Unskippable: Dragon's Dogma

[Reptiloid]

This looks like the kind of game that would be better without any human characters at all.

 

[JesterRaiin]

The amazing adventures of Default Guy

Well, for once it would be nice to play as really default, normal man, that doesn't have to learn everything from the scratch. :]

I made my character in this game a transvestite, a very, very manly looking transvestite.

It made all the cutscenes in the game hilarious.

...hey, you know, I think that Henri dude is knocking us gamers. Let's send him a fax of a pizza!

So what happens when Average Girl joins the fray?

 

[CD-R]

Best Let's Play I've seen of this video game and DAT INTRO!!

It's ok. Not as epic as the adventures of Neander Duck though.

I'll give those prophets credit, they're an improvement over the norm. Generally the hero first finds his hometown torched, goes on a quest to find vengeance and then hears that the villain was already prophecised. At least these prophets tried to be a little more pro-active and warn the authorities ahead of time to assemble an army. Too bad they still cut it a little bit too close. Next time, you don't want to start when the dragon's prophecised arival is so nigh you don't have the chance to finish recruiting.

Time Lords can also regenerate, so once you pluck out their hearts, you can wait a couple minutes and get some more.

Wow, Default Man had a very short career.

Also just a heads up, but you need to watch your audio guys. there were parts of this where I could barely hear you. Of course it could've been my shitty sound system.

Nah, I had to crank it.

 

[Quaidis]

Damn you guys, now I really want to play this game.

Well...

Spoiler

If you work it right, Average Girl gets to kick Default Man's butt, and Default Man doesn't really seem to mind.

...but, Balrogs have wings, surely they can fly.

If not, they could glide like the Gargoyles.

However, I seem to remember him saying "and that was the tenth time I died" in the Darkness 2 video. So this should be 11th...

If you want to get super-technical, they doubled up another one (eighth, I think), so in total, there have been twelve protagonist cutscene deaths since the series began.

Still the single best running gag in their repertoire.

 

[YodaUnleashed]

Huh as soon as I saw this cutscene I thought to myself "this is something Unskippable would royally take the piss out of", seems I was right.

 

[ClockworkPenguin]

If the dragon was patient a time lord could make for a whole meal and not just a snack.

All you have to do is rip out one heart, wait for the time lord to regenerate and then eat another heart. This way a dragon could eat a whole 14 hearts! take that link!

Time Lords, a dragon's chocolate box.

I always wondered why we don't see any other survivors of the time war, given how often the daleks come back. Damn dragons

But DS9 goes to the Gamma Quadrant. The Delta Quadrant is pretty much wild space.

Delta was where Voyger went to. Half of it's Borg space so I wouldn't quite call it wild.

 

[BernardoOne]

He will average them to death . He is, Default Man!

One of the best episodes

I actually know the answer to this, but I get the feeling (as there's no list anywhere via a Google search) that if anyone does post the current list that the joke will be forever broken for most people...
