Oh dear Neptune

Shiver me timbers!

Shut the front door!

U tryna fight

he's gonna be gone for like 6 months and drop a video of Fear and Hunger on his main channel somehow tie it back to his regression manhwa addiction in the end with something clever like "it's essentially a made your own adventure but for regression"

Aren't books on the bookshelf also randomized? It's crazy that Garnt pulled it at the right moment when he has a scalpel

ikrr That's so much fun

Thats how i felt about playing shadow of the colossus when it came out. All the bosses are basically platforming puzzles, but child me didnt have internet access so i had to figure that shit out through trial and error.

Literally the demons's souls and dark souls experience. Then everything fell apart when datamining came out, I remember people hitting every wall in the game with the talisman that does nothing equipped to see if it did something. Now elden ring is all about "hardcore" gaming, with bosses that do 80% of your health with every hit, and spend half the fight in the air doing triple backflips that you can't interrupt or attack them during it. I remember when people did entire guides in how to skip Flamelurker, those were the days.

also, some enemies have food, weapons and armor when you loot them

Not to forget about their souls, whether it's for the immediate benefit or ability to improve yourself.

The Pinecone Pig also benefits doing combats. You can get some super useful items from it

@@mathieulavictoire5218 Ehh technically? If it's not Termina, then you can get its benefits from attacking a door and keep doing it for as long as you want for unlimited supplies.

you also get rewards from killing certain things later in the game

Black Souls community is spitting at the direction of the Funger community with how mainstream it’s getting. The gatekeeping is strong in that one.

With how much marketing Frapollo made to this game I am surprised he is not the dev. Dude even patch the game…

Gatekeeping is so pointless and harmful to whatever piece of media people are gatekeeping.

Bro is the "Fear" in Fear and Hunger

I legit did the same thing my first couple of tries. Had no idea about hexen and so on, I don't think I got any endings but I made it super far. Got down into the gauntlet once as Cahara and died to the two headed mauler. First run I did where I found the hexen and realized what it was I beat it in 6 hours getting Caraha A ending.

it's great. personally i prefer the second game. a lot more story and characters in that one.

you can always watch Connor's playthroughs

Funger 1 and 2 are on sale right now. If you want to get into the series then the best time is now.

@@theretherebearbears7631 i checked and it said it wasn't, maybe I will check again, thanks for the info

@@41tinman41 true, I might do that. I might also just play it myself lol

First time i played the game i refunded that shit, because of that part. The game just made me feel physically sick, seeing all the gore, dicks and macabre atmosphere. But then picked it back up after hearing about the second game coming out and i love it. XD

she cannot in fact use the skeletal arm as a weapon, not for the girl nor anyone else. Frapollo already mentioned this in a video of his.

@@MapleNaros Then how the hell can I use it with her? Is it because I use steam version, by any chance? Or was it changed in some patch since I last played?

​@@MapleNarosthats the skeletal leg youre talking about

I mean he only coached connor through ragnevalders S ending. Im sure they could arrange that.

If Frapollo is in Japan then that's in the itinerary

They aren't talking of the defense stat itself, but buffs towards it, like the defense stance, which decreases PHYSICAL damage and increases evasion, however RPGMaker has 3 types of attacks, "Certain Hits", Physical and Magic. Of the 300+ attacks in the game, less than 50 are actually classified as physical attacks in the code and the remaining 260 attacks are "Certain Hits" which aren't affected by evasion.

Would you also include Disco Elysium in that category?

@@Dracobyte idk havent playd it, you can judge that beter then me.

@@DracobyteDisco Elysium isn’t really punishing, hell there are skill checks in Disco Elysium where you get a better result from failing the skill check.

Pathologic 2 is a masterpiece, I unironically reccommend beating it at least once

My directionally challenged ass needs a map at the very least.

Don’t games like The Last of Us have avid fans too though?

That's the thing with gacha mechanics though: it is usually only fun when you know it's going to happen, and it doesn't determine every single step of progress. When it comes down to pure luck if you are allowed to make it to the next area of the game..... It definitely loses its appeal. I think the save mechanics really saved this series, frankly; I recall many soured experiences over most of the beginning stages, back when this game wasn't fully completed. Honestly, people warm up more to the game as a whole once they encounter the save mechanic, albeit only slightly for some lol. It's also a pretty good compromise between the brutality the game is going for by keeping it limited, while giving something for the player to at least build off of.

That’d be nice but frapollo would just make the game so easy by just watching him because hes mastered the game.

There is only one instance of the game "telling" you how to use empty scrolls and it requires you to remember a seemingly meaningless flavor text you get from interacting with a miscellaneous object. Miro really did a good job of making his game as unplayable as possible while still being a game and I fucking love it! It's usually in the room where you meet Enki (the black priest playable character) if you play as other characters. But here's the kicker of this "tutorial" moment - it's literally just a bookstand that says: "O LORD" "TEACH" "HURTING" You either need a massive brain or a huge leap in logic to figure out how to use empty scrolls

@@waltervoidbringer4491 there is even more hidden way the game tell you, if you wear the priest robe (rng drop) and talk to other priest, they will tell you how to use the empty scroll

because that the ''realism'' of the game, you enter a dungeon alone, there is no one there to tell shit, you have to learn everything, remember everything you read and learn

​@waltervoidbringer4491 Actually, if you wear a priest's armor, which can change your visual appearance, you can talk to the dark priests instead of fighting them, and one of them will outright explain how empty scrolls work by advising you to ask Jesus for cheese. I think there's another book stand too, but it's basically in the endgame, so eh.

well they all mentioned they think its nothing like other jrpgs so he likes something about this game specifically

@@nimbusstudios1717 an exception

bruh its way more punishing than dark souls. Atleast in dark souls you have guaranteed saves at bonfires. In fear and hunger even saves depend on luck most of the time

It's on steam I think

@@Sgr667 I know but I only have a ps5 bruh

@@fed8369 if you have a laptop even if it's a potato it can run it

it's just that unfortunately f&h will never be available anywhere besides pc because of the adult content

The other 2 dude only play it with time limit, its their challenge, connor had all days , so its pretty self explanatory why only connor beat it

The time limit is non existent when you do know how to play though​@@parfaitcell3067

Because in the episode there was a sponsor splitting the two fear & hunger segments, I think, but idefk ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

mannn, that sucks I'd easily give up my taste for an entire genre just to have that emotional valence for overcoming difficulty

@@romannewhearth9907 yeah, I can’t do it. It just stops being fun after a certain point.

Fair enough, the game isn't gonna be for everyone, and thats ok; at the very least, hope you can enjoy watching others play the game, like conners playthrough

I’d rather people be like you and know something is not for you and be fine with it. Than the people that tried to get the game changed or even taken down because they couldn’t play it.

if your ever interested in knowing more about it but as u mentioned it wont play it connors playthrough is really fun to watch
