That Early Access disclaimer at the start looks really ominous to me. I don't mean that I doubt the game will be finished; it's just that the wording makes me feel like the developers are plotting to take over the world. *THINGS WILL COME, THINGS WILL GO, AND THINGS WILL CHANGE. WE HAVE A PLAN.*
This channel's as old as Skyrim and you numbnuts still forgetting to turn your controllers on before the video starts is why I love this channel! Never change.
Their Michinama Skyrim vid is how I found these guys. I ended up watching more of their Michinama vids until I found out that they had a channel of their own in the description box. I wish I would've taken note of when I subbed and the number of subs that they had at the time. I've been enjoying their content for years, and I still don't understand over half of their references and jokes. Same goes for the fan base's references and jokes. Which is why I tend to stay silent in the comment section.
There’s Gang Beasts level of fighting competency. Then there’s Arena Gods level of fighting competency. The Zaibatsu fall in the middle of these two… more so to the Gang Beasts side, however.
Matt just randomly tea-bagging Pat and trying to figure out what to do and saying “Am I just fucking you?” Had me in sheer tears for five minutes, my stomach was in so much pain from laughing so hard
The Romans believed that the thumb held a lot of authority, which is why the term pollice comes from the Latin term for power. People got confused over the gesture due to the famous Pollice Verso painting. As to the actual turn of thumb used, it's mostly up for debate. Another fun fact, in the Olden Days, biting your thumb at someone was considered an equivalent to the middle finger- as referenced in Romeo and Juliet. *POLLEX!*
Roflcopter_launchpad 111 still is that way in the middle East that's why there are so many pictures of middle eastern children giving us solders a thumbs up
This game makes me wanna see Kratos go to Rome and see the off-color versions of the Greek gods. Kratos: "ZEUS, HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!" "Oh I'm not Zeus, my name is Jupiter." **Kratos let's out a long and tired sigh** Kratos: "We're leaving Atreus." Atreus:"But I wanna-" Kratos:**breathes in** *"BOI!"*
Part of my brain (read: all of it) is asking, can you pick up limbs and smack other players with it? If it's not there yet, developers... **waggles eyebrows**
Have we entered into the Platinum Age of SBF LPs? It sure feels like we have. So many good times had, so many laughs. It's funny how the little things in life can move mountains. I was on the verge of tears, wishing I could fade from existence earlier but now I have tears in my eyes from laughing at this LP. Thanks for making me feel better on a shitty day. Never stop, guys, never stop.
When you reached your hand to the bottom of this barrel, it went through the impossible space and started back at the top of the barrel, allowing you to always reach further towards the bottom.
The sword is likely a sica, a short sword used in the early ages of Rome and notably the Dacians. In the arenas, it found itself often used by thraex gladiators that get their name from the Thracians who also used the sword. Depicting an enemy of the Roman Empire, they were mostly used for reenactment matches, often fighting the Hoplomachus or Murmillo gladiators and acting as a popular heel foil for the latter. The shotel is a later weapon, originating in Muslin Northeastern Africa and is closer related to the scimitar family of sabers.
The increasingly homing thrown weapons wrapping around the screen are the best part. But the key question is, since the controller screen lists both right and left actions, can you hold two one-handed objects at the same time?
I'm glad a game finally properly portrayed the majestic ancient greek art of combat that was throwing your weapons into the black holes around the coliseum to cause them to infinitely fly through the arena while killing literally EVERYONE including the weapon's owner. It brings a tear to my eye, it does!
I saw a thing about this like matt read. The accepted form was thumb in the fist and to the side, which meant sheath weapon, while the other was something like thumb outside hand and hand down which was mercy kill I think. Been awhile since I watched it. I do remember a mural that basically said "Lets get naked and party" though.
The two hand motions to decide a warrior's fate in the Roman arena were the thumbs down, which meant to drop your weapon and spare the man, and thumb into your chest, which meant to finish him off.
I read that "thumbs down" meant to stick your weapon in the ground and let the opposing gladiator live while "thumbs up" would be the emperor pointing his thumb towards his throat as a gesture meaning "finish them off"
Can Billy please make an edit of this video, but just with all the "ohh" and "uhhh" and "wuuuuh" noises, with their varying degrees of bewilderment and mounting passion, please? For comedy purposes only, of course.
Thumbs up ment kill him and thumbs down ment he can stay on earth. It's changed in movies to make it easier to understand as we see up as a good thing.
Thumbs down means let the slave live, thumbs up means off with his head. The gesture is to the Emperor not the slave. BLOOD SPORTS! Also I think it'd be very odd for the Emperor to throw them back in shackles after that, being that a thumbs down could cause a riot. Also that happening in Roman arenas could be bullshit and they could have all been using wooden weapons. They used to have the greens vs the blues and it would decide politics. Thousands of people killed over some trite disagreement when a war general returned home one day and wasn't putting up with their protest in the stadium over sport/political games. Which is why the Olympics represent nations today...
The controls screen shows attack, grab and throw for both left and right. So I'm guessing you could pick up two one-handed things like sword and shield, and these bumbleboys just used the right side.
"I don't know how you get off when you're mounting him."
Pat, 2018
Guess he got stuck in
Can't believe they're gone love these guys
"Before the move even animates, the kill happens."
GAE...BOLG!
i guess I am kind of randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to watch newly released movies online?
@Riley Korbin i use FlixZone. You can find it by googling =)

It's just lacking
*WE ARE ANONYMOUS*
Reading it in Blue Laser's voice makes it so much better.
"swigity swigity gotta get that booty." So close and yet so far
You mean swiggity swooty I'm coming for that booty?
ask Matt :P
Jesus Christ every time a shield gets thrown in someone’s face it’s comedy gold
*CLANG*
... and bonus points for running towards it.
*BONK*
Like Art of Fighting 3.
Captain americas of all creeds would be proud.
This channel's as old as Skyrim and you numbnuts still forgetting to turn your controllers on before the video starts is why I love this channel!
Never change.
thelaughingrouge Not to be a nerd, but, this channel is a year and close to 5 months older than Skyrim. Older than the GameGrumps in fact.
Cmon lets indulge op. Yeaaaaah good point dude. Here's 200 thumbs up for no reason
TheOtisUpham Man, who pissed in your cereal this morning? People shouldn’t express appreciation for their favorite channels I guess.
BEST FRIENDS BELONG TO THE NORDS

That green dude in the thumbnail just running into battle with no weapon. Major respect
Devon Palmer I'm pretty sure he's throwing the shield at Blue Guy.
Respect doesn’t mean much when you’re dead.
The only weapon you need are your massive balls.
Donna Rodriguez Oh my God! One of you guys is on the best friends channel!
They took away his weapon because he forgot the cookies.
This game with an announcer, some music, and optional stage hazards would be good.
There should be a hazard with a turret that just shoots shields.
A whole bunch of shield slamming into peoples faces.
@@fearanger1 "If you want a vision of the past, imagine a shield slamming a man's face... repeatedly."
The flacid facefirst flop to the ground makes these Battle Lords look more like bumble kings.
3:30 Yeah, Zone? If you ever needed MORE audio, well here it is.
There’s Gang Beasts level of fighting competency.
Then there’s Arena Gods level of fighting competency.
The Zaibatsu fall in the middle of these two… more so to the Gang Beasts side, however.
This isn't Connect Four...
this isn't Blazblue
This is anal sex!
Drake German Exactly, more like angry Anal threesome in the kitchen
bloody fuck you, bloody
I could go for an angry anal threesome in the kitchen right about now.
Er, I mean a Connect Four threesome in the living room? Fuck it.
The simplest games always make the best Fisticuffs
11:13 When Captain America throws his mighty shield~
*BONK*
Matt just randomly tea-bagging Pat and trying to figure out what to do and saying “Am I just fucking you?” Had me in sheer tears for five minutes, my stomach was in so much pain from laughing so hard
Arena gods... of War?
I don't know. I don't see any bois around here.
"BOI" there, it exists
Arena BOIS
Where is my God of Gripes, Kentucky Wilderness edition?
Professor Coldheart hey, I'm still waiting for my Final Solution, budda.

The Pollice Verso 1872, the thumb meaning may have been lost that late.
Roflcopter_launchpad 111 Well good sir I Bite they thumb at thee
Roflcopter_launchpad 111 still is that way in the middle East that's why there are so many pictures of middle eastern children giving us solders a thumbs up
Weird that they knew how important the thumb is so early before we figured out that’s one of humanities biggest advantage over most animals.
I mean people have been using their thumbs for a while.
Will Liam ever press start
That missing fourth slot just makes me sad... I know I should've gotten over it after a year, but still...
Trygve Plaustrum The one who got away...
Watch it now and see how it feels.
"No?"
"No!"
*unusual gasping*
Amazing.
When I asked for an episode about gods. THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANTED!
*CLOSE YOUR HEART TO IT BOI*
Then you asked for the wrong thing.
Oh jeez, there's a lot of exploitable sound clips of suggestive grunting in this episode.
Thought that, too. Worth a remix for the end of a podcast? Somebody get on that!
10:07
there's sooo many :V
Ok, this premise actually seems like a lot of fun tbh, I really hope they do smth good with this
25:45 Oh my thing, my thumb stick fell off!! - Woolie Madden
Carlos Curet right after with Matt’s “fuck!” That to me is the highlight of the video
I hope someone make a animated clip of that.
How dare the Arena Gods deny me my God of War play through?! What's next, will they deny my Yakuza 6 play through as well?!
Scar yakuza 6 will never get a best friend hah
I want Yakuza 1 Remake :(
Celio Hogane *ahem* yakuza kiwami
AREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEna gods.
Guys. Guys.. Kiwami means extreme
This game makes me wanna see Kratos go to Rome and see the off-color versions of the Greek gods.
Kratos: "ZEUS, HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!"
"Oh I'm not Zeus, my name is Jupiter."
**Kratos let's out a long and tired sigh**
Kratos: "We're leaving Atreus."
Atreus:"But I wanna-"
Kratos:**breathes in** *"BOI!"*
Man I really didn't want this video to end. Or I wish it was longer. This was amazing. Hope there's another part for it like there was gang beasts
I could watch WAY more of this. Also, the body prints in the sand are a GREAT touch.
Pat and Woolie: "Actual Dialogue"
Matt: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
geez Matt, I think I said this before but damn.
Man, Gang Beasts really changed when the Cripz and Bloods gained access to that Top-down camera tech.
Part of my brain (read: all of it) is asking, can you pick up limbs and smack other players with it? If it's not there yet, developers... **waggles eyebrows**
"Dump and pump."
Every week I forget about FNF stealing the 6pm slot.
3 stooges meets the arena
If this game is made to be moddable one day, 3 stooges attacks and noises is probably the first and best one to create. Get on that, please!
It could use an announcer or Jim Sterling doing his best Hedonism bot impression.
THIS IS NOT THE GOD WE NEED
BUT IT IS THE ONE WE DESERVE
*CLOSE YOUR HEART TO IT BOI*
MAKE UR MOTHER PROUD BOI
I DO NOT KNOW
Have we entered into the Platinum Age of SBF LPs? It sure feels like we have. So many good times had, so many laughs. It's funny how the little things in life can move mountains. I was on the verge of tears, wishing I could fade from existence earlier but now I have tears in my eyes from laughing at this LP. Thanks for making me feel better on a shitty day. Never stop, guys, never stop.
I like the level of the barrel that we're at
This isn't even a barrel anymore. This is like a wicker basket or somesuch.
When you reached your hand to the bottom of this barrel, it went through the impossible space and started back at the top of the barrel, allowing you to always reach further towards the bottom.
That sounds like the work of an enemy stand
This was so intense even I was clenched.
11:00 16:30 23:00 for fights in the super open looping stage
That last line... my sides hurt.
Is it me or did they completely ignore the left hand right hand mechanic? Seems like you can pick something up in your left and right
Hey, they can barely remember to turn the controller on 33% of the time
16:57
That was some fancy throwing. You're pretty good.
Wonder if Kratos is going kill these Gods as well.
What even IS this game? It feels like an old Atari game, but given a SERIOUS makeover with enhanced graphics and animation speed.
I miss this team :'(
Love it when you guys play games like these! Need to be an hour!
6:13, started laughing the exact same way Matt did.
Every Friday Night Fisticuffs, we get more audio samples for the Super Best Friends porn parody from Zone, and yet I still don’t see a video.
"He still stopped to listen foolishly like a *fool* ."
I don't know why...but the way Matt says the word "Fool" is comically satisfying.
The noises they make in this video are absolutely beautiful.
Ave, true to Caesar
Amazing! I would love to see you play this on full release
2:21 - Liam, press Start ...
I SAID LIAM ... PRESS START !!!
The *CLANG!* of the shields is so hilariously satisfying.
Nice to know evenings is still god time. Norse mythology is the best.
Edit: Every time I see the 4th player slot empty on this channel, I feel sad.
That Liam shapped hole in our hearts pangs ever so more T.T
Daily reminder that the "fan"base asked for this
I miss Kratos
I always miss having Liam around the most on these types of games when a 4th person would really balance it out
The sword is likely a sica, a short sword used in the early ages of Rome and notably the Dacians. In the arenas, it found itself often used by thraex gladiators that get their name from the Thracians who also used the sword.

These guys make the weirdest noises when they play fight games.
The increasingly homing thrown weapons wrapping around the screen are the best part. But the key question is, since the controller screen lists both right and left actions, can you hold two one-handed objects at the same time?
I LOL'd super hard when Pat taught and instructed Matt on how to kill him XD
They truly are the Best of Friends.
Gods. But not of the War variety
The Romans would have loved Evo.
King of the Moon they would probably say "could use an orgy, though"
Yeah why not? It basically doubles as a salt mine after the event is over.
7:40 It's a sica. Sort of a bent gladius meant to stab around a shield. Gladiator weapons just got freaking bizarre sometimes.
Just imagine a stage where the middle is blocked off and you have to use the gates to get around.
Woolie used Chi and broke the controller
18:36 "Yeah mother fucker!" *gets punched* I fucking died laughing. XD
I'm glad a game finally properly portrayed the majestic ancient greek art of combat that was throwing your weapons into the black holes around the coliseum to cause them to infinitely fly through the arena while killing literally EVERYONE including the weapon's owner. It brings a tear to my eye, it does!
If the real gladiator fights were this slap stick I could see why they were so popular.
Due to the title, I thought the guys were submitting to the pressure and playing a MOBA.
pat plays HOTS
More like submit to his crack addiction, can't stop opening dem boxes.
We need a part 2 of this
Matt's laugh fills me with life.
Just listening to the audio from after the error is fixed til 4:36 was amazing and I recommend it to every one
Fuck me, that was a treat to watch. It's rare to see them all get so involved in playing. Definitely getting this one
I saw a thing about this like matt read. The accepted form was thumb in the fist and to the side, which meant sheath weapon, while the other was something like thumb outside hand and hand down which was mercy kill I think. Been awhile since I watched it. I do remember a mural that basically said "Lets get naked and party" though.
Can’t help but watch the intro knowing Liam filmed it :’(
He forgot the damn cookies.
The two hand motions to decide a warrior's fate in the Roman arena were the thumbs down, which meant to drop your weapon and spare the man, and thumb into your chest, which meant to finish him off.
I could of watched that for another half hour. hopefully this gets revisited if it gets finished.
I read that "thumbs down" meant to stick your weapon in the ground and let the opposing gladiator live while "thumbs up" would be the emperor pointing his thumb towards his throat as a gesture meaning "finish them off"
17:45 Best 15 seconds! lol
Games like this, Nidhogg and Gang Beasts are honestly my favorite Fisticuffs videos.
the impossible architecture makes this game infinitely more fun to watch
That entire first bit about thumbs up was hilarious 😂
3:30 - 4:05 is one of those "Close Your Eyes" moments.
I love when woolie figured out how to guide the projectiles.
These soundbytes for the next z0ne vid xD
I love how quickly they realized that pat was the most dangerous in this game and started dumping on him together
this is the best episode in months
19:13 Whenever I trip in public
Can Billy please make an edit of this video, but just with all the "ohh" and "uhhh" and "wuuuuh" noises, with their varying degrees of bewilderment and mounting passion, please?
For comedy purposes only, of course.
The line between SMS and FNF has never been blurrier
Thumbs up ment kill him and thumbs down ment he can stay on earth. It's changed in movies to make it easier to understand as we see up as a good thing.
KillerKaje I heard that was only a theory
KillerKaje thats only theory
Owl Eyes Theory being thumbs up meant run him through and thumbs down meant sheath your blade.
Thumbs down means let the slave live, thumbs up means off with his head. The gesture is to the Emperor not the slave. BLOOD SPORTS! Also I think it'd be very odd for the Emperor to throw them back in shackles after that, being that a thumbs down could cause a riot. Also that happening in Roman arenas could be bullshit and they could have all been using wooden weapons. They used to have the greens vs the blues and it would decide politics. Thousands of people killed over some trite disagreement when a war general returned home one day and wasn't putting up with their protest in the stadium over sport/political games. Which is why the Olympics represent nations today...
Gravity is a theory.
"My thumbstick fell off" might be the best excuse ever.
The controls screen shows attack, grab and throw for both left and right. So I'm guessing you could pick up two one-handed things like sword and shield, and these bumbleboys just used the right side.
Thought woolie screamed "my thumb skin fell off!" I was scared the swamp thing was finally losing his powers lol
I see it's another Gang Beasts without a P4...
So we have God Of Dad LP, we have this amazing video for this amazing game,So When's the Video for GODS on SNES?
That was awesome! I love this more please!
Matt's laugh at 17:50 ! Needs to be in the beginning of an comp or the end .
