[Disco110]

What?! How dare you insinuate that the great Brian Blessed is trying to imitate Ian McKellen.

I bite mine thumb at ye, sirs.

damn strait, these stupid americans not knowing who Brian Blessed is, tis disgraceful! you turkish pigs! he sounds nothin like Ian McKellen

hehe Haduken!

 

[LimeJester]

I thought the best line had to be the mother joke at the beginning. Done well, they never get old.

 

[johnman]

I cnat decide if the voiceover reminds me of Ian mackellan or Patrick Steward

 

[I am AFK]

this was funny no dout about it but I have never herd of that game

 

[thisisyournamenow]

ITS fucking Brian Blessed, next time don't fuck it up

damn strait, these stupid americans not knowing who Brian Blessed is

We're Canadian, and we know who he is, we just chose not to make that joke.
Clearly it would have been the obvious joke, since everyone is shitting themselves over it.

great job guys

Can I assume you have a stop watch that can stop time?

Anyway I really enjoyed this game, one of the few that had decent large scale battles. Think Dynasty Warriors but better, for one up to four enemies alone could kill you so it was more realistic! These graphic novel cut scenes are good enough but giving the subject matter (large scale Norse mythology battles) there could have been some truly epic cinematics on display!

"So what your saying is before this, all vikings were peaceful and not remotely war like?" Good point haha!

I might have to check it out then, since I am a fan of Koei's overly repetitive flogging of the franchise.

And this was funny, not hilarious but I'm tired so perhaps the flaw is myself rather than the video.

That's the thing though, most of the time you're actually doing missions around islands, infiltrating fortresses and slowly regaining control of each island. Each island has a couple of giant fortresses that when besieged make up the VERY large scale battles, being the obvious highlight.

Hmmm, I was rather fond of the DW games that had the fortress aspect that you had to overcome so this just intrigues me more. However, I might be posting a thread about fixing game series.

Basically when you start to a battle you have to seek and destroy enemy shamans, warlords or giants to advance to the next phase of battle like scaling walls, breaking through gates or storming the courtyard etc. The only connection to DW is theres a lot of enemies really.

Yeah, I may be one of these stupid Americans mentioned above. But at least I have enough of a grasp on the language of English to realize that this person has spelled straight wrong.

I had to go look up Brian Blessed. And realized that he's from one of my favorite shows, Black Adder; I just didn't know his name.

Plus, I hate how I'm always lumped in with the entirety of my country as being stupid for not knowing much of pop culture outside of my country. Hell, I don't even have a telly and am completely lost as to my own country's pop culture. But at least I try to find out when I don't know something. I don't just blow you up because I don't get your ways.

Brian Blessed is serious business. I don't think anywhere near as many people would have minded if you'd made a joke at Ian McKellen's expense.

Oh, and if you do apologise to Brian, do it from a distance. I dread to think of the damage his voice could do up front.

 

[Snekcid_Eillib]

It sounds a lot like Brian Blessed... XD

 

[volen]

IM BRIAN BLESSED HEHEHE

 

[BehattedWanderer]

'Hadouken!'

That totally caught me off guard. Was not expecting that at all, and I laughed quite a bit.

Well Done, guys, well done.

 

[Tron900]

The One....The ONLY.....Brian Blessed!!

 

[gRiM_rEaPeRsco]

Do people honestly laugh at these videos?

 

[yellag]

you can't mock a game with Brian Blessed narrating it

You can mock a game with Brian Blessed narrating it, you just can't mock Brian Blessed!

Touche...

 

[Oktanas]

not the best episode

 

[Anchupom]

Ah the old hadouken joke...

But still no "and that was the [insert relevant number]th time I died"? D:

Ah well, epic however.

 

[remmus]

quite a nice game, I suggest a rental for those who like the run around in 3rd person and command units around you hack and slash.

Also when will Americans stop portraying Hel as a realm of evil? all Hel is is the death realm for those who didn´t die in combat, so stop trying to connected it with the Christian Hell

 

[arcstone]

I've always wondered why Tor gets his name spelled with an H in english. :/

 

[Apone]

You know what? If I ever meet Brian Blessed, I'll apologize to him, all right?

Sorry, forgot to say how awesome this episode was. And that not being from England you might not instantly know who BB was.

He's like a mad funny uncle to everyone over here. You all know him, and he makes you laugh and slightly uncomfortable at the same time.
