"Some fucking guy." is probably the funniest person to be haunted by. He's not even a particularly notable character. He's just a guy who dies in the equivalent of a back alley.
Note that of the three people we see the surgeon try to save, all of them near-instantly die within seconds of him administering treatment, the pocket watch being his only key to success is extremely funny to think abour
I literally only just realized watching this that the mermaid saw it back to its home port in England, then immediately spun up a storm and sunk it (is was destroyed in a storm, and it starts to rain once you’ve finished all the memories)
@@thexinventor47 they might have done it specifically as a warning. Like, "look at the stuff these people did by stealing my shell. learn the damn lesson or suffer the same fate". Supersticious guy proved that humans can be reasonable, so the mermaid is giving the humans the benefit of the doubt with a warning
@@aag2139 It's kinda nice of her to not sink the boat until you're off it. The mermaids definitely aren't evil, and all things considered, are actually quite _nice_ to humans. I mean, the Captain shot and killed 2 of them, and the 3rd still took Martin's request to sail it back to where it started from (which canonically took OVER A YEAR) and then watched over it until you were done with your job.
one thing i would recommend is rewatching this video sometime after you finish as once you know the details of the story looking at some other memories will be like "oh shit so thats what was going on"
she played WHAT?! hell yeah!! i fucking love this game. glad to see it getting some recognition!! edit: spoilers below at 2:12:30 , the give away isnt that he's with all the other topmen, its that the say his name in the secne before the one where dies. they say "its already done for Nick".
Oh this is SUCH a good stream highlight video. These are some of my fav Holly streams and this is an incredibly rewatchable compilation. May we never forget all those spratted by the beast (Also good Baofu Personatwo pfp)
Hold up, there's a few times you went "those are the only clues you get" which were wrong. You said Nick "is a top man and looks like a Nick" and not "they literally say his name in the next scene". And the purser can be seen cowering in the purser's office during the crab-people attack, by peeping into the little window holes.
BIZARRE tone for these streams. I dislike the casualization of a game I personally take quite seriously in the "you only have one first experience" department, I dislike Mikes role as backseat/handhold even if I feel he plays the part very well, I dislike what came across as Holly feeling she needs to fill dead air with nearly nonsensical reaches of humour, as though she realized "oh man standing looks funny sometimes" and clinged to it for dear life. It's bizarre to me because ultimately everything I've just complained about is superseded by the sheer presence these two hold in a stream that it remains enjoyable in spite of it all. Genuinely I hope this reads as a compliment to the two while still holding my complaints.
you should only watch holly streams of games if you've played the game, that's sorta just a given. she's gonna experience it and have fun, if you want to feel the mood without then you gotta buy it
Despite those things they're doing a very good job of picking up details that most other playthroughs miss until much later on (ie using the glossary to help ID the helmsman, working out the meaning of the numbers on the hammocks, ID'ing people based on their accents and so on)

Huh. As another fun fact I missed this stream because of jury duty... life is odd

I love how you can hear the smile on Holly's face when she reads 'THE HONOURABLE EAST INDIA COMPANY'
just realised that when a fate is confirmed, it plays the sound of a typewriter key clacking
Note that of the three people we see the surgeon try to save, all of them near-instantly die within seconds of him administering treatment, the pocket watch being his only key to success is extremely funny to think abour
Well, you only see when people die.
He seemed to patch up the helmsman just fine
Almost as if the only people we can see are the dead, something something airplane with bullet holes

Brain went "yeah, it kinda endured a storm" and thought nothing of it, damn
Makes me wonder if it knew about the pocketwatch, and wanted to leave just enough time for you to record everything that happened on board

God, Holly's laughter is so good and infectious. I keep grinning every time Holly laughs during this which is frequent and wonderful.
"That Man" appears at 1:06:08
Badman Stinkface...
I don't think I'll ever get over Mike's chuckster impression.

Surprisingly reverential
Had me in the first half. I was gonna say that's just how Holly plays video games.
you should only watch holly streams of games if you've played the game, that's sorta just a given. she's gonna experience it and have fun, if you want to feel the mood without then you gotta buy it
(i figure op did buy/play already, just saying a rule of thumb)
