    FUCK yes, this is what I need right now.

    As someone who never had these type of play times as a kid I have second hand nostalgia.

    "Fetch quests are the best quests."
    Absolutely based. Many of the greatest games ever have ultimately been Fetch quests. Many of the greatest stories as well.

      there is a difference though, between using a fetch quest as a framework, or if fetching things is all you do

    This game is so wholesome and realistic at the same time.... I do sometimes miss my childhood

      So you too skated of the side of mountaines to then pop out your dad's sweater and glide across the valley? Not gonna lie, I'm kind of jealous.

    17:08 God this brings me back. My childhood was all about the ones that looked like a castle, like the ones at Culzean and Crieff Hydro, where you and a group of random children would form a group abd either try to attack or defend from another group of kids.

    Jumps over the lava only to immediately enter the lava in the cutscene. That really says a lot about our brains not willing to stick to the rules.

    Man, Jon sensed the tragedy even before Alinkgator's friend drowned in the lake and everything changed.

    As someone who loves Avril Lavigne so much, I'm surprised that Jon didn't make the title of the video "He was a gator boy".

    • @LillyP-xs5qe
      @LillyP-xs5qe Рік тому +1

      It's because the lil gator is canonically non binary, rewatch it, play the game, they never state the gender of the lil gator! Always they/them

    Absolutely love the soft, jazz piano music floating underneath most of the game - as well as the frequent "topical" music when you're interacting with another person's theme/interest.

    Jon, you really should make a playthrough of a game called Darkwood, its one of the best horror games out there, with no jump scares, and that requires planning, i think you would enjoy it :)

      Also "Little Kitty Big City" which doesn't have a release date yet but I hope it will be some point in 2023. A game where you are a little kitty and you explore the city doing kitty things as you find your way back home.

    Day 926 of requesting Zoo Tycoon. It ain't Elden Ring, but in many ways, that's the good thing. Fun doesn't always need to be as deep as the Challenger Deep - sometimes a gator is enough

      No. It was on his poll last year for a series but lost against Oblivion and XCOM2.
      No idea why he hasnt even tried it,, especially with the upcoming sequel. Only mentioned he fell out of the franchise with TP and SS being disappointing entires for him.
