Thanks for doing aila walkthrough bro
Charlie don't need to find a cure for his Insomnia, he just needs to play a walking sim and he'll have a good night sleep 😂
Only 15 minutes in but that sleep awake games visuals are insaaane. That game on shrooms would be an insane experience
4:50:00 watching charles try to figure this shit out made me think he must have had a hard time with comprehension in school lol. man cant even bothered to read 2 paragraphs
Late to the game, but re: A.I.L.A. the "do it for him" was a reference to reasons for staying sober.
Love how Charlie always assumes they're dead but they are literally still standing and proceed to kill him afterwards
That's Horror game. Was one bizarre game
Just use alt to thrust, holy bro is poking them lightly with the double tap.
It's hilarious to see him confused about who is friend or foe when the game tries very not subtly to show you who is on whose side with the bright red vs plain yellows
This game is so funny and so brutal. Still I like how you managed to collect all kinds of weapons.
