Anatoly: F is for- Karin: FOOD! Anatoly: …I was going to say “friends.” Karin: So we were both right.
-
Cannibalism isn't even the most uncomfortable aspect of this game, which in itself is unusual.
-
As a Polish person I rlly like this episode. It's so cool to see stories of your childhood be noticed and your folklore aknowleged.
-
im polish and its so nice to see some one talk about slavic culture lol even if it is about cannibalism. my mum told me about baba yaga when i was little and every night i had nightmares of the cabin with chiken legs and i would be scared to go near the woods
-
Monika really needs to take more care of herself. Knives aren't healthy if they're inside of your chest!
-
Game: Seems innocent MatPat: Now this looks like a job for me
-
I’d like to point out that Baba Yaga really doesn’t kill the innocent or the bullied, often acting as a mother or grandmother (hence the Name Baba Yaga). She’s basically the cannibalistic avengers.
-
Polish person here! Zakopane in Polish means buried
-
Fun side note: Zakopane means "buried" in Polish
-
As much as I like this game, I really wish the creator would make a new ending (non-canon of course) where Gregor, Anatoly, and Mariah survive. For what is a pretty short game for a visual novel, I grew quickly attached to the three of them, especially Gregor.
-
0:12 Monika: "I've been watching y'know, through the screen" Me: You've been watching me when I watch Netflix at the bathtub?
-
I'm from not that far away of these sites, and I remember that being a kid my grandma would scare me with stories of Baba Jaga and her cottage on a chicken leg. Really happy that they get to wider public, and they enjoy them too.
-
Fun fact: Baba Yaga also rides in a mortar which she drives with a pestle. These are used for grinding herbs or spices. Ties into the cooking theme!
-
As a Ukrainian it was so interesting to watch this episode and see how you talk about our history and folklore. Can't wait for the second part
-
Matpat: you have a spirit of Baba Yaga passed on to you Me as a Ukrainian: uhh.. that’s not really how Baba Yaga works…
-
I'm surprised you didn't comment on Rasberry's dialogue about the storm being our fault for this theory. I do love these two videos, and these urged me to get the game for myself. These are well done!
-
I love the Slavic representation here, as a polish woman and someone who grew up with these stories and loves mythology and old tales thus is a joy to watch ^^
-
Matpat: Starts talking about cooking the Baba Yaga in an oven Me who grew up with an alteration of that story: Hey I know that one!
-
Game Theory is getting better at these Monika intros, but how fitting she should be taken out by another visual novel character. xD
-
“And Karin, who is a Karen.” That had me tho (girl stop complaining about my bland salad)
