Urgh, I'm cringing at the bleeding feet. Never before have I felt this bad for a video game character.
My Skyrim character: takes multiple stab wounds, multiple arrow shots, is lit on fire and blasted with freezing ice
Me: aw dang that's rough buddy
Sam Walkman: I'm gonna walk across this rocky outcrop barefoot
Me: THIS IS THE MOST AGONIZING THING I HAVE EVER BEEN FORCED TO EXPERIENCE I CAN FEEL EVERY STEP AND I WANT TO DIE
finally the Die Hard game we deserved
I think the only video game character I've ever felt bad for was that baby he carries around with him. Fuck the guys feet, he could walk on 1000 degree thumbtacks for all I care 🤷🏻♂️
I never knew about the bleeding feet but that could be useful in rain cause the ghosts (forgot the name) can't touch you cause of Sam's blood.
I am too
Ok, Gamechamp, but now deliver my mail to my house without a gun, shoes or a vehicle.
I might not live in an apocalypse, but I do live in Milwaukee.
*checks address again* I brought your package, but are you sure this isn't the apocalypse?
Garrett van de Gelder best comment😂 I live in Milwaukee too

"When are you going to release the other 2999 Game Champs from your basement?"
-A kind Patreon supporter, 2020
Daniel David FREE THE GAMECHAMPS
No, he's the 3000th Game Champ made, and the only one that works. The other 2999 Game Champs are failed prototypes, left to rot in storage.
@@Rumble_Pak oh, so it's another 182 blink situation? 🤷🏻♂️
@@Rumble_Pak I actually feel bad for Gamechamp1734. He almost succeeded.
When he decides to release the gamechamp army and take over the world
Why does Sam glitching down the hill make it look like he's dancing? It's too perfect.

This seems like a good enough time to learn the story of Death Stranding
norman readus and the funky featus carry a nuke and fight some edgy oc and a soldier man, thats the whole story for like 95% of the game
too bad that involves playing Death Stranding
basically you walk from point a to point b, that the whole story
@@milliondollarmistake that's the best part
@@deluxxyfan7tristanwood961 lol I love this
On any other channel, I'd usually skip or not pay attention to the patreon backers, but here I enjoy for how witty the names people come up with can be
Cheyenne Oliver at one point we had Gamechamp3000Sucks, and someone retaliated by making an account named Gamechamp3000SucksSucks
Don’t forget the dude who paid $5 to have Gamechamp say an unpronounceable gibberish word!
Lukeap1 which video was this?
@@porchugawhale9938 The pokemon damage-less run, and I think the captain toad one (either that or the pause-less shrine hyrule myths video)
Whether you liked it or not, we've stepped into a war against the Cabal
Cant remember if this is right but Ive heard this patron so much already
I love how you read the usernames of your Patreon supporters with a perfectly straight face, not acknowledging any of them.
We really need a blooper reel for the patreon reads, there is no way that always happens first try XD
@@chocobofangirl If we ask him for that video in his Twitch stream...
Edit: You can hear him have some reactions in the Pokemon no-hit run, only to the names that are random button-mashing on the keyboard.
She also reacts to any Patreon names which try to get her to promise things, mostly to clarify that they're just Patreon names.
Those patreon names get crazier and crazier with each episode of this.
Probably the only patreon name read I ever stick around for. It's too funny. It's almost become a subculture meme on its own
@@ZeroDividesByYOU Same, I stick around to hear wacky names and "get out of my house"
@@Aetherborn042 I just became a Patron so expect a pretty good name next episode ;)
No one can ever beat “whether we wanted it or not we’ve stepped into a war with the Cabal” it’s too iconic
Though “when will you release the other 2999 game champs in your basement” is a good contender
Sinead Thomas my personal favourites are the ones that're like "i paid five dollars to hear Gamechamp say x" like in the pokémon damageless run.
The big ones are no vehicles, no weapons, no PCC Structures, *no urination,* and no shoes.
What does not peeing do? 🤷🏻♂️
@@SoggyCoffeeAddict .
"Where is my pee pee?"
@@SoggyCoffeeAddict Nothing, peeing is completely optional. It only has a few minor benefits, one being that if you pee somewhere in the world a mushroom will grow in that place. Other players will see this mushroom and might want to pee in the same place to make more mushrooms. When enough mushrooms are made it will attract Cryptobiotes that you can collect, consuming them improves your resistance to timefall. Another use for peeing is that it wards off BTs (the monsters). Sam has unique DNA that is harmful to BTs and since his pee contains this DNA it can be used against them.
@@Diwasho So, not peeing hurts others more than themselves?
I have gotten confirmation that Gamechamp is too scared to do a damageless run of Animal Crossing: New Horizons
“No urinating”
“Carrying then as cargo is allowed”
Hmm yes I hold the piss
I should be going to bed, but then I see this video... sleep can wait.

Last time I was this early, Link was trying to beat Ganon with a mop!
Seeing that video come up in my feed after all of us in chat yelling at Champu to fight Ganon with a mop was the best.
@@logankrohn1472 The reason he didn't do it is because the glitch had not been discovered when he made the video.

I’ve not played death stranding yet so everything you said in the beginning scared and intrigued me.
Actually everything you said confused me what is this game.
Keyan Stoney Good. It’s really good.
Decent story, mediocre gameplay. If you can find it on sale for like 30 bucks somewhere go for it but it's not worth paying full price.
It's a hiking simulator.
Kinda in the vain of euro truck sim or delivering cargo in elite Dangerous. Watch skill ups review on it to get a good idea
@@Aphelion87 some people loved the gameplay though. It a love or hate sort of thing.
@@Cronicrisis fair enough. I can definitely see how some people can really enjoy it, more power to them. It's just not really my thing.
Playing Ludens by Bring Me The Horizon and Death Stranding by Chvrches while beating Death Stranding in a way that Kojima either completely did or did not anticipate is art in itself.
The run in short: Torture Sam by having him bleed and constantly trip on sharp rocks.
Alt title: Can we make a walking simulator, more of a walking simulator
There's a parody game called Walking Simulator on steam. It's free and very broken. I suggest u try
now this is a true walking simulator.
It’s the first strand type game

@@wrath_of_thrawn2163 yeah but this game is like 90% walking so it's more accurate than other games

Never knew I could beat up Cliff without alerting the skeletons, nice challenge.
TFW you’ve never even heard of this game in your life but you still watch the whole video because its a gamechamp video.
I understand not playing. But you've never even heard of this game? You live under a rock?
xholy_sm0k3s pretty much... heck i just found out a new Doom and Animal Crossing was about to come out because of the memes... :/
the only thing you missed out on by never hearing about this game is a cavalcade of memes about how no one knew what the hell it was about for years before it was released. i dont think anyone knows any more about what it is now tbh
@@glassphoenix9095 i mean you can play it
that's a very good way to find out
ketruB bold of you to assume i have money to spend on a AAA title
Your videos are always an immediate watch, you"re as amazing as a can of monster energy!
So you turned the ultimate walking sim into the ultimate bleeding foot sim
I got Breath of the Wild PTSD just from seeing the rain.
This is psychotic! I have attempted Ironman challenges before but as long as this game can be with everything I can't image attempting it with these extremes. Kudos for the attempt and sheer endurance.
I love how he recommends how to do his runs with detail as if we were ever going to do them.
Is this a challenge
I’m not going to try it but maybe someone else could....

Playing CHVRCHES's "Death Stranding" while playing Death Stranding. Beautiful.
That song is like honey go my ears
It's incredible
Such a good song
All of the music in the game is amazing
But Ludens tho...
Almost like it was on the soundtrack or something.
"Death Stranding but Sam Porter is amish"
Omg dude. Where was I when you were streming this?! Always hyped to see a new VG myths Champ, keep it up!
"Artist's interpretation of physics" was pretty good
I jokingly challenged you to do this while streaming this game! I'm so glad we had the same thoughts, because I wanted to see this so bad!
I feel bad for Sam for not being able to pee
This is my first video I've see of yours and gotta say I love your energy and content. Love the game too probably gonna replay it soon. Subbed👍
Wowee this is pretty cool.
HOLY SHIT IT'S THE REAL HIDEO KOJIMA!
Next time... make a better game
ZEYX from Rec Room No, my game is perfect. Please stop distracting me I must make Death Standing 2

"I can't function without pain!" - Gamechamp3000 2020
Really pleased to see you playing this game!!
"See that game that was (deliberately) made to be long and tedious? How about we make longer and more tedious."
-Gamechamp, 2020
I knew just about nothing about Death Stranding going into the video. It was so educational! I now know so much:
1) Your ultimate rival is a necromancer.
2) Your protagonist is so afraid of pack animals that he gets an adrenaline boost to run away from mules.
3) In the future, bullets are made of blood.
4) SHOES ARE FOR THE WEAK.
No one suspects gamechamp3000 when he plays a game
Even his boss music has phases
Great video. Your humor never disappoints, champ!
Here's a challenge: Can you beat Spore without manually entering the Creature Creator?
- Story-forced creators are okay, such as transitioning between phases.
- When you DO get forced into a creator, you're only allowed to use the most basic parts with the lowest stats.
- Dying does not allow you to make changes. You HAVE to go right back into the world.
- The challenge ends when you make it to the space age without altering your creature past the most basic parts you get while transitioning.
Ah yes, the best Strand-type game since Mario.
Why do trans people always go for the most god awful profile picture art on earth
@@alejandropulidorodriguez9723 Why do people like you always go for the dumbest complaints the world has ever seen?
You know they nailed it when you literally feel bad for the guy in the game. I mean, it hurt watching you torture the guy.
Here is an idea for a challenge: Knack without grabbing any relics(Relics that the game makes you grab automatically should not count)
I have an idea for a challenge, can you beat dead cells without weapons? Any and all weapons and subweapons are banned, the only offensive tool you have at your disposal is the ground pound, and if you wanted to make this challenge absolutley insane you could try to do it without picking things up, scrolls, items, weapons, necklaces, whatever. I hope you consider it, love your stuff
For a game involving lots of hiking and eventually falling, it really does look janky falling down things.
Watching a GameChamp video for content is great, but y'all, not gonna lie, I actually really love the Patreon names y'all come up with.
11:22 THAT's ME YAY
Congratulations
This is amazing I never played the game but this playthrough is admirable
I now just realized that no one donated him bits in the last 7 days, so i now have the number 1 spot on the leader board for bits
It literally makes me recoil watching the blood gauge drop while walking with no shoes. Even though it's not graphic at all and it's just some numbers on the screen, the context is just so horrible and it feels so real :(
Yeah genuinely most games dont make me feel this way but i feel really bad for Sam 😢
0:48 did you also make sure that you didn’t do that in real life too because if not mission failed
Oh man this is so amazing! This looked like a ridiculous let's play to watch
*ROCKMAN 3 DAMAGELESS BABY!*
When he kicks higs i just imagin his face has a fully blood footprint

Ways to improve: keep using great music in your videos. The videos themselves are already great, the music just made them better.
Do you know the name of the song in 6:40 by any chance?!

You should probably be asleep.
Wow, you took this to a whole new level, im truly amazed
VG Myths- Can you beat new super mario bros U without running?
Surely after a few days walking barefoot on pointy rocks Sam's feet turn into leather.

The Bell icon worked! Love these videos. :)
Release the gamechamps from your basement, they desperately want to intentionally be bad at video games
This comment will go unseen most likley but I love how quiet but barley noticeable the music is and it’s from this game as well I only realized it when ludens was playing Becuase I own the song since I went through literally the entire song playlist of the game since it was my fav game of the pandemic me and my bsf bridge linked and would help eachother make literally a network of zip lines
I see long walks in this video, didn't watch it yet all because too early
Jedi Fallen Order without the lightsaber
It’s the first strand type game
Still not as good as elephant stranding
8:05 Sam: I've got a gun that is used to kill things. What do i do with it?
Sam:YEET!
OK definitely the feet have gone enough pain you've gone too far having a feet nearly exploded blood is too far
Whether we wanted it or not we've stepped into a war with the cabal.
Gets me every time
I couldn't think of anything witty, so this is my comment.
Yo! This was great to watch unfold on stream!
Core Game Mechanic: *exists*
Gamechamp: No, I don't think I will
The funniest part of the video was "Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal".
Another awesome vid! Can’t wait for the next
you make the poor man walk with bleeding feet. what a monster

thank you for making this, omg, I LOVE YOUR VIDS
It was so fun watching you struggle with the first Cliff fight XD
In the Cliff section I wasnt paying attention as I was distracted by the CHVRCHES song in the background haha
Of course the skeletons don't hear anything, they have no ears!
I don't have this game or a PS4 for that matter, but I watched the video anyway because I love Gamechamp.
Hooray, new VG Myths!

i got goosebumps the moment when ludens started played
Such a good freakin song
FINALLY, another great episode!
to quote looney toons, this run is summed up as:
to trip, to trip, to trip, to trip, to trip it up and down...
to trip, to trip, to-trip, woah! tripit! trip! trippit! woops! trip! trip! trippit!
