I'm sorry, but if a serial killer ever started quoting Blame It On The Boogie in front of me, I would lose all ability to take him seriously ever again. Doesn't even matter what he did, I wouldn't be able to stop thinking "Oh what, you're gonna tell me to beat it now? Am I fighting for my life inside a killer thriller tonight?" _"Maybe your enemy doesn't exist... maybe it's all in your head..."_ "Oh, so you're saying I'm starting with the man in the mirror?"

I kind of love that the explanation for anything supernatural is just that Keith is Not Okay. Like, we've established that demons and ghosts and fairies exist in this world, but they legitimately had nothing to do with Boogie's game. There were no monsters or randomly-appearing graffiti, Keith is just not a stable person.

in bad end 4 when boogie says "looks like you did things out of order, detective. but still, not bad." it sounds like he's talking straight to the player. like, imagine you're playing this game for the first time, going in blind, and you happen to miss a few of the secret scenes just on accident. and then the boogie basically tells you "oops, so close! but you're still missing something! :^)" like that would be so frustrating but at the same time it hints to the player that they need to find more information in order to get the true ending? which is pretty clever

I love how the characters match their "monster" and their setting perfectly. David was a man who thought he was worth nothing and had nothing to lose, and the crooked man worked hard to show david that there he has so much to lose and when the time finally came, David gets shown that people care, and he decides to live his life to the fullest. Sophie was a girl with insomnia who was bullied with so many repressed desires (as shown by Lullaby), so the Sandman's world was the perfect area for her to gain some confidence while still being wrapped in a somewhat safe atmosphere. And now there's Keith. A dark castle and a mystery for a stone-faced detective. He protects as many as he can. I havent finished the video and its been a while since I watched the other videos, so sorry if I got anything wrong.

Yes, but I do believe op meant the main story and how the Boogie (literally the silliest villain name, who's next, his brother Disco?) Is a serial killer with a gimmic and not a ghost or fey creature, and that, discounting the small Sophie related sandman stuff, its the least supernatural game with a normie as the main antagonist/driving force, and the ghosts are in the characters head because he's haunted more by memories than actual spirits.

@@ajiprnk4821 Brendon never died at all. They explained this outright in the true ending. He sliced off the head of a doll done up to _look_ like him in the dim lighting. The person who shot Keith in ending one appears to be Keith himself - "the Boogie in your head" - which implies that Keith takes his own life while hallucinating. Ending 2 is... uh... really unclear, but from the looks of it, Keith returns to the safe room, finds everyone gone (killed?), and then hallucinates being at home with his son as he bleeds out - like Helena's "happy dream" from ending 4.

One the things i love the most about this game most people don’t notice the first time they watch/play the game me included, is the fact that the real boogie man enters the fray and messes with keith multiple times and even attacks sophie out of bitterness towards her, even leading towards keith’s demise in one of the bad endings. What makes it fun is that if you realize it and study certain scenes as well as the true ending you can go back and know which one is going after him at different points and i really enjoy that aspect of the game.

My solution is a sorta notes mechanic, so if you interact with something you can't use or do anything with but will later on, something in a menu will be added so it's like. "Door with red knob is cracked" so that way if your lost you could use the notes to act as a sort of guideline.

One thing I really like about this series is that every installment is a very distinct subgenre of horror. Crooked Man is the epitome of dark, self reflective horror akin to Silent Hill. Even "David Hoover" is like, the most SH name I've ever heard. Sandman has a few of those dark fairytale vibes, closer to something like Pan's Labyrinth with a bit of Yume Nikki mixed in. Boogieman is straight up something like the first season of True Detective, plus maybe a few original Alone in The Dark vibes with the mansion and an investigator. Hanged Man... Idfk what it was going for, but it was a strong vibe.

to be fair i don't think he was a "mad man" I think the boogie man invaded Branden to play his game on real people because " Fighting the whole world is too hard" So he chose a group of people and played with them which is why he had no problem when his original victims changed on him getting replaced with keith and his wife, Its also why keith saw things others didn't because he was the most vulnerable to the boogieman trying to hide his worst nightmares under the rug.

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, 'If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.'. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- 'Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your comment gave me cancer anyway.

the voice acting really ruins this game for me. it's not even that they sound bad, it just completely takes away from the atmosphere somehow. i guess it's handy if you're watching a playthrough though?? i think the only character out of the entire cast that really benefitted from having a voice was the boogie man, his voice work was really effective and actually enhanced every scene he was in

I just can't get over the voice acting in this game. The game is good and the dialogue is well written, but it just falls flat when someone is reading it. It's not the fault of the voice actors (most of them), but they just aren't professional. They can't offer the wide ranges or truly convey the depth of the parts, so it's just distracting to hear. I feel kinda bad saying this, as I'm sure they tried to do this as best as they could. But regardless of that, it just doesn't fit into the game. I wasn't necessary. But it also shows the passion and love poured into the game as well. Despite these being one of his first few games, he really tried to expand and try to increase the quality of this game. I think voice acting should only be done if it's done well. If it's done poorly, it really diminishes the quality of the game, as in this case.
