      Someone might have already said this, but I'm 99.9% sure that the "green figure in the water" in Stardew Valley is a Kappa, a little green water dwelling creature that's been in the other games as an Easter egg (you can even romance it in one game).

    The Choro Q Mystery seems to be heavily referencing Invasion of The Body Snatchers, where alien pods land on earth that slowly grow into clones of humans that kill and replace the original. This one definitely seems a little tongue-in-cheek by depicting the pods as a Soybean pod. This means that if you don't believe Rosspury he's replaced by his alien clone 😰

    With the stardew one there is actually a bit more to it that the community does know!
    First off the mural at the volcano actual depicts the Dwarf race arriving on earth, as they are called The Sky People, and have stories of a massive cataclysm that sent them hurtling deep into the earth. The Dwarves were also significantly more technologically advanced than they are as we see them in the game, represented by the ancient Dwarven computers you can dig up. Though the Dwarves we're able to talk to don't mention growing in tubes, and the shadowy figure doesn't look like the silhouette of any dwarf shown in the game so its likely they are different species of aliens. But aliens have been an established part of the stardew valley lore for awhile, even if we don't know a whole lot about them

    The SH4 UFO ending was cut. The assets are still in the game files, but there is no code associated with them. It's TCRF material at this point. Rodolfo Nuñez has made that much clear in past videos as have other SH4 hackers/modders. You can find another one of the channeling stones still visible in the game in the back room once you've broken a hole in the wall with the Pickaxe of Hope. It's just laying on the ground. Can't be interacted with. But it's there.

It's a fairly well known bit of trivia in the SH community. Unfortunately, SH4 modding isn't really very big. Everyone is heavily focused on SH2. I'm hoping SH4 modding comes along someday. There's tons of cool things that could be done with it the same way the SH2 Enhance Edition does for SH2.

    It’s important to note with Stardew Valley that the ingame lore has aliens as well. There are “dwarves” in the game, who call themselves “the sky people” and landed on the planet an unknown number of years ago. The in game Shadow People (not the weird figure in this video) fought a war with them due to their sudden appearance on the planet and a fight for resources and space.

    In the AWE expansion, you can find an alien, but he's seemingly been locked up in there for decades. It's doubtful he had anything to do with, but there are canonically aliens in the series. Since they're a shared universe, the question now is of the chicken and egg variety. Which came first, alien contact of some kind which introduced the AWEs or did the AWEs bring the aliens.

    The Choro Q stuff is likely a reference to the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers. In the movie aliens come to Earth and begin replacing the inhabitants with dopplegangers grown in fleshy pods, which the protagonists refer to as Pod People. In Choro Q, an exact replica of Rosspury emerges from a giant pea pod, making the duplicate a Pod Person (or Pod Car I guess).

  • @Zer0Tr1gger

    The drunk guy in Alan Wake talking about Danny being a "space alien" is actually alluding to the fact that the people in Bright Falls are being possessed (or "Taken") by the Dark Presence. When this happens, the person is basically dead and their body becomes little more than a puppet filled with darkness. Obviously, Walter didn't understand this and chalked it up to aliens; but you do fight the Taken Danny later in the game, which confirms his story.

    Hunting Unlimited 3. This triggered an old memory from way back in my childhood that could possibly be the reason for its existence.
    This possibly clues to an "alien movie" easter egg. I do not remember the name but I remember this scene very vividly. The alien approaches one of the characters houses, and sticks his fingers underneath the front door frame. The character then uses an axe he was holding, and chops off the aliens fingers. I remember it as well because it was also in a robot chicken parody skit they made one time. So that's my theory, and if someone could tell me if they know the movie I'm talking about, then let me know!

    It's worth noting that SH4 wasn't originally meant to be a Silent Hill game at all but rather a different, unique horror game simply called The Room that, while set in the same universe, would have no important connections to the story of Silent Hill beyond maybe a few easter eggs. It only had the Silent Hill name slapped onto it along with some hasty connections to the Order because the higher-ups were worried it wouldn't sell otherwise. With that in mind and considering the point you made about the scrapped item descriptions being in English even though localization isn't normally done until late in a game's development, I'm guessing that the game wasn't originally going to have a UFO ending because that's a Silent Hill tradition, not a The Room tradition, then when it was forced to become a Silent Hill game late in development they started trying to implement one, and finally it was hastily scrapped anyway because they couldn't finish putting it together before the deadline. It doesn't explain everything, but it's food for thought.

      @velvetbutterfly 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I heard that's just a rumour because the development code name was simply "The Room" but that it was developed as a Silent Hill game from day 1.
      Also some games have localization happen alongside the original writing to make sure both are very similar. There also is the case that some Japanese companies sometimes release games in America first.
      I believe at the time SH4 came out Mario & Luigi and a Sonic game or two have done it, plus maybe some smaller names.

      That's a misconception around the internet one of the developers outright said in an interview that The room was always a silent hill game.
      Tsuboyama: We wanted to make a sequel after Silent Hill 3 and you could say that was the initial concept, but upon that we needed to implement a lot of new flavour to the sequel, otherwise it would have been the same old Silent Hill. So for that, we created "The Room" as the concept for the game, so that we could use to represent the contrast between the normal and the abnormal life which changes suddenly. For the scenario we got our general influence from a book called Coin Locker Babies, which was written by a Japanese writer called Ryu Murakami. It talks about a baby abandoned in a coin locker. That was the general background.

    Im assuming the peapod thing in ChoroQ is just a cheeky reference to "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", which had Pods in it that cloned people to replace them with aliens. The toilet thing in Silent Hill 4 may just be a joke reference to Silent Hill 2, where James had to fish a wallet out of an extremely gross toilet.

    Probably useless note on the Strange Capsule event in Stardew Valley but it wasn’t actually made more common more that originally the capsule was bugged, normally events of that type (that spawn objects) work where after the event triggers it scans around 100 tiles on the farm and places the object on a random clear tile
    however the Strange Capsule event was bugged where it would instead require every random tile it scanned to be clear (which was typically not possible due to the game also potentially scanning water, the player’s house or other tiles that are impossible to clear) so it’s still the same chance in 1.5 but they fixed it so it works like any other item spawning event (and was probably not fixed till 1.5 due to ConcernedApe only adding more to the event in that update)
    Also on the “our ancestors came from the sky” line the lore in Stardew would more likely imply thats related to the Dwarfs as they’re canonically aliens who crash landed on earth in ancient times

    14:25 American translator Jeremy Blaustein worked closely with Team Silent throughout the series to ensure that the story and characters resonated with western audiences. He also wrote the English script and assisted with the voice acting. His contribution has often been forgotten, but it's thanks to his support that Silent Hill has retained a cult following. So Im not surprised there is English in the game, they most likely co-wrote the script in both English and Japanese. I doubt Silent Hill 2-4 even has Japanese voice acting. I imagine the Japanese version has subtitles. The toilet is just a reference to show different Henry is from James in Silent Hill 2.

    In the days before the 1.5 update of Stardew Valley, the Strange Capsule and Stone Owl (which did and still do share the same spawn conditions) were so rare that the few people who knew about them weren't even sure they really existed in the game or if they were unused assets. I seem to recall ConcernedApe saying either on Twitter or in the 1.5 patch notes that this was because of a mistake in the code that made their spawn conditions next to impossible to fulfill. The 1.5 update fixed the mistake and restored their spawn conditions to what they were supposed to be all along. They're still rare, but nowhere near as infamously rare as they used to be.

    Silent Hill 4 released in Japan with English language options and voiceovers and everything, you could import it and get the same experience as the US version (I did to play it 3 months before release). From working with localization teams on games myself, most likely the spreadsheet contains a raw dump of all the sentences, items, etc. that are translated en masse which winds up including cut content.

    The beans aren't "green beans" but rather Japanese "edamame", or "soya beans".

The plant aliens also attached to, absorbed and replaced their human hosts in that film too.

However, there are level 10 doors around the map but no way to get to level 10 security. So dantdm installed a hack that allowed him level 10 security but when he went through the door he fell through the map... but what Dan didn't notice was something in the background as he was falling... it was pretty hard to see.

    It's worth noting: just because text is translated doesn't mean devs expected you to see it. Localizers often aren't told what the text they're translating is for, they're just handed a big dump of all the text in the game. There's plenty of games with unfinished stuff in the files that's translated anyway because nobody translating knew it wasn't meant to be used, or because that unfinished stuff is still used by playtesters and they need to be able to read that.

    That Choro Q Easter-egg appears to be a deliberate reference to the 1956 science-fiction horror classic, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." The movie involves alien plant pods arriving on Earth that birth alien clones of people, which then replace the originals. The alien clones are uncanny, and the main characters slowly figure out they're being replaced. The central theme is paranoia and I believe it may have been deliberately commenting on the Red Scare and McCarthyism. The movie's been remade and reinterpreted at least 3 times now so it's got a solid foothold in alien pop culture.
    Still surprised it'd be referenced in a game about a Japanese car toyline though.
