Let's Drown Out... Oregon Trail

[@christiancorocora7921]

"I desesperately want Yahtzee to wind up with a child. I would love that to death. Turn him into a loving parent" Well Gabe, you got your wish

[@Pikkabuu]

Now we need them to do more Let's Drown Outs so that Gabe could laugh at Yahtzee the whole bit.

[@seanbirch9663]

It was at this point of the video that I scrolled down to the comments to see this comment commented :D

"Another fucking river!" Ohh Gabe, this is the American Midwest. We have more rivers here than we have marketable jobs.

[@hoagielamp6543]

[@hanniballahr94]

8.5 years later and the I'm still wondering what Yahtzee's answer to my question is (Gabe answered and then Yahtzee got distracted by the introduction to HoMaster).

"Nothing for us in Californ-ie!" And now he lives there. XD

[@kicks7587]

Singing the A-team to get across the river was priceless and awesome!

[@antonyduhamel1166]

It took me 5 minutes to stop laughing when Yahtzee claimed to love the song "Run For Your Lives" and proceeded to start singing "Run to the Hills" by Iron Maiden.

[@codi4505]

I knew something was off about that

[@chipper_dude]

I had a great grandmother that came to America with her parents from Ireland during the Irish Famine of 1879. She traveled to Texas in a covered wagon in the. They had a piano in the wagon and she would play when she got bored, one time some Indians came riding up to the wagon curious what the noise was. Being from Ireland her family thought they were going to be attacked, but all the wanted was to see what was making the music. So after seeing the piano and playing with it for a bit they peacefully rode off. I always found that to be a really cool story.

[@angusseydel9733]

I just realized this is the first appearance of Homaster

[@krisrulz95]

The start of a gripping saga

[@jjuxley9094]

[@Chocl8215]

[@nottherealpaulsmith]

misread homaster as homestar I was incredibly confused for a second

[@PostNukeProductions]

Yahtzee and Gabe confirmed luckiest human beings on the planet.

[@PostNukeProductions]

OptimusSledge Right, because the game randomly screwing you over with no warning is totally a matter of low intelligence.

[@OptimusSledge]

***** You believe whatever you need to. Which is the American way, really.

[@PostNukeProductions]

OptimusSledge Okay then, if you're so great, many variants of this game are free. Play some and see how well you do. Also, why do you assume that I'm American? Maybe I've just heard of the game over the internet, since it was only in schools from the 1980's-the late 90's.

[@OptimusSledge]

***** I never said you were American. Although with the level of reading comprehension you're displaying here, I have no trouble believing you've at least been through their education system.

[@531chaz]

OptimusSledge Well since I went through it, most kids had no idea on how to play this game so of course we died. The unluckiest kids had amazon trail to play which who kill you for no reason at all since you only had one dude and a talking magical tiger.

[@jacob4189]

This episode is pure gold. So many great moments.

[@twofacetoo75]

Gabe screaming 'WU TANG!' at 8:13 is my sexuality

[@radicalhonesty8244]

Yahtzee : Well Gabriella we have made it to Oregon Gabriella : Yes we have husband it is lovely Yahtzee : Now lets take our clothes off and start our heathen commune Gabriella : Seriously ? we have been here for less than five minutes Gabriella has died of backtalk Yahtzee : That'll teach you woman

When Gabe made the Skeksis caw, I *know* Yahtzee turned his head to look at him, and he was thinking "how, and why, the hell did you make *that* sound".

[@MechaEmperor7000]

6 years later, Yahtzee is having a child. And it did indeed change him into a loving parent.

[@Terezar]

Walking is literally the first sentence in the instructions, and somehow he misses it EVERY TIME.

As someone who has had to live on field rations when hurricane Irene and Sandy hit us in 2011 and 2012 respectively, 2 pounds of rations a day sounds like rather a lot to be considered meager. However, they are travelling while I was in a storm bunker while the hurricane levelled the house I had be living in but it was a rental and I had moved all my stuff to safety so I didn't feel too bad about it. Great video as always and your humor is dryer than the Sahara, don't ever change.

[@CuriousKey]

Gotta say, this series has been one of my favourite lets-play-themed things on youtube. You break all the "rules" of producing good video content, which is I think one of the things I like about it, because the fact that everyone does the same stupid stuff like asking people to like and sbscribe, having irritating intro music etc, gets really really tiring for me. You two are refreshing because of the good discussion, and because you do things however the hell you like.

[@OdaSwifteye]

I think the key to it's success is that it's simple and not for profit. They just want to talk, play games, and entertain. The problem with a lot of channels is that they make it their livelihood and they then have to hustle like clowns and they don't offer great content to match.

[@Franku_4]

Exactly. Besides this channel I like Totalbiscuit and Lord Karnage from Classic Game Room because they are genuine, take their time, and actually grown-ass people.

[@CuriousKey]

You make a good point Oda, of the professional channels I watch, I tend to prefer the ones that are least "professional" in their conduct, because the content feels alot more natural, and you tend to get more interesting videos. I'm a Total Biscuit watcher as well, as it happens, fer, and yes, he produces professional content, but doesn't try to hard-sell at you, which is refreshing.

For those wondering: a 3ft deep river is actually a deceptively deadly proposition. With a river, even if the surface looks completely calm, there could be a seriously strong current hidden just below that would absolutely pull you under and drag you away. They're lucky they only lost an ox.

[@TheIrishsheep123]

This is the funniest Let's Drown Out... Really good guys!

[@TheKeller101]

I looked down in the comments to see when Yahtzee figured out the walking controls only to be met with laughable disappointment

[@OptimusSledge]

Anyone else think Yahtzee's "girlfriend" is actually Gabe, and they're just trying to break the news a bit at a time rather than in one big reveal? Couple of weeks time we find out that "she" was born male, then later we're told "she" is pre-op, then they drop the pretense and admit it's a man, then finally just tell us that Gabe and Yahtzee have been making the beast with four balls for the last three years.

[@strangevision99]

Thats no big secret or surprise though. I think he actually has a girlfriend, thats much more shocking!

[@MagpieDynamics]

The horror, the horror...

The beast with four balls? JOSUKE HIGASHIKATA?

[@souleater12343]

"Yahtzee's a terrible friend, and I'm a fucking shut in." My new favourite quote.

[@nuvvythethird1950]

this

[@Quiltfish]

Nate Woods Wasting Love definitely qualifies as a power ballad to me, for one.

[@JoshuaKenori]

Yahtzee affecting a HORRIBLE southern accent is the best thing I've seen today.

[@MrClickity]

Not that anyone is likely to care but The Dalles is pronounced "The dolls." Also, it's not so much that the game's tricky, more that it's mostly luck-based. I've had rations on filling and pace on steady and still had my party drop like flies. I've also had every single river crossing fuck up.

[@emilynelson4747]

Not quite. Its a long A sound. "The dolls" is probably correct to the French it comes from, but not how locals pronounce it.

[@OmniZeroFive]

It's not that the game is particularly difficult, it's that the results are based on randomness alone. You could start again with the best setup and die in less than a month. Secondly, as a kid, what was hard about this game was trying to beat it after getting the computer assignment done and before the computer time was over. Saving was not an option back then unfortunately. Living in Oregon, every computer at every school had a version of Oregon Trail on it for a very long period of time. This game was great because it was what kids got to play at school since it was labeled educational, not because it was the best game.

Ah, you know what's funny. My sister is called Gabriella, I'm Gabriel, and my nickname is "Gabo". I will now call myself "The Gabernaut" in online multiplayer games.

I played this as the Batfamily. I just bought the bare minimum in everything but no food and maximum ammunition. I was able to get to Oregon, only Batman alive and barely, guns all over the place, more food than he can hope to eat, probably half insane. So it was the naked adventures of insane naked Batman with dead bodies strapped to the top of his wagon and laughing maniacally and his sidekick, the one oxen left alive.

especially with how often they just stay on the instruction screen for several seconds.

[@LynceusGlaciermaw]

Yeah, I wasn't surprised to hear Yahtzee's reaction to someone approaching him. It's understandable. If I was ever in the Mana Bar and saw him, I'd probably just say hello at the most and otherwise leave him alone. This video was amusing for me in particular, because not only did I play this game in school, but I actually live in Oregon, and basically at the place where the trail ends.
