CortanasRequiem a clever idea for a horror game would be walking around a space station like in alien isolation. But with nothing dangerous whatsoever. Just don’t tell the player that. People aren’t so much frightened of being alone in the dark. As they are that they might not be alone in the dark.
@@kurokitsune1939 Gone Home for example is literally just a walking simulator but it takes place in an old house where the lighting doesn't work very well and I nearly had a heart attack every time I entered a new room.
@@lordthor5951 Oh yeah. Played recently. I had no idea if the game had horror elements or no. So i was a little bit afraid early on (i had the turn all the lights on kinda gameplay). Shit got really scary when i found out the hidden passages. The progress was so slow there.
When I started the video I was like: aww, it's not in VR By the end of the video I was like: Thank god it wasn't in VR, would have resulted in a heart attack or something
You think watching someone else is scary? Try playing it yourself. Egad, this game was terrifying! And that's exactly why I remember it so fondly. It's one of the few horror games that was genuinely terrifying. Some other games come close and some even do the job Right, but most don't. Freaky/scary enemies is a step in the right direction, but atmosphere, and the soundtrack need to help too, or else all you've got is The Evil Within. Random dead bodies, a predictable story, and bloody ponds do not a scary game make. This game hit every note at the right time. If I had to make one complaint it's that the alien's pattern was predictable. It'd pop out of a vent, snoop around for a bit, then climb back into a vent for a minute or so, then pop out again, snoop around for a bit, then hop back into a vent. Once you made a rough memorization of that time pattern it was too easy to move around so long as you didn't make a lot of noise along the way. Oh, and lockers as a hiding space will almost-always get you caught.
Lemonhead 15 that’s a feature on this game actually. At least on console I know it is. PS or Kinect camera can detect ambient noise in the room and translate that into the noise you make in game. Not good when Xeno is hunting you. The muffled screaming you’re forced to make is horrifying
Y'know Soviet, that shuddering huff noise that the alien makes is called 'chuffing' it's the same noise lions make when they say hi to each other in their pride. He just wants to say hi to you!
You know that game has an option to pick up mircophone audio and the Xenomorph reacting to it. That would even be twice as entertaining if Womble wasn't even alowed to make hysterical noises in fear of being heard and hunted down.
+Zachary Cambetis I remember shivering with relief on reaching that save point. It's also worth noting that all of this is BEFORE I had really encountered the alien. That's in part 2 when it's AI is released on me. The environment is just so well crafted that the immersion came so easily. And it made everything feel so threatening without seeing it. It overloaded my ability to cope.
10:25 Imagine yourself in Ripley's shoes. You just looted a box and then you turn around and see a liquid slowly dripping from the vent. Even if it's just a spilled platypus precum i'm still gonna lose my shit.
No "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH" when you see an enemy, no slow motion replays on the screaming parts, can't tell is that your breath or the character one, start doing nervous laught for no reason.... This is maybe the best but REAL reactions video on youtube i ever seen from a horror game
It's his breathing. Ripley is not scripted to breathe heavily unless she gets shot or something like that, so... Yeah, the heavy breathing is Womble's!

There’s a “fear gauge” if I remember correctly, that will slowly fill up with time and as certain sounds and events play out. Once it’s almost full, the alien will prowl. At its max, it will deliberately come near the player’s area. Then after a minute or so, the game tells it to back off for a while. That’s why the game is so intense- it’s designed to give you JUST enough of a break, but never enough that your fear will lower entirely.
Klaw Schafer Addition to that: The Alien is dependent upon a number of in game factors that are partially decided by player action.

Also, if it hasn’t encountered you in a while, like you avoid setting the Fear bar up by doing the right actions to dodge it. The AI will do a forced encounter, (you get some indicator warnings) and it will proceed to screw with you a bit until it gets its encounter fill and leaves, patrolling vents and other areas working in your proximity to keep you on your toes until you move to new areas.
I saw one woman's playthrough where she got nailed right after she boarded Sevastopol because she kept running everywhere. I thought, "Well, that answers that!"
@@davidthorp01 You know it, brother!! Up until I met "Axel," or whatever the hell that guy's name was in the first cutscene, I was being REALLY careful about making much noise at all. I didn't run anywhere, but I was walking quite a bit. After that? Hands and knees, buddy! I think the only time I ran anywhere was after the Joe saw me near the cafeteria after the explosion and I had to run for a tube to get away. I figured I was safe; there was so much background noise, I doubt the alien would have heard a Mac truck roll through at that point.
This entire video you were freaking out but when you get impaled you just say "bugger" like it was the most incovient thing and if that's not British I don't know what is
Kelpy G Wind can happen in a ship with high/low pressure rooms. It just wouldn't be strong, and wouldn't travel through most of the station to some spot where he is.
I get scared at horror games because I'm anticipating the jump scare. I know it's coming so everytime there is a jump or an action that might end in a jump I shit myself 😂🤣
I come and rewatch this entire series every year or two, it's that entertaining. I don't think there is another person who can play horror games and match Womble's level of entertainment. It gives me plenty of laughs and plenty of anxiety, I love it 👌🏼
Womble is giggly and is hyperventilating, you can actually feel his shaking just by how much his breathing is shaking. While Ripley is more just light hyperventilation and generic heavy breathing that sounds much more composed than Womble's sheer panic and fear.
i have to say Soviet unlike most youtubers your reactions are the most human. My favorite reaction was when you first saw the Xenomorphs drool. i could hear the genuine dread and fear in your voice. 10/10 would watch again.
I'm not so much scared of the game as I am for Womble's health... The man sounds like he's on the verge of having a heart attack... or he's trying to run a marathon while recording this...
@@svary6440 Fear also makes your cortisol levels higher, which is generally bad for your brain and vascular system, leading to negative moods, poor decision-making, lack of sleep and an increased risk of heart attack in the long run, among a long list of other things which i don't care to list.
His mad giggling reminds me of Rickles buying the farm in Romero's (R.I.P) Day of the Dead (The real one not the crappy wannabe remake.) watch?v=2fiv96GoZSI =)
Me watching this at 1 am: "ok everything seems to be fine in the beginning" Womble: "This is fine" **Cuts to pitch black room** Me: *"Nope I'm going to bed"*
"It takes more than a silly computer game to scare me." Android jumpscare "OH NO NO NO NO NO DON'T COME FOR ME! BACK OFF, STAY BACK. ERRGHGHGH OH GOD OH GOD NO NO NO!"
@@nondescripthandle212 True, but User of Username was probably referencing to the way Womble sounds like a deranged lunatic who has lost their mind with how he's laughing at that timestamp. Which, as we can see by his recent videos he's fine now.
Give the man credit, this is an intense game. I played with friends watching and I still got scared at points even after watching 3 playthroughs before playing it. That fear of going so long without a save point while everything around you threatens to take away all that progress is stressful.
Sean 48 Yeah, that was the point of my comment. They always give your character exaggerated breathing, but it is actually how some people breathe when they're scared
it is part of the fight or flight response, it means he has adrenaline running through his system and his body is keeping higher levels of oxygen in his muscles and blood in preparation for either. Easier to start a sprint if you dont need a warm up
Matthew Wong Yeah, a classic in the horror genre, all sub-categories combined; with his newest Lich video, they make-ah-me SOOOOO SCAAAARED, of the dark, maaaaan !!!
The silence at the end of the video was eerie. This was genuinely the most impressively original horror game reaction video on youtube and the immersion in the game is incredible. Womble you truly had some of us concerned as to whether you truly lost your mind when you got into that last locker. Damn son
Alien: Isolation is one of the very few story games I've really replayed, and this is one of the only youtube series I've rewatched. I'm back again. This playthrough is just so good!
I died so many times in that damn game that I got annoyed with it, and suddenly nothing scare me anymore. But watching this video, with you jumping and panicking, every little noise started to make me feel like there was something creeping up behind me even though it was in the video
I know Im EXTEMELY late to the party, but soviet you are easily one of the best content creators on this channel. Especially when it comes to horror games, with most people you can tell they are acting, with you I can tell you are ACTUALLY afraid and spooked, fear is not something that is easily acted. Plus its easy to tell when somebody is afraid of something when you are afraid of that same thing, alien isolation is EASILY one of the best horror/survival games that has came out in recent years (especially when you play on the hardest difficulty with lighting and gamma all the way down, so you can barely see jack shit without a flashlight (torch) or flare). And I wanted to thank you for your genuine fear, and also all the hilarious vids you make :).
Coming back to this playthrough 8 years later, I have to commend Womble on having accurate subtitles, not only available, but edited onto the video itself. So many TH-camrs don't bother with it, so I'm immensely grateful for the ones that do ❤
It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, IT'S FINE, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine, It's fine...

Spoiler for gameplay but:
It IS. There are certain areas where it won’t ever go, but they’re exceedingly rare. The game literally throws the Xenomorph at you super early and it never leaves other than specific parts. It will always be there, and there’s actually a complicated mechanism to how it will appear. There’s a “fear gauge” if I remember correctly, that will slowly fill up with time and as certain sounds and events play out. Once it’s almost full, the alien will prowl. At its max, it will deliberately come near the player’s area. Then after a minute or so, the game tells it to back off for a while.
That’s why the game is so intense- it’s designed to give you JUST enough of a break, but never enough that your fear will lower entirely.
Klaw Schafer Addition to that: The Alien is dependent upon a number of in game factors that are partially decided by player action. Yes, the Alien follows the fear gage, but why it showed up so early was due to Womble’s own actions. He for instance, constantly checked his radar, ran around a bunch, aggro’d NPCs, and so on. Which done at his pacing, agro’ed the Alien earlier as per its AI design. Honestly, the AI for this game is top tier, and is STILL an industry standard to reach for most Horror games.
Also, the AI adapts based on your actions fun enough. Let’s say you hide in lockers a lot. If you do it enough, the AI starts checking lockers, ‘sniffing’ them for your presence. More veteran players use this to gimp the monster, as it tends to only use one or two control factors. If it misses you consistently, it will adapt to what your new hiding spots tend to be. Ergo, it is one of the few adaptive AI in gaming. It also, is one of the Hardest to beat later in the game because it KNOWS YOU. It knows your patterns, it knows how you like to hide, chances, percentages, and other data are tighter and tighter the longer you play. Making late gameplay all the harder. Like I said, it is hunting you, and it is damn good at it.
That’s what makes it so scary, because it learns to HUNT you. Using a combination of the “Fear bar” and pathfinding. Also, if it hasn’t encountered you in a while, like you avoid setting the Fear bar up by doing the right actions to dodge it. The AI will do a forced encounter, (you get some indicator warnings) and it will proceed to screw with you a bit until it gets its encounter fill and leaves, patrolling vents and other areas working in your proximity to keep you on your toes until you move to new areas.
I saw one woman's playthrough where she got nailed right after she boarded Sevastopol because she kept running everywhere. I thought, "Well, that answers that!"
Christopher Rahm Ooooof, never do that, especially with this game. It sets off all the bloody “tripwires”.
@@davidthorp01 You know it, brother!! Up until I met "Axel," or whatever the hell that guy's name was in the first cutscene, I was being REALLY careful about making much noise at all. I didn't run anywhere, but I was walking quite a bit. After that? Hands and knees, buddy! I think the only time I ran anywhere was after the Joe saw me near the cafeteria after the explosion and I had to run for a tube to get away. I figured I was safe; there was so much background noise, I doubt the alien would have heard a Mac truck roll through at that point.
This never gets old, no matter how many times i watch it
Aidan Daly thats how you can tell he's a good TH-camr, his videos are timeless, they never get old
Indeed.
if you are brave enough to watch it,not me tho
oldthrashbar The fucc is your problem?
🤦🏼♂️ there's always over reactors in the comments
10:27 you can literally feel the panic in his voice, poor guy xD
This entire video you were freaking out but when you get impaled you just say "bugger" like it was the most incovient thing and if that's not British I don't know what is
Tbh, dying in a horror game would be quite a relief as you can finally take a little break without the fear of dying.
@@9nikola The sweet release of death...in a video game.
@@9nikola True, but then you realize the progress you lost, then back to the fear of dying.
It's just a temporary relief from all the stress.
@@camaro2390 *horror* game.
* Hears a noise in space where there is no wind* then proceeds to say its just the wind
Kelpy G Wind can happen in a ship with high/low pressure rooms. It just wouldn't be strong, and wouldn't travel through most of the station to some spot where he is.
Lil Hotdog - Topic Do you think noise wouldn't transfer on a space station?
This would be so much better with cyinide
There is actually wind in space it is what gives us the northern and southern lights come from
Connor Flannigan those are solar winds
I've never seen a Game *DESTROYING* a player like that
He was anxious and nervous fRom the start.
Dude this is me in any horror game! I hate horror games they shit out of me.
@Levi Ackerman Clearly you never played wow.
Levi Ackerman yeah he got fucking owned
I get scared at horror games because I'm anticipating the jump scare. I know it's coming so everytime there is a jump or an action that might end in a jump I shit myself 😂🤣
I come and rewatch this entire series every year or two, it's that entertaining. I don't think there is another person who can play horror games and match Womble's level of entertainment. It gives me plenty of laughs and plenty of anxiety, I love it 👌🏼
Same :)
2:38 "its fine, its just the wind"... womble... in space?
Cosa Nostra, there would be air on the ship.
But no wind though.
on a ship which is torn in half?
kaakeli laatotus not wind like we experience on earth outside. Vents on the ship create drafts/gusts which is pretty much wind
weredragon100 That is true.
I just watched all of these and 80% of it is womble saying "it's fine it's fine" and "im not freaking out". 10% is locker simulator
LaBass666 him dieing
Shadowblaster2003 you are really bad at math
Cunicle I'll have you know I'm doing Pre-calculus and I have an "A"

craft Lawrence *you're awesome
I cant tell the difference between Soviet's breathing and Ripley's
It's just Womble's.
The difference is that one breathing is really girlish and panicky and the other breathing is Ripley's
@@kurtmueller2089 hahaha nice one
Womble is giggly and is hyperventilating, you can actually feel his shaking just by how much his breathing is shaking. While Ripley is more just light hyperventilation and generic heavy breathing that sounds much more composed than Womble's sheer panic and fear.
16:26 Everything here, from the slight glimpse of the Xenomorph to Ripley's death happens so perfectly.
So this is what sincere fear sounds like from a youtuber during a horror game playthrough. I thought I'd never find that out.
There's also Jesse Cox (not a relative) playing Dead Space. It gets to the point that he pretty much craps himself when his communicator goes off.
Fake as fuck.
Superspec Not anymore
It got to the point where I couldn’t tell if it was Womble or Ripley breathing heavily lmao
Chris Snead Womble is more terrified than Ripley :v
Same
i have to say Soviet unlike most youtubers your reactions are the most human. My favorite reaction was when you first saw the Xenomorphs drool. i could hear the genuine dread and fear in your voice. 10/10 would watch again.
Typhoon 10/10 have watched again and again and will repeat watching again and again
And he played it the way it was meant to be played. Alone, in the dark, at night, with surround sound headphones..
And watched whole series for like 5 times already, and discovered this like 2 months ago.
Typhoon It sounds like he's about to have a heart attack. It worries me.
Womble could voiceact for ripley honestly, the sound of gasping for air and sniffing is just too
good
He sounds like a woman too
I'm not so much scared of the game as I am for Womble's health... The man sounds like he's on the verge of having a heart attack... or he's trying to run a marathon while recording this...
Yeah, thought the same!!😅
Fun fact: Fear actually makes your heart stronger.
@@svary6440 Fear also makes your cortisol levels higher, which is generally bad for your brain and vascular system, leading to negative moods, poor decision-making, lack of sleep and an increased risk of heart attack in the long run, among a long list of other things which i don't care to list.
imagine drunk womble playing these horror games
He'll just pass out during game intro😆
I don t want him to die pls 😅
*d e d*
*...Lights flicker...*
"OH GOD!"
**Vomitzes**
*_*Scared giggling*_*
15:32 SovietWomble and his descent into a mental breakdown.
PinkAxolotl it's like Walter White in that crawl space episode for BB
Ghost eh
His mad giggling reminds me of Rickles buying the farm in Romero's (R.I.P) Day of the Dead (The real one not the crappy wannabe remake.) watch?v=2fiv96GoZSI =)
Me watching this at 1 am: "ok everything seems to be fine in the beginning"
Womble: "This is fine"
**Cuts to pitch black room**
Me: *"Nope I'm going to bed"*
His reaction is so genuine and terrified that it makes it so much scarier to watch
I Know Right? Damn this is gold.
I got one better for ya. Being able to feel what happened to ya in a scary game
He is the only horror game player I watch for that reason it’s indescribably better
"Bugger" the last words of Soviet Womble before he was eaten by a space alien.
lol
Womble should become a breathing voice actor in horrorgames
How very English of him isn't it?
I can confirm that, as a fellow Englishman, they are fine last words.
oh Bugger
"It takes more than a silly computer game to scare me." Android jumpscare "OH NO NO NO NO NO DON'T COME FOR ME! BACK OFF, STAY BACK. ERRGHGHGH OH GOD OH GOD NO NO NO!"
7 years old, and this content is still top tier compared to todays entertainment
for real
Like 70% of this is just soviet hyperventilating 😂
Holy shit I thought it's the character breathing heavily 😂
I can feel the panic... It's making me panic as well. Dammit
Panic at the Disco
15:12 Womble sounds like a dog searching for food.
Ozzone hhagahaahhahahha
oh no you're right lmao
@@Ethan-mp7wr Except he was revealed?
Xyaena you’re right. He has been revealed. th-cam.com/video/bqa17IbhvPE/w-d-xo.html
@@Ethan-mp7wr That is just the skin of the Area 51 guard he killed and noone can change my mind about that
This is the first time I have seen this playthrough and Im fucking loving it. Bless this man for going through this.
I think I was more nervous watching Womble play the game then I was just actually playing the game.
Frost Fire It's because Womble might genuinely die
Same
Frost Fire u stole my fucking Xbox gamerpic 😂
15:33 how people really break down. Good job man, you really play the part of the scared-as-shit-survivor
This Video is The Gold of Scary Games Gameplay on TH-cam, damn i love it!!
Hes not playing any part, he genuinely scared to shit
@@nondescripthandle212 True, but User of Username was probably referencing to the way Womble sounds like a deranged lunatic who has lost their mind with how he's laughing at that timestamp. Which, as we can see by his recent videos he's fine now.
They should hire womble to do voice acting for horror games (the main character breathing hard)
He would be great tho.
15:12
this is the sound of pure fear. i love it.
Alien Isolation: "you're just 28 years old" | Pavlov VR: "32 years old".
Damn time runs fast
He probably lies about his age but what we know is that Soviet is around his late twenties or early thirties and maybe still single
unknown player notice this video was uploaded in 2014, and also notice how the Pavlov video was uploaded in 2018, time flies
unknown player I read from a subreddit that Womble’s born in 1986, so he probably wasn’t lying.
Soo he's probably 34 now?
Soviet has aged a bit
This guy was genuinely terrified. No acting. A real TH-camr.
#GiveWombleMoreSubs
He hss 2 mil
#givewomble100ksubs
but then again, if he were to have fame, there might be drama here and there, so i guess i kinda want to rephrase that.
uuh if he'd upload a little more he'd be cooler. 1 to 3 months of streaming for just 30minutes of a TH-cam video... nah thx
u try
*sees him freak out about the droids without ever seeing the alien* OOOOOOOOH THIS SHOULD BE FUUUUNN
Draconisraa he had all his lights in his house turned off at night im not surprised
Scorpion20012001 good point but combined with what i said earlier would still make them much more scary
Womble: I’m not freaking out
Also Womble: *hyperventilating, heavy breathing, and definitely freaking out*
"Don't be that. Not now, don't be that." *Gets scared by door.* "Don't be that."
Blackjacksgame1 was gonna like but you’re at 69 likes so yeah
You could really be a good voice actor for a horror game
Breathe really fucking hard
This was a constructive comment. I appreciate it.
It’s because that isn’t acting; he just scares easy. Real panic breakdowns will always evoke a stronger response then even the best faked ones.
Hunt down the freeman comes to mind
15:37 he's gone crazy Jesus Christ
Womble will become a psychopathic murderer if ever placed in a horror situation irl. I can feel it.
Awsome
I'm not crazy.
@@mypenisisunbelievablesmall6558 HAHAHAHA LOL
his reactions are so genuine it feels like you're in this situation realistically and I love it!
Womble hyperventilates more then my pc on a summer afternoon
abahaahha....im dead.
Drinking game drink everytime womble says "it's fine" drink
KizzaButera lol we all would die
KizzaButera like in cs go? He was giggling like a little school girl
KizzaButera I'm gonna die of drunkness 😂jks
Zombiemonkey38 jks? Renegades jks?
KizzaButera Just died of alcohol poison 2 minutes in
Legend has it, Womble hasn't slept to this day
Seth Steinmetz It wouldn't surprise me this game is scary as fuck especially the way he plays it
Give the man credit, this is an intense game. I played with friends watching and I still got scared at points even after watching 3 playthroughs before playing it.
That fear of going so long without a save point while everything around you threatens to take away all that progress is stressful.
And now I'm just picturing a xenomorph in a vent "oooh wwwooommmbbbllleeee, come out and play-ay
But in Cyanide's voice.
Nyota Mwuaji i understood that reference lol, never watched the movie but the game was great
Come out to plaaaaiiieeee
@@skullyozeez6781 same here
@@skullyozeez6781 I only know it from the TV show Archer
I always thought the heavy breathing thing in video games was stupid. This video showed me it's real.
Jackson kavanagh isn't that womble
Sean 48 Yeah, that was the point of my comment. They always give your character exaggerated breathing, but it is actually how some people breathe when they're scared
Jackson kavanagh
M
it is part of the fight or flight response, it means he has adrenaline running through his system and his body is keeping higher levels of oxygen in his muscles and blood in preparation for either. Easier to start a sprint if you dont need a warm up
The Real Huckleberry Finn
Well, that's a really in depth analysis of it, but yeah. I guess you're right.
this game retains the spirit of the original movie quite well
The environments are amazing. Someone made a no-alien mod just so you can wander thru the station admiring all the level design in peace.
womble has condensed every horror movie ever into like 16 minutes in this video. impressive
God damn. This is the best horror play through I've ever watched. Your fear is unbelievably palpable on the recording! Insane work my man.
Matthew Wong
Yeah, a classic in the horror genre, all sub-categories combined; with his newest Lich video, they make-ah-me SOOOOO SCAAAARED, of the dark, maaaaan !!!
The silence at the end of the video was eerie. This was genuinely the most impressively original horror game reaction video on youtube and the immersion in the game is incredible. Womble you truly had some of us concerned as to whether you truly lost your mind when you got into that last locker. Damn son
It's just the wind. Yes, the wind in space...
those pesky space winds, just, winding all over the place, yunno, like wind does, in space
The ventilation
solar wind?
omg its too much...i cant
Alien: Isolation is one of the very few story games I've really replayed, and this is one of the only youtube series I've rewatched. I'm back again. This playthrough is just so good!
Scariest part
Game:- 5%
Panic Player :- 95%
XD
I died so many times in that damn game that I got annoyed with it, and suddenly nothing scare me anymore. But watching this video, with you jumping and panicking, every little noise started to make me feel like there was something creeping up behind me even though it was in the video
The only thing that scares me is the music cues and Womble making noises ive never heard a man make
TheBirchWoodTree every man has made those noises at least once womble on the other hand........let's just he's not your average man
Scariest thing about this is watching him play with an empty magazine
So fucking true
Scariest thing about that is revolvers dont take magazines xD, you mean cylinder?
Christian Turner why you gotta be that guy cmon
leo townsend Magazines aren't even close to Cylinders, that's why.
Cloгох Вleacн
They both hold ammunition for a gun, so I'd say they're pretty darn close.
Rewatching this after many years and coming from Romulus - still some of the best Alien content out there haha
13:48
Steam:
"RUN BITCH!"
laughed my ass off.
I know Im EXTEMELY late to the party, but soviet you are easily one of the best content creators on this channel. Especially when it comes to horror games, with most people you can tell they are acting, with you I can tell you are ACTUALLY afraid and spooked, fear is not something that is easily acted. Plus its easy to tell when somebody is afraid of something when you are afraid of that same thing, alien isolation is EASILY one of the best horror/survival games that has came out in recent years (especially when you play on the hardest difficulty with lighting and gamma all the way down, so you can barely see jack shit without a flashlight (torch) or flare). And I wanted to thank you for your genuine fear, and also all the hilarious vids you make :).
on this site I meant, not channel, lol
If this game had a mic feature thing where it picked up the noises you make, Womble would be absolutely fucked.
Ze D I'm pretty sure it does actually but you can turn it off
It does at least on xbox but you need the motion detector thing (i forgot what its called)
@@petercorti3617 kinect
He should play the game Stifled. Echolocation based game using a mic as input. Pretty cool game mechanic.
Welcome to the game 2 has that feature
Coming back to this playthrough 8 years later, I have to commend Womble on having accurate subtitles, not only available, but edited onto the video itself. So many TH-camrs don't bother with it, so I'm immensely grateful for the ones that do ❤
