It was all part of the plan.
In the previous review, it was mentioned how Cohh had found the true ending in “Hades” and may return to it in the future. Most of the time that means “soon™” when he finds time in his schedule to bring a game back, or when a game has an update.
Rarely do we see him jump right back into a game, less than a week after completing it. “Hades” is of those games to Cohh as it returned to the cozy stream as has a hold on the evening streams. There’s a twist to it this time, and we’ll get into that below
What about the other, regular hour, streams? NOPEtober continues for its second week as Cohh continues to work through the list nuuriell compiled, and played some games chat has suggested. There was also a game called “Baldur’s Gate 3” he has been anxiously waiting to get his hands on.
Time to dive right in and see what games have graced the stream It’s time for your weekly review!
Remothered: Tormented Fathers
Uncovering the Past
Remothered became the next game off the NOPEtober list as Cohh explored the mansion of Dr. Richard Felton for two streams last week.
In this survival horror game you’re trying to uncover the mystery of a missing woman. While searching for the truth, you’re hunted by various forces intent on stopping you any way they can.
After completing the game Cohh described it as “trying too hard.” This just means "Remothered: Tormented Fathers" was trying to be more than it was, and tell an intricate story with many twists and turns. Cohh has plans to play the sequel, “Remothered; Broken Porcelain” to see where the story would go and what improvements would be made. By the time you read this, he likely already played that one too.

Someday You’ll Return
Lost in the Wilderness!
Unlike other NOPEtober games, Cohh took this suggestion from chat as he looked for more games to play. This turned out to not be as much horror as it was simply weird.
In this game you take control of Daniel who is searching for his daughter that ran away into the
Chřiby forests. Being a real location, "Someday You'll Return" has numerous QR codes to scan as you can learn more about the area you're exploring
For Cohh this became a game that didn’t feel like a true horror game, and left him confused and trying to understand what exactly was going on. As he moved on to “Baldur’s Gate 3” this game was moved to cozy streams.
Gradually the point was hit that Cohh was beyond the point of no return and was committed to completing it. You could say it is an example of the
sunk cost fallacy.
You can find all the answers to the questions about Cohh’s experience with “Someday You’ll Return” on
Twitch.
Baldur’s Gate III
An Early Look!
After early access was delay a week, Cohh got his hands on the newest game from Larian Studios on Oct. 6. The hype was overwhelming as at launch over 44,000 people were in the stream.
Over the five days on stream, Cohh dived deep into the warlock class to see what the game had to offer. As the game is still in early access you are limited to only the first act, a select number of classes, and a level cap. Limits or not, the savescum remained.
Multiple times Cohh was asked if he would recommend it. Being the man he is, Cohh stated, “No.” That’s because of the limitations and the price tag on "Baldur's Gate III." His thoughts are just to wait for the full release, which could be over a year from now.
Sven Vincke was even surprised by the popularity of the game. It's supposed to be just like a beta test.
If you’re interested in a game like this, from the same studio, check out
“Divinity: Original Sin II.”
Cohh has stopped playing “Baldur’s Gate III” for now, but has said he plans to revisit as stuff gets added. You can find Cohh’s first look at the game on
here.
Hades
Back in Hell!
To say it was a surprise that Cohh returned to this game would be incorrect. The surprise was more in he returned to the game so quickly.
During this playthrough he is playing on
Hell Mode where the difficulty is increased providing a new challenge. “Hades” has been the game of choice for the cozy stream for over a week, and it looks like nothing will taken its place for now.
It’s been said cozy streams are the streams where Cohh plays what he wants to play. “Hades” fits that bill perfectly.
