FIGHTING IN THE FLOATING CITY! - RANDOMIZED ELDEN RING COOP

[@Goon_Rast02]

Tom and Generic guy have the kind of friendship that some bros can only dream about. Lucky.

[@PierceArner]

Hooray for more *Elden Ring* with Tom and -The Loathsome Dung Eater- Ben!!

[@skylark1463]

Xanatos (Riker voice guy) knew about the "Until the castle rises above the clouds" prophecy/rule , which is why he intentionally had that castle with those Gargoyles placed on a skyscraper. He knew about the castle because one of the Gargoyles, Demona (voiced by Counselor Troy), escaped the curse and was just trying to find a way to fulfill the prophecy for 1000 years until she found a thirsty enough rich guy. Also I clearly was a big fan of the original but I couldn't care less about the remake.

[@Kasaaz]

I didn't know there even was a remake... But I do know what a Xanatos Gambit is.

[@Shockwave00010]

I just find it amusing at the end when tom is trying to "do something" to that poor stone stick/pillar thing when they are chating away.

[@CuriousMoth]

He was just trying to make himself comfy.

[@DMystic101]

With regard to Gargoyles, said eccentric billionaire(who was voiced by Ryker) had known about the legend and intentionally moved the castle on top of his building to see it the story was true.

[@LoreRevolution]

Fun fact, the evil female gargoyle (Desdemona) was voiced by Diana Troy, and Puck was voiced by Data. One or two of the other side characters were voiced by Voyager people (like Captain Janeway) too!

[@ItsRinaldo]

@@LoreRevolution Worf was a minotaur man I think.

[@shadowfate05]

5:30 But that's the fun thing about randomizers! The animation was made for a flat arena. By fighting on a hill, the animation clips into the ground so you can't see it under you

[@Blitzkrieger17]

no one remembers Gargoyles?! meanwhile, here i am, scouring every target, walmart, fye, and BAM for the neca figures, FOR MONTHS... i think the last one i need is Lexington, which i think had production issues due to his unusual wings... its actually a great show if you go back to it! and the intro music is badass!

[@sonofhades57]

I cannot understate how good Gargoyles is, how well it's held up, and how enduring its fandom is. It was a show that had a lot of love and effort put into it.

[@Orillion123456]

@Ben: The reason you burn the entire world tree down is because the door that leads inside it (where you need to go to repair the elden ring) is blocked by ... some branches. Slight overkill.

[@valteine]

To be fair I don think we were expressly told that we're goin to the mountaintop so that our maiden can immolate erself to burn down the tree.

[@whiskeyhound]

@@valteineIt gets mentioned once or twice, but you've gotta talk to her or the madness npc to hear about it. Still not sure why the player has to go to farum azula for the tree to actually burn away the branches.

[@EdinMike]

“Why are we burning the tree ?” “Reasons…” 😂

[@smeatar]

I don’t remember much about Gargoyles but I do remember that I enjoyed it as a kid and I thought it had characters and plot that were much more compelling than other shows, so that could mean that it is good and worth another look or that could just mean that it wasn’t quite as dumb as Street Sharks and Biker Mice From Mars

[@sonofhades57]

I watched it recently and did a bit of looking into the show's production and I can confirm that it's a show that's very smart and has held up very well. That's what happens when you let a bunch of Shakespearean scholars loose on a show, loosen the restrictions on potentially objectionable content, and throw in a bunch of TNG alums to voice it all to perfection.

[@JesusMcgeeBAMF]

Only bad thing about this series is that they're quickly making their way to the final boss so theres probably not many episodes left

[@InterrogatingTheCat]

"I look a bit like a foreskin" Bruh I choked on my drink

[@taophat]

American reporting in, Gargoyles is hands-down one of my top 5 90's cartoons. Can't go wrong with Keith David and Jonathan Frakes as your main protagonist/antagonist. I also learned most of what I know about Shakespeare lore from Gargoyles.

[@frankiecedeno3724]

Daddy chill as a single phrase will always make me laugh and then I hear the old guy saying “what in the hell was that”

[@stalhein62]

Something having hands as a meaning to it being strong can be explained in the following: I'm going to go clear Caria Manor Damn, Caria Manor got hands

[@Kasaaz]

Watching the Randomizer so far, the thing I have been most impressed with is how interactive the environment is for bosses and monsters, even in places they aren't supposed to be. Makes you wonder if they had bigger ambitions.

[@SkellyBobRoss]

I feel like ballboy is just Boldorbs way of saying they miss you.

[@deltaangelfire]

Gargoyles would've been like my number 2 after Darkwing Duck. It was great! a shame it never got a season 3 *wink*

[@BaldGuyDennis]

I don't know how often these videos get recorded, but there is another boss you need to do here. And I am not sure what co-op mod you use, but when you die you seem to get a little debuff the reduces: max health, attack, def and so on. to get rid of just sit down at a bonfire after you die. Lastly the targeting in the game is not the most advanced its really easy to get agro and then just move back to give people some space to heal before jumping in again. Thanks for the videos Tom they are a lotta fun.

[@Thetruepianoman]

Idk wtf gargoyles is but youve really summoned the nerds with this one 😂

[@cskiller86]

So, the trick to beating Elden Ring is to fight Margit at every step of the way? Huh, who would've thunk it?

[@zonedereve]

STOMP! I forgot about that! Like the grunge version of blue man group! Everyone in marching band and concert band was obsessed with STOMP!

[@Erlisch1337]

aaah Ancestor Spirit....there being so many animals around makes so much sense now!

[@anthonyballard8468]

"If it's a bird we're $#@&Ed!"

[@weezact7]

Oof, Tom and Ben have clearly lost touch with the internet culture if they don't know that Gargoyles has a rabid cult following

[@fosterbennington6405]

The show with the team of mummies was way cooler than gargoyles

[@sonofhades57]

Mummies Alive was genuinely good, but it was no Gargoyles.

[@zomble_z]

Gargoyles had both, Jonathan Frakes (Riker) and Mirina Sirtis (Troy)!

[@frankiecedeno3724]

Having hands is definitely many years old. I don’t remember when I first heard of it but it was most likely in middle school in regards to kids fighting and that was 12 years ago.

[@surothedeath]

tom: "ther is no enemys here" also tom: an enemy lets run"

[@Yog-slagunar]

huh.... that music fighting fire Margit was VERY suicide mission from ME2

[@sonofhades57]

That was the suicide mission theme. The editor likes to throw in video game music for the boss battles. Last episode there was some music from Hollow Knight!

[@Yog-slagunar]

@@sonofhades57 good then im not a loon. It's a dope piece of music!

[@apennington8165]

I care about Gargoyles, Tom.. 😟

[@Dissplacer]

They are getting Johnathan Franks back into the remake. Also, Its supposed to be LIVE Action... hmmm

[@Blitzkrieger17]

pretty sure they made Xanatos to kinda look like him... it'd be great to see him reprise that role!

[@SinistralWolf]

Almost all of the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation showed up to voice a character on Gargoyles at some point actually!

[@Kasaaz]

I wonder of Stagger Attack Damage is set as a percentage of the ORIGINAL Base HP. So when it scales them up for later game, it does such a small amount.

[@Jhonka8807]

The thing about the Gargoyles tv show is there were several Star Trek Next Gen actors in the cast

[@fishpop]

There were 6 Gargoyles. Goliath the main one, a dog, imp fella, fat one, old one and the woman. EDIT Seven, missed the pterodactyl looking guy.

[@Timmeh7o7]

Tom and Ben beat up woodland creatures Episode 12

[@josiah6328]

*Dejection Intensifies*

[@-Lancelotto-]

Just a quick aside …… I very much care about gargoyles 😅😅

[@deadlydestroya]

For some reason this didnt appear in my feed even tho im subed. Glad i found it tho

[@matthewdelany8105]

In case they are wondering they were transported to farum uzula to obtain destined death so they can kill the tree and god I think I kind of forgot the lore but I think that's close

[@Timmeh7o7]

To whomever cares, the "X got hands" meme first appeared on November 2020.

[@steelgunsuit]

Gargoyles would be 3rd or 4th down the list, easy.

[@ChadDewing]

While I do hate how Hollywood is just remaking everything instead of making original stories, I absolutley loved the show Gargoyles as a kid.

[@Mindflood18]

Ya dodge through attacks, not out of them

[@taylorbrecht8049]

Agree with Ben, that AOE was bullshit

[@ItsRinaldo]

Gargoyles fucking owned but leave it in the past don't ruin it.

[@nice2mice]

Nice

[@kezmsfilms1300]

Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1452 Ben out here starting his with with Godfrey in the Invisible boat Mobile XD Damn, that Hawk Soldier is good, and goofy XD I really like the Sky City, real cool, and, void of monsters, just full of animals XD Yey :D good the Deer is back XD ha ha

[@thehelpmeyo]

Jesus Christ they have like half the HP they should have at this point

[@InterrogatingTheCat]

The randomiser has also kinda given them like half the runes they should have had at this point to be fair

[@frankiecedeno3724]

Remember Hollywood isn’t desperate they’re conservative. If Hollywood is a restaurant and movies are food then reboots and sequels are that meal you get every time because you know you like it already. New and unique scripts are the weekly special and it might be great, but not everyone is going to go for it now imagine those meals cost hundreds of millions of dollars to make and it makes sense why Hollywood is always serving burgers and fries.

[@someperson8641]

❤

[@PitchBlackLaser]

Sorry Ben but you were in that AOE… Usually you fight an enemy like this in a flat arena so you can perfectly see how big the area of effect is… But since you are fighting them in snowy hilly mountains you have a hard time of judging how big the area actually is😅

[@liallen9380]

Yeah, I was thinking during that fight that the drastic difference in terrain would play holy hell with the hitboxes and visual clarity on those attacks.

[@jonasquinn7977]

I love Tom and Ben but so,times they are so out of touch. “Who the fuck cares about Gargoyles?” Lots of people. Lots. Of. People.

[@KavsLockedOut]

dont let your integration into nerd subculture distort your view of reality dawg nobody gives a fuck about gargoyles

[@Lunch_Meat]

Meh. I prefered my comedy cartoons as a kid, so gargoyles was pretty low on my list of cartoons. The tick, earthworm jim, life with louie, etc.
