Sajam Learns UNIST | Step 2: Choosing a Character

[@TartarusKogasa]

the quick dismissal of hilda made me laugh

[@ragnarokhead19000]

7:47 has been the FGC’s experience with UNIST this week and I’m so happy.

[@ApexGale]

that is how literally everyone reacts when first hearing byakuya's theme

[@justsomeguy727]

"First thing I see in chat is Yuzuriha Bathwater" I fucking love our community lmao

[@nobodygoodfr9556]

"If someone walks into the room and I'm playing this character, I won't be able to explain myself." Me, a Nanase main since UNIEL: *sweats*

[@CarpeGuitarrem]

The flat-out nope on Mika was downright hilarious.

[@Ichithix]

The reaction to Mika, I died.

[@oSilentPhoenIX]

Sajam: "How do you guys sleep at night playing this character?" Me: "Like a god damn baby."

[@thatshadowguy1005]

the sheer disbelief when he sees Phonon's normals is what gets me

[@naokikashima8054]

Yuzu doesn’t suck. You just haven’t broken your hands enough yet.

[@doublevendetta]

I hear this description a lot. Like, a LOT

[@naokikashima8054]

That’s because Yuzu requires a lot of inputs. You know Naoto in BlazBlue: CentralFiction? With the 1 frame dash cancels? I don’t think Yuzu’s quite that bad, but she’s damn near close, so I’m told.

[@SicklySeraphYT]

Are you talking about Vatista?

[@magicalgirl1296]

I like how so much of the first impressions is just marveling at how ridiculous this game seems at times, like when he's just looking at the hitboxes on Phonon.

[@aminzakariah2891]

Man this is why i subscribe to you, genuine interaction and just fun to hear your thoughts if this game. Might buy it

[@ziggszag1650]

Buy it!!

[@AmaterrasCh]

RIP, Mika got dropped :'( Sajam is not cut out to be a member of the "XD" cult.

[@norinori6414]

"Enkidu is the worst character in the game." No u

[@siyar8300]

BUFF ENKIDU

[@FyrenRei]

Best theme in the game too

[@duru_mii]

unist is my first fighting game and i bought it bc of enkidu

[@tristankeech4070]

Not playing enkidu therefore I am convinced he is now a girl.

[@third-ratedude4234]

YES! I AM!

[@FF18Cloud]

Eltnum's theme is still my favorite...even when I didn't own the game nor watch matches the last 5 years... I literally just bought the game... Eltnum's UNIEL theme has been on my playlist since like... Forever

[@mattkramer6061]

Sajam gets swatted at 11:05

[@effive7817]

4:39 Soundly, with our body pillows

[@THeKallOfCtulu]

Beat Eat Nest, Rushing Heart, Blood Drain and Nightwalker are the best tracks in the game.

[@carrion-fairy]

You forget Open War

[@vulcan422]

-Scraper Sky High -Night Walker -Rushing Heart -Unseen Entities -Monochrome Memory -Overwhelm Despaair -Blood Drain ~Again~ -Cross Thought -Beat Eat Nest -Sound of Night Wind -Forceful Step -Flame & Destiny -Extreme Stream All godlike.

[@nepgeardam6807]

9:46 Elbow Vortex, sometimes just happens to you when Practicing Yuzu :3.

[@TakeOffYourBoots]

lol that's usually how i finish my lab sessions

[@dariang4725]

"I didn't know this game had good music." WHAT???? HOW did you not know that? Listen to the melty blood OST too!

[@CreationsFlare]

People don't know about that French Bread mixtape.

[@marrowyoutube]

I knew french bread was fire ever since I heard night walker for the first time in tag

[@SimonGilliard]

1:02 "i don't know if he is good or not" Oh boi little did he know

[@PAGESIXVALENTINEFARRIS]

His reaction to Mika is the exact same reaction I had and I now know him to be a man of culture

[@neonthai91]

Dude you're really making me wanna cop 40$ for this!!!

[@mikejonesnoreally]

That's not a bad price for a new game and 20 is a respectable (if not more than a bit recycled) cast. :3

[@ziggszag1650]

Buy it!!

[@Iyokuu]

Do it. It's on sale for PSN for $20 (was when I checked yesterday), so there's an option too. PC you can find it cheaper on sites like GreenmanGaming as well.

[@JayAreAitch]

that's not what cop means

[@Zelxion]

*elbow*

[@TheEpicPancake]

Beat eat nest is just an absolute masterpiece of a character theme. Perfectly fitting with Byakuya's whole shtick while just being generally bomb ass.

[@NOSAJPERSON]

wow i love how the frame data shows up next to the inputs

[@hijster479]

Those numbers aren't Frame data, they represent how long an input is held.

[@mikejonesnoreally]

That's friggin' genius and every fighting game should have it! 0.0

[@lhemi52]

I don’t understand the dislike of Nanase’s theme

[@chkmte1304]

2:15 A few years later she becomes a masked wrestler going by the alias Rainbow Mika

[@vulcan422]

7:09 It was in this moment that Sajam knew...he fucked up.

[@Hattori75]

It took me until now to realize Nanase's theme sounds like a bunch of those screaming rubber chickens.

[@conanbdetective]

Enkidu my boi doesnt even get a notice

[@nomnommat]

“I can fuck with this theme” - sajam 2019

[@AMVaddictionist]

Going to counter pick Sajam with Mika

[@meeachael627]

5:58 when you get blinded by the super

[@mrksmn5559]

I think anyone can agree that Byakuya's theme is top tier, but only True God level beings can say Phonon's is the best in the game.

[@CC-fi3pp]

Yuzu is great, you just have to accept the arthritis that comes with her execution that's all, become one with the rheumatism and she actually whoops ass.

[@ONIGIRIKINGU]

Yuzu ain't hard if you played vatista

[@Alza.art4518]

Love all the in depth study of each of the characters, people recommending specific characters based off their abilities and place on the tiers and classes… …all culminating in Sajam just picking byakuya because his music sounded good. That’s so based.

[@kholdkhaos64ray11]

*Cries in Waldstein*

[@tonyb3123]

"No"

[@burnin8trxx]

1:59 had me crying dude lol

[@UnGreej]

8:33 is my favourite part

[@bibigreen6533]

Merkava looks like Hakumen and Arakune had a baby. Which is pretty sick.

[@Giraffinator]

God Bless Merkava

[@jwu8078]

Good choice. Byakuya is my main too.

[@AdAce21]

0:30 lolol

[@hockey1973]

Wagner is Leo but with faster buttons basically and better neutral.

[@issacsarrowtail7212]

She still ooks!

[@viceanterra3]

Just gonna pick Enkidu and pray.

[@CringeOldMan]

Straight up the same feeling I get when I accidentally pick Mika. NOPE

[@DeepCDiva]

Oh man, no love for the Blood Boy?

[@Guccibear100]

Damn, I play Hilda and Orie, you just gonna pass on my ladies like that?

[@ubadman1]

hilda is one of the most fun zoners ive ever played

[@Guccibear100]

@@ubadman1 She is the only zoner I play in any game.

[@_Merlin3]

I got physically hurt when there wasn't even a comment for Orie

[@MilanorTSW200]

[@xDJKerox]

Yeah I think he should give Hilda a chance since he said he likes zoners...

Just throw in the Evangelion theme in the mix for the lulz ..

I really want him to try waldstein!

[@smugsaber3063]

What's with that Gootecks tier laugh lmfao 2:03

[@yohachi0154]

tho Yuzu is not a weak character if youve invested time with her and memorized all of her follow ups shes up there with Seth en cough Wagner(fuck those buttons they hella fast as fuck)

[@lorenischangstonhughes]

Wagner is the cammy of the game

[@mikejonesnoreally]

Sajam, so a hypothetical for you: You are told you can be made eternal but there's a catch. You have to move to a deserted island, (because that's just how that always happens) live with Xi, and you can only have BBTAG, UNIST, or DoA6. Which game do you pick? Once your done laughing/sobbing etc.... :3

[@shadowmaksim]

Yay, FBI jokes. Those never get old.

[@SicklySeraphYT]

8:34 As a mika player and a part of the mika club; we dont shut up

[@graphixxart5601]

How did this guy pick the two people I main tho

[@vinniezero3125]

No Eltnum love :"(

[@VillainViran]

I was waiting to hear the theme song :[

[@RKzero10]

Play Enkidu No balls

[@gravecode]

how is the online gameplay?

[@readysetshrimps2986]

2:00 XD

[@Yukari_MAiG]

So basically Sajam would ignore 80% of the girls? On the first sight I mean. :P

[@hushwonder2070]

Yuzu best girl.

[@chkmte1304]

Soooo Yuzuriha is female Johnny judging off how her normal look

[@GarethXL]

but way harder to play then johnny

[@THeKallOfCtulu]

She's not really the same kind of pressure monster that Johnny is due to not having an equivalent to coin, and how she can't just Zwei YRC whenever she has meter. She's a lot more of a spacing character, but just with really oppressive spacing tools. She also has pretty decent movement which Johnny lacks.

[@justsomeguy727]

She's more female Vergil since they're both users of the same style of swordplay. Where as Johnny isn't.

[@akarabbit839]

Why does he sound like avoidingthepuddle?

[@BlackHanzo]

but yuzuriha and phonon are zoners tho

[@rhanke5673]

this reminds me of how much i hate wagner, she presses buttons and then shes just plus, always

[@devenny1770]

YuzerihaWWWW

[@Jans6ever]

>Yuzuriha >Weak Oh boy.

[@King_of_the_Shrooms]

Hilda. No.

[@TravisOuttaHell]

Whaddya mean????

[@cRoW_Dman2002]

Byakuya can burn

[@xDJKerox]

Hey sajam, you should really give Hilda a chance! =(

[@cwmuldrow6591]

The toxic masculinity jumped out

[@stonebbq5474]

Enkidu isn't actually worst in the game, it's probably Mika

[@mikejonesnoreally]

0:45 Oh that is *it!* That's almost a dead ringer for Naoto! Man, they ain't even tryin' to *hide* it. No respect at all. @ 1:47 I can just see the "creative" departments strokey beard meeting for this one: "Oh! Hey guys, brain drizzle! What if she had *both* arms!! Huh? Huh! ^^" Jesus...... @ 7:42 Okay, so far one original character. (I think.) That's who I think I would pick, or the one that looks like Aigis's kid sister or Platinum if she stole that big red demon cyborg thingy guy's hands. :3

[@steveng6721]

Shut up personafag

[@thyme3972]

mikejonesnoreally 1. Eltnum, both the character and the series that she is from (which is a fighting game mind you) came out in 2002, and Persona 4 came out in 2008, with P4A coming out in 2012. So if you _really_ want to be like that Naoto should be putting respect on *Eltnum’s* name, not the other way around. So that’s strike 1 2. _laughs nervously_ No, just, no. On a design, character, and Gameplay standpoint Baiken and Yuzu are *astronomically* different, with the only similarity being a stance and a parry (even then the purposes of those moves are completely different). But as for absentmindedly making her? Well; “When the producer went through the list of planned characters, he noticed that wasn't any character with revealing clothes or any character with truly cheerful personality.” That’s from an interview with the developers behind Unist and Melty, French Bread. And well her design is just a blending of past and present clothing styles, nothing else to see there. So that’s Strike 2. 3. Byakuya’s pretty fun, I’d recommend him if you like setplay. Still 2 Strikes 4. *Ooooooh*, it all makes sense now! You’re thinking of becoming a Mika player 😮. No wonder your entire comment seems dumb as hell. Much of a meme that Mika is I can’t let headassery like this slide. 3 Strikes Now if you were genuinely interested in the game and asked a question like “Does x character play like y character?” Then I’d be happy to oblige you and answer you in a nice way. But instead you made yourself look like a dumbass and I have to play the part of attempting to set you straight. So if you have read all the way through this, congrats. Now hopefully you can understand that what you said was factually incorrect, and now you are _somewhat_ more knowledgable on where one of the characters in the game comes from. If you ask a legitimate question I’ll do what I can to answer, but if you say something stupid again then I’ll just ignore it. Have a good day/whatever time you’re reading this.

[@mikejonesnoreally]

*ahem* 1. 0.0 *ATLUUUUUUS!!!!* C'mere girl you got some 'splainin' to do......yes, *again!* Don't even make me start about "My world my way!" I'm not mad just......disappointed. No go to your room and think up another sequel to Etrian Odyssey. :3 *An' no Catherine remakes!!* 0.0 Aw Damnit! >.

[@thyme3972]

mikejonesnoreally A month late, since you didn’t even bother to write my name in to mention me but here’s my response. *All and any problems you had with people calling you out could have been avoided if you asked normally* You could of asked if the game’s community was any good or if it was to be avoid if you really wanted to know. But instead you decided to say what can easily be interpreted as something along the lines of: “This game’s characters are just ripoffs of another game, looks stupid.” You see where the problem lies with saying something like that? It’d be foolish to think that you can poke at a bee’s nest and not expect to get stung. As for the “inane sub-references mini game” That’s because there is a history to the game and the genre as a whole. The same can be said about *any* activity, competitive or otherwise. On the note of playing the “joke” character, there is nothing at all wrong with playing them, but as the character is a “joke” among the community, being considered a goofball because you play said character will 9/10 times come in tandem with each other. And just because you mentioned that these things are “your opinion” it does not at all mean that you have the _carte blanche_ to say something that’s easily seen as an attack on a game that has a passionate community without any kind of scrutiny whatsoever. Along with the fact that this is the year 2019 where the vast majority of people on the internet have a chip on their shoulder and what surprises me more is how you weren’t expecting some kind of response the ones you’ve received (from me and the other two commenters). All in all, I can at least respect playing who you want to play and “taking the temperature” of a community that your unfamiliar with, but the problem was your method of doing so. No one likes it when someone tries to stir things up in a way that causes more detriments than benefits. So next time, maybe try a reasonable approach to interacting with a new group? I still want my Etrian Odyssey though. That we can both agree on.

That's not how "Wagner" is pronounced...
