      Like I said, he talks in every game including Codename 47. You can look up "Codename 47 cutscenes" and find plenty of clips where he talks, 47's dialogue is important in all of the games.

      For some reason all these gaming channels feel like the person playing has never played a video game before, it's unreal. MKFireAndIce is probably the most famous. He can spend up to an hour stuck on a simple problem, and plays with the most twitchy mouse ever. Makes gameplay videos give you epilepsy even if you don't have epilepsy, it's SO bad, and he's such a brainlet. But they all load their videos with a million ads, which reveals their motivation I guess.

    I like your videos for a few reasons, but the main one being: You always seem to find the games hidden behind the mountains of marketing ads. You always find interesting games that never seem to end up on the front-page, and you always show those games for what they are, what people will see them as. You always seem to play the most interesting games even when they were hidden deep underneath the line of popular games and ads. Good luck with your next one, and I hope you have as much fun playing as I do watching.

    This game does look quite promising in my opinion. I especially love the writing and voice acting for the Doctor. I do wish the shadows had more to them than just "ooh spooky lava" maybe some supernatural aspect that gradually evolves as you progress through the levels. Overall though great looking adventure puzzle game.

    “Every achievement has its kinks” yes turning every shadow into an anomaly that devours any and all organic material definitely qualifies as “kink”

      Yeezy Sneezy saying things like that can make you come off as insensitive or even racist.
