He really does he was so patient and as someone who also has a hard time playing video games like Cristine he did a great job being her “co pilot” in the game.
I agreeeee! This is giving me flashbacks of playing a game with my mother and trying to teach her 😅 Almost made me tear my hair out 😂 Ben is da MVP here 😂 He deserves a vacation once stuff settles down 😂😅
Ok so in Cristine's defense - while it might have been frustrating to watch her play at times, she did get better with the controls! It's just practice. This stream was a lot of fun to watch and I hope they play more games in the future.
If you’ve not grown up playing games or have any interest in games then this is how you play. I’m glad Cristine persevered, there’s nothing worse when you’re trying to get involved in a game than other people telling you you’re rubbish at the game. Well done to both of you for getting through the game!
ugh yeah, i agree. and it's mostly men telling women that they suck at gaming when it isn't that we suck, it's that we don't have experience. many things are gendered, like how makeup is for women or gaming is for men. so ofc a lot of women wouldn't be good at playing at games when weren't raised to play them and were raised to play with dolls and stuffed animals.
I have an older brother and grew up in the 90’s playing video games with him so I’m actually pretty good. But I remember playing with friends who and had no experience and it definitely was difficult for them to catch on which is to be expected. Learning a new game when you’re familiar with games is one thing but learning when you’ve never played before is a who nother thing
As someone who does play video games this was so frustrating to watch LOL. But Ben deserves a vacation after this. And then after you guys come back from vacation, you should DEFINITELY play overcooked
@@annabethgranger2701 nope, it's basically cute bean ppl working together to make dishes in all kinds of whacky environments fighting bread, the controls are fine
You guys should play “It Takes Two.” That game almost ended me and my husband, I don’t think I’ve ever been more frustrated 😂😅 lol it’s seriously such a fun game though, I think there’s hope for Cristine 🤠
Hey, I just got into gaming over covid-times, and before that, I was a noob like Cristine. Other than Minecraft (which helped me get used to using a controller), here are some good games that aren't too hard :) - Any tell-tale game (Ben could play the harder parts, while Cristine makes the decisions). I'd recommend The Walking Dead game. - Life Is Strange (your decisions impact the storyline) - Little Nightmare's (for spooky season) - What Remains of Edith Finch
Stardew Valley is fantastic for 2 player streams and is really easy to start playing. Ben can go handle the mines while Cristine can obsess over cost analyses for what crops are the most cost effective to grow.
Am I the only one who thinks it's actually pretty interesting to watch someone who's inexperienced with video games play one? It's just kinda cool to see what controls and tasks are still intuitive for a non-gamer vs which ones don't translate well for someone looking to get into games
I actually didn’t get as mad or annoyed watching this as I have watching other people because they kept a pretty good energy on it all. I get more annoyed when people have a bad attitude or blame the game because they don’t pay attention
Lots of people were suggesting "Life is Strange" and I think that would be great to watch you guys play - but in small chunks because it's a different kind of stressful. It's almost like a cross between the "Am I an A-hole" podcasts and the Goose game 😂. It's more emotionally involved type stress, rather than goose game type stressful! Also, I don't game but I watched videos of people working through the entire game and then parts of other people's videos too to see different decisions being made. So I think it's a pretty good one to watch whether you're into gaming or not.
@Megan L nah i think ppl just genuinely wanna see them play games together. not being rude bc i LOVE J&J, but not everything is bout them lmao. just bc a couple has a podcast or game together doesn’t mean ppl / the couple are trying to be them. i watch this couple stream and play games called Evan And Katelyn too and never compared them bc they’re their own person. they also have a podcast. doesn’t mean they’re replicas of them.
Very concerned that Cristine hasn't heard a statue called a bust when the only reason the breast area is called the bust is because of the cut of the sculpture.
This was fun at first but I could see both of you getting kinda drained after an hour, and I don’t wanna see you do that to yourselves for views. I think the sims 4 would be much more Cristine’s speed. I find it soothing and most games stress me out. Oooooorrrrr you guys could just make whatever content you want and we’ll watch you have fun with it. 😘 💿
I have never had so much fun watching a game! I was honestly laughing so much! I would like to see Cristine play slime rancher. It is low stress and has cats!
Simply I want you to know I usually miss the streams but I always always watch them back and it brings me so much joy even if I’m not there live. Thank you for making this one of my favorite parts of the week
I feel like all couples should play this game together to work on communication and working together skills. lol My husband and I will be picking it up!
Starting at 1:22:20 the entire time Cristine was standing on the fence so the lady couldn’t shut it- I was cackling 😂 And then when they both couldn’t pick up the glasses 🤣🤣
I absolutely loved this stream (very entertaining and was laughing throughout), but I could not do what Ben did. Although I could feel his frustration at times, but he was still very sweet to Cristine, which is what made it enjoyable. 💜
You guys should play firewatch- it is a story game that is kind of thriller-ish, but not fast paced. It is more about how your decisions impact the story. And its really beautiful. Julien streamed it once
snipper clips on switch would be so good for the both of you XD Also what made the stream so entertaining was watching you play Cristine! If yall do gaming streams again it shouldnt be just Ben (nothing against him, watching him be frustrated was part of the fun too :P)
Portal 2, Battle Block Theater, and Castle Crashers are all great two-to-multiplayer games! Portal 2 & Battle Block are more puzzle-based sort of things, and Castle Crashers is a cute one for 2-4 players where you're cute lil knights trying to rescue princesses.
I really enjoyed this! More gaming please! I've also enjoyed Ben on the stream, hoping to see more of him on the streams! Love you simply and the whole fam 💕🌸💕🌸💕🌸💕🌸💕
"Papers, Please!" is maybe a lot to handle for you Cristine, maybe start with a similar game like "Not tonight". It's basically the same but instead of border patrol you check ID's for people who want to go into clubs. It's a bit easier, but it can be challenging after a while.
Look at all those chickens! Anyway, it was nice to watch! HOOOOONK Edit: it's really cool to watch the chat guide the two of them through the game, love the wholesome
Try playing Katamari Damacy! It's utterly mad and quite silly! This stream made ma laugh so much. I speak The Queen's English as I am from England (in a Cristine voice) and can't believe that there are so many words that must be different in Canada. Prune. Bust. Goose/Duck. Cristine Goose in the box was amazing. Thank you for the laughs!
I will say even though this was frustrating at times to watch, I really enjoyed it. Can we do once a month gaming where we get to watch Ben play a video game with Cristine, please.
I really enjoyed watching this stream! Unfortunately I'm not able to watch it live because Cristine usually streams at 1 am for me so i watch them later. With the previous streams I found it hard to watch them all the way because they were very interactive and since it wasn't live anymore it kinda lost its appeal fast (as an after-watcher). I watched this one all the way through and had some good laughs. Great content!
I am absolutely living for this pure chaos 😆 Cristine I think you would enjoy the professor Layton games! They are all about puzzle solving, check them out.
This was hilarious!!! I was watching this in my garden en after an hour my neighbour asked my husband if i was ok!!! 🤣 Thank you for over 2 hours of non stop crying my eyes out of laughter!!! 😚
lol at the end when Ben was just begging her to follow because they were so close to finishing the game. I think it was incredibly adorable watching Christine just run around not knowing what to do...like a goose!
I volunteer with a bird rescue! The goose in the game is a domestic goose. They are typically kept on farms for eating (and possibly eggs? I don't know about farms, I work with an urban bird rescue lol) but these types of geese do escape into the wild sometimes, and chill with Canadian Geese. I always love seeing a domestic goose that has found native birds to show them the ropes, I always imagine they got there through a daring escape.
Though I enjoyed it to the fullest, for gamers it was more like a patience test. 🙈😅 But no worries, a few more tries Christine will become comfortable with a console. 😊
wait i think that's my screenshot in the thumbnail?? i haven't watched the whole video so idk if it's a screencap from the stream but it looks exactly like a screenshot i posted on twitter in 2019 when the game first came out
I've watched quite a few people play this game but this is without a doubt my absolute favourite playthrough! I'm so excited to watch you both play more games, you're so cute together and the terrible team work reminds me of my fiancé and me when we try co-op games!
I joined the stream at around 1:28 yesterday and joining at that point was a very specific experience: Today I've watched the rest and let's just say Cristine has improved a lot overnight, I think she was kind of out of concentration by that last level. It was an amazingly hilarious section to watch first!
