[@UwUnotewew]

I love how Arin can read exactly how to do something aloud, then both he and Dan immediately forget as if hit with an MiB mind wipe 🤣Like your unlocks going to the vending machines, and the tickets can be used on special vending machines

[@robo7643]

[@dmetrihayes5713]

Yes, when Arin asked where to find the unlockables I was like, yeah, they just forgot the intro again, huh?

Game Grumps Pay Attention to the Tutorial Challenge (Impossible)

[@greyblackstone5353]

And they were literally stood next to the fucking vending machines seconds after wondering how to get their stuff

[@Mad_as_a_Swan]

Literally, eating supper, talking to my friend about war crimes, barely paying attention, remembered the rules. Danny n Arnold really remember nothing they read in games XD

[@RaiderJake26]

The way the grumps seem to react to internet memes during recording sessions that are still at least months to a year after those memes were popular/commonplace is EXACTLY what i expect while they play a game about old people

[@vigo2669]

Some of these episodes are made months in advance.

[@Kyosumari]

​@@vigo2669 And even then, they're still behind the times. XD

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

The memes are still popular. That's what make them memes. We still have Rick Astley and Drake and other classic meme templates years later. They don't suddenly go away like some seem to think. Memes are popular because they're spread and known and you can use any meme at any time. That's what I do all the time. It's about the humor or making a connection with the format.

[@Ozmodeus_]

I wanna watch them play "thank goodness you're here" the game where you just slap everything

Should we expect anything less from Arin Does-Not-Read.

[@LittleMissLounge]

@@miguelnewmexico8641 Maybe first or second grade (6-8 years old).

[@esharp48]

Arin's favorite type of game is a more open game that just throws you right in by having the tutorial "just experiment" up until the exact moment he gets thrown into a more open game that nust throws you right in by having the tutorial "just experiment."

[@zupasha]

31:40 bro, i'm, 23 and I'd say MacGyver. I don't understand how generations work. I grew up with everything my parents experienced, mainly because of hand-me-downs. But also, in South Africa, we tend to get everything really late, so once the generation has passed, then we get those things.

[@a_men_diet]

I have the same issue about generations. In my case I'm Argentinian and most pop culture would reach like three or four years later here

[@milo7256]

21 (american) and id say macgyver as well but honestly i dont think ive ever watched an episode of macgyver in my life so im not quite sure why

[@sb_gaming1867]

In 18, both my parents are South African. I was raised in England. I, too, would say MacGyver. There seems to be a pattern here

[@mayvalley]

22 year old Canadian who’s never seen an episode of MacGyver, I also say it! Just one of those things you pick up from pop culture and older adults

[@vigorouslethargy]

35, immediately knew what Arin was going for. Dan was just having a brain fart it seems, he got it in the end.

[@the6ofdiamonds]

I'm surprised how long it took Dan to realise Arin was trying to get him to say "MacGyver-ing". Oh well.

[@safebox36]

If someone makes a Game Grumps platformer or Ninja Gaiden romhack, you HAVE to call it Ninja Guy Dan.

[@sleepyote]

My life partner loves the "ahhhh the French" meme and quotes it often lol. My partner also loves Game Grumps, and we watch Smeef comps together. I'm lucky my partner and I share the same love for Game Grumps. 🧡

[@realmatic10]

You work at a law firm?

[@sleepyote]

@@realmatic10 I used partner because we aren't married or engaged yet, and boyfriend just feels juvenile to me. Also, I'm non binary, so I'd prefer if he called me partner as well.

[@realmatic10]

@@sleepyote Using the term “partner” to describe your bf/gf/so is just so dry and anodyne, it gives me the ick…and it actually conveys that you have a closer relationship than you actually do, haha. Don’t you think it might be just smidge pretentious to refer to your bf/gf/so as your “partner”, because you think those terms come off as “juvenile”, even though that would be a better literal description of a relationship that was in its infancy or “juvenile” stages? TLDR: Stop calling your FWB your “partner”…you’re giving people the wrong impression.🫡😉

[@realmatic10]

[@heatherfield]

I knew the answer Arin was looking for was Macgyver, but as a Canadian I couldn't help but think of "Red Green"!

[@Penquinn14]

Dan is weirdly confident about the mechanics of this game, telling Arin there's a crafting system and a weapon weight system

[@alfiowo]

Ninja Guy Dan is a great Starbomb song waiting to happen

[@Epicgorilla101]

Wait at 14:47 he just figured out that Q and E are the arms/hands? They are even right there perfectly with the WASD. Oh our sweet summer child Arin, we love you.

Classic game grumps moment: Arin passing by the dropped chainsaw in the pond over and over again 😂 Never stop being you, guys. 10/10

[@Itonomen]

Fun fact in the very first episode of river monsters Jeremy Wade does this exact expiriment with pirahnas where he gets into a pool with them to see if they'd eat him if they were hungry and they didn't

[@frewforall5239]

I definitely thought he was going to say “Jerry-rigging.”

[@danielbeaumont3744]

Remember when Dan told Arin about the scatman "skabadabadidibibidi" matching the motions of someone falling down the stairs I feel like this is the perfect game to illustrate that

[@Amins88]

I hope they'll consider doing another episode after they remember that you get upgrades from vending machines. It's pretty much the primary gameplay loop of the game, so ignoring it kind of removes the feeling of progression and variety.

The saddest part about the MacGuyver reference is that they did revive the show a few years ago, but young people didn't see it because hardly any of them watch broadcast TV (not an indictment; just an observation).

In this episode Arin struggles with the concept of a Sandbox game and should've given the controls to Dan at the start of the episode. You can see Arin lose all motivation as soon as he saw it was all about fucking around.
