#eragon #gaming #kevduit
I liked the part where Eragon pulled out his Eragun and shot all the Eragoons until they were Eragone.
This needs more likes.
I liked it when Eragon said "It's Eragoing time" and Erawent all over the bad guys
shut
🤣
Best part fr
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
Well it's basically og star wars if you think about it...
Eragon is luke
Dragon raiders are jedi
King is the emperor
Durza and then spoiler are darth vader
brom is obi-wan
Vardens are rebels
The crippled elf is Yoda
I'm your brother is I'm your father
Etcetera...
@@18Rada89 tbf, all hero’s journey stories are pretty similar
@@18Rada89 yeah! George Lucas has said he based the original movie on the classic Hero's Journey (I believe he read about it in a Joseph Campbell book) and more than likely Paolini was influenced by both Campbell AND star wars (source: I was also homeschooled in the 90's trust me bro i know what we're like lmaoooo)
@@Serrifin no. The movie is scene for scene A New Hope.
@@paulperez6167 xD
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.
Yeah comparing the feats in the game to those in the books is an exercise in hilarity. While watching the video I repeatedly wondered to myself if the player character has time traveled back from one of the sequels (the later books have some serious power creep)
to be fair, i believe in book one (i can't quite recall, but it's when they cross the desert) he tried creating water and almost got himself killed, but was able to sever his connection to the spell, now i'm not calling that anything less than plot armor, but it could be a possible explanation?
@@davispeterson1876 power creep didn't stand out to me that much, i remember the progression feeling somewhat natural.
@@Ancientsecrets0304 I more meant if you compared the stuff they were doing at the beginning of the first book to the stuff they were pulling at the end of the series it would be pretty drastic.
Power creep can absolutely be gradual (hell it's in the name), and even solidly justified in-universe.
@@davispeterson1876he learned better ways to control his magic. At the start, he was always channeling himself. Oromis taught him how to better use magic using shortcuts- like instead of using magic to chuck a boulder at someone to kill them, he taught Eragon how to quickly and easily stop a heart which would require way less energy. Oromis also taught him how to use the life force of those around him, rather than himself. There's also the gift from the elvish ceremony that sped up his Dragonrider evolution and brought out his half elf features, which gave him a lot more strength to use physically and mentally for magic. Imo between eldest and brisingr, paolini did a decent job with that progression considering his age and style
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.
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
I hope Troy is doing well today😊
Oh, oh no...
The movie is an awful adaptation of the books.
Oh no. I hope you weren't too traumatized after watching that dumpster fire XD
@@the_last_ballad still a good movie
Troy is a dope name
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.
Not to mention the movie was made without the authors consent or approval. I was going to watch it until I learned that as a kid lol

@@ivarisalie8759 Yes i am pretty sure. I may be wrong but thats what i heard XD They were sued and the studio declared bankruptcy and shut down

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.
"Oh look a bug, they stop spawning after 393 instead of getting to 400 like we wanted."
"We're not getting paid enough for this, just set it for 393 kills and call it a day."
I'm more shocked that it got a teen rating back then
It's not so hard. That mission is pretty easy.
Wasn't there a bit of a Kingdom Hearts game like that? Just an entire field of enemies
@@JohnUnsubYeah, 1000 heartless in KH2.

"Welcome students. I will now explain the trick to doing math to you: Just do maths. Ok see you tomorrow where I will teach you quantum physics"
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!
Somewhere around when he was running around suplexing kull and near singlehandedly killing hundreds of Galbatorix's elite soldiers I started to wonder if the player character is really supposed to be Eragon, or if he's actually a time-traveling version of Roran from book 3.

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 :)
Played it all the time as a kid
GGs
I would have been so disapointed if it didnt end with a mariage
wow dude, you tottaly Eracrush that girl
you guys should go to a con and cosplay eragon and his inappropriately-aged elf gf xD or do a two person dragon
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 didn't like the bow gameplay or the flying on saphira
Played it on PC and loved every moment of it. I actually remember the game every here and then and het the desire to play it to this day
I remember playing it on PSP and I think it was an entirely different game I swear it was mostly dragon based combat and it was kinda good
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!
@shawdz Same my dad got me a PS2 for Christmas and this game was one of the games that he bought for me.
Same but I never did co op
Same here, I loved playing it with my friends
Yesss. My friend and I used to play it allll the time on her brother’s Xbox 360 😂 it was so much fun!
I still play it on Xbox 360 with my brother and have a blast
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.
Yeah, every epic fantasy book has that
They are coming out with a series on Disney plus
The scary thing about this game is that it's better than the movie. Both are an insult to the books.
@@royalwolf8537 They are? If so they better do that series justice
I adored the Eragon series as a kid, and it was honestly really cool to me when I slowly started actually knowing what the words meant without having to check the dictionary, made me feel so proud and happy :D
Now we need Kevduit to play the King Arthur video game based off the 2004 movie with Clive Owen playing King Arthur.
Oh shit I remember that game.
Was that the one on GameCube?
@@Fl1ckz_TV PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox.
I remember playing that shit waaay back. I think it was one of the first games I rented from a store 🤣
@@Fl1ckz_TV I don't even remember much about the game other than the fact that you could light your arrows on fire and shoot them at people. Then they would scream in agony as they burned to death.
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'm stealing the phrase "hell apartment of hate" that's so good
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.
Same here! Me and my cousin used to play this all the time when we were kids and I have fond memories of those times. It's not a good game by today's standarts nor a great adaptation, but it still has a place in my heart.
@@wendyschmidt3820Narnia, Harry Potter, LoTR and eragon were some of the movie games I enjoyed playing growing up. Those were good times.
this definitely gave me strong nostalgia flashbacks. it was goofy and weird but it was also so unique in how little people cared that for years it felt like a game only i had played. same for the ATLA game.
Same!! This game has so much nostalgic fondness for me too and I loved it so much when I was younger 💕
I liked it when i was a child. It prob sucks
So, this was literally the first videogame I ever played on my 360. It haunts my gamerscore to this day.

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
To be fair, they were generic ripoffs of star wars and LOTR
@@jaredouimette1 thats a fair argument, but star war is a cookie cutter heros journey too. Young peasant being discovered by a old wizard and trained to defeat the old evil sorcerer, lineage being often important.
And all fantasy rips off tolkien in one way or another.
BUT i do agree with you to some level. He does some course correcting in the last two books, but the first two are very star wars up to empire strikes back.
@@rowdeemunkee No, because it was developed in the 1960's. Star War was one of the first to do that.
@@jaredouimette1 are you seriously saying star wars was one of the first to do the cliche heros journey?
@@rowdeemunkee Yup.
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
I remember owning the game and that I played it but absolutely nothing about it. I'm pretty sure I had a similar experience of beating it and never touching or thinking about it again.
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.
They should completely remake the live-action movie into 4 full series, each series corresponding to one of the books.
@@Mark-in8ju Apparently there's going to be a series made by disney+ with the author as a writer.
It was always relevant to me but I can understand how some people forgot about it if they only watched the movie and never read the books. The author just made another book and he's making a TV series on Disney+. Hoping for the best but we'll see how it is, not having the highest hopes with how Percy Jackson is going.
When I was 14 or 15 I decided to read the whole series in one month
I hate them now, lmao
Kevduit is such a hero, playing games and torturing himself so we don't have to
Not the hero we wanted but the one we needed
fr love this man
He couldn’t save us all. I endured this torture back when it came out. Now I got Stockholm syndrome.
THIS WAS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE GAME AS A KID AND I FEEL LIKE NO ONE HAD EVER HEARD OF IT BESIDES ME
No dude me and my friend played this constantly growing up!
Same here man, I loved it so much; the movie wasn't good but after reading the book and then finding out there was a game I had a time of my life with it. Seeing it now hits different, but I might give it a replay just for the sake of it :D
i have it too, i quite enjoy that game
LOVED the game too dude. Always enjoyed the grapples too.
I was too dumb to beat it when I had it
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.
Sounds like a really good idea and seems fun, I would play it.
Nope, they shouldn’t.
@@BrooktheBladernope, you wouldn’t.
@booprice5473 what make you say that.
If a eragon game came out and actually redeemed the botched game play and made it similar to skyrims free roam mechanics and dragon combat was good I would totally play the hell out it
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
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.
There's also the factor that different kinds of games would come out back then. Hack and slash games like this are a rarity today (Devil May Cry V is the only big one I can think of that came out semi-recently). Also a day when open-world was still fairly rare (games like Elder Scrolls: Oblivion were the exception, not the norm). So it's also a matter of nostalgia for a type of game that generally doesn't get made anymore, at least not in the AAA scene. The Two Towers, Return of the King, Demon's Stone, God of War, Devil May Cry 3, all of those games were a blast and I still think they are. Give me more hack n' slash, AAA studios! I'll buy 'em!
@@kenjutsukata1o1 Bayonetta.
@@narius_jaden215 Bayonetta's a solid one, though the third was a bit of a letdown, and the second one came out nine years ago. Still a solid hack 'n slash series, though.
There’s also Astral Chain and the Nier games
This was actually my favorite game when I was a kid and actually got me into reading the absolutely amazing books
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
If only because they used several bits from the book as padding that were cut for time in the movie
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 😂😩
the live action hand inside of an animation cutscene is iconic.
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.
And the dragon has fucking *FEATHERED WINGS*. Even the video game got the wings correct!
@@5peciesunkn0wn To be fair a dragon with feathery wings doesn't sound so bad, but... not when the character you're trying to make doesn't have them. Kid/teen me thought it actually made sense as the membrane wouldn't tear from arrows and the like, although wings just don't work that way. :D
@@Niky272 Oh for sure lol. Plenty of dragon characters online have them, but it's the fact Saraphina is explicitly mentioned *numerous* times to have normal membrane wings.
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
Don’t you guys remember in the first book where eragon killed like 400 soldiers by hand?
When?
@@Stewer1000 it was a joke. He could barely fight until like the end of the second book and passed out every time he used magic for the first half of the series as far as I recall but it has been close to a decade since reading the inheritance books.
Me over here, having read the books, knowing that in book three his cousin Roran actually does kill over 290 dudes with a sledgehammer.
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.
My same thoughts! Eragon OST is one of the best in the entire videogames industry.
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 remember...flying a lot?? and...orbs???
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.
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.
It's Netflix
I give it two episodes before it detracts exponentially.
@@kenjikune2565 That's generous, I'd say the very first episode detracts from the books exponentially
The author was working in the movies too. He actually is one of the soldiers in the final battle that gets beheaded. I felt so betrayed when i saw the movie.
@@hgesler Oh no, that destroys the little slither of hope I had left
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.
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 remember playing this as a kid, and now i like dragons because of it.
Same but the opposite
@@Q_Tura you like dragons and now you like this game because of it?
@@RokkieSparrow No, the love for dragon came first and thats why I enjoyed the game
@@Q_Tura that’s what i said 😔
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
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😂
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.
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...
If memory serves i dont think the books were read, and they ignored input qnd suggestions from the authors. Pretty sure Paolini even said that when they made The Eragon movie they took advantage of the fact that he was minor and used all kinds of labor laws etc to partially screw him over.
I actually liked the Percy Jackson films way more than I did Eragon, like I'm comfortable the Percy Jackson films exist. I wish the Eragon film died in a fire, and while the Percy Jackson films are not as good as the books. It at least felt like they read them, For Eragon nobody read the book and if they did it wasn't the same one as the rest of us.
And along can the Artemis Fowl movie to say, "Hold me Guinness!" to the Percy Jackson movie.
There is only one God
I’m confused. There’s no such thing as a Percy Jackson movie
Eragon: “I have become more powerful than any Jedi!”
Count Dooku: “Good, twice the pride, double the fall!”
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.
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.
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.
Ugh the worst moment as a kid was having to explain to my friend that she’d have to watch me play for 30 mins before they could play again lol
I wish the Eragon books had got a fair chance man, they didn't deserve this😭
They might still get one.. if you go to the authors tiktok, he said that Disney + is making an adaption of it and that he will be producing and co writing it as well.

all the cutscenes in this game are truly cinematic masterpieces
"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.
tbf, the inheritance cycle was "good" it wasnt brilliant(especialy the first 2 books)(but then agian, they where written by a 16 year old thats impressive)...

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🥲
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 loved the books so much! Saphira was so sarcastic. And brom was probably my favorite mentor yet.
Lmao if you liked Saphiras sarcasm you should totally read the new book about Murtagh. Thorn is hella funny 🤣
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.
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.
“Pain, stabbing” I felt that
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.
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
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. 😎👍🏼
This was one of my first games ever on the 360 and as a kid I loved it, you just unlocked a forgotten memory
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.
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 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 actually played the heck outta this game as a kid. Good times
Interesting how this version of Safari has more book accurate wings then the one in the film.
This, chronicles of ancient darkness, arrtemis fowl and harry potter were my escapes as a child and im endlessly grateful to the creative minds who allowed them to be so. Amazing authors.
I enjoyed the part when Eragon says "Bazinga!".
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
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 actually fun as hell as a kid, loved Eragon
A true hero 🙏
I did what needed to be done, for the people
I think we were all wondering when Kevduit would inevitably cover this iconic game
I know I'm late to the party but fun fact!! The narrator for this game is TC Carson, the original Voice Actor for Kratos in the greek God of War games.
Fun fact, the “Minotaurs” (the Kull), the second Sapphira mission, and the mission before the forest weren’t in the PS2 version.
So Kevduit chose the longest version of the game when picking the XBOX 360 version
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.
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
A thing I learned that gave me mad respect:
The author, Christopher Paolini, wrote the first book during his teenage years!
He was 20 years old when the first book was published, and 28 years old when the book series ended.
Mad respect.
Brom was the best part of the movies by far. Saphira was pretty cool, even if her design in the movie was completely wrong (she was supposed to have scales that shone like sapphires... hence her name).
As a long term kevduit fan I can certainly say this video is a W everyone should watch your videos ngl
Or everyone, list better dragon games to make Kev feel better after playing this.
I'll start:
Spyro Reignited Trilogy
The entire Drakengard series
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.
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.
Can’t believe I actually played this as a kid. Thank you kev for suffering this infernal game. 😂
I love the part where eragon said
"It's eragoning time"
I'm kinda mad that I JUST learned there's apparently a book after brisingr. There were only 3 when I read it, then I kinda forgot about it, and now I have to read the whole series again.
I loved this game, used to play co-op with my cousin back on the day, so many good memories...
Sad how Established Titles turned out to be a complete scam.
I don't even know how people believed it in the first place.
@@steelbear2063 eh, it does sound like the kinda shit the post-Brexit UK government might pull to try and raise money
So glad to see how lore accurate the game is to the movie of the game based on a booked game.
Tbh, combat looks quite fun.
Cutscenes on the other hand reminds of the really old, horror-like budget movies.
In middle school I had this one classmate that really liked the movie and games and he just wouldn't stop talking about it. Ever.
And he was the only one that ever talked about it on our school, lmao.
I remember this game from when I was a kid I forgot how good it was
this unlocked childhood memories I didn't know I had
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 loved playing this with my brother, I was always the side character tho
I absolutely loved this game as a kid! I read all the books and watched the movie before I played so I knew All The Things already xD Used to love the flying sections literally just because I was obsessed with dragons :') The Inheritance Cycle is probably still one of my favourite book series and I really should read it again! The movie and game, though, is terrible xD Would probably still play the game again just for nostalgia tho :')
Disney plus is making a series overviewed by Paolini!
I played the psp version which was basically exclusively dragon flying. Unlike this version where you just fly in a preset path you actually get maps where you can freely fly wherever.
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.
6:00 - I'm pretty sure he doesn't even pull some of this off when he becomes his "half-elf" form or whatever you call it lmao
