Let's Drown Out Resident Evil 4 Until We're Sick Of It - Episode 10

[@daasbuffy]

So we will never know how "Ho Master" grows as a person. :(

[@JBBost]

Pretty sure you answered your own question.

[@daasbuffy]

Yes but his questions seem to indicate a very subtle move into self-awareness, which make his questions much more hilarious.

[@justinkroboth360]

Well, this is the best comment. Congrats. :D

[@peacewalker3931]

Ho Master was their version of Richard Anderson (from Pilkington)

[@Straddock]

I would have thought Paul "The Party Animal" Parker would have been a better fit.

[@fangsup726]

[@kidkangaroo5213]

The rewatches will never end. NEVER

[@ianciti]

i cant move on, i need more drown outs

[@sadowl5307]

2021 still watching lol. Honestly can't find any other let's play that's better than this

[@somedude3413]

well since drown out has felt like a farewell tour ever since yahtzee said he was leaving maybe you could pull a Mötley Crue and end it where it all began with a dizzy game

[@ThatxGuyxUxKnow]

This needs more upvotes

[@jammothyjimmothy6999]

yes yes yes we need this

[@471444a]

I thought it was Quake 2?

[@somedude3413]

+Joseph Senior quake 2 was when they started calling it drown out but the first game that yahtzee and gabe played together was fantasy world dizzy

[@ivanolivas9897]

Its funny. I found this channel 4 years ago when I was a freshman in highschool and this show is ending a month before I go to college. Yahtzee and Gabe, Thank you for being a part of my life.

[@JammyD2579]

I'm positive you answered the "biggest animal you could kill" question before. Yahtzee said it would be a single attack dog, because you splay their front legs, and it crushes their chest. He then joked that it would _only_ be a single attack dog and "that's probably why attack dogs come in packs".

[@natsume-hime2473]

I know they've made comments about hunting bare handed, but they've never actually answered this particular question iirc.

[@JammyD2579]

I'm positive Gabe gave the answer of elephant seal last time as well. Yahtz mentioned the "splay their legs to collapse their chest" tactic for dogs, and also the idea of shoving his arm down their throat. I'm positive it was the exact same question - "biggest animal you could kill bare-handed".

[@bigrigjoe5130]

I think the first question wasn't "largest" it was like "most dangerous"

[@lbsc1201]

Four years late, but for anyone wondering the question is in XCOM Part 3.

[@xxPYROxxJONESxx]

rewatching all the old drownouts. and you get to here and realise there is only four hours left.

[@RegretfulDeadMan]

Yahtzee and Gabe are my favorite homosexuals on the internet. Only a few more weeks, let me have this one.

[@taylorsharp2196]

ah, there it is

[@natsume-hime2473]

It wouldn't be a drown out without one of these.

[@powervidsful]

you only get one more and thats for the last ldo so yeah

[@natsume-hime2473]

Two-four actually, Yahtzee said "a few weeks" not "week after next".

[@NetMoverSitan]

Yahtzee is bi at most.

[@TheNewRegulars]

I propose the Drown Out series ends with a bang; a 5 hour stream with Yathzee and Gabe facecams, suffering through whatever games the reddit votes for them.

[@darcgibson5099]

Tweet Gabriel? Does he even use Twatter?

[@kemonoautumnfall6331]

+Darc Gibson yes, he has a twitter account.

[@kemonoautumnfall6331]

+Darc Gibson @gabrielenguard

[@silentassault9613]

Or we get Yahtzee to fight a cow

[@ambrosefogarty6423]

I doubt that'd be a 5 hour event.

[@noahking3723]

Been a follower of this series since the first drown out (Quake 2, way back at the end of 2013). Boy how the time flies, gonna miss this show a lot.

[@StuntmanMikeL]

I wonder if you guys still read those comments sometimes... Well, anyway, in case you do, I'm feeling nostalgic so I'm just gonna leave this here. I wanted to let you guys know that even though I "moved on" about two years before you stopped making those videos, I've recently decided to revisit the entire series and finally catch up on the vids that I've been missing out on for so long. And this episode in particular kinda brings a tear to my eye because I can still remember finding that very first podcast file that Yahtzee posted on his blog about 10 years ago, and how I followed your exploits for years after that. I still have those mp3s of the first two recordings that you made together. For a while, you became a part of my weekend routine, and I always watched a new episode before bed on Sunday evening. It's a bummer but all good things have to end at some point, I guess. I just wanted to let you know how much I apprecieate all those years of entertainment that you guys provided me with and that your exploits brought a much needed comfort when I was going through some really rough patches in my life. Wish you all the best.

[@hdips7081]

Preach! I bet gabe is an awesome teacher now.

[@Ironman1o1]

Gabe really has the emotional range of a Borg, doesn't he?

[@alastairward2774]

Yahtzee will suffer the most from any split I think.

[@overwatch1774]

He has the emotional range of at least two Borgs. Maybe three.

[@reesim3718]

"Devastated"? Nah. They're gonna miss each other, for sure. And they'll never admit it. Too much pride in these two.

[@peacewalker3931]

hey... you mess with gabe... you mess with *all* of us. sincerely, -the borg

[@howell2010]

"Playing Dead Rising on a CRT TV" I remember exactly what Gabe is talking about and I completely agree. First time resolution mattered at all.

[@OptimusGamer1981]

I'd love to see you Drown Out a few more adventure games before you're done. I have gone back and rewatched your Police Quest, Space Quest, even Dreamweb, Manhunter, and Normality more times than is healthy. So many others I'd love to see your opinions on.

[@alastairward2774]

I got sick of this Resident Evil down out ages so, I'd be happy to see it end and have a few one offs instead.

[@OptimusGamer1981]

I remember Gabe mentioning doing I have no mouth and I must scream at some point, I'd be happy to see that and maybe another one if they can find the time over the next few weeks of recording. Silent Hill 2 would be a brilliant capper since it's not even that long a game and Yahtzee never shuts up about how great it is.

[@ViktorKruger99]

+OptimusGamer1981 Yathzee said that he is going to leave at the end of the month, so that probably means only one more episode and there is not enough time to prepare anything like that.

[@kellenliame2674]

Ah.... Dreamweb. Where every puzzle can be boiled down to "shoot the thing causing an issue.

[@dstarr3]

Their Normality playthrough is serious one of the best LPs on all of KZbin.

[@RisingJake]

On a side note, I find Regenerators to be some of the most terrifying enemies in video games.

[@RegretfulDeadMan]

"You have to something else with your time" ... Riiiiight, something else

[@Hysteria98]

45:40 - "They levelled up from all the Rape", is one of the absolute best fucking lines from this whole series and I somehow forgot it. Pissing myself laughing once again

[@firstpersonforge]

Aww, my favourite LP channel :(

[@OptimusGamer1981]

It's always a highlight of my week, no one does it better than these two hetero lifemates

[@MaskedKittyYT]

same. I'm gonna miss them.

[@Vercsase]

There's nothing quite like a Drown Out and a nice breakfast for a lazy Sunday morning. ...guess it's back to church soon.

[@Nightmare78hAlo]

There's so few actual good LP channels imo, with you guys gone I'll have fuck all to watch after work and studies. Well i hope at least Yathzee will start doing streaming then when he gets to the US, maybe full on LPs like a Silent Hill 2 LP Stream.

[@LounySchwarzbier]

I find Gabe and Aaron's channel keepetclassy to be funnier than LDO. Check that channel out if you need more funny banter during LPs.

[@TheWastelandHunter]

While it may not be the exact same. Two Bests Friends Play are two personalities I find rather funny. They have a cast of four, but Pat and Matt fit the best in my opinion.

[@MrIronhat]

Yeah, two best friends play is pretty close to let's drown out. The main difference being that Gabe and Yahtzee rag on the game and each other while maintaining a stiffed upper lips. Two best friends are much more animated in their response.

[@bobbluered8984]

Don't bet on it.

[@angeliqueroux1302]

It breaks my fragile french heart that this is coming to an end. You guys have been bringing smiles to so many for so long.

[@zomb1elvis]

gabe vs elephant seal. with a voice-over by richard attenborough. this needs to be a kickstarter!

[@Silenttalker22]

The appeal, I think, is a mix of fandom and the fact that Yahtzee and Gabe are both very well informed and well thought on many subjects. And they're also very moderate on most things. So it turns into sensible, yet still entertaining banter on a wide variety of subjects.

[@justspareparts9194]

-sigh- it's been fun gents. Thanks for keeping me and the boys in the barracks full of laughs and at times starting arguments and intellectual conversations

[@jalisangariyan6621]

I legit can't get to sleep without listening to Drown out haha

[@snakething87]

I'm super bummed now. For a long time Lets Drown Out has been a part of my week. Every Sunday I'd wait for the video to come up and then off to lunch I'd go. Having a burger and a beer while listening to you guys talk has been a high point of my weeks and I'm sorry to see it come to an end.

[@Shotgun_Gospel]

Yahtzee, I don't think you realize that a cow is basically a female bull. It would destroy you with minimal effort.

[@ethanlee4405]

0TripleHelix0 burgers

[@darcgibson5099]

Whaaat nooo why don't you just continue you it over skype, it would be so e-z. Gabe, create your own channel? I'm bad at break ups ;'^(

[@nicolajjensen8328]

Probably because of the time zones

[@shanethepain13]

Gabe does have another channel he does games on

"They levelled up from all the rape" Yahtzee Croshaw

[@Carlos-ln8fd]

For years I loved waking up every sunday knowing I could watch these videos. No other let's play series comes even close.

[@maroonstarsface]

watching this back has just made me realise the molded in resi 7 are shaped, move and attack identically to the regenerators!

[@dapa4]

I was just about to go watch an old drown out, then this showed up! Perfect timing, thanks for thinking of me Yahtz lol

[@HannesRadke]

End of August 2016: Yahtzee Croshaw steps on the walkway to a plane, hesitating. Just one more look over his shoulder. Nothing. He is not there. "Mr. Croshaw, the plane is about to leave." The Stewardess is getting impatient. With a sad sigh, Yahtzee lifts foot. "YAHTZEEEE!" Could this be? Another look back. There he stands, panting. He must've ran all the way here. "YAHTZEEEEEE!" The man is holding up a hastily written sign. In four big letters. Stay, it says. Continue the Fan-Fiction here or on the subreddit ;)

[@blankfrankie3747]

+Hannes Radke Sounds about right. Great chemistry aside, I don't get the impression that these two actually like each other all that much.

[@natsume-hime2473]

I would answer the sign has "CUNT" written on it. Gabe runs as close as security will let him, panting he tries to get out some words... Yahtzee just shakes his head and shouts "I'm gonna miss you and your knob!" Gabe lets out a breathless laugh. "I'll miss you too, you massive tosser!" They both give rare genuine smiles, wave one final good bye, then Yahtzee climbs aboard the plane. Taking his seat Yahtzee pulls a tattered black book, that he's too proud to call his diary, from his carry-on, then a pen. He flips the book open to the next blank page and at the top, then he writes with a bitter-sweet mix of emotions: "Today was the first time I ever left a friendship on good terms."

[@Varian-Killbot]

And then the writer of the last line was shot for being a moron.

[@LightningNC]

I'd like to introduce you guys to this thing called "Skype." Maybe you've even heard of it before. Please don't say that "it just wouldn't be the same."

[@Doktor_Jones]

Australia timezones and American timezones.

[@fishotic4237]

Discord's pretty good, too.

[@LightningNC]

Discord might even be a better option, come to think of it. But the point is just that this is a solvable problem. I want to believe.

[@ignismare]

AND Australian Internet connections.

[@flightlesschicken7769]

That's the main reason. Internet. Look up rural Australian Internet, you will find it quite impossible for them to do that. That is where Gabe will be moving to.

[@ShinobuSakurazaka]

Gabe is literally the only person I know that let's the attache case going to hell because it ends up biting you in the arse in the late game (like now) where the attache case is quite large and you can't find shit! I wish Yahtzee had caved in tidied up the case so it would of been in some kind of order before Gabe fucked it up in this final episode! Also, it sucks that they never finished this like they finished Half-Life although I know Half-life is a fair bit shorter than Resident Evil 4.

[@jammything3573]

Best part for me was at 26:25 When Yahtzee says "Don't throw good money after bad instead of money its..." and then Gabe interrupts! Such a cheep laugh but I can't help it.

[@katebreck7624]

Its 2023 and im still listening to gabe waffle on. The familiarity and droning voices help me fall asleep every night still

[@hermaeus_jackson]

Gabriel an Elephant Seal wouldn't even need to fight you, they're so heavy they could just roll onto you and that would be it. They kill their babies by accident regularly.

[@Warweazel]

Obligatory yelling at Gabriel about mechanical keyboards. There are two major keyboard types, mechanical and membrane. Mechanical keyboards have one "clicky" press. A membrane keyboard on the other hand, has two presses, (you know how it feels sort of floaty until you press it down all the way?) but it's much quieter. Then there's a third type, a sort of hybrid called a mechanical membrane keyboard, which combines the mechanisms of the two for the "smooth click" of the mechanical, and the silence of the membrane.

[@untouchedbyu1]

Obligatory tl'dr, general apathy

[@aitch9053]

There's quiet mechanical keyboards too, it all has to do with the key switches used. Cherry MX brand uses color coding for the mechanisms. Sounds like Gabe's friend had Blues which are full on loud click with resistance, but there's Reds and Browns that are no louder than a membrane. Also little O Rings you can pop in underneath the keycaps to deaden the sound. No sense in giving mechanical keyboards a bad rap on noise when it's not entirely deserved. Especially considering how much better they operate, more accurate for touch typing, much more durable and less likely to short out if something gets spilled, easier to clean, etc.

[@loganator01]

"You would have thought this wouldn't have gone unnoticed" *honk* Made me laugh lol

[@InnerDness]

"What do you think has been the appeal of let's drown out?" "Um..." *pregnant silence*

[@LiquidShamanMan]

Its a shame this series won't be a thing in a month's time. What is he doing in America anyway? Will he still do ZP?

[@bigrigjoe5130]

I'm really gonna miss Let's Drown Out. This was my favorite Let's Play Channel ;_;

[@HemiBull]

I will definitely miss you two doing Drown Out series. All that banter, thoughts, fantasies. Been listening since the start. It's nice to know that there is a real person behind all his work (Yahtzee). And Gabe.. umm.. have fun doing the teacher thing! Yeah, that works. All the little tips dropped about work, writing, getting shit done without any sprinkling or romanticism. Thanks. :}

[@cr0w-qz277]

darkness ahead, therefore sadness

[@Canadamus_Prime]

So it's official. Yahtzee is leaving us.

[@chirsloalo3988]

Please keep doing drown out, it helped me through so much in these past few years, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have you two to watch and help brighten my day. I seriously am willing to pay for your skype credit or better services so that you guys can do this over the internet

[@spacecowboy6667]

NOOOOOOO!! I ritually watch these weekly and look forward to it! It's one of the thing I look forward to at the weekend! Like you said for YEARS!! Don't gooooooo :O

[@ammarkov]

Playing RE4 on the Quest 2 and watching the lets drown out after each bit, thx Yahtzee and Gabe..

[@samm8729]

i've been watching you idiots since the hugo whodunnit episode, which happened to be the first week of high school. now here I am about to move out myself. thanks for making me grow up

[@Alabaster-White]

Man I really wanted to see Gabriel do his Killer 7 video analysis series. All the references in this episodes just reminded me of him saying that.

[@Drjebus]

Yahtzee was referring to the Simpsons episode where Reverend Lovejoy's pristine, perfect church daughter is actually a bad.

[@GoblinTinkerer]

I will miss drown outs. And I will totally rewatch old episodes for a while each Sunday after it is gone.

[@a.mostert800]

I've been listening to these two since the days of Show and Tell. It's going to be quite the saga ending for me at least.

[@lammy227]

You guys will be sorely missed-I think what worked best between the two of you is the chemistry.

[@athenatheta8045]

I still can't believe they never finished this. Worst crime of the 21st century.

[@MegaFat1]

RIP Down Outs. I will make a montage in your honour. I will miss all of the waffling and silly questions.

[@r2dezki]

I'm gonna be sad when you'll stop this series.

[@MaskedKittyYT]

me too dude, I at least wish they could finish this game before they end everything for this. and maybe do one other game for like an episode, I would enjoy jade empire myself but I'm not really picky when it comes down to it, I just really enjoy their content, it was always easy to sit down for super long amounts of time and enjoy hours worth of content.

[@Onbu_]

It's sad to see Let's Drown Out end,but look at the bright side: maybe now Yahtzee can be guest on Co-Optional podcat!

[@jimpapas3705]

That aged well

[@LaughingThesaurus]

I actually tend to get pretty demoralized most of the time when I'm bad at something, but the one thing that really clicked was piano. I mean, I improved really quickly compared to the other classmates, but maybe that was just because I practiced. The funny thing is, practicing led me to make mistakes, which usually led me to laugh, or kind of take a mental note of something that was wrong but still sounded neat. I think a component of discovering your talent is finding something you can enjoy fucking up. Find something that inspires some sort of creativity. You'll find things that do and don't work, and it should be fun no matter what.

[@funnyvalentinedidnothingwrong]

My favourite part of dealing with the Regenerators is when you play through with the Chicago Typewriter and no longer need the scope, because of the endless stream of bullets you can just pour into it until it dies.

[@Kieraganion]

Fucking miss these.

[@ShatterPalm]

The status of their briefcase is giving me a hernia.

[@doubledouble4g379]

For a duo, it's the chemistry - you guys have really good banter and it's fun to listen to. Oh, and not that this helps now, but: PROTIP: To kill the Regenerator, aim at one of it's knees with the shotgun and wait for it to get close to you. When it starts it's attack animation, fire! Take ONE step forward so you're parallel with it's thighs. Turn and look down at it, then just start slashing with the knife. It takes a LONG time, but you can kill them this way without using tons of ammo or getting hit :) Does NOT work on the spiky ones, but by then you have the scope ;)

[@kazuya9288]

Does Yahtzee not realise this is only decent content he makes

[@Bigngreen]

Go back into your cave you troglodyte! Everything Yahtzee makes is great.

[@jackryan5880]

Do you realize you can watch someone else u like, like bombing mass murder pranks.

[@Bigngreen]

Cherry mx blue switches are loud and clicky, but there are mechanical switches that have the good Feely touchy without the clickity clack of the Blues. Red and brown switches are probably the most common.

I'm still listening and though I like the new content on escapist, recently downgraded the KZbin premium (Cost cutting) and it's unbearable sometimes. He's good with jack, ok with Marty but he underestimated his rapport with Gabe. The absence of superchats is also cool. Bring back homaster!!!!.

[@ShroudedWolf51]

That's a fair point. I've been sick of Bejeweled-style mechanics for ages, yet HuniePop came along and made the entire thing interesting all over again. Especially, the consumable items made it quite interesting, where you have to plan ahead and get certain matches, but once you've set that up, you can transform entire parts of the playing field or make huge plays.

[@bacaestrife3615]

A mechanical keyboard along with having the good tactile press, is just accurate. Comes in handy for gaming because you don't have weird delays or miss presses.

[@GranTruismo4head]

I'd honestly love to see Yahtzee still continue Let's Drown out with his girlfriend and if he came back to Australia do it with Gabriel again

[@shadowthespikythingy]

If I remember right the post-op transgender suicide rate is still an improvement on the denied-an-op transgender suicide rate. Like how a person who's been treated for AIDS is more likely to die of AIDS than a randomly selected person because most people don't have AIDS.

[@cathallynch1]

55:00 the Mass Effect discourse is extra interesting as I'm playing through it for the first time. It does feel like a very safe and mainstream sci fi adventure to the degree that it's disheartening to think what Bioware might have been capable of in generations since.

[@groovemedium]

I'm gonna miss this series. I've watched or sometimes fallen asleep to every one.

[@KyleDangerAdams]

The end of Drown Outs!? How am I going to fall asleep now?!

[@RS250Squid]

I imagine a KZbin Downloader + Itunes = 24 hour playlist of Yahtzee and Gabe bickering XD.

[@aaaaaaaaaaagh11]

No more lets plays?! Nooooo I am very sad. Best of luck to you both though! Thanks for the many years of entertainment.

[@RichtersShadow]

Monkey Island could be a good finale. The adventure game ones are always entertaining, MI is a good game AND it's short enough to do in one go.

Moore's law, basically, if I buy a flash drive, and I buy an identical looking one ~18 months later, it should theoretically hold twice as much and be half the cost.

[@predcon1]

I'll never forget Flashback and Yahtzee's whistling apartment.

[@kultiplexify]

For me personally, I've found moments where either of them or both of them pissed me off for one reason or another. Thought that they were complete moronic fucking cunts. BUT I also remember drown outs that I absolutely loved like Dink Smallwood, FTL, Young Merlin, Smash TV and the ego reviews. I have to give kudos for yahtzee's nonconformity to the whole nu-letsplayer style bullshit that so many people do these days without absolutely zero character. We had our good times and we had our bad times, but it'll be over soon. C'est la vie.

[@Rehteal]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Drown Outs were my favorite sunday entertainment!
