Classifications Data 14: (V1/0:04:56) This is- oh my God
that's the house from the game
Religion

The word God in this section is uttered by PewDiePie

when he has traced the forest in the game. At the
moment, from a distance he was surprised to see the
house and he immediately approached it then said “This
is- oh my God that's the house from the game”. it is a
building he once visited while playing an earlier demo
version of the game that has been released by the game
publisher.
 Reasons Data 07: (V1/0:03:38) Holy shit! That
looks incredible is this a movie?
Surprised Expression

At the start of the game, seen some cutscene is really

stunning in terms of graphics. But when entering the next
scene, PewDiePie was very surprised because the graphics
are stunning away from his expectations when playing this
game in a demo version. PewDiePie looks very much
enjoying the cutsecene and said “Holy shit! That looks
incredible is this a movie?”. Researcher finds that the word
holy shit is a word that is triggered by a suprise expression
because the cutscene is beyond his expectations.
