I still remember a quote from a movie that really stuck with me when playing this game. "YOU MISSED? HOW COULD YOU MISS? HE WAS THREE FEET IN FRONT OF YOU!!"
After playing Fear and Hunger for a while, you'll discover that the true horrors that lurks inside the dungeon is the frame drops because my god the frame drops caused me much more stress than dealing with crow mauler or what not because as sooner or later, you'll get the hang of dealing with them. The frame rate though? Nope, you can only try to press everything hoping your character don't done goof cause of the lag.
There are some valid complaints here. I love it when the conclusion to a review of a game that doesn't suit someone is, "not for me" rather than "bad gaem". I mean, I bounced off of this game quite hard, just because I discovered it at a time when I was busy with IRL stuff. I still think that this is a pretty good game, I just don't have the time to dedicate to learning it...anyway, some of the arguments in those reviews are quite funny. I dunno about the one with keybindings. From what I remember, I thought that everything related to controls was pretty standard for rpgmaker-style games. Though, I do have to admit, I do love seeing mah boy Squee represented in the review(don't mind me, this is a Magic The Gathering reference).
Yeah I'll always try to include valid complaints in these videos because I don't want the only topic of the video to be making fun of reviews, I also am interested in showing some concrete problems of the game from my experience!
The keybinding thing is kinda disingenuous because its 2 buttons and the arrow keys, z too interact, x for the menu and escape too back out like theres not much too "rebind" and its pretty intutiive you look at the controls for a couple seconds
I went into the game completely blind and immediately got that there wasn't a point in fighting the dogs at the start, like assumed the barking was a warning meant to force the player into the dungeon as soon as possible. Idk why someone would think otherwise
I get they're a timer to keep people from hesitating too long, but is there a lore reason for them I'm missing? Also, chasing you into the dungeon too, is just brutal. All I know is, you need to hit the next zone after the entrance for them to eff off in the higher difficulty.
@@Maniacman2030 Their Francois's dogs, he probably kept them near the dungeon as further protection to not let anyone into Mav'hrave when he was still high asf on power.
Some people are not open minded enough for this game. They see it's an RPG game, they'll think the difficult stuff is enemies with powerful skills and ton of hp. Fear & Hunger is not interested in that, it does not want you to fight every fight, it does not want you to explore every area, it does not want you to think you are in for another generic RPG game. One part of the difficulty comes in with the dilemmas you'll have to go through, but some people simply don't understand that. Keep it up 🙌
I love how perfect guards are in design gameplay wise. I love how fucked it is that guards still atrack after dying, showing that one must always be careful even if op.
Actually iirc someone on the F&H discord said that the dev made them that way as he didn't know how to make them die immediately and then decided to leave them like that!
i think its so you cant just hit the head and take no damage. so you have to actually remove the dangerous parts and actually interact with the limb mechanic. if this wasnt in the game everyone would play like super eyepatch wolf and would think this is a "roll the dice" game lmao
Kudos to you for making the game better Edit: also the dude not trying anything other than fighting the dogs is not the kind of dude who this game is made for. If you don't have the mindset/imagination this kind of game takes you are going to have a horrible time.
it’s like the people who try to kill every lizard they find in rain world and then complaining the green takes “infinite” (7, typically) spear hits to kill, like, m8 the whole point is that sometimes you’re not supposed to kill shit
The guys complaining about the hounds are probably the same guys who would die in DnD on their first encounter because the DM made the match specifically to illustrate that you both can and should run from fights sometimes and they couldn't take the hint
Once I was playing a session of dnd with my friends,we're new to playing and done about 0 research and then he pulls out a session like none other,that was so stressful but could have been so easily avoided. The key to this was that the noises the creature was making and how the village was empty,dead everywhere. Had we turned tails and went a bit further,we would have met with the village's army and destroyed the ennemies. Instead we continued,played hide and seek for 3 hours with monsters that would have killed us on the spot,only for us to lose the mission and lose one of our pc friends ans 2 npcs that were really strong. Lesson of the story:when something tells you you should run, r u n
Fear & Hunger is the definition of an acquired tasted. The pure black coffee of video games. It's painful, unforgiving, and cruel to your senses. But, after a few sips and attempts, can't get enough of them.
Reviewing fear and hunger when you’ve played less than an hour is just kinda sad. It took me a good hour or so to start having fun with it but now it’s my favorite game ever. Those guys are missing out
Honestly speaking, I feel like reviews should require you to at least play the game for more than an hour, if you've played the game for any less than that and you give a bad review it's one of 3 things A) technical problems (understandable) B) You had an inherent negative bias on it even before trying it and complain about the things anyone who's played for a decent amount of time can counter C) You bought and downloaded the game to boot it up just to leave that negative review
funger is actually really similar to rain world, it’s an extremely hostile environment with very fragile characters and very obtuse tools, the main difference is that rain world isn’t quite as dependent on rng for resource distribution as it is map size to spread tools apart one of the really big similarities tho is that cuz it doesn’t tell you much on the meta layer, you have to infer and infer fast, or just die to various shit you meet along the way
Wow, I tought the "not being able to select different body parts" was a feature of fighting without a torch on- or because my character was hurt... wow... Game became easier now.
Scrubs will be scrubs, has been the same since ancient times. I love this game even if my first run literally ended after entering after fighting off the dogs, finding a necronomicon on the very first bookshelf and going insane on the coin flip.
My first attempt featured an enki run were I got the flesh corridor guard event, though fuck it let's see how far this can go, entered the ticked area getting two lucky headshots on both dogs, developed panophobia through the mumblers, got 99 lucky coins, visited the dead legarde and nearly got ending E first try without legs but sadly died to the iron shakespeare
This honestly feels more like a survival puzzle game than a standard RPG. That's the mindset I have with it and it's made the game a lot more enjoyable.
Based on my experience, Fear and Hunger(at least Termina) can be usually beaten on the normal difficulity even with garbage rng. Rng only becomes a problem on the Maso mode/hard mode, in Maso mode a single miss can ruin your entire run, as example: i got something really good from a chest, then i attacked a sickle villager, i missed his arm, he attacked me, then placed a bear trap, forcing me to guard, stabs and slams me and now i have almost died to the WEAKEST mob in the game, being left with ONLY 25 hp and an infection. Or more commonly, me using mischief of rats only for it to not stun or for the enemy to straight up ignore the fact they are stunned, or ignoring the fact that i was guarding and either dealing the same damage(Karin) or dealing MORE(Caligura). Not to mention that i once got softlocked in Maso mode because Caligura's corpse fell on me and i couldn't move, and if i didn't get lucky with the GoFaH skin bible and saved earlier, i would have had to restart my entire run because the game said "no, fuck you". And then there is yet another run that was ruined because a random Half-cocooned mallet guy that decided to spawn at the orphanage and then killed me, i could go on and on about how rng and bugs ruined my runs but then the comment would be too long. It doesn't help either that enemies destroy half your hp bar in 1 turn with the best gear. So basically, if you know what you are doing - you will usually succeed, just not in Maso mode.
Hi Frapollo, I would enjoy seeing some Termina streams, I think seeing people discover new things is the best for this type of game especially, and Termina has lots of hidden little things like the first game.
Termina streams are gonna arrive once I know more about the game, for now on the channel I have a full blindrun and a challenge run olivia maso mode no wheelchair!
I hope you enjoy doing this series enough to keep it going for a while. I assumed the last one was a one-off, but I was happy to see another one of these! I've enjoyed your Funger videos a lot since I finally decided to give the game a try years after I initially didn't think it would be for me, and your videos have been very helpful for tips. Please keep up the great work!
Thank you so much, I was having that problem with not being able to select limbs properly and just figured that it was something screwy with how my pc ran the game but now I should be golden with that mouse cursor tip. thank you.
You know, these videos make me feel better. At least when I suck at a game, I go to look up if there's something I'm missing instead of assuming I'm god's gift to the steam review page and posting a rant that only really shows how I got noob-baited.
Here’s the complaint I have about fear and hunger I played fear and hunger and fear and hunger Termina The first game has too many enemies that chop off limbs considering how hard it is to get your limbs back I like that in fear and hunger Termina you can write the rule of Silvin on a ritual circle to get your limbs back that mechanic should be in fear and hunger one it would make the game feel a lot more fair but I liked both games
Because a "negative" review means "I don't recommend this game", which in that case is objectively correct. It's a joke edgy ragebait game, not a well designed or thought out one, it's just a gigantic troll with a childish edgy aesthetic on purpose, not the kind of game to be recommended to anyone unless it was a free flash game to troll your friends.
@@frapollo94 Holy shit I can't believe I never noticed that. I was even amused that it sounds like a dramatic reality show intro. That explains everything.
11:29 The final sentence in this review is referring to Fear & Hunger on a coneptual level, Fear & Hunger could easily go beyond being a video game and has a lot of potential in other forms of media, the only thing it needs is decent adaptations instead of the usual messy adaptations we get.
Good point about the dogs, couldn't have said it better there's alot of subtle messages the game is trying to get across, but not by outright telling you to do something. Does everything have to be spelled out on the screen in big letters for them? To hold their hand through the darkness? What fun would that be? It would ruin the replay value in the beginning of the game, it feels fresh every game the way it is.
Completely agree with you my friend! Not saying that games which explain all the mechanics in details are necessarily bad, but not even games who want the player to think!
wwoooooooow I didnt know about the mouse aiming parts of the body, It happened to me a few times during fights that I got stuck to one part of the body, but I thought it was part of the fight and I didn't understand that "mechanic" haha.
Oh my god Mr Frapollo, I got stuck in the fight against chambara because I could only target the gears....I thought it was a bug, but you enlightened me. Thank you so much, I did not know the mouse also selects! You have enlightened me, thank you so so so so much
Some coments make me want to send a get gud scrub letter to their mail Also after searching the music you put at the beginning of the stream called battle of the wonderland i started playing black souls and liked the game so far, also the enemy desing is very cool and the boss battle music slaps
Happy you started and liked black souls my friend! It's very funny as a game and gives a lot of possibilities to become easily overpowered if you want!
When I was playing the First part O' Fear And hunger today I decided to put something up so I don't go insane playing the game.And...I just saw your video! (Thanks For making Fear and hunger videos!)
I've spent thoudands of hours in Ancient Domain of Mystery, where for example your 10hours OP character will get instakilled at some point if you don't have Death Ray resistance... I think the biggest problem is that those people see F&H as a JRPG, while it makes more sense to see it as a survival horror game; if you fight something you could have avoided you were wrong in the first place. Also RNGesus takes as much as he gives; sometime you'll miss a guard's arm 5 times in a row, some other times the girl is gonna headshot the Crowmauler first try
Yeah sometimes RNG will just be bad, the thing you can do to prevent it is to have a backup plan! I always do that when i'm gonna face important fights!
I'm not fan of super hard, unforgiving games like this tbh, but I'm interested on getting it and the sequel just so I can see the story, which I've been hooked on, by myself (wish there was a casual where you get to experience the story and not be worried of losing all your progress because of some mistake), I'll probably be using mods since I really don't like doing things over and over and it'd be nice to manually save anytime.
personally I play Termina with hacks on simply to get infinite Books of Enlightenment, call me a scrub if you will but I simply enjoy using saves and not stressing over time, maybe one day I'll actually play Termina the proper way lol
I will say just on that bit at the end there that yeah there are people who don't want to play the game but find the games story incredibly interesting. Me personally I'm probably never going to pick up the game because of how soul crushingly difficult it looks, but I love watching videos on it because the concepts and design of the game are so bloody interesting to explore
There's to main things I don't like about Fear and Hunger The bugs And gatekeeping lore behind a gacha system despite it being one of the main things in the game 😭 Other than that I love Fear and Hunger
While I sort of understand what you mean with the second point, it's still easy to find all books, there are like 10 lore gacha books in total, with 1 or 2 runs you'll find them all! Rest of the story is from dialogues!
Reading "reviews" like these always reminds me of darkest dungeon. "Too much RNG", "hard for the sake of hard", "bullshit everywhere" GIT GUD scrubs. Il tuo accento è meraviglioso comunque.
To be fair, Darkest Dungeon had also its share of problems and the critique of it being "too much RNG" is true. It takes one wrong crit, one bad resist or one failed deathblow check and its over. 60% of the game is skill, rest is complete luck. I still dont know how lucky I was to finish Blood Moon difficulty.
@@ExtremeMan10I disagree. If you're reliant on a deathblow resist, you're already testing your luck too much. When playing DD, the "trick" is to assume that things WILL go wrong. Not hoping you will be alright. Enemies will crit, you will be surprised, a 95% trap disarm will fail, a shambler will appear and fuck you up. But you'll always be in control. A wise general cuts losses, and retreats.
@@zenkichihitoyoshi9513 oh yes, so crit 4 times in a row with 5% chance of death that HAPPENS is something you should be prepared for. Its bad design, if you played bloodmoon/stygian you wouldnt write any nonsense about general.
@@ExtremeMan10 yeah, even the worst things. Retreat is always an option. I did play bloodmoon and I also played torchless darkest. The latter is the unbalanced one, because that's a risk that is not worth it.
I'm dead ass not believing that guy who said he played DD and DS titles actually did it lmao, part of the learning on those games is adapting, having patience, and of course, being stubborn enough to play said games an unholy amount of time... stinky poo poo
They may have played DD and DS but I certainly don't believe they were any good at it. People only say that to try to prevent people from pointing out that it's a skill issue. But it's still a skill issue.
There could be a lot of different complaints like how obscure the fighting mechanics, enemy patterns, how the guard works and how it evades the one shot coinflip. The coinflip itself could be a topic of discussion since one guy had a good point that this game is so luck reliant that you can’t win without being lucky and how the game shows you the coin mechanic to make you think you did the difference there. I know the game well enough to see the patterns and beat it without relying on luck too much but without that knowledge, the whole game seems to be random as the coin flips, one shot attacks, misses and many others Like with the hounds it will be obvious at some point that you just need to hide, a one or two attempts, nothing too out of proportion but with the guard. One thing you can always certainly know is that cleaver can chop your arm off, however, how many attempts will it take for you to see the pattern of one shot attack? How many attempts it would take for you to see how to evade it? And I’m not even talking about trial and error, I mean even if you won but just because the coin flip was in your favour, will you think there was a pattern? I mean he had a dick with random chance of hitting you really hard, he had a coinflip attack why wouldn’t it be random? The problem with the game is that it doesn’t really show you that it has patterns and doesn’t give you ways of noticing these. There is so much randomness that every pattern seems like a random thing. I’m not saying it needs handholding, it just needs to make it a bit more obvious to find out like with sharp things cutting your limbs or importance of always moving
I understand what you mean but I disagree, as if it told you "look at this thing! It's a pattern that you have to understand" then the game would just become a book! Also there's a hint from ser Seymor that guard may be useful!
@@frapollo94 to be fair though, using Guard when your alone does seem like a bit of a waste though? I mean you are effectively giving the enemy a free turn, granted the enemy can't coin flip you or chop off your limbs off but damage is still damage and it'll accumulate eventually no? I'm not saying it's a bad thing inherently to have enemies like the Prison Guards be the way they are or the game is badly designed, but a *little* bit more communication couldn't hurt right?
the unfairness of the game is a feature imo. it just lends a hand to the storytelling - the dungeons of Fear and Hunger are not a place where fairness or morality get any oxygen. That’s the point, it’s meant to be suffocatingly depraved. There’s no facade of righteousness or of player omnipotence, which affects the way you make decisions, which affects the way you receive the story, etc. Even w all of Frappolo’s guidance, you have to actually wrestle with this game to the bitter end and i love it so much for that
Give the Casuals a break, they cant cope xD Edit: i dont really see the "This game is hard" as a valid opinion, the tags literally says (Difficult) and (Roguelike). if the player didn't see this one coming, then they probably really need to GitGud.
I risk having an epileptic attack every time someone uses the fact that he played """"hard games like dark souls"""" to describe himself as a good gamer... dark souls is a game and as such it is designed to have you learn how to beat it, and it works that way perfectly. If you completed it you're not a badass player you're a person that has the patience of playing it a bit more, it is sad that there are people not able to play a game in which you can't win every battle not cool that someone can...
Dark souls had a whole marketing campaign about how it's an uber hard game that a lot of people bought into. Thing is, especially the first one, really isn't. You have so much healing you can have more total health than the bosses. And you do similar damage to bosses if you keep upgrading your offense. Combine these two things and you can just hit trade every fight in the game, don't have to learn shit.
@@DrSilvergun Yea in my runs I pretty much decide to never put any points in Vitality so that I will have actually dodge stuff to win a fight, I remember in one of my ds3 runs (i think fists only but i might be wrong) I spent a little too much time on nameless king and was getting annoyed so i just changed a bit of my stats to get some vitality and I did it first try, if you can heal and tank at least 4 hits you are guaranteed to win with most bosses
Honestly after watching a bunch of VOD's and guides you make for the game, its like downloading cheat codes into my brain (but they don't always work). And that what I love about the game, you can know almost all the mechanics in the game and the game can still crap in your oatmeal.
To be fair, the game doesnt tell u ANYTHING. Without watching guides or reading the wiki at some points its pretty hard to get started. But once u know the basic, its actually pretty easy. 30 minutes to legarde is super doable while taking almost no fights. Personally, I do think the game should give out more hints at least, because the learning curve is incredibly steep otherwise. I enjoyed the game after watching a video essay on it so i know the basics and was able to explore the rest, but for someone who just picked it off the shelf unaware, they might just think its bad game design.
I disagree, there are a few spots where you get interesting informations, like seymor for example, of course starting as a newbie is hard, but starting as a newbie is hard for any game! But respect your opinion
@@frapollo94 I do think the game could benefit from giving u some more hints though. For example, the guard is a harmless enemy when u know his attack patterns but it would take 5-8 deaths to figure it out on ur own which would turn down alot of ppl. I mean its not even told that guarding blocks insta kill attacks. If u know ur going into the game expecting the learning curve, its not that hard to spend time to figure out stuff. But if someone just pick it off the shelf, its easy to get turned off within the first hour or so.
@@KerberosVal seymor puts you in the right direction about guarding coinflips! Also if the game immediately tells you everything then for how Funger is designed there would be no point in playing! If you already know everything about what to do there is no fun! Knowledge is the real strategy in this game!
i believe most of these reviews are probably caused due to people being accostomed to games were actions you must take are usually obvious and there is a rare need to think of different approaches or analization. though i could be wrong
Now that the fear and hunger darkest dungeon comparison has been made I cannot wait for fear and hunger narrations by the darkest dungeon narrator *finds D'arce* A DEATH BY INCHES
Oh holy cow! I didn't even know you could use the mouse lol. I'm so used to playing RPG Maker games with keyboard only I really didn't even think to use my mouse XD
Honestly after playing darkest dungeon for a long time I'd say that game is much more unfair than Fear and Hunger since Fear and Hunger has some certainties you can rely on when you have bad luck while Darkest Dungeon is pretty much entirely made up of RNG
while darkest dungeon is random the game gives you all the tools to prepare for the things that might happen but the game can feel unfair in that regard if you dont really know what is going to/has a chance to happen
I've found a visual bug in the entrace of Maha'bre's past that makes the city's background flash rapidly. I'm really glad i'm not epiletic, because i was home alone for hours and if i was i'd probably be dead. Worst thing is, is that i can't get rid of it, so i just try not to pass there too often. And if i can, i switch to the rpesent to maoe it easier in my eyes.
@@frapollo94 Nope, normal progression. Even with me going back to the present, reopening the game or anything like that it kept happening. I just wandeed in changed to the past to explore and when i backtracked a bit because i wanted to do a puzzle my eyes were hit with the eye-hurting screen. Maybe it's a bug connected to the passages of Mahabre, but i had used it to get the blue sin quite early into my playthough. I got lucky and got it next to the dark priests.
Ho pensato agli inizi che fear and hunger fosse ingiusto e impossibile. Mi sono ricreduto guardando la Wikia e tuoi video e infine averlo completato. Ma fear and hunger termina ... È fuori scala. Il rage quit assicurato , invece nel primo avevi solo l illusione di essere inerme.
devo dirti la verità, secondo me Termina è più facile del primo! Ci sono molte più skill rotte e party members ottenibili troppo facilmente, e i boss spesso sono mediocri nella difficoltà, ma ne parleremo meglio quando inizierò le guide di Termina!
Had a hard time listening with the chaotic evil gameplay in the background. Rip girl and moonless. Edit: Squee is like a mouse cry sound effect... I think?
@@frapollo94 Squee is slang from like the early 2000s to express that something is really 'darling/adorable' or really 'exciting/great'. It's supposed to imitate the sound of a girlish squeal if that makes sense.
To be fair, all of the years of gaming have taught me (and probably not only me) that going for the head is always the best decision. You damage head of your enemy - he is defeated. Also head usually gets more damage because it's... well... a head. So it's only natural to assume that in FnH you have to only go for the head of every enemy. Unfortunately, this game is not your typical RPG, and every fight is a puzzle rather than a DPS/HPS check.
11:30 I watch people play games like this because I'm not a fan of turn-based mechanics but I often like the stories these RPGs have to offer... And this also applies to horror games, I'm a coward so I'll much rather laugh at someone else getting scared (and only get a little bit of second hand scared instead of trying to play it myself where I would likely just stop at some point) :P
I have a decent pc but even I find that I have big frame drops outside tower of endless and in the Mahbre alleys outside temple of torment. I wanna say it's something to do with the way they layered everything. It's like it the game doesn't like when the usual Mahabre mist mingles with the backround image.
I've never played a platformer before and rpg like this, I am a big fan of souls borne games so I like difficulty and learning through the process of gaining knowledge to gain the upper hand, i loved the game no doubt the lore, the mechanics everything, my only complain was the RNG coin flip with the save mechanic so I actually mod my game and it gave me a book of save from which I can save infinitely from anywhere so it helped alot
Happy you liked it! But since you're one of those that didn't like the save rng coinflip mechanicm I want to know: now that you know there are safe beds, and that if you clean the floor the bed is safe, do you still dislike it?
I didn't even knew there were safe beds lol, because I stopped saving on beds, even tho I have completed all endings and S endings for cahara and Ragnvaldr, and I just started playing the second part fear and hunger termina, if I don't like something about the game I don't complain lol I just mod it :P, but I wish I knew there were safe beds I wouldn't have modded it in the first place@@frapollo94
Frapollo: "why would you care about (the game endings) if you don't want to play the game" Me who will never play the game but watches videos on it: *chuckles nervously*
Haha yeah I also said that maybe it's just a thing that I don't understand! I watch a lot of video essays for example, but not because I necessarily care about the game itself, but because I want to listen to someone narrating!
@@frapollo94 yeah I heard of F&H from super eyepatch wolf's video and then just loredived, but I'm not really that into video games, let alone very hard ones, so I never thought about picking it up myself. Buuut I am slowly getting converted and may play termina soon!
9:21 Oh, I like this one. I play Library of Ruina, a game built on the foundation of dicerolls. That game is an rng fuckfest. The skillful part is *making setups that are strong enough to reduce the reliance on rng.*
Oh I'm currently playing that game as well on streams! Yeah the thing you do in that game, and that in general you do in all games, is reducing the rng as much as possible to stick to a consistent plan!
Been playing this game for a week now and i just discovered there was a fullscreen? Thanks man also now i know there is a game reset because i fat fingered the key beside it
I have a complaint! Play time: About 2 months. Complaint: I never knew you could use Necromancy on Alll-Mer. That's...quite disturbing. Review: Doesn't give me a rise.
I completely dismissed my encounter with the aim bug because I thought it was related to garbage collection like the performance. Because using the mouse in a game like that simply was not even a consideration for me.
For the first review: Very nice review from a personal perspective but it really always gets to me. A 6 out of 10 is now a negative review. We have all been spoiled so much, I feel.
I can't blame them completely, after all when you pay for a game and you think it's a 6/10 the point is, was it really worth your money? (despite of the arguments those people have I mean)
I think my only complain is that lore wise at least Darce and Garangararg should fight better and not lose limbs, dudes have been in many battles against seasoned soldiers, how did they never lose any limb if they are so bad!
So, about being interested in the game and don't even wanting to play it, that's totally me, I have watched A LOT of fear & hunger content, I absolutely love it, but I absolutely will never play it, I don't want to get near that game, I would hate every single aspect of playing it, but I just love watching other people playing and talking about it
Understandable! Yeah I kinda understand that position even tho I don't do the same! I tend to watch video essays of games not much because I'm interested into the game but because the narration of the speaker intrigues me!
Im ngl, i can't believe that one reviewer couldnt figure how to enable fullscreen (which even if for some reason your f4 key didnt function you could choose to full screen the window for nearly the same effect) or the "cant select body parts bug" which imo youd figure out when you went to close the game since it was "bugged"
I think the "can't select body parts bug" is more understandable, if you've never played the game and try only once, you'd almost never connect the mouse to the error, which is why I didn't get angry about that criticism!
I still remember a quote from a movie that really stuck with me when playing this game.
"YOU MISSED? HOW COULD YOU MISS? HE WAS THREE FEET IN FRONT OF YOU!!"
lol
Sounds like XCOM experience to me
Thats xcom Baby
if you think about it 30 cm dic* in front of you :D that can make someone afraid and make them miss xd
Damn is that Tibby Dobbs ????
Honestly, they just jelly they couldn't pull-off high sock like Enki does, or the big... guns guard have.

Oh no...
it works extremely bad tho
After playing Fear and Hunger for a while, you'll discover that the true horrors that lurks inside the dungeon is the frame drops because my god the frame drops caused me much more stress than dealing with crow mauler or what not because as sooner or later, you'll get the hang of dealing with them. The frame rate though? Nope, you can only try to press everything hoping your character don't done goof cause of the lag.
Frame drops are the worst thing possible in mahabre, making the best zone of the game a nightmare!
The true fear of the dungeon is when you get softlocked by a stun move. Or when the game just stops for some reason
Wait frame drops wasn't my shitty computer fault ? You are saying that thoose are normal ?

Yeah I'll always try to include valid complaints in these videos because I don't want the only topic of the video to be making fun of reviews, I also am interested in showing some concrete problems of the game from my experience!
The keybinding thing is kinda disingenuous because its 2 buttons and the arrow keys, z too interact, x for the menu and escape too back out like theres not much too "rebind" and its pretty intutiive you look at the controls for a couple seconds
I went into the game completely blind and immediately got that there wasn't a point in fighting the dogs at the start, like assumed the barking was a warning meant to force the player into the dungeon as soon as possible. Idk why someone would think otherwise
I'm so happy you were able to understand that!
deadass, was sat there looting, heard barking, immediately dipped
I get they're a timer to keep people from hesitating too long, but is there a lore reason for them I'm missing? Also, chasing you into the dungeon too, is just brutal. All I know is, you need to hit the next zone after the entrance for them to eff off in the higher difficulty.
@@Maniacman2030 Their Francois's dogs, he probably kept them near the dungeon as further protection to not let anyone into Mav'hrave when he was still high asf on power.
Some people are not open minded enough for this game. They see it's an RPG game, they'll think the difficult stuff is enemies with powerful skills and ton of hp. Fear & Hunger is not interested in that, it does not want you to fight every fight, it does not want you to explore every area, it does not want you to think you are in for another generic RPG game. One part of the difficulty comes in with the dilemmas you'll have to go through, but some people simply don't understand that. Keep it up 🙌
Completely agree with you!
I love how perfect guards are in design gameplay wise. I love how fucked it is that guards still atrack after dying, showing that one must always be careful even if op.
Actually iirc someone on the F&H discord said that the dev made them that way as he didn't know how to make them die immediately and then decided to leave them like that!
Happy acident i guess
i think its so you cant just hit the head and take no damage. so you have to actually remove the dangerous parts and actually interact with the limb mechanic. if this wasnt in the game everyone would play like super eyepatch wolf and would think this is a "roll the dice" game lmao
No you don't.
I love the way you pronounce "two"

Kudos to you for making the game better
Edit: also the dude not trying anything other than fighting the dogs is not the kind of dude who this game is made for. If you don't have the mindset/imagination this kind of game takes you are going to have a horrible time.
Absolutely agree with you my friend!
it’s like the people who try to kill every lizard they find in rain world and then complaining the green takes “infinite” (7, typically) spear hits to kill, like, m8 the whole point is that sometimes you’re not supposed to kill shit
The guys complaining about the hounds are probably the same guys who would die in DnD on their first encounter because the DM made the match specifically to illustrate that you both can and should run from fights sometimes and they couldn't take the hint
That's called being a lawful stupid asshole.
Once I was playing a session of dnd with my friends,we're new to playing and done about 0 research and then he pulls out a session like none other,that was so stressful but could have been so easily avoided.
The key to this was that the noises the creature was making and how the village was empty,dead everywhere. Had we turned tails and went a bit further,we would have met with the village's army and destroyed the ennemies. Instead we continued,played hide and seek for 3 hours with monsters that would have killed us on the spot,only for us to lose the mission and lose one of our pc friends ans 2 npcs that were really strong.
Lesson of the story:when something tells you you should run, r u n
Fear & Hunger is the definition of an acquired tasted. The pure black coffee of video games. It's painful, unforgiving, and cruel to your senses. But, after a few sips and attempts, can't get enough of them.
Yeah I think I absolutely agree with you!
now we are addict cafein
Reviewing fear and hunger when you’ve played less than an hour is just kinda sad. It took me a good hour or so to start having fun with it but now it’s my favorite game ever. Those guys are missing out
Yeah I sadly have to agree, I think leaving a review would need more time on game!
Honestly speaking, I feel like reviews should require you to at least play the game for more than an hour, if you've played the game for any less than that and you give a bad review
it's one of 3 things
A) technical problems (understandable)
B) You had an inherent negative bias on it even before trying it and complain about the things anyone who's played for a decent amount of time can counter
C) You bought and downloaded the game to boot it up just to leave that negative review
@@sidekic1109 How do you stop C
Just leave the game running for an hour
Oh I never knew about that mouse cursor thing for selecting enemy body parts. I thought it was just a bug.
funger is actually really similar to rain world, it’s an extremely hostile environment with very fragile characters and very obtuse tools, the main difference is that rain world isn’t quite as dependent on rng for resource distribution as it is map size to spread tools apart
one of the really big similarities tho is that cuz it doesn’t tell you much on the meta layer, you have to infer and infer fast, or just die to various shit you meet along the way
YOOOO FELLOW RAIN WORLD FAN
5:18 "Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is?"
lmao
Wow, I tought the "not being able to select different body parts" was a feature of fighting without a torch on- or because my character was hurt... wow... Game became easier now.
Scrubs will be scrubs, has been the same since ancient times. I love this game even if my first run literally ended after entering after fighting off the dogs, finding a necronomicon on the very first bookshelf and going insane on the coin flip.
My first attempts went in a similar way!
My first attempt featured an enki run were I got the flesh corridor guard event, though fuck it let's see how far this can go, entered the ticked area getting two lucky headshots on both dogs, developed panophobia through the mumblers, got 99 lucky coins, visited the dead legarde and nearly got ending E first try without legs but sadly died to the iron shakespeare
This honestly feels more like a survival puzzle game than a standard RPG. That's the mindset I have with it and it's made the game a lot more enjoyable.
Exactly my friend, this even before than being a game of strategy (on planning) is a game of knowledge!
@@frapollo94 Dying to the dogs was fucking hilarious though because I also take my time in games so being ganked right at the start was very funnt
Based on my experience, Fear and Hunger(at least Termina) can be usually beaten on the normal difficulity even with garbage rng.
Rng only becomes a problem on the Maso mode/hard mode, in Maso mode a single miss can ruin your entire run, as example: i got something really good from a chest, then i attacked a sickle villager, i missed his arm, he attacked me, then placed a bear trap, forcing me to guard, stabs and slams me and now i have almost died to the WEAKEST mob in the game, being left with ONLY 25 hp and an infection. Or more commonly, me using mischief of rats only for it to not stun or for the enemy to straight up ignore the fact they are stunned, or ignoring the fact that i was guarding and either dealing the same damage(Karin) or dealing MORE(Caligura).
Not to mention that i once got softlocked in Maso mode because Caligura's corpse fell on me and i couldn't move, and if i didn't get lucky with the GoFaH skin bible and saved earlier, i would have had to restart my entire run because the game said "no, fuck you".
And then there is yet another run that was ruined because a random Half-cocooned mallet guy that decided to spawn at the orphanage and then killed me, i could go on and on about how rng and bugs ruined my runs but then the comment would be too long. It doesn't help either that enemies destroy half your hp bar in 1 turn with the best gear.
So basically, if you know what you are doing - you will usually succeed, just not in Maso mode.
Exactly! You have to spend time to understand stuff! And if you don't want to, that isn't game's fault!
Hi Frapollo, I would enjoy seeing some Termina streams, I think seeing people discover new things is the best for this type of game especially, and Termina has lots of hidden little things like the first game.
Termina streams are gonna arrive once I know more about the game, for now on the channel I have a full blindrun and a challenge run olivia maso mode no wheelchair!
@@frapollo94 Fair enough!
I hope you enjoy doing this series enough to keep it going for a while. I assumed the last one was a one-off, but I was happy to see another one of these!
I've enjoyed your Funger videos a lot since I finally decided to give the game a try years after I initially didn't think it would be for me, and your videos have been very helpful for tips.
Please keep up the great work!
Thanks my friend! Yeah I think imma do more of these in the future, I have a lot of fun in recording them! Good luck with your dungeon!
Thank you so much, I was having that problem with not being able to select limbs properly and just figured that it was something screwy with how my pc ran the game but now I should be golden with that mouse cursor tip. thank you.
You're welcome my friend!
I read some of these reviews myself, it's entertaining af. Hope for more 😂
Thanks! You will see!
I... i actually dont want to play the game but, i cant stop watching videos about it.... the mythos is just sooo interesting.
You know, these videos make me feel better. At least when I suck at a game, I go to look up if there's something I'm missing instead of assuming I'm god's gift to the steam review page and posting a rant that only really shows how I got noob-baited.
Congratulations! You basically did 70% of the job by not assuming immediately that you're god's gift! You're on the good road to dominate the dungeon!
@@frapollo94 dongeon scary :(
Thank you,the mouse cursor screwed me over with the mother boss fight for my first attempt at her. LOL
I think a good part of unluck (like coinflips) at games is the relief you get when you overcome and win in spite of them.
Here’s the complaint I have about fear and hunger I played fear and hunger and fear and hunger Termina The first game has too many enemies that chop off limbs considering how hard it is to get your limbs back I like that in fear and hunger Termina you can write the rule of Silvin on a ritual circle to get your limbs back that mechanic should be in fear and hunger one it would make the game feel a lot more fair but I liked both games
One thing I don’t understand is why make a negative review when you’re admitting that it’s not the game but it’s not your cup of tea???
That's a fair question
Because a "negative" review means "I don't recommend this game", which in that case is objectively correct. It's a joke edgy ragebait game, not a well designed or thought out one, it's just a gigantic troll with a childish edgy aesthetic on purpose, not the kind of game to be recommended to anyone unless it was a free flash game to troll your friends.
"i hate fronger because there are a lot of sausages"
-69/10
Lol
I don't know if I should be laughing or crying while looking at some reviews you've shown. Anyways, good vid as always, Frap. Congrats on 21k!
Thanks my friend!
0:10 Dear God i love the intro you made for your fear and hunger videos, that music is so familiar were is it from?
Thanks! The music is the intro from Drawn Together!
@@frapollo94 Holy shit I can't believe I never noticed that. I was even amused that it sounds like a dramatic reality show intro. That explains everything.
11:29 The final sentence in this review is referring to Fear & Hunger on a coneptual level, Fear & Hunger could easily go beyond being a video game and has a lot of potential in other forms of media, the only thing it needs is decent adaptations instead of the usual messy adaptations we get.
Hmmm I see, I didn't consider it in that way when I made the video, but it makes sense!
The mouse one about selecting torso was a game changer oh my thank you!!
You're welcome my friend
Good point about the dogs, couldn't have said it better there's alot of subtle messages the game is trying to get across, but not by outright telling you to do something. Does everything have to be spelled out on the screen in big letters for them? To hold their hand through the darkness? What fun would that be? It would ruin the replay value in the beginning of the game, it feels fresh every game the way it is.
Completely agree with you my friend! Not saying that games which explain all the mechanics in details are necessarily bad, but not even games who want the player to think!
The issue is a lot of modern games spell out everything so players used to those types of games are not capable of picking out these subtleties
wwoooooooow I didnt know about the mouse aiming parts of the body, It happened to me a few times during fights that I got stuck to one part of the body, but I thought it was part of the fight and I didn't understand that "mechanic" haha.
Yeah I wanted to talk about that review especially to be able to let people know about it!
Oh my god Mr Frapollo, I got stuck in the fight against chambara because I could only target the gears....I thought it was a bug, but you enlightened me. Thank you so much, I did not know the mouse also selects! You have enlightened me, thank you so so so so much
You're welcome!
Some coments make me want to send a get gud scrub letter to their mail
Also after searching the music you put at the beginning of the stream called battle of the wonderland i started playing black souls and liked the game so far, also the enemy desing is very cool and the boss battle music slaps
Happy you started and liked black souls my friend! It's very funny as a game and gives a lot of possibilities to become easily overpowered if you want!
Glad to see part 2
And probably you will see a part 3 in the future...
Oh btw 'squee' is an onomatopoeia that would kinda be like "yippee!" It basically means you're fawning over something. Hope that helps!
Thanks!
When I was playing the First part O' Fear And hunger today I decided to put something up so I don't go insane playing the game.And...I just saw your video! (Thanks For making Fear and hunger videos!)
Awww you are welcome my friend!
I've spent thoudands of hours in Ancient Domain of Mystery, where for example your 10hours OP character will get instakilled at some point if you don't have Death Ray resistance...
I think the biggest problem is that those people see F&H as a JRPG, while it makes more sense to see it as a survival horror game; if you fight something you could have avoided you were wrong in the first place.
Also RNGesus takes as much as he gives; sometime you'll miss a guard's arm 5 times in a row, some other times the girl is gonna headshot the Crowmauler first try
Yeah sometimes RNG will just be bad, the thing you can do to prevent it is to have a backup plan! I always do that when i'm gonna face important fights!
I'm not fan of super hard, unforgiving games like this tbh, but I'm interested on getting it and the sequel just so I can see the story, which I've been hooked on, by myself (wish there was a casual where you get to experience the story and not be worried of losing all your progress because of some mistake), I'll probably be using mods since I really don't like doing things over and over and it'd be nice to manually save anytime.
Perfectly understandable
personally I play Termina with hacks on simply to get infinite Books of Enlightenment, call me a scrub if you will but I simply enjoy using saves and not stressing over time, maybe one day I'll actually play Termina the proper way lol
I will say just on that bit at the end there that yeah there are people who don't want to play the game but find the games story incredibly interesting. Me personally I'm probably never going to pick up the game because of how soul crushingly difficult it looks, but I love watching videos on it because the concepts and design of the game are so bloody interesting to explore
Completely fair!
I feel enlightened I never knew a few of the options to optimized my playing, thanks I learn something
Happy you learnt somet-WAIT NO DON'T PLAY THE GAME USING ONLY ITEMS!
There's to main things I don't like about Fear and Hunger
The bugs
And gatekeeping lore behind a gacha system despite it being one of the main things in the game 😭
Other than that I love Fear and Hunger
While I sort of understand what you mean with the second point, it's still easy to find all books, there are like 10 lore gacha books in total, with 1 or 2 runs you'll find them all! Rest of the story is from dialogues!
1:14 "fear & dunger"
Oh god the targetting bug, bro actually just sent be back a few weeks to when I didn't know to move the mouse
he attack every mob heads except maneba in which case he tried to run
Probably that's what happened lol
Reading "reviews" like these always reminds me of darkest dungeon.
"Too much RNG", "hard for the sake of hard", "bullshit everywhere"
GIT GUD scrubs.
Il tuo accento è meraviglioso comunque.
ahahah grazie bro!
To be fair, Darkest Dungeon had also its share of problems and the critique of it being "too much RNG" is true. It takes one wrong crit, one bad resist or one failed deathblow check and its over. 60% of the game is skill, rest is complete luck. I still dont know how lucky I was to finish Blood Moon difficulty.
@@ExtremeMan10I disagree. If you're reliant on a deathblow resist, you're already testing your luck too much.
When playing DD, the "trick" is to assume that things WILL go wrong. Not hoping you will be alright. Enemies will crit, you will be surprised, a 95% trap disarm will fail, a shambler will appear and fuck you up. But you'll always be in control.
A wise general cuts losses, and retreats.
@@zenkichihitoyoshi9513 oh yes, so crit 4 times in a row with 5% chance of death that HAPPENS is something you should be prepared for.
Its bad design, if you played bloodmoon/stygian you wouldnt write any nonsense about general.
@@ExtremeMan10 yeah, even the worst things. Retreat is always an option.
I did play bloodmoon and I also played torchless darkest. The latter is the unbalanced one, because that's a risk that is not worth it.
Glad to see "Frapollo" Is still making videos!
I'm dead ass not believing that guy who said he played DD and DS titles actually did it lmao, part of the learning on those games is adapting, having patience, and of course, being stubborn enough to play said games an unholy amount of time... stinky poo poo
Yeah I was a little bit confused as well
They may have played DD and DS but I certainly don't believe they were any good at it. People only say that to try to prevent people from pointing out that it's a skill issue. But it's still a skill issue.
@@JamesLacroixx honestly that sounds like a
"I worked at NASA once......as the janitor" moment
There could be a lot of different complaints like how obscure the fighting mechanics, enemy patterns, how the guard works and how it evades the one shot coinflip. The coinflip itself could be a topic of discussion since one guy had a good point that this game is so luck reliant that you can’t win without being lucky and how the game shows you the coin mechanic to make you think you did the difference there. I know the game well enough to see the patterns and beat it without relying on luck too much but without that knowledge, the whole game seems to be random as the coin flips, one shot attacks, misses and many others
Like with the hounds it will be obvious at some point that you just need to hide, a one or two attempts, nothing too out of proportion but with the guard. One thing you can always certainly know is that cleaver can chop your arm off, however, how many attempts will it take for you to see the pattern of one shot attack? How many attempts it would take for you to see how to evade it? And I’m not even talking about trial and error, I mean even if you won but just because the coin flip was in your favour, will you think there was a pattern? I mean he had a dick with random chance of hitting you really hard, he had a coinflip attack why wouldn’t it be random?
The problem with the game is that it doesn’t really show you that it has patterns and doesn’t give you ways of noticing these. There is so much randomness that every pattern seems like a random thing. I’m not saying it needs handholding, it just needs to make it a bit more obvious to find out like with sharp things cutting your limbs or importance of always moving
I understand what you mean but I disagree, as if it told you "look at this thing! It's a pattern that you have to understand" then the game would just become a book! Also there's a hint from ser Seymor that guard may be useful!
@@frapollo94 to be fair though, using Guard when your alone does seem like a bit of a waste though? I mean you are effectively giving the enemy a free turn, granted the enemy can't coin flip you or chop off your limbs off but damage is still damage and it'll accumulate eventually no?
I'm not saying it's a bad thing inherently to have enemies like the Prison Guards be the way they are or the game is badly designed, but a *little* bit more communication couldn't hurt right?
The fullscreen thing could have to do with the graphics drivers needing an update
Oh I see! I wasn't aware of that!
the unfairness of the game is a feature imo. it just lends a hand to the storytelling - the dungeons of Fear and Hunger are not a place where fairness or morality get any oxygen. That’s the point, it’s meant to be suffocatingly depraved. There’s no facade of righteousness or of player omnipotence, which affects the way you make decisions, which affects the way you receive the story, etc. Even w all of Frappolo’s guidance, you have to actually wrestle with this game to the bitter end and i love it so much for that
The mouse cursor bug was fucking annoying, when i found out on my own i felt dumb
Yeah without it the game would be better imo
YOU KILLED MOONLESS?! YOU HORRIBLE PERSON!😭😭
bro your opening is such a throwback i miss drawn together lol
Me too my friend!
Give the Casuals a break, they cant cope xD
Edit: i dont really see the "This game is hard" as a valid opinion, the tags literally says (Difficult) and (Roguelike).
if the player didn't see this one coming, then they probably really need to GitGud.
In fact I hope the part in which I explain the problems they encountered doesn't get shadowed by the part in which they say gibberish
I am playing Funger casually, either because i have watched 10 billion guides before playing the game or because i enjoy pain.
I enjoy playing Funger.
I risk having an epileptic attack every time someone uses the fact that he played """"hard games like dark souls"""" to describe himself as a good gamer... dark souls is a game and as such it is designed to have you learn how to beat it, and it works that way perfectly. If you completed it you're not a badass player you're a person that has the patience of playing it a bit more, it is sad that there are people not able to play a game in which you can't win every battle not cool that someone can...
What do you mean, if you beat Dark Souls you unlock a pass to trash talk about all games as now you're a GAMERRRRRRRR
@@frapollo94 the g word pass
Dark souls had a whole marketing campaign about how it's an uber hard game that a lot of people bought into.
Thing is, especially the first one, really isn't.
You have so much healing you can have more total health than the bosses.
And you do similar damage to bosses if you keep upgrading your offense.
Combine these two things and you can just hit trade every fight in the game, don't have to learn shit.
@@DrSilvergun Yea in my runs I pretty much decide to never put any points in Vitality so that I will have actually dodge stuff to win a fight, I remember in one of my ds3 runs (i think fists only but i might be wrong) I spent a little too much time on nameless king and was getting annoyed so i just changed a bit of my stats to get some vitality and I did it first try, if you can heal and tank at least 4 hits you are guaranteed to win with most bosses
Thanks to your Intro i just bought the Box Set of drawn together
Nice!
@@frapollo94 btw love your videos. Really opened up the world of fear and hunger to me
Honestly after watching a bunch of VOD's and guides you make for the game, its like downloading cheat codes into my brain (but they don't always work).
And that what I love about the game, you can know almost all the mechanics in the game and the game can still crap in your oatmeal.
To be fair, the game doesnt tell u ANYTHING. Without watching guides or reading the wiki at some points its pretty hard to get started. But once u know the basic, its actually pretty easy. 30 minutes to legarde is super doable while taking almost no fights. Personally, I do think the game should give out more hints at least, because the learning curve is incredibly steep otherwise. I enjoyed the game after watching a video essay on it so i know the basics and was able to explore the rest, but for someone who just picked it off the shelf unaware, they might just think its bad game design.
I disagree, there are a few spots where you get interesting informations, like seymor for example, of course starting as a newbie is hard, but starting as a newbie is hard for any game! But respect your opinion
@@frapollo94 I do think the game could benefit from giving u some more hints though. For example, the guard is a harmless enemy when u know his attack patterns but it would take 5-8 deaths to figure it out on ur own which would turn down alot of ppl. I mean its not even told that guarding blocks insta kill attacks.
If u know ur going into the game expecting the learning curve, its not that hard to spend time to figure out stuff. But if someone just pick it off the shelf, its easy to get turned off within the first hour or so.
@@KerberosVal seymor puts you in the right direction about guarding coinflips! Also if the game immediately tells you everything then for how Funger is designed there would be no point in playing! If you already know everything about what to do there is no fun! Knowledge is the real strategy in this game!
i believe most of these reviews are probably caused due to people being accostomed to games were actions you must take are usually obvious and there is a rare need to think of different approaches or analization. though i could be wrong
No I actually agree with you
Now that the fear and hunger darkest dungeon comparison has been made I cannot wait for fear and hunger narrations by the darkest dungeon narrator
*finds D'arce* A DEATH BY INCHES
Lol imagine a collab!
Yeah I learned the mouse curser thing when I play with a remote
Oh holy cow!
I didn't even know you could use the mouse lol.
I'm so used to playing RPG Maker games with keyboard only I really didn't even think to use my mouse XD
Yeah hope that was helpful to correct the bug that may happen!
2:45 ok, After more than 100 hours between fear and hunger 1 and termina I just have realised you can fullscrean the game
Honestly after playing darkest dungeon for a long time I'd say that game is much more unfair than Fear and Hunger since Fear and Hunger has some certainties you can rely on when you have bad luck while Darkest Dungeon is pretty much entirely made up of RNG
Yeah I see what you mean!
while darkest dungeon is random the game gives you all the tools to prepare for the things that might happen but the game can feel unfair in that regard if you dont really know what is going to/has a chance to happen
I've found a visual bug in the entrace of Maha'bre's past that makes the city's background flash rapidly. I'm really glad i'm not epiletic, because i was home alone for hours and if i was i'd probably be dead. Worst thing is, is that i can't get rid of it, so i just try not to pass there too often. And if i can, i switch to the rpesent to maoe it easier in my eyes.
Hmmmm I've never heard of that bug... was it always present or do you recall some special things you did to make it appear?
@@frapollo94 Nope, normal progression. Even with me going back to the present, reopening the game or anything like that it kept happening. I just wandeed in changed to the past to explore and when i backtracked a bit because i wanted to do a puzzle my eyes were hit with the eye-hurting screen. Maybe it's a bug connected to the passages of Mahabre, but i had used it to get the blue sin quite early into my playthough. I got lucky and got it next to the dark priests.
@@frapollo94 It's just the entrance to the city. The rest of the city is completely normal.
Ho pensato agli inizi che fear and hunger fosse ingiusto e impossibile. Mi sono ricreduto guardando la Wikia e tuoi video e infine averlo completato.
Ma fear and hunger termina ... È fuori scala. Il rage quit assicurato , invece nel primo avevi solo l illusione di essere inerme.
devo dirti la verità, secondo me Termina è più facile del primo! Ci sono molte più skill rotte e party members ottenibili troppo facilmente, e i boss spesso sono mediocri nella difficoltà, ma ne parleremo meglio quando inizierò le guide di Termina!
Had a hard time listening with the chaotic evil gameplay in the background.
Rip girl and moonless.
Edit: Squee is like a mouse cry sound effect... I think?
I don't know honestly my friend xD
@@frapollo94 Squee is slang from like the early 2000s to express that something is really 'darling/adorable' or really 'exciting/great'. It's supposed to imitate the sound of a girlish squeal if that makes sense.
Love the content my dude! Could you tell me what song you are using for the background by any chance.
Thanks! That's spamton theme!
@@frapollo94 Thank you!!!
LOL i had the mouse cursor bug once, i thought it was because my mind was too low or an in-game reason
Lol now that would have actually been cool!
To be fair, all of the years of gaming have taught me (and probably not only me) that going for the head is always the best decision. You damage head of your enemy - he is defeated. Also head usually gets more damage because it's... well... a head. So it's only natural to assume that in FnH you have to only go for the head of every enemy. Unfortunately, this game is not your typical RPG, and every fight is a puzzle rather than a DPS/HPS check.
11:30 I watch people play games like this because I'm not a fan of turn-based mechanics but I often like the stories these RPGs have to offer... And this also applies to horror games, I'm a coward so I'll much rather laugh at someone else getting scared (and only get a little bit of second hand scared instead of trying to play it myself where I would likely just stop at some point) :P
Completely understandable
Now's your chance to be a big shot! Big- big- biggest shot!
To be fair, I finish Termina 4 times and I didn’t know how to put the game in full screen until now….
Understandable
Glad to see i'm not the only one XD
I have a decent pc but even I find that I have big frame drops outside tower of endless and in the Mahbre alleys outside temple of torment. I wanna say it's something to do with the way they layered everything. It's like it the game doesn't like when the usual Mahabre mist mingles with the backround image.
Yeah I think it's something similar
O LORD
GIVE
FAIR REVIEWS
I've never played a platformer before and rpg like this, I am a big fan of souls borne games so I like difficulty and learning through the process of gaining knowledge to gain the upper hand, i loved the game no doubt the lore, the mechanics everything, my only complain was the RNG coin flip with the save mechanic so I actually mod my game and it gave me a book of save from which I can save infinitely from anywhere so it helped alot
Happy you liked it! But since you're one of those that didn't like the save rng coinflip mechanicm I want to know: now that you know there are safe beds, and that if you clean the floor the bed is safe, do you still dislike it?
I didn't even knew there were safe beds lol, because I stopped saving on beds, even tho I have completed all endings and S endings for cahara and Ragnvaldr, and I just started playing the second part fear and hunger termina, if I don't like something about the game I don't complain lol I just mod it :P, but I wish I knew there were safe beds I wouldn't have modded it in the first place@@frapollo94
Frapollo: "why would you care about (the game endings) if you don't want to play the game"
Me who will never play the game but watches videos on it: *chuckles nervously*
Haha yeah I also said that maybe it's just a thing that I don't understand! I watch a lot of video essays for example, but not because I necessarily care about the game itself, but because I want to listen to someone narrating!
@@frapollo94 yeah I heard of F&H from super eyepatch wolf's video and then just loredived, but I'm not really that into video games, let alone very hard ones, so I never thought about picking it up myself. Buuut I am slowly getting converted and may play termina soon!
I want more termina stuff tooo please
9:21 Oh, I like this one. I play Library of Ruina, a game built on the foundation of dicerolls. That game is an rng fuckfest. The skillful part is *making setups that are strong enough to reduce the reliance on rng.*
Oh I'm currently playing that game as well on streams! Yeah the thing you do in that game, and that in general you do in all games, is reducing the rng as much as possible to stick to a consistent plan!
@@frapollo94 mfw people get mad when they can't just bruteforce a fight until they get good rng and then blame the game for it
Been playing this game for a week now and i just discovered there was a fullscreen? Thanks man also now i know there is a game reset because i fat fingered the key beside it
Yeah reset is f5!
Reviewing the bad reviews, analyzing them and explain the game at the same time.
Grazie di esistere!
Un piacere bro!
Quite late but fellow adventurers another Frapollo video just dropped ☕🗿
I have a complaint!
Play time: About 2 months.
Complaint: I never knew you could use Necromancy on Alll-Mer. That's...quite disturbing.
Review: Doesn't give me a rise.
That's another complaint i can perfectly understand!
I completely dismissed my encounter with the aim bug because I thought it was related to garbage collection like the performance. Because using the mouse in a game like that simply was not even a consideration for me.
You're not the only one, many people didn't realize it!
First! Curious to see the vid :)
BTW Frap, is there a next challenge run stream coming? Loved the ragnavaldr S ending no menu run.
Enjoy
also the guy thinking the beginning was a tutorial like....wh...............whhhaAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT!?????
For the first review: Very nice review from a personal perspective but it really always gets to me. A 6 out of 10 is now a negative review. We have all been spoiled so much, I feel.
I can't blame them completely, after all when you pay for a game and you think it's a 6/10 the point is, was it really worth your money? (despite of the arguments those people have I mean)
I think my only complain is that lore wise at least Darce and Garangararg should fight better and not lose limbs, dudes have been in many battles against seasoned soldiers, how did they never lose any limb if they are so bad!
I see what you mean!
So, about being interested in the game and don't even wanting to play it, that's totally me, I have watched A LOT of fear & hunger content, I absolutely love it, but I absolutely will never play it, I don't want to get near that game, I would hate every single aspect of playing it, but I just love watching other people playing and talking about it
Understandable! Yeah I kinda understand that position even tho I don't do the same! I tend to watch video essays of games not much because I'm interested into the game but because the narration of the speaker intrigues me!
Oh my god, I legitimately believed you just couldn't select certain body parts in certain specific turns this entire time.
Yeah I think a lot of people wouldn't expect this bug being related to cursor!
I wonder if you bug fixed the frame rate problem cause i wanna use your mod if so
That's unfortunately outside of my knowledge
O LORD
GIVE
BRAIN
You should give me the braincells I lost in making this
Would love to see another one of these, especially now that I also posted a bad review, lol 😅
Oh my friend you will see more of these you can be assured! Also I won't include your review as long as it doesn't have weird stuff written in it!
@@frapollo94 I don't mind, just love seeing your reactions
Im ngl, i can't believe that one reviewer couldnt figure how to enable fullscreen (which even if for some reason your f4 key didnt function you could choose to full screen the window for nearly the same effect) or the "cant select body parts bug" which imo youd figure out when you went to close the game since it was "bugged"
I think the "can't select body parts bug" is more understandable, if you've never played the game and try only once, you'd almost never connect the mouse to the error, which is why I didn't get angry about that criticism!
