If the rest of the staff were as committed to producing content as Tricky is this site would be even better. The fact that Patrick is in everything these days is just an indicator that the rest of the staff need to step up their game.

Scoops, I applaud your commitment. Keep it up man.

Woop Woop!

Word up! :D

Dewar's? Dewar's? White Label Dewar's? Not even over ice! How'd you stand it? Turned it off right there. Get yourself a proper scotch and try again. Go for something like Bank Note if you're in the market for a blended scotch sub-$40. Hell, I'll send you a bottle of a decent single malt for your next spoliercast of whatever.

Dewar's? Pah.

:D

(But really, thanks for doing this; I enjoyed the last one quite a bit and I bet this one will be just as good, even if you are drinking Dewar's.)

Sorry Patrick or whatever your name is but you seem to be infringing copyright on "Bag Head the Enraged Critic" from TGWTB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaYvfdVBB-U as seen in the above video.

Honestly I thought you were above this kind of behavour...

Watched about 30 minutes out of interest, but stopped because I have no idea what is going on.

Because the Giantbomb staff watches SOOOOOOOO much fuckin' anime...

Also, Patrick, MAKE THE OTHER GUYS TO SPOILERCASTS. THEY ARE AWESOME. Even if I don't care about the game at hand.

Ah-kah-neh. Not A-Cain, Ah-kah-neh.

I know it's a tiny, tiny thing, but maaan, it got to me. If nothing else because it's such a common name that you hear in so much anime.

I read the gold files while playing the game and I don't think I encountered anything that was spoilery.

I thought they were brilliantly paced, actually. They got me thinking in the right direction and speculating wildly, but every reveal twisted the ideas they had planted just a bit further and was even more shocking.

The one thing I at least guessed, even if I dismissed it like "they can't be this insane" is the post-apocalypse setting and the idea that they weren't on Earth, but only after you get out of the facility for the first time, when they are still trying to pass it for a desert.

No interest in the game, but I hope this Spoilercast style video becomes a thing we see more of.

I'm avoiding spoilers, so can someone just answer one thing for me? Dog food or fine dining?

Bag. . . Head. . .

Oh, I'd forgotten about the "OMG I'm an old man!" reveal entirely. Without taking notes during my playtime with the 999 games, I don't remember half the stuff that happened. I just have the feeling that I got a good amount of enjoyment out of them.

I love 999 and VLR (and Ever17 and Remember11) so much. Ridiculous and intricately connected story craziness is the kind of thing that fascinates me in games, rather than the usual big-budget mindless action game. I'm so glad that there's going to be a third Zero Escape game eventually, and I hope the writer will continue to make these kinds of games!
