Lol just like real life? Fat wallet? Best healthcare and medicines and food and healthy lifestyle options. Skinny wallet? Processed food, state provided minimum healthcare, medicine if you’re lucky and shitty lifestyle options.
@@jerryonlychild7003 I mean, you can live just fine with a low paying job as long as you're not supporting someone, like a child. Sure you won't get a lot of luxury's but you're still living
In Neverwinter Nights, you can literally buy the true name of the final demon boss you face allowing you to avoid fighting him altogether and banishing him to hell saving yourself from an extremely difficult boss fight.
I mean, if you own every Blacksmith, it's just a matter of time before you have all the weapons, and the Templar are using dull worn out swords and crappy armor. So you're eventually winning.
Actually if you own all the blacksmiths, you win on the long run. Unable to sharpen their weapons or buy new ones, and in a couple of years they will be so defenceless that taking them down would be a walk in the park.
Not how that works, really. You own all the blacksmiths in *one* city, the Templar have the economies of entire nations under their sway. They can use blacksmiths in other nations to make their weapons, come in and kill you.
The real trick is to start a guild system. With this you can smash up any non-licensed ( i.e templar) blacksmiths so they absolutely must go though you who will charge up the bung hole.
Then you can build a series of large chains of blacksmithing organizations nationwide. It is in the style of the French aristocracy. You can branch out into other related fields and totally ruin the supply chain of any and all Templar organisations. When this eventually becomes a matter of state you will have the wealth to prop up covert assassin heads of state. Create a powerful lobby and throw money at the strongest politicians in your corner. This won't just allow your monopolies legally, but actively protect them. You could win this war without firing a shot. Granted this road leads exactly to a bizarro assassin version of Abstergo.
Every Batman game ever made. Bruce literally has a gadget fot every possible situation that he could ever be in, and it's all because he's a billionaire.
Activating all the stud multipliers at once in the first Lego Star Wars was a *bad* idea. The stud counter at the end of the level that transfers your hard-earned plastic from the level into your total studs collected has a fixed rate... After running through a level with my little brother and collecting a whopping 47.35 billion studs it began the slow process of transferring all that into our total stud count. We left the game running overnight and returned in the morning to find that it had counted down to 47.34 billion studs... We then restarted the system because phew... not waiting 13 years for that.
HAHAHA Oh god You poor thing Damn, i hope that's fixed in the newer lego games (I mean like scaling the speed with the amount of studs instead of going at a fixed speed)
Update: I have done the calculations and found that assuming 10 hours went by from you left it and returned, that it would take 54 years, not 13 years, for it to finish collecting it all lol.

Yeah fable went downhill after TLC. fable 2 was good, but not as good as TLC. Fable 3 is just a dumbed down piece of crap with hardly any spells and a broken weapons system. The weapons are randomly placed and not even obtainable on 1 game without trading. There are also severely broken weapons like the icemaiden which can literally kill anything with zero effort. Even boss fights require nothing more than tapping "Y" 2 or 3 times at most.... Everything else gets one shot (Itll even one shot entire groups of enemies) if its anywhere near the shotgun spray of the icemaiden. The only things they improved on was clothing dye and multiplayer. Everything else about fable 3 is garbage compared to 1 and 2.

Fable 2 was my favorite personally. Really sucks it never got ported to pc cuz i really want to play it but my consoles all got retired long ago. PC is just so much better for the most part after all.
Despite it being physiologically impossible, money talks! Here are the games where it talks the loudest, helping you get to where you want to be. Hooray for cash!
I remember testing Yojimbo by paying him 1 gil. I was never disappointed. His attacks were bad ass and you still occasionally got instadeath all for a measly gil. I tried out larger amounts but you get the same attacks. Why pay 10.000 gil to get wooden dog attack when you can get on the cheap. You save money and you can have him attack multiple times until his HP is depleted.
Me and my sister both play the Sims a lot. I have legitimately never used the cheats once. My sister always uses them, even the ones that let you just slide the mood meters.
DDDA is actually real fun you can climb on giant enemies and incapacitate them in certain ways and change up your skill set the final boss for that labarynth? (I suck at spelling) DLC was amazing to fight and it had weight to it the pillars could be destroyed and the ending was kinda sad.
naked snek It has fast travel and I'm pretty sure it came out before Skyrim or around the same time lmao. Also, it's massively greater than Skyrim will ever be lmfao
Same here. I kept every promise, was a literal saint, *AND* had enough money for the endgame, thanks both to real estate, and to blacksmithing. All the blacksmithing. Also, combining ice and tornado magic was just OP as fuck in that game.
Crow the mad you got 20k for the assassination but the renovations cost 17k, leaving you with the same total reward for saving it as you did for destroying it, you just have a lot more non-monetary benefits to saving it, such as the opportunity to make more money.
This video reminded me of in Mass Effect when Shepard sells out to all the shops... "I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on the Citadel!" What a tool, lol... ;-)
Haha never gets old hearing that in all the shops I know it doesn't fit with the comedy of the bit.. But reloading your ME1 save you're already like 90% of the way to getting all the ship upgrades, even without that it takes like 5-10 minutes haha...they're super cheap
'You have committed crimes against Skyrim, and now you must pay!' 'UUUUGGGHHH, FINE! Here's thirty-four thousand septims, now fuck off!' 'Wh-... Really?' 'Yes, really! I had to murder six dragons while I was running errands for a bunch of daedric princes, I'm carrying around 400 pounds of Dragon bones! I just wanna drop this shit off and go home, so take the damned septims and make this problem go away!'
Also in FFX you have the bribe command which instantly removes the enemy from battle if the right amount is used. Not to mention it also gives you free stuff normally inaccessible or otherwise extremely rare
I LOVED the mining of planets in Mass Effect 2. I wish they had it in 3! I’d play that mini game in its own game for fun. You’re just sleepy, that’s all. 🤗
If you like that, you'd probably like exploration in Elite: Dangerous. It became a bedtime activity for me to go out and do full scans on a whole solar system, including planetary scans which were sort of similar to ME2's mining. Super relaxing, and shuts my brain right down in the best way.
I managed an entire playthrough without ever learning how speechcraft worked. It wasn't until my second run that I figured out that little minigame. Now I almost never bribe anymore, no need. Max them out using speechcraft and then bribe them the rest of the way if needed.
It took me around 8 years and I finally got the Gold required to save my people in Fable 3. I refused to make people overpay for their homes and force horns upon my character, so it took a while for the money to add up. No casualties so worth it 👍
I thought I had enough, but miscalculated how much I needed. Was so close to the perfect ending, but the last deal ended up costing more than expected.
If we're talking lego, don't forget the red brick that causes every character to explode into studs upon death. I'm not to sure, but that may have applied to even those that spawned infinitely...
I noticed that in the money slot in your inventory in Terarria each does "Ranged Damage" which means you can: A. Shot it from a bow or gun. or B. throw it at enemies
You are not alone, I needed a maximum of 1 hour to collect enough raw materials so I could buy everything necessary, I do not understand the problem of some people with the mining in ME2, does not take long and is not necessary to end the game. And with savegame import you have 50000 of each raw material from the beginning.
It could've been spiced up, but I didn't hate it as much as most seem to. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you can save all your crew members without scanning a single planet. The resources you find during missions are enough. It's upgrading your small arms that costs a fortune.
Well, I see people put it like "It's not that bad and can be done in little time". I actually LIKED it. I would go to systems I didn't need to go just to find resources to mine even when I had more than enough. I might have mined the entire damn game because I found it entertaining. Am I weird?
What about RPGs? Better equipment=Godhood. In some of the crappier or online ones, the same vendors who offer basic crap to the noobs also sell the 'Ultimate Deathlord Armor of Immortality and Free Muffins', so if you have the cash you can get the goods too.
That Fable III pollution joke alone bought my like. Well played. Also, YES and another YES to Femshep. She makes so much more of an incredible character somehow, even though literally everything else stays the same.
And don't forget about any game in the "Civilization" series - with enough money at your disposal *anything* is possible: be it giving a rapid upgrade to your city's sewer system, finishing up a wonder before a rival beats you to that accomplishment or just spawning a massive army in just a few turns - money does just about anything you want and then some!
Fable 3 was relatively easy to complete, it has been at least 2 or 3 years since I last owned the game on PC but I still remember the steps to amass way more than enough money to keep my promises and save each civilian 10 times over. It was a simple and easy process of completing odd jobs at Brightwall Village until I had enough money to buy a stall, go afk for a few hours until I had enough money to buy a house and furnish it to the 10's. I went exploring the area because I knew there were a lot of loot to be obtained and sold, I utilized that money to buy more houses until I owned the entirety of Brightwall Village. I went to the next town and done the very same thing, buy a few buildings, go afk for a few hours and wait for the money to pile up until I had enough money to purchase every shop, purchase, furnish and keep every property at 100% upkeep. I wound up owning every single last building in the game, every house was fully furnished with the best equipment, I had made a lot of NPC's incredibly happy and constantly was showered with gifts, I sold everything I didn't find useful or necessary to earn a greater sum of money and rapidly. Before I knew it I had amassed $130,000,000 (more than enough to reach the top of my coffer) and that was before I faced Logan or even bothered considering it. Kept Logan alive, protected every civilian, kept all my promises, purchased every single bit of land, had Driftwood built and completed. I had at least $110,000,000 after doing every single good deed and gave up all the money to obtain the mysterious item in the chest which sat at the top of the coffer room. I went afk for 5 hours to see I had at least $2,000,000 and wasted every single last dollar on chicken race bets because I got bored shitless of the game. I wound up slaying every single NPC in every single place.
Money Money Money, always sunny, in a video game world! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, All the weapons I could buy, if I had a little money, it's a righties world ;)
Gimme that cold cash I want to stuff it in my couch Gimme those big stacks I need those bricks to build my house Gimme all o' that, all o' that 'til the ATM runs out If money can't buy happiness Then why is it so fabulous? Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh Oh ... sorry, I couldn't stop myself
For me when I played New Game + on Persona 5 it was significantly easier, considering I started out with nine million yen from the moment I stepped into Tokyo
You know, after playing Ratchet & Clank Tools of Destruction and using that disco ball/dance grenade weapon, it came to me - there's an awful lot of dancing that goes on in video games these days. Saints Row 4, Sora and Kairi waltzing about in Kingdom Hearts (and Jack too with Applause Applause), Yuna during FF X-2...how about a list about dance scenes in video games?
Oh man when I heard the "can I have your autograph?" I was hit with nostalgia. Mainly because me and my sis were too young and had no idea how to pass the level because we could not understand english. We played it again when we got older but we never could finish the game. We were stuck on a seamonster. We should try playing it again now that we are better gamers.
The Fable series is so underrated and I've played all of them over 10 times.. And that's saying a lot considering that I'm a PlayStation guy but I like this channel and my Xbox 360 still.
It gets even more fun when they make video titled "7(6,8) games where you die at the end" and they say beware the spoilers and shows us the list of games.
i play on console without mods or glitches etc. and i have over 2 million septim plus another 2 million worth of goods i've saved. wish i had someplace to spend it on something worth buying.
I remember even back in Oblivion before Skyrim, I banned myself from selling potions just because the amount of money you accrue from it is ridiculous and way too easy to carry. Weapons merchanting, though? Now that's a more honorable trade. Those things are heavy!
Get Black Star. Master enchanting with items you've bought. Learn Transmute ore. Spam tf outta it. Make magic jewelry. Sell it. Build a fortune. Master enchantment via tutors you pay/field research. Make max magic gear. Summon allies which fight until death. Make a tanky magic resist suit. All whilst buying needed material and tutoring. Oh, and maybe build a home to house research material.
Octopath Traveler. Tressa the merchant character has a skill that allows her to summon hired help, for a price of course. The multipliers on these attacks are crazy high and outright broken at the start of the game.
2. Or... you can make pies. That's how I did it. If you make the money before taking the throne, you can be as nice as you want. 4. This doesn't make you WIN anything... it's just a way to accomplish a completionist run. 5. Being well-equipped isn't "throwing money at your problems," otherwise you'd have to put every action RPG on this list. 6. This is a bit of a cop-out, isn't it? You don't "win" a simulation. 7. That has nothing to do with winning...
This is more of a technicality, but in Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2, there’s some old dude you can talk to that raises your level by one instantly, so long as you have the bills.
Nah, you don't buy planets in space stage...you buy entire solar systems. I have eradicated a surprising number of space-faring races by buying them out.
Seems like a good topic for a vid: X times you were better off outsourcing the job. My fav example was a veritable Gunship 2000. Set all difficulty options to max, then start the mission, don't even switch the engine on, and have your wingmen do everything on their own. Then reap medals and honors - the only medal you're not getting for that is the Purple Heart.

Only second, Ellen? Do you need someone to make beardman disappear? I know a guy...
I remember testing Yojimbo by paying him 1 gil. I was never disappointed. His attacks were bad ass and you still occasionally got instadeath all for a measly gil. I tried out larger amounts but you get the same attacks. Why pay 10.000 gil to get wooden dog attack when you can get on the cheap. You save money and you can have him attack multiple times until his HP is depleted.
no borderlands? shame since "your money is useless, unless you spend it" - marcus munitions
Me and my sister both play the Sims a lot. I have legitimately never used the cheats once. My sister always uses them, even the ones that let you just slide the mood meters.
In Dragon's Dogma, you can kill enemies by literally throwing your money at them with the Purse of Charity
In Final Fantasy ten you could use the summon that required gil or there is a skill you can unlock to literally throw the gil at enemies.
Dragon's Dogma, oh that Skyrim with no fast travel
naked snek bruh that game is nothing like Skyrim it’s got such a unique combat system that barely any games use
DDDA is actually real fun you can climb on giant enemies and incapacitate them in certain ways and change up your skill set the final boss for that labarynth? (I suck at spelling) DLC was amazing to fight and it had weight to it the pillars could be destroyed and the ending was kinda sad.
naked snek It has fast travel and I'm pretty sure it came out before Skyrim or around the same time lmao.
Also, it's massively greater than Skyrim will ever be lmfao
fable 3: I did it with the money and being good. IT TOOK AGES
Alexander Mason I just manipulated the clock on the 360 just like with 2
Alexander Mason i did it too. so many pies.
Same here. I kept every promise, was a literal saint, *AND* had enough money for the endgame, thanks both to real estate, and to blacksmithing. All the blacksmithing.
Also, combining ice and tornado magic was just OP as fuck in that game.
Lord Nanfoodle I did mine exactly the same as yours except I played the lute instead of smithing
I just ran around doing side missions earning passive money xD
What about skyrim?
"I just killed the emperor and caused the downfall of cyrodiil.... 1000 gold you say? Yeah I got that much."
pretty sure you get about 10,000 for killing the emperor, then again most of that goes to upgrading the sanctuary.
Crow the mad I was referring to the bounty on your head, when someone notices you during any murder :D
Cyrodiil has survived the assassination of emperors before. There was an entire game about it. They'll be fine
Crow the mad you got 20k for the assassination but the renovations cost 17k, leaving you with the same total reward for saving it as you did for destroying it, you just have a lot more non-monetary benefits to saving it, such as the opportunity to make more money.
Yea but if you get the torture chamber you get like 5k from those poor saps.
This video reminded me of in Mass Effect when Shepard sells out to all the shops... "I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on the Citadel!" What a tool, lol... ;-)
Haha never gets old hearing that in all the shops
I know it doesn't fit with the comedy of the bit..
But reloading your ME1 save you're already like 90% of the way to getting all the ship upgrades, even without that it takes like 5-10 minutes haha...they're super cheap
Games that let you win by spending money:

No Skyrim? The amount of times I have bribed guards to avoid going to jail...
Bill Smith
And there's A Night to Remember, which you can complete by throwing money at people.
'You have committed crimes against Skyrim, and now you must pay!'
'UUUUGGGHHH, FINE! Here's thirty-four thousand septims, now fuck off!'
'Wh-... Really?'
'Yes, really! I had to murder six dragons while I was running errands for a bunch of daedric princes, I'm carrying around 400 pounds of Dragon bones! I just wanna drop this shit off and go home, so take the damned septims and make this problem go away!'
Ha! I'm just a cheap bastard who intimidateds everyone. Aldudin mine as well be the good guy
And of course how easy it is to power level via trainers, alchemy, enchanting and smithing
No 3DMARK? WUT?
Also in FFX you have the bribe command which instantly removes the enemy from battle if the right amount is used. Not to mention it also gives you free stuff normally inaccessible or otherwise extremely rare
Every waking moment of GTA Online had better be mentioned.

Candy crush, where you can just use your credit card to bypass the whole game
Might explain why i gave up somewhere between lvl 50 and 60, I refused to pay real money on a free game.
hari4com hellll yea
Wait...there's an end to Candy Crush?
should of just donwloaded a mod that gives you all the items for free.

money can buy things that make you happy therefore it gives you indirect happiness, also I enjoy having it in my possession

He was wearing a Nelson and Murdock shirt....man I love outside xtra and xbox....
I LOVED the mining of planets in Mass Effect 2. I wish they had it in 3! I’d play that mini game in its own game for fun. You’re just sleepy, that’s all. 🤗
but EDI hated it when I was trying to probe Uranus :((
it is a fun mini game
If you like that, you'd probably like exploration in Elite: Dangerous. It became a bedtime activity for me to go out and do full scans on a whole solar system, including planetary scans which were sort of similar to ME2's mining. Super relaxing, and shuts my brain right down in the best way.
@@angelkitty11 I would like to think she enjoyed watching, for the education. Uh um, for science, of course!
@@ossiehalvorson7702 I'll have to check that out! It's such a satisfying thing. If people don't get that feeling...I don't think they ever will.
Elder Scrolls Oblivion, who needs persuasion to gain information when you have GOLD?
I managed an entire playthrough without ever learning how speechcraft worked. It wasn't until my second run that I figured out that little minigame. Now I almost never bribe anymore, no need. Max them out using speechcraft and then bribe them the rest of the way if needed.
Or just, you know, Charm 100 points for 2 seconds on touch.
The speechcraft shit made no sense. Great game tho
Ikcatcher same with fallout 4
It took me around 8 years and I finally got the Gold required to save my people in Fable 3. I refused to make people overpay for their homes and force horns upon my character, so it took a while for the money to add up. No casualties so worth it 👍
I thought I had enough, but miscalculated how much I needed. Was so close to the perfect ending, but the last deal ended up costing more than expected.
If we're talking lego, don't forget the red brick that causes every character to explode into studs upon death. I'm not to sure, but that may have applied to even those that spawned infinitely...
Max multipliers. Stud magnet.
Guide studs become real.
Buy invinciblility. Profit.
"money can't buy happiness" but that can win video games.
True the wide spread of miro transations made it "pay to win" which, in my opinion, ruins the fun of a game.
and that makes me happy
Money, if it cannot bring you happiness
Just give it to me
I noticed that in the money slot in your inventory in Terarria each does "Ranged Damage" which means you can:
A. Shot it from a bow or gun.
or B. throw it at enemies
It’s for the coin gun!
Am I the only one who enjoyed mining the planets in ME2? If you mine a system after every mission, there isn't any grinding needed.
You are not alone, I needed a maximum of 1 hour to collect enough raw materials so I could buy everything necessary, I do not understand the problem of some people with the mining in ME2, does not take long and is not necessary to end the game. And with savegame import you have 50000 of each raw material from the beginning.
FunnyLilNightmare Actually I liked it too. Something kinda Zen about it. But I can understand ppl not liking it.
if you do it systematicly you can cover the entire planets surface and deplete it in 3 turns with the scanner takes no time at all.
It could've been spiced up, but I didn't hate it as much as most seem to. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you can save all your crew members without scanning a single planet. The resources you find during missions are enough. It's upgrading your small arms that costs a fortune.
Well, I see people put it like "It's not that bad and can be done in little time". I actually LIKED it. I would go to systems I didn't need to go just to find resources to mine even when I had more than enough. I might have mined the entire damn game because I found it entertaining. Am I weird?
you guys forgot about Killing Floor and the amazing power of spending unhealthy amounts of dosh to buy the most destructive weapons.
IT'S RAINING MONEYYYYYYYYYYY
SING A SONG OF SIX PENTS POCKET FULL OF DOSH

money can't buy happiness? you just use money the wrong way, so you're not feeling happy
"Money can't buy happiness" is the lie poor people tell themselves to help them sleep at night.
I feel like you shouldn't have *too* much money, so when you do buy things it feels like a treat.
yall are like "i saved people by making pies" n shit I just let them fucking die and kept all the money for myself
Money can't buy happiness, but it still feels good to cry in the backseat of a Mercedes-Benz.
money can help pay for memorable experiences with others
Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the underdark. You can buy the final boss' true name, and command him to die instead of fighting him.
What about RPGs? Better equipment=Godhood. In some of the crappier or online ones, the same vendors who offer basic crap to the noobs also sell the 'Ultimate Deathlord Armor of Immortality and Free Muffins', so if you have the cash you can get the goods too.
yes but no cuz also u have to make a good build or you will have a bunch of godly items that dont work together
And there's the fact that you can farm the best equipment without losing money
Bloody not always some rpgs need cash for boss battles or entering areas and that kind of stuff
The bloody lvl requirement that every rpg game has what about that
Only bad rpgs suffer from godhood caused by top tier items
That Fable III pollution joke alone bought my like. Well played.
Also, YES and another YES to Femshep. She makes so much more of an incredible character somehow, even though literally everything else stays the same.
Alpha Centauri: literally buying victory by cornering the energy market.
Actually that's EVERY 4X game out there of sufficient depth; there'll be 'economic win conditions' - Civ, MoO, etc.
I cried laughing at the falling asleep during that mass effect bit 😂😂😂
Andy and Ellen had a lot of fun writing those puns, didn't they...
They definitely PUNted them out of the park.
Here's something you can win by throwing money at it: MMOs with microtransactions!
Owait, you meant INGAME money, my bad...
Pay to win, you know who are top spenders are just by looking at PvP ranking. But really throwing money away.
8:46 A burst of nostalgia just hit me in the face
And don't forget about any game in the "Civilization" series - with enough money at your disposal *anything* is possible: be it giving a rapid upgrade to your city's sewer system, finishing up a wonder before a rival beats you to that accomplishment or just spawning a massive army in just a few turns - money does just about anything you want and then some!
nice daredevil shirt
Fable 3 was relatively easy to complete, it has been at least 2 or 3 years since I last owned the game on PC but I still remember the steps to amass way more than enough money to keep my promises and save each civilian 10 times over. It was a simple and easy process of completing odd jobs at Brightwall Village until I had enough money to buy a stall, go afk for a few hours until I had enough money to buy a house and furnish it to the 10's. I went exploring the area because I knew there were a lot of loot to be obtained and sold, I utilized that money to buy more houses until I owned the entirety of Brightwall Village.
I went to the next town and done the very same thing, buy a few buildings, go afk for a few hours and wait for the money to pile up until I had enough money to purchase every shop, purchase, furnish and keep every property at 100% upkeep. I wound up owning every single last building in the game, every house was fully furnished with the best equipment, I had made a lot of NPC's incredibly happy and constantly was showered with gifts, I sold everything I didn't find useful or necessary to earn a greater sum of money and rapidly. Before I knew it I had amassed $130,000,000 (more than enough to reach the top of my coffer) and that was before I faced Logan or even bothered considering it.
Kept Logan alive, protected every civilian, kept all my promises, purchased every single bit of land, had Driftwood built and completed. I had at least $110,000,000 after doing every single good deed and gave up all the money to obtain the mysterious item in the chest which sat at the top of the coffer room. I went afk for 5 hours to see I had at least $2,000,000 and wasted every single last dollar on chicken race bets because I got bored shitless of the game. I wound up slaying every single NPC in every single place.
You became a god then you got bored of being god and killed everything
Money Money Money, always sunny, in a video game world! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, All the weapons I could buy, if I had a little money, it's a righties world ;)
I love you Caitlin RC ♥♥♥

Gimme that cold cash
I want to stuff it in my couch
Gimme those big stacks
I need those bricks to build my house
Gimme all o' that, all o' that 'til the ATM runs out

Then why is it so fabulous?
Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh

Best reference ever
Wait how did u get the OX next to your name
I only just noticed how clever some of the entry subtitles are.
In FFX you can also pay your enemies to give up and they drop rare items that would take you hours to grind for if you pay them enough
For me when I played New Game + on Persona 5 it was significantly easier, considering I started out with nine million yen from the moment I stepped into Tokyo
I left my Xbox 360 on for a day to let the money pile up in Fable 3; had way more than enough to keep all the promises lol.
You know it gathered in the background right? I took a break for a month, came back, and got swamped with coin.
You know, after playing Ratchet & Clank Tools of Destruction and using that disco ball/dance grenade weapon, it came to me - there's an awful lot of dancing that goes on in video games these days. Saints Row 4, Sora and Kairi waltzing about in Kingdom Hearts (and Jack too with Applause Applause), Yuna during FF X-2...how about a list about dance scenes in video games?
Bogmire42 SR4 gets 2nd, Star Wars Kinect wins hands down.
Oh man when I heard the "can I have your autograph?" I was hit with nostalgia. Mainly because me and my sis were too young and had no idea how to pass the level because we could not understand english. We played it again when we got older but we never could finish the game. We were stuck on a seamonster. We should try playing it again now that we are better gamers.
10:15 "take the humble stud, for instance" someone's definitely use that out of context XD
I am so glad that youre channel is a thing. You guys never fail to ake me smile.
Every NPC in BotW. Seriously I went to the end of Hyrule and fought creatures 70x my size for a thank you and 50 rupees.
What I want to know what does Yojimbo does with all his money? Buy treats for his aeon dog.

The Fable series is so underrated and I've played all of them over 10 times.. And that's saying a lot considering that I'm a PlayStation guy but I like this channel and my Xbox 360 still.
Everytime you say spoilers and spoil us what you're going to show us in the video i close my eyes for 5 seconds.
It gets even more fun when they make video titled "7(6,8) games where you die at the end" and they say beware the spoilers and shows us the list of games.
only if you can throw money at your problems in skyrim, one of my characters has 250,000 septims.
i play on console without mods or glitches etc. and i have over 2 million septim plus another 2 million worth of goods i've saved. wish i had someplace to spend it on something worth buying.
I wish i couldve had a castle and village of my own in skyrim.

I remember even back in Oblivion before Skyrim, I banned myself from selling potions just because the amount of money you accrue from it is ridiculous and way too easy to carry. Weapons merchanting, though? Now that's a more honorable trade. Those things are heavy!
Get Black Star.
Master enchanting with items you've bought.
Learn Transmute ore.
Spam tf outta it.
Make magic jewelry.
Sell it.
Build a fortune.
Master enchantment via tutors you pay/field research.
Make max magic gear.
Summon allies which fight until death.
Make a tanky magic resist suit.
All whilst buying needed material and tutoring.
Oh, and maybe build a home to house research material.
God damn it, now I'm jealous of Andys beard *shakes fist*
You forgot about the "Spare Change" FFX ability that lets you literally throw gil at enemies, dealing up to the maximum damage.
Octopath Traveler. Tressa the merchant character has a skill that allows her to summon hired help, for a price of course. The multipliers on these attacks are crazy high and outright broken at the start of the game.
2. Or... you can make pies. That's how I did it. If you make the money before taking the throne, you can be as nice as you want.
4. This doesn't make you WIN anything... it's just a way to accomplish a completionist run.
5. Being well-equipped isn't "throwing money at your problems," otherwise you'd have to put every action RPG on this list.
6. This is a bit of a cop-out, isn't it? You don't "win" a simulation.
7. That has nothing to do with winning...
What they mean is making the problems go away by throwing money at it
This is more of a technicality, but in Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2, there’s some old dude you can talk to that raises your level by one instantly, so long as you have the bills.
You missed The Legend of Mystical Ninja series.
Where the main attack was literally throwing money.
It actually doesn't take too long to mine for resources in ME2 since you only need 3 upgrades to make sure no one dies
That old Forza game takes me back
Lets be real ellen would get first in a beauty contest
Andy would
She is damn gorgeous love that accent too!!
Do worst paywalls in gaming.
im sad you didnt say spore in the civ stage you can buy cities making it easier
and you can buy planets in the space stsge sry i forgot about it when writing the first one
Nah, you don't buy planets in space stage...you buy entire solar systems. I have eradicated a surprising number of space-faring races by buying them out.
Thesaurus Rex sry i have not played in a while
It's incredibly inefficient to do that though.
Best use your cash to spam aerial units and conquer everything >:D
ThSadomasohista or just use the (forgot the name) buy everything for 48000
8:55 got me... and i laughed louder than i should :D
Wow, that pollution joke was 10/10. Wasnt expecting that. Lol
Top Schumacher pun.
I'm more of a fan of Mika HAL-kkonen's driving though; it's a nice development upon the winning ways of Stirling GLaDoss.
If they do a "7 times you got the best ending with money" video, I'm sure we'll need a "WAH" counter.
Y'know... Wario...
yeah.
I have like 24000 gold in Skyrim and that can solve any problem the game throws at me easy
I had 1.3 million gold in my Last skyrim playthru.
Seems like a good topic for a vid: X times you were better off outsourcing the job. My fav example was a veritable Gunship 2000. Set all difficulty options to max, then start the mission, don't even switch the engine on, and have your wingmen do everything on their own. Then reap medals and honors - the only medal you're not getting for that is the Purple Heart.
Wait, money in Lego games is called Studs?
HELL YEAH
