Fun(?) fact: Turtle head (龜頭) is a slang term for the male genitalia in Chinese. So the turtle soup shop guy threatening you by cutting off a turtle's head and feeding it to the other turtles <i>might</i> have been a more colorful threat than it first seemed.

"kowloons gate is a cyberpunk-horror-feng shui-daoist philosophy themed first person-fmv-adventure game" certainly a sentence that will not be repeated any time soon

I'd just like to voice the opinion that the play by play of the story of these games is really appreciated and I'm glad you do it. I don't have the time or the knowledge of Japanese to play a lot of these games, and I listen to your videos while I work. It's like getting to play an obscure game I'd have never even known existed without having to do all the legwork myself and I really appreciate it. <3

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8IOPFF4nig&t=4398">1:13:18</a> I might be able to explain the "Kakuna" part. What was shown on screen was a human embryo, so this is likely a flashback to before the old man was born. I've heard that, during very early development in the womb, one twin sometimes absorbs the other. So my interpretation is that he really did have a twin, but they fused before they were born. His twin was absorbed into him, both body and soul, but the souls didn't merge as completely as the bodies did.<br><br>That would also explain why he wants the face cream and then is disappointed that it won't be enough to keep him looking young. Without a body of his own, the absorbed twin seems not to have aged nearly as much. He's a young boy in an old man's body.

The PS1 era was a wild time. You had the beginnings of so many iconic, big budget franchises. But you also had all these weird, experimental games made by big companies. Now you would only see that kind of game from little indie developers.

“What has your pog empire wrought unto you?” is NOT something I expected to hear when I woke up this morning.

hey! one of the people who worked on the assets for this game maintains a location in Second Life to this day that you can visit and explore in a similar manner. he’s really cool and runs a lot of events

I appreciate you taking a moment to have a personal existential crisis in the middle of your script. It's a special sort of game that puts that kind of moment into a final draft.
