Hey guys! This episode of ABH is a reupload from January of 2016! This was a really fun video to do on Theorists and it was great to work with Danny! First new Brief History of 2018 should be out next week! Happy New Year & DFTBA :D
If I made a game and it was in a retro style, I'd make it have a CDI cartridge for the case and give people copies with it in a sandwich bag. Maybe one day that dream will happen
Here i was thinking "Woah, is Danny recovered from his flu already? I mean he does sounds kinda nasaly here..." and then i see that it's a reupload. Looking back, Danny actually does get sick very often.
Us Homestucks know the story of the new King's Quest all too well unfortunately. Don't get me wrong, it is an amazing game. But the way it was revived was very scummy.
I remember playing through KQ6 as a kid in the 90s. I'd love to see a Brief History episode on the Myst series. I think that could be super interesting.
While I appreciate learning about it's history, I still won't buy the new King's Quest. If people don't know, there is some history behind the game and The Odd Gentleman. A completely different company came to them with their own point and click adventure game based loosely based on a webcomic. The game is called Hiveswap and the lead developer and writer, Andrew Hussie, put a lot of trust in The Odd Gentleman. He went personally to their studio across the country and gave them a lot of money to create this game. Like, a ton of money. The studio happily agreed. This was more than five years ago. A couple months after, Hussie came back to check on progress for the game. All they had to show was a single, empty room, a barely notable character, and it didn't even control. Hussie took back the project, and went to their studio to also take back the money. However, they refused to give him the money. He can't take back the money either, because it'd be illegal. Furious, he went back to the project and made his own team, and now, over five years later we have Hiveswap. And now you wonder, what did The Odd Gentleman do with the money? Under Hussie's nose, they used one hundred percent of the money for these King's Quest games. There are better stories online, but I at least need a few people who watch this to know. Please like so more people see this.
Here's the issue, that has yet to be proven, one tumblr post making claims with no other sources or evidence isn't enough proof for me. I'm not saying I support Odd Gentleman in the matter, but I spent hours researching this very thing and the only source was the ONE tumblr post, so I won't condemn Odd Gentleman until I see much more proof.
revenile While I agree with you, a game shouldn't take as long as it did for Hiveswap to come out. Especially with the time that it took to make that one crappy trailer. While we may not know exactly what happened, there's still overwhelming evidence for it, especially in accordance with the timing.
Sine Nomine what about the thousands of people that backed Hiveswap? If I told you people in your government used all the money of your taxes last year to get some nice vacation in the Caribbean, would you just ask how the weather was?
not a pc gamer in the 90's so I never got into King's Quest but I knew about it so it is fun to learn about it here nice to hear about this from people who actually care
I'm late but there's these guys Phoenix Online Studios who made a breathtaking fanmade sequel called The Silver Lining. It's actually insanely good and takes place in the land of the green isles but everything's remastered and gorgeous.
Hey Footofaferret! If you ever decide to cover Laura Bow, or the Monkey Island games, or Grim Fandango, will you please reach out to PushingUpRoses as the guest? Her content is amazing, and she has a lifelong love of those games!
Forgot the part where the odd gentlemen stole all their money from homestuck :33. The rest was pretty dope though, God I miss old school Sierra games...
VII was my first KQ game, and I absolutely love it to this day! And I love MoE, it kinda gave me the creeps when first playing it, hearing those zombies breathing behind you...*shudder*
Hey guys!
This episode of ABH is a reupload from January of 2016! This was a really fun video to do on Theorists and it was great to work with Danny!
First new Brief History of 2018 should be out next week!
Happy New Year & DFTBA :D

Hey did anybody notice at 1:34 softporn adventure?
Gruffe Outdated i did
Hey I'm Dan!
I'm also Dan!
*Daaaaaannn.....*
I’ve missed Danny’s voice so much you don’t understand how much of a blessing this is
I'd like to go and buy my games in Ziplock bags in today's world.
If I made a game and it was in a retro style, I'd make it have a CDI cartridge for the case and give people copies with it in a sandwich bag.
Maybe one day that dream will happen
Imagine buying games made today in 5.25 or 3.5 inch floppy disks, now THAT would be crazy.
That's called drugs
thebahooplamaster You are everywhere my dude! I'm taking on Tekking's art competition, wish me luck 💪💪💪
Well, games can be addicting so.....
“Did I say six sex? Oh paging Dr. Freud”
Dan you sweet boy
This is the first video of Danny slowly leaving game grumps and traveling from channel to channel as the hobo of RUclips
Thing is that the Odd Gentlemen were *supposed* to be developing hiveswap, but just took the money instead, to develop kings quest.
Too bad that TOG stole money to make the last installment from the Homestuck game Kickstarter...
"Dumb Ferrets Throwing Bats Around" oml 😂
I feel like Dan's voice is perfect for reading children's books.
Dan's laugh is the purest sound in the whole multiverse
I thought they were gonna mention how the Kings Quest devs stole Hiveswap money.
can we get a leisure suit brief history
Yes!
I don't care much about kings quest, I just love Danny
Here i was thinking "Woah, is Danny recovered from his flu already? I mean he does sounds kinda nasaly here..." and then i see that it's a reupload. Looking back, Danny actually does get sick very often.
Us Homestucks know the story of the new King's Quest all too well unfortunately. Don't get me wrong, it is an amazing game. But the way it was revived was very scummy.
The bloopers are genuinely the best part xD
Never knew this video existed. Thank you for letting me know so much about a great series!
Kings Quest 6 will always hold a special place in my heart. The dancing skeletons easter egg is my favorite part.
I remember playing through KQ6 as a kid in the 90s.
I'd love to see a Brief History episode on the Myst series. I think that could be super interesting.
Oh shoit is Danny
Supersam 40121 I thought he died
Jesus Christ this video is from 2016
Afonso Gomes yeah I got that

so the odd gentlemen used money from a game that would never sell to anyone but homestuck fans and made a great game with it? Nice. :3
Trogloglation Why do you care more about justice for video games than justice for people?
Sine Nomine what about the thousands of people that backed Hiveswap? If I told you people in your government used all the money of your taxes last year to get some nice vacation in the Caribbean, would you just ask how the weather was?
HE KIDNAPPED DAN
Tell Arin Quick
Trey Hades #bringdannybacktothegrumps
This video was originally made in 2016 guy’s check the description
CALL ARIN
CALL POLICE
CALL ANYONE
Even when just reading facts, Danny can make anything seem immersive :)
Get well soon Dan. Can't wait to see you back on GG when you're over the flu!
That ending compalation really got me 😂
Danny is so cute XD Awesome episode!
Dan, come back!!!
Dan better continue Doki Doki Literature Club.
also, the guy from King's Quest is the guy in that one Minecraft painting
Hi Dan. didn’t expect to see you here.
we need 'the history of pink guy'
Underated Game, happy that he got a brief history
"I'm on a show called game grumps everyday"
"Everyday"
*_E V E R Y D A Y_*
The Homestar Runner "GOOD GRAPHICS!" had me pause to laugh for a while! Great memories!
Shame The Odd Gentlemen had to embezzle Kickstarter funds from Hiveswap and screw over that project entirely to make King's Quest as good as it is.
Well at least there's new videos with Danny being uploaded somewhere!
The biggest issue is that The Odd Gentleman embezzled funds from Hiveswap to revive King Quest. This drastically hurts both series.
2:27 the explosion actually made me jump
A kinda need a brief history of Duke Nukem, Wolfenstein, Quake and Doom with LGR
MAKE IT HAPPEN
La Estación De Poder Look up RetroAhoy Wolfintein/Doom/Quake, they are amazing
Oh my gosh. Danny is like the cutest human being alive. :)
2:40 HAHA very funny...the fact that u made a pun out of Big the Cat 👏👏👏
this game brings back so many memories
How come you guys didnt mention when The Odd Gentlemen stole money form Hiveswap?
Clueless Cat It's not confirmed that it happened and there is no hard evidence.
Markxl1 I don’t know dude.....a lot of clues point to it
I remember playing these games my first home computer gaming experience! Great video!
i thought danny died
oh this was 2016 nvm
Game Grumps is DYING without you !
DUUUDEEE that should be your new outro. DFTBA (on the screen it says 'Dumb Ferrets Throwing Bats around')
not a pc gamer in the 90's so I never got into King's Quest but I knew about it so it is fun to learn about it here nice to hear about this from people who actually care
8:51 That was a sudden change of style.
Gotta Love Danny.
I hope they make a sequel to the 2014 Kings quest game with Gwendolyn
you should do a brief history on the Nostalgic critic or The AVGN I love would love to see one on either of them
why is this unlisted?
I'm late but there's these guys Phoenix Online Studios who made a breathtaking fanmade sequel called The Silver Lining. It's actually insanely good and takes place in the land of the green isles but everything's remastered and gorgeous.
Do one on the Yogscast dude! They basically defined Minecraft let's plays and they deserve more coverage.
I always love me some Danny voice
I've already seen this but I'll watch it again.
It feels like your shouting during this video i love it so much xD
Dan didn't know what show he was recording for lol
Oh my god I just love Danny’s delicious voice
God damn i know its not the right channel but we need ross and dan doing the rest of the chapters of king quest GOD DAMNIT!
Speaking of Kings Quest 2015... PLEASE Danny! Continue to play it on Game Grumps! PLEASE!
Man did you hafta tell Danny this was for Game Theory to get him on a brief history xD nice job 👍🏻 lol
is the music in the background wing fortress from Sonic the Hedge 2
Yes! Danny content!
Please make a brief history of the complete collection of King's quest
Thanks Dan!
I was wondering if you could do one of these for Elder Scrolls?
Thanks in advance
King's Quest V and VI are my childhood :)
0:22 Hey, it's the Brothers Chaps, creators of Homestar Runner!
Hey Footofaferret! If you ever decide to cover Laura Bow, or the Monkey Island games, or Grim Fandango, will you please reach out to PushingUpRoses as the guest? Her content is amazing, and she has a lifelong love of those games!
Is this a re-upload? i think i remember seeing this a long time ago
Looks like Danny DID know--- some sweet ass King's Quest trivia
Nice job my dude
The Game Grumps channel is dying without you Danny
Scoobert Doobert no it's not. Stop being hyperbolic.
Oooo good word
+1 Style
Forgot the part where the odd gentlemen stole all their money from homestuck :33. The rest was pretty dope though, God I miss old school Sierra games...
Best episode of did you know gaming
Please do a Brief History on Nostalgia Critic
The last time I was this early high school still seemed exiting.
I played King's Quest 2015 cuz it is on Steam, and really loved it. Such a delightful game, very funny also.
My friend, how about a The History of GameXplain? That would be pretty fun! I wonder if you can make it short.
VII was my first KQ game, and I absolutely love it to this day! And I love MoE, it kinda gave me the creeps when first playing it, hearing those zombies breathing behind you...*shudder*
Poor Dan is sick, hope he gets better.
I prob saw this but thank god I don’t remember it,super fun to watch
Glad to see Danny is okay.
Man I need to play the old Kings Quest games, the closest thing I've played was Peasants Quest.
You should do a brief history on the nostalgia critic
Funny thing is that 7 introduced me to the series
When you thought Danny was sick is all ok
*edit* o it’s a reupload sorry
Did you kidnap Dan?! Please return to Grumps at your earliest convenience.
i shall slay those odd gentlemen with the might of 10,000 homestucks.
Hi, footofaferret please make a video on How do you write video editing script ???
I’m a simple girl, I see Dan, I click
It makes sense that Danny would be talking about Sierra games lol he loves them
aw man now I wanna play that new King's Quest, goddamn it
Can you do ABH of Megaman, i feel like it would fit in with the old school games that you focus on
I hope Dan is feeling better.
Hey I like how Danny is like "I play video games every day" yet he sounds really really sick. Ironic, considering he is out for being sick.
Darren Grey this is a reupload from 2016
I was told Dan is sick? I guess Arin just wanted to do Game Grumps on his own
