GAMERANX: Souls games don't straight tell you to give up SOULS GAMES: "Put these foolish ambitions to rest"

Everyone was a noob once

Getting berated by morty is hilarious lmao

Metal gear the phantom pain goves you the option of putting a very embarrassing-looking chicken hat if you die too many times, and it makes your enemies look straight to the ground without shooting you A whole another level of embarrassment 😂

Bro that sneaky O.J. joke on the Ace Attourney segment took me out 😂😂

Spider-Man was no joke back in the day, those Pizza delivery missions in the 2nd one were so stressful 😂

The Messenger has a lot of amazing "this is indeed a quest of importance, but also a video game" diologue. I love it

I only got into games a year or two ago (very much an adult) when I bought my Switch. I was and am awful at them. That is why I appreciate the easy games so much- I think people sometimes forget about people who haven't been gaming their whole lives, and that at the end of the day games are supposed to be fun

Armored Core 1 is one of the few Fromsoft games with a noob mode. If you failed a certain number of times, you become augmented into _Human+_ mode.

In chrono trigger, I lost to Gato because i kept going back to farm points and forgot to heal up one time. So yes, a noob move.

I’ve been a noob for 30 years.

While technically it's not the game hating on noobs, Shao Khan in one of the Mortal Kombat 3 games could be a proper savage ("it's official, YOU SUCK!")

Dang 2 videos in under 3 hours. It's a feast from Gameranx.

I knew The Messenger would show up 😂. Dudes a savage. Also, phenomenal game. Soundtrack alone deserves a play-through.

I had a friend play Skyrim for the first time and he was so bad that Hadvar died during the escape from the burning village…

I never felt personally attack by Bruce. It was in fact absolutely hilarious listening to him when I was a kid. Guys' a leg-end. And totally completed spider-man.

The narrator was one of the best things about the old Spider-Man games 😂 Insomniac should have incorporated that into theirs

That OJ reference was hilarious 😂

I was like "Ninja Gaiden Black better be in there somewhere." First game I thought of when I saw the title. Made me wait til the end - great way to keep me watching.

All I'm saying is I know it's an MMORPG but: Guild Wars 2, Living World Season 4, Palawa Joko. You have to make your way through a series of traps before the big fight and if you die too often Joko says, "Are you going to set off EVERY trap? Oh, I see! You're a completionist! Do continue." Nearly died during that fight as I was laughing too much. Praise Joko!

Grew up with Spider-Man 2 on PS2, and these tutorial messages were great because of the jabs they throw at ya! My favorite being "Some people will look at the controller and go "THERE's ONLY ONE ATTACK BUTTON!". Will you give me a break. All because there's one button that says "attack, doesn't mean it's the only one. It's called a manual." I love this & I wish more games had this style of tutorial!

Apex legends hates new players

Second video today? Let's go! ❤️

You forgot about Naughty Dog's original "Jak and Daxter," ergo, when Daxter insults Jak (you) after dying.

Appreciate the whole gameranx crew for the consistent uploads and especially the days with multiple uploads. Much love for you guys❤️

Omfg bruce Campbell was the narrator in that Spiderman game how did i never realize this

Bruce Campbell's Spider-Man got me to watch. Was not disappointed

“Souls games don’t straight up tell you to give up, they don’t demoralize players right out of the gate.” They absolutely do lmfao the first NPC you meet after the tutorial in Dark Souls does pretty much exactly that🤣

There does need to be a "I've played a game before" button in the options these days lol

I've lost to Gato before. I was trying to see how many times in a row I could beat him without healing in between so it was only a matter of time before it happened since he is going to hit you, at least a little bit each time.

There are only 4 kind of people who gets the ace attorney tutorial wrong. People who don't read, people who mashed buttons, people who simply wanted to see what happens and, like franziska would say, "Foolish fools who spouting foolish foolishness"

I had no idea that Ninja Gaiden had an easier difficulty. I played the original way back in 2004 and it was either get really good or quit.

Im convinced Falcon only added the lawsuit game SPECIFICALLY for an OJ joke…& I’m here for it😂😂😂

Falcon makes the best lists

Dude, Quarble is hilarious in The Messenger. His banter is unparalleled.

2002 Spiderman deserves a remaster. I remember the vulture lair and fighting shocker in subways. Plus the green goblin battle at the end where you can ride the glider. Such a good game. And you can play as green goblin after u beat it. And the cool arcade modes. Such a classic!!

Ninja gaiden will beat you up while insulting your family. Miss the series

I guess that I like the trash talk, because 3 of my favorites are on this list. Stix, Messenger and Black (that's what our friends called it when we were all hooked) Black was tough!! We did the community thing when playing and swapped every level. Its been many years, but I remember them yelling, "Robbie, we need you." 😂❤

Pro tip the glove didn't fit because it was leather and coated in blood

At one point I got so annoyed by the controls in skyward sword I got some spirit levels and discovered that what the game considered to be holding the wiimote vertically (required for charging the sword attack or something similarly important) was actually skewed. The fancier wiimote plus actually made the game worse

Skyward Sword is fun but dang ghirahim was brutal during his fights

Wanted: Dead asks you if you want to switch the difficulty to "Neko - Chan" (NOOB MODE) which translates to "Cat" (if you die too many times). If you do change it to Neko - Chan the game FORCES you to wear CAT EARS throughout the remainder of the game.

Dmc 3: easy mode is now available

Eagerly waiting for Gaming News tomorrow!

[6:57] I love that Gato celebrates victory over you with a Karaoke burn! 🤣😂🤣

See, back in the day we had Game Genies and Game Sharks if a game was to hard. Then they had to up security due to multiplayer and you could no longer use gameshark type devices which directly edit the memory (which could open up to muliplayer cheating), so game devs started to include easier modes on single player games. Games of today are, in general, much easier than games of the 80s/90s.

Oh no, whenever I failed in Ace Attorney since the insults are aimed towards Phoenix they never affected me but I'm now realizing all this time they were talking about me...

Bungie literally removing the “role” from its role-playing game bc people don’t want to have to think that far ahead.

Loved that Spider-Man game! I remember playing it at like 7-8 years old when it first came out. One of the more memorable video games of my youth!

Instantly recognized Justin Roland's voice in High on Life 😂

"This spot marks our grave... But you may rest here too, if you like."

i'll never forget this... in Deadpool when you are at the difficulty choosing a new game the easier you make it for yourself the more of a bb you look like in the selection and the more difficult is the more bloodier 😂😂😂

From the Depths, without any intentional punishments is so hard for newbies they usually can't proceed without the help of more experienced players. That makes a community. :)

Love jake and falcon ❤️❤️ best channel

Long shot, but does anyone remember when Josh & Anthony of Let's Game it Out did a playthru of The Messenger? The voices that Anthony did for all the characters was absolutely hysterical.. I've never laugh/cried so hard in my life!

I love the Styx games. They're a blast. One of my favorite stealth games.

You have people that have nothing to do than playing games and other people that have a job, a family, a life and play when they have a little bit of time left over too play a game. Greetings from the Netherlands and respect everybody.

The one for Ninja Gaiden was only added in NG Black, Falcon. The OG version made in Japan didn’t have this option. Least I think it didn’t. When they made Black for everyone to experience they incorporated it into the game. This game was the hardest around at the time and yes people were complaining how hard it was big time. This was way before souls and the internet was so combative about souls. Me and my friend just got gud as you would say on normal. Eventually beating all difficulties to Master Ninja mode and beat all arcade fights on Master Ninja too. Still to this day one of my all time favorite games

Mr. Falcon. Did you ever consider becoming a VA for a game? I mean if they let birds or bald ones into their offices ofc. You surely got the range

Wolfenstein's easiest difficulty is named "Can I play, Daddy?", its description is "for the spineless gamer" and the character is dressed as a baby.

Double upload today lets go!

Sekiro: "Oh no baby. You keep dying... Here, let me help you by making the game harder for you ❣"

I wish Bruce Campbell narrated every video game ever

that's why I always start on hard and hardest on second play. The thing that clicked for me was "Can I play daddy?" difficulty, since then it's always hard lol

I love when games talk shit. Makes me want to beat it even more!!!

Splosion man was amazing, I need to play it again, I always loved when he did the airplane, such an amazing silly game.

6:53, that a jam right there !

Falcon with the OJ Simpson court case joke. 😂

The Simpson's Game that mocks video games in a... video game. When you die, Nelson insults you with "HA-HA Your gaming skills are weak.". After all these years, I still jab my hunny with the insult 🤣❤️❤

I lost to the guy in chronotrigger because I got bored and walked away

The Styx game was fun as hell for a cheap stealth game. Fun to play with someone else too

I loved Braid when it came out... the time dynamics were so cool and original 😎 game was also beautiful sound and visual 😍

The OJ reference out of nowhere during the Ace Attorney part nearly killed me LMAO

Last years I decided that my first " Souls game" would be Sekiro, heard its pretty cool and liked the setting. After a few days of getting into the combat I got the hang of it. But after a week I had to put the game down as every encounter and wayfinding to the next spot absolutely required googling everything ripping me out of the game everytime. Sould games dont tell you to give up, but they let you die slowly...

Guild of dungeonering, a bard sings about your failures when you die

We all were bad at games at one point

What about jak and daxter? The reactions of Daxter to the deaths of jak were just hilarious and priceless

Happy to see Chrono getting some love its one of the best games i have ever played

Had a PS2 game that had a Co-op mode that we could use GameShark on. When you completed the game the narrator who wore a Bane style mask came and berated you at the end. He said something like his grandmother could finish the game that way. It shocked my bud and I and was so hilarious.

8:40 my man did NOT just meme on OJ’s grave 🤣

Getting insulted by Morty…the game I didn’t knew I needed 😂

Deadpool straight up insults you when you don't push the DAMN BUTTON

Absolutely love the Kratos quote in the thumbnail!!

"Any self respecting noob is just gonna wanna use a guide even more now. Like, that's how noobs work." Basically 99% of the mmo players, since guides are considered mandatory in those games.

OJ Simpson joke with the slight chuckle was perfect 😂

One game that doesn’t mock the player but instead mocks the characters is disgaea Now while the player is saved from noobish ridicule, the characters you start with are not In the first world you will acquire two new characters; red magnus and seraphina who are both overlords, they also demonstrate just how clueless they are of battle with not knowing how geo blocks work, among other things It isn’t a jab at the player for being a noob, but it’s sort of pokes fun at your character’s for being noobish

I think it was 1992-93, I was playing a baseball game on the SNES, and when I got 3 strike, the player turned to the camera and yelled "Oh COME ON!!!" and broke the bat. I never forgot that as a kid that a video game character got mad at me for sucking LOL. Pretty sure it was "Ken Griffey Jr Major League Baseball"

It's an oldie but a goodie, The Lost Vikings would give you ever increasingly embarrassing messages the more you failed the same level.

I suck at combat because I have the reflexes of an inebriated sloth and a tendency to panic, but I love adventure games, particularly if they have a good story and exploration.. My strategies are to overlevel as much as possible, and to play on an easier setting (eg between 'normal' and 'too easy)'. Have lots of fun and don't care if I'm a noob. I don't attempt really hard games like the souls like though - that's a recipe for tears.

Injury to insult, Ninja Dog was not much easier than Normal. you just got ribbons earlier than bracelets and a few potions more. ah, the good old days ❤

I like picking wrong choice in Ace Attorney games for the funny reaction 😂

Ive really gotta play those Ninja Gaiden games, idk why i havent

Splosion man is also a really fun multiplayer platformer game

Surprised the chicken hat from MGV was on here. That makes the game stupid easy

i remember playing the OG Metal Gear Solid and losing on purpose to Ocelot so I could get the stealth suit in NG+ and people said that was cheating/easy mode but it was way more fun to use than the bandana.

Thanks for the video. I remember an annoying FMV racer taunted me in an old Need For Speed title. I don't recall when those popped up during the game, but he was a jerk.

spiderman 2002 was so amazing i loved him narrating it i had so much fun playing this game i wish it got remastered

I remember the first "who wants to be a millionaire" game, If you just sat there and not give a name or number of players, Regis Philbin would get pissed off and yell and just quit the game.

i use wikis to make fun or meme builds, like in gw2 i have a megumin build on my engi. megumin build being "EXPLOOOSION!"

Amazing video gameranx of video games that makes fun of being a noob in there games,fantastic job.
