The epic story of Ben traumatizing his child for no reason at all continues. Father of the year.
29:33 The boss stopping to kick that one candlestick in particular was the funniest thing LOL
I know I can't believe they didn't say something that was fucking hilarious and random as hell
screw you tom and ben and this candelabrum as well
Extreme summary of the Elden Ring story for ben:
the elden ring was how god (probably an alien) was controlling everyone and also stopped people being dead ever, marika said "that's probably a bad thing" and broke it with a hammer. She has now been seen to the isocubes:tm: for her crimes, and all her kids stole the biggest nuggets of what as left
we need to gather them all together, turn death back on so we can kill god's pet dog (elden beast), then put it back together but better this time/set it on fire/something to do with the moon?/stop skeleton racism/give it a disease
also all the bits of circular masonry are from Faram Azula which is a place in the sky with way too many tornados to be OSHA-compliant
The curved ruins covering the land are chunks of Farum Azula. Pretty sure they got there when it first started crumbling
The Elden Ring is
runes. It's just runes.
Also, they did that in Dragon age origins i think it was where you gather the armies for the final fight but whatever army you chose you pissed another off and only certain ones would show up.
They also did that in dragon age inquisition where you had to pick between the mages and the templars but what Ben was describing would be more like if you got one particular companion it locked you out of getting a different one, but then for the final boss fight instead of only having your party of 4, every companion you got is participating. I think the closest to that dragon age has gotten iron bull’s personal quest line with the chargers
Oh gods, that WOULD be horrifying. Being shoved into one of the Great Jars in Elden Ring. Thanks for that nightmare fuel, Ben!
Wait I don't get it what's the deal with the jars
@@Zappygunshot They're full of dead bodies. They mention it in some of their dialogues, and post-Radahn you can even see Alexander collecting some new material after losing some of his in the fight.
@@liallen9380 Okay yeah that's pretty gross, but I wouldn't say being surrounded by dead bodies is particularly unusual for FromSoft games.
"It is a funny joke until they say 'well let's bang anyway'" LMAO ffs Ben
At the end of every episode we return to wizard school to see in what bizarre way our heroes will be bested until next week.
Two heads are better than one - true of Tom & Ben as well as the ones for thinkin' & dinkin'.
Ironic that the thinkin' one is the one with a child.
nice
@15:50 Yeah that is actually always a neat thing when a game has that.
Recent example being Baldurs Gate 3, where a lot of the miscellaneous NPCs you meet through the game can come to join and help you in the final battle. Unfortunately the battle is severely undertuned and even on tactician difficulty you don't really need them.
Dark souls 2 last DLC boss also has this mechanic.
If Ben Junior becomes a serial killer, this will be exhibit A
Man yeah, watching that fight with the misbegotten really reminds me that the tracking on enemy attacks (especially the mid-air ones) is one of my least favorite things about ER
Still better than the input reading of crucible knights
@@taylorbrecht8049What's that, you'd like to roll away from my near-impossible-to-dodge surprise ghost tail attack? How about some more tail?!
"Gather the friends to beat the BBEG" is the plot to so, so many things, usually paired with The Hero's Journey. The one that first came to mind for me was Breath of the Wild because while you /can/ fight Ganon on your own, the whole plot is gathering allies to help you beat him.
BotW was the first one I thought of as well, but I thought they'd actually do something a bit cooler than fire a laser, once
06:37 Ben just idly trying to hit Tom made me laugh
Yes baldurs gate 3 you can fight with Allie’s but the way you play does dignify if they join you or not
16:24 One of the Darks Souls 2 DLC has this! As you go through the Crown of the Ivory King DLC you can rescue loyal knights who help you in the final boss fight
Ben's and Tom's classic adventures!
Boy do I love this series!
Hearing about the souls/xp distribution to explain the game of thrones power levels is the greatest thing I didn't know that I needed in my life. Lmao.
Ben, early in the series: No one crafts anything, it's not useful (paraphrased).
Ben now: I'm rotting and have no easy way to handle it.
16:25 literally Baldur's Gate ending has the power of friendship ending you're talking about. Even the part where if you got one you're locked out of others helping you.
Turns out that Hare was the true Elden Lord with all those runes 😂
baulders gate 3 has a friends help in the final fight and some are defiantly better then others
they also kinda did it in botw
30:55 The way Ben goes "Um hmm." is just gold.
10:10 Trying to Moll Flanders your kid and then finding out his into that shit would be quite an experience
Dragon Age Origin did "We stand together" with all the bois you had helped. And if you failed or did bad choices. You might run out of allies to help you in the hour of need
These elden ring videos are definitely a highlight of my week get off from a week pf work to enjoy some silly Shenanigans
They actually do that Power of friendship final boss fight in Baulders Gate 3
16:22 Zelda Tears of The Kingdom had done that. Each of the 5 friends you make along the way takes on one of the 6 endgame bosses, then link always 1v1s ganondorf
Well, actually, the thing you mention at around 16:00 (the final boss helpers are friends made along the way) is greatly made reality in Domina, the indie game about gladiator school's mistress. The game itself is mighty hard and thus its very hard to reach nearby the end, not to mention end it (for your men are either dead or maxed out in skill and equipment and thus very valuable and selling them/letting them free - aka friends - is a suicide), but at the very end you get into a fight yourself, being weak beach without a weapon nor armor and then your friends join you and try to help you. I dont know what happens if you win because I never did, its a roguelike with that, you lose, you die, no save loaded, you start from start and try to make more friends this time, at the same time trying to survive as a school.
Collecting allies to fight final boss (although it's part of the story) makes me think of Little Big Planet 2, where your allies provide the means to fight it
In at least a few of the possible paths you could go down in ogre battle 64 had ending where all your friends and enemies would come help you in the final battles, which was very helpful since you were literally fighting a war against hell
I can think of two games off-hand that do the "all the friends you made along the way" ending for the final boss: Live a Live (or Live a Life? Not sure which it is) and Eternal Darkness. I'm sure there are others. I think Mists of Pandaria had some quests like that too, but that's not really something you can just play separately. I really do enjoy that trope, both in games and movies.
this series is such a delight, I get excited whenever I see it in my feed ^_^
LISA the Painful lets you fight your best bros in your party before the final “fight”
toy commander on the dreamcast you could change between toy vehicles. You fought the end boss as all the different bosses of the areas that you had defeated previously
I'm not sure what's worse; that Ben never finished the game and so doesn't know anything, or that Tom did finish the game, several times, and still doesn't know anything.
I feel like a "Is this the real you" question for Tom and Ben has to be something like "...who is our true lord and saviour?"
The medallion plan is pretty much making up an arg but instead of being fun for him you are trying to punk him. Without the punking part it would be a really cool thing to do as a long term gift.
Optional Power of friendship is a thing in a few games, off the top of my head Horizon zero dawn and Dragon age 2 do it. I like it since it is like a reward extra reward for doing side quests and reminds you of where you have been.
Also the scaling of souls is probably tied to what things are supposed to be rather than what they are, so if you fight a hare that is supposed to be a boss you will get a lot of souls but if you fight a boss that is supposed to be a hare you get barely any.
My favourite part of this is how often they say they have no HP and are getting oneshot, only to completely ignore vigor when levelling. High level play right here, living life on the edge.
bg3 does what ben was talking about with your allies in the final battle or dragon age origins also did it
This makes more sense than the original Elden Ring.
This is great fun to watch, keep the vis coming!
I love the anticipation whenever they enter a boss arena
clearly that's the best way for Ben's boy to get back at his father for the years of trauma, by the time he's getting married surely he'll have figured it all out and will "go along" with the long lost sister revelation... yeah, that's why... surely...
This is very fun to watch but for your own sanities you guys should probably go through more dungeons and get levels. Also more dungeons equals more silly and weird randomized bosses.
I just love this series, so good
Ben, sees man standing behind a goat: "Is that a centaur?"
Ben, I'm disappoint.
ole tom and ben are just the best
There is a good spot to grind for runes in the underground area you guys should go there and grind for levels. Also they're called runes not souls
People you helped turning up for the last fight is definitely a thing in a few games but most notably in Baldur’s Gate 3 it’s exactly how they described it lol.
I do find it funny they haven't done anything with great runes and their health pool is still pitiful so stuff just mercs them in 2-3 hits most of the time.
Also, 1000% confirmed at this point you bois got some jank options setup with how the randomizer is treating your souls.
Aquaria music at 11 minutes!
I would love a Tom and Ben BG3 playthrough. More Tom and Ben is never bad.
At the end of the series they should duel each other
Safe to say it's where you are that gives the runes not who you kill
As far as scaling goes I would say rewards are appropriately scaled to difficulty, but the randomizer clearly only randomizes enemies not soul rewards hence why the rabbit gave 70000 souls.
24:55 LMAOOO
I'm leaving a like and a comment for the algorithm and letting the video play to the end without watching because I desperately want this to be a full series but I'm also a lazy b*tch who hasn't finished Elden Ring yet and don't want to see spoilers.
Tom and Ben just discovered the ending of most JRPG’s
The whole medallion talk is just devil may cry 3 :D
Their misconceptions of what the Elden Ring actually is are endlessly hilarious. Nobody tell them what actually is, it's funnier this way.
Given Ben's powers of observation it is not shocking the conclusion he came to lol
Is it just me that refuses to fight on Torrent's back? I find it to be much harder to land meaningful attacks while riding. I do use a lot of magic, which is harder to aim on horseback
yeah the only weapons that really work are long polearms and bows with lock on, short melee weapons are hard to time and you only get one hit in before you have to try again but long weapons work if you keep circling the enemy
I was a Sorcerer and almost never fight on horseback, but when I do, it's all about Ancient Death Rancor because it's omnidirectional, the range, duration, & tracking on that spell is just ridiculous, and despite it being slow, the speed you gain on Torrent can help you kite them into it.
Lots of other spells only aim in a forward direction even when you're locked on, so even decently ranged things like Rock Sling can have super weird trajectories compared to using them while standing.
Horseback sorcery is very op so idk why you wouldn't use it? It trivializes every single combat that you can have torrent in
I mean tbf ben got some ill gotten gains a few episodes ago so losing his runes is karma lol
brilliant stuff
I do really like these videos with Ben!
16:25 baldurs gate 3 sort of has that thing ben described
dammit. have watched all the episode out so far over the past few days and now Im up to date and have to wait for more :\ worst feeling
I think the ruins are from crumbling faraam azula
Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1426
Oh you bet I'm still absolutely loving this :D
Ok, my god, the Wedding idea with the Medallion XD GENIOUS
"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them "? No, in this house we watch "Briefcase Monsters"
The fucking Springhare XD good to get back to the roots when it comes to bosses XD
Ok, god, the Fucking A-Posing Ghost Mimic, what a perfect way to end indeed. Not only that, but in addition with the build up XD Jesus, Amazing
Definitely in cahoots with the Birds
I feel like they're expecting a million runes from beating a "boss" that's replaced a normal enemy.
That's because sometimes the normal enemy that replaces a boss barely drops anything, so the rule for how the Runes are supposed to be allocated is VERY unclear.
I know very little about Elden Ring lore but I do know that no, it’s not a space station
Burgers are pretty nice
Ben just described the end of bg3 16:23
Undertake kind of does that Ben
i love this
Great video
In Balders Gate 3 people you help, help you during the final mission.
I love thissss
That's how Baldur's Gate 3's Finale works! All of the people you help along the way support you in different ways. Some give you buffs, some summon themselves, others have attacks or heals!
Hmm i wonder whos in charge of uploading mystery quest 😂😂😂 they always dropping at the same time, my boys got fingers in pies and other places
They're just set to release at a certain time just like the main Yogs channel videos, because that's where the peak viewer demographics between EU & NA regions make ideal upload times for their core audiences.
Not a final boss, but FF14 does have some cut scenes and dialogue that are different if you've done a ton of side quests for various allies. Its simple but well done. It is a fun system for games when its done right.
HELLO TOM
I feel like a lore-through would be more fun than a randomizer, that’s just me though! Idk what the randomizer adds when you don’t know the items anyway
It's more of a casual experience where you can kinda just mess about and not worry as much about comments backseating because no one knows quite what to expect. Also, since Tom's beaten the game before I think that's the novelty that's making it more fun to just bash about and have Ben along for the ride.
❤
cool
Baldur's Gate 3
This is another reason I got massively fed up with Elden Ring - the fucking tracking is so broken it's unreal. The way that dude jumps through the air and performs a 45-degree arc mid-hop is absolute bollocks. I also remember fighting Margit and he literally jumped into the air, I rolled under him and he hovered in the air for like five seconds, and then I watched him do a 180-degree turn and fucking jump on me.
At that point, everyone who constantly bangs on about how the Soulsborne Ring games are 'le epik skil tezt nut kazul' can fuck off over the side of a bridge.
Hate to say it but dont think soulsgames are for you then, theyre filled with this stuff, forcing you to be on guard instead of "oh i rolled x way now im safe" my only tip is dodge at the last moment dont ever think you are safe from a boss
@@cyriell I know how to beat it. I have. It's just lazy design.
hahaha i feel like they are getting worse at the game
