smother the spark that binds you."
Same, especially as someone that grew up in bavaria, the mannerisms and accents when speaking english of some of the characters actually are quite spot on for a lot of people i've met, it really is amazing lol
oh my gosh, this is exactly what i needed today! hope everyone has a wonderful, productive day! don’t forget to drink water, brush your teeth, take your meds if you need, and take a break from your work/hobbies to stretch and take a walk (if you can! i know it’s really hot rn in a lot of the Americas)
It's Das Monster... of a comment! Here we go! :D - The little Japanese book thing you found on Nancy's desk before starting was an item in Shadow at the Water's Edge! And the little onigiri phone charm on the lamp was one that Yumi gave you. :) From this game onward, the "special edition" (pre-ordered) copies of the games had phone charms hidden around the environment that you could collect. Kind of a bummer that there's no way to get those versions of the games anymore. - This is the first game that has the "hint hotline" app on Nancy's phone! Instead of getting hints from friends, there's a weird, omnipotent app that Ned installed that can help you with the current tasks and even show you pictures. - The well has several throwback items in it, like that golden token thing from Waverly and the sheep doll from Ireland. This is also where a sort of crackship meme in the ND fandom came from: Nancy can say, "Oh, bucket, you always know what to bring me!" so people started shipping Nancy x bucket, lol. - When I played this game as a teenager, my mom was offended by the amount of cleavage Anja is showing. 🙄 - The book about monsters in the shop is (I think) the same one that the weird kid Jane in Blackmoor Manor has. Or it at least looks very similar. - Nancy is an absolutely terrible girlfriend. Imagine casually going to a different continent to deal with a "monster" without telling your significant other first! She and Ned need to work on their communication. - The Corn Cannoneer is standing in a cloud photography spot in Oklahoma and Fairy Trigger seems to be in front of Waverly Academy. - This game predates Raid Shadow Legends. Wild. - If you try to postpone playing Raid (because it's tedious as heck), Karl will eventually say something like, "Oh, did you say yes?" and when you say that no, you still don't want to play, he says something to the effect of, "Well, let's pretend you did say yes and play!" and you're forced into it. - When Markus tells you to call him and you get the water dumped on you, that was the game just needing a way to push you back to your bedroom. Maybe Lukas telepathically got Markus to help him with his prank. - If you tell Lukas that your new outfit is for the festival, he responds with, "It's so puffy... are you sure you're even in there?" which is hilarious. My mom had me make that conversation her ringtone for a while. - Ned does show up in the next game as a playable character! And we get to see a cartoony picture of him that Nancy has as his contact photo. - Renate has two chicken-scented markers in her purse. I have... questions. And concerns. - Sean asked if Renate's box is an Enigma, but we did actually get to use one of those in Danger By Design! - Would you say that the character you made for Raid is a... ringbearer? :D - The blue paper thing Renate dropped having "Else, Castle Finster" in the corner is what's supposed to indicate that it should be held over that book by Karl's room. - The security alert sounds like Nancy's voice actor! And man, when I first played this game, the first security alert made me *panic* and start zooming around the castle trying to figure out what to do. - If you ask Lukas what the signs used to be like, he talks about the goofy things they used to say before the more serious versions were put up. - Sonny Joon's resume references Salem (game 33), Egypt (26), Dread Isle (20), Carnivale (18), Minette (14), Colorado (27), a cruise (the cancelled Dossier game maybe?), and of course, Beech Hill museum (6). - If you ask Lukas about his "lawyer" then he basically says that it's what they always say on TV. "I'm not talkin' without my lawyer!" and such. - When Ned says he has a fun plan for you, Bess, and George, that's what game 25 is going to be about! If you talk to him about it enough, you get to suggest a team name. - For the Entkommen puzzle, the word can be started anywhere. The only thing that matters is having it spelled correctly and going clockwise. - If you find the scarf before the very end of the game, you can bring it to Renate. She tells you that it was *her* scarf and her sister was the little girl who went into the woods and never came back. Oof. - There's a panel with two locks in the secret tunnel. You can use two of the keys you found earlier in those locks and it gives you an Easter egg! That's the only purpose of that thing being there. - The long shot of the eyeball rolling was a "subtle" reminder that the trapdoor exists. - Nancy never gets to blow any glass, you just use the tools from the workshop for other stuff (digging in the forest, pulling the furnace lever, etc.). - The Dossier series is still fairly fun, I think! Very different vibes but there's still conversations, mystery, and puzzles. The second one especially has a puzzle that's quite fun and I think the game has an endless mode version of it. :) I'm so glad you (and Sean!) are having fun with these games! They're silly and don't always make a ton of sense, but I absolutely adore them. I'm selfishly extra excited for the next game because my picture is in it! hehe Stay sleuthy!
This satisfied all my nerdy curiosity lingering after watching!! And then some. 😊 Thank you! I wondered if Anja’s deception kept Jomny from getting the job. 🤔 I am way too entertained by the imagery of panicked zooming around the castle with the warning message. 😂😂😂 (Not relevant but I’m too lazy to comment separately: Renate Bliss and the many MANY other tiny callbacks - just the overall silliness - made this feel like spending time with goofy friends who don’t mind my terrible memes.)❤
I love how well Seán pronounces "Gott im Himmel" and "Was ist das" xD. As far as I can tell most people use miles aka Meilen instead of kilometers even though we don't use miles as unit of calculation. Can't wait for more Nancy shenanigans with Gab and Seán ❤️
I ADORE that its now a thing for you two to play nancy drew together. I cannot explain how excited I get when I see a new episode with both of you. I think its cause 1) you both are so good at figuring out different puzzles to each other, and 2) you bounce commentary and jokes off of each other so well, it really makes the whole experience so enjoyable.
I meeeeean, I do kind of understand Ned's frustration with Nancy... She leaves him behind, time and time again, always cancelling plans last minute to go hunt ghosts and ghouls while promising to make it up for him. Think about it, wouldn't you get upset if everytime you get excited and plan out a nice trip to spend quality time with you partner, they just up and pull the rug out from under you, leaving you in the dust for some strangers neither of you know? It's sad, really...
One thing I hope that Seán and Gab understand is that Ned and Nancy are a faithful and great couple, who sometimes have issues as, instead of being the highschool sweathearts they would normally be, Nancy's work often makes it a long-distance relationship.
Just some quick fact checking. This isn't Nancy's job. She does this as a hobby. They aren't high school sweethearts. She met him after she's already out of high school and he's already in college. Otherwise fully agree they're a great couple in the original books (I don't really consider any other versions canon).
@@happinesss2 I thought in the first books, both were in high school, my bad. And yes, I know that she's an amateur detective, which lets her get away with a lot of her illegal acts, but I used the term "work" to simplify the mindset of what Ned is going through.
As a German this is painful to watch with the over the top Germany accent but it's also great to see Sean back for another Nancy Drew game! Much more chaotic and fun than Gab playing by herself. And it's also fun to hear Gab trying to figure out German words, I always forget tha while dutch know basic German, they don't automatically understand German perfectly and would be able to read words like "Nachzehrer". Edit: I feel so called out by Gab saying most Dutch know german, but Germans don't know dutch lol. She's right of course, but similarly to her we're be able to figure out a lot of dutch words when they're close enough to german.
1:24:51 "Ned should become a throuple with the Hardy boys... and then there'd be three Hardy boys... actually... that's incest let's not do that" asjkjksdfisdlkf im fuckin crying
There's a fan theory that Karl simply met a half-brother, and the reason his father freaked out so much is because it was his affair child. Maybe the boy wasn't talking because he didn't know German! Of course he could also be a separated twin adopted, but I like the idea that Karl just never realised he stumbled on proof of his father's infidelity. Lots of fans are confused by the whole monster business and don't get why the game doesn't explain it, but the game has: every time something bad happens people like to shift blame upon the monster. I think that's why Karl says he doesn't want to think about what really happened to the young girls who got lost; there are lots of really unsavoury and brutal ways (and reasons!) to make a girl disappear. (Although something in the game does mention only 1 or 2 disappearances are mentioned in historical records.) It's mighty convenient to be able to abduct a girl, then have the blame fall on a monster so people don't go looking into you. It might even be more comforting to a town to think a monster did it than a respected or overly powerful member of the community. Renate might be intended to be an itinerant German from birth! People often think the Roma are the only itinerant Europeans around, but there's people from all over who were born in this way of life, or decided it was better for them. There's several groups of them in Germany alone, sadly I don't know any names by heart. They usually travel in groups though (like the kermis/travelling funfair/carnival!), but Renate embraced the storyteller life, so I suppose it's more practical for her to do her own thing.
just now watching this. two minutes in, and as someone who lived in germany until last week, i already fear for my life edit: 19 minutes in now. nancy saying goodbye in german followed by the gift shop lady responding in english is the most realistic thing they've could've done. the real american in germany experience
I love going from Gab’s Nancy Drew videos where she finds Ned and Nancy really cute together, to HalfMoonJoe’s where we actively root for Nancy to break up with Ned
I was honestly surprised by the hate in his videos. I prefer gabs but watched hers often and sometimes want something different but was really surprised by like the level of vitriol and hatred towards Ned in his videos... I've seen this elsewhere too like some people just go overboard hating on Ned and I do not get it. It's not that deep...
I absolutely adore these videos with you and Sean together! You two are so fecking CUTE, especially when you keep making each other giggle with your commentary and jokes.
I don't know why this game in particular was so funny to me. Every Nancy game has some humor sprinkled around it, but the jokes on this one were right up my alley!
I have a 600+ page tome of the roughly translated stories. From the birds singing about the step-sister's life essence in Cinderella's shoes, to Thousand-Furs putting her golden ring in the king's soup, I love all of these stories, even if they are very dark and well, grim.
Ok these Nancy videos are now my mental health videos. I've had like 3 shifts in a row where I'm in tears afterwards so I just curl up on the couch and put these on.
LOVING these chill Nancy Drew games. I recently found the playlist with all of them and it’s become my favorite thing to watch at the end of the night before bed. ❤
How wonderful! I just finished binge watching your ND gameplays yesterday and was about to rewatch The Trail of the Twister bc I love your vids with Sean. Your upload arrived just in time to start my baking. ❤❤❤
Hell yea, another Nancy Drew adventure with good old Gab and Jack ❤ 1 hour in and I just realised what is weird about Ned arguing with her in the beginning, the fact that the main issue is Nancy going on adventures and leaving him alone at home? Don’t get me wrong, it’s understandable. But I feel like the main issue is the fact that Nancy is going on these adventures.. and putting herself in danger. Literally the amount of times that she has been in danger of potentially *dying* and whatnot is quite concerning. I feel like that should’ve been addressed by him rather than making it sound like she was going on a fun safe trip or whatever. But hey this is only an hour in so I guess we’ll see
In the books that's usually what he talks about, he's actually a really good boyfriend in the books, but I guess the game makers needed to add drama or something 🙄
I could also understand him being upset if she is constantly cancelling their plans to be involved in things she doesn't have to be involved in. He could see it as her choosing her mysteries over him. And I agree, he's very different in the books. Worried about her, but super supportive. Even more so when the other two guys help out (for some reason I can't remember their names right now, but the ones that go with Bess and George)
awe man i really love sean being an addition to the nancy drew games but i usually watch this at midnight when it comes out so its a good video for falling asleep (i rewatch these alright) but seans high pitch voice wakes me up sometimes lol love it tho! sean is like the subway surfer gameplay meme so you can focus and not fall asleep
I was hoping the next one was coming out soon! Been craving a new Nancy Drew gameplay. Also, I absolutely ADORE that Sean is joining you for these. You guys make an awesome team, and he is so cute watching you solve the puzzles! He gets so happy and is in awe when you do them so quick! :D
Gab and Sean playing Nancy Drew games together reminds me so much of playing them with my older siblings as a kid, especially the sheer panic when Gab walked away and Markus called. Thanks for the nostalgia and the great content as always ❤️
I like how gab says it was Renata when we've seen a copy of Markus Email (proving of attempt of forgery) and the culprit going into the woods (which explanation was not found out aside from the monster exposed) that indicates that its not Renata xD.
I teach piano, and I like telling kids the bass clef lines are "Good Burritos Don't Fall Apart", and the treble lines are "Every Good Burger Deserves Fries".
The way the old lady points so crookedly, is the same way my youngest (step)brother would point to indicate that the thing was around a corner. Stepdad: " Marius, where did you put the flashlight after you used it last time?" Marius: *points crookedly* "It's over there!" Stepdad: *confused* *points in a crooked finger* "over there??" Marius: " yeah! you have to go around the corner and in to the kitchen. It is on the counter corner :D " After that time, it's become a customary way of pointing at stuff around a wall or corner XD
The character writing in this one was so funny! If the next one really does have Ned and the home crew in it I hope you guys play it together again, your jokes about them in this stream were rly entertaining
Super sweet that both Sean and Gab are into these games! Unpopular Opinion: Though I would have liked it if Sean kept some side comments away. Nancy Drew has a LOT of voice acting and a lot of story telling in that voice acting. Some of that is missed whenever Sean pulls out a funny comment or zinger. It's part of his job of course! But there were times that I wish he would just keep the comments until after the voice actor spoke :) Ahhh the wonders of ADHD (spoken by a diagnosed ADHD person lol)
To be fair, Gab also has a habit of talking over important dialogue and then immediately going back to the game and wondering what she's supposed to be doing or wondering how Nancy knew something. The pitfalls of being an interactive streamer I guess.
My mom introduced me to the Nancy Drew games and we used to play together ALL the time, just like you and Seán. ❤ Its so addicting to joke around and become so immersed in the world with a loved one.
As a German, this video is double the funny lol. German can be so ridiculous, especially when you're watching Gab and Sean try to stay focused on the detective game and failing because they're giggling abt the funny lil words XD Ps: the original Grimm fairytales are insane, we as kids just hear these tales and think nothing of it, but they're really brutal, horses getting beheaded, kids being made into dog food etc. They made a children's TV show out of those... yeah, we Schnitzelpeople are weirdos lol
In the board game, in the first hour, the cards had numbers in the middle the upper half. If there is a card with 5/7 you go forward 5 when you win and backwards 7 when you lose
I love when both ya'll play Nancy games! I love how Sean's German accent is just like the 3 pigs from Shrek now I can't stop picturing it! Did anyone notice that Anja's accent sounds just like Teri Garr's accent from Young Frankenstein? 😂 I love it
The whole drama between Nancy and Ned makes me think about the graphic novel that came out "The Death of Nancy Drew". (Spoilers) In the novel, you find out that Nancy had a fling with the Hardy boys (at separate times) and Ned could never handle it. Ned ends up running for governor and used his position of power to basically cause Nancy's death. Nancy foils the plot and comes back to cause Ned's downfall and then ends up with one of the Hardy Boys.
I am currently suffering from a recurrent uti and I’ve been so depressed but honestly watching you both play this has made me smile and cheered me up ❤ I love your content guys ❤
That Lonely Island lyric is how I learned about Aaron Burr/Hamilton back in high school and you couldn’t show me a more lyrically genius line than ‘ticket buying, what we're handling/you can call us Aaron Burr/from the way we're dropping Hamiltons’
This is so much my 2 world's colliding. When I stumbled on this channel for Nancy Drew videos, I had no idea Jack would be experiencing them as well. Thankyou for fulfilling my nostalgia in multiple ways!!
Not even 20 minutes into the video and the dynamic duo already has me trying not to wake my roommate by laughing! You need to include Sean in more videos! You two jut have the perfect chemistry XD
I just want to say thank you guys for the Nancy content!! I'm autistic and Nancy Drew is one of my special interest, funnily enough, because Gab playing the games. It brings me so much joy that you guys are continuing playing!!
I have watched this as bits and pieces because I tend to fall asleep while watching, and that kid is something else, first I liked him, and then I hated him, then I loved him. He is such a good character
I missed the stream nooooo! I'm so beyond happy and excited to see that Sean is now joining you for Nancy games! Even getting into it with writing notes and solving puzzles! The dream team is back! 😊❤
I always find it so wholesome when Seán spends half the time making Gab laugh.
Gab saying nothing to make him laugh makes me so happy, like her naming her save files.
The banter is just so cute! Such a wholesome couple!
I find it hilarious and adorable that you've managed to rope Sean into liking Nancy games.
Same! It’s amazing XD
I just think he loves spending time with Gab more than he loves Nancy
I am LOVING the fact that Sean has decided to join her for the Nancy Drew games.
Yes!! Me too
Me as well, I get to see both my favourite TH-camrs playing one of my favourite game series, can't be any better
i dont think he will join another ND after this one, he said it himself bcs of scheduling and time
I love it both ways! But this one was particularly good!
agreed!! i feel like it’s something Sean would never play on his own channel but would still love
I loved Sean’s panic when Marcus called and gab wasn’t there 😆

30% Shenanigans, 20% Seán flirting with Gab, and 50% gameplay.

- When Markus tells you to call him and you get the water dumped on you, that was the game just needing a way to push you back to your bedroom. Maybe Lukas telepathically got Markus to help him with his prank.
- If you tell Lukas that your new outfit is for the festival, he responds with, "It's so puffy... are you sure you're even in there?" which is hilarious. My mom had me make that conversation her ringtone for a while.
- Ned does show up in the next game as a playable character! And we get to see a cartoony picture of him that Nancy has as his contact photo.
- Renate has two chicken-scented markers in her purse. I have... questions. And concerns.
- Sean asked if Renate's box is an Enigma, but we did actually get to use one of those in Danger By Design!
- Would you say that the character you made for Raid is a... ringbearer? :D
- The blue paper thing Renate dropped having "Else, Castle Finster" in the corner is what's supposed to indicate that it should be held over that book by Karl's room.
- The security alert sounds like Nancy's voice actor! And man, when I first played this game, the first security alert made me *panic* and start zooming around the castle trying to figure out what to do.
- If you ask Lukas what the signs used to be like, he talks about the goofy things they used to say before the more serious versions were put up.
- Sonny Joon's resume references Salem (game 33), Egypt (26), Dread Isle (20), Carnivale (18), Minette (14), Colorado (27), a cruise (the cancelled Dossier game maybe?), and of course, Beech Hill museum (6).
- If you ask Lukas about his "lawyer" then he basically says that it's what they always say on TV. "I'm not talkin' without my lawyer!" and such.
- When Ned says he has a fun plan for you, Bess, and George, that's what game 25 is going to be about! If you talk to him about it enough, you get to suggest a team name.
- For the Entkommen puzzle, the word can be started anywhere. The only thing that matters is having it spelled correctly and going clockwise.
- If you find the scarf before the very end of the game, you can bring it to Renate. She tells you that it was *her* scarf and her sister was the little girl who went into the woods and never came back. Oof.
- There's a panel with two locks in the secret tunnel. You can use two of the keys you found earlier in those locks and it gives you an Easter egg! That's the only purpose of that thing being there.
- The long shot of the eyeball rolling was a "subtle" reminder that the trapdoor exists.
- Nancy never gets to blow any glass, you just use the tools from the workshop for other stuff (digging in the forest, pulling the furnace lever, etc.).
- The Dossier series is still fairly fun, I think! Very different vibes but there's still conversations, mystery, and puzzles. The second one especially has a puzzle that's quite fun and I think the game has an endless mode version of it. :)
I'm so glad you (and Sean!) are having fun with these games! They're silly and don't always make a ton of sense, but I absolutely adore them. I'm selfishly extra excited for the next game because my picture is in it! hehe
Stay sleuthy!
Thanks for all the cool facts!
This satisfied all my nerdy curiosity lingering after watching!! And then some. 😊 Thank you!
I wondered if Anja’s deception kept Jomny from getting the job. 🤔
I am way too entertained by the imagery of panicked zooming around the castle with the warning message. 😂😂😂
(Not relevant but I’m too lazy to comment separately: Renate Bliss and the many MANY other tiny callbacks - just the overall silliness - made this feel like spending time with goofy friends who don’t mind my terrible memes.)❤
I was sad they didn’t get to have that conversation with Renata. Thanks for all of the facts
thank you!! such a cool comment!
I love how well Seán pronounces "Gott im Himmel" and "Was ist das" xD. As far as I can tell most people use miles aka Meilen instead of kilometers even though we don't use miles as unit of calculation. Can't wait for more Nancy shenanigans with Gab and Seán ❤️
I'm thinking that he has been playing the new amnesia game and was quoting a guy in it.
I ADORE that its now a thing for you two to play nancy drew together. I cannot explain how excited I get when I see a new episode with both of you. I think its cause 1) you both are so good at figuring out different puzzles to each other, and 2) you bounce commentary and jokes off of each other so well, it really makes the whole experience so enjoyable.
This was apparently the last Nancy Drew game he was planning on joining.
I love how Sean actually knows what Frankstein is about! I can tell by how he talked about the monster in the beginning
Frank Stein? Lol
@@maddieb.4282 its the name he goes by.
Almost 5 hours of Nancy, Gab and Sean 🥹🥹wooooooo
I love the Gab and Sean combo during nancy games! it gives me such good vibes
Ikr, this is my new favorite genre of videos 🥺✨️
Glad Sean didn’t let his experience w the last game completely turn him off from playing another one bc this one seems so much more fun
The writing and the animations on Lukas are adorable. He's just a little guy
I meeeeean, I do kind of understand Ned's frustration with Nancy... She leaves him behind, time and time again, always cancelling plans last minute to go hunt ghosts and ghouls while promising to make it up for him.
Think about it, wouldn't you get upset if everytime you get excited and plan out a nice trip to spend quality time with you partner, they just up and pull the rug out from under you, leaving you in the dust for some strangers neither of you know?
It's sad, really...
Seán: Where tf is everybody?
Gab: I mean, it's nighttime, they're 'sleep.
(shortly afterwards)
Gab: Where is everyone?
Yay more Seàn and Gab playing Nancy Drew!! 🎉🥰
One thing I hope that Seán and Gab understand is that Ned and Nancy are a faithful and great couple, who sometimes have issues as, instead of being the highschool sweathearts they would normally be, Nancy's work often makes it a long-distance relationship.
Just some quick fact checking. This isn't Nancy's job. She does this as a hobby. They aren't high school sweethearts. She met him after she's already out of high school and he's already in college. Otherwise fully agree they're a great couple in the original books (I don't really consider any other versions canon).
@@happinesss2 I thought in the first books, both were in high school, my bad.
And yes, I know that she's an amateur detective, which lets her get away with a lot of her illegal acts, but I used the term "work" to simplify the mindset of what Ned is going through.
Words cannot express how pleased I am that they both remember and still giggle at my Gator Patronus joke 🤣❤️
You're a comedic genius
@@larabanana6949 🙈💖
wait, it was your joke?
@@user-xb5xr8ib8b it was, I am emmerz93 on twitch!❤️
These characters are fucking perfection. I have never laughed as hard at any Nancy Drew game more than this one.
As a German this is painful to watch with the over the top Germany accent but it's also great to see Sean back for another Nancy Drew game! Much more chaotic and fun than Gab playing by herself. And it's also fun to hear Gab trying to figure out German words, I always forget tha while dutch know basic German, they don't automatically understand German perfectly and would be able to read words like "Nachzehrer".
Edit: I feel so called out by Gab saying most Dutch know german, but Germans don't know dutch lol. She's right of course, but similarly to her we're be able to figure out a lot of dutch words when they're close enough to german.
1:24:51 "Ned should become a throuple with the Hardy boys... and then there'd be three Hardy boys... actually... that's incest let's not do that" asjkjksdfisdlkf im fuckin crying
There's a fan theory that Karl simply met a half-brother, and the reason his father freaked out so much is because it was his affair child. Maybe the boy wasn't talking because he didn't know German! Of course he could also be a separated twin adopted, but I like the idea that Karl just never realised he stumbled on proof of his father's infidelity.
Lots of fans are confused by the whole monster business and don't get why the game doesn't explain it, but the game has: every time something bad happens people like to shift blame upon the monster. I think that's why Karl says he doesn't want to think about what really happened to the young girls who got lost; there are lots of really unsavoury and brutal ways (and reasons!) to make a girl disappear. (Although something in the game does mention only 1 or 2 disappearances are mentioned in historical records.)
It's mighty convenient to be able to abduct a girl, then have the blame fall on a monster so people don't go looking into you. It might even be more comforting to a town to think a monster did it than a respected or overly powerful member of the community.
Renate might be intended to be an itinerant German from birth! People often think the Roma are the only itinerant Europeans around, but there's people from all over who were born in this way of life, or decided it was better for them. There's several groups of them in Germany alone, sadly I don't know any names by heart. They usually travel in groups though (like the kermis/travelling funfair/carnival!), but Renate embraced the storyteller life, so I suppose it's more practical for her to do her own thing.
just now watching this. two minutes in, and as someone who lived in germany until last week, i already fear for my life
edit: 19 minutes in now. nancy saying goodbye in german followed by the gift shop lady responding in english is the most realistic thing they've could've done. the real american in germany experience
Sean asking Eveline “so you enjoy this? What’s that like?” And then Eveline just getting back into focus mode 😂
I love going from Gab’s Nancy Drew videos where she finds Ned and Nancy really cute together, to HalfMoonJoe’s where we actively root for Nancy to break up with Ned
I was honestly surprised by the hate in his videos. I prefer gabs but watched hers often and sometimes want something different but was really surprised by like the level of vitriol and hatred towards Ned in his videos... I've seen this elsewhere too like some people just go overboard hating on Ned and I do not get it. It's not that deep...
I've never been a Ned x Nancy fan (not anything he's done and I'm usually on his side when they fight) cuz I'm a huge Nancy x Frank fan ❤
I absolutely adore these Nancy play throughs 💗 Sean is a hilarious addition to Evelien’s delightful personality! Two peas 🫛 in a pod 💗
I absolutely adore these videos with you and Sean together! You two are so fecking CUTE, especially when you keep making each other giggle with your commentary and jokes.
I love how invested you've both gotten into these games! Please keep them coming! ♥
I don't know why this game in particular was so funny to me. Every Nancy game has some humor sprinkled around it, but the jokes on this one were right up my alley!
1:34:00 the way Sean immediately looked at gab when she got that sudden bout of anxiety from Ned on the phone 😍
Nancy drew has been my favorite game since I was a child! I love watching you play and enjoy them as much as I do!!!
I’m sad they missed the conversation with Renate about the scarf if you show her before the end game 😢 This game is one of the best!
I have a 600+ page tome of the roughly translated stories. From the birds singing about the step-sister's life essence in Cinderella's shoes, to Thousand-Furs putting her golden ring in the king's soup, I love all of these stories, even if they are very dark and well, grim.
It makes my day every time I see Sean sitting in on another Nancy Drew game 🥹
Sean being super into the Nancy games adds 10 years onto my lifespan 😭
Yay Evelyn and Sean playing Nancy. Best day ever.❤❤❤
Ok these Nancy videos are now my mental health videos. I've had like 3 shifts in a row where I'm in tears afterwards so I just curl up on the couch and put these on.
Nancy: Haven't done that.
Gabs: Oh, we haven't done that yet?!
Nancy: H a v e n' t d o n e t h a t.
LOVING these chill Nancy Drew games. I recently found the playlist with all of them and it’s become my favorite thing to watch at the end of the night before bed. ❤
How wonderful! I just finished binge watching your ND gameplays yesterday and was about to rewatch The Trail of the Twister bc I love your vids with Sean. Your upload arrived just in time to start my baking. ❤❤❤
ME TOO AHHH IT'S FATE
These games give me such a specific nostalgia even if I haven't played them before. I'm so glad you and Sean are enjoying them!!
Hell yea, another Nancy Drew adventure with good old Gab and Jack ❤
1 hour in and I just realised what is weird about Ned arguing with her in the beginning, the fact that the main issue is Nancy going on adventures and leaving him alone at home? Don’t get me wrong, it’s understandable.
But I feel like the main issue is the fact that Nancy is going on these adventures.. and putting herself in danger. Literally the amount of times that she has been in danger of potentially *dying* and whatnot is quite concerning. I feel like that should’ve been addressed by him rather than making it sound like she was going on a fun safe trip or whatever. But hey this is only an hour in so I guess we’ll see
In the books that's usually what he talks about, he's actually a really good boyfriend in the books, but I guess the game makers needed to add drama or something 🙄
I could also understand him being upset if she is constantly cancelling their plans to be involved in things she doesn't have to be involved in. He could see it as her choosing her mysteries over him. And I agree, he's very different in the books. Worried about her, but super supportive. Even more so when the other two guys help out (for some reason I can't remember their names right now, but the ones that go with Bess and George)
@@void9662 Frank and Joe Hardy?
@@JiangGo1998 no, Ned's two college friends in the books. Burt and Dave, I think.
@@void9662 I haven't read the books.
Are they good?
you and Sean are hilarious together, and I'm glad you're both having so much fun with Nancy, cause that means I'M having fun with Nancy!
1:06:39 LOL Sean is like when your mom leaves you at checkout with the groceries.
an absolute banger to listen to while i rest before work! i love seán being in these sm ❤
I always learned the scale as "Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge, and he eats it with his FACE"
Same here!
not to age and place myself but i learned "Even George Bush Drives Fast" lol
So glad to have caught this live!!! Definitely one of the funniest playthroughs so far!
awe man i really love sean being an addition to the nancy drew games but i usually watch this at midnight when it comes out so its a good video for falling asleep (i rewatch these alright) but seans high pitch voice wakes me up sometimes lol love it tho! sean is like the subway surfer gameplay meme so you can focus and not fall asleep
as a german person, this is interesting to watch lol cant wait to finish it!!
The rap Sean came up with at the end was great 😂 love this Nancy drew duo
Love the window editing during the Ned call!!
Call Starts @ 22:58
I was hoping the next one was coming out soon! Been craving a new Nancy Drew gameplay. Also, I absolutely ADORE that Sean is joining you for these. You guys make an awesome team, and he is so cute watching you solve the puzzles! He gets so happy and is in awe when you do them so quick! :D
"So it's like Wordle"... IT'S MASTERMIND! It's one of my favourite games tbh!
Mastermind was a childhood favourite of mine!!
I remember this game from my home school group when I was a kid. Lots of puzzles, games, and German Chocolate Sweets.
You guys are such a wholesome team. Sean is here for pop culture references and quick fingers, and Gabs is of course the brains of the operation.
2:26:45 “so you enjoy this? What’s that like?” Sean and me think alike 😂
I love that the ONLY time Sean used "das" correctly was when saying "das monster" 😂
I love that Sean is playing with you too! Love it!
I’m gonna have to go back and rewatch all the let’s plays that you’ve done with Nancy Drew. ❤❤
Gab and Sean playing Nancy Drew games together reminds me so much of playing them with my older siblings as a kid, especially the sheer panic when Gab walked away and Markus called. Thanks for the nostalgia and the great content as always ❤️
I like how gab says it was Renata when we've seen a copy of Markus Email (proving of attempt of forgery) and the culprit going into the woods (which explanation was not found out aside from the monster exposed) that indicates that its not Renata xD.
“We already have one” is a line from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the French claimed they “already had one”
Yes 👏🏼 Love when Gab and Jack play Nancy Drew together. One of my favourite game and with this two you know it’s gonna be a good 4 hours.☺️👍🏼
We need Sean's Nancy song as a permanent thing from now on. 😂 Like a theme song. It was so good 😂
This video could not have come at a better time. It is really helping me get through my 12 hour road trip today.
Hope it’s going well 🙃
I teach piano, and I like telling kids the bass clef lines are "Good Burritos Don't Fall Apart", and the treble lines are "Every Good Burger Deserves Fries".
The way the old lady points so crookedly, is the same way my youngest (step)brother would point to indicate that the thing was around a corner.
Stepdad: " Marius, where did you put the flashlight after you used it last time?"
Marius: *points crookedly* "It's over there!"
Stepdad: *confused* *points in a crooked finger* "over there??"
Marius: " yeah! you have to go around the corner and in to the kitchen. It is on the counter corner :D "
After that time, it's become a customary way of pointing at stuff around a wall or corner XD
I personally feel like ned's frustration was completely justified, nancy is kind of a terrible girlfriend to ned
The character writing in this one was so funny! If the next one really does have Ned and the home crew in it I hope you guys play it together again, your jokes about them in this stream were rly entertaining
Super sweet that both Sean and Gab are into these games!
Unpopular Opinion:
Though I would have liked it if Sean kept some side comments away. Nancy Drew has a LOT of voice acting and a lot of story telling in that voice acting. Some of that is missed whenever Sean pulls out a funny comment or zinger. It's part of his job of course! But there were times that I wish he would just keep the comments until after the voice actor spoke :)
Ahhh the wonders of ADHD (spoken by a diagnosed ADHD person lol)
To be fair, Gab also has a habit of talking over important dialogue and then immediately going back to the game and wondering what she's supposed to be doing or wondering how Nancy knew something. The pitfalls of being an interactive streamer I guess.
Poor Ned. Nancy asking if he's really upset? Maybe she needs to do some sleuthing in her own relationship.
My mom introduced me to the Nancy Drew games and we used to play together ALL the time, just like you and Seán. ❤ Its so addicting to joke around and become so immersed in the world with a loved one.
As a German, this video is double the funny lol. German can be so ridiculous, especially when you're watching Gab and Sean try to stay focused on the detective game and failing because they're giggling abt the funny lil words XD
Ps: the original Grimm fairytales are insane, we as kids just hear these tales and think nothing of it, but they're really brutal, horses getting beheaded, kids being made into dog food etc. They made a children's TV show out of those... yeah, we Schnitzelpeople are weirdos lol
In the board game, in the first hour, the cards had numbers in the middle the upper half. If there is a card with 5/7 you go forward 5 when you win and backwards 7 when you lose
I love when both ya'll play Nancy games! I love how Sean's German accent is just like the 3 pigs from Shrek now I can't stop picturing it! Did anyone notice that Anja's accent sounds just like Teri Garr's accent from Young Frankenstein? 😂 I love it
The whole drama between Nancy and Ned makes me think about the graphic novel that came out "The Death of Nancy Drew". (Spoilers)
In the novel, you find out that Nancy had a fling with the Hardy boys (at separate times) and Ned could never handle it. Ned ends up running for governor and used his position of power to basically cause Nancy's death. Nancy foils the plot and comes back to cause Ned's downfall and then ends up with one of the Hardy Boys.
OMG I needed this comfort after a hell of a week! Thanks you two!❤
I am so happy you two are playing these together it's such a treat!!
I am currently suffering from a recurrent uti and I’ve been so depressed but honestly watching you both play this has made me smile and cheered me up ❤
I love your content guys ❤
That Lonely Island lyric is how I learned about Aaron Burr/Hamilton back in high school and you couldn’t show me a more lyrically genius line than ‘ticket buying, what we're handling/you can call us Aaron Burr/from the way we're dropping Hamiltons’
Ok, Lukas is officially my favorite character in all the Nancy Drew games xD
This is so much my 2 world's colliding. When I stumbled on this channel for Nancy Drew videos, I had no idea Jack would be experiencing them as well. Thankyou for fulfilling my nostalgia in multiple ways!!
Not even 20 minutes into the video and the dynamic duo already has me trying not to wake my roommate by laughing! You need to include Sean in more videos! You two jut have the perfect chemistry XD
"There should be one where Nancy goes to a Pride festival"
Nancy, in game: *"STILL HAVE TO DO THAT"*
I love seeing Sean play with Gab
It's very interesting to have Sean along with you in these Nancy Drew videos. I can imagine it took some convincing for him to get hooked on it.
Why would you think that? He’s open minded and a good partner so maybe not
I just want to say thank you guys for the Nancy content!! I'm autistic and Nancy Drew is one of my special interest, funnily enough, because Gab playing the games. It brings me so much joy that you guys are continuing playing!!
Also speaking of Nancy and pride, I've been re-writing it for fun and Nancy is trans and bi!
I’m sick in bed with COVID and seeing this notification pop up made me so happy. perfect timing 💖
I love it when you guys play Nancy Drew together! Such a fun watch.
I legit screamed when I saw a Nancy game and it was both of y'all. Literally so fun watching you guys play together
1:39:22 that coin sound is the purchase sound from the call of duty zombie games
I have watched this as bits and pieces because I tend to fall asleep while watching, and that kid is something else, first I liked him, and then I hated him, then I loved him. He is such a good character
It is fun to come back and watch this after getting into witchcraft. I just recently celebrated Beltane.
I missed the stream nooooo! I'm so beyond happy and excited to see that Sean is now joining you for Nancy games! Even getting into it with writing notes and solving puzzles! The dream team is back! 😊❤
