[@kaidenlewis8900]

I looked up a walkthrough to see where the last piece was and it is not behind that one door. In fact, that locked door is what the sundial puzzle opens... because video game logic. Unlike the other pieces the last one isn't inside a room which is kind of counter-intuitive. It's hidden behind some random gravestone somewhere in this large area. Really can't blame them for not finding it.

@@Archgeek0super off topic but “dollars to donuts” is one of those phrases that has aged out of relevance. Since the premise is you’ll wager a full dollar against a single donut, from a time donuts cost pennies. Donuts are now effectively a dollar at, say, Dunkin Donuts. $0.99 for one, $0.83~ per for a dozen. Give it twenty years of inflation at the average rate of the past 100 years and it’ll start implying the opposite cost balance as it originally did. Like “blood is thicker than water” means the opposite because of a social increase in the euphemism “blood relations.” It was originally “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb,” or “the family you chose is more important than the family you were born to.”

3:25 “you’re ending your sentences with prepositional phrases. you better stop ending your sentences with prepositional phrases.” “or what?” “or i’ll make it look like you *killed me*.”

I'm actually surprised Arin hasn't watched much of Buffy, I feel like the campy humour is right up his alley. Lots of non-cg monsters and funny moments, definitely worth a watch if you want a good taste of that late 90s-early 2000s nostalgia from a show. It's not the best show, but it's definitely an entertaining watch.

Finish this game! That’s all i ask for Christmas!

[@JustaMomnFamily]

Usually I hate when ppl talk over game talk. But 1. I don't mind when y'all have closed captioning on. However, this is game grumps and their game talk is WAAAAAAAY BETTER THAN ANY GAME. I could not stop laughing

[@ohjeezriles]

BUFFY?!?! Oh, fuck yeah. You guys should collaborate with Matt McMuscles

[@Fueledbystardust]

1:18 And then he later voiced a villain in Dragon Ball Super

The Game Grumps playing Buffy? Day. Made.

[@elsiebartlett6808]

Played this a lot with my sister growing up as we were huge fans of the show. All of the random shit is just references to episodes like the ventriloquist dummy that was alive. Not a great game, but not terrible. The hit boxes could be pretty wonky, and repetitive combat but we loved it anyway. I’d say it’s probably just for fans, but was fun back when it came out and the show was running still I think. Bringing back the memories grumps, thanks for some unexpected nostalgia today!

The first 3D game was on Xbox. It's like this but way more refined and better designed. It ran on a different engine which was a lot more powerful than this one. Like the Xbox game is actually a hidden gem.

I'd love to see more of this game. I get the feeling it will have some good shenanigans in it.

[@isaiahlem]

Apparently Lumpy Space Princess was voiced by Sarah Michelle Gellar. Learn something new every day.

[@mediabreakdown8963]

Wait a minute…hitting enemies until they fall down, and then finishing them with a stab? Prince of Persia: Sands of Time?

[@BadPrenup]

It's more or less exactly the type of fighting done in the show

[@Darkblue4269]

James Marsden also voiced Zamasu in Dragonball Super - he redeemed himself.

[@Sinsults]

I mean, it looks like a fairly okay game. It’s almost like any game feels bad if you don’t pay attention to any tutorials and ignore half the story.

[@StephenCinAZ]

One door out of all of them that says, "There must be some *other* way to open it," and of course the guys ignore that entirely.

[@richardbourn5896]

I knew that Arin would be completely unable to figure out anything in this game because it doesn't baby you or really do anything to make what you're supposed to do obvious. It's honestly rather bad game design because it's not remotely clear and you need to be thorough and try everything and remember what you just did, which Arin won't do. Chaos Bleeds was a really fun game for its time and for me as a Buffy fan when it was airing.

[@checkaga]

Oh my god you guys! there's a fricken tomb in the first area you can jump on to get above one of the mausoleums and i think there's a lever behind one grave in the second area to open another mausoleum. ALSO the joke you were making about the zombies being people's loved ones actually becomes relevant once you open the church as Buffy's mum is buried in that graveyard!
