Trust me Frapollo. You’re the Ymfah of Fear and Hunger. No one is stupid enough to assume they’re as skilled or dedicated as you, nor do we ever attempt what you attempt.

the most painful part of this challenge must've been watching big bang theory

Bloodlust: ... You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me.

The Dungeon of Fear and Hunger its became Frapollo's vacation home

This one's sanity has already crumbled.

Now the only thing left is the demon baby only run as said in the character tierlist video

Fear & Hunger, the game where being violated is a necessary tactic in order to beat an endgame boss (in a challenge run)

Man's putting himself through more torment than Chambera, LeGarde and Raggie all to give us that sweet sweet content. Respect to you, sir.

I like save scumming because I don't have the luxury of free time to spend restarting from scratch after every mistake and learning from it

"i made an accidental baby" my father: i relate my friend, i relate. anyway great video, your patience and implication into the game is incredible, i discovered fear and hunger less than a week before and now i completely love this game, thank you for making me love this masterpiece

at least the very last thing i see before returning to the dungeons of school and learning, is a frapollo video. 🙏

Ah yes, the Eminen "you only get one shot" challenge, my favorite!

Im Pro-Save scumming in cases where random RNG-chances screw over players in ways that don't make sense, feel very frustrating or don't add anything to the game. Wether or not these factors pop up in an intensity where save scumming feels like the only way forward or the outcome more rewarding than the action themselves depends heavily on the game. In Fear and Hunger the RNG mechanics are baked into the foundation of the game, its meant to feel frustrating, dark and ressource scarce and they show up a lot everywhere. Its the type of game that you only play if you're already okay with heavy RNG (for another example: all Rogue-likes with random dungeon generation) and it is implemented throughout the entire playthrough- from combat, to exploration and even saving- in a deliberate well-thought out way that highlights what makes the game feel distinct on every play-through (encouraged with multiple endings) and doesn't take incredibly long to complete. That was an example for where I feel RNG is implemented well (design wise). Where RNG is implemented badly is everything from Bugs or Glitches giving Bosses/Enemies unfair advantages that are not meant to happen resulting in being much harder to beat than intended, RNG-based chances to succeed on skill checks in games that shouldnt have them (doesnt add to the game and is very uncommon in the genre) where they were just thrown in for the sake of having them, rather than actually working on *why* they are there and what it does to the moment to moment gameplay (Rng skill check to engage with (talk) to an unimportant NPC in a farming game), very frustrating to obtain objects or complete missions that go far beyond what is reasonable to expect anyone to do (think obtaining the Zodiac Bow in FF12 with absurdly low chances of spawning (1 out of several ten thousand) and a long, tedious process required to even check if its there)(or having a 20 hour on average required to catch a rare fish in a 5 hour fishing game), and my favourite: where it doesnt make sense to require RNG at all. Where by all rules established by the game you should be able to do something as a free action or succeed everytime (and it wouldnt be overpowered) and yet you may still fail "just because". Imagine if you needed to roll and additional RNG check when picking up items (not IF they are there) but IF you are able to stick out your arm and grab that item, without any reason why you wouldnt be able to (no traps that trigger if you fail, no monsters catching up to you so you dont have time for a second attempt, no impairment on your arm like poison that would make you let go of an item due to arm cramping, rtc...) In essence: If a game ceases to be fun to play due to bad or too much RNG its always better to save scum. We're not getting those 200 hours to start the game anew back and not doing it just for the bragging rights to say you didnt save scum while you were having a miserable time playing for 150 of those hours isnt worth it in my opinion.

33:50 I like save scumming because, if i'm playing an RPG i like to think that i'm a wizard who can control the time and break the fourth wall and remember the consequences of all actions are. This way you can also see what the other options will show you (if the game has a quicksave system).

one punch man, it's not a superpower he's forced to kill everyone with only one punch or he dies.

This video really must have been hell to record. We really need to appreciate Frapollo's patience and determination, because I really think that even I would go crazy if I had to watch Big Bang Theory

Frapollo enters the dungeon Everything kills itself when they see him coming Frapollo cannot finish the challenge

Dude really put energy into saying "Fear and Hunger" in the beginning

IM THE BIGGEST BIRD 🗣 🔥

save scumming in funger for me felt like an intended game mechanic i guess? the game treats you very harshly and can even get you pretty much softlocked depending on what happens in battles so it never felt like cheating or anything when i reloaded a save a couple times to get an item as youd have to do that anyway if you lost a limb or a party member for example and couldnt progress further. cool video! enjoyed watching it

I have an irrational (emphasis on irrational I really don't understand why) distaste for PNGtubers, but I find myself enjoying your character. Maybe because it's tied to the world of the content you create, I don't really know. Great video!

When it comes to save scumming I usually only do it in games where losing a battle, usually just leads to you losing the game. For instance in the new X-Coms losing a veteran soldier late game is devastating and losing a whole squad pretty much means that you have to start over. And while I like X-Com I don't like it so much that I would want to replay the whole campaign because 98% hit chance isn't good enough for my soldiers

The Sylvian fight hits too close to home for me, I remember losing my mind trying for hours to beat Edith on Blacksouls 2 on difficulty 9 with 0 fog/progress(No levelling up or buying souls), mindnumbingly spamming the fight over and over in hopes that RNGesus would smile on me and grant me that slight chance of victory the worst part was finding the setup that would actually work if given enough rng honestly.

''Then get the blood portal from the Hexen... FINALLY'' I love how, frap, even if he is on a situation that he can just beat the challenge, he WILL kill himself 1982867386 times because he wants blood portal.

As someone with anxiety(Cant play funger obv) the knowledge that I cant mess up that bad since I have a save I can fall back on at anytime gives me a sense of comfort

You are crazy man, thats one hell of an challenge that i didnt believe it was remotely possible, worse part is, I didnt even subscribed to this channel until this very moment, you are truly a champ

For me with save scumming, I dont play games like Funger myself bc i know id be savescumming a LOT and missing a lot of the intended experience lol. But for other games I savescum because I have some very irrational fears about failure lmao. I'm better about it irl nowadays but am still working up my exposure in casual stuff. Trying DnD and Baldurs Gate 3 has helped a bit bc of the chance and dice mechanics, so I'm making progress at least XD Also man the offhand mention of Big Bang Theory got the theme song stuck in my head again (ToT) but that aside, great video! the dedication you have to these Funger challenges is amazing. Theyve convinced me to try getting Termina once my current semester at uni wraps up - Funger1 is good, I just think Termina seems more my style. But after that I hope to work my way to Funger 1 and kinda prove to myself I can do it lol

Le'Garde: I must endure all the torment of the world Ragnvaldr: I literally suffer every day because of you Chambara: Bro, I'm like, THE suffering guy Frapollo: Amateurs... ALL OF YOU. AMATEURS!

for fear and hunger in specific? I normally save scum either when i wanna show something to friends or when i wanna try a specific idea for a run. I stream this game to friends when i play it and sometimes i just really wanna show them a broken item or skill is, the 2nd case is "wow, i never tried a cursed blue sin before, i wanna see how that goes" and then i go and do it. the secret 3rd case is when i lose a leg but for F&H1, i consider losing a leg to be a softer kind of game over. For other games it just varies, i savescummed my Shadow/Clean Hands run of Dishonored (don't be detected/Don't fatally incapacitate anyone) a lot cus i'm not that good at the game, but it was still fun. i could basically approach the game as something like a puzzle, learn the patterns of enemies, or try super risky moves that really just feel awesome when you FINALLY get them right. and for more story driven games, i mostly do it to see different outcomes of the story. last but not least, sometimes, i just want to feel like a god when i play games.

I do save scum for cases like min maxing or to watch the other options after going through the ones i hadn't chosen. It's less about integrity and more about testing something stupid and risky to look at if it actually works or something you wouldn't have seen unless you played the game again, but the main reason for many is that it defuses the tension and for some people gives them the feeling that they can relax.

The best thing I could think of in favor of save-scumming, which I sincerely doubt would make you rethink your understandable disdain, is if you're trying to achieve something specific in a game. As in; Someone has a particular ending or scenario they want to achieve, but then either chance or choice ruins it and they'd rather just rewind the clock briefly instead of going back either to the start or to a further point in the past. Sure it makes the ending/scene/victory/whatever cheaper in that it wouldn't have been so without the powers of savescumming, but some people don't care enough to let that bother them. Fantastic video, love your content.

At this point, Frapollo doesn’t even need to hit the enemies any more. The second they hear that intro music start playing, they know they’ve already lost.

I'm the biggest bird

Keep up the great work mate! Love from Greece!

I love the way you say fear and hunger every video before the intro of the characters lol, brings a smile to ky face everytime bc i know i get to be entertained by the best fear and hunger player ever

"If I didn't have Big Bang Theory to keep me company, I probably would have gone insane at this point" My dude, you watched BBT. You did go insane. Also, mad respect.

RE: Savescumming, it comes down to the time you expect it'll take vs. the rewards you'll get and the length of the "sequence" you need to keep redoing until everything lines up. A game like XCOM or Super Robot Wars where you can freely save and might just need to correct a misclick? Not too rough. LISA the Pointless's vanilla version where you can hit level 6 and trivialize the combat on Garbage Island if you're just a bit lucky with your damage rolls? Might take an attempt or two but it's fine. But super longform RNG attempts like what you discussed? Yeahno count me out on that.

I got into Fear and Hunger a week ago and been sharing it's greatness with everyone i can. Love your content man.

To answer your save scumming question, i typically dont save scum on a first playthrough, but on subsequent playthroughs it can save alot of time. Depending on the game of course, and what im doing. Sometimes challenge runs, sometimes jut looking for new dialog choices etc. I also occasionally just enjoy seeing what a perfect playthrough can look like.

watching this silly man torture himself with a videogame while getting ready in the morning, my favorite routine

20:23 this made me laugh so hard

"stay with Uncle Pocketcat for a bit" 😭😭💀

That's some really crazy strategies you're pulling off there. I would have gone for a MLP or Bojack series binge over Big Bang Theory, something where I can actually cherish the more memorable moments of a series, but you do you. Savescumming, oh well. Most RPGs I just play once in my life (or one ending each), and I wouldn't consider it a savescum when I don't know what comes next and just want to explore different options in a dialogue tree. I never played Fear and Hunger, as interesting as the world seems to be, it looks like a very unenjoyable experience to just play "for the story". But in RTS I savescum like crazy and I think it's absolutely fair to riff on that. Lately I have been getting into WH40K again and it takes me 2-3 attempts to clear off a battle because the enemy tends to tech very fast and sometimes you play 1v2 against enemies with a partially prebuilt base. But there I save once a mission when I feel I pulled off a good enough start to hold up against it to slowly push back. In other cases, the AI just blatently cheats. I think it is "fair" to savescum when the AI reacts to units before it sees them. Some hard missions in C&C 3 require you to jump around the map a lot, get just enough units at the right places to not outright die, and make sure there are no rock-paper-scissor situations because the enemy will use flying units if you don't have defense against it, it will counter your tanks if you don't have other units around to counter the counter, and it will adapt to what you did in the first 3 seconds of the savefile including your unit movement in fog of war and building counters to your units while they are still in production. Maybe it's just in my head but I tend to get some butterfly effect situations in this game: Enemy compositions seem to change just by moving units slightly earlier or later, or to a slightly different position, or taking slightly different amounts of damage before healing up. So I, not being extremely good at micromanaging 3 spots at once, need to prod and see how to stay in acceptable conditions for continuing, create breathing space to reduce the necessary centers of attention, and I also just like to take over the entire base of Sarajevo rather than destroying anything in it (or having anything get destroyed in it). It's not a hard game but it does feel frustrating to not know what happens next because it depends on minute changes of what you did.

Bro traumatized the butterfly man just so the pinecon pig can fetch him items

Fear & Hunger: The World Machine Edition.

I don't really save scum for games like Fear and Hunger but I do for games like Disco Elysium when it'smore about interactions, but most of the community does that. The main thing I use it for is examining the deadbody. you are given multiple chances to examine the deadbody (for context it's rotting and the roll is to not throw up when you get near it). You're intended to not be likely to succeeding the first roll. There is something you can do to easily get a chance for a second roll but a third roll requires a thought cabinet which I find mechanically annoying so I save scum to get the second roll. If you fail after the thought cabinet I think there might be hidden actions that could let you reroll later but for the most pwrt you have to wait to upgrade your endurance, and depending om your build you might be able to upgrade it once. Problem is as a cop there to investigate a murder, investigating the body is an incredibly important part of the game

You took us on a dang journey, brother. Well done! Your Funger ideas and skills never cease to amaze me 🖤

Hunter-S: Love the video ,these are some of the most entertaining things to watch. To answer why I would save scum is mainly if i'm going for something i particular. First playthroughs is almost always as legit as possible. But if i'm going through again and I'm wanting a certain fight to go a certain way so I can get something, or a option during a cutsceene that locks me into a certain ending i'd like to do.

You and all bone jones are the best fear and hunger youtubers you should collab

I dont understand how people get satisfstion from suffering by these challenges

The savescumming itself towards the challenge is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Frapollo94 happy.

great video frap! reminds me alot of dark souls one-shot only runs (just watched the end, its inspired by those i see.)

You truly have the Tormented Soul

I'm pro-save scumming, but I've noticed it's directly proportional to certain other factors, like how fast can I get back into [whatever I'm stuck on], and if I just got a bit unlucky or otherwise have options to prepare more (and then probably, hopefully, save again, which, if I remember correctly, isn't viable in Fear and Hunger? Which is fair enough, considering what the game's trying to achieve) But there have definitely been times where I've decided to just restart a whole file anyway, either because I accidentally fucked myself early on and didn't realize it, or because I've the Vibes Are Ruined and I need a clean slate. Depends on my mood. Like...if I just die to an unlucky strike, restarting from the beginning isn't going to teach me anything or make me somehow luckier. I'd rather just try again. If I'm just a little underpowered or maybe need another item and can get those, I'd rather do that then start over again. And sometimes it's nice to be able to feel something out and figure out what the problem is if I'm unsure and doing so is possible. Though my antics do have a limit; ie. if the rng just isn't working out for me, like...five times in a row, that's too many times, clearly it wasn't meant to be-- I have time to do a new run and ~experience things differently~, not the time to try and game the rng for three hours. (...I say like I can and have played Fear and Hunger. Unfortunately, I cannot. :( ) Hope that all makes sense--

What a banger! Thank you for helping me pass the time in my shift!

Wow i usually don't comment on videos but this was something that truly deserved it, i feel pure admiration and respect on you and your dedication to fear and hunger because this was something that i had seen before in dark souls but over there they use even bugs to make it, but in your case this was yeah you use books and scrolls but it was still all legal to the point of waisting even days to try to do the one shot and it was wonderful how you do the lucky shoot needed it, truly and amazing video and i will even download just in case for my very own memories. Thank you for such video frapollo i will cherish it until the end

When I did no death or full combo walkthrough videos in Hotline Miami 2 custom leves/campaigns I got the same problem - level music stuck in my head. Good that modding communty have a good taste in music. Congratulations! That was epic!

I love your videos, I put them on sometimes to fall asleep to. It's given me a few nightmares but it's worth it uwu

Great video as usual. Oh and it would be really cool to see you try to play Felvidek, it's a relatively new game in the Fear and Hunger style that you might enjoy!

good job!! this is the first F&H challenge run ive come across, i think im gonna try this!!

Many fall in the face of chaos but not this one, not today

3:00 I feel like the one shot should count per enemy, not per battle, you one shot the one priest, you could have also one shot the other priest, I would've considered that a second entity, but frapollo makes it unnecessarily challenging which is why I love him so much! Keep it up frapollo, your torture is my entertainment ❤

I love that drawn together reference at the beginning. This is going to be a quality video

Imagine getting in a state of insanity, to the point of literally almost losing the will to live, then to be left behind, then to recuperate from say stage....just to then be left behind again.....

Thank you Frap 2024 has been rough with me romance wise but your videos and stream always cheer me up. I hope you make it big in the future

I have debated doing these challenges after I finally do things like get Enki and Ragnavlder's S endings on my own, but OH... This one? No. I am content to just watch. Your bravery and perseverance is astounding.

You are so cool , idk but your videos are filled with charisma, dedication,creativity and excitement, and really comfy/fun to watch, thank you so much :D

While I recognize the reasons against save scumming entirely, here are some reasons I tend to in games. This is just in general as I have not played F&H but I figure you went through the suffering to give us this wonderful video, so this is the least I can do. RNG as a mechanic for punishments is not something I particularly enjoy. When it comes to random chance I feel there's some level of understanding in using it for rewards because if you don't get the best reward, well you just didn't get lucky enough and usually there are other ways to mitigate that with game knowledge in a way that feels rewarding; though for punishments it's simply not what I'm looking for in a game. I get that there's always going to be random chance that screws you over with miss chance, random damage, whatever- but when there are punishments as severe as losing a leg or arm as per in F&H (idk the exact consequence but leg is substantially worse based on implications I get from the video) I feel like that crosses the line into unfun for what I look for as enjoyment in single-player games enough that I value my enjoyment over the intended flow of the game. I'm not a person that save scums often but generally my reasoning aligns with the above when it happens. When I see something randomly determined I deem as unfair that ruins my enjoyment in replacement of the intended flow of the game, I will go out of my way to resolve it- but sometimes you don't know something is random chance until you do it so oftentimes I don't even get the chance.

Every time I see a video of yours on my recommended list, and every time I’m like “surely he can’t do more for the funger series, what is there left to do??” And then every time I’m surprised to see that you’ve done another video on funger, you madman lol. Reminds me of the video of the guy saying “THAT’S WHY HE’S THE GOAT! THE GOAT!!”

I love this guys accent. I subbed like 10 seconds into the video. Keep up your enthusiasm, brother!

I love these challenges that one can attempt in the game. Keeps it fresh

So personally save scumming is situational, save scum for random item fine in my books, save scum to beat an enemy by lucky chance instead of prep bad for your fun later because stakes are gone and progression is way harder

as a french person your video is really cool and really clear for non english people keep your joy its really cool (sorry my english is really bad)

Since you asked about save scumming, it really depends, but I mostly used it on repeat playthroughs to get through content I already experienced to get to try out new stuff faster. Best example, Fallout 4. You can convince certain NPCs to give you more money when they give you quests with progressively harder speech checks that are rng, but you also gain XP from succeding. So if I want to powerlevel for quicker acces to lategame perks and get a large amount of money for maybe an expensive piece of unique gear, I'd happily spend 1 or 2 minutes reloading a save.

I like save scumming because the noise the skyrim horse makes when you jump off a cliff is hilarious as is the subsequent ragdoll

U are insane man, amazing video and congrats.

That is insane in his pure form Impressive game knowledge (and passion too ofc :3)

Honestly, I saw this video in my recommended a few times this week, and I'm glad that I'm the biggest bird.

Now do Termina

I accidentally stumbled upon the bookshelf reroll thing in the end of one of my last playthroughs since I got so lucky on my coinflips before it. I got like 4 empty scrolls in one bookshelf at and used them all on torches because I was on terror and starvation, and I already got every skill and item I needed. Probably my second favorite clip I’ve gotten from these games

What a good run frapollo, thanks for the video!

i am new to fear and hunger but i am so glad i found ur channel i love challenge content for games so this is perfect for me

When I play a game I do it in sections. Depending on the game I make them up arbitrarily. I will often save scum to test out different scenarios. I like to test things out, to see if I understand how a games mechanics really work. What does Luck mean? What does evasion actually do? Maybe I want to test a particular attribute does, so I’ll dump ALL of my points into it & then run around seeing if I like how that plays. I try to play each game like its own experiment/puzzle. But the game itself is the puzzle, the mechanics are the things I have to work with, & I want to complete it in a way that feels good to me. I don’t necessarily care how the game developer intended for the game to be played, I really just want to enjoy myself.

I saw the title and clicked immediately because I played through fear and hunger for the first time recently and it’s the most brutal game I’ve ever played. Love it and hate it so much. Termina is a lot of fun so far but I’m dying even more and the intro takes forever. For you to do runs like these is insane and I subbed immediately. Side note: your accent is cool! Where are you from?

They say life is pain...but they're wrong. This...THIS is what pain truly means! I will never attempt this, nor did I think it possible. You dedication is both inspiring and worrying.

The accidental baby had me snort lmao

Save scumming allows me to test different things that would usually end up hindering my run in a very major way or straight up end it. You can see different dialogue results, different endings etc. Save scumming in RPG games actually allows me to learn the game in much more depth on my first run Also sometimes I just like to toy with RNG, consider it a soft-gambling. You don't really pay anything (except for your time) and might get something rare as a reward. I also like to save scum in games that I play super-casually and just want for the story to go my way sometimes. And I never save scum when I'm in the mood for an actual challenge so I can put up my knowledge, game sense and skill to the test. To me it's just a tool you can use for faster IRL experience gain

personally i enjoy save scumming in a lore sense. more specifically in skyrim and elder scrolls in general there are lore hints around about the world you can find that point towards saving and loading being actually a form of magic that is cannon in game and so... i play my character as if they know this and boom im a lord of time that can just cast "fuck you i win" and i find that fact alone endlessly entertaining. This conversely applies to other games too even if they dont have a potential in lore reason for it being possible

Can't remember the last time I've caught your video this early, this is gonna be fun.

Best Fear and Hunger youtuber!!! I couldn’t have gotten through the game without your tips and advice

I felt my own sanity draining just by hearing you, you are an amazing content creator.

Now I'm waiting for the 10 hour big bang theory retrospective

I saved scummed near the start and end of my play through of Disco Elysium since a lot of the skill checks that you have to get through without knowing the alternative routes were too high for me to level past them over and over again to see if I can roll high enough.

"Griffith" instant banger the moment that joke was made. 😂❤
