PAWN SHOP

Hello everybody, my name is Markiplier and welcome to Pawn Shop. I started the recording late, thought it was recording, ended up not being. So this is a pawn shop, and you're working there, late at night or something. I missed the intro because again, it's not on camera. Film. Recording.

I don't know.

I'm gonna start over. Hello everybody. My name is Markiplier. You can't see my hands, but they're welcoming. Welcome. My name is Markiplier. You can't see my hands, but they're welcoming. Welcome... Is this terrifying to you? For some reason, having my hands here... Welcome to Pawn Shop.

You are our new employee! You're going to be working at this pawn shop! So come on in! This is what... This is what cats see when you try to...

Come on!

Come on! Come on! Come come here this is me to sandy right now just come on come on come on let me screw let me pick you up no wonder it's terrifying this is a great start great start to another great video oh yeah here goes the bus it won't come back till 6 a.m. So I can't leave even if I finish my shift early Good. I still don't understand why a pawn shop needs to be open all night Well, I gotta go talk to the daytime employee now. I'm late and he's not gonna like that

Talk to the daytime guy Why do we live in the darkest of voids? There's the tiniest scrap of some kind of road right there from what seems to be moonlight that doesn't exist because there is no moon.

Okay, whatever.

That's fine. Hello!

I'm surprised more horror games don't have pawn shops. That was a weird stain. Pawn shop settings. It is atypically aggregatious of drawing and interesting characters Yes, those words were this is not this this aisle a sense of problem This shouldn't be out in the open like this me thinks especially the already pre bloodied axe

But okay, whatever. Hey man. You know, we-we-we-we- We should probably get more shelves, man.

Hi. Hey there!

Hello!

How are you doing? Name's Dan. You're a bit late, but that's alright. Yeah, sorry about that. It's my first day on the job. I could barely find this place. Also, it's a bus that I came here by and they kind of run on a schedule That in America is usually kind of sporadic

You seem a little late. Oh, you seem a little too happy for a guy who has to stay here all day I'm just happy. We got a new member in the family. Oh boy. Oh Good. Well, I gotta head out now, you know what to do if you any questions, call me and I'll do my best

Just make sure the cinder fall killer doesn't get you

The fucking who?

The cinder fall killer, you know

It's a guy in a yellow shirt who pretends to be an employee and kills night shift workers on their first day on the job

I'll get you! You should have seen the look on your face. Oh cool. Well I won't bother you any longer. I'll see you tomorrow. Or will I? You might not. Okay I'm sorry.

Bye for real. Woah. I didn't know I was dealing with a fucking alpha male. Look at that swag

Holy shit

Haven't said the word swag in a while. I meant to say swagger, but it didn't come out, right? What is wrong with that dude? Look, I'm gonna drink this and we're all gonna forget that this video has started off in a in a in spectacular Markiplier fashion And we're all gonna pretend like this is the greatest intro to any horror game You've ever seen in your life and you're gonna comment that and I'm gonna look back on this because I will have forgotten

Everything that I've done in this recording and now I'll look back on the comments here. I'll be like wow I did it again I crushed it because they're saying that I did it again that I crushed it and that I am the pride of myself in my eyes. You're gonna say that so that I can read that and then I will believe it. What is wrong with that dude? Anyway, time to start my shift I guess. Go to the counter and wait for the customers. Okay do I put down the yep. Okay, alright, time to wait for customers. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I've been here before

What did I expect ain't no one coming to a pawn shop this late I guess I'm supposed to sweep the floor now get the place ready for the morning Okay. I mean, was that part of the job description? Did they- did they want me to do that? I would love to be able to move faster!

This is...

This is abysmally slow.

The back door is broken, so they locked it with a padlock?

Wow.

There doesn't seem to be a key for this anywhere either. What am I supposed to do if a robber breaks in or something? Well defend thyself with guns and bullets. It was right behind me the whole time. What's in here? It can't be opened sweep the floors with the room. I Hate that sound. Alexi and replace that with something more pleasant please. I don't know if that was pleasant for me.

I don't know if we can...

leave that in.

Look, this is all on Lixian and or the editors, because if it's on the other editors, then Lixian will lay blame, just like I lay blame in a chain of blame, going from Lixian on down. From me on down, but I'm never to blame, so...

that's...

never gonna be my problem. Go to the counter and wait for customers. Okay.

Did it get brighter? Is it?

Man, that was very tiring. I think I deserve a break after all that while I wait for customers. Not like anyone's gonna show up anyway. Really? Just gonna nap it out? Just gonna crush this nap style? Yep, nobody. nap it out just gonna crush this nap style yep nobody so this will be my life

now at least give me a chair why do I have to stand here all night nah who am I to complain it's money for literally doing nothing yeah well you know I don't know what error it is but you could wait- Wait a minute. Someone's coming! Okay, I need to get ready.

Ha, he, ha, he, ha!

...

Come in! Yes! Come hither! Come on in, kind sir. Yes, closer. Closer now. Yes, come this way. To me. To me.

Come here. Yes. That is way. To me. To me. Come here. Yes.

That is not nearly close enough. Hey, what's up? Welcome to Lucky Fine's Pawn Shop. How can I help you today? Hello. I would like to pawn this VHS player, please. Decided to get rid of it now that DVDs are slowly taking over. So this tells me it's early 2000s. Or before. I don't know what do you just came out not too old or damaged

I brought my own tape with it too in case you want to test it What will you give me for it? Interesting. Let's see Accept or refuse probably sounds great unless it's cursed

Except

Not bad at all. I'm gonna test it real quick. And if it works, I can give you 60 bucks for it. That's alright with me. Go ahead. Alright, E. Where do I do this?

Uh huh.

Here, E. Uh huh. Not like I don't have any tapes, but maybe I shouldn't play your tape. Alright. I'll play your tape. Nothing, uh, cursed about this, right? Ah, looks trustworthy.

I'm gonna watch this up close.

Oh. Oh

Just the same death of that game, this is me seeing me in a game seeing me in a game I

It's just the same death as those games. I don't know if I played those ones. Hey, this was great I don't think I have a cash drawer here. Here you go Looks like everything is fine. Here is your money Thanks, make sure to close the door on your way out I didn't when you first came in because I wanted you to feel welcome. Goodbye. Go away. Go away now

Go away forever. Go away forever. Never come back.

Never come back.

Alright.

Well...

Never seeing that guy again, but then again I never need to. Is that toilet paper? What are we even stocking here? Why do we have just three rolls of toilet paper? Why is everything on the ground?

Why do I have so many guns just out in the open with the ammo for it right next to it? This seems precarious at best! That went better than I expected. I better unplug the VHS player and put it on display like the rest of the items. Of course. Of course, I couldn't keep this.

Put it next to the computers. Of course!

Did he close the-

Did he- did it close out on the way out? What is it? Does someone play the drums? Where did I put okay? But okay, so that's done. I should take a break wait hold on before that I'm a bit confused about the budget thing. I saw in the register. Maybe I should call Dan and see if I did something wrong Hey new guy what's up? Hello Dan, sorry if I woke you up.

Oh no problem. I wanted to ask about the budget thing that I saw on the register. I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong. I got my first customer just now and he asked for $60 But that is almost half of the budget. So I just wanted to ask if that would be too much money to give away Oh, well, it depends on the item that the customer was pawning in our shop isn't in the best financial state right now

So the owner set a limit on how much we could spend on new items every day It is your job to correctly set the prices of everything so that the shop actually profits. Only accept items that could have real resale value for the price you are offering. It is very important to know what you are spending the budget on and how useful it's going to be. $60 for a VHS player, for example, isn't a bad price for now, but DVDs will get cheaper soon and replace them.

Oh, that's what I need to hear to calm down I did did I say VHS player? Thanks you're welcome bye I

must have I must have right I must have I must have Yo I just said happy birthday to your girlfriend Ray Ray 10 minutes ago. Now I'm gonna say it again. Happy birthday Ray Ray.

Oh my god!

Wow this guy is really funny now I understand why so many people watch him. I'm getting kinda hungry. Maybe I should get something from the vending machine outside but I didn't bring any money with me I'll just take some from the register who's gonna know I know the business is failing but it can't be that bad it couldn't possibly be that bad I was just gonna steal some money from the register. Yippity doody boomy noo. No one's gonna know.

Who's ever gonna know?

Who's gonna know?

No one's gonna know.

Besides, where's a vending machine? I don't even know where a vending machine is.

Oh!

There's a vending machine! Oh my god! It's a freaking deluxe vending machine. These look disgusting. Oh, there's a vending machine. Oh my god

It's a freaking deluxe vending machine. These look disgusting. Never mind. It's an awful vending machine

I'll just pocket the rest. Yeah, that's good to do as an employee You know, this guy kind of might deserve whatever's coming to him and I got a funny feeling it's gonna be something Wait, what's over here? Why is there another door over there?

Hmm Food something wait what's over here why is there another door over there hmm food what hello

what What? Hello?

Okay, who's over there? Hey, I was about to punch you old man. You would have been dead your head completely

Yes

Whoa old man you scared me. Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to I was just trying to buy one of those guitars over there It's a birthday gift for my grandson. Why so late? Oh, I just got here from a long road trip This is the first place I went to so how much do those guitars cost? 200 great. I would like to buy one, please. Sure Couldn't 20 bucks for a guitar seems kind of

Here you go, sir. Thanks. Here is the money

Thanks

I'll just pocket that I guess have a great night. Make sure to close the door on the way out We can't afford any device that automatically closes a door.

That'd be craziness.

So I think-

If he closes the door-

BOOP

Wow.

He didn't close the door on the way out.

Goddammit.

Okay, so the other guy also... Didn't close the door. So no one else snuck in there. That's- that- I sure hope I charged the right amount for the good car You didn't I'm gonna tell you straight up. You did not can't be more than 20 bucks, right?

I noticed that the windows aren't exactly in the best shape Maybe I should clean those up since I'm actually getting some customers. Maybe you should How much could a guitar cost? I'm going to choose to ignore that. I am going to choose to not be distracted by the sounds thumping outside of the walls.

I'm going to make this place look great. I should pocket more money! 🎵 Definitely not gonna be scared when I'm done with this.

BLEH!

BLEH!

HULAL! Okay, seems to be nothing.

Seems to be entirely nothing.

BABOO!

Fine.

Can I eat my food now? My stolen, stolen food? I'm doing stuff they didn't even ask me to do. They better be grateful. Time to wait for more customers, I guess. Yes, absolutely. Yes, a hundred percent. Yes, a thousand percent. I never imagined the night shift to be so boring. I keep

hearing strange noises too. This place is making me go insane. Insane, I tell you Absolutely insane

fuck

Damn it. What now the power box is outside on the back wall because of course it is I Know it's a cliche this always happens in these kinds of horror games the power goes out it always does I just I'm always upset that it works cuz I don't want to go to the bat I don't want the power all right

fine

everything's fine I can't leave even if I wanted to, right? So I have to. Nothing bad is happening. Something's gonna go boo. And I'm gonna go baa.

And that'll be the end of that.

Oh, fuck you.

Eat. Dick.

I'm watching you.

Well, I'm watching you.

No, I'm not gonna do it. Cut my hands out of the previous footage where I was going like this and then make that happen. Well, it was because I'm f- I'm fucking lazy.

I'm really lazy.

I don't know what I'm doing. Come get me. Come get- Run back to the counter. Run? I can't run. I'm trying to run. Oh my god, I saw you I saw you and my flashlight's not working for some reason. I saw that I'm running. I'm running right now

He's gonna be really happy that I sold his guitar for 20 bucks. Maybe the prices should be listed

Looks like a customer is coming Come come closer. Yes Now is your time? This is the place you were meant to be you chose this and you chose correctly

Hi, welcome to lucky finds pawn shop. How can I help you? Sorry to bother you so late, but I would like to pawn this video camera. I heard it might be worth a lot Okay depends on the quality, but it doesn't work Right. I checked everything works fine. How old is it? Is it used? I've had it for three years didn't use it too much I believe I can get around 70 to 80 dollars for it. What do you think?

Best I can do is 70, I'm not sure if it's worth it. Well, I have a budget of 90. I mean, I need to test it, right? And also, you know, this camera is probably pretty good. Digital video camera in the era where, you know, we're making the VHS switch to DVDs, probably. At the cusp of technology. I accept!

Looks good to me. Would you take $70 for it? Yeah, I guess. I can't. Wait, shouldn't I pay him first? Alright, don't mind me. I'm gonna put this somewhere. Don't rob me.

I'm gonna put this right by the gun and the axe.

There you go, here is your money.

Thanks, please close the door on your way out. Please. I'm begging you, please.

Please, please. Really, it's open right now. It's so easy for you. Yeah, you don't even need to do

Alright, sorry, sorry, I appreciate it. Appreciate it. the power back on then I'll actually call the police on him. Maybe I should call the police first. Maybe I should call the- I bet I'm gonna find Dan. Okay, money on Dan dead in the back. Money on Dan actually being a killer Messing me with me the whole time going to kill me

Dan is the killer third bet way out here on I have to use the camera to take pictures of a fatal frame style to discover the ghost that's going to Be haunting this shop because they pawned a cursed object from way yonder when To now right? that's that's the third bet you're not gonna make your money also don't gamble

Peek-a-boo?

Oh! Oh, I see you! Oh, I see you. I see you Yeah, you better run away. Oh

I'm gonna call the cops I'm calling the police I'm gonna call the

police

police

Nine one one. what's your emergency? Hey, uh, I'm currently on the night shift at Lucky Fine's pawn shop, and this guy, the daytime employee that I replaced, is pulling pranks on me. He cut the power to the building multiple times and threatened me as a joke, but I'm beginning to think that he wasn't joking. I asked him to leave, but he's still lurking around. Can you send someone to get this guy out of here?

No problem, a unit has been sent to your address. Thanks! HANGS UP!

Uh oh.

You shouldn't have done that. Oh no.

What?

Uh oh.

Man, takes a long time for the police to arrive.

Okay.

Officer, officer! Thank goodness you're here. Man, takes a long time for the police to arrive, okay. Officer, officer, thank goodness you're here. You're gonna be fine by the way, officer. Nothing bad gonna happen to you. OOF

Did you find him, officer? I searched the entire forest around the building, but I couldn't find anyone. Looks like whoever was bothering you has left. You'll be safe for the rest of the night thanks if you see him him again call us and we'll come in no time thanks for the help I should take one of the guns and keep it behind the counter and be ready to fire it even though I'm surrounded by these doors that I have not been able to open bodies and bodies

just as soon as I open the door just like avalanche of bodies falls all over me guaranteed thousand percent that was a nice detail with the brake lights coming off as he was you know he was break before he made the turn that was a a good detail. And he didn't close the door. Sigh. Finally, he left me alone. Now I can finish my shift in peace. Oh yeah.

Oh for sure. Oh for sure, yeah. Oh yeah. Did I eat my food? Probably. Alright. Yeah, for sure. Okay, that's gotta be the thing. Looks like a customer is coming.

Hmmmm. Walking up, eh?

It's awfully suspicious.

Hmm.

Alright. Hi. Look, I'm hoping there's lots of hands over the entire screen saying come hither Huh nice saw

Welcome to looking for a broken. I have you hello. I want upon this handsaw. Thanks, sir But we have enough tools in storage. No, this is not like other tools It can cut through solid metal with ease. My grandfather made it around 70 years ago but it looks brand new. The lowest I can go is $50. $50? That is way too much for a handsaw. Best I can give you is $10. I can offer it to you for $30 but it's my final offer. What do you think? I Don't have that money. Also, this seems like I need this to cut the chains over yonder way

But how the fuck would I have ever known that I didn't get to negotiate on the guitar There was no gay player that actually could have gotten me to wear away to me son of bitch All right. No, I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to spend more than $20 tonight. I can't afford it I thought they would teach you to be more resourceful It's your loss Would you meet do you thought that who's day you better close that door?

Oh, so I'm gonna take one of my saws. I already have I'm a saw you your entire ass You didn't close the door. I'm coming for you. I'm coming for you, buddy Come for do I have a saw I have any sauce. So I think I saw a sword over here I'm gonna take this sword. I'm gonna shove it Don't I did you dive pocket money fine getting closer to my shift I need to tidy the shelves before I leave of course I do But first I'm gonna close the door cuz why wouldn't I do that in the first place?

Blonk. Tidy, tidy, tidy. Tidy, tidy, tidy day. I've tidied them. They're tidy now. Oh, tidy.

Tidy. Does Dan do anything around here? Why do I have to clean the entire building myself? At least it's fully clean now. I can just rest until my shift is over, of course. I really wish I would have been able to get that saw, but how would I have been able to do anything? I couldn't alter anything at all. Finally I can rest until the end of my shift. I'm so exhausted and sleepy. Just gonna close my eyes.

Oh! Fight it! Fight the sleepiness! Fight it! Fight it! There's someone coming! Fight fight it Dan is here the danger the danger oh boy there you go well I'm dead

well that's not good oh it's just the counter. Hmm. Uh oh! That's not good. Oh my goodness!

Dan! What the hell is going on? Is that Dan on the ground or is that Dan outside? How do I know that's Dan? Answer the phone.

Okay.

Hello? Hello?

Do you want to play a little game?

Who is this?

I'm the one you called the police on. Rather an interesting turn of events, right?

Did you do this?

Who else would have done this?

You thought it was Dan?

You idiot.

What are you, dumb?

You should have seen the look on his face when he saw me.

I'm not stupid. Who else would have done this? You thought it was Dan? You idiot! What are you, dumb? You should have seen the look on his face when he saw me and when I saw him, ya get it? Dan was telling you how to be resourceful. Were you- were I resourceful? Were I? Was I? You know, I don't know! Yeah, resourceful's such a loose definition. I think that you can be resourceful in many ways.

I don't know.

Hmm.

I'm guessing not. Uh oh, he's approaching me. He- oh no! No, not the come hither hands!

Oh.

Oh, it's this guy. I'm gonna give you five seconds to escape Huh? Interesting. Okay. Oh Fuck well there. Well, there's nothing I can do Well, I mean the back door is locked man, I don't have a saw you died that wasn't meant to happen Oh Finally I go. Oh god. Why is it gonna be here? Wow, really man? Come on, man!

Really? Come on, man! But I can't run to the back door because it's locked! I know it's locked! Really? Are we doing this? Are we really doing this? We gotta go through this hole again? Okay, game developer. Let me talk to ya.

I'm gonna talk to ya, you know, you know, I'm good. We're going poppy playtime mode. Okay, I don't know Which number of game this is you make but you better pray It's not the fifth because what as soon as you make the fifth version, I'm gonna look I'm gonna look I'm gonna look I'm gonna see if this is your fifth game Your ass is burnt to a crisp Immediately, you'll feel it happening because I'm not looking I'm gonna look now. I'm looking right now actually

You better hope you better hope this isn't your fifth game man. You better fucking hope oh

Shit, what do we have here? You

Motherfucker think you can get in here and put in something mildly inconvenient in your fifth game?! I don't care. If I've never played a single one of these, this is your fifth time!

You should know better than that! YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER!

I expected so much more out of you on your fifth one! I am not angry. I'm disappointed. This is pure emotional sadness coming out of me, straight into your ass. Ignore that analogy because the anger is so much bigger than that

Can't believe after five games you would put this horrible

horrible mild inconvenience to me I literally can't believe this and I never I am Revoking much like avatar withdrew the bending. I'm revoking your game development ability, alright? UGH!

UGH! UGH!

UGH!

Sorry...

UGH! UGH!

UGH!

Had to do it...

UGH!

UGH!

UGH!

UGH! Oh no! Damn it, it's padlocked. If only I had accepted that damn-

Oh no! ... ... ...

Well, unfortunately, there won't be any future releases because you made the checkpoint a little bit farther behind than I wanted it to be. And if anyone can't tell that this is sarcasm, then they are getting also the same punishment

that you had. And I'm gonna revoke their ability to watch anyone play games ever.

HUEH!

UGH! Alright.

Well, to get the good ending, I would have to go back and somehow refuse anyone else from all their bullshit Yeah, I'm going in I'm going to how I want the good ending even though I highly doubt I have enough time to saw that but I'm guessing that I'm going to be able to saw it

in the interim

So what I should have realized is that the VCR would not have sold that well. But the thing is, the prices are kind of weird. I thought that for the time, even if it's going to DVDs, you know, it might have been more. But I'm guessing I was supposed to refuse the first one because there's no way in hell that I would ever be able to sell that again no I don't think we can take this it's too damaged and old it's not gonna have any resale value you really can't give me anything no I'm sorry going to the

trash again okay yeah no there's no reason I would have that that makes sense. Now we fast forward to the ending. I'll accept it for the handsaw. It's for my own good. I'll just put this thing in the back for now I'm too tired to set it up for display. You got damn right put it by the back door. Of course. How about I pre-cut it?

Pre-cut it? Pre-cut it Good thing it's there. Don't worry. I'm gonna get you your money and then you have no reason to be mad at me

Here's your money. Make sure to close the door on your own. Thanks. You won't regret this. I won't

You got some funny sense of humor for being a robber or a murderer a murderer

Alright, come on. I'm awake. Yay. All right, here we go. Finally. We're gonna get this

This is easy

Okay, here we go. Five seconds. You got it

Damn it. Oh The good ending

Okay

Here's the thing. Here's the thing. I must say and I say this with nicety the previous thing was a joke Obviously a joke about the whole removing your ability to game develop thing if unless you believe it and then the placebo effect is very real Padding time there is about two-thirds of this game That are not game and I don't mean to be overly critical about this But the slow walking even of the NPC characters does nothing to build the tension

It does nothing to build the game It is literally just a mechanism to pad time into the game. Because if people were walking at normal speed, it would barely detract from the time there, but it clearly, there is a difference in time. The tasks for doing things like cleaning the windows and, you know, mopping the floors, this is a staple in horror games of just placeholder things time killers time sinks. They're an opportunity to do things in this

Shop that make it so that it seems like you're working the job and you're sitting in the universe But also it just it's very meaningless. This guy wasn't even asked to do this This wasn't even a thing where his boss said you need to do this He even said as a character was like, I don't need I'm doing things. I wasn't even asked So it's effectively pointless what I'm doing except for wasting time It'd be okay

If these were tasks and like the customers come in and throw some shit and it's like, oh shit I'm gonna get fired if I don't clean that up. It's fine to have a vehicle it's less fine to have a pointless vehicle, you know to soak up time and There is almost no reason that the character needed to move that slow I'm fine with not having a sprint button with shift, but that was painfully slow That affects the game that affects the enjoyment of it- it- I understand things taking it slowly in horror games to build up the tension. That doesn't do that. In this case.

It makes it extremely painful to play. Especially if you're repeating it to get the good ending. And especially if that good ending is only something that you would really know if you had played it once through. I mean, there's a context clue there for being like oh DVDs are coming in VHS is on the way out But the price that was said which is like 60 bucks for me Back then for a used VHS is like yeah, okay that kind of makes sense for that price

I mean inflation being what it is, but I think even nowadays if I go to Let's say if I just go like eBay you can get DVD combos You get new ones for way overpriced you get an old one. Here we go. So it looks like this, right? So it was well within the range of what I was expecting to be like and this and Inflation being what it is is one thing but this is closer to the era when VHS's were, or VCR's were still in use. Supposedly, there's no concrete time of when this is happening.

And yeah, it would be harder to sell it, but it's like, I'm in a pawn shop. I'm fine with that being a thing and then you learn a lesson, but it's, it's compounded by the fact that it's so slow. It's just compound. It's not a huge thing. It is a huge thing if it keeps going though, right? And as the fifth game in your game library, I want to point this out because it makes the experience really unpleasant sometimes. But otherwise, not bad, right?

Not a bad experience overall. It's pretty okay, I'd say.

So,

credits. Doesn't say who made it. Also, uh, one more thing. If you're gonna make a pawn shop, I would look up what a pawn shop looks like. I wanna... I wanna... showcase that with a pawn shop, usually... usually, it's set up in a way that they can have all these different things,

but a pawn shop notoriously is trying to be very secure, right? Okay, here's what I imagine is the quintessential small town pawn shop might look like. Display cases, a mixture of assortment of things that are mounted along the back wall

Because if a gun is out there With the ammo that's bad. That's a bad pawn shop. That is not a pawn shop. That is simply

Illogical right? It's illogical, but a pawn shop still would have these display cases where you have all these assortment of things But it's all gonna be accessible behind the counter because you have so much random stuff coming into a pawn shop But you still want to show it and display it, but you don't want anyone just grabbing it and stealing it Especially the guns so I would design it in a way that it looks like an actual pawn shop. Here's another image of a pawn shop. Look, even this guy, look.

Pawn shop. Look at all the random bullshit in there.

Right?

But I'll leave it at that. I'm not gonna pick it apart too much. But again, it's all about the setting and the world building and making it all make sense. There's a lot of tasks to do in a pawn shop. There's inventory to make sure there's research to be done about the pricing. You could have a mechanic in here where you have to go to the computer and you have to do research about like what the pricing is and so when you're doing this, you know, you have to kind of to put into that. You might be like well, then it's so much like a pawn shop

It's like yeah, but you the name of your game is called pawn shop

Right

There has to be game around the pawn part of the pawn shop

otherwise

You're cleaning windows in you're sweeping floors when you should be pawning things and running a pawn shop. And then the scary things happen while all that's happening. Then you have vehicles for horror and scares that occur within the reality of a pawn shop, right? So if you're going to make something called a pawn shop, and if I've never seen the setting where the game of a horror game where it's in a pawn shop, incorporate as much as possible of a pawn shop into that so that you can have that experience be grounded in that, right?

There's some unique funky things about a pawn shop that I would love this. A lot of security systems, camera systems are involved a lot in pawn shops. You could have a lot, there's so many things here that just didn't happen

because this is just a generic random impossible shop as opposed to a pawn shop Okay, I'll leave it that I'm not maybe less. I'm not gonna I've been doing this way too long.
