Yahtzee perfectly displays the Dunning-Kruger effect by showing how he overestimates his understanding of the Dunning-Kruger Effect while apparently knowing very little about it. It's Dunning-Kruger-ception.

After reading up on the Dunning-Kruger effect it seems to me that Yahtzee embodies it more than Gabriel does, especially after Yahtzee took controls from Gabe so it would "spare us from yelling at our screens" and proceeded to fail. Horribly.

Zero_Burn Yahtzee's just a tease. I'm the same way, and my friends and family have reached the point where they'll back-and-forth with me over absolutely nothing. Yahtzee pokes fun at Gabe, Gabe responds like a reasonable person/plays the straight man, and fun and silliness is had. 'Course, you lot probably know this, because you're here an' all.

Zero_Burn The part i like is by saying Gabe is the Dunning-Kruger effect he is making himself the Dunning-Kruger effect about the Dunning-Kruger effect. I'd suspect he did it on purpose but i don't think Yahtzee is that good an actor.

14:15 Glorious, uses a term he does not understand on Gabe, Gabe calls him on it, yahtzee retreats. (FYI) Dunning-Kruger is the inability to perceive you could be wrong and the belief if you fail it always not your fault, so it had nothing to do with Gabe not realizing how to go up the stairs.

You can really tell that at some point their friendly banter, which can be observed in earlier videos, turned to hostile snipes and pissy defensiveness. I wonder if something happened that spurred this on or if it was just two mis-matched people that gradually got more and more sick of each other. In any case, Let's drown out in general and Ego review in particular are my top two podcast-type series on the net, there was some kind of magic there (even if it started to fade away near the end of the series).

I'm surprised Yahtzee didn't mention the ultimate challenge of completing the bonus heist with the cream suit, which is probably one of the biggest dick moves I've ever seen in any game. Other than that, this is a good game, and I always thought that the upgrades were quite well-balanced in such a way that it becomes apparent that effort was put in to making them just challenging enough to attain without being unreasonably frustrating. Some folks might disagree with this, but I actually feel like _Art of Theft_ might be Yahtzee's magnum opus, as he was just reaching the point where he knew enough about making games to put together something well designed and balanced.

I want to see a combined sequel to Trilby: The Art of Theft and the Chzo Mythos games as a mod for Deus Ex, or perhaps a Deus Ex-lie game for Game Maker. The Company would still want vengeance against Trilby, so what if they got their vengeance by dabbling in the occult? Trilby would have to go against the Company, the Order of the Blessed Agonies, and John DeFoe's wraith. I could see the Company acting as the equivalent of Majestic 12 from Deus Ex, and the Order would act as the equivalent of the Cabal from Blood. My ideal title for the hypothetical sequel is Chzo Irritated, but there may be better.

You either give a character plenty of story and personality so you become invested in them, or you give them nothing but the most brief flickers of something so people are intruiged and want to know more. For example ; The reason people love Garrett in the early thief games is because he had a charming wit to his personality, whilst on the other hand, people l are interested in G-man from Half Life 1 & 2 because we know nothing about him, and yet he's so prominent and seemingly important to the story and world around us.

I'd actually like to support younger you's choices concerning the wire cutting. Unregulated randomness in game mechanics is bad, but a little bit a randomness used appropriately is quite useful. In this case, having which wire is the alarm be random is great since it creates an option (given that there are multiple ways around most obstacles, particularly those that involve wires): do you rely on skill to avoid the cameras/lasers/etc., or take your chances and rely on luck to turn them off? However, it's a particularly good idea to have the wires be randomized only at the start of a new game, and not changing afterwards. I wouldn't like being able to just look up which wire to cut in a guide before ever even playing the game, but it's certainly fun to act the masterful cat burglar after you've discovered which wire is right. I'll allow that perhaps a more skill-focused mini-game like those "hacking" mini-games that appear in a lot of RPG element games might have been a better option since it does put pass-or-fail entirely in the player's hand, but I think that the first point alone (the one about using skill or luck) is solid enough that, at the very least, younger Yahtzee shouldn't feel ashamed for making that particular design choice.

Question for Yahtzee (but more importantly Gabe): Do you know what the idiom "touch wood" means? Does it exist in the Australian vernacular? Are there any Australia-specific idioms? Cheers.

It's tapping on a wooden object for good luck. By doing so, you're asking the fae (wood sprites) for their help in ensuring something goes well.

Three years late but whatever. You can get software to bind controller buttons to keyboard inputs. I use KeySticks. I did that to get through this game and Poacher.

Biggus Dickus iv played about 240 hours in 1 and 128ish in 2. system wise and graphics wise 2 is better. 1 had better story and level design but 2 is better mechanically IMO.

Another AoT? I would pay money for it. It totally holds up today (minus a few bits here and there). I played it quite a lot, unlocked everything (including the awesome secret ending for the ultimate challenge with lazy summer ). Not sure about procedural generation can be pulled off with stealth though, I've been fiddling with this thought for a while now. About luck in game design, we did learn much about it in later years. We went through the phase "luck in games is bad", then came FTL and suggested a little bit of coin tosses here and there can make the game interesting. The details are still fuzzy though. Definitely doesn't work in AoT wire puzzle but it works in consuming shadows, for example.

I never played this game, but, interestingly enough, I did play an indie brawler that included characters from other indie games, in which Trilby was included. This was long before I knew of Yahtzee, but the character of Trilby was clearly based off of this game. Very n******** for me too.
