    Anyone else never played Deadly Premonition but watched like 50 documentaries about it lmao

    A detail I really like about the Zach twist is that despite us seeing York the whole game he always looked like Zach to everyone in the world, and this is hinted at with many people mentioning York's "scar" which Zach has far more prominently than York's model.

    I came back from getting cigarettes because of this video, son ❤

  • @Josh-ez5hf
    @Josh-ez5hf Před 3 měsíci +23

    I love how at first York being overly easy going is just a product of the Twin Peaks influence but is actively explained as a coping mechanism after the twist. Everything about the finale was genuinely powerful and incredibly moving

  • @InvadeNormandy
    @InvadeNormandy Před 3 měsíci +55

    Did you see that, Zach? Clear as a crisp spring morning!
    "Deadly Premonition" in my youtube recommended! I knew I could count on it, never fails.

    I really appreciate these long stretch videos. In a world of Internet (and toxic) distractions, this in my opinion is a healthy one and brings innocent child hood nostalga.
    I also appreciate the in-depth research and time you put in.

    @gdot1803 Před 3 měsíci +9

    Not sure if you mentioned it in your video, but 1998's Mizzurna Falls and 1999's Shenmue did a lot of the gameplay ideas of Deadly Premonition when it comes to the player investigating a town, which has a day/night cycle, that the NPC's adhere to.

  • @Ethan-pd1ju
    @Ethan-pd1ju Před 3 měsíci +12

    Played this game as a kid, and was absolutely baffled by it 😭. I think this game started my love for games such as it, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill

  • @SaiScribbles
    @SaiScribbles Před 2 měsíci +2

    20:50 Early on when this game was first going viral I speculated that "Zack" was what York called the player and he was breaking the forth wall. That wasn't it, but I still like the idea.

    Your videos have been so like mature in the "fully formed voice" kind of way since the beginning and watching you grow as a video essayist so much since then has been a real pleasure. I've always been proud of you, son, but you just keep topping yourself and it's really inspiring to watch. Keep it up kid

  • @c2HitsButtons
    @c2HitsButtons Před 3 měsíci +7

    I feel like I say this every few months but it's been so cool to watch you come into your own as a reviewer, an orator, and an editorialist.
    Keep it up, son. You're going places.

  • @anjuneko
    @anjuneko Před 3 měsíci +4

    Thank you again for the long retrospective about Deadly Premonition. Despite its flaws and awkward presentation you'll find yourself drawn in by its charm. It also got me to watch Twin Peaks, which I would also highly recommend. Just watch the series and say to yourself "This was on NATIONAL TV" it was so fascinating and creative. Its also known that David Lynch, the show's creator was more or less forced to name Laura Palmer's killer and the show went on to another season without him, which in itself is a fascinating watch. He does return near the end to right the course, but stick it out and follow it up with the recent series that came out as well!

    • @nemesissombria
      @nemesissombria Před měsícem

      The thing is, the game is ridiculous, but at the same time, it seems to have been made with love. And the story is great. I really didn't expect it when I played the game.

  • @CloudyObsession
    @CloudyObsession Před 3 měsíci +2

    I have a deep love and affection for Deadly Premonition and in the past few years there's been like several dozen video essays on it and I haven't watched any of 'em because I have such a personal relationship with and appreciation for the game, but the moment I saw this video I clicked on it immediately. You did not let me down. I knew I could count on you, my favorite son.

I love these deep dive videos but it's also wonderful seeing someone make a full 10000 percent playthrough of a game they know and love. This video was awesome! Just leaving this for some that may want a full lp experience :)

      I wanted to make a similar comment; he put so much effort in his playthrough. He talks about some of the movies Zach talks about, cuts out tedious combat and shows off alternative endings and all side quests. He got the patience of a saint.

  • @danom3572
    @danom3572 Před měsícem +1

    Yes the smoking..I have the 360 version, it has all the cut scenes with the grand daughter, but no dlc or special health bar so I've often wondered if that was normal for this version or well what...I've never had any problems with glitching or what have you and when using my disc on Xbox one it seems smoother but slightly more washed out. Maybe that's me, however it transfered everything without problems and I really prefer this version. I recommend getting the wrench right away and wall crawling shadows drop in 4 to 5 hits running and stop/180 to each end of the hall. She stays on the ceiling wait and shoot her down, run/b evade, when she jumps to the side, wait and smack her with the wrench. Your machine gun and wrench or bar should be one toggle up or down. If you got the guitar it's one hit, Good luck!

  • @eppinizer
    @eppinizer Před 3 měsíci

    An interesting choice of game for a retrospective, Son. I don't think I've ever watched an analyses of Deadly Premonition, so I suppose it was a wise choice too!

  • @picahudsoniaunflocked5426
    @picahudsoniaunflocked5426 Před 2 měsíci

    It's fascinating to just watch Thomas in every scene. Whoever animated him cared. Thomas has some reactions during scenes he doesn't even talk in that are really funny or touching or odd. He feels like a real person*

    Son, it happened again. Some of the first few videos you made on this channel, I commented about how I had just finished playing the games you were showcasing the day before you uploaded the videos of each, the silent hill games in particular I remember. It just happened again. I completed my 5th or 6th playthrough of DP just 2 nights ago.

  • @SlamdalfTheGrey
    @SlamdalfTheGrey Před 3 měsíci

    I bought deadly premonition a few years ago, was curious about it and looking for something new to play. I played about half the game, enjoying it even with its weird issues or design, and then some other game i had been waiting for came out (can't remember what game specifically, maybe Doom Eternal) and i didn't play Deadly Premonition for a year or two, eventually starting it back up last year. I was so glad i did, i was not expecting HALF of the crazy shit i ended up getting into with York, and the final few hours of the game were filled with so many twists and crazy moments that it burned a place into my memory permanently. I'm halfway through playing the prequel now, which i don't like nearly as much as the first game but still find enjoyment in it. I might reinstall the first one now and play through again after watching this video lol

  • @Mark-nh2hs

    If you removed the shooting of the alternative world monsters and had it based totally in the real world with no monsters it reminds me of the game Heavy Rain - I think it was called that.

      The more the merrier tho!
      I love TPTV too, but it's cool to watch different people take on the same subject. It's always interesting to see how they respond, what they focus on, what they ignore, what messages or themes they draw from the games...
      As for TPTV I hope 2024 is the year Canal Studios steps off his d-ck & FINALLY lets him post the Jacob's Ladder video he made a couple years ago as a companion piece to his Silent Hill 2 video. I desperately want to see that, for all of his audience & also for him; he says he's so proud of it & doesn't care if it's monetized, he just wants us top see it.
      Anyways, I'll always watch Son + TPTV. Love 'em both. Will also watch almost anything on Deadly Premonition, too, bc I always learn something new. Not trying to bag on you; just sharing my enthusiasm. I wish you well Happy Year of the Dragon & I hope you find new adventures!

    @SegaCDUniverse Před 3 měsíci

    by the way, I thought the Return had glimpses of being good, but overall was bad. I hated having Dougie for most of the season and thought the ending was shitty. Lynch is old, we won't have a season 4 ever, and went off the reservation too much for me with it. He was better when reigned in during the first two seasons IMO.

  • @stephanieking8299

    • @mitchellgoedken4509

    @LosMSR Před 3 měsíci

    GTA of Terror, IDK this will work, but big surprise FR, you think you are so safe explore, but once you enter in a place, like the museum, D@MN, this game is really spooky. And the plot twist at the end, never want that destiny for that character, but this is a terror game.
    The most scary part, the crashes, lol, the director of this game is a genius, almost at the level of Team Silent.
    If this game will get a remake in the new gen consoles, will be a big rival for Silent Hill, and Resident evil FS.

  • @Some_Guy_87
    @Some_Guy_87 Před 3 měsíci +1

    It's funny - seeing your summary this seems like an amazing game, but back when I played it I was mostly just annoyed. The ending twists were cool, but I hated the whole gameplay (not just the fighting, it seemed in general like the game doesn't respect the player's time), didn't get into the humor and atmosphere, and found the delivery of most story parts lackluster. In general though, I just don't seem to get what the Twin Peaks magic is. Every time a work is compared to it, I end up not liking it, even if the general direction sounds like it would appeal to me. Great love letter!

    But I can't help but notice that you left York a Stinky Detective for longer than necessary. That's not like the Son I know.
