Baba Is You - Jon Is Confused

[@ajmac2163]

Ive never seen anyone so good at immediately over complicating things

[@nicknevco215]

there was a speedrun competition some where on the internet

[@Artificial-Insanity]

Yeah, the first non numbered level is very easy, just Rock=You, move the rock to where you can push it, Rock=Push, push the rock pas the crabs, make Flag=Win, make Rock=You, done. His solution was infinitely more complicated.

[@sharkofjoy]

Right ...his solution is more complicated....but he wasn't doing a speed run, he was appropriately using the intro screen which serves as an introduction to the entire game, concisely giving you pieces to play with so the pattern of the game is laid out. I did literally the exact same thing, and spent about 5 minutes on just this screen seeing what was and wasn't legal. It's a shining example of good game design, and made me immediately love the game and feel right at home ❤️

[@asbestosfish_]

_”this is going to be a problem, isn’t it?”_ -Jon describes the entire game 95 seconds into playing it

[@pabond008]

"It still needs to be rock is push because otherwise rock doesn't push, because rock that is pushed will push, and then... wait... and then..." *jon's brain explodes*

[@Einargizz]

Now you're thinking with Baba.

[@7uring]

Baba is You Rock is Portal Crab is GladOS GladOs is Defeat

[@DisKorruptd]

Now you're Baba. with thinking

[@Oxxyjoe]

Thinking with baba is you

[@jinkeloid]

Jon is Suffering Jon is Baba Baba is Series Logic is Sink More, please more Jon, let's keep this going.

[@KurosakiYukigo]

Did Jon say *series?!* And Jon, you're not actually that bad at this game. You joke about being dumb but you're quite methodical and at least in the earlier levels you figured out the trick rather quickly.

[@salestax1]

He did good, but the later levels are silly levels of difficult. He'd either have to stop or look up how to do them. (Not to mention there are more than 200 levels) Honestly (having watched a few peeps start a series and have it peeter off and having played it and getting to 180 myself) I think it's a terrible game to make a series of.

[@themasteronhigh1665]

@@salestax1 Mainly because its FLIPPING EVIL

[@madmanwithaplan1826]

this is definitely a game where methodical will only get you so far you have to have a really creative and flexible mind to get through the later levels. Or be stark raving MAD!!! one of the two

[@rad666a]

A "BaBa is You" Live stream must happen...if only for the visceral enjoyment of listening to Jon's brain imploding live.

[@juliajs1752]

Too much backseat gaming. Even I yelled at him, and this is not live!

[@bylertoe1]

And then Claire laughing at him not getting it because either she got it or the comments gave it away

[@ethanketter9054]

"Jon is confused" the title of every video.

[@cryonicstupidity4911]

Hes like a pokemon but with a permanent confusion effect and a low chance to hit.

[@CloakedC]

Good job on the side room Jon! With the flag and crab! I'm very proud of you!

[@BRUXXUS]

"My plan IS" as you move the word "is" was one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. For some reason.🤣

[@shayfarrelly6789]

i love how on the level with all of the skulls where youre meant to push "defeat" out of the way with the rocks, he overcomplicates it and uses the words to push it instead

[@richardfarrer5616]

And once again you cost my money for something that will cause me nothing but pain.

[@mudcrab3420]

13:46 - Strangely that is EXACTLY what my manager said to me in my last performance review.

[@epiclyfunnyfail]

When you realise he could have just moved the "is" down with one Baba and then moved "Baba" and "You" down with both Baba's and not have to over complicate moving "is".

[@Tabbyclaw]

Gotta admit, I was waiting for "Well, ladies and gentlemen, I think you get the idea." Which would have been an entertaining lie.

[@casualyoutubeviewer9198]

This is such a genius game, I am in awe

[@ActuallyAcce]

"Let's logic this out..." Proceeds to do every unessecary thing possible unlogically. I love your puzzle videos Jon.

[@jarradscarborough7915]

JON is CONFUSED SITUATION is NORMAL

[@blebonick7088]

man I love that catullus reference "odi et amo" "I hate and I love"

[@tracyh5751]

Wow Jon, you are really good at this game. I think we all want a series. A bit of advice: sometimes puzzles can really stump the player in this game, and it can be more productive to move onto another level and come back later, especially because other levels might tutorialise ideas needed for a solution. The game is really good at always giving you plenty of levels to play at any given time. Hope to see more. :)

[@KurosakiYukigo]

I predict that Jon goes insane by the end of this video

[@kendallchaos]

That implies he wasn’t already at the start

[@TheGrinningViking]

For once I played a game before Jon! This is a tough one at later levels. Easy early on though, and you can skip the ones you get stuck on. He should be fine unless he misses something obvious.... WAIT. NO. THIS. JON. HE'S DOOMED. SOMEONE SEND THE POOR MAN FOOD.

[@bylertoe1]

I enjoyed this video when I was sober and figured out the puzzles before Jon and now I'm drunk I'm just so confused but having so much fun

Yes! I've been wanting to see you play this from the moment I learned it existed.

[@B6B]

This was good. A nice chill puzzle solver. I'd definitely watch more of this.

[@xarm23]

Chill yes. Mind-breakingly difficult in the later levels? Also yes.

[@benhemmings1290]

Jon, please do more. Its such an amazing game and seeing you get that confused is hilarious

[@iagomiguezmonforte5238]

When this game came out, I was just waiting for you to play (and suffer). Thank you and please make it a serie!

[@WaterDroplet02]

ahhh!!!!! i absolutely loved watching you slowly suffer while playing this game, it sucks this is the only video you've done on it so far, though :( would really love to see more!

[@neonswift]

"Oh no...Side level that isn't even numbered"... Funnily enough that was my exact verbal response when I got to that level too! XD

[@patrickbo2045]

Wow Jon, you're incredibly good at this. Also, what kind of mad genius made this game?

[@wu1ming9shi]

Someone that's good at programming because the same type of logic is applied there too.

[@juliajs1752]

That was astonishingly much fun. Thanks for yet another game in my library!

[@radicalantitheist]

i only watch for jon's suffering, or evil jon inflicting suffering.

[@JulesVonBasslake]

Oh, this is going to be great. Not only is the Egg doing a series on Baba, now the egg carton is doing one as well :D Double the Baba-egg goodness :P

[@Jesin00]

I love this game and I would absolutely watch a continuation of this series. (The un-numbered levels do tend to be harder.)

[@Favoriter911]

This was seriously awesome to watch! Great video Jon! :) Would love to see more of it!

Please Jon play more of this. It is such Entertainment

[@GrizzlyHillman]

This is the first time I've been frustrated watching you play a game LOL

[@TheObsesedAnimeFreaks]

you were on the right track with the baba is you, you need to make baba is wall and baba is you then you can just win. you have 2 is, just keep moving baba is you and is down till you get baba 1 above the wall then push the is into the level boundry.

[@stormypinkness4030]

I love this game, so great at making you feel smart and dumb at the same time. Please play more.

[@gammaghoul11]

I feel like I'm going insane watching this

[@struanrobertson7128]

The fact he discovered a double baba moving baba is you down, then decided it wouldnt work, even though baba is wall is stop and baba is you then diddnt even try had me

[@struanrobertson7128]

I realise that wasnt going to work, but i wanted to see him realise that

[@paper__crane]

Nicely done, you finished a level I haven't finished yet. I did figure it out while watching the video before you did, though. ;)

[@brandondrake4609]

My brain hurt watching Jon’s brain get hurt

[@ZefVolk]

"Thumb" is "Up"

[@tetsubo57]

Jon is not a total idiot. He can't even do that right.

[@Mistwolfss]

I feel like Jon doesn't really do puzzle games they just give him headaches.

[@harrygrant4122]

You could have just done "wall ks push" for the last one

[@xarm23]

Actually, he couldn't. Wall is stuck in a place were it can't be pushed around. So you could make thing is wall or thing is stop, but Wall is Stop can't be changed.

[@bigtallpaul]

31:21 I definitely said "Okay" with the same desparation while playing this.

[@loganagle746]

BABER IS YOU

[@BRUXXUS]

I always find it strange that Brits drop Rs from the end of words but add them in without thinking to words that don't have them.

[@ze_rubenator]

@@BRUXXUS It's called a "linking r," and it's used specifically between a word that ends on a stressed vowel and a word that begins with a stressed vowel.

[@_general_error]

This would be great for Live Stream! Jon must be... adorable after 4 hours of brain usage.

[@monageeuk6504]

screaming bc you keep doing "rock is baba" when you need to do "rock is you"

yes! we need more of this! more suffering Jon!

[@nighthawk8412]

John, Baba is a sheep, just like the nursery rhyme "Baba Black Sheep". In this case the sheep is white instead of black. By the way, thank you for making this video. I did not own it before watching it, have not finished watching it, have already purchased and played the game, and am thoroughly enjoying it.

[@AdamThornton]

+100 for the _odi et amo_ drop there.

[@7thsealord888]

It's so cute when Jon tries to reason i out. ;)

[@mattevans4377]

I don't know why, but every time Jon either completed a level, or figured something out, I clapped. Also, is this game on console?

[@turbosnail413]

It's available on the Switch, not sure of others

[@0LoneTech]

Yes. I regret buying it on a console, for multiple reasons; one of them being it doesn't get updates there.

[@bdk336]

It wouldn't be a puzzle game if Jon didn't overcomplicate the answers the moment it gets challenging

[@dustyb58]

Quick, Jon! The red baba is death! The green baba is death! Two babas are death and one baba is win!

[@_Cerb_]

I appreciate that the character is named Baba. Imagine if it were named Xavier or something, the whole thing would feel a lot harder and less fun lmao
