Let's Play Black Lodge - 2 - Not What They Seem

[ssw11]

I don't remember

If I posted this be

Fore.

BEHOLD

A PALE HORSE;

That's besides the point and beside the point, did you know? That David Lynch did not write after the second season?

[poopskinTheLiar]

MEANWHILE

[masic88]

Annie?

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Are you okay, Annie?

(HO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO­-HO-HO.)

[TheGeoshark]

Hey! Scooby Doo is amazing!

[Shadyknights]

I watched this series after you suggested it in the first Black Lodge episode. Thank you for caring enough to suggest such a great show!

[Slash0mega]

6:06 wait,

there was music in atari games?

[CrossKnights]

@Slash0mega A lot of them just had small burst of music (or no music) but some did have on going music. The only game that had on going music that I remember liking was level intro part to "Pressure Cooker."

[JahMegs]

this game just screams.. MIGRAINE

[twinblademasta]

Look at those Graphics! The gameplay! It's so realistic!

[TheSkylie]

I agree; Fire Walk with Me was bad. Really bad. MacLachlan didn't want a big role, though, out of fear of being typecast as Coop'

Also, hope you're ready to play in this place for 25 years!

[PolarPhantom]

I have a feeling you should be wary of that guy you have dubbed "bob" for the sake of simplicity.

[AlexandervonKoopa]

I think you're being unfair to Bob. The way I see it, he's a young Santa Claus without most of his resources, and he has to ask Doppelgangers how people are instead of just checking a list.

[VyseElric]

Hey kids, are YOU looking for an uproarious time that the whole family can enjoy? Come to the Black Lodge! We have: Midget! Dopplegangers! A girl who looks like Laura Palmer! And, who can forget, Ultimate Power! So come on down and have yourself a good time in the Black Lodge! And remember: The owls are not what they seem!

[DemonofHell48]

what happens if you get by screaming twice?

[lorddalek]

Do I get bonus points for saying I actually remember watching this episode when it originally aired in 91?

[DeceasedCrab]

@lorddalek A few, yes.

[Snorlagg]

@lorddalek I rember missing it back when the last episode aired. My dad was rather irked that we did.

[AdriRaven]

@lorddalek I can remember this as well. I was in Middle School at the time. My Dad hated this show, but my Mom and I liked to watch it together.

[thevoiceofdogSA]

This is unusually well timed considering I just finished the series last week. I had to look up the significance of the horse too, that was a really nice touch. The guy(s) who made this were very attentive to detail. The only thing missing is an Atari version of 'Falling.'

[Kalphoenix]

I didn't see this series (Although I am told I would enjoy it), but this game is some sort of trippy nightmare, to be sure. I just can't stop watching it.

[Vincanni]

Not sure if its intended, but I find this game actually a bit scary.

[aawood]

@Vincanni It's intentional; the show was a very bizarre supernatural crime/horror show, and the part this game is based on was about the trippiest and most frightening part of it's run.

[NinjaLuv3]

That horse is terrifying.

[Nightfalcon000]

They're not wanting to kill you, DC, they're just wanting to know how Annie is doing. Why do you have to be so selfish and run from them when they're simply concerned for her well-being, Deceased Crab?!

[underthepale]

You've outdone yourself with thisone, DC. This has got to be the single strangest game you've ever subjected yourself to. And I say that having seen your other LPs. Just... Wow. What the hell.

[cyberbrowny]

there is something inexplicably disturbing about this...

[necogreendragon]

Really makes me want to watch the show again. I love the opening theme song. It is not an easy show to keep up with. I've seen the whole series twice and still am not sure what happened at the end. O.o. Keep up finding these hidden gems dc.

[TheEggrollGuy]

DC, Laura only seems to scream at you when her eyes are red. Not because you're too close.

[TheLomdr]

@TheEggrollGuy In one room Laura does go red eyed but she didn't scream.

[koombajoe]

Annie are you ok? Are you ok? Are you ok Annie?

[onthespoke2]

Look at Burns's suit.

[Huntershows]

So that's why I've been seeing all those owls in my dreams.

[Devoguy]

So how's Annie DC?

[frickingfrickface]

Every time that guy said "How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? Hoh hoh hoh hoh hoh" I was expecting DC to say "Frankly, I don't give a damn" x)

[TheMightyMelv]

How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? HAHAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHHHHA.

Remember to buy more toothpaste.

[DeceasedCrab]

@TheMightyMelv Yeah geez Dale what the hell is your problem that stuff doesn't grow on trees.

[Slash0mega]

@TheMightyMelv oh, so thats what the horse statue says....

[TheMightyMelv]

How's Annie?  How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? HAHAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHHHHA.

[ElrondHubbard54]

this is probably the most unsettling game you've played since hot throttle!

...though nothing was worse than hot throttle. :(

[MrPopsicle43]

You can predict the future?! (I always thought you could...)

[jinoah17emu]

2:54 I will! I have stared to. And then, I will have. So far, one of the best shows I've seen in a long time... Should have watched it when I was growing up, but oh well.

[smada9711]

Yay! New video! :P I would probably be too freaked out to play this game.

[RoadlessEnt]

Couldnt you lower the volume of that screeching, its really overpowering.

[DeceasedCrab]

@RoadlessEnt Nope! Suffer. Or you know, turn down your volume.

[DimJim12]

I think I pooped. A lot.

[DeceasedCrab]

@DimJim12 Classy.

[hatad321]

i notice on the girl,she screams when you pass her IF her eyes are open,so you can go when thier closed

[CastlePokemetroid]

So the only way to get points is to get to the end of the room?

Going through 50 rooms in this game does not seem like fun.

[LCDominator]

Use your indoor voice!!!!!!!!!!!

[LCDominator]

Better than most games we play today.

[SWAnimus01]

I'm quite entertained from these deaths.

[1940sman]

How's Annie?

[Justinwa0309]

@DeceasedCrab

Great job as always, DC.

[MrJackHagan]

Ok, I know nothing about the game or the show, bit this little Atari lookalike is genuinely freaking me out a bit all the same.

[superpika237]

So I still don't know what's going on, but that's alright with me because WHOOOOAAA look at the rabbit!

[CPCGamer]

Oh, I'll bet this game is FILLED with secrets.

[ArmoredChocobo]

you're spoiling stuff now, DOH!

You mentioned BOB and Man from Another Place! Bad crab! Bad!

[DeceasedCrab]

@ArmoredChocobo Those aren't spoilers. Those are Names. They aren't even the right names? They don't even matter. You are the one who is bad.

[YukaTakeuchiFan]

"Chicken! Fight like a doppelganger!"?

[daulpaul]

I use to watch Twin Peaks when I was younger so this is kinda surreal.

[cymonsgames]

SO are you able to leave the first room, return to it and look for "him" there? What happens if you do?

[DeceasedCrab]

@cymonsgames ?????

[cymonsgames]

@DeceasedCrab 14:06 "leave the first room, return to it and look for me there?"

What happens if you do that?

[DeceasedCrab]

@cymonsgames ?????

[cymonsgames]

@DeceasedCrab Are you just messing with me now. That's what it says there at the end.

But now I'm confused because I downloaded the game, played it, did that, and nothing happened. Do you have to get the 5000 points first? I don't know what's going on.

[DeceasedCrab]

@cymonsgames ?????

[ArmoredChocobo]

@cymonsgames what do you think video 3's gonna be about, hmm?

[DeceasedCrab]

@ArmoredChocobo I don't think they've thought that far ahead.

[BygPhattyPlus]

Wait, so you have to get 5000 poitns, then die, just to find out HOW to get the true ending!? Well...

[NoraRaptors]

What does a horse have to do with anything...? I gotta know o-O

[Voltgloss]

@NoraRaptors Classically, Death (as in, four-horsemen-of-the-Apocalyps­e Death) is depicted riding a pale one.

[TheStrongBadMan]

You've introduced me to several games now. Kid Dracula, that Splatterhouse game, Escape from the underworld, and now Black Lodge. I've played each one, and none of them have disappointed.

Oh wait, I almost forgot about I Was In The War! That one was pretty neat as well.

[iamaniamsdog210]

Your LPs never cease to amaze me.

[Crowley9]

The guy in brown sounds ambiguous whether he's saying "I did not kill anybody" or "I did not kill Annie body". I wonder if that is deliberate.

[DeceasedCrab]

@Crowley9 Probably not. You try reading everything backwards and reversing it.

[Dumgold]

Damn it! This is gonna give me nightmares. :S

[DeceasedCrab]

@Dumgold Mission Accomplished!

[DemiJare]

digitized voices are inherently creepy.

[Connarhea]

DC how do you make a video of a game that should cause me to tear my eyes out and feed them to starving dwarven pitbull terriers from leagues beneath the sea, into a wonderful masterpiece of beauty, fragrant marshmallows and graffiti that helps people cope with stress?

[ZarakiZamusha]

I really didn't want to watch this but I did. so much screech!

[TheFirestorm83]

Black lodge AKA the most linear game ever!

[DeceasedCrab]

@TheFirestorm83 Or is it?

[MrUnhandy]

You seem to like the Doppelganger over Bob the Horse owner.

[DeceasedCrab]

@MrUnhandy At least the Doppelganger looks like Dale Cooper. Snazzy!

[Flash3713]

I'd like to say that the only thing keeping me watching this is that funky little beat that the guy makes when he walks, but that would be a lie.

As trippy as this is, it's intrigued me.

I may very well watch the show after this is finished... In a dark room... In the middle of the night. With nobody around.

[Crowbar27AB]

Well great... I'm going to have nightmares for a very, very, VERY long time about that horse now...

[Jigglysaint]

DC now stands for Deceased Cooper.

[scottbrotify]

yay!

[nsaneone]

To me it keeps sounding like the voice is saying "house envy."

[onescYT]

Not seeing you beat it is so damn frustrating!

[Neotails8762]

How's Andy?

[scorchsoul]

Just what does it say whenever you lose? something about house envy? It's really creepy, no matter what it's saying.

[Voltgloss]

@scorchsoul "How's Annie? How's Annie? How's Annie? Hoh hoh hoh hoh hoh"

[AGrayPhantom]

4:45 I think you just lost all your Scooby-Doo fans, sir.

8:14 If we didn't want spoilers then why would we be watching this?

I'll probably never play this game, which is a shame because it actually looks new and original. Hm, that last sentence was ironic seeing as this was based off of a TV show.

Hm.... and the plot thickens...

[asdasdasdmaster]

With so many J names floating around in the series, I feel maybe UltraJMan should cameo or something(cue audience laughter).

Seriously though, I'm digging the series, and man is this game unsettling.

[Wirrit]

@13:20 Never give up... Never surrender!

[dwab321]

DC, I'd like to thank you for recommending this wonderful show. I can't stop watching!

[Dissruptance]

Okay, so I know a girl who will give me a D.C. tattoo for free, it's happening.

[DeceasedCrab]

@Dissruptance Wow. That's going to hurt. Maybe I could convince you instead to spend the money on a Roth IRA?

[Bouserthedog]

I did not kill annny body. ¯\(ºдಠ)/¯

[ShdwFrg]

Her eyes glow red when she's about to scream.

[TheExiledGolem]

Why do you play such weird games?

[ZeRedSpy]

Make it go away DC, make the scary electronic voice man thing go away/

[thefunkablemonk]

That was the craziest bakesale I've ever seen.

[robrojasm]

that horse sure gives me the creeps D:

[Voltgloss]

Thanks for showcasing this, DC. What an enjoyable rush of nostalgia.  It's almost as if that gum I liked had finally come back in style.

[DeceasedCrab]

@Voltgloss They still sell that brand of gum at Cracker Barrel. Pick some up, it's not bad!

[MalusCalibur]

An intriguing ending there.

As someone who is completely unfamiliar with the show, I'm wondering where this is headed.

Also, this game freaks me out something chronic.

[ConcealRise]

Venus statue stares.

Noisome noise. Flying couches.

Pine trees. Shooting owls.

Your controls, reversed.

Some guy in a corridor

Bob, bad touch. Horse end.

[DeceasedCrab]

@ConcealRise That's kind of spooky.

[TheBroken8Ball]

Is this game really more difficult than it seems?

[agoodfedora]

DC: tellin' the future since now. Or is it...?

[MMeteorMan]

A cliffhanger? I wonder what exciting game-changing revelations occur within the next episode!

[Cryomundus]

I...wait, just what in the world happened? I mean, I know Atari games are hardly good games, but this is just pure nonsense from my viewpoint.

Is this one of those games where you NEED to know the back story in order for it to make any sense at all?

[DeceasedCrab]

@Cryomundus Dude, knowing the backstory isn't going to help even slightly.

[catpeople79]

Have you played deadly premonition? Some people say that it's pretty much a twin peaks video game? I haven't seen it, but I assume you would know.

[DeceasedCrab]

@catpeople79 I have played and beaten it. It is a great game!

[Renbourne21]

So weird...yet so entertaining!

[DocOppenheimer]

Do the owls actually make sense if you have watched the show?

[DeceasedCrab]

@DocOppenheimer ...kind of???

[majormelthesackboy]

This game is creepy for an Atari game.

[Cryoreaper]

If only you could use save states...

[Megabulbasaur47]

this makes no sense

this sense make no

no makes this sense

no makes sense this

[Crono288]

Also F2 doesn't work for me either also it seems like Laura only screams at you in the room with her and the grey walls if you walk past her when her eyes are open.

[Sanguinis666]

This game is giving me nightmares......

[crouchingweeaboo]

One way of making this game a lot less scary is to look at the walk cycles. My God... Those legs are likely socks flapping in the wind.

[evilmiera]

Well, that's certainly a lot of points. I'd be proud, if I knew how!

[ljcello]

What a fantastic cliffhanger!!

[Crono288]

Definitely downloaded and tried it but the Mac version doesn't let you shoot on the second encounter so that's not helpful.

[Spike116s]

I don't get this... at all.

[Arppis]

what happens if you touch the midget? Err... or little people? What they are called?!

[DeceasedCrab]

@Arppis People who aren't as tall as you. They're called "people". And nothing happens. He doesn't dance or anything. Nor does he say anything too crazy in this game. A pity. In the series, well...

[Arppis]

@DeceasedCrab

Ahaa, alrighty. Yeah the series is great.

[Nixitur]

Black Lodge is where you go when you diiieee!

[ZeZcop]

I don't understand any of this! I love it!

[dzero34]

What a bieautiful atari game- OH JESUS
