I wanted to do something extremely unoriginal this time in memory of one of my favorite runs. Hope you enjoy! More content, especially Project Zomboid stuff on the way soon I've just had a nice time travelling at home with family and friends. Hope you've all had a great holiday, whatever you celebrate! :)

I just find it cool that Torsolo's doctor that installs his new limbs is also his lover.

ah yes, another phenomenal entry into the Torso Cinematic Universe

Torsolo had no arm, just a wooden hand. I find the idea that he had a wooden hand sticking out of his shoulder funny

I shed a tear for Maverick after this; her initial human compassion having unfortunately set her mate on the alluring path AWAY from his humanity, and ergo, away from herself. It is reminiscent of those old horror movies where the spouse either grows to gargantuan proportions or shrinks to the molecular level, embarking on his solitary journey of discovery and eventual extinction, while those who loved him are only left to mourn....and to wonder.

The ending is like John Wick, except instead of his dog it was all because he ate without a table.

“When the body stops moving, the mind starts thinking.” -Ambiguous Amphibian…. Now that’s deep

So... A woman falls from the sky, sees a guy with a singular peg leg and a singular arm ending in a wooden hand and said... "Yes. This is attractive."

Okay but Maverick was actually the MVP bc without her torsolo would still be a torso

Moral of the story: Always eat with a table

Liked the music and feel of this one. The pacing was good. It's not easy to wax poetical about a stump man for 15 minutes but I would have listened for 25.

torsolo in Italian is the part that you left when you eat an apple. this makes it 10x more funny

Slogan of this survival is: “It’s just can’t be worse so everything we do is good”

Ironically, eating without a table should've been an achievement for torsolo.

13:01 Torsolo's resolve is tested... 13:04 *Murderous* 13:21 Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

"sweaty, nudist, pessimist." Sounds like my dream girl

You should do a play through with the mod “eating without a table just kills you” That would be so much fun to watch.

YES, JUST GOT FINISHED WATCHING THE KENSHI TORSOLO LETS GO

"Thanks to all of my patrons, for each one of them is like another limb!" I thought you were the ambiguousamphibian, not the monstrousmillipede o.o

Poor Maverick She found a lonely Torso in the woods and decided to help him. By chance, she happened to have the medical knowledge to grant him limbs so that he could again move and manipulate. Through hours of surgery they bonded. Torso found her sophisticated culture and philosophy interesting and attractive, and Maverick was moved by Torso's desire to once again be able to accomplish what others find so easy. Torso and Maverick fell deep into love for one another. But it was too good to be true. Torso became distant, locking himself away for hours to study. He yearned ever more to bypass the physical limitations of his form. Torso's slight aloofness and awkward personality descended first into neuroticism and then psychosis and extreme paranoia. He became obsessed with perfecting his body, replacing his organic parts with experimental technology, he removed anything he deemed imperfect. The night of Torso's final surgery Maverick awoke to the wails of megasloth and fauna alike. Torso had been stirred into some kind of trance, mowing down everything in sight while ranting about slight errors in NBC sitcom Community. Maverick spent hours nursing a catatonic Torso as he mumbled incessantly "Why does Shirley make the signum crucis if she is a Baptist?" and "Why are there palm trees in Colorado" and "Shouldn't Jeff have been automatically disbarred for a minimum of eight years as per Colorado Bar Association's rules?". After days of diligence and patient coaxing Maverick finally made a breakthrough when she absentmindedly complimented the evident talent in the writing staff of NBC sitcom Friends. The lucidity granted by this disturbance allowed Torso a greater vision of the real world, in which he found himself sat in bed and eating. With vague memory he recalled, to his absolute loathing and discomfort, the many meals his beloved Maverick had fed him without the aid of a table. This appalling affront to basic etiquette and standard practice drove Torso through a death spiral catharsis, after which he feigned recovery and set his plan in motion to enact revenge. He seduced Maverick, she had become reluctant in the past weeks, and professed his love for her repeatedly throughout their lovemaking and, at the climax of their union, whispered "So, did Troy break his shoulders? or his knee?". Maverick reeled in horror as Torso produced a rifle and began filling her with lead like she had fed him non-table served food. Maverick's body slumped like Pierce in the trampoline episode, Torso moved on, walking into the sunset a savage of ration and logic, no longer human.

That ending though... so terrifyingly poetic.

All I can think when I see the torso is... Landmine Has taken my sight Taken my speech Taken my hearing Taken my arms Taken my legs Taken my soul Left me with life in hell!

Wow, truly a beautiful journey. What a great start to 2022, especially. Great work! You're the KZfaqr that actually got me into Rimworld very recently. I bought it during the sale this Christmas, never would've tried it if I hadn't seen your ice sheet series.

That ending was wonderful

“From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me” - Torsolo

YESSSS, TORSOLO RETURNS! kind of….

1:01 Missed a chance to say "I was severely handicapped due to the fact I was severely handicapped."

"After all, Rimworld is a colony manager for people who enjoy automation games more than colony managers. But there was still one major source of great dissatisfaction." Assuming this was intentional, I see what you did there.

I love how being named “Good” is less confusing than being named “Thomas” as a woman lmao

AA could read to me an extensive essay on paint drying, and I still know on my heart of hearts that it would still be absolutely fire! Happy new year brother

I can't believe how much Torsolo abandoned his humanity by the end, it's poetic. He really had gone so far from where he started, he thought eating without a table would be nothing to someone like him. His story of progress and overcoming challenges became a story of how he died.

An edgerunner who fell over the edge and turned into a cyberpsycho all too common in night city

I literally binged your other RimWorld videos and was literally thinking about if you did a Torsolo RimWorld series just this morning! Am I a god? Can I will things into existence? Maybe I can will friends into existence! Nope, even as a god I can't...

Oh my god, Torsolo was so strong he defeated the third dimension

4:59 When life gives you lemons you make them combustible and burn life's house down. -Cave Johnson

Not gonna lie, I miss your rim world play throughs. It actually really made me relaxed and helped me through lockdowns. I’d love to see more

The joke was on us fellas, every pawn in Rimworld is just a torso, just look at em!

...I absolutely loved this narration and quest. Your references were on point, bro. Even if the gyre widened, Torsolo, the center, could eventually hold... with the appropriate prosthetics. Edit: ...until he lost his grip...

Torsolo struggled so much with building that wall the first day not because he only had one wooden limb, but because he was holding the nails with his wooden hand and pounding them in with a rock glued to his forehead. He often forgot he didn't complete a section before moving on to the next because of his self-induced concussions.

Once he regains his limbs he must have a torso army

Torso got Chromed up and went Cyberpsycho

After watching every single Rimworld related video on your channel I decided to get the game and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My colony's dog got killed so I decided to store it in the freezer in case I got resurrector mech serum but my colonists decided to butcher and eat it instead. 10/10 Would freeze my dead dog again

Surgery really is something of a wildcard. One time, my colony doctor fell ill from an infection in his left leg, and with no hope of building up immunity in time. So, I put my second-best to the task of saving this poor soul's life. He somehow managed to fail to sever the infected limb initially, but on the second try, the runner-up doctor found purchase - in the unconscious doctor's heart and right kidney. It is beyond me how he went from amputating a limb to destroying a heart, which leads me to believe this was an intentional flub. The 'manslaughterer' is still the colony doctor to this day.

This will be the third or fourth time I will watch this. This man’s voice and cadence is so relaxing.

Rimworld is what brought me to your amazing channel and I’m glad to see you’re still having fun with it!

I really like how cinematic this episode felt.

That was the best one ever. A perfect subject for the patented Ambiguous Amphibian droll philosophizing. Seems like it distilled a lot of the goodness from the Kenshi series into a Rimworld gem.

The Torsolo experience was a fantastic playthrough and I'm happy to see another run for it, short as it may be. I'm sure he's off terrorizing some other colony somewhere, possibly having replaced his bits with archotech parts, trascending even bionic cyborgs.

I love your scripts…so well written and witty

I recently found your channel and I have thoroughly enjoyed every video then just like the others this one is an absolute amazing art piece thank you for existing

You are insane and brilliant, every time I see your Rimworld videos I just have to watch them. I am captivated by your wit and your incredible storytelling - not to mention your awesome grasp of the game! Thank you for this... great Monday evening viewing! 🐝

I found your channel like two days ago and I love you cadence, your jokes, and sudo intellectual philosophizing on video game events... It is very entertaining.

fun fact, a torsolo in Italian means the part of an apple you dont eat, therefore, useless junk.

“I hopped on my peg leg to extinguish the fire with my wooden hand.” Absolutely brilliant

the last minute was the most surprising top 10 anime betrayal of 2022 so far.

i've been following you for a year right now, and I LOVE your voice, even if I cannot understand everything you're doing ...I love your Rim World playlists! , been watching them 2 times over again...

alternate title: rimworld - the kenshi experience

Torsolo always manages to put a smile on my face

Glad to see more rimworld, not been subscribed long but so glad I found your channel, I've been systematically going through and watching all your content and you even convinced me to purchase rimworld for myself keep up the splendid work.

Torso?! Here we go again :D

Nice! I was needing SOMETHING... and what I needed? AA's calming voice and the Rimworld Torsolo experience.

I love your storytelling.

Always enjoy your Rimworld videos. You have a great voice for story-telling, and Rimworld is a story generator.

Torsolo lives on, not just on the desolate world of Kenshi, but now on the Rim, perhaps one day to amass an army of fellow Torsos to challenge the Empire for what he has a right to take. The eating without a table joke is still not dead, thank you

Why stop at one bionic colonist, when you can go bionic everything! Full cyborg colony!?

You should try out the Vanilla expanded Ancients mod next. You can get neat super powers

I watch AAs video simply to expand my own vernacular. His vocabulary is outstanding.

I need more Amphibian rimworld in my life

This reminds me of something that happened recently. A prisoner named Worm tried to escape and was severely injured. As punishment I decided to 'purify' him. By the end of my endeavour Worm had no eyes, ears, legs, arms, one kidney, one lung. He was perfect and it became so clear to me - The Worm Loves You. The Worm is Perfect. We must worship the worm. So for some time the colony existed solely to care for this lump of flesh called The Worm until he was finally allowed to rest.

I have to know if that ending was staged or not XD Regardless, a cinematic masterpiece as always, Mr. Amphibian!

Torsolo and Gerald Williams are some of my biggest inspirations If they can survive and thrive as the worst possible humans alive Then I too can become exodia

That was strangely beautiful and poetic. Thank you for delivering your story with such prose.

Ah, the humble Torsolo graced our screens with his wisdom and perseverance once again. Also, glad you had a nice holiday, AA!

Hey, I really enjoy your rimworld videos, but it always frustrates me that you never managed to build your own rocket and leave. I would personally love watching an extended series like the ORGANization again.

Wonderful video! It's been fun to see the evolution of these videos recently

I missed the rimworld playthroughs!! I'm glad more rimworld content came :)

you never fail to impress with new build challenges! thanks for giving us a philosophic view into the life of torso :D

Loved it. Nostalgic about the kenshi run because that's where I found your channel. Keep up the great content

After years of development, eating without a table is still the most dangerous thing you can endeavor

This might be the best Rimworld video i have ever seen. I would love for it to be longer. But that is just me, it is proberbly this good because it is short. I love to see you play Rimworld. I hope you find the desire to make more rimworld videos in the future. I would love multi-episode series. But I will take whatever you can give. But just so you know. I NEED MORE RIMWORLD!

Neverminding the fantastically ridiculous premises you start from and the fabulous narrations you compose, you are just so. god. damned. GOOD at this game. This playthrough was a downright masterclass in beautiful simplicity and ruthless efficiency. I adore you.

Man I loved the Torsolo Saga back in Kenshi so much. Glad you brought it back. Just started with Rimworld myself. Feels like Kenshi back in the day.

Your narration is beautifully poetic!

The great torsolo, more machine than man. He just about all his humanity, no longer needing to sleep, overcoming every obstacle from raider to hunting. He started with nothing and became a cold, heartless metallic core... only to face the true ultimate test of brain and brawn that only Randy could throw at him. He mustered up all of his confidence and strength to eat without a table, but the memories of when he had a table were just far too powerful for him to overcome. Torsolo, you will be missed.

AA your narrated plays are the best entertainment this side of lockdown

So, good news, anomaly lets your pawns crawl to safety. With that framework, im certain soneone can make a mod to alliw this challenge in full.

This title made me burst in laughter, since i watched a few videos of you allready and kinda know what kind of commentary i can expect. Looking forward to the next 14 minutes!

The guy becomes superhuman, kills everything, but his breaking point is eating without a table

I could "watch" these blind, the narration is the key of these videos. Bravo! 🎉

I watch your videos when I feel ill. Your voice is smooth and soothing to me, and your videos don't feature frantic editing or loud noises. So a few videos in my nausea subsides. Ty

"For the machine is immortal." And also, really good at making more machine.

This was such a good video, one of your best RimWorld challenges

great video, so glad Kotton gave that shout out hope to see more rim world.

IT IS FINALLY HERE. I THANK YOU FOR THIS BLESSING, PUZZLING POLLIWOG.

I love your videos dude. I've been binge watching them for a week or so now and your style is so fresh lol. Idk if you'll even read this but keep up the good work!

God tier narration I could listen to him talk about anything.

AA, I need these videos in a series form. I've been missing the old form content so much.

I finally beat rimworld! The ending was nice. I couldn't figure out for so long how to make the damn ship. I opened all my animal pens, and blasted off! I started wondering what it would be like to play with all the pawns on 1-priority, all of them, every task lol. Or lowest priority.

You truly are a scholar and a poet. The most noble amphibian I know. Thanks for another gem, and have a great day

oh no another torso experience xD its hilarious. Torsolo is so powerfull he even managed to switch dimensions from Kenshi to Rimworld. Nothing can stop this torso
