[@Nolan65775]

The real kicker is that there is a Dangerous Hunts game where the story is you are some big-dick big game hunter who has to track the mysterious animal that killed your friend. So you go on this world-wide journey fighting off shit like wolves and bears in North America, Lions and Hyenas in Africa, Tigers in India, Crocodiles in Australia to try and find where your friend was killed...it turns out he was in the Himalayas and the thing that killed him was a fucking Yeti.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

lmao The plot lines for these games are so over the top. I kind of love it though.

[@samfire3067]

Far cry 4 DLC plot:

[@Green-Raccoon777]

Hell of a way to find out Yeti's are real, eh?

[@MiguelSanchezDelVillar]

There is a comment in Mandalore's video that talks about the secret plot of the game, about how the final boss Black Lion was the one who sent the bear and the wolves after Jacob's father and is behind the agresivity of every single animal in the game and his crusade against Jacob and his brother, if you havent seen It yet do It, its gold

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

Mandalore’s comment sections in general are gold

[@ShinigamiSamaH]

You play as a deranged man carrying enough ammo to vaporize Africa, and the collectible of the game are animal skulls? We ARE playing a Warhammer game because this is definitely Khorne related.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Animal skulls for the skull throne

[@artifact2835]

So the average American?

[@artifact2835]

Wait, got a better joke… The average British safari in the 1800s

[@Jonnyg325]

Even Khorne is looking at this going "Damn I think this is a bit much"

[@zel9999]

He's basically the doom guy for animals

[@rokkraljkolesa9317]

something I want to mention: a black panther is any big cat in the Panthera genus with melanism (excess skin pigment) so while you'd typically think of a leopard or jaguar, the final boss of this game still qualifies as a black panther

[@TheLegitWeebs]

xD The more you know.

[@louissteyn6871]

Apparently in lions it is considered attractive but the mutation renders them borderline sterile

[@k96man]

The "moving castle doctrine" bit it has to be one of my favorite things from mandy I've seen

[@lich109]

What's funnier is this game is a sort of remake of the Cabela's game that came out just before it. The games have a very similar plot at first, but where they begin to branch off is when they get to who dies. In the previous installment, the brother dies (not to a bear, he gets killed by a shadow wolf made of living darkness), and your father then gets possessed/manipulated by a demon hyena who lives underground and was brought up to the surface by the military, who were doing animal experimentation on baboons in order to create the perfect army (which you naturally fight in a military base). I would argue that one is even more insane than the one Mandalore played here, and he played that one on stream afterwards. He was unsure of which game was more absurd by the end, since the ridiculous stuff like the devious wildlife is in that too, same with hunting animals by the hundreds.

[@Sure_Ruse_User]

For real?

[@lich109]

@@Sure_Ruse_User Yes.

[@samfire3067]

"hunting". More like war

[@Nirual86]

the plot is more insane, but the gameplay kinda fails it. Think it was a Wii-only game and he also had some bizarre bug (possibly from the emulation) where reloading would break every level for every weapon and the only way to fix that was to get jumped by animals (which automatically reloads your active weapon for a reaction shot and inadvertently fixed the issue for the time being).

[@lich109]

@@Nirual86 It wasn't a Wii only game, it was on other consoles (it's easy to find PS3 footage) and I can't comment on the reloading thing since I never played that version, so I don't know if it was a genuine bug or if he was actually doing something wrong.

[@TheIshakuro]

This whole video is a trip. Laughing so hard you winded yourself is an appropriate response.

[@Desgaroth]

This was one of Mandalores Halloween Specials. For a few years now he searches for some real gems to "review" on Halloween. His "Mystery of the Druids", "Limbo of the Lost", "Anonymous Agony" and "Ring: A Mind Melting Adventure" reviews are all a great time. Though be careful about that last one. Mandalore himself had a rough time to try and make it watchable due to the classic music used in the game, since everyone likes to claim they did the music.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@kabob0077]

21:00 Yeah, in the comments of the video one of the actual DEVS talks about how they originally had a Bull Elephant but then had to quickly change it very late in development to avoid issues or something IIRC.

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

Another dev said at one point a Cabela’s representative was livid at a popup saying “New weapons unlocked!” Saying ‘We don’t sell weapons! We sell firearms!’ Which is just delusional. They had to go back and scrub any use of the word weapon

[@RichDenman]

My family hunts, been a number of times; it is really not for entertainment, there are a large number of more exciting things that require less effort and no death. Hunting is about turning 20$ worth of shotgun shells into 200 lbs. of meat, as well as population control (everyone loves bambi until he comes through your windshield on the highway). The competition and excitement stem from it's necessity, finding value in a rough and grisly task.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

That makes a lot of sense when put into perspective like that. Thanks for informing me! I have 0 experience with hunting, but like with most things in life it appears that there's more nuance to it than is readily visible to an outsider like myself.

[@samfire3067]

And being able to legaly kill animals close to human size even with its the size of a kid/dwarf

[@moosehunter2477]

I've played a lot of the Cabela's Dangerous Hunts Games and the animals in the 2011 & 2013 ones I am convinced were unnatural As for hippos, yeah they apparently kill more people every year then lions do and so do Cape Buffalo (which were misidentified as bison), which is why Cape Buffalo are sometimes called "Black Death" & "Widowmaker"

[@TheLegitWeebs]

The Black Death sounds familiar. I feel like I learned that a very long time ago on the Discovery channel as a kid. All I remember is to not mess with anything, especially not the peaceful looking herbivores. xD

[@Beriorn]

Expectation: Sitting in a bush for 20 minutes, taking a shot, getting a terrible score because of reasons you don't understand. Reality: The stampede scene from Lion King if Mufasa was packing heat, hyena jump scares, The Grey and The Revenant at the same time, the trees are speaking leopard, mountian lion horror sections, quickscoping baboons like it's Counter-Strike, an actual arena fight against the apes, being a one-man extinction event and a final boss fight against LEO BRANDO. Honestly I don't know whether this game is better or worse without the reveal of the intervation of magic or aliens. Having them would explain so much, but not having them makes it so much more fun. Sure people try to make games like this (closest I can think of in the last few years is Squirrel Stapler), but something this glorious cannot be made by design.

[@chill-lady-brook]

The two pathfinder reviews, Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous are both very good. I heard of the games because of mandalore’s reviews, played and loved both. Mandalore briefly mentioned that he talked about “Blue Gender” twice in the same year. Thats a reference to the Myth 2 video. Myth 1 and 2 are games made by Bungie (The company who made Halo.) Those videos are part of a series where Mandalore connects all the Bungie games together through shared lore.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Gonna have to check out the Bungie rabbit hole for sure. So many games I've only heard of in passing. Didn't realize any of them were connected.

[@kabob0077]

53:54 The sound effect implies he didn't TP away... _He stopped time and moved away._

[@mirakluaragnos2863]

I subscribed to you immidietly when you recognized the Canderous reference. My respect

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Thanks to the members who voted I play KOTOR. Such a good game.

[@kabob0077]

45:59 They may be remnants of the battalions of the Imperial Lupine Army and Imperial Lupine Navy that Luke and Jake's dad killed in the last Great Conservation War.

Plain and simple this video and this game is just insane.

[@alphashocker7458]

Yes! Yes! Thank you! Please react to more of his Halloween videos. They are the stuff of legends and are what made Mandy famous! You HAVE to react to Limbo of the Lost. And Mystery of the Druids. And also Anonymous Agony and Ring. These are all the parts of his Halloween Marathon of Madness.

[@CorporalCargopants1749]

I’m at the 18 and a half minute mark, but I’m gonna stop here for now because my current residence has a Wii and I MUST PLAY THIS GAME

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Valid

[@theanimeking3295]

First of all Jaguars are not native to Africa just South America though The lineage of the jaguar appears to have originated in Africa and spread to Eurasia 1.95-1.77 mya according Wikipedia. Second This game is just nuts it's not a hunting game that's for sure.

[@louissteyn6871]

Could have been confusing them with leopards, I'm also confused about the bison, when buffalo or wildebeest would be more accurate

[@mgunter]

Imagine this in VR.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

I'd be hallucinating big cats jumping out of every tree if I played this in VR.

This story is like witnessing a stroke happen live in the first, second, AND third person.

41:37 It'd be like locking Taylor Hebert into a locker sometime after she Triggered... Really just hammering on the Trauma Buttons.

[@snoopyfoster6]

When I first saw Mandalore's video on this, I was dying of laughter from start to finish just like you, and after watching you react to his other content, I wondered if you would ever react to this one..... DID.NOT.DISAPPOINT.🤣

[@kabob0077]

24:35 He's missing the scar and his hair isn't gray... Oh and he isn't opening a conversation with "yeah, what do you want?" but outside of those he is almost a carbon copy of the Mandalorian. He could even be a younger version of Canderous.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

I read that opening line in his voice 🤣 You hear that so many times it just gets ingrained into your memory

[@kabob0077]

@@TheLegitWeebs Indeed. If you heard that in Christopher Judge's voice then congrats, because that's another voice that'll get ingrained in your brain from hearing it so much. But yeah, Canderous sticks with ya.

This might be the only video I've seen of you laughing almost through the entire thing. Not that I'm any better. But I'm glad you're having fun! 🤣🤣🤣

[@kabob0077]

22:57 Only in terms of how many things were killed. Using Modern Warfare 2 as a blueprint means that the car level was Team Player but without the first on-foot segment at the start, this level would be Cliffhanger which is always a fun level.

[@LordRaine]

The strangest thing about all of this, is that I feel like there's actually a really cool game idea in here somewhere. Like there's a Resident Evil style virus that drives animals crazy, and we really are playing a conservationist, and we have to go into these tainted ecosystems and take samples while fighting off legions of creatures that have gone rabid. Only for the plot twist to be that it's a bioweapon or something, and was meant to be used on humans, but it didn't work right. I feel like if Cabela's had put maybe 25% more effort into thinking about the plot, this could have been a whole line of games that were really cool. Resident Evil Zookeeper.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

I agree. They were definitely cooking, but they stopped cooking too early.

[@PillarOfWamuu]

Yooo I love Mandalore reactions. Please check out his stuff. His videos on Deadspace are all great

[@Darkja]

If you want to watch more Mandalore, i really recommend checking both Limbo of the Lost and Mistery of the Druids, i think together with his Warhammer videos are his "must watch"

This game is like a fever dream 😂😂😂 Also, yeeeess. Pathfinder is soooo good! Hope you check it out and like it. Kingmaker is good but flawed, and WoTR is amazing.

[@Sure_Ruse_User]

13:34 I am totally with you on this trip, Xero! This stuff looks WILD, in more than one way! 15:40 Holy hells! 🤣🤣 18:00 1st person gun souls-like? I think I need that now... 30:23 Hippo with boss fight phases, IRL? Sounds about right. 35:48 This is some Tomb Raider shit! 😮🤯 39:36 Again with the conversationist? Conversationist of what? Certainly not of animals and ammo! Which honestly begs the question, is the protag conserving humanity from the animals? Did a Planet of the Apes style apocalypse happen or is happening since his dads' death? 45:52 Back then, Jacob went and emptied Alaska of all animals above rabbit size, it seems like. And Uganda is actually a part two! The devs only did not have enough money or time to make it an actual two game series, perhaps even had to scrap an intended third one. 52:00 I will seriously look up if any devs of this game have a reaction to Mandalore's video and see if any of his lore interpretations is actually on point. Thanks for binging this gem of a video to my attention.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

xD Glad you enjoyed it too!

[@Rokkettdog]

I'm one of those freaks that plays fps type games with a controller but always turn auto-aim/aim assist off. I know that mouse and keyboard is mechanically superior but It never felt right to me so I just ended up getting really good and finessed my way with shooters like a smash bros melee player lol

Black lions do exist in real life. Also I could stop laughing because of this game

[@kabob0077]

37:53 Come here expecting a boring, run of the mill Hunting game but what you get is a supernatural action thriller with HEAVY horror elements at times. God I LOVE this game, I want more games this ridiculous that wear that ridiculousness with pride.

I feel like this game would have been less insane if poachers were involved. No one cares about the indiscriminate massacre of poachers.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

lmao

[@Blacktoothoneil]

Hey man, I don’t want to be rude because I really enjoy your videos. But I think you have some major misconceptions about hunting. Hunting is actually good for the environment, in moderation, because otherwise (at least in North America) the deer population would grow out of control because of a lack of natural predators. Now of course this lack of natural predators is 100% humanities fault because we killed so many wolves for basically no reason, but it does mean that it is necessary to hunt and actually helpful to the ecosystem. Also conservationists hunt a lot, and I think you’ll actually find that most hunters are very pro environment. There’s always bad eggs obviously, and all the bad stuff you hear about poachers and overhunting does happen and is true, but I just wanted to point out that it’s a lot more complicated than just that.

[@TheLegitWeebs]

Don't worry about being rude. I fully admit I'm not knowledgeable about hunting at all, so I likely made a lot of misinformed comments during the video. Thanks for informing me!
