It's not a scripted loss.

Airier: Let’s watch something safer instead! Also Airier, 1 minute later: *I regret my decisions*

I should point out that "Severe anal bleeding" is a status effect in this game

I wouldn’t call Fear and Hunger an 8-bit Elden Ring. Elden Ring’s world doesn’t care about the player, F&H’s meanwhile wants to make you suffer.

"Let's do something safer" **chooses fear and hunger**

This game is a tight ball of knots that you have to untangle carefully one knot at a time. And the rope is made of barbed wire. And the barbed wire is dipped in poison. And you're being hunted by wolves while you're doing this.

4:58 "why is he blurring the arm?" The guy is slitting his wrist/cutting off his hand with the sword. KZfaq doesn't like suicide/gore, so he's blurring it for monetization.

For a more indepth lore explanation, the channel "Worm Girl" has a good video going over the story of the first game trying to figure out which parts of which endings is "canon" according tothe second game.

the best review of this game i have read is "this game is berserk only your the side-character"

ah one of the few rpgs with "anal bleeding" status

Very fun fact: instead of cutting off both of the Ogre's legs, you could chop off his """stinger""" to make him double over and lose balance to land the headshot.

I love how he sells the intrigue of the game and making you want to experience it yourself Also, the second game pretty much removes all the disturbing sex stuff and you can just play it instead of this

0:41 “I know what I’m getting into” Honestly, if there was one creator on the platform I would have *no* idea what’s coming next, it would be SuperEyepatchWolf. Sure, it might be worrying in some way, but you never know *quite* how things are going to go.

As a person who just got the fear and hunger series just a couple of week ago, you are in for a rides

A Berserk inspired Rouguelike RPG-esc Survival Simulator where every enemy functions like a dragon encounter in DnD. Yep, that's cruel.😂

"I decided to chose somethign SAFER!" You have chosen.....poorly.

This and its sequel Termina are great and terrible, filled with violence, mutilation, and ancient gods. 10/10 would recommend to those who are not super sensitive!

Oh this is gonna be a fun one, personally i prefer the setting of second game but this one is cool too Funny thing is wolf only scratched the surface of what you can do in this game, he didn't mention sigils or talent tress :p

I would honestly say that Fear and Hunger (and it's sequel Termina even more so) is a game of the same type as Elden Ring and Tears of the Kingdom in the sense of *"the devs clearly gave up trying to make the game balanced a long time ago"* The key diference here is Elden Ring and TOTK at least have a tutorial to make sure you at least have a semblance of a idea of what you're doing, Fear and Hunger just trows you into the deep end not caring if you're gonna "figure it out" or not (at least in the sequel there's a few panflets in the begining area that teach the basics.... it's also REALLY easy to miss those panflets by the way), wich means that for a long time the game will be unbalanced in a unfavorable way to you On the bright side, if you do eventualy figure the game out, it becomes A LOT MORE easier and the satisfaction from doing so is almost palpable, on the hand though, the road to that point is definetely gonna hurt

1:36 Airier: "...oh yeah,i know exactly where this is going" *Airier did in fact, not know where this was going.*

Its not a scripted loss. He is just deecribing something that can happen. If you know what youre doing then it wont.

Fun fact, that bookcase hiding a secret passage needs a book called the Mockup Book to open, which, as far as I know, can only be found in the small library of the first area of the dungeon.

the game has a censored mod for youtubers. ConnorDawg did a playthrough and got one ending in around a hour the game has a lot of endings

One of the best things about Fear and Hunger (1 and 2) is that it is so unapologetic with it's inspirations. I mean they stole JESUS CHRIST.

safer he said ... SAFER

This really isn't all that accurate depiction of the game. Like there are dozens of secrets that can help you out that SEW didn't even figure out yet.

“Why?” It’s fun. Plain and simple.

Should we mention the Dungeon Nights mode or let him discover it by himself?

I'm going to say... Elden RIng is way more forgiving and kind than that game...

Sounds like it really puts the "horror" back into survival horror,... despite not being that kind of game.

F&H in a nutshell: "ooh, a *Red Vial,* that must be a health potion!"

There's also a big door with a.....crow...on it? 🌚

"I would never do this willingly" All right, how much we gotta pay ya?

by the way, Hades is super cool, i totally recommend it

This game remind me of a dnd gm video by Web Dm about sport combat and war combat Where sport combat is fighting a fair fight to the deat, while war combat is you trying to get any advantages on monsters that will do the same. So in sport combat you would stand and fight to the death, while war combat you would dig spike traps throw burning oil and sent the dogs on your enemies

I can't wait when you get to the sequel.

You can get items from corpses, you just have to press enter of them and then search them. The game does not tell you this.

If you ever feel like playing there is a mod that covers… things with pinecones so you could actually stream the game

Airier what is funny that is not a scripted game over that is just the game 😱

:) Thanks for this reaction, I kind of feel the the same way, almost wanting to play, but seeing a lot to discourage me. In a far less disturbing, but tangential vein to this, another _"Russia simulator"_ game, that's incredibly lauded, but almost no-one has completed, despite articles calling the most important game in decades, would be Pathologic and the _'Pathologic is Genius, And Here's Why'_ video would be a great watch, as well as an explanation why there's currently two remakes of a game so few people stuck with. Definitely a game that can produce an enthralling experience, but, for most people, one that's best experienced in dissection. As to _Hades,_ I simply booked marked it for ages, but last Christmas I was without internet and I can't recommend enough just jumping in: if you don't have speed runner reflexes, it merely a prompt to play more cautiously and defensively, which is normally sensible anyway; I preferred ranged weaponry for a long time due to that and though I resisted until I'd beaten it once, the rogue-lite elements mean you can literally buy 2 extra lives.

Funnily enough, the Hydra is actually the LEAST difficult enemy. It doesn't do anything other than spew empty threats at you since it can't move on its own.

what is sad/funny what you saw is not the worst of it if anything that was the least 🤬 thing that can happen to you.

Yeah. I think we found something worse than Corpse Party for you here. ^_^

I think that removed scene was the orgy in the woods so what do we have to do to get Airier to play this i mean he still hasnt finished Corpse Party I think 😊

He is right though, you can theoretically beat this game on your first attempt in under an hour. Just as you can theoretically beat Magnus Carlson in a chess game in which the both of you need to cut off one of your own fingers or toes each time you lose a piece while you're also solving a 1-hour escape room when Magnus is taking each of his turns. Same thing 🥰

Personally, my interest in hard games comes from childhood, in feeling satisfaction when understanding difficult things: aka "things that people older than me knew" back then. I remember the first time the concept of mathematical equations "cliqued" in my brain as a kid, opening up a world of possibilities I didn't even know of. So to this day, few things inject more dopamine in my brain than learning/realizing new information. Thus why I enjoy games that are considered "unfair". While I ADORE casual games too, like Stardew Valley, they are not interchangeable. One experience keeps my brain serene and ready to learn, the other sharpens it and helps me to learn how to process stress in a safe environment. Too much of any is bad (for me, at least).

Suggestion, check out "what does each Strive character theme mean?" By GekkoSquirrel. It's funny, analytical AND you don't explicitly NEED to already know the game to get his points.

You should really check out the animation "New God" by Boalizard, because it's so damn good and summarises the plot of F&H decently well for anyone already roughly familiar with it

Cant wait for the next part. And yes, if you fail the coin toss while trying to save - you die.

This game don't seems cruel for the cruel sake, but cruel to force you to play in the most fun way possible

It's Stockholm Syndrom, Airier.

Stockholm Syndrome. ... You asked what it's called when you "love your captor".

About the saving question, there are if I remember correctly 2 methods of saving, Beds but all but one of the has a coin flip and the last one has you fight [Spoilers] first, and the rare item that is a Book of Enlightenment.

Please consider watching the Rerez channels 'Just Bad Games' series at some point. They pretty much go around looking for inexcusably bad games, review the gamplay and story, and go into the development processes/histories for them (if there *is* any). The thumbnails for each video should give you a good idea of the tone of the series, lol

Once part 2 is out Ill try and list what I remember from the uncut version before the folks at youtube HQ took away my precious shock-value

so basicallly u watched the most realistic rpg that ever made there is no such thing as plot armour

About that title. 1. It's not 8 bit. 2. Eldin Ring could NEVER

when you play this game, its all about knowledge which makes it so good, learning about the familiar yet alien world of fear and hunger is really fun. Its challenging because you don't know anything, the more you know the easier it becomes. After completing the game the first time, the next run will be easier and more satisfying. There are still stuff up to chance, but its really not that hard once you understand everything. Its not like you need fast reaction time or anything

Oh. You skipped the various "what the Internet did to X" videos, and the (actually pretty good) wrestling videos, and went straight to "If Kentaro Miura was a game dev instead of a mangaka". (that's the guy who made Berserk)

fear and hunger is a game I want to recommend but can't in good mind as some of the stuff is pretty bad

Im late to the video but holy crap you actually started reacting to Fear and Hunger! Much appreciate. Hopefully you wont feel...well not disappointed but wont feel bored by it in some form

Guy chose Fear and Hunger for *safe* option

Ogre fighting for dummies: have ≈70 power, attack the cleaver arm, guard to autopass the coin flip. Then, just kill the bad guy, guarding on each 3'th turn to avoid getting destroyed.

Cant wait for the part 2 of his reaction. XD

It's not 8-bit Elden Ring. It's 16-bit Berserk. Also Terror and Starvation is basically a NG+ mode, but instead of anything carrying over it changes enemy placements and doubles up on some encounters, it's meant for people who have played Fear and Hunger who want to change things up.

This is the kinda series that earned its AO rating. I'm surprised CDawg and now Ironmouse streamed it.

how it is 8bit Elden Ring when it was released before that game

This game seems more like Berserk than Dark Soul, and I never even play Dark Soul to know how hard that game is, kind of awesome for a niche game concepts

28:45 you will lose your save if you fail the bed or don't use a book of enlightenment.

If you enjoy these game analysis videos from Super Eyepatch Wolf I'd suggest watching 'How Mother 3 Breaks You' I've always been intrigued with the game especially since Nintendo never released in outside Japan

I wouldn't call this game 8-Bit Elden Ring, it's far too gruesome and creepey, it'd call it Berserk-like and it gets better, this game has a sequel spoiler alert: 2:40 this floating head is one of if not the most useful possible party members, he's also very difficult to recruit if you don't know how

The game is 30% off on steam atm, so for $5.59 you can see if you find something he didnt hahaha

I don’t think that was a clip of spelunky 2 near the beginning, the jet pack didn’t blow up on contact with lava

For me, it's not about whether a game is challenging or punishing, high skill or low, what matters to me is the depth of the mechanics. Give me a game with systems that interact with one another and mechanics to reverse engineer, and make it deep enough that I can read about all the various systems for hours, and I am one happy camper, it's why I love PoE so much. It's also why I haven't played Fear and Hunger, or its sequel, because I can see already that it's a game that would consume my life for a few months at least, and I'm not ready for that commitment right now.

Im surprised John used Neural Cloud music

The best game I ve played since Elden ring , crazy stuff

Play the game ❤❤❤

WHen you start with "Sonic The Hedgehog is to much for me." but I'm watching your video and I know how much worse what your about to get into is. O_O

Stockholm syndrome. I know someone else probably said it already, but yeah. p.s. airier that hurt. I unpause and wolf starts talking about how it released in 2018 and your first response is "oh it's old". please let me hold on to my shred my happiness of the "old" times dear god lol

Please finish this video really enjoyed your thoughts on it

Just do what I do: just play the game for yourself with the game's wiki open on your phone

Yes I have been waiting for this I asked airier to react to this for so long

More like 16 bit Berserk

Marbles hurt him

Oh boy my favourite game! Gonna enjoy watching you reacting to this Stockholm syndrome of a game!

"Safer"

*16-Bit

The way youve written the title makes you sound like a game journalist.

if you think of Fear and Hunger as a survival horror game and not an RPG it makes a lot more sense. Also, sometimes when you lose enemies will SA your character.

Sonic you coverd

Maybe watch the Sonic Fandubs series if you want something genuinely good. 😂

Play fear and hunger!!!!!!

Cdaghva made a vedio on this game also that goes into a different topics of the game

How many likes for you to stream it on Twitch hehe

thank you for watching this

Hey, if you finished the game, then you DID play Dark Souls correctly. :D

I honestly thought you'd be skipping this one (I wouldn't blame you if you had)

This game is just Berzerk without the player not controlling Guts

5:33 Stockholm syndrome my friend

Come on Airier play the game. Doesn’t its unique mechanics, strange setting, and fascinating story entice you… just a little.😈
