Praise the professor whos a god lol

lucky

Your professor is cultured

@STRONG BIG It's not that he lacks the confidence to continue this series or that he doesn't know it was important, he just doesn't want to make this type of content anymore. It doesn't interest him. And there's nothing wrong with that. If it doesn't fulfill him and if his artistic expression doesn't bring him to make these types of videos, then he shouldn't make them.

@@ladisgust I see what you mean. Like why would I want to watch a video he half assed just to appease the masses? If there's no passion put in a creation it's no longer a work of art. Its a cash grab and it doesn't really appease anybody

When's he gonna talk about Sonic The Hordgehog? HAHA

ain't that the truth

Seriously. Me, and my friends were just reminiscing about we used to sweat our balls off, listening to this in middle of the summer while playing chess. Good ol' days. Arin is just too damn funny.

Yeah

Fucking please

Well I mean just from watching the video he listed: 1. Graphical improvement from NES Mega Man to the pixel art in Mega Man X 2. Very smart mechanical communication (in movement, attacking, enemies, platforming, optional collectibles, etc) 3. Intro Stage does a fantastic job in laying the structure for the entire game 4. Motivation (mainly mechanically, unless you *really* care about the narrative, all the power to you) very early on to progress and master the game 5. Great Level design in general And so on. I’m pretty sure he meant to only share about conveying to the player what the game is, it’s mechanics, and why you should keep playing, all while not forcing it. Plus, this was partially satirical, not entirely informative; he made a funny video that also talks about his favorite game. Rock hard dicks

@@aquano1972 but it is very informative, if you think about game design, he really understands the problems and the solutions that could have applied

@@Lijericosas El problema es que segun la filosofia del diseñador del juego al hacer el video estas jodiendo al que lo ve si no ha jugado al juego, por que estas haciendo SPOILER

4: zero

​@@vitopasco8266fuck yeah.

Where did he say this?

@@Jacquelinsane probably in one of his reaction videos to the grumps playing his Mario Maker World

I assume it’s cause he’s gotta do commentary with Dan while he’s playing, but yeah still pretty true

The best example to describe how Arin plays games is a puzzle game he did where you had to do the opposite of the rules. The rule said "be careful" inna room full of vases which obviously meant you needed to break the vases. Arin immediately broke them all and then went "I wonder what that rule meant." It's like his subconscious picks up on good game design even when he doesn't realize it.

thats really not obvious at all lmao. Its video gamer instinct to break all the vases and boxes in a game when you see them.

AaronArcLOL Its true

AaronArcLOL I would so take a class just to watch this video with other people!

AaronArcLOL our teacher just showed us this today, and everyone wanted to laugh so baf

AaronArcLOL youre kidding... god that sounds funny to experience... ud say fuck it and lmao

I think they call this edutainment

TheDoc Just watch Game Grumps

3-Swords Cosplay It’s not the same man...

holy shit already 4 years since the Legend of Zelda video ..well that kinda felt like a goodbye for sequelitis, specially for how busy he was at the time (starbomb in the making, the show and they started planning the shows and all). so yeah, there's a lot of other forms to enjoy Arin and co., sadly Sequelitis isn't one of them.

I guarantee there were a lot of days where you didn’t think about sequelities

This is so sad.

Could be worse, remember when they had star ratings?

@@Riboshom you say that like old youtube looked bad?

@@ronnieradon Nothing directly positive came from KZfaq getting bought by Google.

@@ronnieradon it did tho...like god, it was so rough

it was so perfect back then. not that many ads (if any), no clickbait, awesome videos.

congrats mate. Help people learn how to play your games by PLAYING your games with Conveyance.....thats a fitting name...

@@h2ojr1 Of course! Always the first thing I keep in mind when designing a "tutorial"

@@alexchacon778 I wonder if we as designers can go back to "dynamically designed non tutorial but learning based" levels. I'm a game designer in training as well. This video felt like homework and I've never been happier to think so

@@blackghostcat I hope so! There are some great examples of games that do this fairly recently (Breath of the Wild and Hollow Knight come to mind). But yeah, I come back to this video all the time, the principle it teaches is one of the most useful things I try to keep in mind as a designer. What projects are you working on?

@@alexchacon778 You should know however that if you actually ever meet someone in real-life like Arin, they're a lost cause.

Yes. First Egoraptor video I've seen, and it has aged really well.

Considering i saw it when it came out, its been a while

Cuz Egoraptor is fuckin artistic genius

Yeah

Avery Patrick make that 8

OOOOOOOHHHHHH SHIT!!! That was fucking savage dude 😂😂😂

But accurate

How many hours did he spend on the third easiest boss in Sonic & The Black Knight again? 'Cuz it filled more than an episode.

ouch

HE TOOK SOOO LONG TO BEAT FUCKIN GHOMESS. FREAKING GHOMESS

6 days later, I'm doing the same thing. I must have watched this video at least 5 times. Once every couple years. It never doesn't put me in a better mood

I just got an emulator device from a secret Santa party and Megaman X was the FIRST thing I played due to this video. Ego is spot on about how awesome Megaman X is

Yeah, same, but this does come with the issue of it making it that much more grating when the Gamegrumps incarnation of the dude intentionally acts like he's one of those people the obnoxious tutorials were made for instead of a normal person. It's like dude, please just stop. We know you're not really *that* dumb and the bit is just kinda obnoxious

I'm back to watch this once in awhile as well. I miss this series.

I havent even played any of the games in the sequalitis series but I loved egoraptor as a kid. Can't believe this video is that old 🥲

Yes, Alia is fucking annoying.

@Weston Thomas The video was him praising the games for not having "MEGA MAN MEGA MAN" moments. It is ironic because X5 starts a trend where all of the future games have those moments.

DO YOU SEE THE DOOR?!?!

Yeah, that's the origin of it, I'm pretty sure Alia only does that in the later X games

Megaman ZX Advent Starting levels on easy. I'm fine with the Biometal and psudeoroid explanations but not the basic tutorials.

THATS SO F***IN TRUE

well, swear is pretty immature then it's not wrong

@@cilonrs w.... What?

@@robletch123 HE SAID THAT SWEARING IS PRETTY IMMATURE, SO IT'S NOT WRONG

Well this comment aged poorly

The non gaming masses.....does not include a channel named GAME grumps.....they are bad...but they are part of the gaming masses....thats why

In the case of people like Arin or DSP? No. They are 100% correct.

@@LucaxCorp Not sure what you're saying but the original comment is talking about Arin's argument where he says modern game design treats people like can't recognize simple patterns and treats player's as stupid; but then shows he is stupid himself while playing games

First law of UX design: Never assume that users are idiots, but never forget that they are.

To be fair, Arin actually does quite well with games with less intrusive tutorials like Bloodborne or Dark Souls. He seems to really excel at games where the information is conveyed in ways that don't feel like tutorials.

You'd think, but it's really just a persona, which is the real reason why it's so grating. You think you're irritated because "he doesn't get it and should" but deep down, it's really because "you *know* he gets it and is feigning stupidity since he thinks that's what gets him views"

​@@InfernosReaper it absolutely doesn't. its not even that popular of a topic surrounding game grumps, people watch them because of the presence theyve built over the years in making lets plays. the real thing that probably attracts new audiences is all the fan animations honestly. I guess in that regard, arin and dan having bombastic reactions can feed into those being made, but they can already have plenty of that by just... reacting to the games they're playing. annoying people by being obtuse and ignoring telegraphing _every time he plays a game_ only sounds like a way to get people to click off if anything. At best it makes people like me want to talk about game grumps if only for a moment, but thats not how you retain viewers, and thats not how you inspire fan artists. the only conclusion that leads me to draw is either that arin is as dense as he acts on camera when playing games by himself, or he just doesn't care anymore.

@@dandyspacedandy I mean, here, we have clear proof that he's *not* that dense, unless some incident happened that caused him to have brain damage that no one on the channel ever mentioned. Otherwise, the only conclusion is that he started acting over the top for moments that could be memed and to try to bounce off his counterpart, but gradually flanderized that persona into the realm of overly obnoxious. What keeps people coming is the fact that he's not the only one on the channel and the Grumps doing videos on things people actually want to see. That aside, when was the last time they had something on the level of Racist Bassist or Sad Hoshi?

@@InfernosReaperThen the persona isn’t funny, it’s just annoying

@@InfernosReaperman arin makes me mad, bro made a whole video on why oot was worse than alttp… and then he played oot and we saw how bad he was

please say you know you know game grumps exists.

@@tedscott3635 Yes, I know Game Grumps exists. I said this. As in more Sequilitis.

Ted Scott not sure why you thought he didn’t know, the last video posted on Arin’s account was not made 9 years ago which should clearly show that he was talking about Sequilitis.

I tried this years ago... he refuses too make more ...😭

He got his feelings hurt after all the criticism

TheRealSh4d0wm4n It has been in mine for years

It's like a legend

Oh boy, it's a MegaMan!

CaptainKlotz your officially a legend in my book now

This game is like a legend. It’s pretty fuckin’ good.

Of course it is; did you not hear him state how rock hard the game makes him? He could sing the praises of MegaMan X until he's blue in the face, and still not lose that enthusiasm.

*YES!*

thanke!

Developers feel the need to include a tutorial because they think they might have added an element to their game that's alien to usual game mechanics. Having the option to skip tutorials would be nice to get right into the game, but wouldn't it be annoying to be hindered in a game because there was something you didn't know from the developer's tutorial?

Well yeah, for that, a tutorial would be pretty useful, but for people that have played the game and understand the mechanic, it could still be nice. Games that don't add any mechanics like that and _still_ give a dumb tutorial really don't have much of an excuse, though.

NEW IDEA FOR MY GAME

+Danny Vo were mean like ones that have "press a to jump" its like NO FUCKING SHIT. having a tutorial for new stuff is a good idea though

+Mitt Romney XIIV A lot of games do have a skip tutorial option

+Death Trooper poor troll effort. cant even spell mother right lol. better luck next time buddy

Hey now, honey...

*Mega Man Mega Man!*

this is one of those few select vids that ive watched more than one time. its a great vid

Quniverse i've been back a number of times. Such a great video.

He’s addressed it before that they take too much time to animate and write. At the time he was making them, he was rising in fame so he had a lot of other things to take care of and that’s why he stopped. Idk how busy he is now since I haven’t been keeping up with him, but it would be great if he starts making them again.

@@XerosigmaZ dam, such a missed opportunity, I would love one of these over a new game grumps

he's lazy that's why, he said it himself.

@@Gadget-Walkmen dam, such a good idea

@@cliftonsargent1572 IKR I love this series of game design videos and missed when arin used to animate. Still love coming back and rewatching them even now!

OMG YES I LOVE THIS VID!

Same, probably watched it ten times

Same, no school like old school 😎🙌

I watched this video like 10 years ago and then I forgot about it. Today I ran into a recent Egoraptor video because it was recommended and I thought "Egoraptor? Why does that sound familiar" so I started digging into his channel and BAM Sequelitis. It's like a dusty forgotten old chest in my mind opened suddenly I was rushed by memories.

OMFG IM JEALOUS TOO

This should be totally shown in every game design course. The whole series.

I can confirm this is shown in actual game design classes being a student of game design myself it was shown the first two days of class to show us a good example of someone thinking objectively

Wow. This is actually really fucking cool.

They showed a video in school of a dude talking about MMX and MM Classic while saying fuck a lot? I'm so jealous.

Your absolutely right. I saw this 10 years ago and I nvr forgot it. A pioneer in KZfaq knowledge, humor, editing and strait up fuckin comedy

And thus we see the beginning of everyone calling Megaman's bullets "lemons".

+Omega Flowey Agreed

what would you like to see?

pursuing222 _Maybe some sequalties on sonic_

I think he mentioned a possibility of a Zelda windwaker. I think he could do on on contra 3. Maybe something super Mario.

pursuing222 _Oh ok, I'd be happy to see it_

ok?

@@teknodice Now, why would u dothat

My dude, it's these videos that just seriously spoke to me. Taught me things normal game design courses rarely could. Plus, introduced me to more games than I probably would've known if I hadn't watched it!

Can u give me some experience ?an advice

So much

@@-Jamie-3410 yeah but iust starbomb and he will most likely go back to his dying let's play channel after the album ends

In the GameCube MegaMan collection, you had the option to turn on a tutorial pop-up that features Roll telling you this stuff. That's what he's referencing.

@@bdpickett Huh. I didn't know that was an option, but I can guess no one in the right mind would want to turn it on.

Ramon Sandoval He's working on the next one... takes time to get the animation done, and the gameplay footage I believe he does these by himself

I hope he makes another one, but I hope he doesn't do it just because people want him to. When you try to force "sequels" to content that you originally created out of your own passion and amusement, it never goes well. Just look at Hollywood.

Maybe we'll get more How About This Game to fill the void.

Brian Percival Have you seen extra credits? it's not as detailed, but it's the same idea.

damn I came here to say that

lol The beginning of MN9 falls directly into what this video says. It is so annoying. I dont need some hint system holding my hand.

Miguel Angel that was kinda the point.

yep

Well so can Maverick Hunter X being as it basically removes everything he praised about X. For example, you actually have to defeat Vile at the start and then he cheap-shots you in a cutscene, which means your quest is to become strong enough to defeat someone you could beat up already.

don't forget cute

my favorite part was how the game interrupts you a second time (in another level) to tell you about wall kicks uninstalled the game after that

It takes a lot longer than a week to make one of these.Game Grumps all they have to do is play games and make jokes. This takes a long time to animate, film, edit, research etc.

Replace the word "week" in my comment with whatever time period it takes. These videos rock.

Trevor J He makes more money, with less time and effort with Game Grumps was my point, so that's why he prefers to do that.

GreenleafFPS I wouldn't say he "prefers" any series. I'm sure he'd love to make more Sequelitis but with Grumps and Polaris time-consuming stuff like this takes longer as he had more on his plate.

TheWackyDiscord Well he obviously prefers to do game grumps over sequelitis based on the amount of releases.

Especially about Hammer Joes. Watch him and Dan play MM3 on Game Grumps. On Shadow Man's "revisited" stage Arin proceeds to get his skull caved in repeatedly by a Hammer Joe because the ceiling is too low to jump over the hammers and he never realizes the game wants him to slide under them while returning fire. He burns all his Magnet Missiles instead, and once those run out, he's back to eating hammers again haha

Current Arin is a terrible sequel, new entries should take inspiration from Past Arin.
