Show of the Week: Monster Hunter World and Jane's Chupacabra Hunting Challenge

[@MegaNasheeds]

"No, no work related stuff" "Oh, I've been playing Monster Hunter" Goddamn That's the dream, ain't it?

[@clockworklullaby8295]

Hanzalah Rehman yeah when i heard that i laughed

[@starlight_circuitry]

Jane: "I can't spare any bullets to help with town safety" Also Jane: **shoots a boulder for looking suspicious**

[@ZONEACE]

ELLEN: [incoherent excitement] Yep, that's our Ellen.

[@Jackspiring]

Is there anything better than Jane's optimism? Yes. Mike's acting. EDIT: I love Jane.

[@Furko08]

"Have you done any work stuff?" "I have played Monster Hunter" I'm pretty envious

[@nashdiy8570]

"I'm saving ammo!" *Shoots rock* Brilliant!

[@timothymclean]

I can't imagine how many people run their horses off riverbanks while reading their cell phones. Distracted riding is a serious issue.

[@jons6834]

For mikes next challenge of the week: pick 5 random games and mike has to explain why it's like dark souls.

[@valtervete]

Jane: No, but work stuff Mike: Oh, I've been playing Monster Hunter How to know you have a good job, I suppose...

[@danleighton8561]

'Remember when I had the hardest challenge ever' says a not bitter Mike.

[@Floobie2956]

Jane trying to hold it together and not laugh while saying something silly is the best Jane.

[@thegirlwiththehoodie]

"Famine has unlimited stamina". Oh, the irony.

[@outsidexbox]

Happy Friday, watchers! Anyone already playing Monster Hunter World? If you'd like to see even more Monster Hunter World gameplay don't miss Luke and Ellen livestreaming it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3m1oGevja6eaZI

[@amezification]

so with monster hunter you could form yourself a SQUAD, and even send NOTIFICATIONS to that squad if you say need help hunting a giant SQUID. perhaps?

[@nashdiy8570]

I am renting this game just to customize my palico. And I've no shame in telling everyone that it's my reason for playing.

[@Fa1con87]

I want to see all the takes of Jane bursting into laughter!

[@nikbol43below]

"Researching" monsters in Monster Hunter the same way Japan "researches" whales in real life?

[@MathiasTillman]

I just found out that "incoherent excitement" is the subtitle of Ellen's soon-to-be released biography, please don't tell anyone, ok? ;)

[@TheTimelady1]

At the mention of cats I waited for Ellen, I was not disappointed in the slightest

[@christopherdempsey3878]

Alice Like for cat Ellen! 😁😁😁

[@Lynx7725]

Oh gods. Jane's reaction when "skid marks" finally clicked. Priceless. Doesn't help that it was Mike saying it -- "Do the monsters drift round corners?" XD

[@slimeylimey772]

I feel like if Mike played Life is Strange, he would say it feels like Dark Souls

[@avathequeen14]

I will say that a healing grenade sounds exactly like something Eggbert the Careless should invest in.

[@respectableaf9061]

Mike: We should all play in co-op Me: This year's christmas challenge is going to be monsterous...

[@Ellemmenno_P]

"Man... I'm sorry chupacabra the you went out like a PUNK"

[@DeckardRed]

The bitter voice from Mike "Remember when I had the worlds most difficult challenge for this."

[@ayanhaider303]

The reason Jane killed the Chupacabre so easily is because she created it, and therefore knew its ultra powerful weak point.

[@MinniMaster]

Urban Dictionary, my dear friend. “A line of fecal matter in your underwear that varies in thickness from thin to meaty.” Thin... to *meaty.*

[@marthvader4824]

Mike sure put his sole into making that shoe.

[@Banquet42]

Boooooo! ;)

[@distantignition]

That thing would leave one hell of a skid mark.

[@5outof10]

Well Mike did say you only got "one shot" and damn did you deliver

[@Skysaber]

"The social space is like the tower in Destiny" is fast becoming the new "the combat is like Dark Souls."

[@macsandsquid528]

Skidmarks mean the same thing in the States as in the UK.

[@jstewart_1]

"... there were some with two hors..." Jane - "That's a cow."

[@daafaev15]

"Ellen: [incoherent excitement]" A Life Story

[@Gorthaur42]

I’m with Mike, all the best clothes are filled with cereal.

[@frodobaggins7710]

I like how you don't leave out the moments where Jane's trying not to laugh as she signs off the episode, they're probably my favourite parts of the show.

[@MultiCabochon]

You know that we truly live in a wonderful world when someone can ask "Have you done any work stuff?" and an acceptable answer is "I've been playing Monster Hunter."

[@Knifetogunfight18]

Jane said get him? *Grabs pitchfork I have been waiting for the call to arms for so long MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@CaptainGulasch]

The funny thing is, the first time I played Dark Souls I thought: "This feels a bit like Monster Hunter"

[@artemisknight8721]

I expect to hear Ellen squealing in joy on other unrelated gaming channels whenever Palicos are mentioned.

[@thatkindofgirl8801]

I got this Problem that I instantly look something up if someone tells me not to. I'm really not good at this whole internet thing.

[@liftedvirus1962]

That Chupacabra put up as much of a fight as Andy did in the first part of the new GTA Heist LOL

[@LimSiege]

Its more accurate to say that Monster Hunter's combat inspired Dark Souls. The first game came out in 2006, three years before Demon's Souls. Its it's popularity in Japan that paved the way to create Dark Souls.

[@loganre]

in fact, Dark Souls was probably seen as a "more accessible" monhunt.

[@LimSiege]

I prefer "Monster Hunter with a good narrative"

[@aardbei54]

That MHW town is basically just Shipwreck Cove from Pirates of the Caribbean. Also, that Chupawhateva picture is nightmare fuel.

[@incitossol]

Mr. Anonymous So who does the OxCrews owe a lot of money to?

[@nickcap7355]

I love that a teamfourstar reference made it into the comments of the week. Senzu Bean!

[@deadzepplin]

At the beginning we had Shoe of the Week... also love Challenge of the Week, guys

[@droosef]

I never realised you could track them via skidmarks... I'll get at least two minutes of laughter out of that one.

[@starhanie]

So, am I to assume the real reason the Outside Xbox crew were asking about merch ideas in the livestream was because Mike's prototype book-light-snack-trainer was all that came out of the brainstorming stage?

[@mortenu.5606]

I vote for Jane's fight against the Chupacabra to be crowned most anticlimatic fight 2018

[@GhengisJohn]

Surely the Playstation shoe will be remembered as the high point of our civilization.

[@DarylVanHumbeck]

I live my life here on KZbin completely free from regrets by pressing the Like button as soon as the video starts playing. That way I can't forget to press it afterwards.

[@l0stndamned]

"Screw you comedy chicken!" Not something I was expecting to hear today, and I was expecting to hear some stage stuff. I would have loved to have seen Jane's plan in the game.

[@rrrob19]

Hook and Jurassic Park? I have a feeling Steven Spielberg was on the phone with his lawyer when MHW came out.

[@captainzac24]

Ten minutes in there's a loud clunk as the penny finally drops and I realise the sofa is closer to the camera than normal, my thin and tenuous grasp on reality that was only held in place by frequent doses of show of the week is now shattered and I finally slip into madness accompanied by the inanimate objects Luke made friends with last Christmas.

[@callummellis3280]

Listen to Mike..." A Pair" He's been in the shoe game 5 minutes and he already knows the lingo

[@AvinashSreemadhav]

Jane: "I'm saving my ammo" Shoots a rock

[@oldspice051]

How I explain Monster Hunter to my friends: "It's like Dark Souls, but cheerful. And you get to make weapons and armor out of all the monsters you kill." Them: "Pfft, I can get weapons and armor from all the bosses on Dark Souls." Me: "You also get a pet cat that helps you fight." Them:"....Can I try it?"

[@exquisitecorpse4917]

Dark Souls fangirl though I am: It's more correct to say that Dark Souls is like Monster Hunter than the other way 'round....MH is an older series that was doing the dodge-roll into slow animation dance seven years before the fire was linked.

[@oldspice051]

Good point!

[@alanjhonson2298]

Mulder and Scully versus athletes foot, that cracked me up 😂

[@patrikhjorth3291]

I'm _so_ glad that the Chupacabra challenge didn't involve anyone actually having to suck a goat.

[@drewsmotherinlaw7365]

The Dodo went extinct because it was a rather friendly bird that didn’t quite understand that humans were killing them for food, and would continue to approach humans until they were no more.

[@extonjonas6820]

dodo's were genius's

[@futoijosei]

The moa would have been a good example though.

[@holshr8291]

Red-dead redemption was Andy's gane right? And now that's finished a new game is needed to playthrough, so a Jane or a Mike game next right? I personally would love to see an Oxbox dark souls with Mike gleefully rolling his way to victory as Andy and Jane complain in the background.

[@ProtagonistVon]

I agree.

[@lnt305]

That one job where you are asked to focus on your job, so you continue to talk about what you've been playing.

[@trevorprescott2908]

When I think of skid marks, I think of Mike. I imagine he makes a lot of them. With all those cars he drives, I mean.

[@legocorvo]

I like how Jane had to clarify that Andy meant challenge of the week. Like Andy has asked her to fight El Chupacabra before. What the hell is IN that office?

[@RevanAlaire]

Will we ever see a Jane with hair across her right shoulder, a beardless Andy and a stealthy Mike?

[@mrr4067]

RevanAlaire no, especially not the lasts one

[@williamw2529]

keg504 well that's the easiest way to shave that beard...and head...and ...

[@interregnum_]

I imagine we'll get right-shoulder Jane around the same time we get left-shoulder Ellen.

[@KevinKnowles]

That's the mirror universe....

[@Spence1115]

"You're gonna spend a lot of time inspecting skidmarks" I laughed, I couldn't help it...

[@demmelons5324]

I gave this video a like just for the intro skit. That was fantastic!

[@alptigin5438]

Worth noting, Jane, but Ratchet & Clank has a recurring character who is an extreme space surfing champion named Skid McMarx. Not out of character for the R&C naming team, given the sequel titles.

[@CucumberSadness]

I swear Mike is just out of dishware and is trying to improvise. Tips: Wellington Boots are amazing food vessels, especially for soup. Rubber gloves are also great, and for an on the go you, try wearIng your hooded jacket backwards, the hood is great for cereal.

[@GalacticGamble]

Mike has been busy taping shoes to books and monster hunting all week, sounds like a typical week!

[@timothymclean]

Has he found a way to combine the two? Say, selling fancy footwear to monsters? It's an open market-look at how often they stub their toes! ...No, wait, sorry, that's _stab._ Hunters _stab_ their toes.

[@GalacticGamble]

Timothy McLean, steel toe boots will help them prevent the stabbing, Mike will be hated by all the other monster hunters because now they can't stab the monster toes, but it is an untapped market!

[@Rognik]

I have heard skid-marks used in terms of tires leaving marks on the highway, but I think it's more common to use that, uh, other meaning.

[@noahfranke467]

we also use it in the "other meaning" here in Germany more commonly

[@liferunner1231]

Jane's laughter made me click the like button.

[@TheGr1IsHere]

Whenever they say, "it's fine, it's fine" all I can think of is Helen Mirren's character from Red, where she is approaching the secret service agent to knock him out.

[@JStryker47]

Impressed as I am with Jane's marksmanship, I sort of expected the goat sucker to be a bit bigger and maybe put up more of a fight. Like the Jersey Devil and Bloody Mary, in The Wolf Among Us.

[@star-dust2497]

You guys should do a Show of The Month with the guys of Outside Xtra, reviewing all the best things of the month, of both channels

[@krtimp]

IncoherentExcitement should be Ellen’s new Xbox gamer tag. Or at the very least her motto.

[@kamen.rider.decade]

Monster Hunter Zoology + Tomb Raider Archaeology = BEST SCIENCE EVER

[@axletensa8051]

Make every animal extinct and every historical location destroyed....for science ^^

[@vanishingblue2839]

So typical of Jane to leave a friend alone after a mental breakdown. No time to wipe tears when you have a world to conquer.

[@Steve-YT383]

You guys should talk to Eurogamer about the Legendary Creatures they have found in PUBG: Buttercorns, Tributtertops, Sausage Planker, and The Snake.

[@oreotink3979]

By far my favorite KZbin channel

[@pillinjer]

I have a complaint about my Outside Xbox Tshirt that Mike sold me: the cereal pours out of the bottom and it doesn’t hold any of the “premium content” milk I paid extra for...

[@uncannymeerkat]

Anyone else love that Mike called his pailco Tiddles?

[@GhengisJohn]

Wasn't that the cat that single-handedly wiped out a species of flightless birds?

[@danieljamesbudd]

I can’t believe red dead is almost 8 years old. Still looks beautiful

[@samgonzalez8662]

I’m actually a little disappointed Luke never came in and ranted about dinosaurs

[@d0natr0n47]

3 guesses as to what Show of the Weekend is gonna be about.....

[@d0natr0n47]

+Sableagle 1) It released as you typed that, like, within seconds - don't you feel silly? :P 2) I stand by my prediction, should've put a bet on :D

[@sethneville]

Incoherent Excitement has to be Ellen's gamer handle from here on out.

[@unhandyprawn1]

I'll take two left shoes Mike, everyone at the Just Dance party I went to the other day said that would suit me! Wait...

[@HarveyJackOlden]

I disobeyed your warning in relation to skid marks, I will never doubt your wisdom again, apologies

[@johnmacdonald812]

"Jurrasic Park, but you can punch everything in the face?" Isn't that just Ark: Survival Evolved?

[@nrxia]

American here. "Skid marks" is probably a pretty universal term among English speakers. It ain't hard to figure out that meaning.

[@ivorydeluxe1672]

Hahaha jaaanneee we're not going to get Mike... .. *control chip activated* .. Hey everyone get mike!

[@Paladin585]

Legends of the unicorn are actually believed to be linked to an African animal with a pair of horns so parallel that they look like one in profile.

[@domlocke3845]

"No need for lunch with the new OutsideXbox hat!" "Is it full of cereal?" "It... it is full of cereal..." I'll take 12.

[@KPnutz1995]

Jane was right, pressing the like button did make my life regret free! I can do anything!! Screw the consequences! A life of crime for me!

[@amezification]

plot twist, everything is now full of cereal...everything.

[@coyoteartist]

Tiddles!!!!!!!!!!! Ohhhhh I'm dying of squee here!

[@massoire]

I like how Mike's zip coordinates perfectly with his fly

[@jacobpieters4500]

Matthew Massey ...?

[@leafandryly]

Hats and shoes full of cereal and with books taped to them, I never knew I needed this until now.

[@PankajYadav-zx8zf]

the only regret I have is googling "skid marks".

[@keaganche144]

That chicken monster is one of the reasons why I won't ever play this or shadow of the colossus.... I couldn't live with myself if I killed them

[@thecastawaydc]

Jane Douglas killed me, but I got better

[@notoriousbmc1]

Monster Hunter is like Jurassic Park if the ''good guys'' were the ones going to the island to exploit/kill the dinosaurs for profit. ie: everyone that was killed on said island.

[@luketsimmons1982]

Wow most convincing reason to press the LIKE button so far... so many regrets in life, why add another... thanks Jane! 👍🏼

[@Karan-Aujla]

"Work stuff." "I've been playing monster Hunter"

[@aardbei54]

Karan Aujla It's tough seeing other people living your dreams.

[@Karan-Aujla]

Mr. Anonymous I know man I know some men just have all the fun😭😂
