"This is my son, so this is kind awkward" killed me. The mental image of your friend acting all emotional at finding your child while you are standing awkwardly on the side just watching

"What's your sons name?" "Why would I know that" Best parent

Anyone else find it hilarious that Mark, Bob, and Wade (now mega-dad) wrote an auto biography on their survival experience? I can only imagine people reading "Then we built a giant cabin and gazebo, both of which were swiftly destroyed by incompetence, but that didn't discourage us. We just started on our next project: building the perfect bridge."

The saddest part of this game is the fact that they never rebuilt their cabin.

Bob: "Did you kill my son?" *Literally they spent months to build a base, break everything they've built, and they nearly forgot Bob had a son until now*

Little Timmy: *HAS SEIZURE* Wade: “He does this.”

It took me a minute to realize that the guy at the beginning taking Timmy wasn’t a cannibal, but perhaps Matthew cross or another survivor taking Timmy as a sample to save their child, causing a loop, leaving everyone the option to sacrifice their child to end it.

Imagine how terrifying this all must be from Meghan's perspective: You're just chilling in your room, playing with your lil airplane, when suddenly three burly men, all fully-armed and wearing armor made of human flesh, barge in and try to kidnap you to force you into a torture device. She was kinda right to attack them tbh

Other youtubers: *Cheats off-camera* Markiplier: *so press f1 to get ALL the items*

they go from “this is wrong, human experimentation isn’t right” to “MEGHAN WHERE ARE YOU WE MUST SACRIFICE FOR THE SPIKE MACHINE” in a milisecond

I love that Bob just nonchalantly goes to puke and comes back like nothing happened 😭😂

Can't stop laughing at the excitement in their voices when they said "Oh! We need another kid to put in there! MeGaN! Oooooh MEGAN!"

I love how Bob is technically the protagonist but Mark literally took the spotlight from him lmao.

Respect to Bob for being able to tell them “excuse me I gotta throw up, brb” and then just. Comes back and is like “yeah no I’m good let’s go”

"Mark, you got this?" Mark: **turns around, starts screaming, and runs away** 21:03

I actually really liked the ending, with grown-up, demonified twitching Timmy getting ready to slaughter and murderify a small town, following the teachings of his cannibal babysitters

i love how “wade is missing this one important item” turned into “let’s give ourselves every single item in the game and act like nothing happened”

Timmy: **writhing on the ground like his insides are turning against him** Wad: yeah he does this

Love how suddenly being back to civilization is in the end so shocking and comparable to how one might feel when suddenly dropped into the wilderness

I love Bob being frantic when they load in after enabling cheats. "ISSABONNUS! It's inside of us! Gotta go!!" Two sentences and a shocked scream, and STILL no context as to what's going on

*Mark and bob being disgusted over the eyeball armor" Wade: "Aw yeah, nice!"

I hope they all 3 come back to play the sons of the forest because this series was amazing

i love the fact that they used cheat codes and none of us really cared because it just makes it more fun to watch

Megan: describes that Mark, Bob and Wade were in a plane crash without talking. Mark: Why's she pointing at me?!?!

I hope they play the sequel " Sons of the Forest " once that comes out- I'd love to watch another unkown amount of episodes of these 3 goofballs playing a forest game

Seriously, the lore of this game went from questionable to "oh jesus" real quick. Like at first I was like "OH MY LORD HOW MUCH INBREEDING HAPPENED HERE??!?" And now I'm like "OH, THAT EXPLAINS QUITE A BIT ACTUALLY".

Markiplier the Forest: Part 1: No Forest For 3 Stupid Men, episodes 1 - 3 Part 2: Dawn of the Cannibal War, episodes 4 - 6 Part 3: The Greatest Engineer, episodes 7 - 9 Part 4: Conquering the Caves, episodes 10 - 12 Part 5: End of the Chaos, episodes 13 - 15 Great series. I was sad to not see a reference to the building disaster from episode 8

"No kids been lucky enough to have 3 dads before" *beginning of Mamma Mia plays in the background

"This is really unrelated, but I think I'm gonna puke."

28:51 Wade casually saying and a kid to spare😂

"Why ya runnin'? Ya scared?" - The man wearing armour made of living flesh, armed with a pistol, a chainsaw, a club made of skulls and god only knows what else

Timmy: "Where have you been, dad? What took you guys so long?" Father: "Sorry, son. Me and my boys were deforesting, building a base, gazebo, bridges, etc." 😂

In loving memory of "Previously on The Forest."

wade’s disbelieving ‘what have we done’ as they walk onto the stage is sending me

13:17: “so I did some off screen mining….”

I love how this game has such an underrated story. It’s a cycle. We found Timmy in the spiky box after we were shot down so that means the person we see at the beginning was a previous survivor who had to save their kid.

Jesus it took him over 5 years but he finally got to the actual ending guys, our boys have done it I'm so proud

As soon as they got all the items, I love how everyone equipped armor 🤣

apparently the sequel is being released today?? which just so happens to be the day i finish rewatching this series? LMAO hoping these three get around to playing the sequel sometime. this has to be one of my favourite series on mark's channel

Mark: “I didn’t expect human experimentation to be the cause of all this” Me: how often do you see giant mutated monstrosities naturally on a random island?!

Mark in pacify: we are not BURNING THE GIRL Mark in the Forest: I'm going to shove her into an Iron Maiden, and im not going to feel bad about it

the fact that i just binged this series 2 weeks before the sequel gets released 😂i hope mark plays forest 2 that would be amazing

17:45 Love how no one ever talk about how Mark fakes the plug in part and just finally chilling

"One of them is in first class, that one deserves it" I can't with that comment. It was so funny the way he said it. I love Bob's sense of humor

I wish mark, Bob and wade would play games like this together more often

This series was actually so enjoyable to watch, I loved every second of it!

give hella props to my bobby boy for not only keeping up the banter BEFORE and AFTER the nightmare that hit him. and yet he STILL had multiple sentences before leaving. i love it when these dorks play these games, it reminds me of waaaayyyyy back

Mark: advertising distractible Bob: probably dying Wade: existing

Really can’t get over these series with all three of them causing chaos but strategically

After rewatching the whole playthrough,I really hope the three of them play the sequel game. Maybe Bob could finally get his cabin in the sky and Mark could get his dream bridge.

All jokes aside, the ending where you find your child is actually quite powerful....I mean, it’s not by all means perfect, but I believe it does compel something. Maybe it’s because I have a thing for silent protagonists and well, great story build up, but man.....I wish the forest would get an update and not be well.......forgotten.....it’s such an amazing experience.

Bob choosing to save his son and break the tie was such a “I’m not doing this cause I like you or anything” kinda moment He loves his fictional son

“I’m gonna go shove this cursed child into a big Iron Maiden, and I’m not going to feel bad about it in any way shape or form.”

Howcome nobody ever figures out how to build the turtle-shell, winged-luge track? It’s an actual thing but you have to find an underwater cave out near the boat to get the plans. I must see it someday. . .

The sequel is out, the happy birthdays can continue!

Mark, in case you, Bob, and/or Wade read this, there are actually two endings. You got the ending that ends the game. There’s also another ending, caused by refusing to shoot down the plane and subsequently shutting down the system for good, which turns the Forest into an endless survival game and permanently locks you out of the canon ending. However, that ending not only allows you to play on without terminating your save file, but also introduces a new secret boss that would be hilarious to see you guys fight.

it is so funny how they skipped so many caves that are important for the story line, did not check their health, cheated everything and unconsciously went to the end to safe timmy lmao

"Oh we need another kid" Mark: "MEGAN👹👹"

21:12 “Mark,you got this?” Mark: screams and runs😂😂

Wait....the guy who kidnapped Timmy was all red and now mark wade and bob covered themselves in red “paint” and hunt down another airplane.....it’s literally a loop

I wish they had found out that the entire ending was showing a cycle of planes getting shot down by the previous parent of the child taken to save their child. And that their kid was taken to save Megan and they saw how Megan ended.

the idea that mark bob and wade are like...... three friends who decided to collectively raise one of their kids together is so hilarious to me for no good reason XD maybe the visual of three grown men each holding a picture of the exact same kid and crying is really funny to me but anyways! i really enjoyed this series!! it was fucking amazing!!! I really liked the story and I _especially_ love the epilogue with grown up Timmy. I don't know why but the idea that only the father (or, well, fathers, in this case) of the child can console the...... thing inside the kid is really interesting to me. I wonder how Timmy fared after his fathers' deaths, or at least after leaving them. Did he have to learn how to control it? Is the thing inside the kid sentient and alive, too (i.e., think of when it needed the father's presence near it all the time like a newborn baby constantly needing a parent's attention. So, as time goes on and it grows older, it needs less and less parental presence until it's mature enough to no longer require it)? The fact that it still has "baby mannerisms" while Timmy is a kid implies it grows slower than humans, though that may just be because it was implanted in toddler Timmy and as such is "born" later than him. I do wonder how Megan fared so long without completely succumbing to the being, though...... Also, I wonder what the whole "live sample" deal is about? Like, what _exactly_ does it do and how does it work? What does it do with the live sample? Does the sample have any impact on what the resulting creature will be like (i.e., will it absorb the sample's personality? Their mannerisms? Stuff like that)? And the technology! Is it alien technology? Or is Sahara Corp. (I think that was the name) just really advanced? God, so many questions, but so little answers...... My guess so far is that the creature inside Timmy works like a symbiote of some sorts. Think Venom and Eddy. When Timmy gets all jittery and bubbly is when the creature wants to come out, but unlike Venom and Eddy, if it _does_ come out, dude's gonna die. Timmy obviously struggles with this, so as we see in the epilogues, he's searching for other Sahara research sites to find out what exactly happened to him and probably try to remove or kill the creature inside him. So there's that. I'm just really interested in the overall world lore and would _love_ to see more. I heard they're working on a sequel, so I really hope the whole "Timmy goes out to acquire answers and seek solutions" is going to be the focus of it. Though admittedly it would be pretty hilarious (and poetic, I suppose) if The Forest 2 and so on are just the exact same game, just with different parents and child each time.

And now once sons of the forest releases,I’m hoping mark bob and wade play it

They go from having a 0% chance of killing the boss to "I have 10,001 ammo."

Mark, the only youtuber who's willing to cheat on camera for the funnies

I think he needs to return to the forest. It reshaped him, rebirthed him. It’s like he’s the son, the Son of the Forest.

30:51 that was a emp

Is anybody else concerned that the strongest armor in the game is literally severed body parts

Bob, Mark and Wade’s son’s PISSED. Instead of rescuing him they: built long walls and bridges, explored caves while dying and dikking around, fought enemies and took a month break while their son slowly died.

As an avid fan of The Forest, it's genuinely so interesting to see people new to the game figure out the plot. It's so much more than it seems when you start the game!

30:23 We have became one !!!!!ULTRA DAAAD!!!!!!

I find it sweet that they checked in on Bob afterwards and asked if he wanted to stop, that's caring right there

mark: pulls dead son out of a death trap of spikes. Bob: "oooo pointy"

imagine being named megan and watching this and just hearing “meeeaaagggaaaann” “megan you little shit!” “let’s shove megan in there!” I would be prettified.

22:13 BOB'S LAUGHTER AT WADE ALMOST GETTING HEAD BOMBED THEN TURNING INTO DISGUST AT MEGAN HAS ME IN TEARS 😭😭

Mark-"i mean, It would be morally reprehensible.... but...." CLICK!

When Wade said “he does this” at the end, I nearly died laughing.

It’s strange to think that I was watching this as it came out, and it’s now been a year

The Sons of the Forest is finally here!!! I hope you guys play it Super excited!!!!

I made the horrible, horrible mistake of eating during this episode…

It's always sad to see a series end with markiplier, but all good things must come to an end.

35:38 What do you mean they didn’t do anything?!?! Bob broke the Gazebo and Mark made many bridges! That’s…….something.

When they approached the boss room completely clueless I about exploded

Hallway: **has a bunch of dead bodies and blood** Mark: “ThAt’S kInDa iCkY”

Props to Bob leaving to throw up and then coming back and getting right into it 👏💪

We need to see these guys play through the sequel "Sons of The Forest" once it releases.

At like, 17:42 the captions mistook Wade's laugh/coughing for music. Now I can't unsee Mark unlovingly laying down a dead child to like, dubstep or something.

Mark: "I never thought that we would beat The Forest, we did it guys" Me: * *thinks about 'Son Of The Forrest (the sequal to this game that's coming out soon-ish)* * ... _well, about that..._

Anyone else think Wade's laughter was the dude crying over his dead son at first?

its kinda sad to see thins 15 part series end

There's literally a torch taped to the flintlock pistol and they're using a lighter to light the way

I love how in the end they all just fuse into one mega-dad

"And Megan too, with a kid to spare!" The math checks out

man this series was better then anything I seen on netflix 🙏 we need the 3 boys to do more story games like these it was awesome 👌

I'm always surprised when these type of games has an actual ending, but what threw me off was the voice acting in the ending

I can only imagine if they had not used that cheat they would have literally died

[SPOILER ALERT] I find it hilarious how Mark and Bob are shocked at finding Timmy impaled on the spikes and meanwhile Wade's giggling nonstop in the background. Edit: alright dang y'all I added a spoiler alert. Happy?

Genuinely hope they all play Sons of the Forest.

This series helped me through a tough time. Thank you Mark, Bob and Wade for making this. I loved this series so much ❤

I’m actually SO SAD that this series is over. It was so damn funny I don’t want it to end 😣
