September 2nd: The Game • 9.2.19

[@chugga]

Ohhhh... The white text for the vlog title is on the title screen! I was about to grill you for this being the first time that didn't happen.

[@MajorKerina]

chuggaaconroy You, good sir, are indeed an expert on StephenVlog etiquette and procedure ;)

[@The_Intelligent_One]

Stephen: "I need to catch up on almost two months of vlogs" Also Stephen: "I'm gonna make a whole game about this single vlog day" Stephen aren't you already overworking yourself, why do you keep adding to your workload? :P

[@ThunderHam]

I don’t think he overworks himself. He knows his own limits.

[@pyr0_jack]

I dont think we're going to have another 24 or surl type video for a while

[@GavinKnightYT]

He made most of it of the plane

[@MotionDan]

06:51 I was half-expecting the kid to say, "I'm just a kid!"

[@PyraXadon]

Aw man, Stephen got a sword? And fought a minotaur? And managed to bring an outside coke into an airport and onto the plane?! Damnit Stephen, this is why you film things! Now the only thing we have is this RPGmaker recreation instead of footage of the actual event!

[@JDeO1997]

So this is why the vlogs are behind. Worth it

[@synthetic20]

All I could think of this entire time was, "Chaz is going to kill Stephen for taking the time to do something like this." Honestly, though, this may be one of my favorite vlogs ever. Welcome to China!

[@miichael_163]

Did anyone else notice that Stephen and Mal's level were their ages? :D

[@PinkXxKiss]

I really enjoyed the other stats, IE that Stephen was more of a physical attacker and Mal was the only one of them with MP, etc! :D

[@tmoran527]

PinkXxKiss what type of skills would come with mal’s class? Drawing Summons?

[@MagicLuver101]

pretty sure his HP is number of vlogs or maybe it was flight time

[@SkyHakym]

*Gets Coke from the vending machine* Old Man: YOU CAN DRINK THAT VILE STUFF?

[@nsArmoredFrog]

I am Bus.....Driver. XD Nice work!

[@jahtnamas]

"Hey everybody! It's me, Bus... Driver." god that's a DEEP CUT

[@stephenvlog]

I'm here for those deep cuts, Mashi.

[@jahtnamas]

@@stephenvlog i haven't heard that name in years.

[@Caprizant]

Oh my god the absolute madman

[@Caprizant]

Thoughts: 1. God bless Coke for restoring all of your health 2. Why don't my bus drivers look like hot retired adventurers 3. The entire scene on the bus is hilarious 4. Clever way to preserve footage space since you didn't take your laptop with you ;P There was so much more I wanted to comment on, but needless to say, I'm gonna be submitting a few fan favorites clips from this vlog :V

[@kiwikipedia]

I appreciate that the bus driver looks like he's about to go GTA on the other buses. Only one bus can exist.

[@jamieyakimets839]

I appreciate how wicked cool he looks! I mean, just check out the (neo-Phoenix Wright) one-lock hanging-down hair!

[@Nickster891]

stephen: IT'S NOT THAT KIND OF GAME * proceeds to kill the minotaur * me: lol XD

[@asms1633]

lol xd

[@ChrispyWings]

Darko lol xd

[@TomFawkes]

Is this why I saw you on RPG Maker at 4 in the morning?!

[@stephenvlog]

No, I just left the program open all night :V

[@morsfero]

StephenVlog So it would seem,

[@BHLani]

I really wanted Bus Driver to say, "We'll be in Onett soon."

[@LizzieQueen18]

Bus Driver is my favorite character

[@emmi9283]

This is why the vlogs are my favourite thing to watch from you since they are such a creative outlet for you! I'm glad I watched this for breakfast because that just gave me a great start to the day :) Well done!! And I'm also really excited for the China vlogs!

[@SkyHakym]

So instead of vlogging about you playing Dragon Quest for 9 hours on a plane ride to China, you were inspired by the RPG game you played to make an RPG about you vlogging about you playing Dragon Quest for 9 hours on a plane ride to China. ...Stephen, you madman.

[@QueenslayerSora]

Is Masae and Emile DLC because that would be dope

[@zdoggs1370]

Oh my goodness this was so charming and great. We need an offical StephenVlog RPG

[@QueenslayerSora]

And Emile and Masae become party members

[@zdoggs1370]

[@KiwiLeeScipio]

@@QueenslayerSora Dude. I would play this. Make it. If I had any talent at making video games, I would try. Learned I struggled with it in a high school programming class.

[@alexisa1378]

@@QueenslayerSora this is amazing, do you mind if I use some of these ideas to make one on RPG maker?

[@TannersGameMuseum]

This is so creative! I'm honestly blown away, great job Stephen!

[@jefftentacles798]

This is incredible...

[@MamaMrL789]

I can hear their voices even when it's just all text based :D

[@adamchaplin9702]

Right? Im glad im not the only one

[@supersayin5gogeta]

Not only was this really charming but the level of storytelling was amazing. I mean Stephen using Chekhov's Gun is amazing, and I somehow knew it was gonna come. "If you introduce a really cool sword in the first act, you better use it by the third." Overall incredible Stephen.

[@NYBredBamaFed]

That was really great! What an inspiring way to create a vlog day that you forgot to film. Very well done Stephen! I’ve said this before and will say it again, it’s content like this that keeps me subbing to you.

[@TsunamiKitten56]

My god. I knew something was up when the vlogs began to lag behind :D I loved this so so much, I hope you enjoyed making it, Stephen!!

[@YourPalRal]

I love the pause when Bus Driver says his name! A nice callback to Chaz being the bus driver in the FaB movie! Also, I'm sad Stephen didn't actually film himself fighting a monster inside the plane. It would've been a spectacle I'm sure, because this is 100% accurate.

[@bc2014]

Your Pal, Ral! That bit feels as accurate as Thomas’s page on the StephenWiki

[@thesilentedge2123]

So....this "vlog" might be my new favourite day on the channel.

[@ElpisGalaxy]

That was really cool! I know this was Dragon Quest inspired but I really got some Earthbound vibes from this as well.

[@Guindimere]

OH my goodness I LOVE this! So worth the wait. I think this is a top contender for best Vlog!

[@adamrhodes9533]

...That bus station music was SO Earthbound-like...

[@Nickster891]

* clicks the video then a question hits me * wait this is a game right why isn't it on stephenplays XD couldn't resist

[@RubiksMoon]

THAT WAS awesome not to mention all the 4th wall breaking lol

[@FlashtheFirefox]

This is REALLY cool, I have several versions of RPG Maker but I don’t fully understand how to use them, so seeing something like this is fascinating to me.

[@gigglepox9000]

Stephen you absolute mad lad

[@TheShiningEnergy]

I love how this breaks the fourth wall constantly

[@joshsleezeYT]

I can't with how adorable this is.

[@nukirisame5298]

So good. It's nice to be reminded how you guys are some of the best content creators on KZbin.

[@KingKuron_]

*i don't think i've ever seen segue spelled out*

[@tinmandw]

Yeah what is a segue?

[@rarm5899]

David Whitley Transition from one scene or topic to the next

[@tinmandw]

Oh...damn I thought it was spelled "segway"

[@DarkusFireBlaze3582]

@@tinmandw Segway refers to the small vehicle that's like a hoverboard with the handle on it

[@NaviNeku24]

David Whitley It is pronounced the same way, though! People (including myself) get confused on how that word is pronounced. 😅

[@BellaKay4813]

I love this so much. Especially the Mark sprite for some reason

[@Trent2Luigi]

That was great, gotta love some forth wall breaking, self aware videogame humor.

[@Arion661]

I love how it seems like Stephen just got randomly patted down for a sword even though the girl didnt work there. A complete stranger just checked Stephen for contraband

[@ianthesilverfire5224]

That was awesome! Thank you, Stephen!

[@KiwiLeeScipio]

Watching this while dealing with a winter cough... not a good idea. Laughed myself into a coughing fit. The customers out in the hall probably think I'm dying. Loved this so much.

[@BollyBibby]

10:00 The fact that that guy kicked a monster out of the bathroom had me laughing for like five minutes

[@staycalmbehappy81]

This really is one of the most underrated vlog channels on youtube

[@KrispyKrabby]

I...don't know what I just watched, but I loved every second of it.

[@LoZFangirl1]

That was awesome! I would love to see a full game with you guys

[@SecretAdeptGS]

I was smiling ear to ear from this. There was something so... wholesome about this. What a fun vlog

[@rgsxdgeorge5474]

Fantastic job! stephen this was really clever and funny hope you make more of this in the future.

[@kherichi]

This is so legendary and hilarious. Great addition to the Georg mythos!

[@AmInIowa]

Having now watched all of it, this was terrific! I thoroughly enjoyed it!

[@heliotropei]

This was super well done, I’m very impressed! Humorous too, I laughed throughout the whole thing

[@monadoboy64]

That was awesome. I hope Stephen makes more games in the future!

[@kaykayj2005]

That was amazing! I know you said it took you a while to do but it was worth it. Great job!

[@MrMario9608]

Several years from now, there will be "Hey Stephen, remember when you fought a minotaur on an airplane?" Stephen: "What?"

[@InvaderNebu]

oh my GOD this vlog was ridiculously adorable, you did a great job!

[@yoshithekid18]

This is amazing! Awesome job Stephen!

[@Greeneric44]

i was recently (yesterday?) going through your past playlist on stephenplays and ended up on "specials" playlist. i was just seeing what exactly is in that playlist now and it reminded me of RPG marker stream when i saw it in the list. it made me wonder if it was going to come back, since you really enjoy it, to the channel. Glad you got back into it !

[@redtwo006]

This just goes to prove to the world why your channels are awesome.

[@kitniasooh6035]

OHHH MY GOD I LOVE THIS! Ohh my goodness. And Mark and Rhonda look perfect like themselves lol. And wow this is so cool!

[@guguig9746]

I love every single detail about this

[@skyehajime1668]

I'm sure this was a ton of work, but this entire video was amazing XD Incidentally, sorry you had to deal with the minotaur, I hate it when that happens on my international flights

[@D_H_VOLTAGE]

I'm happy to see more RPG Maker content from Stephen.

[@Katemccutcheon1246]

this is my favourite vlog of this year!

[@rarm5899]

Man, I hope he shows some pics of how the Really Cool Sword and Minotaur looked in real life!

[@stephenvlog]

Unfortunately with that last blow, the Really Cool Sword got lodged in the Minotaur's chest. When it disappeared, so did the sword. It's a shame, too :(

[@MasterComputerCU]

Hey Stephen, don't listen to the hate or pay attention to the thumbs downs this was amazing, and it really made my day! Hope you had as much fun making this as I did watching it.👍🏼

[@legendaryalexandrea]

This is freaking awesome! Great work :D

[@Kelly.8]

I love this vlog; it's so creative!

I love this!!! Such a cute vlog idea, and very well done!

[@Sephiroth1204]

Ah man, I laughed when I saw the vending machine had 'purple stuff' and the Sunny D. That's an old reference there. This was fantastic! One of the best Coca-Cola ads I've ever seen.

That was pretty cool! I've been messing around with RPG Maker as well, the FES version is all I have though. It's fun to mess around with! But I ran into a weird glitch when making a game and for the love of me can't stop it from happening. Still, that was awesome!
