@@rabbidluigi I have watched almost ever single one of your countdowns, and I really don't trust you on that. You better not be lying bro, cause you will break your son's heart.
SUGGESTION LIST: Sorry if people think I’m spamming, just want to keep a solid list of my suggestions Top 5 games with the best voice acting Top 5 side characters more interesting than the protagonist Top 5 situational power ups/weapons Top 5 story modes in fighting games Top 5 visual novels Top 5 rivals in video games Top 5 playable villains Top 5 “meta” video games And yes, I know that RL has already done “Top 5 Rival Battles” and “Top 5 Games where you Play the Villain”, which aren’t the same thing as what I’m suggesting
"There's plenty of ways to approach difficulty without throwing the player under a bus, and expecting them bench press it" Lost it there. I think that's going in the list of really good quotes.
"Battletoads isn't impossible by any means" Unless of course you're doing 2-player mode and make it up to the level where player 2's controls _stop working altogether._ (Also, shout out to Mini Laddd for the cameo at 5:30!)
My problem with Battletoads is that the game is simultaneously well-designed as an experience and aggressively anti-player. The level design is well-carved for progress in most cases, but the player often has to be pixel perfect to actually beat it. Add to this how, despite having a six-hit-long life bar in the corner, the game pulls an absurd amount of instant death traps in a game which has twelve (technically thirteen) levels and only three continues to get through it, balanced by the awesome kind of soundtrack David Wise could pull off, and you have a recipe for a stew meant to hurt people from the inside out. On a more personal note, Battletoads also has a hard time deciding what the hell kind of game it wants to be. At its core, it's meant to be a beat-em-up, except enemies don't die until the last hit of your punch combo. Starting off, it has the angled plane to remind you of an arcade beat-em-up, but the next level sends you down a mine shaft on a bungee cord, then there's another brief beat-em-up section before your first major obstacle: the Turbo Tunnel full of instant-death walls. If you survive that, it's a side-scrolling platformer, then another Turbo Tunnel-esque stage with occasional beat-em-up parts, more platforming, an... auto-scrolling flight level? And from there, the angled view is done, replaced with mostly platforming levels aside from the worst idea ever: Clinger Winger. Battletoads is all over the place with its gameplay but tries to hang on to that sliver of a core to keep you from being too confused. And I am not entirely sure if the game gives you enough time to learn its mechanics well unless you play multiple times. ...I don't know what to think of Battletoads. It seems like a cool franchise, but does it know what it's doing? :( On a more self-assured note, I don't want to be The Guy. I never want to be The Guy.
As someone whos played the first and second one like 7 times each, along with 4 playthroughs of demons souls, the bed of chaos and the crystal cave are some of the cheapest ways to kill a player, especially when the crystal dust glitches out in ur game, making u follow it to your death in dark souls 1. Tbh thats the only really cheap thing, the anor londo archers are overrated and so is orn and smough, they never killed me once, on any playthrough solo
Started playing the remaster on switch and this is my first ever. But so far i can't call it unfair, it just kicks you in the dick a lot. Except Capra Demon and lower Undead Burg... Fuck that shit. Going in blind it is really close to bs imo. The closest i have seen it get.
On a side note, Cuphead is probably one of the most fair looking games I've ever seen. Unlike a lot of games, when you kill the boss, attacks after the boss can't kill you. And the hit box is actually really lenient and almost every attack is telegraphed and possible to dodge.
Smart Alec Some bosses were pretty BS imo like Rumor Honeybottoms and Cala Maria, but yeah, overall the game is pretty solid and fair, despite still being incredibly challenging.
Mental Popcorn That’s what I added “imo.” I found a majority of the bosses to be fair, but those are the ones I’d *personally* consider unfair because Rumor’s attacks are nearly impossible to telegraph the first few times you face her due to how unpredictable they are and Cala Maria has this annoying attack that turns you into a stone and makes you pretty much immobile for several seconds. I still managed to defeat them, but that’s besides the point.
I found that Wally Warbles, Hilda Burg, Cagney Carnation we're a pain on the hardest difficulty. Rumor is fine as long you stay in the middle of the room. I didn't find Mariea too difficult, I didn't find the other bosses impossible though, just hard
Top Five Most Important Videogame Franchise Histories. The kind of videogame franchises where when you talk about them, you basically have to talk about the history of videogames themselves.
Great video as always RL. :). A couple of ideas for the pile: - Top 5 Characters You Hate Loving - Top 5 Rage Inducing Multiplayer Series / Games - Top 5 Stupidest Haircuts in Video Games
The difference is that MXC is fair, Takeshi's Castle isn't. MXC pretty much took out most/all of the random mechanics from Takeshi's castle, along with the utterly unfair final fight where the boss literally has two waterhoses while you have a squirt gun.
Rabbidluigi, first of all, I love your top list, you take me back to my childhood with every video and I will always be grateful for that ;) For the #1 game: Takeshi's challenge: Actually, there were plenty of commercials leading up to the game launching date, each commercial was a clue in how to progress the game. Then again, it was ridiculously difficult to decipher, and even with that information, all of what you said is completely true.
You should do a video on the most creative ways of doing damage/combating enemies in a video game. Maybe include the pins/psyches from The World Ends With You and/or the paintbrush mechanics from Okami and/Or Okami Den
Kirby Star Allies final boss: The friend hearts actually damages the final boss, literally defeating it with friendship. Also, you can damage enemies using gusts of air from Kirby breathing out after gulping air during a chain jump.
Top 5 (or 10) Robot masters and/or mavericks. Also worth mentioning how great these countdowns are, to the point where I rewatch some. Keep up the great work!
See this is exactly why I love games like monster hunter, they always seem fair even some of the more difficult fights and stay enjoyable because of it,.... Until extreme bullehemoth anyway
I sometimes feel my week isn’t complete without a Sunday RabbidLuigi video. I should probably get checked to make sure this isn’t due to a weird medical condition, but I think that’s a compliment! So thanks!
If you haven't played "I wanna be the boshi" i would give it a go. It's a super hard fan based game based off of I wanna be the guy. Also check out MoonMoon_ow on twitch. He plays a lot of challenging games and is a pretty entertaining streamer. Cheers bro.
Your uploads are what I look forward to every week. Awesome stuff. Even when talking about previously mentioned games, like I Wanna Be The Guy, you can make things interesting. You have a really cool perception and understanding of video games. Also, here's a countdown suggestion: Top five intense moments in video games.
I agree on the Mario Party decision- my friends call it the destroyer of friendships game, and I can see why they call it that. Also, that is a very respectful honor you are giving by wearing that poppy, a good honor. All in all, a great video.
I love games that have that perfect level of difficulty that it's hard but makes you believe that you can overcome it with time and patience, making you playing it more and more.
Fun fact about Beat Takeshi's Challenge. Everyday the Japanese Nintendo call center was bombarded with calls asking for help with this game and even they didn't know what to do. Most of the time they ended the call by playing a pre-recorded message saying, "Sorry, but the person helping you has died." I'm not kidding.
Deaths in 'I Wanna Be the Guy' remind me of the Lazy Gun from one of Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. Point the gun at someone, a frozen turkey falls on them. Move the character to the left, a wild save point appears and smashes him.
Really enjoyed this video. I like the way you go a bit deeper into the reasons why things are unfair or the history of the game, etc. Sets you apart from other TOP 10er youtubers. The way you write, I think you should be doing deeper analysis on games as opposed to clickbaity top 10s
Me, my best friend, and our girlfriends (who where also best friends) use to play Mario Party on the Wii together all the time. Boys VS girls. There's one game I will never forget. We were on the hotel map, there were 3 turns left, and the girls were minutes away from their first victory against us. Within 3 turns we were able to systematically take over enough hotels to take the win. Ever since then my best friend and I have had a saying we use any time the odds are stacked against us. It was something my girlfriend said during that game. "No one can win in the last 3 turns."
Just a quick comment about I Want to be the Guy. I think it's worth stating, but there was a game called Rick Dangerous which far preceded IWTBTG by a mile. It was an Indiana Jones type title with all the unfairness of you expect in IWTBTG - and it was actually sold, not given away free at its origin. A flash version of the game exists online to play (for free). It might have been worth an honorable mention as the probable inspiration for IWTBTG
100% Orange Juice takes 1 look at Mario Party and laughs. You want to ruin any and all friendships? Grab 3 future ex-friends and have the 4 of you slowly lose all sense of sanity at the madness that is cute anime characters playing the most sadistic board game known to man.
Ah, IWBTG... a nice warmup for the more challenging stuff I've pulled off over the years. Super Meat Boy for one, The End is Nigh for another, others I can't recall being "stupid hard" off the top of my head... Battletoads isn't on the list yet, but I'll get around to it eventually.
there was one underrated unfair game i found on steam a few days ago called "Rage in peace", and it did a really great job as a rage game using the concept that you, a depressed guy will die today with your head cut off, but you are not told when. The thing is that every single thing tries to cut your head off! Even in normal places, you will never know what's going to happen! Some of these traps actually made me laugh out loud!
"Mashing your hand into the hard plastic cause that's what everyone else is doing" "that's a bit unfair" No... Having to do what everyone else is doing is the definition of fair
Battletoads is one of my favorite games of all time. The graphics, gameplay, music and level variety for the time were amazing at the time. I by gods did you get bragging rights if you'd completed this back in the day before save states!
A couple of silly ideas of mine: Top 5 games that reoccur most in your lists Top 5 topics I wont Make a list for The former might make a good April fools joke next year, if I do say so muhself
I'm having scarred flashbacks of Duck Hunt the game that caused me to utter the "F" word for the first time for obvious reasons. And similar reasons are why I had a sadistic smile on my face when that hound of trolling was leaked as an unlockable Smash 4 character.
My suggestion for a future video? top 5 video games created by one developer or a very small development team (if 5x single developer games can't be found) Also I dig your (not so new anymore) intro screen. But will your outro screen get a revamp anytime soon?
I was expecting number 1 to be an EA game or at least one game from the cesspool that is Steam Greenlight, but you made a good choice for it. Perhaps you could do a list about background/side characters in video games more likeable or interesting than the main characters, or “ensemble darkhorses” as TV Tropes calls them?
I think, at least as a more unconventional entry, (Forbidden) Siren would deserve a spot on a list like this. If you don't know exactly what you're doing you'll find yourself with a "wtf just happened" ending and desperately replaying section after section to find the one ridiculous measure you have to take to unlock new paths to get some more sense out of the story. (*cough* frozen towel *cough*)
Maybe he used to hate them but eventually stopped? I mean 1986 to 2016 is a fairly big time leap, it's not unreasonable to think someone could change their mind about the medium, especially with how much games have advanced since then
Honestly half expected XCOM to be on this list. Not because of how the RNG is, but for the fact that it rounds UP the to-hit numbers if it's .5 or over. So 100% can actually be 99.5% to hit and the game decides you actually missed. Lost my entire squad to a 100% chance to hit rocket that missed and hit the building they were hiding behind.
@@D_YellowMadness There's a lot... FURI's DLC added a boss which makes the entire game look like tutorial (not even exaggerating), Hollow Knight added a DLC which adds a 50+ bosses bossrush in which you cant die and only get health restored once every 10 or so bosses, plus added many of the hardest bosses yet AND at the end you have to fight a remixed version of the end-game boss (again, without dying once anywhere), there's Monster Hunter DLC which always adds crazy G Rank bosses (even MHW the easiest added Tempered Deviljho which is really hard)) etc.
For a great video on Takeshi's Challege watch the JonTron video. "I don't even think it would be possible without a built in cheat" -JonTron on the last segment of the game.
I would say that "unfair" games are games that change the rules midstream, even if the rules are wierd and unintutive you can learn those, but if the rules change on a whim there's nothing to learn or memorize.
There's something about bullet storms in oldschool SHMUP's that I have a deep love of. I loved them as a kid, and they are the only hard thing in video games I can be bothered to deal with, as an adult. Now I play a modern title and navigating the inventory becomes a major "most unfair" pain in the backside that I have no time to devote to. Yes, I know, a middle aged guy seemingly moaning about modern games... But not really. It's just that what little time I do spend with games these days always seems to get eaten away at further by a whole lot of busy work that has no real meaning or impact. I loved The Witcher III, but all that inventory stuff was just fluff, at the end of the day. I needed a tincture for all the time I spent looking at an inventory screen (rather than enjoying the story and world) that was just full of... tat... rubbish. 47 mouse testicles and several chunks of dog tallow make a fine +2 damage bonus potion that lasts until the next time I scratch my chin? Oh, piss off. I'll just play the game and some situations will be mildly more testing. Fine. Modern BS clutter is "most unfair" to the average gamer over the age of 25 with real responsibilities.
These unfair games are nothing compared to real life
Well said.
So right
Too real, too real.
It was too obvious a pick for the list, only reason it was excluded
Too OP, please nerf.

As much as I love them Pokemon would do well on both list.
I really like that first idea

Metal Gear Survive. It's unfair such a horror exists in this world.
I agree
You should see the epitaph he gave the series in his Worst Games of 2018 video. Genuinely heart wrenching, and I’m not even a fan of Metal Gear!
My problem with Battletoads is that the game is simultaneously well-designed as an experience and aggressively anti-player. The level design is well-carved for progress in most cases, but the player often has to be pixel perfect to actually beat it. Add to this how, despite having a six-hit-long life bar in the corner, the game pulls an absurd amount of instant death traps in a game which has twelve (technically thirteen) levels and only three continues to get through it, balanced by the awesome kind of soundtrack David Wise could pull off, and you have a recipe for a stew meant to hurt people from the inside out.
On a more personal note, Battletoads also has a hard time deciding what the hell kind of game it wants to be. At its core, it's meant to be a beat-em-up, except enemies don't die until the last hit of your punch combo. Starting off, it has the angled plane to remind you of an arcade beat-em-up, but the next level sends you down a mine shaft on a bungee cord, then there's another brief beat-em-up section before your first major obstacle: the Turbo Tunnel full of instant-death walls. If you survive that, it's a side-scrolling platformer, then another Turbo Tunnel-esque stage with occasional beat-em-up parts, more platforming, an... auto-scrolling flight level? And from there, the angled view is done, replaced with mostly platforming levels aside from the worst idea ever: Clinger Winger. Battletoads is all over the place with its gameplay but tries to hang on to that sliver of a core to keep you from being too confused. And I am not entirely sure if the game gives you enough time to learn its mechanics well unless you play multiple times. ...I don't know what to think of Battletoads. It seems like a cool franchise, but does it know what it's doing? :(
On a more self-assured note, I don't want to be The Guy. I never want to be The Guy.

Ah, IWBTG... a nice warmup for the more challenging stuff I've pulled off over the years. Super Meat Boy for one, The End is Nigh for another, others I can't recall being "stupid hard" off the top of my head... Battletoads isn't on the list yet, but I'll get around to it eventually.
there was one underrated unfair game i found on steam a few days ago called "Rage in peace", and it did a really great job as a rage game using the concept that you, a depressed guy will die today with your head cut off, but you are not told when. The thing is that every single thing tries to cut your head off! Even in normal places, you will never know what's going to happen! Some of these traps actually made me laugh out loud!
Also, whatever this game is at 0:42 , I aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin't having dat shit!!
"Mashing your hand into the hard plastic cause that's what everyone else is doing"
"that's a bit unfair"
No... Having to do what everyone else is doing is the definition of fair
That song at the end! Instantly reminded me of I Wanna Be The Boshy.
...what means that the song originally comes from a different game.
Battletoads is one of my favorite games of all time. The graphics, gameplay, music and level variety for the time were amazing at the time. I by gods did you get bragging rights if you'd completed this back in the day before save states!
A couple of silly ideas of mine:
Top 5 games that reoccur most in your lists
Top 5 topics I wont Make a list for
The former might make a good April fools joke next year, if I do say so muhself
so Rabbidluigi, when's that beard taking over the world?
I'm having scarred flashbacks of Duck Hunt the game that caused me to utter the "F" word for the first time for obvious reasons. And similar reasons are why I had a sadistic smile on my face when that hound of trolling was leaked as an unlockable Smash 4 character.
Props to you for wearing a poppy, dude. We shall remember them x
My suggestion for a future video?
top 5 video games created by one developer or a very small development team (if 5x single developer games can't be found)
Also I dig your (not so new anymore) intro screen. But will your outro screen get a revamp anytime soon?
I feel like there's another category of unfair games, the ones where you explicitly have to spend (real) money in order to advance or succeed.
2:21 I'm probably not the only one who knows the source of that MK8 footage. Bit of a cheeky inclusion
How about: Top 10 Game-Breaking Skips in Video Games?
as someone who (very casually) speedruns getting over it, number 4 speaks to my soul.
I was expecting number 1 to be an EA game or at least one game from the cesspool that is Steam Greenlight, but you made a good choice for it. Perhaps you could do a list about background/side characters in video games more likeable or interesting than the main characters, or “ensemble darkhorses” as TV Tropes calls them?
I have been rinsing your videos i absolutely love your style. British. And is that chopin i hear in the banckground???
I think, at least as a more unconventional entry, (Forbidden) Siren would deserve a spot on a list like this. If you don't know exactly what you're doing you'll find yourself with a "wtf just happened" ending and desperately replaying section after section to find the one ridiculous measure you have to take to unlock new paths to get some more sense out of the story. (*cough* frozen towel *cough*)
I don't think Beat Takeshi hates video games because he was portraying one of the main characters in Yakuza 6!
Maybe he used to hate them but eventually stopped? I mean 1986 to 2016 is a fairly big time leap, it's not unreasonable to think someone could change their mind about the medium, especially with how much games have advanced since then
Top five most impressive speed runs
Honestly half expected XCOM to be on this list.
Not because of how the RNG is, but for the fact that it rounds UP the to-hit numbers if it's .5 or over. So 100% can actually be 99.5% to hit and the game decides you actually missed.
Lost my entire squad to a 100% chance to hit rocket that missed and hit the building they were hiding behind.

Random crits are fair and balanced.
Mario and Luigi games make it satisfying when fighting those challenge bosses.
Top Five Hardest DLC's (Bitterblack Isle, Nioh DLC, etc.)
A Hat in Time's Death Wish mode would have to be on there. For all the wrong reasons.
@@D_YellowMadness That last boss rush tho
@@D_YellowMadness There's a lot... FURI's DLC added a boss which makes the entire game look like tutorial (not even exaggerating), Hollow Knight added a DLC which adds a 50+ bosses bossrush in which you cant die and only get health restored once every 10 or so bosses, plus added many of the hardest bosses yet AND at the end you have to fight a remixed version of the end-game boss (again, without dying once anywhere), there's Monster Hunter DLC which always adds crazy G Rank bosses (even MHW the easiest added Tempered Deviljho which is really hard)) etc.
The beard...
Gonna become the Completionist?
Rabbid Luijirard?
3:49 Actually, I'd make sure everybody used gloves. It would keep our hands in better condition.
Top 5 most wanted video game compilations
For a great video on Takeshi's Challege watch the JonTron video. "I don't even think it would be possible without a built in cheat" -JonTron on the last segment of the game.
I brought up the possibility of a sequel to Takeshi’s Challenge and called it “Son of Takeshi’s Challenge” that was not a good day for me.
I thought today would suck, but then I saw a rabbidluigi upload.
I rang your bell & I'm waiting for your beard to become supreme ruler of the earth and consume me
Ay, Rabbidluigi vid on my birthday! Nice!
I would say that "unfair" games are games that change the rules midstream, even if the rules are wierd and unintutive you can learn those, but if the rules change on a whim there's nothing to learn or memorize.
Oh sweet, I'm here on time and can actually take part in the poll.
There's something about bullet storms in oldschool SHMUP's that I have a deep love of. I loved them as a kid, and they are the only hard thing in video games I can be bothered to deal with, as an adult. Now I play a modern title and navigating the inventory becomes a major "most unfair" pain in the backside that I have no time to devote to. Yes, I know, a middle aged guy seemingly moaning about modern games... But not really. It's just that what little time I do spend with games these days always seems to get eaten away at further by a whole lot of busy work that has no real meaning or impact. I loved The Witcher III, but all that inventory stuff was just fluff, at the end of the day. I needed a tincture for all the time I spent looking at an inventory screen (rather than enjoying the story and world) that was just full of... tat... rubbish. 47 mouse testicles and several chunks of dog tallow make a fine +2 damage bonus potion that lasts until the next time I scratch my chin? Oh, piss off. I'll just play the game and some situations will be mildly more testing. Fine.
Modern BS clutter is "most unfair" to the average gamer over the age of 25 with real responsibilities.
A really bad day made better by Rabbid Luigi's video. Thank you
I appreciate your respect for the veterans and dead of WWI with the poppy. It's small, but it's appreciated
what is the piano music that starts at 4:02? I've played it before but can't place the name anymore
