This dude is my new favorite. Finally someone who isn't yelling, pushing try-hard cringe attempts at comedy, etc. Almost like speedrunning ASMR.

When your torch gets low and you had no idea you had to refill your torch or set a new 1, my first time playin that music was so bad sounding it mad it scary for me. I would turn the game off when that happened. It is by far the best sound track to let you know you gonna die if you dont fix your crap lol. Then when I got a bit older I ended up playin it and was like oh okay I have to just light 2 torches and and keep 1 lite and that sound goes away. Then eventually completing the game so many times that speed running it is possible. I had a surge of nostalgia when they remade shadowgate for pc you could play the original or the updated version. I liked both but prefer just the original since it was just imprinted in my brain everythin I needed.

I asked my self, "what is it?" That makes me enjoy watching a mustache cowboy playing an old video game that I don't even get? And then I got it, It was kungfu... The idea of watching kungfu master. Trying to best himself in his art. I remember one time, I go with my mother to a local traditional market when I was a kid, and there I see this young man, selling coconuts. And as he serve his customers he joggles the coconuts like a bartender joggles bottles in bars, I watch him for hour, I asked my self the same question then, "what is it?" It is that wonderful feeling to see someone doing things that they are good at. Much obliged for the show sir. Gin,

@Johnathan Celso Uninvited is the rare game in the kemko trilogy. Uninvited is even more similair to shadowgate than deja vu is. Except instead of a creepy dangerous castle, you play in a haunted mansion, and you are an uninvited guest. Hence the name. Check it out!
