"We've never done a bald one before"
How soon we forget Squirting Turtle Man.
CHRISTOPHER CHRISTOPHER CHRISTOPHER CHRISTOPHER
D BOMB
Randy Johnson was balding
Also, Dick Chaney if that counts, wasn't really a monster
Blake Thomas So was Trash Hulk.
monster factory jumps straight into uncomfortably relatable territory this week as a sad tired ugly boy just wants to be a cute anime cat person
jorts apologist Your screen name is perfection.
Unlike us, he achieves this dream because in Final Fantasy magic is real
fucking relatable
"ev-ry body wants to be a cat"
jorts apologist Don't say that, Cid is a sweet boy.
“i wanna be a cat man!” he cried, “make me a cat man!” but the cat masters did not answer they just kept on cat-ing
I just love this comment so much XD
"How was that potion you drank?" "It was cool, I turned into a cat, my birthday changed, and i stopped believing in God! It was a good potion! My name is Cid Finalfantasy and I don't know who i am anymore..." had me in absolute hysterics
Like #999 Let's break that 1k y'all
your reaction to being able to name him Cid Finalfantasy is exactly how my friend and i felt when we named our characters Nintendo Gamecube and Mariokart Doubledash
Lmao amazing. My world is famfrit and I once saw someone named "minfilias underwear"
im not here for this squirtle erasure. hes bald and the sexiest zombie man alive
Kate Sharpenter i read this right when Griffin said they've never done a bald one before
And D-bomb! You can't forget the original fallout mum!
i came here to say this exact same thing
Damn straight. #LandSquirtleForever
I IMMEDIATELY thought "what the fuck about Squirtle???" How did they forget the very first boy in all of his perfection??
"never done a bald before" D-BOMB WILL REMEMBER THIS ERASURE
Cassidy Clement dont forget the pebble
And Squirtle...
I love how even with a Bad Character Creator That Doesn't Let You Do Good Things to Faces, the McElroys manage to Do Good Things to Faces.
Writing on Games i love how i always find you on polygon videos and it's really nice to see good good video essayists having a nice time watching comedy jokes and or mcelroy content
It's really nice how you appreciate me having a Good Good Time With Content
The FFXIV character creator actually makes it pretty hard to make an ugly character, tbh.
Writing on Games Your random capitalization bothers me more than it should...
Jacob Tangen it’s not random.
Tip to toe that's Bart Simpson's mom for a minute
spenstarr I upvoted this because you told me to
Zac What love the love
She's a TV mom whose hair is large!
They are the new Marge Men now!
Take it to the bank boys, that's a Marge!
Justin saying "yeah this seems like a good way to spend your limited time on earth" to someone crafting in FFXIV, as I literally was crafting in FFXIV, and had been happily doing so for like a week, has wounded me emotionally in an unexpectedly deep way :(
Emily Scott lull
Emily Scott I CAN COOK THE BEST MEAL IN THE GAME JUSTIN! Yea, it took 4 weeks to get to that level, and yea I'm bankrupt from buying the ingredients from the market board bc I'm too lazy to go to the one vendor that sells them, but damn it it's cool!
Pffft. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!
If you enjoy it, it IS a good way to spend your time.
"Chase your bliss."
i just noticed that when you can see griffin’s full character list, his first characters name is henry 🥺
🥺
the entire first half of creating this boy he looked like a really tired groose
Cid Finalfantasy combines two of my favorite aesthetics: cats and pompadours
Nate Malaqui Are you me?
I kinda love how into the cat girl they got after just intending to make her as a joke.
Susan crushbone and generic anime furry girl are girlfriends and this is the only wlw representation I've ever wanted
Elizabeth i might draw this tbh
Everyone is Susan Crushbone's girlfriend.
Meow Susan is polyamorous and all of her lovers are completely accepting and supportive of this because they are all consenting and in love
No Susan and Melissa are OTP
Elise Preedy mëlissa is dating knife dad’s gay daughter and they are in a loving relationship
"hey how was that potion"
"OH IT WAS GREAT I TURNED INTO A CAT MAN AND MY BIRTHDAY CHANGED AND I STOPPED BELIEVING IN GOD"
In this episode of Monster Factory, the real monster was the HUD.
you so right, somehow the altered HUD they made was easier to parse
7:35... that voice. Jenkins, it may allow you to cast potent magics, but you have to be willing to burn a spell slot so we all know you won't do it.
I have literally been looking through the comments to see if anybody thought that as well

am i allowed to say something? cids kinda hot for a guy with his brain exposed
youre not allowed to say things.
westley van der bijl imma need you to log out for me
...they made Josuke even more fabulous
Griffin: "Problem is, I'm sort of into Susan Crushbone territory"
Justin: "...Who?"
pocoloki i cannot believe this
pocoloki how dare u hurt me like this.... I'm having TAZ flashbacks
this comment implies that justin and susan crushbone are identical twins
lexa sedman arent they???
Sorry to disturb you folk, just letting you know that this is canon now.
I can confirm that Cid Finalfantasy, the lvl2 Arcanist still exists in Malboro.
so so very good cid finalfantasy is my favorite jojo character
Watching you run around with your UI all rearranged like that made me feel physically ill...
I could feel the layout trying to pull my soul out of my corporeal form
I'm living for the Susan Crushbone callback
RIP Robert Downey Jr. Jr. X-3175-Beta. (2017-2017)
You were too impure for this world.
Take it to the bank boys, this one's just like Mondo
garbage oowada
I was gonna say-
That was my first thought lol
[STAND USER] SAD WIZARD BOY
This series is the true form of [SCARY MONSTERS]
squirtle isn't bald, he's a turtle, turtles don't have hair. d-bombs baldness was a result of their manipulation of her head, and it's a bald spot not full baldness, the pebble is a clone of the rock and the baldness wasn't left up to them. if we're talking about CREATING a bald monster, it hasn't been done.
Caffene adult d-bomb had a fully shaved head, does that count as bald?
DICKOLAS????
"The helmet gives me plus two intellect but it destroys my forebrain" -- should have named him Phineas Mage
this is absolutely genius and an underrated commend
GET OUT. that pun is unacceptable
BEST COMMENT HANDS DOWN.
9:44 That little boy looks like Clint Mcelroy
Jacob The Loofah he do
And Travis, who just looks like Clint
“We’ve never done a bald before, I don’t think” the eldest child never gets the recognition they deserve. Ahh, poor Squirtle
For those of you who have seen Space Dandy, this guy is literally depressed Dandy.
The music from the beginning is the same music used in The Final Pam's title card and I actually got chills
It's Final Fantasy music lol
" we've never done a bald before I don't think"
How DARE you forget squirtle
I don't get why Justin and Griffin don't like cutscenes in Monster Factory: it's the best opportunity to showcase the character, and just talk over/ recontextualise the story!
"I do want to put as much shit on this child's face as we possibly can." - Griffin Mcelroy 2017
They literally just made Mondo Owada, I'm dying
goldstarsupreme Omg. I love you.
goldstarsupreme they made his alternate clone, a perfect version of Mondo
It turns out all Mondo ever wanted was to become a sweet, sweet cat boy! If he would've just met Ibuki then nobody would've had to die!
nah bro this hairstyle is my boy Josuke
Josuke, you meant josuke, not that horrible badly written character from that badly written anime called Danganronpa.
The hair colors at 4:50 make me want to buy this game and RP a Pepe LePew character.
TIL Justin McElroy doesn't know what a pompadour is
“As if you couldn’t get any sadder...you’ve absorbed The Smiths”
I don't think Cid Finalfantasy is my favorite monster factory baby, but he has one of the most compelling life stories of them all for sure.
JoJo's Bizarre Final Fantasy
Whats your profile picture from? Or who's the artist
@@Phthaloblue2 it's been a year but that's bee from bee and puppy cat, a really cute and good channel frederator show that has had like 7 episodes with a bunch of story and then basically they just stopped making videos they're on youtube
it's been a whole month without Monster Factory
time to binge-watch all the old episodes, cry, and die
"I could make a religion out of this." No, don't.
How did this happen?
Connor Shea knock knock who's there? it's final fantasy
New jingle for Monster Factory: "That's a human person!"
it wouldnt be as bad as scientology
"Hey, there, it's me, your old pal Louie Anderson! Don't make a religion out of me! Just kidding - DO"
I'm thrilled Griffin mentioned the Jojo thing but I thought I would just mention it again cause damn that boy's a Josuke
Headcanon: RDJJ-X3175-β is actually a disguised Ango on a deep cover mission
I really want to see someone make a character creation that lets you set it to oscillate between two or more settings, so like your character can be a constantly fluctuating mass of contortionist beauty
Many months after this video's conception, I really wish Griffin just phantasia'd his character to that cool ass catgirl
Watching this after playing endwalker is just so much funnier
there are more kiritos and uchihas then sephiroths tbh
Doodle Burr So. Many. Kiritos. And they are all really really bad.
got hit on by a uchiha once. the perils of playing a catgirl
I like how there's a solid 5 minutes where, despite their best efforts, this man looks like a legitimate anime character
Until they add the cat whispers
All of them look like they could be real anime characters, like this could be an adventuring party
I’m hurt as a ffxiv player but as I monster factory fan I’m living my best life
cid finalfantasy and i have the same birthday omg throw the jojoke out the window ive discovered my long lost twin brother
NO YOU CHANGED HIS BIRTHDAY MY BROTHER
I s t h i s g a m e s e t i n v a m p i r e t i m e s ?
as a teeny tiny transman i wish we would have played with robert downy jr jr becuase i would have D E S T R O Y E D that as a cosplay
do it anyway
i hope you got to be tiny robert downy jr jr!!!!!!!!!!
You’re more powerful than them, it would be unfair to every Robert Downey
As another tiny transman, I sincerely hope you have cosplayed Robert Downey jr jr these past two years
Dooo it doooo it doooo it
is THAT a M o th e r f u c kin g JOJO REFERENC E?
it's a very subtle game of Spot the Difference
Griffin even said it was a JJBA simulator at some point, lol
Josuke's Final Adventure
MLGSkittleNinja なに？！？！
there it is
Griffin made both a Jojo's reference *and* a History of the Entire World I Guess reference in one video. I couldn't be more proud.
9:22 griffin mcelroy, moments before writing angus mcdonald into the adventure zone
9:56 He's practically Guy Fieri without the frosted tips and I love this boy.
16:28 oh, so hes a prospit dreamer
Cid Finalfantasy is best Jojo.
The Steele looks like someone hasn't read the manga
That hair is not at all Crazy, It's really cool like a Diamond
magnus would've eaten the crystal
Aubrey would’ve eaten the crystal
zoox would’ve eaten the crystal
I can’t believe Cid Finálfantásy predicted Aubrey’s storyline in TAZ Amnesty
"A Heathcliff out of Garfield."
Nice foreshadowing.
"We've never done a bald before, I don't think."
(Squirtle sheds a single tear, forgotten)
Cid Finalfantasy is a depressed middle age man who wants to be a cat boy and travels to obtain a potion that will let him achieve his dreams. However to use the potion he must consume a cat-girl's soul essence so he underwent surgery to allow his body to absorb anime girls but as side affect his brain had to be moved upwards. He quests alongside Robert Downey Jr. Jr., a small child clone of Robert Downey Jr. who was deemed a failure by the factory and killed but was then Isekaied into final fantasy world. They are also joined by a cool anime girl that Cid was saving for later but was caught off guard by her sheer coolness energy and a sentient mickey mouse glove that is always pointing at either the moon or Cid's brain and they don't know which. Another problem is that Cid can't distinguish cat-girls from regular anime girls so he just absorbs every anime girl unfortunate enough to cross his path.
Josuke and Crazy Diamond
9:43 they made small clint
He looks so much like Mondo Oowada!
This is the entire reason I clicked this video.
9:20 you made Angus how I see him this is amazing Im so happy now steal his neck warmer and sell it
"For once, we try to make something beautiful."
All your creations are beautiful.
at 7:30 Griffin started using Jenkins' voice, this is now how I will always picture him.
"There's nothing funnier than a child with a beard" 12:18
yup
i’m laughing; griffin was definitely going to say a part of the brain but remembered that he couldn’t get it
My heart broke with Justin's when Griffin let that Crushbone callback slip out
22:30 is Aubrey and the crystal
Scrolled all the way down for this.
Cid looked just as happy as Griffin sounded when he realized his name got cleared.
*_DUDE I PLAY ARCANIST AND MY CHARACTER IS JUST TAAKO AND I SAW SMITH IN THE TAVERN AND I SAID "PRETTY GOOD IT DOESNT SEEM, HUH THE SMITHS??"_*
Atleast we still have you, Monster Factory.
at minute 2 when they remove the facial hair he immediately becomes a pixel-perfect groose! from skyward sword! i dont know how to feel about this!
I am 1000% excited to see you play this game that I spend so much time in.
man id like them to make a gw2 monster factory. although theyd mostly just have to go with either a charr or an asura... tbh you can make some fucked up lookin asuras lol me and my friend each have an asura necro and the difference in their appearance was perfectly described by said friend: "your asura looks like she became a necromancer to resurrect her cute, beloved pet... mine just looks like he loves the smell of corpses..."
The reason why i'm subscribed to Polygon
4:45 - I appreciate the old crow laugh
Greato Daze!
DAVENPORT!
It's bootleg Mondo Oowada, holy shit. Or bootleg Kuwabara.
Fun fact this video is partially responsible for me starting to play ffxiv good job boys
it's been such a long time since i last cried from laughter and had to pause a video just to catch my breath. i feel like my tummy is getting a workout just from watching this.
Easily the best monster factory...mainly cause I love this game so dearly,I easily relate to a lot of this
I love how he references JJBA and he picked what looks like Josuke’s Hair style for the character.
I think Cid Finalfantasy's new birthday is his transformation day
That feel when The Boys pick your hairstyle for a Monster Factory character
THAT FEEL WHEN YOU KEEP WATCHING AND THEY'VE MADE YOUR FUCKING CHARACTER tinypic.com/r/2lub6uu/9
"This is a good way to spend your limited time on Earth" - what I think of whenever watching youtube.
"How was the potion?" "It was great! I became a cat person, my birthday changed, and I stopped believing in god! Life is swell!"
Robert Downey Jr Jr, Rat Baby, and Garettttttttttttt are all in a high fantasy Nordic folk band and they all love each other very much.
