​@@Just_An_ObserverI like the idea of a protagonist being kidnapped and having no choice but to partake in the horror.

I understand why people might've been disappointed with the ending, because of course we wanted to see him succeed. But I agree that the nature of these eldritch horror games often leaves very little for happy endings and I felt like the game earned it's ending, after all it makes it very clear that once a character hears the song they are actively losing time.

I saw the Walter Sullivan and thought "Huh, Silent Hill" and then TOLUCA LAKE hit me in the face. Nice homages.

I felt like this was finally a good depiction of the genre.

Despite the age of any game you cover, I actually genuinely appreciate the spoiler warnings. Because even though this game is 4 years old, I literally have never heard of it until this video. This game is extremely interesting and I also appreciate that Harry typically covers the "good" endings in these games (aka the "everyone lives" endings)

Ngl, you covering lovecraftian games (Call of Cthulhu, Sinking City, also including Dredge) is a delight now that I’m also invested in the Malevolent Podcast (which I got into after watching your video on Baby in Yellow) 🙈

I don't have any KZread notifications on so just deciding to watch KZread and having Harry's video show up (posted 30 minutes ago) is very exciting. God i love this channel. I don't enjoy playing videogames but so many of them have such interesting stories. This channel truly fulfills my interests perfectly.

Finally, a gift from the lord... Another Gaming Harry video... Thank you v.much. Not only is your content amazing but I love your voice. Its very calm yet informing. Love it... ❤🎉

I loved this game. The atmosphere was creepy. The perma death mechanic made me very anxious every time I heard something. Just what you want from a horror game. This underrated gem needs more notice.

I'm so torn about this game- the buggy puzzles can make it so frustrating to play, but there is SO much to like about the atmosphere and story. You did a fantastic job explaining the story!

this is such an underrated gem so thank you for covering it on your channel!

Lately I'd been remembering this game vividly, like all i remember is it's a horror game where light is kinda sorta important, one of the playable characters probably looks like Feng Min from DBD, and the playable character can be killed by other playable characters due to intertwining story part and misunderstanding / miscommunication. Thanks a lot for covering it

Thanks for covering this one, I didn't get to play it, but I'm mad, I'll explain. I'm a writer and I was working on a story before this came out about a music box that a sister finds under her dead sisters floorboards and she becomes obsessed, it's like this and a little inspired by The Tell Tale Heart, then this game came out and I was like FUCK, back to the drawing board!

Thank you for covering this game. I've waited so long for an explanation!

Just found your channel recently, but already you’re one of my favorite KZreadrs! High-quality is always man!

I remember disliking the ending so much. It may have been a good ending to wrap up the story, but going through all that trouble just for the MC to die felt like a slap in the face.

I love these videos man, always a treat when they come out

Its my day off, been binging all vids and shows i miss during work week, havent slept yet, was about to go to sleep, the GamingHarry uploads a new vid so must watch it b4 going to sleep THANKS HARRY!!!

Man I always love videos from Gaming Harry. I dont know what it is. Lots of youtubers doing the same thing but you do it very good. Hopefully something new and really scary next time.

Your content is the perfect blend of deeply engaging and relaxing. Thanks for all the work you put in!

The first time I watched the ending years ago it made my jaw dropped so low. I didn't expect that kind of ending and I felt so bad for Daniel and previous/future victims. Like whoever hear the song the presence will most likely get them so they'll join Daniel 1 day unless they kill themselves first I guess :/

I watched a twitch friend play this a couple of years ago. I really dug (although could seem a little unforgiving maybe?) the perma-death character mechanic and the atmosphere and puzzles. Solid horror game :D

I have only played a few games harry covers but I enjoy them just as much as the ones I haven’t played. I love these videos keep up the good work.

Me too. It’s realistic too, for a couple who loved each other but one fell into addiction in hard times. She HAD to end the marriage even if it hurt her to do so, but now that he’s been sober for a long time, I’m sure he’s acting like the man she fell in love with, so it’s much easier to have a friendship when he has beaten his addiction and has grown as a person. Even if it is impossible romantically anymore, it makes sense that they are still close friends after all they’ve been thru together! :) I appreciated this detail of the story as someone whose ex fiancee turned to drugs and is now recovered.

Love all of the resident evil references throughout the game lol. The one file with Jill, Wesk, Chris, and Barry(?) was my favorite

I really enjoyed playing this game when it came out. It's a bit rough around the edges, but you can tell the developers put their hearts into it.

The game is already 4 years old? I remember it just coming out.. time go’s fast😅 It’s such a great horror game

As someone who has actually read Lovecraft's stories I can say that a surprisingly large amount of them do not end with the protagonist going mad. Just of the top of my head: The Shunned House, The Thing on the Doorstep, The Dunwich Horror, The Whisper in the Darkness, The Cats of Ulathar, The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, The Colour out of Space, The Terrible Old Man, At the Mountains of Madness, Pickman's Model, The Horror at Red Hook, and the whole Dream Cycle.

Thanks for playing all the games that I’m too scared to play. This one had especially good lore. Great job, as always.

omg thank you for doing this! all the youtubers I watched this on didnt finish the game sadly. I can finally know the story

I was looking forward to this video for a while thank you for you’re hard work

Its always a good day when a new Lore and Order video comes out!

Was literally just thinking about how I was hoping for a lore and order video on this yesterday

My jaw dropped the first time I watched its ending years ago. I played until ep 3 before I chickened out and stopped playing lol. So I had to watch others' playthroughs. Now I'm excited to watch the whole explanation made by you. Love your narration and voice!

Dude you are one of the best with the deep cuts

naming her ariadne is probably a reference to the greek myth. its not a 1 to 1, but ariadne was the one who gave theseus the twine so he'd be able to navagate the labrynthe, so having her be the one to hold the music box/es(which seem to be its main way to cross over to 'our' side, and get victims) is very clever! However, she could also be seen as the antithesis of her name, as she lures people into the Presence's labrynth, and then cuts them off from the 'our' side, making them stuck with it.

Love your videos bro

A brand new chapter with new lore is out with the slender the arrival remake. Do you want to check it out? They call them extended chapters, I don't know if there will be more.

I love these break downs~ Would like to put in a consideration of doing a Shadow of Destiny/ Shadow of Memories video? I feel like it has a good story with multi twists in it and murder. Since its to do with time travel it's also interesting from that pov.

Loved this game as a fan of Lovecraft stories and Alone in The Dark games, such an experience

Honey get the popcorn there's a new Harry vid

So excited for THIS video! Fell in love with the game when I watched it on CJU's channel (I'm too faint hearted to brave the game myself), and it's been one of my indie horror faves ever since! Perhaps it's even THE fave. Tops anything Lovecraft-inspired in my book.

This game is giving me big Fatal Frame/Project Zero vibes. Which... Now that I think about it, Fatal Frame would be a good series for a Lore and Order.

Hey there, Since “Slay the Princess” finally is out in full (and I’m extremely hype over it, partially because how could a TMA-podcast fan not be?) I was wondering whether you might do a Story Explained on “Slay the Princess”, given its story is out in full now with all possible routes and outcomes. Another Game where I’m really curious about the Story is “Killer Frequency”, I’m just bringing it up because you are one of the most thorough horror KZreadrs when it comes to storylines, the amount of research and attention to detail you put in is impressive and always a delight Your channel is actually one of two that made me care for horror video games at all in the first place (I’m a scaredy cat) So, uh, much respect, best wishes, take care

I love this game, very fun and tense

that pronunciation of byzantine hit me like a truck lmao, never heard it that way

This was the first horror game I ever watched, I loved it, and I don't know why. I haven't thought about it for years, and it's a little strange to think about it again, but I thank you for the video, anyways.

I loved this game. No joke I had to look up most of the puzzles they were just too hard for me. But amazing game amazing story super spooky

Do you think you could take a look at the new game Supernormal? Seems interesting, supposed to have taken a lot from Kojima’s PT

This game is so criminally underrated. 5:06 This is really cool: Alexander actually knows the Hushers and will recognise the girl here while everybody else is understandably all “huh? Who are you?”.

This is one of the best horror games ever made and severely underrated because of how hard it is so stoked to find a video of the story!

Hey, I actually played this one! Really tense playing them yourself - always keeping in mind where the hiding spots are, listening at doors to make sure you won't die the second you open them. Fun times.

I've missed your opening to this series!

So was there any way to escape after listening to the music box or was it game over after listening to it. If it was then why go through all the trouble of making her agent send the music box, it would have been way easier to just broadcast it worldwide right?

Love the vids! I use them as background noise as I’m doing things. Do you think you’ll cover the newest indie horror game Shipwrecked 64? It seems jam packed with secrets.

9:53 you can't fool us, that's HK-47's voice right there 😂

I quite liked this game. I had something interesting about it, and had this chain effect, whatever happened to the other character the other character will find out or will be affected.

I agree with you fully on the ending. Other than being a long time fan of all things eldritch and knowing how those stories typically end, I saw that last drawing from Ariadne and I just KNEW. I don't really know how anyone could see that and not instantly realize a panel like that labeled "this is something which MUST come to pass" meant doom. But I still didn't see that *personal* horror touch coming. I was awed. It made everything that much more poignant, and dreadful. I'm so sorry, Sophie. So sorry.

I would love rules of rose lore by you!!❤️

From the moment they heard the music box their fates were sealed, they may have tried different ways to stop it but they all failed.

So that’s why it was so familiar…Chris from CJUGames has already played this…thank u for the detailed discussion of the lore …maybe have Lempo go next as well? Maybe i missed some of the lore there

Sillent Hill Reference at 8:15 Walter Sullivan is the antagonist (or protagonist) for Silent Hill 4: The Room

For me, its the best horror game. No necessary hide and seek or somewhat related to other horror games. Nice story too

This seems familiar with the lore of 40k when Fulgrim and Maraviglia performed Slaanesh song to the crowd making the people go crazy and well pretty much messed up happened.

This game was truly amazing and I'm glad it didn't fly under your radar.

I missed the intro reel for Lore and Order!!!

I listen to this while I make the hour drive to work

Not the best graphics, animations are weak But boy,the atmosphere,the incredible plot. These kind of games are so rare nowadays

Omg I’ve been waiting for you to do it on this one! I couldn’t finish the game bc it was so boring and I was like, I’ll just wait until Gaming Harry does it lol. Thanks for these amazing videos.

I think it's funny you can play this game as characters that don't know anything about the story going on and are semi random 3rd parties.

finally!

Really wanted to love this game and get into it but alas I had the DL PS4 version and at one point had it glitch to where I couldn't get past a spot - it's been a few years so I don't fully remember where, I just remember researching and seeing it was an issue for other people and the team would not release a patch :-( The story from what I had gotten through was amazing, I just wish I could have enjoyed all of it.
