did you know I do a "director's commentary" on every vid for my patreon? This time, I'll be talking MORE great scenes from the game, music choices, and why the hell I keep changing the title/thumbnail: www.patreon.com/JacobGeller

I know that Jacob has said something to the effect that his brand is ā€œguy who sounds like heā€™s on the verge of tearsā€ and while I love the emotional Geller videos, ā€œJacob yelling about how cool something isā€ is also an essential part of his brand

When I was in high school I got to tour one of EAs facility's as part of a field trip. I was gifted a game(dead space 2) for asking a question during the Q and A. Coming from a fairly conservative family who wouldn't let me get T rated games(nonetheless R) I hid the game and only played it late at night after my parents had gone to bed. All I will say is 15 year old me really loved this game but dam was it scary.

Another thing I love about the game is Ellie; she's one of my favorite horror npc's ever. Her introduction has her pointing a gun at you and not trusting you in the least, and she's written well enough that by the time the ending rolls around her actions feel totally deserved and earned. Combined with Issac actually talking, the game had shockingly good character interactions. Also, she doesn't have a love plot! Which would be insane if a dead space game decided to drive an entire game with a love triangle or some nonsense.

The eye scene is even more tense when youā€™re doing a hardcore run and if you mess up you need to start over from the beginning of the game. I remember doing a hardcore run and when I reached this part I immediately remembered ā€œfuck this can instantly kill me!ā€ And doing it slowly and noticing my hand trembling trying to be precise

I donā€™t ever use the term ā€œgave me chillsā€ but when I played this back when it first came out and I saw that the Ishimura was docked at the station, I got chills knowing that Iā€™d have to step back on it. Any kind of media, be that a game or a movie that makes the story revisit a setting that left a lasting impression on you only to throw it back into the current story is a true work of art.

The preschool is the bit that's stuck with me since I played this ten-ish years ago. Not because you're fighting a bunch of mutated kids - I mean, that's rough, but it's also kind of what you expect in a game like this - but the environment itself. This is a place that parents leave their kids, and it is utterly depressing. After the climax fight, you have a denouement scene in the preschool's playground, and.. damn. It's too small, and too sparse, but what really hits me is the decoration: a cheap-looking wall painting of a happy outdoor scene, and a sad little rocket. Kids play there! This is the closest to being outside they've ever been, and it is so goddamn sad. Child-zombies and explodababies are unpleasant, but having the happiest part of the school be so soul-crushingly inadequate is what's still in my head, even before I had a preschooler of my own. I wish I could find an image of it, because it's environmental storytelling at its very best.

Oh god, I've actually had someone put a needle in my eye before (There was a piece of metal stuck in my eye, and the doctor had to use a needle to get it out). I'm torn between being impressed at how accurate that piece felt - you know you can't move, can't blink or the needle will tear your eye open, but the closer it gets to your face the more you panic - and creeped out by my own memories. That's pretty impressive for a game I've never played.

ā€œHey Jacob, what you thinking about?ā€ ā€œDead Space 2ā€™s camera, why?ā€ šŸ¤£ Awesome as always!

I could be mistaken, but with that enormous screen-sized space junk passes in front of you on your flight back to the station, they hid either an LOD model swap there, or loaded a different level. the space junk hides that transition perfectly

God, the list really does go on, doesn't it? I remember adoring this game when I played in high school. For me, it's one of those rare times where you don't realize how monumental something you're experiencing is until much much later. Fuck those screaming bomb necromorphs though, still have nightmares about those xD

The devs really cared and took the time into putting every bit of specific modelling and sound design into that halo jump. I guess you could say their attention to detail was... visceral?

I LOVED going back to the Ishimura because it's been all covered up and sanitized, and because you've gone through the first game, you know EXACTLY what's underneath all of that plastic and tape. Just kind of heightens the experience of returning to your nightmare.

Dead Space trilogy is one the best 2-parters in gaming.

"You NEED to forcefully return limbs to their original owners." is probably the best line I never expected to hear.

"It preserves the survival part of Survival Horror" Well, that one line just completely sold me on this game.
