THANK YOU BEN FOR HAVING ME
RIP RAMEN NOODLES
Its clearly R-ah-mon
@starwalk2k you are really funny I would love if you made videos I would definitely watch them and thank you for being part of the video much love.
Honestly, I think you two work well as a comedy duo. Just up to Ben if he'd be willing to share his channel.
Crossover comment moment.
"It's following us"
"That's preposterous!"
Ferris Wheel * Makes a sharp turn, following them *
"...huh..."
That ferris wheel wanted to catch some bodies fr fr
@@LastSailorOftheDeadSky "SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE IS PUTTING THEIR FREAKING NOSE ON SOMEONE ELSE'S BUSINESS... GET READY"
@@valleyard8674 "Oh dear me uhhh... Quick contradiction NO."
*SKIDADLES AWAY*
I love the Layton is illiterate joke so much
Because he absolutely is with how much he requests Luke read things for him
"They also arent sure of who bruno is because no one talks about him" OKAY I SEE YOU
I’m surprised no one started singing “We Don’t Talk About Bruno.”
👀
No, but seriously. Bruno is the only one who didn’t get a happy ending. They’ve basically left him there by himself to just.. fix the same robots for the rest of his life without any real purpose. Am I the only one who find this kind of effed up?
that product placement was top tier
best product placement ever!
Poor Simon
SIMON NOOOOOO
I do love the carnival wheel bit
It's always an annoying thing that people don't, jump to the side whenever something is chasing them, but they do here, just a neat 90 degree turn-*oh shit it's actually chasing them!*
And I never realised the fear of a round rolling object chasing you like it has a vendetta until now, I wish more series did this that's hilarious!
32:15 the weight puzzle is actually a somewhat well known mathematical puzzle that I briefly studied in uni.
So because there’s only one coin that’s lighter and the rest are the same there’s an algorithm you can construct that is essentially a fool proof flow chart as no matter which weight it is you’ll always be able to find the awnser in a certain amount of weights.
The general gist being to split the groups into 3 and compare group 1-2 and then the lighter and then using that info to rule out all possibilités.
For this puzzle in particular with three weighing opportunities on the scale you can have up to 27 coins and it’s still solvable and for 4 tries you can have 81.
(It’s called just the balance puzzle)
Congrats to Ben for making the ONLY GOOD Gamer Supps ad
Mista gg’s ads are top tier
Dude... Badger.
@@ShinigamiSparda oh yeah his are great too
@@ShinigamiSpardathe one in halo reach video is the best imo
I love how Ben called Ramon anything but Ramon...
Who Ramon are you talking about Rockabilly
Ramon? Are you talking about Railway?
ramon?? you mean ra ra rasputin?
Ramon? You mean red-dead redemption 2?
Ramon? Don't you mean Ronald Mcdonald?
You know, your channel might be my favourite that I found last year.
Your Strange Man ANthology is actually my favourite background video for gaming atm
same here, for both parts of this comment
Couldn't agree more
I really like the type of games he covers, Ben and his friends inputs make it twice as enjoyable
I forget what video introduced me to him, but he truly is a gem he never makes a bad or even boring video
I was just eating an orange, and "Red Dead Redemption 2 enters the building" caught me completely off guard
Funnily enough, my experience with ace attorney and professor layton was the opposite of yours. Professor Layton is one of my favorite childhood games and I became an ace attorney fan after I played the crossover
Me too bro 👊
Same here!
Hell yeah same!
Yeah !
god i love professor layton, i was always playing the diabolical box when i was younger
The last puzzle always tore my heart to bits 😭
That sword fighting is so goddamn epic… and the *music* during it! Absolutely my favorite moment in the game.
I really want them to make an HD collection of these Professor Layton games for modern consoles like what Capcom did with Ace Attorney, these puzzle adventure games are great, and it would be awesome to see the animation in a higher definition.
The og trilogy has hd mobile ports with additional cutscenes
They have mobile ports which tbh work the best considering the drawing controls
That sponsor segment was glorious, I loved every second.
The art style for the Layton games are just so charming, everyone is so expressive and all the locations have such a cozy feel
I am so excited to see a full Professor Layton series from someone fresh to most of the entries. Level-5 did a superb job with these games, with the original trilogy being quite the highlight. This doesn't really matter for now, but there is a good Professor Layton movie cannon to the story of the second trilogy (PL and the Eternal Diva). It's still not completely necessary for having a grasp of that story's plot, but the dub was free on RUclips last I checked if you're interested.
I literally just watched this movie again for like the 8 th time last night. It’s so good. It can help give new players an understanding of the characters and who they are if they don’t want to play the games. Which I’m okay with because I’ll be happy if ANYONE gets into professor layton whether it’s the correct order of play or not
I cant believe "we dont talk about Bruno" applies in Professor Layton
The amount of serotonin that rushed me when I heard my favorite RUclipsr mention my favorite video game series, Ace Attorney, was insane.
The Ace Attorney games are one my special interests, and it made me so happy to hear you mention them!
Anyways, amazing video, as always! :)
PROFESSOR LAYTON STYLE
I've adored Professor Layton for years. Funnily, I had a very similar block as you and Star- though I first played it back in like 2010 so I only played the first and didn't make it to the next several games until the last few years. Beautiful games with very touching stories. Unwound Future in particular really got to me.
32:20 hey, I played that puzzle back when I did my playthrough and one piece of information i had going in is that it is a VERY old kind of puzzle, and is NOT trial and error. You can use logic solve them consistently.
For the example shown, there are 8 weights, 7 have the same weight and one is lighter and you need to find the light one with only 2 uses of the scale.
The solution is to do 3 on one side and 3 on the other:
If they balance, weigh the remaining 2 to find the light one.
If one side is lighter, pick two of those to weigh. If one is lighter, it's that one. If both are the same, it's the third one.
The alternate variation I saw had a weight that was different, may be lighter or heavier, and the only difference was you have a third turn to compare with a weight you know is average.
Diabolical Box was my first video game I owned 14 years ago. I love this franchise so much and can't wait for the rest of the videos to come out
The weight puzzles aren't trial and error. There's a way to do each of them first try.
Which is literally why it’s a puzzle. “Trial and error” and “puzzles” are completely incompatible. If you’ve resorted to former, you’ve ruined the latter.
Professor Layton is my favorite series ever made. Its puzzles are engaging, its characters are charming, its settings are fascinating, and its stories are captivating. And it's the series I turn to when I really, REALLY need to cry, because these stories turn the heart to *mush.* You've completed the tamest one, now prepare to have your heart destroyed 4 or 5 more times. Seriously, if you have a soul, you are *not* prepared for Unwound Future and Azran Legacy.
I never knew the story of Professor Layton, so this was a really fun video!
-also can’t believe you got scott the woz for this-
YESSS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
(one adorable detail you missed is that Flora's golden apple mark only appears when she laughs; the Baron wanted to leave his fortune to someone who was able to make his daughter laugh ToT)
I got into the Layton games because when I was a little kid, my mom had printed out a sheet of ‘educational’ children’s games. I didn’t even get them as a little kid! I just internalized that they existed until I was older. Thanks for introducing me to such a fun puzzle adventure game, random early 2000s mom blog!
The animation is incredible for only being a DS game
I agree.
Professor Layton and the Curious Village was one of the first games I ever got on the DS, and it was my main introduction to puzzle/mystery games. I've played almost every game in the series and I'm so excited for the new one that was announced last year!
Me and my siblings bonded over this series so much!!!! It's a core part of my childhood that I'll always hold near and dear to my heart. So happy it's getting some attention!!!
Love the video, though I'm also seeing you guys attribute several puzzles to "trial and error" and couldn't help thinking "skill issue." (Not the rush-hour sliding block puzzle though - that can go straight to heck, and you are forgiven for hating those.) The weight puzzle is actually one of "the classics" in the realm of logic puzzles (so's the raft puzzle), and what its variants are *actually* asking of you is to figure out a *guaranteed* method of determining the right weight, which does indeed exist - actually hurt to see you say it was one of your least favorites. The angry neighbors one also has a few graph-theory tricks you can apply to determine where certain neighbors *have* to pass through, what spaces only one neighbor *can* pass through, etc. (And speaking of graph theory, the "shapes you can/can't draw with one line" puzzles also serve as another "classic" that focus on exactly that (if you want to solve them quickly without any tracing), focusing on parity in the number of "edges" each "node" has and what that means for the necessary number of line starts and ends.)
And yeah, the math puzzles early on in the series can be annoying, but I like that many of them are really just asking you to find a sneaky way of saying one line/area is actually the same as another line/shape that's much easier to calculate the value of or even has said value stated outright (like (in the first math puzzle you showed, as an example) line AC actually having the same length as hypothetical line BD (i.e. the already-provided radius)). Or, to use the yellow and blue flag example, it becomes way more simple when you throw out the specific numbers for a minute and convert everything to fractions and just *visualize* the problem instead of mathing it. If it looks like you need trigonometry to solve a puzzle, there's a trick answer you're missing.
The Professor Layton series holds such a dear spot in my heart. I've listened to the live version of the Professor's Theme for hours.
I should have commented sooner, but I have to say I just love your video style. You're the first channel that made me login and sub to someone.
As for this video, I just...have so many memories flooding in. I remember my older sister getting this game when I was a kid. Mom and dad took the family to see the grandparents, and my older brother and I huddled around my sister to look at the story unfolding and to try to help with puzzles. This game holds so much nostalgia because of that. My sister never finished the game, but I pocketed it so my brother and I could beat it ourselves. I still have the game on my nightstand next to my 3DS.
The game has such a pretty artstyle too! I hope I can form a similar artstyle of my own someday.
Oh, OH. Oh I loved this and I really hope you guys do videos on the rest of the games! ESPECIALLY Unwound/Lost Future- that one's my favorite and I always love seeing how different people react to its story!
I love your videos because you always cover games that I haven't played but are super interesting. It was also great to see you interact with a guest. Star was great, especially for someone thats not a youtuber.
"One must always put a lady's needs first."
Layton would then proceed to completely forget about Flora and constantly abandon her on the side of the road(LITERALLY, in the case of the next game) despite the fact he is effectively her guardian. Level-5 games would then have the games after set before the original trilogy in order to replace her with an older, cooler lady sidekick.
Seriously no one gets f'd over more than Flora in the Professor Layton series. It's ridiculous how often she's just straight up abandoned by Layton because, much like the average Victorian gentlemen, he prefers little boys over girls.
Great video! Layton has been a big part of my childhood (even though I only played the first trilogy). And I'm glad to see a video of yours about the game.
Btw. Have you played Slay the Princess? Is a short and sweet horror visual novel that I like very much. I'm not asking for a video about it. But rather I just share it because it's such a great game.
PROFESSOR LAYTON IS ONE OF MY CHILDHOOD/FAVORITE GAME SERIES! I'm SO EXCITED that you covered this!!
It's always a pleasure to see new videos from you with guests! haven't finished the video yet but the sponsorship bit was GREAT, something about the usually monotonous (?) Ben whimpering was just hilarious. Mrrawr
One of my all time favorite series. Stoked to see you playing it!
I literally let out a sigh of joy when i saw the title of this video, professor layton series brings an unbelievable amount of nostalgia to me
The aesthetic of the game is so charming I really enjoyed watching the gameplay in this one. Both of you had some great comedic timing, so listening was pretty fun too
also that ad was gold 11/10
I've actually only played the 2nd and 3rd games, but they were a HUGE influence on the games I would play going forward. I don't think I would have picked up 999 if it wasn't for the professor.
My mother used to play these games on our DS. We found them a while ago and because of this video I decided to play it. I found it a great experience and want to thank you for it
Ben Again is at its best as a Co-op/guest channel and you cant change my mind. (Having more vibrant personalities to contrast Bens monotone disposition is great)
as a longtime fan of the layton series, i was thrilled when i saw the community post!! i hope you enjoy the series a lot :) i'm def looking forward to seeing the rest of the games covered
I swear with each video you post I like this channel even more. I found you because of indie horror rpg, but then I find out you also like Ghost Trick? and Professor Layton? and Ace Attorney?!? THOSE ARE ALL MY FAVORITE THINGS!!!! And your whole style of video is exactly what I love to watch. Top tier channel, easily one of my favorites
First grim fandango and then this gem! I love how you're giving out these hidden gems (for me). Always hooked with the content
BABE WAKE UP NEW BEN AGAIN VID
I’ve really been enjoying your videos! I always look forward to seeing what you’ll cover net :)
Seeing you guys play Layton is so nice, the franchise really is a gem. Hoping you guys get to experience unbound future to the fullest if you ever decide to play it
Thank You man I love the Professor Layton series I'm so glad you played through it was great to watch
Ahhh, I love this game and I'm so happy you covered it!!! and your sponser segments CONTINUE to crack me tf up!!! Hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
I adore the Layton series!!! I saw an ad for Last Specter one day and bought the game shortly after. Before even finishing the game I knew I had to get all the other games too!! I ordered them all and played them in order of the story, then eagerly awaited Miracle Mask and the games that would follow. Nothing hits as good as a Layton puzzle, and I’m so glad they’re continuing the series still!
I found Ben again(again) a few weeks ago just at the end of 2023 and have been watching every video he has I love this channel the editing is nice and not over the top it doesn’t try to make a joke every 2 seconds and it’s nice to put on in the background normally I hate when a solo channel has guest/friends join on a video but Ben’s friends are all nice and fun like him I really enjoy your work Ben and want more. Thanks amazing content as always Ben.
thats probably the first time an ad read actually made me chuckle
props to you
Thank you for the reminder of just how much Layton's theme slaps
can't wait to see you play through the rest of the series. looking forward to you sobbing your eyes out later on
So glad to see new faces on the channel! It was really nice for Star to invite Ben on for this video. Great video as always, Star 👍
I just been binging ur vids lmao
Excited to see more ^^
14:23 THE REFERENCE HAHAHAHAHA
I love the Professor Layton series. One of the few games I’ve played over and over and it never gets stale. Can’t wait for the new game to come out!
I’m sure someone has pointed this out already, but the ‘puzzle’ in the weight puzzles isn’t actually figuring out which one the is the lightest; evidenced by the fact there’s no set answer and it is randomized every time you hit restart.
Instead, the actual puzzle is figuring out the method that covers all your grounds, and allows you to figure it out Every. Single. Time. All of the weight puzzles can be solved without guessing, and the ‘real puzzle’ is figuring out how - not figuring out which weight it randomized to.
Basically asking you to formulate a plan/script for how to find it every time, which is incredibly satisfying once you see how to do it
Of course, CV isn’t without flaws, but I dont think the weight puzzles are one of them. Incredibly entertaining video, hoping to see you cover more layton games!
I love the Layton games so much ❤ Loved the video!
Yet another banger of a video, 10/10 content my dude!
Man, I have been a huge fan of Level-5 ever since their first game Dark Cloud, but I never got around to playing the professor layton games.
I absolutely love the Layton games!! I remember playing through all of them (except the goofy crossover game) as a young tween. I needed some help on a couple of the puzzles, but I got through them! I cried so much at the end of each of the games.
Professor Layton is a game series I still need to get into. Its on the list I swear
Always a good time when a Ben Again video drops! Have a lovely day!
Professor Layton Vs Phoenix Wright is one of my favorite games, mostly for the nostalgia. I also became aware of it through the Ace Attorney side of things, which led me to Professor Layton. I’m excited to watch this video!
Edit: Don’t ya just hate being chased by a ferris wheel?
It’s always a good day when a new layton video pops up in my feed!
Love the Layton series! The one with his daughter, Katrielle was a good game too and the anime series starring her is worth watching since Layton and Luke appear in it too in some episodes
Thete is always so funny about someone as prim and proper as the Professor. A proper english gentleman of great renown, getting held up in such high octane scenarios
I have played the whole series! Been looking forward to seeing your opinion!
Professor Layton is one of my all time favorite games. Its bonkers story was always part of the fun for me. Another excellent video!
My mom introduced me to this game when I was younger, and I got hooked on it. For a while now, my phone ringtone has been the puzzle song from the original game!
love your videos man, aways happy with the notification S2
Don’t forget to watch the movie, it’s surprisingly integral to the second arc.
Also Claudia is a male cat.
I cant wait for the next Professor Layton vid, this was GREAT
This is such a nostalgic game to me; I played Layton before I discovered Ace Attorney or the crossover. I hope you and Star do the rest of the Layton series!
You are in for an absolute treat with the Lost Future - heart breaking story but incredible at the same time
Ben nice to see ya alive
The weight puzzles are actually completely possible without guessing, the perfect solutions are really cool once you figure them out
Oh, is this gonna be a review series? Ooh, this is gonna be fun! I actually started with the second game, going back to the first later, but besides that I played each game as it came out. You’re gonna love this, and I’m gonna love hearing your thoughts.
I’ll understand if you don’t do a video on the Katrielle Layton game, though. We, uh…yeah, we don’t talk about that one.
holy smokes this was amazing, begging for more!!!!!
32:36 The Weight puzzles all have solutions to get the right number each time. Just because you didn’t found them doesn’t mean the „results are out of your hands“
4:15 adding onto this when you play SPOILERS
as young layton hes always super unsure and doesnt smile till the very last frame
32:15 THERE IS AN ENTIRE TED ED VIDEO ABOUT THIS RIDDLE
I haven’t seen/heard about professor layton in ages… this brings back memories
Me too 😁
played this just last month, absolutely loved it
I loved that Gamer Supps ad. I was caught off guard when I was watching lol.
This was great. I loved these games since I'm a kid, and I hope you'll cover the other games.
Star sounds likes a great guy
i dunno how i missed this video but now that im back on my professor layton kick and watching/reading as much as i can, its so nice others are finding joy in the series!!! i got into professor layton by seeing
buying and then playing the second prequel game; professor layton and the miracle mask and GOD TO SAY THIS SERIES IS CHARMING IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT i wanna get my hands on the rest of the games to play them myself, even tho ive seen playthroughs of them, i wanna dig into those puzzles
also i hate to tell ya ben, its ramon (rah-moan)
Professor Layton is my favorite series!! It got me into ace attorney actually shsjanfjsjf so excited for this
It’s always a good day when ben again uploads
OH I NEEDED THIS. MY COMFORT RUclipsR PLAYING ONE OF MY COMFORT GAMES (Well, Layton in general)
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS YAAAY THANK YOU
I first learned about the Professor Layton series through my dad. I saw him play a demo version of the game on the internet. He later played the first five Professor Layton games and watched the Professor Layton movie.
