Those Bloodborne streams were so funny, watching Rob's anger slowly build up into a crescendo of despair and fury and then being grumpy the rest of the stream, good times.
It’s when you’ve been playing a game, then go back to another game, storm back in thinking “I’ve got this” and then proceed to fail miserably by pressing all the wrong buttons. I’ve done that more times XD
You guy's videos make me so happy. Many sleepless nights I have just watched and rewatched the Tuesday checklist playlist. Thank you for the content and making me laugh.
I can relate with Ash about Miribelle only I thought I might get a nice item for "storing" 4,500 geo and was a bit miffed when she disappeared. When I found her again I spent a cathartic 5 minutes wailing on her. There's only one other person I love smacking around more in Hollow Knight who can be found in the coliseum.
I recently thought I was getting close to the Dragon Age: Inquisition platinum until I realized it required you to play on the highest difficulty... It's my fault, for somehow missing that. Felt pretty foolish.
@@zelamorre1126 I actually just discovered the Golden Nug a few days ago! Unfortunately, I'm a bit of a Rob when it comes to Platinum hunting. Playing on hard difficulties... Haha
Dynamite Dave will always be my favourite. In RDR2 I was made to feel just as silly, an NPC came up to me and asked me to look after his cart. He went away and I waited and waited. I waited for 10 minutes - he didn't come back
Friend of mine was having a frustrating time in Elden ring when he randomly got invaded. The guy had no weapons or armor. He ran at the invader with a greatsword, the guy drank a flask and promptly exploded. Killing him instantly. It was glorious.
How about a slight refurb? A Wednesday Wishlist, "Games I wish I was better at", "character I wish I could hang with", "games I wish I found earlier", etc?
I agree the platinum frenzy is real…and caused by PS Access!! I didn’t care for platinums until I started watching this channel two years ago. Since then, I’ve now gone from one plat (My Name is Mayo and that I kept it at that for years!) to 14 platinums.
I played a lot of Hollow Knight and understand the visceral rage when you lose a ton of Geo, enough where I had to take a break from it. And just now, watching Ash's second selection, I just came to the realization I have lost a lot of money.
Though Dave's entry is great, in truth it didn't make a fool of him, it made him brilliant. How you ask? Well Dave only has to do those streams to entertain us, and it will be hard to top how entertaining "I'm the boss" ended up being.
Rosie's should have been that recent fall guys fiasco where she's so confident she'll qualify "I don't need to Ash, L O O K A T T H I S" only to get eliminated mid air before the finish line!!
The realm tear where you had to fight 2 at once, that frustrated me until I read about the attack that could shove 1 off the cliff right at the very start of the battle.
I can relate to Rosie. I did it with The Witcher 3 having never played a Witcher game prior to that and put it on the hardest difficulty. I did finish it on that difficultly too, but there was much swearing and rage. That first Griffin took me about two hours. Well worth playing it on hardest though. It’s the best way because every aspect of the combat becomes not only relevant, but essential. You will be using your signs, your potions, your decoctions, your bombs and your oils.
Not exactly related but since it's April Fools Day on Friday: My favourite April Fools joke for gaming was when Yakuza pivoted the direction of Yakuza Like A Dragon into a Turn Based RPG for a fake trailer, that was absolutely GENIUS because it became real afterwards and it was excellent :)
Just had to pause Rosie's entry and tell my wife that I literally did the same thing with God of War! Got to a point of trying games on a harder difficulty, and then spent about 30 minutes on the first enemy encounter XD
This was more a case of unrecognized stress from Uni and me handling it exactly 0 amount, but when I had to _quit_ playing Horizon: Zero Dawn because I was becoming too stressed about being caught by the Rooster mechs, and I only stressed myself out more by bumping the difficulty level down (if you've played it with a certain pattern/cadence to how the game flows moving it down throws that all off and I still was practically breaking out in hives over those alert robots) before moving it back up. Then quitting, and going and playing Thief (shush, I love it) instead because at least I knew that I was going to have to always be a stealthy sneak thief no matter what.
For Rob - mine was turning my PS2 off on MGS2 when Campbell told me too. I genuinely thought the game had crashed....scissors!!!! 17yr old me did not do well.....😂
Both Limbo and Inside are full of nasty little tricks where it convinces you that you've worked a puzzle out only for the spider or trap to get you anyway
A moment that really got me was in persona 5 strikers, I just finished my playthrough and started a new game +. In persona you get the option to play on merciless difficulty( which is very fitting) and I thought how hard can it be. I start on new game + and got completely obliterated within the first 30 seconds of the game. I just said no, restarted my new game+ on hard and haven't tried merciless again
I had stopped being recommended videos a long time ago, and as it turns out, I've been unsubbed. Good to find the channel again, and think everyone is doing a great job, but sad to see so much less of Rob. He was a big part of why I loved this channel!
Drakengard 2 on the second playthrough. I was evading the energy bursts from the bone casket for about an hour and a half. I didn't realize until the next day that I needed to hit the thing multiple times.
The best entry is Ash's emotional falling apart because of Millibele. I felt the same rage, but refused to google it. Oh my... how good it was to find her.
Not really mine but i was watching a playthrough of Silent Hill the room with 2 people constantly talking about anything but the game. They were too busy talking it up and got so overconfident they thought they didn't need to save all of the health they were finding. Cause you heal up when you get back to the apartment. Some of you will know where this is going. They got to the return from the apartment after rescuing Eileen part. Low and behold they weren't healing up in the apartment anymore. In fact, the apartment was actually damaging them. As it will when it's haunted. They of course got very stuck and couldn't progress because they were just too damaged. Very satisfying to watch them get their comeuppance for not paying attention to what the game was trying to tell them over and over. They however, rage quit never to return. Ah, fun times.
WHile I love trophy hunting, I'm actually really glad that Undertale only has these troll-trophies. Imagine trophies for doing the genocide run. Would kinda ruin the concept of choice of the game
My most recent one was in Horizon Forbidden West. I won't spoil it exactly but I went through the effort of decoding a "secret" message and feeling quite good for figuring it out until I'd decoded it... definitely not a useful message 😂
I'm certain I've contributed about 50 of those "is this jump going to kill me" bloodstains in Elden Ring. I learned about rainbow gems embarrassingly late.
Rosie, God of War mode absolutely devastated me in the exact same opening combat when I was going for the platinum. It was easily the biggest wake up call I ever had for a difficulty spike. Thinking about how I went from that opening fight to beating Sigrun for my final trophy is mindblowing, in retrospect.
Anyone else foolishly try to squeeze in all the extracurricular activities before attempting the dungeon in Persona 5? I really thought I could hang out with all the friends and study for school and leave a single night to smash the dungeon hahahaha
I put GOW on Normal but removed health bars so there was no way of knowing the level or how hard they were or even how close to killing them you were. Enjoyed it a lot more because you fought enemies way too soon in some cases even if they looked easy.
Dark Souls 2 was my very first FromSoft game. The first time I got to Majula I got savagely murdered by a bunch of tiny little piggies. That was my "everything here will kill you" Dark Souls lesson.
Mine has to be Silent Hill 1. Got stuck on a combination puzzle for days, back tracked to see if I missed anything randomly tried different combinations etc. Then one day epiphany, it was how many limbs on the picture above. Felt like a right tool for over thinking it!
My Cousin was the first person to show me Resident Evil 3 Nemesis on his PlayStation 1 but usually I was only watching him playing and then he decided to let me play but I didn't know the game at that time and I fell for that and I was so fool to think (wow, he finally let me play) but he made me play when we have to get down the stairs to get out of the RPD and then... Well, I think everyone knows what is coming, don't you? Hahahahaha The Nemesis came through the window and I think that was the worse jump scare they I had in my game life hahahahahahahahahaha my Cousin let me play exactly that moment to laugh the whole week about that hahahahahahahahahaha my God! I drop the Dual Shock 1 that time hahahahaha
Platinum frenzy hit me had a while ago, I then infected the other half. He now has over 100 while I'm sitting in the 70s having owned playstation far longer...
There were four circular flower beds, and in the middle of them a sort of rectangle with no straight lines. With only the width of a flower bed, calculate the surface area of the rectangle. .... An hour. Then I googled it.
I wished I had a life like these guys, where I'm from, it's so dull and lifeless and people don't hang around with me much, despite me try to do it fun things,, it's not fun on your own , people where I'm from just chat and drink that's about it I wanna meet people like this and do this stuff
This whole thing were you can change the difficultly within the same game file is a never ending source of amusement to me. I have never played a game where you could do that. I'm not going to say it doesn't sound like doesn't have it's perks but my brain is so ingrained with you have to start the whole game over to change it that I just find myself having a laugh at the kids having it easy.
I played it on the hardest difficuulty first time. Boy did i take a beating but i finished it. To be fair i beat all the other God of war games on the hardest difficulty too, so really i am just built differently.
Nier Replicant. Ending A: Yeah! Take that you evil thing. I'm the BOSS and I won't let you hurt anyone. Ending B: When you finally understand what those evil things are really saying and you start wondering if you're the evil one.
I played it pretty recently and can't understand why you would think about it that way. Pretty sure main character can't understand shades even on subsequent playthroughs. He thinks all shades are like the crazy ones. So he is in the right. He wants to save his sister. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@tankian4545 Oh I know and completely agree. From the protagonist's perspective, it didn't matter if he was in the right or not. Even if he understood them (and you are right he didn't understand what they were saying, the 2nd playthrough was Kaine's side and she understood the shades from the moment she became one), he would have kept on going without feeling any remorse. I meant the game fooled me, the player who controlled them. In the first playthrough, I happily did whatever needed to be done, but in the second playthrough, I was like 'WAIT?! WHAT?'. I'm saying the game fooled me into thinking that there was a clear divide between right and wrong. I was on the good side and not on the monster side. Turns out there was no monster side at all.
