Thank you so much. The Sierra playthroughs are always so chill and great sleep aids but Ben was horrifically tone deaf when editing this video in particular.
I love how dan plays as if he’s presenting the game to us. He doesn’t do things the most efficient way like people who have played the game before, but let’s the story write itself out. He often lets the game interrupt his description of something because he knows that’s the best way to show the game. I have to say I really appreciate it.
Was rewatching the Dan only playthroughs and found a comment leading me here. Thank you very much for making this! Literally couldn't take Ben in this one.
Thanks for editing out those shitty loud edits and kept it all chill. Downloading this video and throwing away that old version. I can listen to dan all chill forever.
God bless, I don’t really begrudge Ben for trying to be funny. I just happen to have intense panic attacks; so the jarring edits rendered this video unwatchable for me on the main channel. It’s amazing to fully relax and watch my favorite Grump playing one of my favorite games as many times as I like without worry. Thank you.
This was the very, very first computer games I ever played. My dad would let me play in his office when he had to bring me to his work on the weekends. Nostalgia overload!
I have watched the original video all of one time. This edited version: regularly to fall asleep to. Thanks for this! I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt frustrated by the intrusive and loud edits inserted originally.
Thank you very much for this edit. Normally I have no problem with Ben's editing, I usually think he's pretty fun and playful, but this attempt seemed pretty tone deaf and the Sierra play throughs are quiet time for me.
I just found this, and thank you so much. The horrifying edits in the original episode took away from the game play so much. I always go to the Sierra Game playthroughs to chill out and the edits on this one was complete shite.
+Jason Kwast More like Arin's inability to handle conflict. I don't think Arin could handle firing anyone, even if the future of the channel depended on it.
I don't agree with removing him entirely, I like some of his edits and feel they are a breath of fresh air in GG edits. But making sure there is some kind of checks on his edits and not letting him take some of the "artistic freedoms" he has tried. Hell, I came here because I wanted to fall asleep to a new King's Quest playthrough without "SHuT tHE FucK uP!!!" wrenching me awake multiple timez.
+KingArthur55555 each to their own, I hate his edits. It's like there's no thought behind them, he's just "a silly, random guy with no leash". It baffles me that Arin likes him but hates Family Guy so much. Most of his hilarious edits aren't even jokes, it's literally "hey, there's a person there that shouldn't be there! Did you see? Did you seeeeee!!?!?". He does nothing but add distraction.
When I first saw the original I wanted to make this video myself. Thank you for doing it first! The edits are funny but I'm glad to have a chill version to enjoy the sleepy vibes.
Oh my god thank you so much. I love falling asleep to Sierra games on grumps and I was so sad when this one kept waking me up. I don't mind ben and I think he's funny most of the time but considering Sierra games are my favorite things on this channel I was so heartbroken. Thank you!!
This video has kept me company on many a sleepless night (like tonight). I have chronic nightmares but if I wake up, Dan's sierra videos help me calm down. I just want an entire channel of him walking us through games he loves and telling us all about them on the way.
please forgive the rando UA-cam comment unsolicited medical advice - but have you ever talked to your doctor about prasozin? I have pretty severe C-PTSD and taking prasozin at bedtime has wiped out my night terrors. ❤ I hope you get some relief internet stranger!
@Melissa-vx1kr I have actually! I also have c-ptsd (and more recently original flavor) and the worst nightmares are trauma-based. Unfortunately I have a brain condition that already makes me feel sick at night, and prazosin immediately made it a lot worse. I'm really glad you were able to find relief from your nightmares with it. Right now the best I can do is rescripting, working on my overall mental health, and using a little THC before bed. It doesn't make the nightmares go away but it at least calms me down so I can stand to go to sleep at all. My partner also wakes me and soothes me if they notice I'm getting worked up in my sleep. Thank you for the recommendation though!
Ben's subtle edits are fuckin hilarious but I need my peace n quiet when it comes to Danny's solo playthroughs, they have a story time charm to them and I appreciate it a lot.
You couldn't throw enough alcohol my way to have me fucked up enough to edit some shit like this with cringey ass emo screamo edits from a video that aint even relevant even in memes anymore the way that Ben did. Crazy. Thank you, even years later, for this version.
Gonna save this....I enjoy Ben's subtle edits...like the hot single edit...but I'm so used to the 3 space quest games being so chill. The official upload just ruined the vibe Dan usually goes for. Thank you so much for doing this! ✌️❤️
Speaking of subtle edits, he had a 'good' edit at the beginning of the original video, 8:06 one of the ads, on the right its "HOT LOCAL SINGLES want to PLUNDER YOUR ASS Click here" which a picture of Dan just smiling
“I know this is very peaceful, and I hope you haven’t fallen asleep yet” Honestly, I wouldn’t blame Ben if he did. Dan’s voice in theses play throughs is like a pillow and blanket for my ears ☺️
just popping in to say thank you for uploading this. I've been having some trouble sleeping recently and this video always helps. it's the perfect mix of chill and interesting to keep my mind from wandering too much (as it often does). Thanks! And to anyone reading this, I hope you have a calm and restful night :)
Good job with this edit. I've never watched Game Grumps in my life, but those tween pandering edits would've ruined it, and Dan seems like a likable guy.
I honestly like some of Ben's edits I wasn't too sure about him when he first joined the channel, but I wanted to give him a chance. Everything he did was okay he wasn't Kevin and he certainly wasn't Barry, but I thought he was doing a pretty good job. And then this episode came out and his edits were so jarring that it caught me off guard. I enjoy a lot of his edits after this but this particular video it just felt was ruined. I'm not good with computers or editing or anything like that, so I couldn't do this myself and I would like to say thank you for your effort Chris Stevens, you are very appreciated.
Ben’s edits minus the first few in Twilight Princess were usually subtle or chill. I don’t understand why he would put bad screamo memes for cuts… in a sierra game with solo Dan… AND SO MANY
Definitely happy to have this version available. I'm not gonna shit all over Ben like some folks. I get that he was trying to interject some of his personality into original video...but he absolutely read the situation incorrectly. Maybe he was trying to break up a playthrough he thought was dragging; and wanted to give it some oomph... But yeah...no. This edit is exactly what a Dan only video should be. Just Dan and the audience. That's all we want.
I hadn't seen the original video but this one was recommended to me and the nostalgia hit me like a ton of bricks. I played this game 30+ years ago with my sister, I was 12. We later played the other KQ games up to V but this was my first and will always be my favorite. It was revolutionary for its time and as little girls who enjoyed video games when it wasn't socially acceptable for us to, we were thrilled it had a female protagonist. It was also an escape during a very dark time in my life. I can't tell you how many times I fell to my death on those stairs and the path to Lolotte's castle😅I am a bit disappointed he didn't get caught by the goons and get the bad ending where she had to marry Edgar though 😂 Anyway thank you for the edit, reading the comments I wouldn't be able to enjoy the original video 🤨
What in god's name made Ben think that blasting cringe-core periodically throughout a chill, casual, story-telling style video was funny or entertaining?
By the law of PewDiePie, being loud is what the audience wants. Add an excessive amount of unnecessary swearing and throw some death threats followed by "it's just a joke". Bam! Yore winner!
The game that introduced me to the King's Quest series and got me hooked on the entire series. These games will always have a special place on my heart. When I first played it, I only had a green monochrome screen.
Found those playthroughs a few days ago when I was feeling really bad. I put them on in the background to help me fall asleep and distract me from my thoughts and it worked so good! Until Bens edits came around. Those edits just take you out of the comfort that Game Grumps is. So many people have a personal connection to grumps and when you watch a video of them it feels more like hanging out with friends and those edits are just unnecessary and make you uncomfortable..
To me, Ben's humour is usually incredibly obnoxious in a one tack kind of way, it seems typically hit or miss. He just needs to learn when it's not needed, such as Danny's solo playthrough.
I literally love you for this. Not literal like the hip kids meaning figurative. Literal like take my love and appreciation. I can't believe it took me a year to realize someone had done the work of an angel
Youre the best :) Thank you! I really dont know what those edits were about, they were REALLY annoying. Some of them are kinda funny, but mostly they are really gross and childish. Like doing a little picture of a dildo on the zelda item screen is like kinda funny, but like...the audio stuff NEVER works. Eeeevveeerrrr. Its always a huge distraction that makes me want to not watch anymore.
I don’t think I’ve seen the og post, what exactly happened? Ik Ben is incompetent at best especially when it comes to the ordering of series episodes and backtracked any actually fun edits Matt and Ryan did and Ben is a weird guy overall but how’d he plague it so bad?
@@johnnyboykidman3287 Basically the OG playthrough had random moments with edgy, loud "screamo" (can hardly call it that, it was just some edgy teen screaming Fuck Yous, literally). Which was the entire opposite of the calm nature of the episode.
Thank freaking god... I just found this and I can finally enjoy this at night without that fuckhead Ben ruining what otherwise is a fantastic sleeping aid. The whole controversy aside, he really is the worst editor GG has ever had. Not everyone has to be Barry, but ffs look at what you are editing before inserting whatever the hell that crap was
Thank you so much. The Sierra playthroughs are always so chill and great sleep aids but Ben was horrifically tone deaf when editing this video in particular.

He often lets the game interrupt his description of something because he knows that’s the best way to show the game. I have to say I really appreciate it.
It feels like he’s reading a choose your own adventure fantasy book as I drift off to sleep on his shoulder all bundle up in a nice comfy blanket ☺️
Was rewatching the Dan only playthroughs and found a comment leading me here. Thank you very much for making this! Literally couldn't take Ben in this one.
Finally, a watchable version.
Thanks for editing out those shitty loud edits and kept it all chill.
Downloading this video and throwing away that old version.
I can listen to dan all chill forever.
Was literally thinking "wow, I wish I could watch this chill playthrough without Ben's edits". Thank you for saving me the time!!
I almost forgot about the Ben edits. Thank you for giving me a chance to forget them for real.
Thank you so much! Now I can fall asleep to this playthrough like I do the Space Quest 1-3 runs. You're the bees knees!
Fully why I’m here
God bless, I don’t really begrudge Ben for trying to be funny. I just happen to have intense panic attacks; so the jarring edits rendered this video unwatchable for me on the main channel.
It’s amazing to fully relax and watch my favorite Grump playing one of my favorite games as many times as I like without worry. Thank you.
Time to re watch this masterpiece, thank you again for the edit ❤
This was the very, very first computer games I ever played. My dad would let me play in his office when he had to bring me to his work on the weekends. Nostalgia overload!
For me that was halo 1 and 2 for some reason
This video has been such a comfort for me these past few years when I've been stuck at home very sick. Thank you for making this 💜
I have watched the original video all of one time. This edited version: regularly to fall asleep to. Thanks for this! I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt frustrated by the intrusive and loud edits inserted originally.
bless u for this... ben really dropped the ball on this one
Thank you very much for this edit. Normally I have no problem with Ben's editing, I usually think he's pretty fun and playful, but this attempt seemed pretty tone deaf and the Sierra play throughs are quiet time for me.
Couldn't have said it better. The edits were just a big misstep this time.
I just found this, and thank you so much. The horrifying edits in the original episode took away from the game play so much. I always go to the Sierra Game playthroughs to chill out and the edits on this one was complete shite.
Thanks for making this. This is my go to for falling asleep
Thank you for stopping Ben
Thank you for this. I've found myself watching the Grumps less and less ever since they hired Ben.
You've done the lords work with this lol. I absolutely hated Ben's edits every time I watched. I cant thank you enough!
thank you so much for making this! Finally I can watch this video without constant fear of a heart attack, if I do accidentally fall asleep to it.
you are the hero we needed, but not the one we deserved
Finally de-Benned. I wish the grumps would do this to their entire channel.
Hahaha, necessary. One can only hope, but seeing how well they listen to their fans, he'll likely be around for a long time...

“I know this is very peaceful, and I hope you haven’t fallen asleep yet”
Honestly, I wouldn’t blame Ben if he did. Dan’s voice in theses play throughs is like a pillow and blanket for my ears ☺️
I went to look for this instead of leaving a nasty comment on the other one because I never ever want Dan to think I'm mad at him 🥺
Thank you for a chiller Dan solo video
just popping in to say thank you for uploading this. I've been having some trouble sleeping recently and this video always helps. it's the perfect mix of chill and interesting to keep my mind from wandering too much (as it often does). Thanks!

I adore these solo dan videos they are so relaxing
This is so peaceful. Its like if Bob Ross played video games. And also made lewd jokes sometimes
May Chris Stevens be remembered and celebrated for his excellence.
Thank You.

you are the hero we didn't know we needed
Sleep well, friends
What in god's name made Ben think that blasting cringe-core periodically throughout a chill, casual, story-telling style video was funny or entertaining?
It's probably the same infantile mindset that made him think it was ok to creep on minors, I guess.
By the law of PewDiePie, being loud is what the audience wants. Add an excessive amount of unnecessary swearing and throw some death threats followed by "it's just a joke". Bam! Yore winner!
This is my favorite intro ever. "Daaaaaaaaannnnnn" slays me every time. Love your solo stuff and music!
The game that introduced me to the King's Quest series and got me hooked on the entire series. These games will always have a special place on my heart. When I first played it, I only had a green monochrome screen.
No hate towards Ben, but thanks for doing this! these are one of my favorite playthroughs and I treasure them very much.
My favorite part of Sierra games was falling off of ledges that were almost impossible to navigate. Wait no, the opposite of that.
I legit hate Ben’s edits and I was hoping someone would do this ♥️ you’re an answer to a prayer lol 🤗
I really don't like Ben and his """"style"""". Thanks for making this.
this is my go to on nights where I can’t sleep.
You're a life and sleep saver

2:06:53 reading that tomb... seidlitz powder. that's a laxative. Not many would know.
The scream cuts in the original were rude and disrespectful to the viewer.
Saints be praised, this is exactly what I needed
Thank you!! Really hate that Ben made the video so much worse to sleep to ;-;
Notice that this video has 0 dislikes.
Arin and ben disliked it
You're doing God's work son, thank you
Thanks for this, you did a great job.
Hey its that guy who makes danny reacts to things
Coming back to this one. Thanks again!
Thanks for making this. Ben's edits are soooo annoying
holy fuck i work at a comfort inn and i was listening to this while working
THANK YOU. SERIOUSLY.
My hero.
I absolutely love ben, but yeah, I don't know why he chose those edits.
Oh my god you rock Stevens! Thanks man
Thank You, so much for fixing this.
Dan’s voice is so calming, almost like Bob Ross.
Dan’s definitely the Bob Ross of gaming
Thank you. I appreciate this.
I love you thank you for making this.
Thank you for this awesome edit! Appreciated!

Thank you!!!!
Im not saying editing ross in here would be perfect but dang I miss the teamwork those two had while playing kings quest!

thank you
thank you so much dude
revisiting this - it's so nice
Thank you for this.
Been, I love you, but your edits need to fit the atmosphere and theme of the videos.
Omg this is wonderful, thank you man
I love you so much- I hope you are blessed with 100 years of good luck and fortune
Thank you truly appreciate this
Thank you for making this a thing, Ben's edits were not only cringy but unnecessarily annoying.
I hope he never edits again.
Thank you
Thank you so much!!!!! This is so important to me!!!!
Godspeed my good dude
Oh thank god someone 🙏 🙌 finally did it. I hated ben for ruining this playthru
Thank god. I actually like ben's edits a lot but this one was just tone deaf as fuck. Someone toss this is the good playlists
Thank you!
F3 - repeats the last command unless I am wrong on this particular Sierra Title.
You are a saint.
Did tbe other grump die?
Ahh you are amazing
Seidlitz powder is a laxative, so it's saying she shit so hard she died! 😂
But realoy I think it's saying she put it in water like alkiseltzer and didn't wait for it to dissolve before drinking it.
Thank you, I'll un-favorite the original with its shitty edits and replace it with this! You're the best! :D
