When you check your journal and it doesn’t match the incredibly specific backstory you’ve created for your character so you have to either rethink the whole thing or delete the character and start over again
The other side of "I don't belong here." The first being, your ridiculous custom character not fitting in with the other characters in any given scene. Of course they are usually opposites.
This is exactly why I prefer games where you just play a specific character (like the Witcher series) over 'you can make your own'. I the end you never can, because the option you would take is bound to be not an option at some point. It's also why TTRPG are so awesome, you actually can truely make the character you want.
That reminds me of Castlevania the Lords of Shadow. There is a story teller journal bit before each level/mission, but rather than the protagonist writing it there's another character writing a jounal over the protagonist's journey and struggles. I actually quite like that game. :)
Your deconstruction of how game elements would really appear is great fun to watch! I loved how the NPC went to take care of his own quest too, well done.
Me: Kills Bandit Leader. Journal: Failed Quest: Find the Little Girl's Long Lost Father. Description: Nothing. You have not met the quest giver. Me: Wait...what?

Cut scene/journal you is different than the you you were crafting. Example Kingdom come deliverance. Henry says he has to go bury his parents the local lord says no I'm not letting you do that I'm okay with that but you literally cannot progress in the game if you don't escape the castle. Later on in the game you talk to some lords and you've got no option but to be a little rude and it's like god damn do you want to lose your head mate.
Your videos make my day (especially the gaming related ones). Liked it before I even watch because every one is high quality. Hope you are enjoying hogwarts legacy if you are playing.
When you check your journal and even it is disappointed in you. Nice try but I and many others have already watched and enjoyed the video on THAT game, I guess we are already brainwashed ooopsie. Me personally am gonna throw myself into the void for such a transgression, pun intended.

Might be possible in the future with ai!
Now you can use the 'Journal writes itself" excuse.
When you hit a save point in the rpg and somehow your character has written an entire novel while walking and fighting
😄
maybe thats how all those journals near dead people are written.

The journal is the twist villain in this game. I'm not sorry for the spoiler, and I'll do it again.
Or are you the twist villain, and the journal is the hero?
@@tyrant-den884 fuck it, the journal is a dick.
I was starting to hear the journal in the pc voice from ' this is not a game. '
*ouchie*
Something tells me that journal doesn't get to the Cloud District very often.
Honestly a self writing journal would be super helpful
Explain the intrusive thoughts.
The detailed, intrusive thoughts.
irl, totally

I’ve uploaded a new video. I should encourage its viewers to subscribe for more dynamite gaming skits. (5/5) threatened.
1/5

Love the twist at the end-
-where we meet the **real** villain.
*ouchie*
I'm really loving the RPG videos, These are your best skits yet Graenolf
I too am loving the "RPG video", These are your best skits yet Graenolf
Time to start gaslighting my TTRPG players with a new magic item
You are an evil genius. I will pray for them. 😈
When you find a mimic but it really wants to do a good job. But it's still a mimic.
Objectively one of the best skits i've seen
o o e e e e e : D
I love that it fits into the lore too, kinda reminds me of Feyfolken III from Morrowind
@@Graenolf fum
Getting some Tom Riddles's diary vibes
I was thinking that, although Tom's diary needed someone else to write something before it could respond. It was completely blank when Harry found it
The character backstory in the Daggerfall journal is insanely detailed.
Reminds me of only having bad dialogue options in skyrim
I'm sorry but limited to questions and an affirmative on accepting quests, isn't bad options it's lack of.
"Thoughts, Solas?"
Not exactly the same, but come on
The book is possessed by Hermaeus Mora lol
This absolutely cracked me 😂 Best belly laugh I've had in ages haha "I DON'T EVEN HAVE A PENCIL!" 🤣
I am not sure what is wrong with me, but I really thought this was going to end with a love confession. 😆
I liked when the journal said "it's journalling time" and journaled all over the place
Your cable managment is going to give me nightmares.
Me: Kills Bandit Leader.
Journal: Failed Quest: Find the Little Girl's Long Lost Father. Description: Nothing. You have not met the quest giver.
Me: Wait...what?
hahaha 😆
I like how GoW has Atreus as the story teller in the journal.. even when he's sick and not there
"ouchie"
that was objectively one of the best gaming skits ever made!
You are rocking that Skyrim/Witcher-esque black shirt and the facial hair 🔥🔥
“Ouchie.” 😂🤣🤣
The outro music slaps!
High Life - the Mini Vandals 😌 sum good stuff
@@Graenolf Awesome! Thank you!!
What a good idea for a game
Where do you even keep a journal that big...
Same place he keeps his dozen specialty and damage type weapons 😏
Tucked behind his back, of course
Lmao, perfection.
The journal has the noblest of pursuits, the pursuit of OYFUM
This just reminded me that Mortal Kombat Deception's konquest mode didn't have a journal so you had to remember the quests yourself
This is why I never read the journal in any game like who you am think I am.
Book of fate
i like at 1:02 when you temporarily British
Erm, really...? Not really.

Can't believe he said screw the Dog, He should be ashamed lol
Honestly a sentient journal in an rpg would be pretty fun. Lol😂
‘Updated my Journal’.
Quest Added: Burn The Journal
Description - Try it B*
Tfw reading from the script is part of the script

I agree.
Holy mother of cable management. :)
Tom Riddle has been doing a lot of work
Why not give him the journal and show him that it writes it himself.
Oblivion. Morrowind. This journal is a lifesaver after months of coming back to the game lol
Need a joel haver collab stat
The ambiguity would be too much
@@Graenolf HAHA perhaps
I would love a self writing journal irl. I want to record my life but it’s so tedious to write every day
It can feel pain, burn it
Pure genius
In eso I headcannon that my character has a magic map, journal, and backpack
My friends say I remind them of an rpg merchant, so I have really been enjoying these videos. :)
Its hermaeusmoraaaaaa
Well I have to like the best gaming skits ever made objectively, don't I?
Updated my journal.
Great! You just gave me an idea for a quest for my D&D party
Your videos make my day (especially the gaming related ones). Liked it before I even watch because every one is high quality. Hope you are enjoying hogwarts legacy if you are playing.
Thank you so much Ben : ) glad you’re here. Yes I’ve played so much Hogwarts! New Top 5 coming probably Thursday on it whoop
@@Graenolf i thought it sounded like the quest we have to save the large animal(no spoilers :) )
spooky
bro looks like Joel but in different font
Literally lmfao
ouchie.
Ouchie
Reminds me of the Stanley Parable
It reminds me of Lord Voldemort's journal from Harry Potter.
Dude, spoiler??
Snape kills Dumbledore.
@@POTTERANDMATRIXFAN It came out 15 or so years ago and was a major plot point. No spoiler warning necessary.
Honestly, if games were realistic, a good 40 percent of playtime would be you stopping to update your journal
OUchie
HM :)
Mmm
Is that tom riddle's diary?
Horcrux??
Shit's blank..why are you lying to us?
It's a Tom Riddle Diary
Hello
no scratchy pencil writing sound effects??? negative 10 out of 10.
You kinda look like an offbrand white pedro pascal
Not really but I love him so we good. Episode 5 of Last of Us was crazy
