I liked the part where Eragon pulled out his Eragun and shot all the Eragoons until they were Eragone.

dude the guy who wrote Eragon was like 16-17 at the time and it must have been so dope to get published and have the book so well received at such a young age. then imagine being told you're getting a MOVIE adaptation AND a mf video game!!!! you'd be so stoked! only for them to turn out like uhhhhhhhhhhhhh like this

From what I recall in the books, using magic consumed the user's life-force. There were work-arounds, like storing energy in gems or draining it from animals, but those are more advanced skills. Eragon in the books passed out for days after shooting a fireball without knowing how to control it, so the amount of magic Eragon's using here should've killed him.

9:30 “It’s time for another lesson in magic. Use Magic!” Even if it’s just some audio clipping into other audio, I find it quite funny.

Back in high school there was a nerd fight in one of my classes and one of their closing lines was “shut up Troy, go back to reading eragon” A sentence I will never forget. Made me watch the movie

My favorite part of the book Brom putting Durza the shade in a chokehold and Eragon relentlessly stabbing him with his sword. Truly they captured that part beautifully!

I seriously want to know what the devs were thinking when they made the "kill 393 enemies" mission. My jaw dropped when I saw that kill count.

I love how they utterly eviscerate the key moments of the first book's story and also skip over all the cool dragon stuff at the beginning of the story, best adaptation EVER.

Fun fact, Eragon was the first movie I convinced my family to let me see on my own(The rest of my family went and saw a cartoon movie while I watched it), AND the only movie that made me so mad I nearly walked out.

I have very fond memories of this game.. like, its a really bad game don't get me wrong but my long distance girlfriend introduced me to the books, and when she visited got me the game as a gift, and we had a blast playing it in co-op. We've been married for a few years now :)

The DS version was pretty solid. The touch screen was how you cast your spells, which simplified controls. I remember that the game was surprisingly brutal for a DS game. There was a spell called bone break which breaks every bone in the enemies body. The melee attacks actually looked like they had weight to them. There was one where Eragon jumps in the air with his dagger and stabs the enemy in front of him with a downward thrust.

I had this on PS2 as a kid and I... LOVED IT haha. Especially having a friend come over and playing it in co-op, it was a blast!

Now we need Kevduit to play the King Arthur video game based off the 2004 movie with Clive Owen playing King Arthur.

One of the coolest things about the Eragon books were how they had an entire world map and even dictionary of the fictional language at the back of each one. It was so cool to keep flipping to the back and learn what phrases meant and how they were pronounced, like actual fun homework. The film was simply an overly produced atrocity in comparison.

Eragon was one of my first fantasy series. It still holds a special place of love in my heart. The movie holds a special hell apartment of hate in my head. Right next to the Artemis Fowl Movie.

I DID get this game instead of Oblivion or Twilight Princess, and my dad and I played the hell out of it. It's not good, but it does carry all kinds of nostalgic fondness for me.

So, this was literally the first videogame I ever played on my 360. It haunts my gamerscore to this day.

Kevduit is such a hero, playing games and torturing himself so we don't have to

I will never forget buying this from GameStop, beating it in 1 night, getting bored and then beating it on every difficulty until the next day when I returned it. Easiest game I’ve ever played

They should make a game where you play as a brand new dragon rider in Alagaesia, at a time set after the events of the books. You can choose between humans, elves, dwarves and urgals as your rider, and you can choose the color of your dragon as well. Alagaesia will be an open world game, and Surda would be the sandbox level. Eragon & Saphira would be featured as guides to basic training and teachers of new skills. Now the object of the game will be to stop an urgal uprising, lead by an urgal who believes adding their race to the Rider’s Order is a threat to their autonomy.

I read the books and absolutely loved them and I hate to see how they were adapted into the movie and now game, thanks for suffering through this so we don’t have too kevduit, I didn’t even know this game existed before this video

Galbatorix: I have the corrupted souls of dragons, control of the words that bind reality itself, and a dragon who's wings span the width of your pathetic cities. What do you have? Eragon, about to one-shot the boss after doing all the cooking side quests: BAZINGA

My memory of Eragon was around like 5th grade, I heard everyone talking about it like it was gonna be the next best series like Harry Potter or Shrek. Then the next year, it faded into obscurity and I never heard about it again.

11:15 made me laugh so hard to hear Brom say "Fire, fire, fire!" Followed by your "shake it off" 😂. That spammed crouch was the cherry on top

Funny part is the game was more accurate to the books than the movie XD

THIS WAS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE GAME AS A KID AND I FEEL LIKE NO ONE HAD EVER HEARD OF IT BESIDES ME

Eragon was the first series i got invested in. Every location the story came across i checked the map, and it felt like i was on a journey with the characters. It was the first time i saw magic with actual limitations and rules. I was like 11 or 12 and read these before i had ever read lord of the rings. I never knew there was a movie until about 6 years ago, and it hurt me. I just found out that there was a game, and now i just want to read the books again, because the writers clearly skimmed it

There is a very bad memory from my early teenage days. This movie was announced, which had an almost unparalelled advertising effort that worked wonders. And by that I mean adds on TV, re-editing of the first book, very well selected images for the trailer. I was absolutely hyped and bought the book (movie edition) straight away. I loved the book. And my opinion of it only increased the hype for the movie tenfold since it also included images from such movie as a reference. But then it finally came out on theaters, and... it was the worst disappointment I've ever had after buying a ticket. The movie was so bad... so underwhelming... Everything felt rushed, 4/5 of the characters didn't even appear, the environment, fortresses and cities had absolutely nothing to do with the book, there was no depth, the elves didn't look like elves, the dwarfs were just normal humans with armor, the urgals didn't have horns and weren't even particularly big. They were just some fucking normal dudes with pelt clothes and war paint all over!! The only good thing was the dragon, on which they seemed to spend 50% of the budget (and 40% for advertisement). So far, the worst adaptation I've ever watched. Not even Dragonball Evolution or Netflix's Resident Evil comes close.

Just shows how back then we were relying on our imagination to fill in the gaps. Probably why gaming as a kid seemed so much better than it was 😆 great video man keep it up.

This was actually my favorite game when I was a kid and actually got me into reading the absolutely amazing books

the live action hand inside of an animation cutscene is iconic.

watched 2 minutes and i can say considering the budget is probably nothing, the amount of love put in by the artists and animators is actually brilliant, i reckon, giving more time and money to this project and these artists would have resulted in literal gold, as opposed to the ironic gold im watching now 😂😩

Don’t you guys remember in the first book where eragon killed like 400 soldiers by hand?

This dude is funny as hell😂 randomly put this video in the background while working on my assignments and was laughing my ass off the whole time😂 that "dude is that autotune?!" Killed me😂

This game was my childhood. I was 8 when i first played it. Considering the fact that by that time the budget for the game was shit they made a really good job. Most of the money went into the soundtrack tho and this game music actually delivers. I consider this game soundtrack one of the best off all games that i have ever played.

Kev I’m glad you finally got around to playing it! I remember playing this as a kid on the ps2 after seeing the movie lMfao so much nostalgia

Eragon: “I have become more powerful than any Jedi!” Count Dooku: “Good, twice the pride, double the fall!”

I barely remember playing this game 15+ years ago. Feels more like a weird dream. Everything looks so familiar but unfamiliar at the same time.

I had this game on PS2. No clue why my brother bought it but suffice to say it was a killer co-op game, which were rare back in the day. We played the heck out of it - I still can’t get the word “Brisinger” out of my head because of that game.

I remember this one. I was a fan of the books and got to play the game the same day as i went to watch the movie. Had a friend of mine to experience both with me. Game we had fun time with and movie was so bad we had a blast. One of the most fun yet disappointing days of my teenage years.

i remember playing this as a kid, and now i like dragons because of it.

I played this game before it even came out on a demo disc that I used to get frequently in the mail as a kid. And I remember liking it. Every time I see one of the games from one of the demo discs I get a wave of nostalgia

all the cutscenes in this game are truly cinematic masterpieces

This game makes me feel like when I first watched the Percy Jackson movies (thank all the gods there's only 2 of those things): upset because of the wasted potential, confused because they throw random facts at you that the book contradicts and wondering if whoever made it even bothered to read a part of the books...

Apparently Netflix is making a series based on the books and are working with the author to make sure it's a faithful adaptation! I'm pretty pumped.

I remember playing the demo for this with my friends and we were all seriously disappointed, and we thought "Well at least the movie will be better." We were so very wrong.

Damn this is a blast from the past, I remember my little brother and I playing through this game dozens of times. The good old days lol

I actually loved Eragon the video game. Played it with my brother all the time, it was one of the only games we could agree on (he’d want to play smash bros melee, I wanted to play left 4 dead. We compromised, ERAGON) Edit: BTW this game has multiplayer whenever there are two characters.

"How could such a good book influence such a bad game and then movie?" Dude I asked myself the same thing. The Inheritance Cycle is a brilliant work of writing and it should be way more known than it is. Shit's brisingr.

The cutscenes in this game are amazing. My favourite one is where Sapphira gets stabbed, and then Eragon yells "Sapphira!" and looks really annoyed for a split second before the cutscene moves on.

God I love the books so much. Just finished the new one, Murtagh. DEFINITELY recommend it! It's setting up some BIG things to come in the world of Eragon. Thanks for making this video man!

I wish the Eragon books had got a fair chance man, they didn't deserve this😭

“Pain, stabbing” I felt that

That second to last mission that has you killing 400 guys seems like something out of Drakengard rather than Eragon. The dragon would just be asking Caim why a detour through a village of peasants is necessary, and the answer given would just be an excited smile. If Kev sees this and decides to play Drakengard, he won't need to worry about the music cutting out; the insanity inducing melodies will never stop (even if you want them to).

I'm gonna honest with you: This is one of the games I played A LOT in my childhood and I have a lot of purely nostalgic and "epic" feelings about it. Somehow I recently thought about games I havnt checked a long time. And found your video. I totally didnt have on my mind, how ridicioloss this game is. From my expected: "I remember how epic it was, but nothing else" I landed here and enjoyed a good comedy show! Thanks for the experience! :D

A true hero 🙏

This was one of my first games ever on the 360 and as a kid I loved it, you just unlocked a forgotten memory

Fun fact: the psp version of this game (because yeah, that exists) is just a dragon riding sim where the dragon has tank controls and the majority of your time is spent flying around 3 colour swapped but otherwise basically identical arenas. It also provides even LESS context, because it can only show the scenes where Eragon is riding Saphira. So this is the DEFINITIVE EDITION of the Eragon gaming experience. Let that sink in.

Had the game on ps2 as a kid. I remember liking it more than the movie, but that may be because it had more blood and violence. Had a friend I'd play it with and I would play as "the guy with the red sword". Had a lot of fun.

One of the games I remember most fondly lmao. But then again, it was the first and only game I ever convinced my girl friend to play with me and we were wheezing and laughing all throughout.

You know that feeling when u suddenly see a video/pic or hear the name of a MASTERPIECE of your infancy? And then you flashback to that blissful moments? Then existential dread reaches you when you realize your old? Yeah. I felt that🥲

I loved the books so much! Saphira was so sarcastic. And brom was probably my favorite mentor yet.

You unlocked a core memory from my childhood and I actually loved this game, reminded me of the return of the king game when i was a kid lol

This does revive some good memories though, it's nostalgic. I loved the books so I was consuming every Eragon media I could find, I actually liked and enjoyed this game for what it was.

Oh Kevduit I highly recommend the hobbit game made by the Sierra company. it was made back in 2003. I had a blast with that game when I was a kid. actually I still play it now and then. It has a decent mix of action and fun puzzles. Plus The voice acting is really good. 😎👍🏼

As a long term kevduit fan I can certainly say this video is a W everyone should watch your videos ngl

I remember playing this ages ago. Knowing nothing about the story just buying it because it had a dragon in it lol I forgot how weird and fever dream like the cut scenes were. But I remember the music being surprisingly pretty.

I actually played the heck outta this game as a kid. Good times

I remember going to a friends house for a sleep over as a kid and we spent most of our time beating the game. It’s been so damn long since I’ve seen anything about this game.

I loved how you directed your anger towards the characters and told them to stfu towards the end lmao

“Good job, remind me later to give you a Scooby snack” had me rollin😂😂

I think we were all wondering when Kevduit would inevitably cover this iconic game

The beowulf game is pretty brutal, and whilst not the best made I found it pretty fun. The carnal kills are awesome too. You should give that one a shot sometime.

19:08 caught me off guard while I was drinking, and I almost died. 🤣🤣

Laughed real hard dude lol. Earned a sub

TBH i loved both the books and the movie as a kid and was always sad we never got a sequel like the movie showed wed get, heck I even named my cat after the dragon Saphira with the same namesake lol

I enjoyed the part when Eragon says "Bazinga!".

Man that is nostalgic Remember trying to 100% this game and not doing it but the magic was pretty fun would play this and Kameo all the time

this unlocked childhood memories I didn't know I had

Can’t believe I actually played this as a kid. Thank you kev for suffering this infernal game. 😂

Damn I remember playing this game one summer with my brother as a child and it was awesome and the graphics looked great…oh how times have changed

Oh I remember this one! Was a lot of fun when I was a kid

I loved this game, used to play co-op with my cousin back on the day, so many good memories...

This game was actually fun as hell as a kid, loved Eragon

I love the part where eragon said "It's eragoning time"

You sir are a legend. I love your channel. Ngl when the 400 kill requirement happened, I checked the progress bar to see if you would actually do it. 👏👏👏

Interesting how this version of Safari has more book accurate wings then the one in the film.

Or everyone, list better dragon games to make Kev feel better after playing this. I'll start: Spyro Reignited Trilogy

Dude this game was awesome. I forgot it even existed!

Pure comedy gold man. Couldn't stop laughing!

Bro u brought me back to my childhood, when i used to play this coop with my brother! My god the memories; this game is fun and is dumb and i love it XD

Eragon was one of the rare movies that didn’t make me angry over the inconsistencies or the differences between book and movie. Then again, I wasn’t as critical as I am now; I was a teen and seeing the fantasy book made movie was the hype.

This game was so fucking fun to play on co-op mode Also I gotta say, those execution animations are awesome even if they don't make any sense.

One of the best KZfaq videos I’ve ever watched

Usually, I give a nice entertained chuckle when I watch something. But "Brum, I won't let you die." "You *will* let me die. 💀" had me actually laughing throwing my head back. So emotional. So sad. So actually hilarious.

The coolest part of the books in my opinion was the magic. When you spoke words the magic would do what you ask…but if you did it without concentration and context. The magic would drain your entire life force to fuel the spell. Eragon in the book used brisingr in the town and passed tf out. The developers you can tell didnt in ANY way learn the lore. Because magic is like 1/3 of the books lol.

Sad how Established Titles turned out to be a complete scam.

It took me this long to sub to you. I've watched your vids for months and didn't realize I wasn't subbed yet

“Remind me later to give you a Scooby Snack!” 😭🤣

I remember this game from when I was a kid I forgot how good it was
