Once you stop being angry and just accept that you made a mistake or lacked understanding, the games become absurdly fun.

"Dark Souls III is the longest and has two DLCs", but DSII is way longer and has three DLCs.
Shhh
only longer because it's more difficult. also the fume knight is a royal pain in the butt.
@@harrisonbrown9973 As someone that struggled at basically every boss in dark souls 3 and basically no boss in dark souls 2 I can tell you that 2 is in fact the bigger game.
DS2 was really heavy handed with bosses. I think there's like 40 in total. That's why DS2 is the only game in the series where I ignore and run past most mobs. If you treat it like a gigantic boss rush, it significantly cuts your play time and you'll still get plenty of souls for that stupid Soul Memory mechanic that ruined PvP
@@harrisonbrown9973 Nah DS2 has more content it’s bloated with areas and bosses and has 3 DLCs the game is like a chore to go through

I discovered your channel just a few days ago and man am I hooked. Funny writing, good dynamic editing and constant shenanigans make this a good channel. What really sets it apart is the chemistry and love I can feel in your couple, it literally warms my little heart. What you're doing showing people about enjoying hobbies together and backseat gaming is dope, I hope it makes more people realise they can share things like this with their loved ones!

"Consults 16 open tabs of Fextralife"
I felt that
Let's be honest though, if you don't have to consult Fextralife then it's not worth playing.
I use it mainly for weapons page to help make builds.
Its honestly part of the experience, not doing it makes the game feel empty.
Totally agree, i still have multiple tabs open for weapons from dark souls 3 even though i havent played recently
Big oof...this whole video is so scathing for being made by someone who doesn't play these games
I absolutely lost it at that The Boy's clip! Such an apt representation of what its like to play a From Software game for the first time xD.
Matt and Shelby, I never cease to be amazed at how perfectly these videos are put together. The comedic timing, the script, the memes and references... SO GOOD. Makes me so happy! :)

Matt's ability to always come up with right meme to reflect what he wants to say never stops to amaze me
How does he remember all this? Or is there some sort of meme website he surfs.
Yes
I think it has something to do with Matt being a creative writer (as mentioned in his old videos) that's why his comedic placement is absurd
2:27 hey I love the subtlety and proactive requirement for having the story of blood-borne be mainly behind the item descriptions NPC convos and boss dialogue
The best part of this was when you dropped funky’s theme from DK country
Ignoring the “it’s 3am, I’m naked” text is the kind of story told at gamers anonymous 😂

That Spider-Man reference tho. Sometimes I wonder if you have a neatly keyword-managed meme library or something cuz I can't imagine how you find those.
I wonder the same thing with every video.
exactly, he has a ton of meme that relevant for any situation,
I can't even remember what scene it is when harry said that line in spiderman,
but boy the meme hit hard

SAME!

Honestly, I'm glad that Shelby's appreciation of video games has grown over the years. It's nice to see someone grow to love the medium that we're all weirdly obsessed with.
honestly any and everything needs to grow and change over time. "i prefer the old format" is such a repeated statement for EVERY STREAMER AND UA-cam CHANNEL OUT THERE that its a cliche highlighting the repetitive idiocy of ignorance.
Yep. Shelby's charecter arc is one of the most fascinating ones I've followed.😂
I need a full version of "I miss the old GR."
Just stumbled upon your channel, I had a good laugh. Very fun and entertaining content, good on ya.
"...a gamer who complains about video games."
So just a normal gamer then?
I resent that. I also get defensive about them.
I love the gamer community it's so toxic
Lol accurate.
I hate the gamer comunity so much
I hate these games!
But don't you dare hate the games I like! Then I will hate you. And secretely the game, too.
Wow you wrote down everything I thought about this series and then got Shelby to say it out loud, I thought I couldn't love you guys any more than I did
I LOVE that you're branching out and doing more than the same old thing over and over again. You keep doing you, Shelby.

@@seveneyes77 Forreal, I've watched almost every video and it seems like basically the same crap they've been doing since day one so I don't know why people have an issue with it now
Something changed?
Either I'm blind or people just want something to complain about
"It's 3am. I'm naked." 😂😂😂
Knowing how I would respond to a text like that is how I know I'm not a real gamer...but I feel a little ashamed of that, so I guess I'm in some kind of limbo between worlds--neither gamer nor non-gamer.
@@phasmata3813 Well to be fair,in a situation like that,it isn't about "who's a real gamer"it comes down to who isn't a rip roaring idiot.Ive been married for 19 years and with her for 21.She always gives me time for my hobby and I love her for it because to quote her"At least it's not crack.".But for a guy like me,if my wife comes out to the living room naked,that's all the hint I need to turn it off and do the damn thing because I can.Because booty will always trump games every damn time.

You humor in editing is quick and on point. I rarely laugh out loud but I find myself doing so numerous times each episode.
I see that Matt has Shark Tale in his top five games of all time. Legendary.
Who doesn’t?
You know a gamer is seriously taking it personally when he ignores the “I’m naked” text from his girl
Is Demon's Souls the best entry in the Soulborne series? No. But there is a reason it started a genre
I haven't played the remake. But BP Satsuki made me completely livid the first time I played DeS.
Having once been the nudist at the other end it certainly is a weird feeling being ignored in favor of the f*cking "Nameless King". Alright, sure, i respect your decision but if you dare complain about not getting enough sleep or being horny the day after i'll seriously toss you out the window!

I can almost Guarantee that all of those comments saying “I miss the old girlfriend reviews” were from the last of us 2 video. Because nothing brings out the worst in people like that last of us two
sadly that's true
How many of this people have actually played the game?
All of the complain is because of 2 story elements and almost none of the gameplay.
@@user-nz2vk9rq6y but there was nothing really that new in gameplay....
@@user-nz2vk9rq6y I feel positive about TLOU2 but gameplay was not the strength of the game. It was more leaning towards the plot
@@aeroblaze4 It just pretty much took everything from the gameplay in TLOU1 and polished it to a mirror sheen. I did not enjoy the gameplay in the first title, but I had a blast with TLOU2's mechanics. Everything worked so much more smoothly and seemlessly.
Honestly, for a while now I've recognized your [rather quick] shift from "oblivious, sweet girlfriend" to an engaged girlfriend who just "gets it" without having to ask too many questions. I think a lot of guys flocked to your channel for the former personality, not because it's better, but because it's more relatable. 99% of the women we date don't see any value in video games. They think they are a waste of time and/or just indulge us because they care about us. To a lot of men, that trope is more realistic and common.
However, your content quickly shifted towards true understanding of the hobby. Your high level of intelligence and respect for works of art allowed you to embrace it in a way every gamer wants to see his girl embrace games. I can see how people miss the trope because it's funny, but your content now is truly what gamers want, deep down, from their girlfriends.
Either way, your work means a lot to people. Keep doing you!
Omg this video had me in tears.. how am I just finding this channel?????
this channel is the most wholesome and entertaining shit i'v ever seen on youtube i just binged all of it and now i have withdrawal symptoms
I'm just gonna say that I absolutely ADMIRE the editing that is put into these videos. The references on each meme and perfect execution of them inspires me greatly. Keep up the amazing work!!!
that bit with parker wearing his glasses was hilarious
*The Boys* reference was absolutely hilarious!
I found this video from “my girlfriend plays dark souls three “and I got to say you’re editing is awesome 👌
3:08 the singing part made my day xDDDD
So hater's going to hate, the "old girlfriend reviews" were cool, but I've loved watching Shelby actually become a gamer and take a journey into the world of gaming we all love. Your reviews now come from not only Matt's experience, but your own and they've only gotten better and more interesting. Keep up the good work!
‘It’s plot wasn’t told through item descriptions and Vaati Vidya’ 😂 I felt that
omg that The Boys clip is perfect for From Soft games
You have my respect for including a cutaway featuring History High School. Great reference.
Shelby really is a great girlfriend she took care of my dude when he wasn’t working and allowed him to game and all of that I won’t pretend like I know the whole story but she’s awesome
Had me rolling at "Shut up about the sun!" :)
Damn first timer to the channel here and I gotta say these references are on point! Had me cracking up and so so relatable. Got my sub :D
Love your channel! Wanted to suggest Neon Abyss for your boyfriend. He and I have similar taste in games, and I think you would get a kick out of the cute animation and wacky characters.
"I have nothing left, except SPIDER MAN" was way too funny for its own good.
The "it's 3am, I'm naked" strat never works. Maybe try 4am next time
3:55 was so funny to me that I forgot to laugh. I said "that's actually really funny" out loud and went back a bit. Good channel.
that was extremely entertaining ,creative and right on point ! specially after playing though demons souls myself. I laughed so hard , thank you guys.this is good quality content , keep up the great work it was fantastic.
One day I’ll get a PS5 and experience the pain and suffering of the Demon’s Souls Remake. It’s all I want in life
You should also want Elden Ring
@@marvcollins7842 Yeah except right now it's simply a miyazaki legend
Eh it's not that bad. It's probably the easiest souls game. Unless you have black world tendency then it's just unfair.
The „its 3am, I'm naked“ got me.
Thank you for illustrating and describing what I must seem like to my girlfriend when I get locked on a boss in Souls or Smash. Now I can recognize it as it's building and take a break before I get cranky 🤣 Great video! As always!
I honestly don't know how I stumbled on to this video. I have not yet watched any of your other videos, but I can already say that I am a fan of yours! You have yourself another subscriber. Great video!
"It's plot wasn't told through item descriptions and VaatiVidya"
Vaati has done more for fans of Souls stories than Miazaki
Next souls game should have vaatividya in it lol
The fact that people are claiming that this channel has "changed" or "gotten serious" as a reason to unsubscribe or stop watching is ridiculous. Look, no one can tell what you what to like or watch. Unsubscribe if you need to. But what you don't get to do is hide behind an excuse that is objectively and patently untrue. This has always been a game review channel. Whether it was from the perspective of a "backseat gamer" or not, GFR has always broken down and analyzed the same critical aspects of games that any reviewer - whether amateur or professional - would examine. In their first video about RDR2, Shelby talks about the scenery, cinematography, voice acting, and overall plot of the game - all aspects that any game review channel would analyze. The top comment on that video is, "Wow, this is a really funny and smart way to disguise a game review," and it was liked by GFR. Their style has been consistent since their first video so the claim that they've "changed" just simply isn't valid. Again, no one can tell you what to like. Leave the channel if you want. But do yourself a favor and be honest with yourself. You left because you disagreed with them (probably on the TLOU2 review) and it upset you that they didn't see things the way you did. No one can take that away from you and that's fine. But you don't get to make objectively false statements on your way out the door.
so is this like a review channel with a lot of comedic relief? (not that i’m saying it’s bad cuz this video was funny, and while it somewhat sounded like she was shitting on the game, nothing out of it sounded like “it’s a bad game, rather it’s a pretty good game”)
this is the first video i came across if this channel so i’m just curious
@@kushplush6366 I think that's a fair way to sum up the channel. I'd also say that their reviews are different because they try to analyze what the game devs wanted to accomplish with their games and whether they were successful at conveying that message or not (e.g. check out their Death Stranding and TLOU2 Reviews). Many game review channels review from a perspective of "did I enjoy the game or not", and if the answer is "no", then they tend to highlight all the negative aspects of the game in their review and say it was bad. If it was good, they do the opposite. GFR takes an objective view and discusses whether the game actually achieved its goals, and then they talk about whether they enjoyed it or not with all the comedic relief attached. Also, you'll find that Matt has the sickest references bro, they're seriously out of control, everyone knows that. Enjoy the channel!
Can't pay attention to every incel loser trolls on the internet.
I’m liking what I’m seeing already! Thanks Scott The Woz for featuring her in your video!

Imagine being such a creepy hipster as to think Girlfriend reviews has even been a thing long enough for them to 'change'. Their vids are literally the same style as their earlier ones.
"I found this channel when it had less subscribers but now it has more subscribers and that makes it worse"
Guaranteed gf reviews just had an opinion the morons didn’t like
They're just jealous from not having a girlfriend
Personally I find the reviews where she is watching he play and not enjoying funnier than the ones she likes the game. And the later became more common as she herself got more involved with games in general. So I kinda understand the sentiment about "old videos were better" even if its not technically the case (both are great, but I do prefer the over the top rant about things that the one playing would not perceive)
Funny enough its the opposite for the streams duo to the same reason, she is more confortable and enjoying herself more, which makes the stream more enjoyable overall
speaking of the hardest bosses, now we need Mat to play bloodborne, wait until he reaches orphan and starts screaming to the tv
Elden Ring is my first Souls game (ignore how quick I bounced off Sekiro in 2019), so it’s only right I revisit the FromSoft GR vids while pooping.
It made me a lil sad being reminded that GR’s success came with so many unappreciative, mean for 0 reason type beat comments (and that death threat internet terrorism BS. Glad y’all are so resilient!).
I love this channel, love seeing a couple thrive as creative partners, and I feel that great writing and great editing (the funny, the gaming insights that add much appreciated context that would never occur to us newer gamers, the perfect relevant pop media moments inserted throughout) is a gift each and every time.
May we all never forget the large active viewership GR has is full of love and support for u2!
A lot of the clips of videos from shows/movies in all of your YT videos CRACK me up! I literally LOL’d!
So after watching a few videos, I subscribed. Humor 10/10!
