Dragon Age 2 gets bonus points for giving you a family, then taking them away too :s
SmevMev Fuck
Elf origin had your bretrothed murdered on your wedding day.
SmevMev Dwarf noble had you banished from the underground, one of your brothers killed and the other one in your spot.
Elf origin only kills the bride's betrothed, the groom's betrothed survived. The groom gets to invade the estate, the bride is already there.
In all my Dragon Age 2 play throughs, except for that one time where I played as a mage and the wrong sibling died, Bethany Hawke survives. Gray warden or tower mage, Bethany was not a romance option
+Joe Nesvick It's always based on your class--if you're anything but a mage, the warrior brother (I never played as a mage, so I never bothered to learn his name) dies. If you're a mage, Bethany always dies. But...why would Bethany be a romance option?? She's your sister!
I mean...you're not THAT noble that you get to romance your sister...and sadly she doesn't appear at all in DA:I.
Patient:"Help me doctor, I'm dying".
Jane the doctor: "Put him in a bag of uncooked rice and he'll be fine".
When you realize that the reason Varric’s nose it crooked in Inquisition is because Cassandra hit him in the face with the book in DA2
It was a thick book. Then it got stabbed. It was innocent, Cassandra, you monster! ;~;
"There's one thing you don't have! ...Skin..."
*RUclips cuts to skincare commercial*
Nice
"Charging into Dracula's castle, like it's housing a 2 for 1 sale on silver hair extensions." Quote of the day 😂😂😂😂
In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Ezio starts out with Altaïr's armor and weapons (strongest in AC2). Then, after the first mission, every weapon and piece of armor is smashed in a cannon barrage, and Ezio has to start back from nothing (AGAIN) and buy weak weapons and armor so he's not totally defenseless. Basically the same thing happens in Revelations, where he gets surrounded by hundreds of grunts and captured, so I guess they took his armor before attempting to hang him.
So You say AC basicly NFS,In every game You get the best equipment(car),then You have taken away from You about 15 mins later.Man that's why I start to hate Need For Speed series.
@@norbertoszi6812 I started to hate NFS after Mosted Wanted came out Most wanted on PS2 was the last good decent Need For Speed game sadly EA is but a shell of the great company it used to be
@@norbertoszi6812 and I do believe that in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 you dont start off with the best cars in the game same as NFS underground and underground 2 NFS High Stakes and many many MANY more NFS games before EA turned it into a shit show
@@bluehornet197 I think I have that game, if you'd like to purchase it.
1min of silence for the crossbow we never got in AC1
But it's not their fault. It was not invented then
I first thought "Why did Animal Crossing get crossbows?
ZapDragon so that you can overthrow the evil dictator known as Tom Nook.
@@zapdragon5942 ok I'm sick of people being like "haha AC means animal crossing" when most gamers agree AC means Assassin's Creed
Every single throw-away piece of technology in a Call of Duty game.
"Oh shit we're being over-run! Quick, pull out the massive flying remote controlled doom cannon and wipe out all of our problems! Good job, we're in the clear now! Now put it away and never look at it again that was your one chance!"
I don't understand what Alex Mercer's black-octopus-tentacle powers have to do with the picture of the rather pleasant-looking middle class family man you showed us there, Luke.
took me a bit to get that but when i did i was lawling XD
It’s funny because dads can’t have tentacle arms.
I feel like Jane is more likely to put people in hospital than heal them when they get there
Darren Thorpe, I understand...
OMG! That crack on Cole being drained out of his power and in the water.
"Put him in this bag of uncooked rice. He'll be okay in a few days."
Hilarious!!! That's super brilliant funny!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
03:31 As a Steven Universe fan, I love the fact that you say Alucard's pockets are empty while the screen says he's holding a Lapis Lazuli.
Very appropriate!
It's probably best that you didn't keep that unbelievable power. With great power comes great responsibility, and who wants a game about unbelievable responsibilities? You'd end up spending all of your time making sure everything went as smoothly as possible for your less-capable (if not outright idiotic) companions instead of doing anything fun. It would be just like an escort quest!
The entire world needs your help... I'll just mark it on your map.
Timothy McLean is it bad that I think a game about "with great power comes great responsibility" could actually be REALLY fun if done right? I can't be the only one...
Timothy McLean fallout 4 in a nutshell.
wot
I rather have fun breezing through a game than barely managing. Because I don't try to be impressive, I try to have fun.
Honestly I hate it more when a game doesn't give you the best stuff until the final boss and has no post game. Dragon Age II for instance... you don't get all the champion gear from the intro until there's almost nothing left to do. ;-; I wanted to look cool longer than that. D:
Infamous second son
Fable 1
@@churchboy4609 Um, you get Neon as your second ability.
I had always found it strange that video games not only give you a taste of real power and take it away, but a lot of times you'll never be that powerful again. I know a challenge is always fun to have, but it's also nice to feel like all that leveling you do is actually having an effect instead of feeling like you're leveling just to remain competent.
Best horseman of the apocalypse?
The Terry Pratchett version of death.
Or the Terry Pratchett version of Kaos (aka Mr soak)
Do not worry, Jane. I assure you there are doctors out there who envy what you're doing now. Because even if you don't deliver CPR or inject people with adrenaline, you can bet you're helping them just as well : by giving them a smile, and with it a reason to keep going. Let the guys in white jacket take care of physical health : you are just as good when it comes to maintain what's left of our sanity. What's more, it's a fact that joy helps to keep you alive and well, just like an apple a day. So don't cringe in front of the practitioners, because you just might be one of them...
From a medical student, here is a big thank you for those videos you keep giving us. Ciao.
Why Octodad? He's just a normal guy, he definitely doesn't have any tentacles. I don't get that joke.
Let's just say... don't make him angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry...
Kupalan I dunno
his Dauther claims he's an... octopus or something
Yeah. He's completely normal, just look at how flawlessly he moved around.
Kupalan As a wise man (?) once said...
"I have no idea what weapons Workd War III will be fought with. But World War IV will be fought with tentacles."
Yeah what? His locomotion is so smooth. So graceful.
Basically any game that starts you out with having all of your abilities / weapons, then takes them away as part of the plot so you have to spend the whole getting them back.
So basically the whole point of the video?!
Metroid :D Dunno which one it was but it was for GC
Why does my mind go to maple story like right away. Fuck man
@@irimac1806 Metroid Prime
Best horseman of the apocalypse! Mike!!!
2:22 Most people think of Star Wars when they think of Mark Hamill, but I think of the Joker. 😂
Same
Ellen's giggles is one of those strange things that you don't realise you miss until it's not there anymore... :(
with great power comes... the risk that gods on high will strip it from you. D:
side note, the sound that jane made for :D was adorable.
Lord of the Rings Online's High Elf intro springs to mind here. Although you have basic weapons, you are one-shotting orcs, Goblins and Easterlings in the Battle of Dagorlad. After encountering the Witch King, you are returned to Imladris at level 1
Jane nearly says the same line as all those raiders in Fallout 3 "call the doctor, we got a bleeder". Jane has been mixing with the wrong crowds
A check of the models used also shows that, in the "white lie" Dragon Age 2 origin, Bethany's "described by Varric" as being a lot bustier than she is for the rest of the game.
The "Pop him in a bag of uncooked rice" comment destroyed me 😂
2. "You do know Alucard is just my name spelled backwards right?" (TFS)
How about a list of times you literally beat Death?
Stuff like Dante's Inferno, etc
literally every Castlevania.
God of war ghost of sparta,god of war 3 yeah
I would say nine lives perk in pay day 2 getting that perk to even activate means you were the next prophet of legend
Alex Anhalt yeah lol like in shadow of mordor
Really Jane? 10cc of gauze?
okay then...
*making liquid gauze
I'll have you know, this video got me into darksiders.
i have played the og Darksiders ( havent finished it yet ) and i know that feeling of uLTIMATE POWER FOR 2 GODDAMN MINUTES
Darkspawn toilet paper? Surely that's one of the worst, if not the worst, way to get darkspawn taint.
Only if you're having an open wound somewhere. If I remember it correctly, darkspawn taint is only acquired through blood.
I don't know whether to be impressed or uncomfortable. Congratulations.
Can't believe Mike let Luke do the cars bit
Assassin's Creed - Black Flag, when you got to steer Blackbeards ship.
They seem to do that a lot in Assassin's Creed. It happens in Brotherhood as well.
Also AC:oddesssey, at first you play as leonidas, after that you play as either his children
@@sheeeshmaster6418 grandchildren*
@@sheeeshmaster6418 Really doesn't take long to get back to that power.
Dragon Age 2's gameplay generally makes me feel powerful. I love the gameplay, for some reason. It's just so flowing... Doesn't matter that I can't go through darkspawn like toilet paper.
In prototype you lost your powers twice
#jarielislame taveras i said that in the last video
alas
no mention
it's a hard life being helpful
Maybe they can't mention you until they figure out how to pronounce your name.
#jarielislame taveras and still the game failed to challenge you:(
Sableagle gffffffgffzffffffdffsffgf
Hey, c'mon games, where'd our SWEET POWERS go?! :( Following our round-up of games that start you off with insane abilities then snatch them away, here are your picks of more titles that do EXACTLY THAT. Enjoy!
Until today I was unaware that toilet paper could go through darkspawn almost as fast as a superhero.
Yes... maybe the Bakers took them away to make some ... ahem ... cake... well now you know why the RE7B characters cannot be killed most of the time.
Outside Xtra Why not a list of videogame villians that tried to bring you to the dark side.
First my comment is mentioned in an oxbox video,then a few months later my comment is mentioned in an oxtra video :).Why dont you just hire me guys and save us both the trouble :D! *wink*
PS:next time you mention my name in a video,emphasize my surname on the first 'i',not the 'e'!Looking forward for the next video!!
What about the end of Resistance 2 when you gain the power to make Chimera explode, until the game ends?
Or God of Wars 2 and 3 where Zeus, or the River Styx, steals your power?
Or the beginning of Pokemon XD where you're using an overpowered Metagross and Salamence in a fight, only to realize that you're in a simulation?
Or when you temporarily got Seymour as a partner against Sinspawn Gui in Final Fantasy X?
what about the force unleashed? Ok you switch characters but you start playing as Darth freakin Vader with maxed abilities and then you are just his apprentice
Johnny K that... that was in the original video
Except you can't zap enemies to death, which is a bummer frankly. :(
and u only have a fraction of the combos and u cant even do a double jump. not to mention ur WALKING THE ENTIRE TIME. its badass yeah, but still annoying and slow as fuck.
Johnny K you go from being able to rip trees out of the ground, to only just barely being able to pick up a bag of crisps
Lmao nah best example of this is shadow of the colossus when you literally get to become a colossus then you die
"yeeesh... have you tried telling her that you're a doctor?"
That made me subscribe. Congrats.
A bag of uncooked rice? In the ocean? That's so salty, Jane.
Hailstormand I Know Im Late But Its Damn Too Much
hi outside xtra! I hope you guys have a great day! :)
Thanks! :) Right back atcha
Outside Xtra waaaah I didnt expect a reply! thank you so much!
The Ciri playable moments in the witcher 3
I would limit them to the ones from the Kaer Morhen siege and so forth, before that the Ciri parts are awful
Somehow I am glad I only read the books. Ciri aint weak, the breeding started hubdreds or thousands of years ago just so that one would be born qith the power/s shes got o_O
@@irimac1806 but geralt it the weak part
Grandmaster urcine armor plus the right build makes geralt an unkillable god.
I love how Jane chose to read ":D"
"Haah" = Happy Smile Noise
The comment section always knows. Always.
+Nicholas Cross
You underestimate my power!
The castlevania one actually had a glitch that you could use to circumvent death jacking all your stuff. You had to finish the intro level a certain way, have your name something special so yo ugot a certain stat upgrade/downgrade, then you had to get thrown straight through deaths room. but the sad thing was that if you ever went back to that room, death would still take your stuff.
It's not a glitch. It's also only available during a luck mode play through. Gotta drop your defense as low as you can and get attacked by a worg so the knock back sends you flying through the room Death is in.
If you ever go back he steals your shit.
HelljumperXODST that’s hilarious. Glad it was intended
I only watched this for SOTN. xD
Alucard did start with great items however halfway through the game you are already an overpowered powerhouse stomping through everything anyway.
Pokémon XD: Gale of darkness. You start the game using a salamence one of the strongest and coolest Pokémon at lvl 50 against a metagross.
But after using earthquake two times, it turns out to be a simulation and you start with your regular non-dragon lvl 10 eevee
Drakeon?
"skin" lol death got burned! And he can't even feel it properly since he doesn't have skin to burn
That guy's a gangster? His real name is Clarence
Possibly the best known gangster ever, Alphonse Capone... just sayin'.
And Clarence lives at home with both parents
Well, the original mafia were very family oriented, ya know?
And Clarence parents have a real good marriage
This guy don't wanna battle; he's shook. Cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
Ironically, for the last race, the cars were switched. I used the Mustang to beat the BMW.
Then I continued using almost every other car I had because they were all better than the BMW...
@John Smith Either Need For Speed Carbon or Burnout Revenge. That's the top of my list anyway
The BMW is the best car in the game bar none. No other even comes close to it.
The opening of Chaos Legion. Life is a party and Thanatos is your own personal bouncer, until Delacroix breaks him up into tiny pieces anyway.... Best 10 minutes ever.
Ah, Symphony of the Night... I had the Collector's Edition of that. Lent it to a mate and he stood on the case and lost the soundtrack CD and art book. Look it up on ebay to see why I was so annoyed.
BJGvideos No, I just simmered in a stew of rage. He's too good a friend to lose over money. Even if it's a constantly increasing sum of money.
yeah what BlueDiamond said. way to steal my advice btw Diamond.
Shiny Shaman never give friends limited edition or ultimate or whatever
What about that super cool sword you make in Sunset Overdrive that got nerfed.Then the game even jokes about it. RIP overpowered sword
One of the most memorable ones I remember is Kingdom Hearts II when you got the fully leveled twin blades (Final form) for one battle, just long enough to fall in love with how smooth and fun it is...then you aren't Roxas anymore, and Sora has also lost all his abilities from the first game. Thanks Castle Oblivion. Now you spend the rest of the game trying to collect the strong keyblades, build up your drive to use it as long as possible, and get everything you need to use the form well.
tbh it went a step farther for me: kh2 was my first kh game: i got to sora and went "hey i kinda like roxas better, can i use him later instead?" only for my friend to go "ah no, sora's the main character of the series."
You forgot little nightmares, where at the end, when six(the girl in the yellow hood) eats the ghost lady and becomes super powerful, but because it was the end, it only lasted like 30 seconds
Yes power and zapping are my specialities, how did you know?
Sims 4. You begin with 20,000 simolions, only to have about 23 when your finished making a bare-ably livable 5x5 space. I was trying to save my money!
3:40 Good thing Death really has no skin, otherwise this burn would hurt for all eternity.
Unless my memory's flawed, DA2 does that again with Varric, I believe when he goes to his brother's house. No?
YOU STILL HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT WHEN THEY NEUTERED MY NUCLEAR SWORD IN SUNSET OVERDRIVE!!!
I WAS BASICALLY SWORD WIELDIN JESUS
Super Adamska 64 I dub thee... Excalamune!
kingdom of alamur playthrough!
Luke playing and Ellen teaching all the advanced stuff. Perferct!
"Save all your green and blue loot! You'll want them for their components once you have your blacksmithing ability high enough to salvage them for parts!"
***** Depends on if you're looking for specific parts. Crit boosting components are quite rare (vs. elemental damage parts) and aren't sold by many vendors so I wanted to save as many of them as I could for my mage/rogue.
Besides it's not like you're ever really low on money anyway, given how often unique and legendaries drop.
daniel minnaar an underrated game that was fun and needs to be brought back
KoA is an example of why producers don't want to sink too much into a game. The game was great, and sold well. It'd probably have been profitable enough for a sequel if the development cost had been half as much. But it wasn't.
I have watched every one of these videos and BOY am I happy to see Infamous 2 addressed FINALLY ❤️
Automatically upon seeing the title and I thought of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night... Awesome for including that! ^_^
A bit old school, but what about KOTOR2? You spend most of the game turning your mates into badass Jedi, only to end up without any of them, & with only a floating tennis ball as your companion option for part of the final level.
God Assassin's Creed Brotherhood made me scream. Full equipped and then out of nowhere Ezio "forgets" ALL OF HIS STUFF
VespertheGamingViking he doesnt forget, he didnt have time
It's not about time, the armour was smashed by the canonball shot and the roof crashing on it
I'm surprised that your DA2 example didn't include Varric's imagine spot in chapter 2.
There was also an Ultima game where you got off the boat in the beginning with SUPER awesome equipment only to be struck by magical lightening and have it all mysteriously vanish FOREVER!
I am "sick" from school today
No spring break?
Andrew Robbins I have break
Andrew Robbins you related to someone named Baskin by chance?
What is this spring break?????
Cuan Lewis end of term holiday
I know these guys only do games, but imagine if they did tv shoes for this question, then staracream would definitely be here ( from the 90s tv show if you didn't know )
Tv shoes? Shoes?
When I saw the title I though of the Leviathan fight in Final Fantasy XV
Lots of genuinely funny lines in these videos--"Have you tried telling her you're a doctor?"
what about sunset overdrive when u first forge Excalimune
I'm a simple woman. I see Hawke, I click.
Chell Ray imma simple man, I see pretty girl I click
@@neb1006 lol, same.
Though I love Hawke
12:52
And I came to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubble gum
This is not exactly timely but the last frame of the video is actually a really nice picture of Luke!
7 Times You Tasted Incredible Power For Like, Two Minutes... last video of this i paused at a very awkward moment, the dirty minded ones of you all will understand.
chris hatter i understand and btw cute cat
Glad to know i'm not the only polluted mind out there, and thank you her name is Mingo (original thought she was a boy)
Does your cat have a sibling called Fanty?
Oh dear God...
Emperor_Exodus
Or just happened to have a different, and might I just add, subjective, sense of humour.
What's noteworthy about need for speed is, when you drive the "best car in the game", when you look at the numbers that thing is slow as shit. Even in the very last mission it won't go past 200 km/h. Although your opponent was able to get it to at least 300 just 10 seconds before that when you had to race against it -.-
Yeah, if I remember correctly, it was the only top car whose handling indicator was at half
i never understood why i couldnt upgrade the car either (if its stats arent max anyway) and i ended up sticking to the cars i had before unlocking that car because they where simply better on all areas
i'd say that one race from Jak X where you cant use items fits well on this vid, but that one race was actually really fun and nerve racking
Blades of Time where you build up to becoming a dragon for the entire game only to sacrifice your power a few minutes later 😭
I fucking love sarcastic female hawke. best character ever XD
Which is why I’m playing her. She just drops the jokes when she’s, say, trying to reassure a crying father about his missing daughter because she’s not a bitch like that.
I don't think Conquest is a horseman of the apocalypse. It's Pestilence.
1Fastpaced Hm, neat. I guess I was incorrect.
Also you didn't need to say it twice, I could understand you the first time. Repeating it makes you sound like a bit of a dick.
1Fastpaced I didn't google it, because I assumed I was correct. It's called making a mistake, it happens
"Anima: Gate of Memories". You kick ass for the first hour or so and then you lose everything.
In watchdogs 2 one of the final missions have you controlling a spider robot that has pretty much infinite health and attack damage.
No "God of War 2"? You get all the powerse of a god which you worked so hard for in the last game just to be tricked into putting all of it into a magic sword that comes from the sky.
10 cc's of gauze...
That Rice Bit was the only bit I laughed at. But I died.
This is a really good feature to have in a game in my opinion especially if you're going to be deciding down the road what powers you want to use. You use them first make the decision before you actually pick what you're going to use first.
What about dishonored 2, in that you have all the powers of an empress only to be usurped.
You don't lose powers...
And you can play as Corvo, not just Emily
@@emlynselene1096 And if I'm right, you don't have any of your old powers when you play as Corvo either.
I am surprised final fantasy 15 isn't in this list
boomy gull same
leviathan fight. nuff said.
“...tethers you to sadistic babysitter, the Watcher (voiced by Mark Hamel)”
Dude! That’s more of a blessing than a curse! Who WOULDNT wanna be forced to MARK DANG HAMEL?!
Fight against Mother Brain's second form in Super Metroid.
They used my comment!
Do they not realise how much their spoiler list spoils their own video....
It's the spoiler paradox.
It's so annoying, I have to look away during their spoiler list before the video is spoiled. If I know what games are gunna be in your video it takes out all the enjoyment!
What about RuneScape? More specifically during the quest "While Guthix Sleeps". In it you are fighting over a mystical object called the Stone of Jas which when touched a second time boosts all combat stats to 255. This lasts during the last fight in the quest against Tormented Demons and the stats are reset afterwards. Can't even go out exploring with the boosted stats as they get reset when outside the fight area.
for anyone reading this: heres 2 examples from saints row 3:theres a missile launching device briefcase thing, and a thing that "paints" an area and drops a few missiles, in the missions you first see them (near the start and near the end) it seems really badass and useful but when you use it outside the missions the areas are too large for it to matter
Chaos Legion?
You start with commanding Thanatos wrecking the shit out of the enemy minions, but soon your arch rival broke it into pieces and hence you are pathetically weak that the previous minions can now easily pay back on your @$$.
Finally someone mentions Chaos Legion! Miss that game.
Lightning in Dark Souls until it got nerfed.
I love that my first thought when reading the title of this video was in fact, NFS Most Wanted LOL
You were a complete badass. In AC1 I LOVED THAT GAME
