Tought that meant they played this in 2 player mode. The game is so much different. Single player is metal gear solid, 2 player is chaos af.

Arin could skew the results of a classical conditioning experiment... "Well we attached electrodes to a cookie so that touching it will deliver a painful shock. Most test subjects ignored the cookie, a few tried picking it up, but didn't touch it again after getting shocked. The subject named Arin shocked himself 52 times before we had to shut the experiment down due to safety concerns..."

[@phantomspaceman]

"This is an experiment in attention blindness. How many apples did you count. Well you missed the gorilla walking through the scene." Arin - "What gorilla. Show it again. Nope still nothing. Is the gorilla in the video? I'll check the car. No gorillas in the margins. Look I counted all the apples let me go. There isn't a stupid gorilla someone open up a guide for this." -experiment terminated-

Arin: “Is this one of those ink blot tests where you say what it looks like to you? If so, it looks like a duck.” And the picture is clearly of a duck; it’s not even an ink blot test, just a duck.

[@FattyChuna]

13:25 Arin getting not one, but TWO notifications in quick succession about the new item he just unlocked and button mashing through them to get back to being a little goblin man faster and only realizing when Dan mentions it. And he STILL forgets to use it when he's being chased shortly after. Never change Arin. Never change.

[@crowmadgaming6383]

This probably won't reach the eyes that I'd like it to: Arin had said how he admires the idea of playing games as a "little goblin". Well about two years ago I'd gotten a team together to build an indie game called "GWAG" Where you play as a weak goblin who magically obtained a modern day firearm. Long story short, the project fell through, BUT I'm currently writing the story as a book to build interest. Point is: I'd wanted to reach out to Arin to voice the goblin lol

Arin taking about the guard dog: “a Highwayman. Thats what they call that.” Me: “Nope. That’s definitely not true.” 😂 A highwayman was a robber who stole from travellers. Like… the exact opposite of a guard.

[@LostInPhilly89]

I mean, we all know that Arin's an idiot at this point. Are we surprised?

He's not wrong. Not much of a difference between a highwayman and a guard in Medieval times. And arguably the police and gangs in modern times.

[@DaClems]

The cities Arin was describing were Mykonos and Santorini of Greece.

The hee hee hoo hoo factor is off the charts for this game

[@Lordmunkey]

The fish would almost certainly be a Branzino very popular Mediterranean sea bass with traditional Greek and Italian variants of serving it. Delicious stuff if you ever get the chance.

Also it looked nothing like a salmon. Arin's smugness trumps Dan's humbleness though.

[@BaconNationChannel]

Santorini, Greece is what Arin was really looking for.

[@DarkshireWarlock]

Haven't even started the episode yet, but I'm so glad they're playing Pizza Possum! I've had so many hours of fun in this game. It really feels like those old school games where you do minimal strategizing to obtain a high score. None of "if I make this decision in THIS quest then THIS happens" thought process. Just some good ole' "I like (item) the best so I'm gonna tear through this game the way I really wanna play it". btw, Smoke Bombs are the OP catch. Just stack 'em and the castle is all yours at that point.

[@DarkshireWarlock]

Also, it's only something like $6 on the Switch. Some tasty, low-cost enjoyment right there.

[@amelianyquist1215]

I'm definitely buying this game. It's got Untitled Goose Game vibes and it's just so CUTE

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

Because Dan mentioned Short Circuit and I’m always thrilled whenever he makes a reference to the decade we respectively grew up in: The music video for “Who’s Johnny?” by El DeBarge depicted a courtroom scenario that doesn’t have much to do with the plot. Ally Sheedy, as Stephanie Speck, is on trial and when asked the title song’s question, she merely shrugs and implies she doesn’t know. Johnny Five makes an appearance in the video and, naturally, scenes from Short Circuit are featured as well.

[@heyokasd]

I low-key loved the song as a kid in the 80s, so I'm imagining NSP covering it 😂

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

@@heyokasd Sweet! Another 80s Child! 👋😁 Dan and Brian absolutely nail every cover they record, so who knows? Maybe they will. Dan’s rendition of The Last Unicorn makes me sob, because it was my Mom’s favorite novel/ movie of all time!
