I believe everyone who’s covered Class Of 09 to this day is either completely wrong or hasn’t even come close to figuring out the full picture:
Class Of 09 is a game that blew away my expectations in every way possible. The level of depth I had to go into to fully solve the game is insane. I had to explore characters, theorising about pasta and such, I had to explore secret lore hidden behind anonymous messages, and I had to explore the game’s themes, which included incredible sociological concepts that were implemented beautifully. Overall, Class Of 09 is a game that is unlike any other (other than the ONE sequel) and I believe that everyone else has covered it wrong, so I decided to come up to the pitch myself. Hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer: Please click off if you have issues with any of the following topics. Anxiety, depression, graphic content, child abuse, bullying, sexual abuse, pedophilia, hate groups. In general, the game covers sociological concepts that are generally shied away from by the mass media, turning it into a comedy. If this nature of content is troubling to you, click off.

Creator note:
First of all, Class Of 09 is an amazing game, I will definitely be covering the SINGLE sequel (the reup) sometime in the future, but I definitely need a break from Nicole lmao. Speaking of the NON-EXISTENT OTHER SEQUEL, I might make a video on the shorter side going through all the continuity errors, mainly within the characters (cause ong they butchered them, it’s literally on the level of a bad parody), but that’ll take a while for me to get to. However, I am planning on covering other games like class of 09 that allow me to analyse deep psychological and sociological ideas such as for example, Needy Streamer Overload, although I’m not sure yet, haven’t played it. I just noticed that on YouTube, nobody really talks about these things, and since I find them so interesting, I wanted to change that. Also, in general there’s just a lot of games that have gone overlooked on here. If you personally want to see me cover anything specific, MAKE SURE TO SUBSCRIBE FIRST (doesn’t actually matter lol, but do it anyway, if this was my job I’d be able to get out a video of this quality every couple months, so it’s in your best interest) then comment it down below, I read every comment and consider every suggestion. In fact, Class Of 09 wasn’t discovered by me, it was suggested by a friend, so who knows, maybe your idea will inspire the next movie length analysis! Anyways, I’m nearing the character limit for the description, so thank you for watching, and have a good day!
