@@OggiOggiOggi Good point. I should have said pixelated art styles are just as fun to play as accurate, detailed art styles. For instance I still enjoy games like Jump Man Junior.
That's just how being an adult works. When you're a kid, everything is new, so it gets stored in your long-term memory. As an adult, so few things are new, so everything gets stored in short-term memory. So we don't really remember it once it's happened. "Last week? I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning!" And then what we do remember feels so recent because it's a long-term memory, but you look at the calendar and in the mirror and so much time has passed but it felt like yesterday what is this sorcery? If you want time to slow down again, you need to be constantly seeking out new experiences, and I don't mean new video games haha. Travel to new places, try new cuisines, meet new people etc. If your life consists of the same things every day, time will keep feeling like it's going too fast, because nothing new is happening to make you stop and take stock. It's why some people have kids, to live vicariously through them and not feel like their lives are just passing them by.
I was 95% convinced that the game came out last summer, not two summers ago. Is this what getting old feels like? Will this only get worse as time goes on?
2 years closer to death and decay, end of all joy that could be extracted from life or the long-awaited end to your pain, however you choose to look at it.
I had to confirm myself if his first vampire survivors was actually uploaded two years ago or he was fooling us all. What is happening, I literally feel it was 6 months ago. But one thing we remember.. GARLIC ALL THE WAY
The game has so many secrets and hidden characters. The spellbook and special maps, some are one time plays. The game is super fun and quirky and its had some pretty nice collabs. Been well worth my money. Plus Co-op is pretty sweet.
I got the game 4 months ago and have been playing non-stop. I made the mistake of using a walkthrough for the maun campaign, but I've been raw-dogging the dlc's. So much to discover. Asmomgold is playing it the right way, not looking up the meta 😁
What are the odds? I don't follow and watch Asmongold anywhere, but here on RUclips. I was just rewatching his full Vampire Survivors VODs and this pops up right after I'm done. Holy Garlic God has returned!
The ball chracter Leda still exists. I think the dev may have changed the means to aquire the character so they became locked / hidden for Asmon. I still have the character myself but have played a bit during 2023 so may have unlocked Leda after this change if it was made. Can't think of why else its not in Asmon's character selection.
It just occurs to me, the evolved pentagram jingle is the Time Freeze power up from Hudson's Adventure Island III for the NES. Took me years to notice.
I thought this all looked really familiar and went back to the beginning to check if he mentioned it but no. This level is based on contra hard corps. It was a game on sega Genesis. It was a side scroller and it was really hard as a 5 year old. The floating powerups the gun the badguys. All of this is from contra. Brownie was the best little brother character (me) because he was the shortest and most of the badguy bullets when over his head.
I used to play on PC and just got it for my phone, yesterday I played for 20 hours with one short break 😅, split screened it with RUclips watching Asmond play at the same time
Oh boy, there's quite a bit stuff added since then. Not just the DLC (two crossovers), but also just free updates. All of that comes with new maps, new weapons, new power ups. I'm literally a point where any new character I can instaly beef up to god status cause of zillions of money I got and I still like to fire it up for that chill game of killing everything on the map Oh yeah, there's also local multiplayer of up to four and I think the devs are working on online multiplayer too.
Vampire Survivors started a gaming trend and has dominated it. They got the Contra crossover, and it makes me very excited about a CastleVania crossover. There is even a new character you unlock that is an easter egg for sure. It is crazy to think they got the go ahead on these collabs when at the beginning it was straight up CasteVania stolen assets. Such an amazing and just keeps going.
@@blahblahblah9215 haha bro my homie bought a "console" thats just a USB flash drive, you plug it into a TV and you have all the SNES games there we often play Contra and other stuff while having some beers and chilling on weekends
@@blahblahblah9215 Guilty. I played Contra a ton as a kid, and every play through included the standard 99 lives cheat. I guess the participation trophy era started a while ago but damn it was some good family game time. Memories.
VS has a new DLC called "Ode to Castlevania" - that DLC wipes the floor with the other DLCs - Draculas castle is so big, with more than 30 bosses and over 20 new characters to unlock. Highly recommended !
I bought Vampire Survivors back then because of Asmon and always loved him playing it, idk what it is about this game buts its somehow very relaxing and addicting, I put 165 hours into it myself and it's such a simple game
Thankyou for playing it again. Ive needed some more chill content after the past week of insanity, a little break before everything really starts to fall apart lol
Honest question: Did you ever play the original NES era Contra? I had it when I was like 6 years old so this is giving me a ton of nostalgia! The map is a clever mix of both the first stage from the NES and bits from the SNES era version. The remixed cover songs are on point too.
Watching asmongold call the time freeze wand garbage really hurts my soul. That thing fully upgraded is OP as hell. Edit: just jumped back into VS and oh man this game is so addicting still. I wish they released a physical version of this with a soundtrack or something. I'd buy it instantly
Vampire Survivors power creep is real, true, but remember that you very much can change what powers you have activated to customize difficulty. This is still a very well made game

he played Halls of Torment last year, which is very similar

Because they have never played contra. They have only been playing garbage games.
First thing I thought when I saw that bridge...
I'm a simple man: I see Garlic on the thumbnail and click on it.
So frustrating to see home constantly pick the wrong thing.
2 years? What the hell? Did we do the Quantum leap?
2 years have gone by super fast
Those bosses are form super contra SNES alias super Probotector. What a great game btw
I just finished 100% this game. So happy to see Asmon play this gem again.
This game is the best in the whole genre. It beats all versions that came after it. The simplicity and style is unprecedented.
2 years is not ok, i remember this entire rabbit hole like it was yesterday and especially the reaper killing arc.
He should try Nordic Ashes. It's a good game in the same genre but scandinavian mythology.
You dont need to do the DLC map but the DLC has DLC like the upgrade boxes on the map making it way easier to unlock the new stuff.
"I go with the guns every time". In case you guys forgot that Asmon was Texan.
Just started watching the 2 year old vampire videos...then a video pops up 5 mins ago for for a new vampire video. 😮
so glad hes back at it again with the vampires survivors !! some of his best commentary... winners win !!!
Spoiler: Bill is the Gun Devil
Edit: I'm pretty sure it costs Twitch 2-3mill every time he streams Vampire Survivor

Thankyou for playing it again. Ive needed some more chill content after the past week of insanity, a little break before everything really starts to fall apart lol
Truly a Video Quality Survival
The soundtrack reminds me of Rise of The Triad - "Going down the fast way". Thank you Civvie for the knowledge.
Ludicrous gibs!
Lol is that Contra?
This music and pickups are awesome.
I can't believe it's been 2 years already
This game was my intro to Asmongold what a short 2 years lol
I never thought a new vampire survivors video would come, I've been researching the old ones over and over. What a treat.

With that being said, will Asmon play Contra with Mc? 👀 These guys needs to play some co-op or 2player games for the good old days.
He's played Cuphead, but not Contra. Fake gamer detected.
Bros going INSANE when that bgm hits in the beginning. This composer is an actual god
43:50 the guns are good but some of the new evolutions literally turn you into a god.
At 41 timer of this video. That alien is from Super Contra 3 boss. LOL. Which is also own by Konami. I can't believe the easteregg he put for the DLC.
Was watching his first playthrough, when my 3rd daughter was born. Helped with the sleepness nights
Bro really didn't recognize the main guys from Contra. Sad day for gamers.
Asmonbold > I don't see the boss
me > mate .. I don't see ANYTHING .. o.o
Can’t wait till he finally plays risk of rain 2
And Hades 1&2... poor guy has too long of list of games to play lmaooo
This game makes me miss Geometry Wars.

just picked this up randomly on switch last month cuz bored. I am surprisingly amused and entertained by it. It is so simple, yet so random and fun.
Leda, aka ballsack, can glitch since update. You need to refind them from the bottom of the tower again or use their cheat code.
this music is like Contra music and the R and the flying power ups are the same as well as the bridge design lol
Why is Poe sending out knockback pulses? My Poe has never done that.
That's likely an arcana effect you're talking about, the healing arcana sends out damaging pulses whenever your character heals.
@@grandam67yt24 That seems to be what's happening. I've never tried that arcana before and had no idea it did knockback like that.

You damn right it's too loud! *plays air guitar*
The Adventures of the GARLIC GOD are what got me watching Asmon in the first place! Love to see it.
we need to get him to play Santa Claus
I feel they stole some of there design from contra with the powerups.
my favorite part of these videos is when he maxes out everything and transforms into an oil painting
the original "changed my life" game has returned
Great to see that Vampire Survivors is still changing Asmon's life to this day.
The Contra throwback is awesome!
This game is insanly good i hope they make DLCs for it forever
It feels refreshing watching someone play without min/max everything.
