Imagine you were on the Titanic, you board on the D deck, your cabin is down on E deck and you basically don't ever need to go up the A or Boat deck. So you never get to see the dome or the clock.
@@3UZFE Wireless messages was not handed over in the marchoni room. As a passenger they had to be handed over and paid at the office on c deck. They had pipes for moving the papers up and down from marchoni room to c deck.
I'm pretty sure you would still at some point want to go to the Lounge, Smoking Room or Reading & Writing Room on A-Deck. So you would've had to use the Grand Staircase and see the clock and dome from the A-Deck landing. Also you would've needed to go up to the Boat Deck during the sinking, unless you use the smaller staircases on the Promenade that went up to the Boat Deck.
I can still smell the fresh paint, the beds that had never been slept in and the fresh china that had never been used. She was the ship of dreams. She truly was.
I have heard on a few other docs that the interior designs in the Titanic and Olympic were not really innovative; Ken Marschall even goes as far as to say that they were "quite pedestrian". They were based on those of older ships and were elaborated on so they were according to one of the narrators "evolutionary, not revolutionary". I still like the interiors of both ships though
Excellent video! It really helps people grasp the sheer amount of detail built into this beautiful space. If I were on the ship I would feel like I was in a palace.
I know it's unwise and unecessary to tempt fate, but I think it would be amazing to stay in a hotel that was decorated like the interior of Titanic. I just want to walk down that grand staircase! 😊
IRL (In Real Life) thousands of hours of work from thousands of artisans, creating an eye-opening marvel out of wood, brass and plaster, perfect down to the last tack...all just to rot at the bottom of the oggin. Such is crazy life such is crazy death. THG is going to be memorable!
I played the demo and really liked it! I donated $60 and will donate more later. It would be great if an official camera mode was added that would allow you to see the interior of the Titanic and the entire Titanic sailing.
Thank You for this amazingly beautiful and informative video !! I’ve travelled on the current day Cunard Queen Elizabeth and Victoria.The incredibly elegant wood panelling used on both of those ships truly amazed and delighted me ! But of course the wood work on the Titanic arises to a whole different level ! Such a gorgeous ocean liner that will astound many generations to come ! Such was the artful beauty of the Victorian and Edwardian Eras. Once again thank you for all the hard work and dedication that went into making this fantastic video 👍🇬🇧😊🇺🇸
Finally i remember the "TitanicClock" Chanels video about the origins of the Clock, but i was wondering where the influences for the rest of ship came from! please more areas!
I've always found the signage a bit odd on Titanic. There are certain rooms that have no apparent signage, like the gymnasium. I might have also expected some wall signage around telling you what direction/deck certain things are. I guess the passengers must have had to ask staff for directions as I doubt they were given a map?
On the walls of stateroom corridors were deck plans which showed the layout of which deck you were on. It probably still wasn't informative enough, though.
I think the decorative inspiration for the GSC primarily came from the Cassiobury Park staircase now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, purchased in 1922. [Interesting video, Matt, but less 'background' music please - it was really intrusive, especially over 25 minutes.]
I have no idea what a DM is or how to send one... I have played the latest 401 demo and with the new music... wow it blew my mind. now to everyone who can, play titanic adventure out of time while having the beautiful music from demo 401. absolutely beautiful
18:45 That's the painting that everybody thought it was on Britannic.When it was supposed to be an ocean liner it was supposed to replace the clock and that's the painting on the white frame
I was going to talk about that at the end of this video, but it would have made this even longer. So hopefully we'll bring it up in another video someday. But most likely a lot of the GSC was ripped apart by the forces of water during the descent down, and much was ejected aft when the bow hit the sea floor. The candelabra and several wrought iron inserts are right aft of the bow (almost touching the bow.) It's just not as simple as "it was wood so it floated out." Steelwork for what's left of the staircase is still hanging in the wreck, in the well, it's just not filmed very well (excuse the pun.)
@@matthewdewinkeleer3384 I've seen video of the steel framework at the lower end of the staircase, but it didn't seem to account for the upper deck sections. I wish someone would do a more thorough exploration of that area to see if there's more remnants in the well.
@@ctg6734James Cameron needs to do another dive with the extraordinary cameras we now have and release it to the public in HD. The hole where the Grand Staircase was looks so creepy, and I know what you mean about the lack of steel at the very bottom. Perhaps the rest is covered in more debris?
Actually, I think there’s a lot of evidence indicating that the grand staircase might have floated out. Despite how strong and unique the design of the Titanic’s grand staircase was, many simulations and experiments show that the grand staircase could have floated out because of its buoyant wood. Even 2nd officer Charles Lightoller saw parts of the grand staircase when the Carpathia returned to the Titanic wreck sight.
Reckon THG will ever create a Brittanic Walkthrough as done with Titanic? Perhaps in her two layouts, as hospital ship and her intended layout as gigantic?

Hello, everyone! How are you? First of all, I would like to thank you for your magnificent work. I am a big fan! I would like to make a suggestion: how about making some decorative items from the game available for 3D printing? I don't know how to model in 3D, but I really want to print the cherub from the grand staircase of the Titanic. Thank you and keep up the excellent work!
The Grand Staircase of the Titanic "popped out" due to different water pressures inside and outside of the ship during the sinking. As the ship sank, the outside water pressure at an example of say, 20m depth would be given by: P⁰= 1000kg/m³×9.81m/s² X 20m= 196,200Pa
Inside, if we use an exanple depth of 10m: 1000kg/m³ ×9.81m/s² ×10m=98,100Pa The pressure difference denoted by (Δ𝑃) [ΔP=P outside −P inside] =196,200Pa−98,100Pa=98,100Pa (Pascals) If this acted on an area of 50 m²: F=ΔP×A=98,100Pa×50m² =4,905,000N Absolutely enough force to make that staircase pop like a Champagne cork and rip itself to bits especially as the grand ship went down.
I don't know about science, but like we said, it certainly was damaged on the way down. Most of it seems to have been blown out and aft after it landed in the mud. But there are entire rooms of solid wood still at the bottom of the sea on Titanic attached to their steel framework, which did pop up like a cork. Would the staircase wood, which was mixed with wrought iron, and built *around* a solid (during the sinking) steel framework of columns and girders, fight its way up?
I always wondered if the wood panels in the titanic staircase were really bright orange as shown in the demo or darker brown as described by many and used in many reproductions and renders
I appreciate the not so subtle dig at James Cameron. "This beauty was too strong to simply break up and float out upwards. It was stronger than a movie set."
I've read a comment which says the first class elevators were used very frequently and it is just a lie of a Cunard agent who travelled on Olympic or maybe on Titanic who tried to justify the placement in the middle of the staircase of the Lusitania which was an optical misplacement. I mean the expanded the elevator up to the boatdeck on Britannic and I mean stretching from E to A-Deck there were a vast amount of cabins forward going to the bow as well. So I assume those elevators were in fact well used and a central hub.
I still believe that much of the grand staircase floated up and out of the ship I know your argument is that it couldn't have because it was a metal frame encased in wood but the thing is James Cameron searched for the wrought iron and other decorative elements of the grand staircase at the bottom and he couldn't find anything, yet all the pillars around the Grand Staircase remained in mostly intact. I think the fact that it was encased in wood and it was hit with such tremendous force when the dome imploded, all that water could have ripped up the staircase and floated it right out.
I don't agree with your statement that the general populace would be able to identify the Titanic if asked to do so, at least certainly here in Great Britain the majority of us could identify it. Other countries, I'm not so sure. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say I'm sure almost everyone on earth knows about the Titanic when they get to a certain age.
I disagree with that statement as well. It sounded quite pretentious. The Cameron film’s explosive popularity alone would cause the average person to correctly identify Titanic as long as you don’t also include Olympic in the lineup.
@@tylerdaniel8956 Not really, you always see lots of people point to any 4-funneled Ocean Liner and just say "Le titanic!!!!" Even though its from different companies or even different eras. Pictures of Lusitania and depictions of her sinking get *veeery* mixed up for the Titanic.
Any comments alluding to a lack of effort or ambition to release the finished game exude pure ignorance. What studio do you know of that ever released a demo as fleshed out as these independent creators? I’ll wait.
Wait, there actually are folks NOT interested in titanic!?! Have I been alive and participating in the construction of this and ship and her sister ships I think I would like it if I fell into the woodwork department
@3:34 whatever that is.. it’s hideous. Why does everything on these new boats has to be colorful and look like a disgusting theme park? Just goes to show that we lost the ability to be classy in any way or shape. Minimalism or some kind of disgusting patchwork of color and materials. Truly sad
Question to EVERYONE. Would you accept being taken back to April 10th 1912 and the chance to experience Titanics maiden voyage with a 75% chance of surviving the sinking? If you survive it back to New York you transport back to current year (rn 2024), however if you died, you are gone forever. 1 Rule: You cannot mention to any crew or passengers the icefield or anything a "Monday morning QB" would know. I would do it 2bh 😊
That is not correct. First of all the sets are scaled up, and look at photos of the grand staircase structure its metal framework under the wood. The wood is just for show, everything structural is metal under the wood.
@@danieljaymeshansel5086 you are incorrect look it up. Jim Cameron was obsessively meticulous about historical accuracy. Cameron, Don Lynch and Ken Marschall even talk about it in the Titanic 20 years later documentary.
@stingfan4 the movie set was made as accurately as possible for when it was constructed, but it was still a film set. It was made smaller, larger, and to size in certain spaces. The dome was circular on the set instead of oval like on the ship because of the changes, for instance. And indeed it was mainly built out of wood only, with a basic steel framework, and was placed in the sinking soundstage. That's why it floated up as a whole when the water poured in.
Feel so sad for the wood workers and the ship builders. So much work just for a ship to sink.
I knooooow. My god all that work... gone! Some people might have even died or suffered to make that wooden work of art
Even if the ship had not sunk. All that woodwork would have been scrapped.
@@IntrepidMilobut it would have lasted for at least another 30 years.
one of the workers sons said in a documentary some of them broke down and cried.
@@IntrepidMiloNot necessarily. They were often repurposed and used in hotels etc, so far from wasteful had it not sunk.
The "shut up he thinks he's witty" jokes, are wonderful 😂 But god, the amount of work that goes behind this recreation is amazing
I'm glad my humor isn't lost!
(as well as the team's work, but the jokes are what's important)
Titantic is amazing. I love the grand staircase. Thanks for this story.
Such beautiful craftsmanship!! Another reason to feel sad at her loss. Thank you for showing this video to us.
What an honor to be an Officer for this amazing project...
Imagine you were on the Titanic, you board on the D deck, your cabin is down on E deck and you basically don't ever need to go up the A or Boat deck. So you never get to see the dome or the clock.
You would still inevitably go to the lounge or writing room, and to the boat deck when the ship sinks
Though, you might need to use the gym or go to the wireless office to have a message sent.
@@3UZFE Wireless messages was not handed over in the marchoni room. As a passenger they had to be handed over and paid at the office on c deck. They had pipes for moving the papers up and down from marchoni room to c deck.
Social stratification, amirite?

Oh god, i can't wait for this!
its been 84 years
I can still smell the fresh paint, the beds that had never been slept in and the fresh china that had never been used. She was the ship of dreams. She truly was.
dude, you've got another 60 live sinking videos to go before this game ever sees the light of day.
I could listen to Matt talk all day :)
I have heard on a few other docs that the interior designs in the Titanic and Olympic were not really innovative; Ken Marschall even goes as far as to say that they were "quite pedestrian". They were based on those of older ships and were elaborated on so they were according to one of the narrators "evolutionary, not revolutionary". I still like the interiors of both ships though
Excellent video! It really helps people grasp the sheer amount of detail built into this beautiful space. If I were on the ship I would feel like I was in a palace.
Incredible detail
The details that went into this spot alone… smh 🤧 people MUST now understand why we love this area of the ship!
😢😢😢😢😢
I know it's unwise and unecessary to tempt fate, but I think it would be amazing to stay in a hotel that was decorated like the interior of Titanic. I just want to walk down that grand staircase! 😊

I want to see more Britannic recreations! Stunning.
id love for their to be a demo tour with a voiceover of everything it’s so interesting
What a grand video.
plot twist… How the grand staircase looks on the wreck is actually how the grand staircase looked 😎
Those are *factory* rusticles!
A bold artistic choice to be sure!
Finally i remember the "TitanicClock" Chanels video about the origins of the Clock, but i was wondering where the influences for the rest of ship came from! please more areas!

Titanic transcended from just a lucrative concept for a company, to a lucrative concept for multiple companies.
I was holding court with these two ladies... HONOR & GLORY 🎉CROWNING TIME🎉
Nice. Thanks for sharing.
What an amazing experience
Truly fascinating
Thank you, this is fascinating

=196,200Pa−98,100Pa=98,100Pa (Pascals)
If this acted on an area of 50 m²:

=4,905,000N

I’m curious about the oil painting on boat deck, I noticed that addition recently and I’m wondering what lead you and the team to add it?
Just a random question. Did the clock at the boat deck half landing chime the hour at all?
are you channeling Mr. Plinkett @1:57? haha
The workers at H&W when the ship sank: ALLAT WORK FOR WHAT
When they heard the news "they were reduced to tears they took it to heart" (Ken Marschall in 1994's "Titanic: The Complete Story" from A&E)
I think the staircase did break up and float out . The pressure would give immense force to anything buoyant.
I appreciate the not so subtle dig at James Cameron. "This beauty was too strong to simply break up and float out upwards. It was stronger than a movie set."
At 21:07 you can clearly see that there are two cherub. I had no difficulty see them.

I never knew the clock figure carvings had names, hence the name of VDR's project i'm guessing. Interesting.
Oh the possibilities!
Everything Possible About Titanic's Grand Staircase*

The dome was backlit. Survivors said it was as bright as day in the evenings.
Name these survivors?
How should I know? I heard it in the commentary when they interviewed James Cameron
im here for the 2012 mini series slander
Could you guys add no clip to the next demo 401 update please.
1:46 that was hilarious😂
Is there any plans to add updates to Britannic: Patroness of the Mediterranean?
Regarding architectural measurements for the Grand Staircase, is the stair rise 9" and the angle of ascent at 28°?
Wait…
…is 19:55 a photograph of Olympic… *showing the corridor ceilings?!?!* :0
WHAT?!
If an electric chandelier is properly an 'electrolier', then surely the D Deck electric candelabra should be termed an 'electrolabra'? 🤔
2:12 BOO! 🤣🤣
Was the ‘Oh. Oh. How Embarrassing’ a Mr. Plinkett reference?
Which movie didn't feature the grand staircase?
Are you guys back developing again???
That lady took a grand tumble down that stair case.
Was she pushed? We may never know.
8:04 9:12 9:17 9:23 14:52
Can you please share the link to that Perry & Co catalog?
but if the staircase didnt float out, how did the d-deck candlebarbba get out?
And today they make ships look like motel 8
