Sometimes life is a bulgarian and you're an unlocked vehicle
As a Bulgarian, the vehicle does not need to be unlocked.
@@JealotGaming the car windows do not appreciate this comment.
Max0r: Sometimes, life is just a Bulgarian, and you're an unstollen car.

I, as an Eastern european, can confirm, that going into a minefield while shitfaced is a tradition spanning centuries!
Damn, yo, you guys had mines in the 1800s?
@@jakeking974 800's!
bosnia
Yea I can confirm this is Eastern Europe in a nutshell
As an Eastern European, can confirm. What's the fun if you do it sober?
"Defeat alcoholism" Story of my life
Yeah and that story is elden ring
good for you
at least managed to do it for some people it's just "alcoholism" or "try to defeat alcoholism"
Too bad I lost
Don’t we all?
Kinda crazy how they made you keep drinking, by making the character so annoying about it. You know it's bad for him but you kept doing it because of his nagging about his nagging craving. It's actually shockingly realistic in that way and makes you the player into a simulated alcoholic.
Yea thats good design imo hats off to the creators
Genuinely the best representation of alcoholism I've seen in a video game
I would be *too good* at refusing those naggings.
Unfortunately, for as good at refusing nagging I am (because *I* AM THE NAGGER NOT YOU GAME) there are at least a dozen people who would intentionally give in to the alcoholism for the jokes.
@@shilohmagic7173 yeah but that only works while you have the money , just like real life. Then the nagging starts again
"I'm not sober, I just had two beers" Listen, i don't know where you are from but by Polish standards that's still sober
Agree. For German standards this is just moistening the throat.
He’s an American, they get drunk from a drop of wine xD
@@jamessawyer9816 the puritan bloodline showing
Yeah i think just by european standards in general
@@jamessawyer9816 Wrong 2 beers is literally nothing for ppl in Wisconsin
"If you kill the shopkeeper, you can't buy vodka" -Eastern European Hammurabi
who said we are buing things?polish tradition is that middle scholers are stealing beer by cooperation.
Underrated comment
Even though it seems like a total meme this game is actually kinda depressing when you think about it. Given the date its set in, your characters age, the fact he wears a tattered red army uniform and has a crippling alcohol addiction and recently deceased parents..
😞
average soviet life story
"Lost everything due to alcoholism" And the war, kinda hard to miss that That said it feels like a semi-accurate representation of Poland immediately after WW2
to jest polska gra przyjacielu
I think the way this game is meant to be played is that you - in real life - take a drink every time he mentions wanting/needing a drink.
Bruh Valefisk is an American he’d die
benes
"You want vodka?, There's your vodka" *proceeds to enter a minefield while drunk and dies*
In the west: "Oh no you drank two beer you cant drive" Eastern Europe: "He can just drink 5 vodkas, since he is driving"
“The whole bottle?” What game did you think you were playing
fun fact soviet vodka usually had a cap that couldnt be screwed back on so if you wanted your money's worth youd drink it all in one sitting
@@Nighthawk2702 In tsarist russia the vodka making right was a privilege of the nobles. If your local lord wanted his money's worth, he was in favor of you drinking every day.
This sounds exactly what my grandpa experienced after the war, endless amounts of ammo and stick grenades, he and his friend used to throw them down into valleys and hear the boom...he also almost lost his hand when a rifle misfired
You can always rely on Slavs for three things: readily available strong liquor, dark humour, and inventive video games featuring readily available strong liquor and dark humour.
"Why do I have to be drunk to use stick grenades" Well, you wouldn't be throwing grenades around *your* neighborhood if you were sober, would you?
Yeah, the pop-in is realistic in that part of Poland. Very realistic game, I have to say.
You guys do have the world record for the highest BAC who survived.
you play as kasimir, the most depressed man in ukrirussipolabulgaslavia, and that's quite a high bar.
First quest that pops up: "Defeat alcoholism" Damn, this game is so immersive. Like real life.
He wants him to shut up about drinking, he continues drinking which keeps him talking about drinking.
As someone from Eastern Europe I feel represented and can confirm that the game is true to the real thing
For more on why you would need a grenade on a Polish farm and how to safely cross a minefield I suggest you watch a great documentary film "Sami swoi"
Are the grenade and safely crossing the minefield related? Can you detonate mines by throwing grenades at them?
@@jonasfree2 depending on the mine Some can be detonated with a rock But the vast majority can indeed prob be dealt with by a grenade But thats not why they had them i think
"I'm not sober! I just had two beers!" What a lightweight.
Vale learns the joy of blast fishing
"Do zombies spawn at night?" -- in Soviet Poland, zombies spawn you.
I live in northeast Brazil which is not eastern Europe but it's still east and full of farmers and i can confirm this game is extremely realistic, the nightmarish rain really hits home and the farm stuff is a lot like my grandpa's (RIP) farm
Defeat alcoholism you say? *Pulls out axe and turns to shopkeeper*
Rename video to "Valefisk never leaves starting area because he finds vodka and a minefield."
Game: If you kill the shopkeeper, you can no longer buy vodka. Valefisk: 😭
as a proud latvian living in the capital city i can confirm that its like that even in the city
"The whole bottle!?" Stolichnaya vodka (the brand produced by the Soviet Union) was infamous for having a cap designed to not be able to be put back on after opening a bottle since the designers knew that most Russian men would just down an entire bottle in one sitting.
As a slavic man I can confirm this is a 100% correct representation
While WW2 is deadly conflict, defeating alcoholism is a societal issue spanning centuries and has broken many homes. What a fucking game of the year objective. Boys, this should been the game of the year in 2021
The new Stardew Valley looks great!
5:35 - guy was in Eastern Europe for hour and already repeated crime and punishment scenario
"I'm not sober, I just had 2 beers!" And that's why you only get to simulate life in eastern europe
i used to get super drunk with my friends in the desert (live in the us) and do stupid shit on our bikes, can confirm there is a bridge between the two groups of people
Local man possessed by demon, the latter died by alcohol poisoning, whole community unfazed.
Ah yes the true Polish experience
this is more accurate than i would like to admit
As an American, the horrifying realities of Eastern Europe are completely realized in this game. Powerful video, Vale.
Vale's mindset is becoming more and more Eastern European as the video progresses
summer 1946, Eastern Europe, alcoholic. makes too much sense
Ah yes the true Podlasie experience
1:16 "am i having shitting problems?" Valefisk - 2022
This is one farm that would definitely do better under state control
"I'm not sober I just had two beers" is the saddest sentence I've ever heard
5:41 Killing the only supplier of alcohol is one way to kick the addiction.
Akchually, alcoholics who don't drink for too long can legitimately die from the withdrawal itself. SO the statement "I've heard it's not healthy not to drink vodka for too long" is technically not incorrect when taking context into consideration.
11:34 Valefisk talking to Kasimir about his drinking problem is really giving off some Eddie Brock & Venom energy.
"Don't take your bike through an active minefield" words of wisdom
I just immagine vale drinking four bottles of vodka,getting on his bike,going dangerously fast through a minefield, then being like"oh shit I think I went through TWO mines!"
There is a game that is very similar to this one but its better and it simulates life in an eastern European city.its called hobo tough life it would be cool if you play it
You need to play "Priest Simulator" if you haven't already. This game for some reason reminds me of it. Its fucking wild.
The patch notes to this game apply to real life
Love a good Slavic Simulator.
so this is the My Summer Car of East Europe?
This guy's perspective of the game will change as soon as he hears about all of the active mine fields in the world. Also like how just by spam this game made alcoholism meaningful. It's so stupid but genius!
I think I speak for all of us when I say: please make this a series
damn this tarkov update gets fucking weird
How much for a second part where you drink a shot everytime your charackter wants Vodka ? That way you and your liver get the true eastern european experience.
"A German Panzer" It's a Russian T34 tank, that's why it has vodka in it.
I love how it just uses christmas trees and you didn't even noticed 14:59, right side of the sreen
I don't think that's a christmas tree, those look like they're supposed to be berries.
#vale2020 would be poggers as a stream game of this with drinking everytime the character wants a drink
As a Serb, this is incredibly realistic.
entirely accurate to living in Austria in 1946
I demand episode 2
THE MALE FANTASY
Finally, the long fabled Stardew Valley dlc
As a Polish person, that's extremely accurate
Hey Vale, I know this video is more than a year old now, but i absolutely needed to tell you that you misidentified the tank as a Panther while it's more than likely a Tiger II. The MG bulge at the front is a dead giveaway. in addition, the turret is a production turret instead of the prototype, meaning it's canonically one of the later ~450 Tiger II's built.
I wish your channel was more visible! I always skip by your videos on accident but this is golden contect.
What a weird 7 days to die update
I've played enough arma to know exactly what eastern europe is like
12:50 any soldier can be a minesweeper, once
This is pretty accurate ngl.
Oh, sorry I didn't do that thing you asked, I was too busy fishing with hand grenades. --Some guy in eastern Europe

As a Polish teen I must say, alcoholism is pretty relatable
My summer hand grenade
In 1834, the first working vapor-compression refrigeration system was built In 1913, refrigerators for home use were invented ''its 1946'' so technically you would have a fridge
as romanian this is incredibly accurate
Wait wait wait, why is “Defeat alcoholism” a task under “winter preparations” ?
I need to see martincitopants play this
14:40 is gold
Tbh this is how the life looked like in post war western poland. Truly Wild West experience
The main character sounds like he is from cruelty squad
10:40 That is a Jesus take the wheel moment.
Jesus that intro LMAO
Game of the year
Move over, kingdom come deliverance.
As a Eastern European I dont if I should be offended or I should laugh
Video would have been 2 minutes long if he didnt try to pass the minefield on the bike..

It’s like demo from tf2. Solid food and water is like poison to him
It's beautiful
accurate

6:50 We are geniuses :)
This game could easily be set in the modern day and no one would know the difference
