Rat Simulator has the BEST NPCs

[@allenlewis5689]

I would KILL for a version of this game where not only are you in the House Party house, but the actual events of the game House Party are taking place around you, complete with voice acting and everything.

They're not nearly big enough, though. For true realism they need to be at least half the size of the rest of the body.

That "House Party" house asset is called "HQ Residential House" and John Wolfe saw it SO much playing horror games, he did a whole GameJam contest where people would use the asset to make him little games. It was great.

[@sunnyd1722]

I cannot believe Dan and Arin just said “sticking out your gyatt for the rizzler”.

[@ZombieaidZ]

All because harambe died. Everything started going so so wrong once he was taken from us

[@upg5147]

​@@ZombieaidZHarambe was reverse Jesus confirmed.

[@kingblanketfort]

I literally have zero idea of what this means

[@sunnyd1722]

So gyatt means ass, like “gdang that ass” it’s an expression (and now a noun) meaning surprise of how nice an ass looks. Rizzler is like riddler but with rizz. Rizz being swag or charisma.

[@repairman-man]

@1722 Rizzler i can understand, but i have no idea where anyone got the other stuff from. gyatt makes me think of gat, which is a gun. and i don't like the idea of anybody's ass being a gun.

[@YouAreThatGuy]

@@Darthquackiusso wouldn’t you agree then? The game looks hard to control

[@Deltobbi1984]

@omwendys The game looks like it controls like shit but at the same time Arin does manage to make things harder for himself. He uses the poison spit early on which should establish to him you can use it to knock the house owners down for a little while and yet he doesn't use it on them again until 20 mins into the video....The only time he used it before that was to spit at the pestman after the game clearly tells you to hide from the pestman

[@Amins88]

Mama mia, the memories of the TotK playthrough are flooding back. But in a way, it kind of makes it all worth it for the few moments where he accidentally pulls off those incredibly clutch moves.

[@ariannathompson5466]

Is this a reference to Arins favourite album, melancholy and the infinite sadness by the smashing pumpkins? (Because despite all his rage he’s still just a rat in a cage)

0:14 Sometimes I forget that Arin and Dan are familiar with Gen Z And Gen Alpha humor- not even five seconds in and I’ve got whiplash 💀 The fact that Arin has also watched every skibbity toilet video aswell. The internet dads are hip with the times.. and it scares me.
