Connor will refuse to watch Cutscenes but will read the story in a speedrun.
as he should
Reading more than actual Yugioh players.
@@williamfallsas a ygo player i cannot be offended ,i played d.d assillant as if it was d.d warror lady, i can't imagine the embarresment if it happens to someone irl
@@some2043 Both of these cards are like 20 years old man. Dafuq are you doing?
@@leviathan5207 Playing better formats.
It was an absolute blast to help and guide you through this hell of a game. Glad to see you did have some fun and finished it to the very end!
I haven’t finished the video but I see you in the description
Thank you for your sacrifice. Monke needed all the help he could get.
FM is one of those games i will never personally play but love watching speedruns of. its mesmerising in the strangest way
Its so surreal to suddenly get Wursti Jumpscared in a CDawg Video. Was a welcome surprise to see you though!
Pin this dude, Mudan!
"Monke why dont you duel him, youre the strongest duelist I have met"
Monke: I literaly just got my deck *lol
Tea Gardner: Friendship !!!
He hasn't met any other duelests
Listen man, the only other duelist she knows is Joey Wheeler. You're the best duelist she's met by default.
@@shino4242Which is hilarious because, in the anime (and pretty sure in the manga as well) Tea beats Joey's ass multiple times in a row because Joey built his first deck with nothing but monster cards.
@@Mrryn Even better is when she as fighting Mai it seemed like she didn't even fully know how to play her own deck, doubling down on just how bad Joey was to have never beaten her xD. Calling him a 3rd rate duelist with a 4th rate deck may have been generous :p
Love Connor flexing his VA skills as he reads the character dialogue haha. His Joey and Kaiba voices were hilarious.
To me, Joey's voice is rather easy to mimic (cliche New Yorker to the fullest) so it was funny hearing a Brit try to do the accent, but I loved it 😊
Actually, what the heck am I saying, Little Kuriboh nailed it and he's also British, lol.
He did it in Ff7 it was so fun
I was expecting a "IN AMERICA!" From his Bandit Keith lol
His Kaiba voice sounds just like Johness the Dissector from HxH
Loved his rex voice too
More than the speedrunning, I enjoy Connor explaining the nuances of a game. A lot like the Fear & Hunger videos it gives a flavour of why the game is interesting but isn't so in depth it gets bogged down.
OMG, that's it! You perfectly explained why this style of video is so perfect to me! 😮
i always loved how the final boss scream of "nooooo" is so long it needs two text boxes, both me and my father played this game and laughed so hard at the time
Early industry video game design was a rollercoaster fever dream of torturous expectations, questionable decisions, and some insane "I FUCKING DID IT" moments.
This is a 1999 videogame. What are you talking about looool
@@necromax13TES Daggerfall released only 3 years before that. The original Doom was 3 years further back again, 6 years before this game. Still fairly "early industry" in the grand scheme of things, even if it's not anywhere near the earliest games. Pong was as far back as 1972 after all, but videogames that far back weren't much of an "industry" which is the key word here. As far as capital gained across the industry per year goes, 1999 is pretty early into Videogame Industry's youth. These days the videogame industry is worth more than the film and music industries combined.
@@Lunam_D._Roger That's so unbeliavably fallacious. Claiming 1999 to be "early gaming" because doom came out seven years prior is wrong.
From 99 to today pretty much 99% of videogame breakthroughs have only been technological. Writing, escale, interactive systems, mechanics, everything was almost there. Hell, pretty much every videogame genre was already out and well represented.
Not to mention forbidden memories is a tcg game, and trading cards had already existed for quite some time then.
Ah, back to Twin Headed Thunder Dragon: The Game.
And black Metror dragon if your lucky in a casual playthrough
Spent years grinding for Meteor Black Dragon. Even with that beating the endgame bosses were hard af
i got stuck at the last one which is supposedky easier than the one exactky before it,
also game didn't want to give ne my 1 bmt even though i loaded and changed rng multiple times
Sometimes you just brick. It's all about luck.
Be six year old me desperate to get blue eyes and the ritual to summon ultimate dragon, never to be...
I remember having this game in early 2000s writing out tested fusion combinations and never getting past like 3 or 4 of the duelists because i was a snot nosed third rate duelist with a fourth rate deck. Then time went by, save got corrupted and i never played it again because too hard for a 10 year old who could only play a few hours a week. Thanks for playing.
By the way, one thing that Connor either didn't mention (or more likely didn't *know)* was that the AI has a sort of "Mercy Mode" - if the player destroys the first Monster the AI summons before they summon another (IE before the AI's next turn) then they won't summon *any* monster stronger than that first monster until they succeed in summoning a monster 2 turns in a row without one being destroyed.
So if the AI summons a monster weaker than Twin-Headed on their first turn, _do everything in your power_ to get that monster off the board before their turn rolls around again.
I am exactly 0% surprised that the dude helping him out is German. Like, this game was part of nearly everyone of my generations childhood~
Well, it was also very popular internationally. Honestly wouldn't be surprised if any heritage picked up the game. Not saying it's amazing by today's standards, but it was a good time killer for back in early consoles.
Yeah, I'm Mexican and this was our childhood too. I remember using different memory cards to get better cards from our friends
Cmon editor. Don't do him dirty
He didn't come up with the 4250 ATK for Gate Guardian, it's the amount of damage he took because the thing got an extra 500 from the meadow field
Yes, but he said 4250 Defense. So his brain was really, really muddled when he said that apparently.
@@azure663 i think he said attack 26:38
@@SubHumanGaming Yeah, no, no matter how many times I watch it I hear defense: 26:40
@azure663 you are so right, he says defense followed up with attack. idk how i missed it even with a rewatch when reading the comment. 😅
I played this game intially when I was like 5 years old and obviously got nowhere near completing it, but I recently discovered it 20 years later and managed to beat the game un modded! It still took me like a month of grinding though. It's such an RNG nightmare, these speedrunners are cracked.
Same travel here but still grinding. Already got meteor B., meteor + red eyes and megamorph
Yu-gi-oh games back in the day were incredible. This one, and Duelist of Roses were incredible. Played the crap out of the latter, it is like Yu-gi-oh meets chess meets a tactical RPG.
Did you do Falsebound Kingdom? That sounds similar.
Falsebound Kingdom actually reuses some assets and music from Duelists of the Roses.
@@Randomperson462 That makes sense. I noticed it used most of the music and Character assets from this game too.
Duelist of Roses is the British one, right?
The old YuGiOh games were indeed fantastic. One of my old favourites when I was younger was Dungeon Dice Monsters, personally. Sure, no story. But the gameplay was a heck of a lot of fun... and probably needed marginally less luck than this speedrun here.
Literally the Dark Souls of Card Games.
Edit: Yeah y’all right, this more like the Fear and Hunger of card games than Dark Souls because at least DS takes skill.
Untrue. Dark Souls is hard but fair. This game is outright malicious at endgame (the final boss has triple the size of the player's hand the entire match)
edit; also, he can literally see everything you set and what you draw. He is like anime Pegasus on crack
Bosses don’t cheat on Dark souls. Gankers do, but not the bosses.
Dark Souls has minimal RNG.
Bruh, you should play yugioh reshef of destruction. That was the most brutal Yugioh game ever existed.
Nah this game was just straight up bullshit. Crazy I managed to beat this game back in highschool, granted I had a lot of help from old online forums
at 26:40 he isn't wrong, he's just reading Gate Guardian's ATK with the field buff.
Genuinely impressed he managed to beat it in 9 hours
True shit
He also blundered against last boss once and also read the dialogue lol
Owning this game as a kid means 99% of this content is new to you
Didn't expect to see SSeth's breeders of the nephelym run as the example of speedrun videos.
As an Italian, I absolutely love the fact that Connor's editor is Italian as well, his pearls that he drops here and there are awesome xD
davvero, per noi italiani ci sono sempre delle bellissime chicche, ancora mi ricordo quando droppò l'ssj4 naboletano kekw
The final boss cheats even more than Connor mentioned. On top of all the other nonsense, he secretly has additional cards in his hand. I want to say he has a hand size of 10, but it might be even higher than that.
The video that ThaRixer made on this game mentions that the final boss has 20 (!) cards on his hand.
Hope he tries the sequel (sort of) Duelists of Roses.
I had this game as a small not even English speaking and barely literate child and I must have spent hundreds of hours playing it, learning from trial and error what fused into what, what each of the signs were strong and weak against, even just what each button does cause the game doesn't tell you anything. My cousin also liked this game and had found on the internet the codes to buy rare cards and wrote down ALL of them for us to use, except of course any decent card in this game is insanely expensive or even costs the max amount you can hold and you only earn 5 chips per game at max, I did manage to buy one card with 2100 ATK and it carried me a lot. I never did figure out the Twin Headed Thunder Dragon strat but I did have Raigeki, I never got farther than the Low and High mages though. Watching this inspired me to download the ROM for DuckStation, activate the cheat to give me every card and I'm currently playing it to get some revenge for my kid self, 20 years in the making. You're insane for doing this legit Connor, I just don't have the time anymore to attempt this, even emulated and with fast forward.
this game was my whole childhood, basically. to see how popular it still is in the speedrunning community makes me stupidly happy.
i really wanted to play this game as a kid but i never managed to get past the beginning, this is giving me mad nostalgia
Everyone: "I loved this game as a kid"
Me: "Did the editor sneak in Breeders of the Nephelym?! YES!"
1. My dream of a Trash Taste Yu-Gi-Oh tournament is closer now!
2. I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh, I play the card game to this day and a lot with my friends.
I've played several Yu-Gi-Oh video games but never this one.
And after watching you play it Connor, I'm so happy that I never even tried.
This is one of the first games I have ever played back in the days, very fun to see you try to speedrun it now!
this was amazing. would love to see more of these weird speed runs
Loved this game as a kid - just got it on Emulator. This is honestly one of my favourite videos on RUclips at the moment. Love your voice acting too Connor!
when the speedrun is so long it could just be considered a normal playthrough
I love these videos where Connor plays retro games, or games with retro style. It's like a blast into the past, exploring a different world and time
Connor is way too good at voicing Kaiba lmao
“It’s not great, but it’s not good either”
Quote of the year, fr😂
The best part is knowing that this game came out during the early PS1 era where internet access wasn't very common so many kids had to figure out how to do this on their own. Most of us failed.
That Kaiba voice was so good I can't believe it
5:40 Fun fact: That monster is actually in the Yugioh card game and is the Fusion of Sangan and Witches of the Black Forest.
And I shit you not, its name is...wait for it...Sanwich.
Thanks for this speedrun Connor. It made me go back to this game and finally beat it (in normal mode) after 23 years of bad RNG.
This brings back so many memories, never cleared it cause trying to go through the last 6 boss fights in a row was too brutal.
I absolutely love this game. Thanks for this Connor!
Alright this is like the last game i expected Connor to play. I love Yugioh capsule monsters. I played that game a ton back in the PS2 era.
Forbidden Memories is my one true guilty pleasure game. Yes a lot of it is because of nostalgia with me playing this game a lot as a kid, but while being kind of objectively a bad yu-gi-oh! game, I think the game is quite fun if you see it more as an RPG where your deck grows in power, and yes it's grindy but honestly I think it's a game that greatly suits playing in short periods of time, and the music, while it doesn't have a lot of variety, absolutely SLAPS.
I love this style of video, please do more!
I remember this game I had it as a kid! Never came even remotely close to beating it and after watching this I don’t think I ever could have lol
I know right. Fuckin straight up unfair, took me like a year of trying before I beat it. That elite four section at the end was definitely responsible for knocking a couple of years off my life 😂😂
I could not stop thinking through this whole video that Connor is SO GOOD at doing voices. Like, I know he's a voice actor, but it still surprised me when he busted out some of these voices.
0:40 didn't know connor already came out. what a brave man 😂
I passed over Yu-Gi-Oh as a kid, so this was all entirely new info to me lol. The art is neat, tho I was a Magic and Pokemon kid in the late 90s and early 00s. Seems this game was super early - lot of mechanics and stuff not in the game that were in later games from what I read online. Fun vid!
This is the second time I watched your video. Your accent is PERFECT for this game and others. LOVE the acting! I'll be re-watching this again
i like how the YGO tv show made it seem like you could win even with rubbish cards if you were smart enough or w/e. but in actual practice, the quality of your deck is the key determining factor in whether you win games or not.
eh. there’s a limit to it. sure you can’t just pick the absolute worst cards and be mad when you lose. i played worms back in 2012-13, and let me tell you, they were largely considered unplayable. 6 or 8 playable monsters out of 26 all propelled by one custom card trap card. but i labbed it so hard. i had the entire store watching me bc i was whooping mermails with it, i mean they were all standing behind me cheering me on in one game that went into time. i even got a ride to regionals based off of it
I watched live and yes I would love more Bizarre speedruns! It was a blast to watch. I'm surprised you didn't leave in a clip of the jank attack animations 😂
Got to love the chokedawg showing up during streams, always makes it intresting xD
Actually crazy hype for Connor to play one of my favorite games of all time.
I thought "a word from our Sponsor" in the tournament announcer voice was leading to an ad read but it was just Kaiba lol, incredibly well done, I never finished this game as a kid
Absolutely love this style of content would be so awesome if we got more
my brother and I both beat this as kids, over months and with intense grinding, but we did it. our biggest feat was to win the scrippted fight against Heishin by grinding the NPCs outside of the storymode. It took us weeks of vacationtime, incredible luck with the draworders and was not rewarded by the game in any way, since you just restart the fight, but damn the feeling of wining this was incredible
Respect to Connor for not relying on the spirit of an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh to do this speedrun!
Hooo i hope you went to tokyo dome, because they announced like a remake with a few other gameboy games sprinkled in.
Also props on using Shantae music
It is such a blast seeing someone play Forbidden Memories man, thus was my childhood. My brother and a I GRINDED this game to hell and back. Love ya Conner!
this version of duel monsters is hurting my brain. glad you made the video.
Connor bringing out my inner Yugioh fan
Connor and Yugioh is a combo I never knew I needed.
Now we need a duelist of the rose speedrun
12:37. I wonder how much Kaiba corp paid Connor for that promotion.
35:33 I don't even remember how I got to this guy as kid. Never beat him
I remember beating this when I was in early Junior High. I barely spoke English back then so I don't even understand how did I beat it, but I remember how much time I spent to grind for cards in this game. What a time, memorizing and experimenting combination of cards was really a core memory for me.
I never thought i would see you play Forbidden Memories,. Loved it.
I remember playing this game as a kid. I used to collect the cards and you can enter the number in the lower left corner of the card into the game to get the card in the game. My deck was instantly OP.
Let's goooo, this game is so nostalgic! Glad you did this one
In early OCG, the stars also didn't matter and you could just normal summon any monster. Tributes weren't added until a few months in.
Oh my god I had this game growing up! I loved it so much, even if it was confusing AF. This is such a nostalgia blast to watch.
i always appreciate the Connor plays the Playstation 1 and 2 games on emulators with Bilinear filtering on so it looks like it did back in the day on an SD TV. the old games look ick crystal clear
Connor: high attack, 2100
me: oh right pre-spin-offs. I think 4 stars, monsters you can summon without hassle, can have 2100 now
How about Level 1 monsters (1-stars) with 2000 atk (Drytron). Levels are just for show or archetype shenanigans nowadays.
No @@blight1885, levels are also for extra deck summoning now you dummy
How about Kashtira Fenrir level 7 free special summon with about 2400 atk/def, or diabelle star that has 2500/2000?
@@jojodosjogos oh if only those dudes were just special summonable beatsticks instead of insanely strong tools
@@jojodosjogos Everyone knows that's why people play Fenrir and Diabellestar. Because of their high attack stat.
Hell yeah Yugioh and Connor - my two favourite things on YT in one video c:
Now Connor just needs to speedrun reshef of destruction (💀) to become the KING OF GAMES!
6:58 "After Joey gets his ass handed to him by Kaiba, we then decide to duel him as well just to rub salt in the wound". 😂😂 I like the toxicity. Really had me crying.
That was very enjoyable to watch, a blast as always! Thank you Mudan and Luca for the great work!!! 💜💜💜💜
so many good memories with this game ❤. i would have killed for 15 card drops tho, the grind was very real. im still shocked they gave every single card a battle animation, would have loved if you showed at least one of them
There's another yugioh game that uses the same fusion and summoning mechanics but it's easier more fun too imo. It's called duelist of the roses. Instead of just playing in attack and defense positions and attacking the opponents monsters, the game plays on a chess board and each monster moves 1 space unless they are on a terrain that benefits them then they can move 2 spaces. You can also set a monster of your choice to be a king making you gain certain effects in battle like +50 lp each turn. Speedruns are like an hour any%
Forbidden Memories is a CRAZY game to Speed Run
I'm so happy you got to touch this weird obscure game that Konami made in the early days. I'm hoping for duelist of the roses now cuz those animations go hard
I’m glad you played and explained this game. I remember playing it but it was too hard for my child brain.
I used to love this game because you can input real card serial number into the game to get that card in game.
And the strategy I used that time was: just throw everything away to get Exodia.
I've never seen such a lucky final 6 rng back to back :o Glad you enjoyed the game
I had this game on the ps1 growing up and loved it even tho was impossibly hard. I did beat it but took forever. I remember using the twin headed thunder dragon so much omg. The anime didnt follow rules a lot of the time too so the game is on brand. I love it used the old anime look too
I had this game when I was a kid and I'm pretty sure I just looked at the neat manual and never actually tried to play the game...so I'm glad I can watch other people play it now because it seems insane.
Pressing square when selecting attacking monster and attack target will give you a 3D sequence for the battle.
Bro losing to Kaiba thinking was scripted was pure gold 😂
12:34 Attention Duelists! My hair is welcoming you.
This comment got slept on! 🤣🤣
LETS FUCKING GO FORBIDDEN MEMORIES
That Kaiba inpression was surprisingly accurate
I can say wholeheartedly that Connor made this game look so much fun
Leave it to Connor to pay attention to the story only during a speed run
As a big Yu-Gi-Oh fan, listening to him explain the game at the beginning about gave me an aneurysm XD
I can't believe how lucky he got with the last six bosses, it took me 20 attempts to beat this damn game. I'm so salty.
thats pretty bad for using the 15 card mod lol
Funny thing about this game, is that it has a menu option to input codes and get a card. You can only do it once for each card. One way you could find these codes were in the actual real cards of the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game. At the time, I bought a Pegasus deck for myself, and was able to use some of these codes. So maybe this game was not just insane, but a (bad) way to promote the actual TCG?
Beginning of video: "IF you beat this in 9 hours you'd be top 100"
End of video: Sub 9 Hour run, placed 216th - Dead Last
I remember getting this game as a kid because like everyone my age, loved yugioh. I couldn’t even beat the first opponent after trying over and over then dropped the game completely. Good times lol.
When Connor said this game was before I didn’t expect that before where spell cards were still magic cards
3:14 correction, one of the card has to be 1600 ATK or higher to make twin head easier and use less card. So you don't need thunder dragon to make it.
