The requirement of content warnings on re-releases of surprise horror games is one of my least favorite trends. The console release of Doki Doki Literature Club did it too, and... like, okay, I get it, that game deals with some really intense shit, but man, the twist hitting you out of nowhere was a crucial part of that experience. Now newcomers are just gonna be like "Okay, I know it's gonna pull the rug out from under me, it's just a matter of when" 😕

​@@BenersantheBread The original PC version had a warning that said "this game is not intended for children" or whatever, but it was vague enough that it didn't give anything away. That's why Dan was all excited, he was thinking it was going to turn into a porn game at some point. The console versions outright say "this is a horror game that contains graphic depictions of violence". So anyone going into it blind already knows it's not what it seems.

@@jbwarner8626 I wonder if it would be possible to implement some kind of content warning filter directly on people's gaming machines, that the user could then set to their liking. All games would be legally required to include comprehensive content warnings that show by default on startup, but upon startup, if the user sets some content warnings to "don't show", those warnings are omitted specifically for that user. So for instance, if a horror enjoyer goes to their content warning settings and sets the "blood" "gore" "jumpscares" and "psychological horror" to "don't show", any game that normally contains these content warnings will not display these warnings, meaning the user will still be surprised by surprise horror games.

As a Baldi expert (sad, I know...) you're both right and you're both wrong. Baldi hears the DOOR that you open to the Notebook, but he doesn't hear the Notebook unless all questions are answered incorrectly. So in theory he knows where you are both times. If you use WD-NoSquee to silence the door, he won't know where you are though. This trick does not work on BAD MATH since he hears the Notebook directly.

As someone who's worked at Target during the peak of this game's popularity, I can confirm they sold Bladi toys during that time

Idk if they will read this for next time but I'll put it here anyways. The quarters can be used on vending machines (right click while having it selected) Blue Sodas can be used to block/push baldi if he gets too close Scissors are used on the jump rope girl, as soon as she catches you and forces you to play, that's the opportunity to use it and snap her rope. Chocolate bar instantly refills your energy bar For the characters: Principal doesn't catch you if you aren't running, using soda, eating chocolate and entering the faculty room on his line of sight The one on wheels (forgot his name) is friendly, you can use him to push you around at surprising speed through the halls. (If he pushes you to a window in a room, you'll instantly bust through, but at a cost of Baldi hearing that) The bully will only serve as blocking your path and will never move unless a long period of time has passed, the principal is nearby to catch him, or you sacrifice an item (this is randomized for whatever he takes) Sweep guy is not a threat, he simply drags everyone around if they are caught (Unless you're very unlucky for him to bring baldi extremely close to you or if he takes you straight to him.) I may have forgotten a few stuff but yeah it's pretty much it so far at least
