For anyone wondering, yes this is STILL from the recording batch during release week. But this is also the last of it. When you start seeing Outlaw Tribes, Slaughter Tribes, #Gravewalker Difficulty etc. you'll know we're in the modern day but back then, none of those existed.
(Yeah, but real talk a mo) I know there's all likelihood to be a good chunk of people who scream "RIPOFF!" in the comments so lemme just beat y'all to the punch. I know I'm not the glorious man himself, I ain't trying to be. Doesn't change the fact I've seen people decry many a decent Shadow Of Mordor video for being a knock-off even when they weren't trying to be. Thus, I, another English shouty (admittedly less graphic-ish) bloke looking to experiment with edited content knew I was going to get a smack with that old hammer too. So why fight it? There was no way to pass this up, but to do the joke properly I had to embrace the knockoff and help Tallioon to his true destiny! To be, THE DISCOUNT RANGER! Congrats! You're a wraith, banished from death! But someone else has already been owning that gig for years, now what? And the narrative just writes itself :D
So instead, go celebrate the return of our Mordor lord. The T to the O to the amazing G! (Yes, that's Tearofgrace for you folks at the back, who somehow still keep missing this and think either I don't know or am however trying to "get away" with something under the radar). Link in the endcard and description. Peace y'all! For on this day, The #DiscountRanger rides for Mordor!
Other than that. I hope you enjoy this satire story of shameless knock-off as it revels in the ripping! :D That said I didn't want to steal the WHOLE style (e.g. bad joke cutaways, screams etc.) - the older more sedate (but still dramatic) SoM-era style was the aim. Plus there's a growing amount of "me" in here as time goes by since, well, we're different dudes.
TLDR; cut a guy some slack eh? :)

Not especially exciting: But what could we expect? We could only live in the past for so long.
Onword! To a new age!
I look forward for the Difficulty Whiplash that comes with the removal of the paid Lootbox store and, and the Great Reballencing of Moredoor.
Now, past is gone.
What's left is the future...
@@Koboldbard nemesis is baby mode. *slowly pans to gravewalker*
Indeed. Having recorded (though it’s not yet edited) the later post-archive parts on SoW in the present day when Gravewalker exists. I can fully confirm that it’s pain. For my own personal level it’s too much and becomes a detriment to the Nemesis system overall, which has always thrive in the odd sweet spot between punishing and overpunishing. But obvs everyone’s mileage may vary.
I WILL say tho that Gravewalker should’ve had an impact on whether uruk stay dead as often or not. Would’ve been nice to see more revives and returns for the trouble
Audio recorded: 2017
Actually uploaded: 2021
*Actually* uploaded: Jan 2022
Indeed. Couldn’t resist leaving that in :)
"And here we see a younger, more vibrant Edperor doing his best to assemble and lead an army of orcs. As many of you may know, Orcs of Mordor are notoriously more difficult to control than a bag of cats plucked from a stream. The results speak for themselves... And over here..."

Good video, Ed. Looking forward to more.
Only took 4 years
Yup, 4 years, 3 house moves, 2 new jobs, a death in the family, 2 attempts to join 'em, multiple hiatuses, an entire different series that got a sudden time-gate put on it, a pandemic, a failed engagement, a channel re-design. Been a wild time lol :D
@@EditEdward But the episode still got finished!
@@EditEdward And yet you gave it all the finger and hung in there. Good on you, mate. Glad to have you back.
Ologs are all Australia, Darren.
Daz cannot be shamed, cannot be broken, does not know fear and will fight you until either you or he dies.
That's a true a Son of Mordor.
also, thanks for the upload. looking forward to more.
Fucking hell mate, despite the 's-bend tier guarding' comment, I'm too old to be laughing at fart jokes like this!
Seriously though, it's always great to see videos from you. You're genuinely entertaining to listen to and the effort put in makes them genuinely enjoyable.
0:45 - *_"All I'm surrounded by is fear. Fear and dead Uruk fat!"_*
Oh boy it's 4 AM!
Hello, OverEnglishMan, good to have you back. Or rather, it's good to be back to your channel. For some reason haven't seen anything from you in 5 years. I would say it's because YT randomly unsubbed me from your channel, but evidently I'm still subscribed so who knows why. When this video came up I was confused at first: "Is this guy for real? Is he a copycat of OEM? Knock-off Discount Ranger? What kind of Black Friday Twilight Zone crap is this?" And then I realised that it's still you, just after a bit of... rebranding. Binged this entire series over the last few days and what a blast from the past that was, reminder of simpler and happier times.
"actually uploaded: 2021"
Yeah, I hate to break this to you pal but uh...
Yes, that is, indeed, the joke.
Yasssssssssss
The legend has returned with a new video!
2:22 ..uploaded 2021...well that aged well xD.
Hey Ed! It'll be interesting to see how the 2018(?) footage will go. Thanks for the video!
Present day huh? Will you be starting with Talion having the mother of all hangovers? Or just wondering how it took 4 years to revive this time?
The Tower persona is actually one of the best examples of how Monolith didn't really quite think those special personalities through - the other big one that comes to my mind is the Unashamed. Both of those personalities' shtick is that they're clearly set up to be antagonists to Talion, but this flies out the window pretty easily because neither have Iron Will, meaning they CAN be recruited - at which point they keep yelling the same voice lines, but stop making sense because they're now on YOUR side. This is why the Tower keeps yelling "RANGER" - he literally doesn't have any voice lines that aren't aimed at Talion.

Here's the first highlight of 2022, Mark it!
Fun times have come around once again
Daz could be an Aussie shortening of the the name Darrel. Baz could be Barry and Gaz would be Garry. Other ways would be adding za to the end of their names so Bazza, Gazza and Dazza. As for Bruz, I'm assuming they did the thing to Bruce
Bruisey~
Hey mate, I love what you do, it is a true inspiration. Being an English content creator must be tough. I know we're not always the most popular but I love what you do. While the times between uploads is understandable I'd love to help out. Such as the community of Prod's: Dark Souls Series' I've always liked Mr Samuel Stream for Rimworld content but having for games such as Xcom and 'Of Mordor' has been a delight to watch and learn from. Don't give up
I don’t give up, I just get slowed down :).
Some creators get lightning strikes.
Some have to grab a pick and start digging. We get whatever done in the end though. Even if it takes forever.
And hey. Still faster than Littlekuriboh lol
@@EditEdward Who?
"Your fat rolls?" I laughed. :)
Heeey, a new video! Can't wait for more to come!
Boy am I early. Welcome back, sir!
So now we start seeing the most recent of over british rages? Time to clean the spider webs from the watching chairs cause we are in for a ride
The war chief from the intro was very beloved.
Today is now a good day.
@1:20 "you couldnt come up with anything better than Daz"
Me: 🥺
You're outside the "Az" naming scheme. i.e. Baz Gaz Daz. Just another option ala "Raz" might have suited better and not evoked a cleaner lol
It's time to get back!
Gotta get back
Long live the Edpire!
Will the break make the Discount Ranger's skills atrophy further, or will the fresh start strengthen him?
Hmmm... When (let's be honest, if :p) you ever finish one of these series, have you considered playing Bloodborne? You seem to have enjoyed the other Souls games (from my shoddy memory) and, well, mister Miyazaki said that it was his favorite game to work on. I think that both you, I and many others will enjoy it.
Unless you've already played it, in which case... Eh.
I'm unlikely to go anywhere near Bloodborne or the other PS-Exclusives. I don't have disposable funds to buy one and the one I used to share with my fiancee left with her. No bloodborne for me beyond a couple of DS3 mods I'm afraid haha
@@EditEdward Fair enough. I guess that we'll have to wait until Bloodborne gets ported to PC during the next decade or so...
@@EditEdward (Reposting this as a separate comment because you didn't seem to see it.)
Unless... Hmm... Do you have some form of donation method available? I'm sure that there are people willing to donate the funds for one, and if all else fails, I alone have enough money stored to buy several dozen ps4 consoles.
@@platogkrone7161 His Patreon link is in the video's description!
@@vaspeter2600 Ah, I see. However, the purpose is to fund a specific endeavour, so I'd rather send money directly to his bank account than give anything to Patreon. It's a waste.
It's currently 12:15 in the morning but fuck sleep, let's watch The Discount Ranger wreck shop. 🥰👌 As certain Orcs like to say: "Lucky us!!"
I hope you find another Tasty Edit:Ed for after watching you I wanted to play more shadow of war and found my tasty. But he says blood and bloody Hes form the slaughter tribe what can I say.
Guess who's back?
He’s on his way. Just gotta figure how I wanna address the erm…ending as it is.
I don’t like the game’s one, so I have some writing and work to do lol
I got you to 420 likes... your welcome.
Much obliged
