I love how Belze's boss fight is the complete opposite of what you expect. You'd think he would be all stylish and cool in his suit, but instead he just turns into Jeff Goldblum.
Oh, I've played and beaten God Hand, including a Kick Me Sign run. I'm just hoping Woolie does right by this game and deliver one Ball Buster the way it's meant to be.
Well, it's an actual surname. Honore de Balzac, a playwright with a lot of really good quotes, is a famous bearer of such. Also, his name is a bit like "honor the ballsack", which is funny.
Y'know whenever the big demon boys fight you in human form they seem to be able to just walk away alright, whenever they fight you as demons they seem to immediatly explode
Belze mentions it earlier in the game. He says something to Elvis and Shannon along the lines of "Don't lose to him, especially not in demon form!". There's no reason to go all-out because if they fuck up as demons, they straight-up die, while as humans they can just retreat and fight again, even if they're weaker.
It's not enough that Woolie is on easy mode, has looked up tricks before even starting the playthrough, never goes above level 2 difficulty even though he's on easy mode. He had to use Shaolin Fist for that part to take away all the fun and satisfaction from the gameplay. With how easy the game already is, his upgraded health and god hand meter with a lot of roulette orbs on stock, it's amazing how he still dies from time to time.
I swear it seems like enemies get slightly bigger or Gene gets slightly shorter on harder difficulty levels, my eyes might be playing tricks on me though.
I'm sad we never get to fight humanoid Belze. It'd be really fucking cool if he pulled some Yakuza shit and whipped out some classy martial arts in that suit instead of jumping straight into RE4 boss mode.
As unfulfilling as Octopimp's playthrough of this game on GrumpCade is (he does it from NG+ and buys endgame super attacks at the earliest opportunity), he does make sure to switch up the costumes.
These demon forms kind of imply that Simmons in RE6 was just Capcom going "let's see what assets we can we pull out and reuse from our rarely played games".
imagine doing that part with like 9 elite enemies at once without having six orbs for two shaolin blasts now imagine doing it without using god hand or roulette moves at all that room is harder than the actual final boss when playing a "Kick Me" sign run
I've been playing shadow of war recently, and when you quit that game it actually gives a message to the effect of "your game HAS been saved, go ahead and quit."
When a game does that exit save thing I think what it means is it saving the last checkpoint or autosave spot and warning you it isn't saving right where you are.
Alright, at this point I'm like 80% sure that it's Pat that keeps attempting to whistle. I don't know if it's the mic or Pat but something is preventing that whistle from sounding half decent. It's just leaving that kind of feeling like when you go to high-five someone and your hand is off centre so the impact is dull, the sound is lacking and everyone just kind of awkwardly pretends that everything is fine.
"I wasn't paying attention, why did that Luca dude get hit in the head by a bowling ball when he hit GioGio? What does that have to do with making life?"
Pat: Why didn't you do that in the beginning? The question I always ask when playing a JRPG or watching Anime. My favorite example of that question is the Genocide Route in Undertale. Sans just unloads the moment the fight starts, and if you survive goes "Huh, always wondered why they never just went all out at the start.". 'Japan's Elite Obese Ninja' Tubbimura, is that you?
Pat pointing out that serious boss fights don't have goofy punch animations reminds me of a thing from Undertale I think about a lot, where some fights trigger Serious Mode which changes joke item abbreviations & effects to line up with the tone of a story-heavy fight-- I think it's the only time I've seen it as an explicit mechanic, but sometimes the same design choice shows up as a small detail like here in God Hand, it's interesting
i forgot the VERY SIMILAR transition of the demon guy's face after he transformed into the fly form to Saddler's mutation. like the the way the camera zooms out slowly with the sway of the head and thy have VERY similar old man faces after having transformed.
Pat beat the game without juggles Woolie beats the game without guard breaks Clearly they shouod share the pad and combine to form a single competent player
9:05 There any reason why Woolie didn't try breaking open some jars in an attempt to find fruit? I forgot a lot about Belze so I don't know if he has good range or chase abilities.
I am possibly one of your biggest fans.ive started watching 5 years ago and love all of your videos including the mail series.But wollie you suck at this game.I love you guys!
Shadow Tactics pops up a message whenever the last save was over a minute ago, although you can also disable it. Then again you'll need to reload a lot anyway so having that ticker really helps remind you.
Wait, Four Devas? Is that some Japanese thing? I'm literally playing March of the Black Queen reading a thing about a different 4 Devas here as that comes up. That was freaky. Ogre Battle and God Hand same universe confirmed.
Not being absolutely sure I saved moments after saving was born from losing save files to siblings overwriting them and being forced to use slots farther down the list.
Just finished this game for the first time. My defenses were impregnable. My style was impetuous. I Dragon Kicked everyone's ass into the Milky Way. I am Alexander the Great.
I wasn’t actively playing for the PS1 era, but I do paranoid doubles saves all the time. I don’t know what the cause would be for this compulsive saving
Yes, if you want to pick up a fly, for whatever reason, draw circles with your finger infront of it, and it will watch your finger and get discombobulated enough for you to just grab it.
I JUST figured out who that old demon guy in the purple suit sounds like... the fucking old ass sith lord from the star wars movies, lol. Up untill now I was like, "This guy sounds so FUCKING familiar whos he remind me of?!" and it JUST now hit me, lol.
23:11 so he's actually the bouncer in the casino who's guarding the 3 chest there. Fun fact, you can actually fight him early on when you try to punch the girls working there. he'll teleport you to a cage and fight you. i can't remember if your life/god trigger/ orbs stays low after he whoops your ass, it must probably. i never beat him so i don't know what happens if you win.
Hey Woolie, tip for your second playthrough- when you do a pummel/stinger/etc, ALL of the face buttons count, not just circle. Mash the fuck outta the right side of your controller.
I love how Belze's boss fight is the complete opposite of what you expect. You'd think he would be all stylish and cool in his suit, but instead he just turns into Jeff Goldblum.
It's not entirely out of left field - his name is clearly a shortened version of Beelzebub.
Jeedy Jay I mainly meant how you fight the other bosses in their human form first, but yeah you're right with him literally being Lord of the Flies.
djh491 True, but it was still rather outta place.
im honeslty dissapointed he wasn't cool or stylish, i tough he was goint to be the wesker of this game.
djh491
"IT'S MY BIRTHDAAAAAAAY!" - Belze when attacking, probably.
I think there's nothing this game can do to surprise me anymore and then Arnold Schwarzenegger shows up.
And I love to imagine that after Gene beats him, he screams, "I WON'T BE BACK!!!"
Hypno-Thorax just wait until you find out your arm was an android this whole time but you chose to ignore it
Have you seen the credit sequence?
Why would you ever think this game no longer had surprises.
When Woolie said “MY SUIT IS EXPENSIVE”, I thought it was actually the demon guy saying it as he transformed
Scourge and Solace same
Woolie for VA
Mind blown
When Pat went "Oh look a knife... Spear, sword whatever" I imagined Matt from the other room screaming "Nagitama!" The good old days of silent hill!
They used kill Lu Bu all the time with it.
IT'S A "NAGINATA" FOR FUCKS SAKE. :P
Good old SIlent Hill Memes! Back when they were still Machinima's sluts
Jeff Cyr when machinima wasn't dead as dead can get
Wait, I just realized that getting the shaolin palm for free at the end is a kung fu hustle joke.
The Arnold guy is the bouncer from the casino. He's been there the whole game.
Amazing
I was really hoping the old man would still be wearing his suit in demon form...
BUSINESS FLY IS HERE FOR THOSE TPS REPORTS, *AND YOUR SOUL*
We're slowly approaching the end game...I pray to the temple of Gene for glorious ballbusting glory in the finale...
RandoChris : spoilers for last boss: check out this video at the halfway point of the boss fight
ruclips.net/video/REgKUHv5Ykg/видео.html
Oh, I've played and beaten God Hand, including a Kick Me Sign run. I'm just hoping Woolie does right by this game and deliver one Ball Buster the way it's meant to be.
The soundtrack to this whole LP is BUUUUUURN! and Pat and Woolie trying badly to mimic the whistle.
started playing this last week, finished it yesterday, gotta give props to Woolie for playing AND mantaining a conversation with Pat
Fun fact: The guy who did the Deva Leader's voice was also Spotswood in Team America: World Police.
I wish he yelled "Jesus Tittyfucking CHRIIIIIIIST!" as he died
Jordan Etherington
Gene: Where is Olivia!?
Belze: You really want to know?
Gene: Yes!
Belze: Then blow me.
he's also Jack Smith in American Dad
Jordan Etherington I’m pretty sure he’s also cosmo in the fairly odd parents
*GENE:* It's time to clip into ladies and fight z-axis, and I'm all out of ladies!
Remember that time Pat cut off that guys' clothes in Revengeance? Good times.
Look at Belze's fly-eyes during the fight. They turn pink as a telegraph to an upcoming attack. Pretty neat.
I bet the guy with "NINJA" written on his headband is just a straight up Godfrey Ho reference.
Would be better if the guy was in another game as well.
Pasi Mysiini
He's just the Head Ninja in Charge.
*Dynamite, Dynamite!*
Beelzebub lord of the flies, giant fly monster transformation makes sense
So when does the twist happen where devil hand is an android.
Devon Palmer never
The devil hand really was Alexander all along...
*Cuts to a flashback of Devil Hand is looking at a magazine cover with himself, Alexander, on it*
Colt Burton devil hand ripped off his own arm
Still be a cool hand with all the same emotions it gave you being valid if it was....
So, Devil May Cry 1-4 let's plays before 5?
sounds terrible
Do it in chronological order
3-1-4-2 then 5
that way we also go from super hype, to ok, to great hype to HOLY FUCK WHY and then HYPER HYPE.
Only if Billy plays 2 and tells us why he likes it the best
That's what i'm doing right now. Had Nightmare glitching out and refuse to die today.....
How do you ask for 4 LPs dawg wtf
that Arnold looking guy is actually the bouncer from the casino, if you attack anyone while in the casino you have to fight him
His full name is Belzig Balsac.
Not really but I wish it was.
There's a side-story villain in Dragon's Dogma named Balsac. Some guys lose their shit when they get confronted with this.
It is also in the Sword of the Berserk game. Balsac seems to be a popular name.
DarkKnightGrave It is? Well, at least I know what to name a goofy villain trying to be threatening.
Well, it's an actual surname. Honore de Balzac, a playwright with a lot of really good quotes, is a famous bearer of such.
Also, his name is a bit like "honor the ballsack", which is funny.
That's bullshit! But I believe it
Y'know whenever the big demon boys fight you in human form they seem to be able to just walk away alright, whenever they fight you as demons they seem to immediatly explode
I think it's that they are more powerful in demon form but can die
I was moreso thinking of a reason why the devas don't fight in demon form intially
Belze mentions it earlier in the game. He says something to Elvis and Shannon along the lines of "Don't lose to him, especially not in demon form!". There's no reason to go all-out because if they fuck up as demons, they straight-up die, while as humans they can just retreat and fight again, even if they're weaker.
23:10 *ARMSTRONG!?!*
Ar- NOLD.
Gene Ballbuster Adventures: Arabian Nights
Shaolin Fist is basically using health items in bayonetta and dmc
You got through the fight, but did you really?Do you actually feel like a winner?
No items, Rebellion only, Final Vergil!
It's not enough that Woolie is on easy mode, has looked up tricks before even starting the playthrough, never goes above level 2 difficulty even though he's on easy mode. He had to use Shaolin Fist for that part to take away all the fun and satisfaction from the gameplay. With how easy the game already is, his upgraded health and god hand meter with a lot of roulette orbs on stock, it's amazing how he still dies from time to time.
Yes I felt like a winner
you can't go above level 2 on easy.
Megane Jiggly How does one go past level 2 anyway?
Why does Woolie have a vendetta against juking?
probably has to do with getting hit with one of the attacks it doesn't dodge immediately after pat kept encouraging him to do it lol
i love your magneto/pringles avatar.
Dark Souls.
I know. It's a panic crutch. I'm sorry.
You must dattebayo harder woolie.
So when do we get to fight Ubik, Conrad, Void, waifu Slan, and Griffith?
Husbando Void.
Now I'm just imagining a dog version of this game called Dog Paw.
Or Okami.
Tennis Ball Buster
first convo, GAMES SHOULD JUST SAY SAVE AND QUIT TO PUT MY SOUL AT EASE!
The Black Barron just being a dude in Black face was the funniest part of a game with lot of funny parts.
Fun fact about the Belze fight, almost EVERY SINGLE ONE of his attacks is can be duck dodged
Not that Woolie would ever find that out
i liked the part where he perfectly juked all 6 projectiles in a row, then spam backflipped out of it afterwards anyway to deny himself the punish
I know. It's a panic crutch. I'm sorry.
woolie pls stop making yourself sad by looking at my comments
Aw you're fine, I was just messing with ya. This whole LP was great
Woolie what do you say to the allegations that you used to be white?
Ive been thinking, either all the enemies are very tall or Gene is super short
I swear it seems like enemies get slightly bigger or Gene gets slightly shorter on harder difficulty levels, my eyes might be playing tricks on me though.
The headbands that say "NINJA" on them are a reference to the so bad it's good films of Godfrey Ho
The pummel prompt is how farmers hypnotize chickens so they can be picked up by the legs
I'm sad we never get to fight humanoid Belze. It'd be really fucking cool if he pulled some Yakuza shit and whipped out some classy martial arts in that suit instead of jumping straight into RE4 boss mode.
Hope they show the unlocked costumes in new game plus.
As unfulfilling as Octopimp's playthrough of this game on GrumpCade is (he does it from NG+ and buys endgame super attacks at the earliest opportunity), he does make sure to switch up the costumes.
3:05 hollow knight downright says that it will save when you try to exit
A new video I LOVE IT!!!!!😘😘😘
These demon forms kind of imply that Simmons in RE6 was just Capcom going "let's see what assets we can we pull out and reuse from our rarely played games".
Capcom has been the kings of asset recycling for a very long time. Always remember the Morrigan sprite.
imagine doing that part with like 9 elite enemies at once without having six orbs for two shaolin blasts
now imagine doing it without using god hand or roulette moves at all
that room is harder than the actual final boss when playing a "Kick Me" sign run
That is a red door straight out of Devil May Cry.
I just realized, these aren't just Sagat references...they're TIGER MASK references!
Me: How the fuck is Armstrong in this game?
Armstrong: NANOMACHINES SON!
I've been playing shadow of war recently, and when you quit that game it actually gives a message to the effect of "your game HAS been saved, go ahead and quit."
Arnold's the bouncer of the casino, so if you want a REAL fight against him...punch someone in the casino and he'll fight for real.
I LOVE IT!
Wow!
GRREAT!
The bad guy's voice when Gene first enters the tower sounds like Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget.
Paaaaat, you missed the perfect chance to call him Beelzebug!
When a game does that exit save thing I think what it means is it saving the last checkpoint or autosave spot and warning you it isn't saving right where you are.
I wish God Hand had a practice mode that let you check out the new Roulette moves
It does.
gaminggoddess85 : that's the joke.
Alright, at this point I'm like 80% sure that it's Pat that keeps attempting to whistle. I don't know if it's the mic or Pat but something is preventing that whistle from sounding half decent. It's just leaving that kind of feeling like when you go to high-five someone and your hand is off centre so the impact is dull, the sound is lacking and everyone just kind of awkwardly pretends that everything is fine.
I don't remember this part of JJBA.
I do
God you people are insufferable
I both dont and do remember it!
"I wasn't paying attention, why did that Luca dude get hit in the head by a bowling ball when he hit GioGio? What does that have to do with making life?"
Welcome back to Everyone in the world can block except Gene
Best Friends Play "Lol Woolie is so bad" (Part 14)
Wow. Those two ninja henchmen actually look like they're from the Cloud Village.
Pat: Why didn't you do that in the beginning?
The question I always ask when playing a JRPG or watching Anime.
My favorite example of that question is the Genocide Route in Undertale.
Sans just unloads the moment the fight starts, and if you survive goes "Huh, always wondered why they never just went all out at the start.".
'Japan's Elite Obese Ninja'
Tubbimura, is that you?
Pat pointing out that serious boss fights don't have goofy punch animations reminds me of a thing from Undertale I think about a lot, where some fights trigger Serious Mode which changes joke item abbreviations & effects to line up with the tone of a story-heavy fight-- I think it's the only time I've seen it as an explicit mechanic, but sometimes the same design choice shows up as a small detail like here in God Hand, it's interesting
i forgot the VERY SIMILAR transition of the demon guy's face after he transformed into the fly form to Saddler's mutation. like the the way the camera zooms out slowly with the sway of the head and thy have VERY similar old man faces after having transformed.
Gene has been learning from the School of the Undefeated of the East I see.
Pat beat the game without juggles
Woolie beats the game without guard breaks
Clearly they shouod share the pad and combine to form a single competent player
Flyboy is my favorite of the bosses. You can easily duke every one of his moves.
God I love this game, I forgot how long this ending section is where you do the mini boss rush up the tower.
9:05 There any reason why Woolie didn't try breaking open some jars in an attempt to find fruit? I forgot a lot about Belze so I don't know if he has good range or chase abilities.
Gori-tiger mask...
Man Tiger Mask gets referenced everywhere.
I am possibly one of your biggest fans.ive started watching 5 years ago and love all of your videos including the mail series.But wollie you suck at this game.I love you guys!
Shadow Tactics pops up a message whenever the last save was over a minute ago, although you can also disable it. Then again you'll need to reload a lot anyway so having that ticker really helps remind you.
Woolie's refusal to use AoE supers in packed situations is starting to get to me.
You don't know, it could just be that this is a kind of Gorilla that has a Zipper on its back.
WAS THE LEADER JUST EVILACK?
This desert town is where I had to tap out because the game got too hard for me. Looking forward to seeing what happens next!
TIGER GORILLIONAIRE
That moment when you realize spelling bees are on ESPN, but Evo isn't (unless you count that time the Capcom cup was on TBS).
BANG BANG BANG,
Yeah that's some devil trigger right there.
Does Woolie think the hand plant kick is a guard break? He is consistently doing it on reaction to enemies blocking.
I just realised Belze's voice actor played Spotswood in Team America World Police
23:00 Welcome back to 'Woolie burns a bunch of meter on shiny Incan gold'.
Wait, Four Devas? Is that some Japanese thing? I'm literally playing March of the Black Queen reading a thing about a different 4 Devas here as that comes up. That was freaky. Ogre Battle and God Hand same universe confirmed.
Oh God(Hand) you guys brought up my biggest problem with DMC4, you only fight the best boss once.
I did not expect a fly man Beelzebub thing.
25:00 Hey Helios from Bakugan.
Please do Double God Hand fight. Pleaaaase PLEASE! PEPE PLEASE!
Okay. We are really starting to reach the point where Woolie's refusal to weave is getting ridiculous.
Has woolie forgotten to check for health around the room?
Not being absolutely sure I saved moments after saving was born from losing save files to siblings overwriting them and being forced to use slots farther down the list.
I thought that Beelzebub was about to say go to the Dagobah system.
Just finished this game for the first time.
My defenses were impregnable.
My style was impetuous.
I Dragon Kicked everyone's ass into the Milky Way.
I am Alexander the Great.
I wasn’t actively playing for the PS1 era, but I do paranoid doubles saves all the time. I don’t know what the cause would be for this compulsive saving
them kicks at the beginning😆
This music is very Shantae.
I was thinking the same thing!
Up next: Bushido Brown
Yes, if you want to pick up a fly, for whatever reason, draw circles with your finger infront of it, and it will watch your finger and get discombobulated enough for you to just grab it.
9:30 Woolie never did learn to front dodge and sidestep....
Nice! I love it!
I JUST figured out who that old demon guy in the purple suit sounds like... the fucking old ass sith lord from the star wars movies, lol. Up untill now I was like, "This guy sounds so FUCKING familiar whos he remind me of?!" and it JUST now hit me, lol.
23:11 so he's actually the bouncer in the casino who's guarding the 3 chest there. Fun fact, you can actually fight him early on when you try to punch the girls working there. he'll teleport you to a cage and fight you. i can't remember if your life/god trigger/ orbs stays low after he whoops your ass, it must probably. i never beat him so i don't know what happens if you win.
Cant believe Pat said GHs OST was bad. Its fucking great.
As someone whose first console was a Wii, being paranoid about whether or not you saved is not exclusive to people who played the n64 and ps1
I got really frustrated when they didn't get stinging bee.
Rip
*Sees tower* We Game of Death now?
*Enters tower and its a series of boss levels* Yeah we Game of Death now!
Box Tank! You have the right way of thinking my friend.
I was thinking it was persona three.....
Kitty Spam man of wealth and taste though you are, *GET OUT.*
Hey Woolie, tip for your second playthrough- when you do a pummel/stinger/etc, ALL of the face buttons count, not just circle. Mash the fuck outta the right side of your controller.
Has "ballbuster" even been used once this playthough?
Pat hates Tony Tony Chopper : confirmed.
