- 8 teenagers go up a mountain, how many will come down? Welcome to my first playthrough of Until Dawn, where I have apparently been tasked with the lives of 8 cringy teenagers in a slasher film-inspired choice-based game.
I play on PS5 for those wondering.
Thank you guys so much for watching!

![Making my dream come true 🥰 | Let's Play Hogwarts Legacy [Part 1]](/img/n.gif)
I already know it's coming so here it is: Yes, I will be continuing rdr2, but I will also be playing other things in the mean time 😁

@@gabrielvasile9377 where'd she say she's play dbh? :o
@@headwound her community post
Damn, imagine you are dumb enough to prank someone as they are opening themselves up to an intimate moment with their crush (who's in on the prank), you're basically at fault that person dies because of your stupid prank and then have the audacity to return all: "Hiiiiii besties!"
I'm sorry, but I would be so guilt ridden beyond sanity, I wouldn't even be able to get on a bus to join their little anniversary-get-together.
"It's just a prank!", Ma'am, that's how you create future serial-killers.
the prank itself is less important...what's more important is the circumstances around it and how each person felt about it or if they were involved in it.
Sam: She NEVER agreed in the prank and didn't want any part of it, which is why she called the others jerks, she was close fiends with Beth, Hanna and Josh.
Josh: he was too drunk and out of it to know what was going on.
Chris: same as josh
Ashley: although she participated she felt the most bad and guilty, she never intended for it to be cruel or hurtful.
Matt: To be honest it's hard to tell what Matt felt, judging by his personality i'm guessing he went along out of peer pressure...he doesn't seem to have a strong personality.
Michael: If you look deeper at Mike's personality he probably didn't mean for it to be harsh, he was just having a bit of fun (not that that makes it ok).
Emily: I honestly think this bi%$ was the only one truly to blame...she is smart enough to know better, clearly, but she ENJOYS being mean.
Jess: Yeah jess can be a bi%$ but if she gets any kind of pass it's because she is the opposite of Emily...she is not very smart and insecure so she overcompensates...she probably just went along with it because everyone else did.
@@IDyce88 it's heavily implied that Jess thought of the whole prank. She wrote the letter, left it in a place Hannah would read it and when questioned by Sam she tries excusing it by saying she's "Looking out for my girl Em".
@@wayfaring_stranger2215 that was Emily not Jess...Emily was Mike's boyfriend back then (1 year ago) Jess wasn't. she would have more incentive to want to prank Hanna. plus emily is the one who said "it was just a prank" afterward as well. Jess hardly said anything so her view isn't really clear. The difference between Emily and Jess is that Emily actually is smart and confident...she has the potential to be a better person...she proves that later when she survives in the mines...Jess is insecure and is nothing but talk...big mouth but no confidence. i can justify feeling more sorry for Jess...because she isn't as smart or secure...but Emily...if you have all that potential and still be a bi%$ just for the sake of it...screw that. there is no evidence who wrote the letter...when jess said that she was jut taking about the conversation they were having. if you have played through this multiple times you know jess is insecure, not very smart and just talks big but emily can hold her own even if she is a massive bi%$.
@@IDyce88Jess was the one who wrote the note and she even said “im just looking out for my girl em” so it sounds like shes the one who came up with it.
@@IDyce88why’re you defending jess so much? she made the prank, doesnt mean anything just because shes insecure.
Knowing Cyn she’ll save everyone she wants and have the mystery solve before she’s even halfway through the game.
The best advice i got playing this game when it first came out (without spoiling) was to play the characters and make decisions the way they would make them, not what you want them to.
What?
The most baffling thing about this game is that the developer assumed you would want to keep them alive after five minutes of their banter.
You kinda hate them all at the beginning but come to like them by the end, at least I did.
The only one that wasnt a complete jerk was Sam.
@HonorThyGsmer. It's a teen slasher story, my dude 😂. Some characters are intentionally written to be obnoxious/jerks to encourage the player to fuck up or to let someone they don't like die (following the slasher genre formula).
@@Drewe223 *cough cough* Emily *cough cough*
(but that's just my opinion, if you like her then that's fine)
@@emeraldwitch4817 I really liked Emily by the end. She showed herself to be smart and resourceful. Plus, "Understand the palm of my hand, BITCH!" is just an iconic line lmao
the analyst sessions are always my favorite to watch people play
😂The analyst stays asking the real quesions. Like, sir, we do not have time to focus on my anxieties let's get back to the story.
45:57 "The root of my anxiety?? Sir, you're asking me to get deeper than what I'm willing to for a video game"
Lol
This game is legit good. Lots of genuinely well done character development and a fun mystery
I don't understand how the people who made this went on to make the Dark Pictures games... such a steep drop in quality IMO
@@TheQeltar I really enjoyed Men of Medan, the story was a bit weak but I enjoyed that the problem wasn't supernatural and felt like it had a fair amount of replayabitlity. I cannot by any means say the same about Little Hope. Talk about a let down
@@TheQeltar well Until Dawn and The Quarry are longer games that have more years of work put into them, meanwhile the anthology series games are made in shorter spans of time to get them out annually
The 'Dark Pictures Anthology' games are lower-budgeted, short games (3 to 4 hs).
'Until Dawn' and 'The Quarry' are high-budgeted, long games (10 hs or so).
Of course there's a "step down" in the quality in the TDPA games compared to UA and TQ (what we've seen so far), they don't have nearly the same budget and resources.
@@TheQeltar They left Sony and joined Bandai namco. That's what happened. From the biggest 1st party game publisher to the lowest tier crap factory.
In the prologue to the game Beth and Hannah always fall to their deaths no matter what choices you make. That’s why Dr. Hill says “No one can change what happened last year”.
I wouldn’t have dropped my sibling either . I would’ve told her to try to aim for deep snow when we fall but that’s probably a pipe dream to think we’ll live
As cringey as the typical stereotypes are, the game itself is really good! And love seeing all the different actors that you know from different series and movies 😊
" As cringey as the typical stereotypes are " lol, compared to what today teens do on Tiktok and Instagram they're pretty cool and has actual characters which todays teens and young adults lack of.
@@finnofzaun9209 Very true haha
Looking back at the 80s,90s,2000s horror movies the characters fall right in line with the genre
"I have caused domestic issues, my apologies" 😂😂😂 That line made me crack up, omg why is it such a mood with this game lmfaooo-
I definitely like this game better than any of the Dark Pictures Anthology games that have come out so far, but it is very evident that Until Dawn is the spiritual predecessor of that whole series. I'm glad to see you play it.
As someone who has played this game at least once every Halloween for several years in a row, I feel comfortable assuring you that there was nothing you could have changed about what happened with the twins. That whole section was a tutorial and your decisions didn't really matter during.
I think House of Ashes is the best one in the anthology so far but even that one isn’t as good as Until Dawn 😅
Sanatorium in this case is probably not as a mental hospital but a place of recovery for tuberculosis patients. It was recommended a calm place with clean air.
I've watched way too many of these, but I've never seen anyone have Ashley deny Matt the binoculars/viewfinder thing. Seems like everyone usually wants to snitch on Emily.
This game was so dope, played it with my roommate back in 2017 have some epic memories with this
“ cringey teens” you could have just said “ teens”. even when I was a teen myself I found my peers to be cringey.
Hoo boy you're in for a treat with this one. Until dawn started it all with the anthology.
Me and a bunch of friends got together one day and ended up playing this. Each of us chose a character to try and keep alive and one to try and kill. It went... interestingly...
Either these stereotypical teens are written to be this bad, or we have a serious case of "kids written by people who are definitely not kids"
Dr. Hill is the cult leader dude from the Netflix show longmire lol
I lucked all the way out! I joined the channel at such a good time. Red dead 2 AND Until Dawn?!?!?! You have to be kidding me. I will enjoy every moment of this.
Until dawn is a great game, this is one of the best games from them in my opinion.
Until Dawn is its own separate game, it's not a part of the anthology series
@@beccazach Really? I don’t know why but I always associated it with the series, or at least kicked it off. Ok then, noted
Cyn is too smart for this game. She will save everyone
20:06 I like your breakdown of Josh's video lol. Josh went full James Cameron Titanic oscar speech. : D
Welp, I guess Mr Robot is having another crazy hallucination
Until Dawn!! I LOVE watching people play this game. It's very fun, b-horror trash. You're gonna have a fun time with it :)
You should play L.A. Noire. It uses similar actor's face motion capture.
Yooo... I appreciate you playing Until Dawn miss! Imo is one of the best games ever made! And it is one my favorites games of all time. .
I clicked on the notification to watch as soon as it popped up. I’m excited to see how you play the game, even if you end up getting most of the characters killed 🤣😌
You have earned yourself a new subscriber by playing my favorite game to watch people play through. I haven't gotten to play this game yet since I don't have a PlayStation, but it's near the top of my bucket list.
I'm so glad I came across your channel through RDR2 because I love your commentary so much :) I'm excited to see your reaction to this game and the other games that you've mentioned are up and coming!
Thank you so much for your analytical playthrough of RDR2. To bad at the end Dutch didn't just sit down next to Arthur at the end and prop him up and just say "I'm sorry son" or at least thank you son..Also Thank you for this game I think you and your brain will enjoy it
In the beginning it's hard to like most of the characters. Sam was the only likeable character in the beginning of the game.
What about Chris ? He's pretty good too in my opinion 🙂
I disagree. Sam was okay but boring, while I like Mike and Jess more because they're characteristic.
@@oanaalina69 I forgot he was also not in on the prank. So yes Chris too.
@@finnofzaun9209 Eh Mike and Jess were pretty mean up until they got attacked. Plus the prank they pulled was not ok. But I do think they all redeem themselves by the end of the game.
@@finnofzaun9209 I love you ❤
I find Sam boring as well !
A very pleasant surprise!
You’ve been playing a lot of great games lol I wish I could go through them for the first time again
Good game and the choices and using the controller features more is 1 of the best I've seen, the choices have a real impact more than those on mass effect. Good story and mystery and I only managed to get 2 killed 👍
Now THIS is the game I was waiting for
I remember watching Achievement Hunter playing it, best line was after Mike scared them. Response was last time you pulled a prank 2 people died
Oh nice! I played Until Dawn once and enjoyed it. Not sure I'd ever revisit it myself-even though, presumably, each playthrough can be very different-because I dislike feeling pressure to make different decisions than the ones I made the first time around, so I'll enjoy seeing how Cynthetic's play differs from mine. And I'm pretty sure she'll have a bit of a different take, just from the 50ish minutes we see here.
It's not a long game, but definitely a good palate cleanser type of game. A nice emotional backing away from emotional RDR2 ending, lol.
I’m always up for watching people play through this game! I love seeing Peter Stormare! (Dr.Hill)
Sorry for tuning in a little bit late synthetic I was painting and I saw your notification but I am 15 minutes late. But I'm here I'm glad I can make it in time and watch you play this really awesome game!
Ohhh! I've been waiting for this. Love this game!
This game is legit good.
Leave it up to cyn to cause domestic issues. I mean did you see the time she antagonized that stranger in camp and lost honor.
Haha nice jump scare.
I never played this game but I noticed something that seemed weird but I don’t want to point it out just in case I am correct.
This wouldn’t normally be a game I am interested in but I don’t mind watching how this unfolds.
I adore Until Dawn. It's easily in my top 5 all time favourite games. Look forward to Part 2.
Once you have played through UD please can you do Hidden Agenda. Another brilliant game by Supermassive. Style of UD transfered over.
you might wanna disable the motion controller and use default style. you might regret it later when things got intense
Love your reactions, and how you play games. Currently waiting for the next Last of Us 2 video so i'm here!
I have never played this game either. This will give me a taste. If it looks fun I will play it.
I love 90s style horror movies and this game is heavily based on them.
Awesome game.
Peter Stormare (Dr. Alan Hill) is brilliantly creepy in this game. A perfect casting choice
Good luck on your play-through, its a great game! Using the motion controls is prob gonna go poorly is my guess, :p
I saw this pop up and I just went “YES! Hell yeah! Hell yes! Yes! YES!”
*clicks video, ready to chill with chocolate*
One of my all time favorite games. Wish I could erase all memory of it and play it all over again, experience it all from the beginning.
OMG I played this game such a long time ago!! It brings back so many memories, not my favorite game of all times but still it was pretty fun
Until dawn was made when they (supermassive) were with Sony. It has a way bigger team and budget plus all of the sony in house recourses behind it. Why they left sony to make games for mediocrity factory namco bandai is beyond me but the drop in quality evident in their later games is very noticable.
Hey cyn I love your content you are totally killing it! On the community tab I saw that you are about start resident evil 2 on twitch. Unfortunately my work schedule doesn't allow me catch those streams, so are the re 2 episodes going to be coming to CZcams?
Slowly but surely they will be on CZcams at some point. The simplest way to watch is through Twitch Highlights though! If you click on my Twitch profile and go to videos most of my previous streams are permanently saved as highlights there. The highlights include chat and are quicker to access then waiting for me to edit the vod.
A SPN fan!!!! Omg I knew I liked you for a reason!
3:03 - Save the cheerleader, save the world
Be sure to watch "events of the past" regukarly by pressing triangle in the totem menu screen.
cynthetic i enjoy your videos i just recently found you i am enjoying RDR2 series you are doing
I'm kind of amazed that many people find this game scary. It was sort of fun though.
i get scared easily but i also LOVE horror so maybe that’s why haha
CYNNN another good game.. nice nice i played this about a year ago.... fun times, interesting game but fun
Thats funny the death song also makes me think of supernatural.
I know there's a way to finish this game without anyone dying (there are tons of videos showing how) but I say...where's the fun in that? This is inspired by slasher flicks. What's a slasher flick without a body count?
Well let's see how many people you will save on your first try 😁 After you're done with the game, you should definitely try a playthrough where you try to kill everyone, because there so many ways to kill them 😁
"...a person with a machete!"
It's ok, it's just Danny Trejo, he'll help us!
There is a setting in the options menu that makes the clues easier to read.
You should play Visage. Really scary game. I’d love to see your reaction.
I always found the face expression really wierd and sily espacially on the Dr. Hill...
Hope you enjoy it, looking forward to your reactions.
Oh I'm going to enjoy this
This is a good Horror game. Should Check out Manhunt next. Maxpayne3, La Noire are also good short linear games.
Is that Grant Ward? i bet he is the killer, he can't fool me... again.
Oh hell yes, i really like this game. This will be a blast!
Seriously! It was the perfect choice after RDR2. It has gotten me super excited for The Quarry.
Ooo this game!
It was just a prank, Haaaan!
Great video, Cyn!
You're correct, the "don't move" was the original version of the heartbeat mini game from the Dark Pictures games. They changed it because most people would cheat the "don't move" by putting their controller on their desk.
A few things to keep in mind:
While the characters have stats, they don't really play into the game at all so don't worry about them too much. Things will increase and decrease seemingly randomly. Personally, I don't think it was a fully implemented system and they just never removed it.
On the totem screen, be sure to press "X" to see the Events of the Past. The game mentions that collecting totems will reveal those events, but never explicitly tells you to push X to see them so a lot of people miss it for much of the game.
When you're given two choices for actions or paths, the "safe/slow" one will give you more time for the quick time events while the "fast/risky" option makes the QTs faster. Some of them will give you a slightly different bit of story, but the end result is always the same.
Try Heavy Rain (think you might like it) it’s one of my favourite games
im only now starting the gameplay, so idk what you gonna but, but i hope that you do something, that NOBODY EVER DOES.
in that moment that the game give you a decision of "drop your sister, or let go of the branch" for me, the best decision is "neither" i wouldnt drop my sister, and i wouldnt also fall to my death, i would just wait for the guy to grab me.... (i know what happens btw, but i still would like to see ther people doing it)
One of my favorite games. It's great
Playing Until Dawn for the first time was an awesome experience. Learning the mystery of the mines was exhilarating
I know this is a month later but please tell me that you checked your butterfly effects and clues in your next videos 🙂
Also I hope that you managed to keep all the characters alive .
( especially Josh and Jess ) ! 😊
What a weird coincidence, I just got done playing The Dark Pictures Little Hope a few days ago.
Yoooo you should check out the Dark Pictures Anthology!
Cyn u if u like horror games u should for sure check out dead space remake and the calistal protocal if u love scares and jump scares check those out they r scary asf
Until Dawn is a masterpiece
By far one of the best if not the best horror game of the time being.
Hell yeah!
Until dawn it's very awesome 🙀🎉 more jumspcare 😂 haha
well at least it's not another a souls game...
Ol cyn don't like to get down in the snow?!?!
lol this is gonna be good
😅 Love the title.
Oh yeah I like this game!!!
Have you thought about giving Outlast a go at some point?
Yes! Maybe around Halloween though.
😂, como te asustaste Syn
You got them lil girls killt!!!!!
Is this the video game equivalent of 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'?
Kinda. There's more to this game, tho.
I forgot how cringy this game was. lmao!! Still a classic though!
