Ok, yha, the fact that you start singing a copy righted song in this video, and it's NOT one of the flagged ones that were privatised, is proof that the whole privitisation issue is utter bollox of some sort.
I was kinda hoping you'd run out of lives, just so The Sound of Silence would be interrupted by a life-farming round of "DA DA DADA DA DA DADADA DUM DUM DA DA DA" and then resume.
I Finally finished watching Mario Gives Up, ignoring Super mario world central productions, only to realize all the death montages, jokes, and Singing I was missing in life. Never shall I not watch something Raocow related!!!!!!
Best vid ever. Not for the suffering, because I kinda share the pain even if I don't actually play myself and lose all this time... But for the idea, for the originality, for the performance, for the show.
Wow, that was a LOT of dying, lol, but I guess horse-flying is one of your weaknesses. Some folks have an easier time, some don't. But at least the level was short, so the challenge wasn't as frustrating as many previous levels.
On the whole, not a bad late-game level despite the body count. Way less unfair than other bramble levels in other games.
nice simon&garfunkel bits. very tender. would you consider doing a 2nd hack so you dont get too burned out on this? this game is very....unfair. i commend you for not using savestates.
Tangentially-related story time: I wanted to give a name to my horse in Red Dead Redemption, but I couldn't think of anything. Then, after about the 50th time that he started to run away when I got off to check something, I thought to myself, "Stupid horse."
whats whit all the justin bieber suggestions and the one jeff hardy video, but at least raocow's song was good it reminded me of the movie the graduate
*LP of a cool level, musings on game design/strategy, funny commentary, and an acappella cover of "The Sound Of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel over a death montage.*
That you like Simon & Garfunkel, even if it's just that one song, makes you even more awesome in my book. Singing along with you definitely made seeing you lose so many lives more bearable.
I heard him say, "Oh, level is short. Wasn't expecting it, but whatever." I immediately imagined him losing 50-60 lives after that. Lo and behold, PPR starts to sing and the lives start to drop drastically.
At the beginning I was laughing but then PPRao's voice began to fill me with uncertainty, which is also since the song itself is quite dark and brooding. Ultimately, everything fit together and I'm left very happy. :D
Of all my subscriptions, and I have a lot of subscriptions, raocow is the only channel I actually make a point to watch as part of my daily routine. It's things like this.
On one hand, you seemed to have an off day when playing. But on the other, you really could went to get a couple of them from another level so ease some of the pain.
Fortunately, he'll be doing a much, much, much easier level in SMWCP2.
Raocow you beast! You lost about 70 lifes, you got patience i would have broken the controller and smashed up my computer before i even get close to that!
@csalexander8292 staying quiet while playing in a hard level/muncher mess like this level was helps him focus and get to the end at SOME POINT, even if it's 60 lives later. if you didn't wanna hear it you could have just put some music on. without it, it would have been simply total silence if you didn't notice. would you really have preferred that?
Love your videos, but hated the singing honestly - only because I tuned in for a video game, not singing.... so it was honestly kind of annoying. Still love what you do in general though!
@csalexander8292 If you look at the screen, you'll see that there was still a video game going on. It's not like he just put on a black screen and sang over it. :P
If you watch raocow for video games only and not his voice, well, you can always mute it and put on your own soundtrack. Or just listen to the sound of silence instead of "The Sound of Silence" ;)
Those Bullies are jerks, but you managed to PUSH through the level. I mean, don't you hate it when people SHOVE bramble levels where they aren't welcome? Geez, it's always a THORN in my side when anyone thinks this is a good idea.
Every "wannabe awesome" hack has DKC2 Music in at least 1 level, it uses Yoshi's Island graphics in at least 1 level, it has at least 1 bramble level and it pays homage to DKC2 in at least 1 level. These conditions can appear in 1 level altogether if desired.
*sigh* you will be "so surprised" later on in the game, you wouldn't believe it XP
Why do I watch raocow? For the tags, of course.
