With every passing interaction, Greg becomes slightly more unhinged.
He’s been unhinged for a while now 😂
Considering how he lost his wife and dealing with every other player’s BS (including Baradun’s incessant antics), Greg has reached his breaking point.
Long-term consequences of handling garlic every day.
@@VivaLaDirtLeagueIt was loosing his wife that did it right? That pushed him over the edge?
@@VivaLaDirtLeague I’m interested to see where his story arch is headed
Gotta be the most frustrating thing when you're trying to take a short cut, but instead the NPC just stops and you have to go back and get them 😂
It's even more frustrating when you CAN"T follow NPC cos HE takes a shortcut you are unable to jump trough or there like 3 agrvated hungry bears on path (that will ignore NPC but not that fresh snack - you) or fire etc.
Frea
Glad Skyrim usually have the option for "we will meet there" and they aren't bothered when we abondon the quest midway. In fact theres no way to abandon the quest lol
Imagine how frustrating it is for the npc, who has planned this scenic and you just don’t give a f*ck 😡
Nah, what is worse is when you take perhaps 5 steps ahead of single path available, then they stop to ask that you get back because you are too far from them. So you walk back only to watch them walk to exactly where you were. So stupid.
Greg's grandma dies. Popup appears.
> "With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created."
Gotta love morrowind!
MORROWIND MENTIONED
You just explained a play through of starfield.
Me when killing Vivec;
And the last time you saved was just after the tutorial.
"agh... Shes dead! she died just now" killed me 🤣
"Murder! A crime punishable by death!"
*Greg's heart breaks*
Accept the quest again and the sickly grandma will respawn.
And Greg won’t be angry anymore 😍
@@VivaLaDirtLeague I want to see the one where this happens and he's pissed off the entire time about having to run the quest for the adventurer who's just smug af.
@@VivaLaDirtLeague you'd like to think that..
Player: *Saves Greg's grandma*
Greg: "Thank you, player, for saving my grandmother."
Also Greg: *background turns monotone as Greg stares into the players soul* "But you still let my poor POOR grandma die the first time and that version of her is never coming back."
That's cheating. Roll a new character. That will teach ya
You are free to go wherever you want Adventurer... you can go as far as the length of your leash! 🐕
Just like real life...
"Now bark like a good little adventurer, and you'll get your reward"
*PC whimpers*
Like hiking with my parents! :D (q-q)
I always find it funny the lengths game developers will go to keep people from harmlessly exploring. They'll leave game breaking bugs in the game for years untouched. But some minor exploit to get out of bounds. That's is quickly patched. 😂
Or if there is an unpassable twig on the path - those can't be averted even with a pocket horse
“Well what should I do?! 😢”
Pick up the quest again. Greg’s threats and guilt trips can’t defy the order of all RPGs.
It could be like Witcher series, where it cuts off the quest line or even introduces a new main campaign path, though.
The person who does the subtitles for your videos deserve a raise, his addicional messages are so funny!!
Edit: The whole team behind it deserves!
Shout out to our amazing editing team
Went back to see how they handled it and was not disappointed! Guess I have to watch every VLDL video twice now. What a bummer for me.
**squeak** SENT ME! 🤣🤣🤣
@@Kipagamiyou're gonna love it. It's like replaying a game only to realise you've missed half of it on your first playthrough...
Putting on subtitles for their videos is like finding a hidden easter egg.
The only thing missing was the next scene be the Player heading back to Honeywood, all sullen and crying, only to pass Greg at his Garlic stall and saying "Ah Adventurer...I need you for an urgent quest to save my Grandmother..." like Nothing has happened.
Yeah, I was expecting something like this, lol
Nah, he abandoned that quest. It's gone for good. Along with the subplot where Greg's grandma is actually the head of the dirt league.
@@sambathelionking She probably turns out to be the Grand Archmage Karen...
Indeed, just restart the quest.
after eliminating the Q-fail greg
But Honeywood is very far away.
Dark Greg is finally back and giving out tons of trauma
Now the world is back in balance.
You can tell it's dark Greg because the garlic has a goatee on it.
Got light goosebumps from his aggressive acting 🍷
Nod if you understand
Maybe if Greg's wife hadn't been so cruelly *deleted* Dark Greg wouldn't be the way he is. But we'll never know.
For the types of games I am familiar with , things are usually the opposite. You may be on an urgent quest too save the world, but you still have time too talk to Npc's, explore, complete all the minigames, travel back to your starting town and run around on chocobo's. When you get to your destination, it will always be at just the perfect time to have maximum drama, regardless of how long it actually took. Villian's are very patient and wait for you.
Wholesome villains
Not that way with out of bounds lol
0:54 I really thought this was the kind of out of bounds that kills you if you're there for too long- and I thought that Greg was finally showing his true power of just being able to kill anyone at will if given 5 seconds.
Grag entered his villain arc 💀
Finally!
Greg is actually the final raid boss of all of Skycraft. Shhhhhh....
not quite passive but very aggressive path.
Grag is to Greg as Wario is to Mario...
@@VivaLaDirtLeague Losing Greta really took its toll on him
Truly this is the way forward. No invisible walls blocking your path just an NPC going absolutely feral on your ass if you dare try and leave them.
Would be new lol
Or the NPC try to gently get you back on the path, but if you stray too long or too far the higher level enemies will attack you.
I remember the first Gothic from ages ago had no invisible walls and you could get to pretty much any place on the (comparably small) map.
But if you took a wrong turn and weren't extremely careful, you would run into enemies you had very little chance of beating. And with that I mean they kill you in one hit but you need dozens to kill them. Still possible if you wanted to challenge yourself. Unless there were more than one. Then you were practically dead.
Edit: NPCs would usually either lead the way and stop walking if you strayed too far or follow you wherever you went. Both could get them easily killed.
Because of flying in BG3, Larian marked all hard boundaries as "Chasm" and players quickly learned what "Chasm" meant - even if it was an impassable hillside 💀
Was thinking this - like instead of a timer, just have a huge bear maul you.
It just dawned on me. Greg is like Morty from Rick & Morty.
- traumatized
- mostly kind
- mostly sane
- don't you dare cross him when he had enough
- voice
Yeah that outro was very Rick and Morty
- dead grandmother
Nah.
Luckily that is quest Greg, so normal Greg won’t know about this
Greg has a dark side. He tied up a hero in his burning pub to keep it open, threatened a hero with a knife & now this. Don’t f**k with Greg! 😂😂😂
You forget the uncensored greg
Don’t forget how fast travel works. That’s fairly sinister.
You should watch their DnD game! 😆
skip
That what happens when you gain sentience
Him crying at the end brought at a tear to me eye. Peak acting 👏
I must have a weird side cause I had a chuckle when he cried
also got subtitles
@@lazyboytitan3178 you do know that most comments here are like sarcasm or an over-exaggeration of what that person actually feels right? 💀🤦🏻♀️
Tf
Sounded to me like he was singing.
For a NPC on a quest, Greg was walking far too fast. 1/3rd player speed max
No. 1/3 player run speed but 2x player walk speed.
They always do such a great job of finding really skilled actors.
When Harlekwin do the walk of shame back to Honeywood, asking for Greg's forgiveness, all he will hear is...
"Ah adventurer! Welcome to Honeywood!"
I'd love him to be "Ah, you again."
And then he retakes the quest to save his grandma.
@@Lavourrin Complete with the knowledge that you failed three times before... getting slightly more salty and less emotional with his repeated dialogue each time.
@@plektosgaming Greg isn't aware of previous failures. He's not Sans.
I just love how the subtitles for his crying say "squeak squeak" and "whistle note?"🤣
Starting as a Guest Character (or Debuting) with the words "thanks for having me" - brillant :D
Yeah, I was wondering, "Who is this guy? Is he new, or have I missed too many vids?"
Phoenix: "I dare not stray from the road!"
Oh, my bad, it's "I dare not stray from the road, not path" 😅
[path bends in a U shape] it's quicker if I just cut across here...
[NPC stays put, waiting for me to come back and walk the entire path]
The NPC just needs more time to tell you about some NPC nonsense.
Without his grandma Greg has nothing to lose. We're all in big trouble.
And thus, the saga of _Dark Lord Garlic Farmer_ begins- (oh god that totally sounds like it belongs in the name of an anime 😂).
uh the Garlic farm? can still lose that.
@@dustinherk8124 What if I told you there never was a garlic farm?
He's already lost his wife and child. The man's looking to off the next adventurer.
@@pyredynasty but he's Greg the garlic farmer. not Greg the garlic scalper. buying the town's entire supply and reselling with a large mark up. (thats actually genius though)
Greg has been hanging around Baradun too much 😂😂😂
I love how the adventurer’s more sad about Greg’s grandma’s death while Greg is just pissed 🤣
Greg: "The quest failed, you murderer."
Me: "Oh no!" *reloads from quicksave*
...
Greg: "Hello, adventurer!!! :)"
Greg laughs in *only autosave*.
Mmos don't have "quick save"
@@justanotheryoutubeaccount0 Azerym is some wierd hybrid between an MMO and a single player RPG. They've had characters get caught in bad quicksave mechanics before, like doing it a second after stepping off a cliff.
@@Sigurther fair enough
NPCs are like "This is MY adventure, not yours, 'Adventurer'" **spit**
You should do an episode expanding upon this about breaking the boundaries of the map where the details slowly lose their complexity, and where you might even find, “cut content”? Seeing some NPC trapped outsized the map since launch finally seeing an adventurer after years would be cool.
Wasn't there a game that had all the NPC's "stored" in a room under the map inactive or something so they could be moved into position and activated when needed?
Played by Hamish, I assume?
There was one about stepping out of bounds breaking everything, causing Rowan to slowly sink into the ground and then fly through chaos. Haven't the faintest idea which specific video it was, though... it was definitely in the Ben vs. Rowan compilation.
@@galewin8942 oh yeah I saw that one. I thought it’d be interesting to expand upon it
This reminds me of Zelda TOTK. At one you are on an NPC quest. You are free to leave, but the NPC, named Tulin, tries to guilt trip you into returning. “I’ll just be here waiting” or something like that.
Dark Greg should organize a shame-walk for this "adventurer", so he can learn his lesson. SHAME! SHAME!
With Dark Adam following him and crying
Out of character... unless SOMEONE doesn't invest a single point into Charisma.
must be some frontal lobe damage...
I love the subtitles. It feels you don't get the full experience without them.
i love that Greg just magically knows his grandma died at that very second. Silly omniscient NPCs
Looks like the "Greg with a knife who made players stop skipping his dialogue" is back in the neighborhood.
Nod if you understand...
Along with tavern Greg that kept Adam tied up in the burning flames
*nods* 😨
When you see that warning with five seconds, that’s what real fear is like
Cue Sonic drowning music
I see a countdown, I uninstall
I love the continual consequences of abandoning a quest shown. Would be kinda cool if more games did something like that.
2:03 *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *whistle note*
the subtitile is so amazing XD
I truly appreciate the subtitles. Not every creator goes for that extra step.
whistle note
Nah, that wasn't out of character for Greg.
Nod if you understand. 😆
[nervously nods diligently]
Greg is a Cleric now, he manages these urges usually
It’s my personal head cannon that the events of “NPC D&D” gave Greg D.I.D. And that’s why he snaps and goes OOC from time to time under stress! 😅
Adventuring with Bodger, Bob and Baradun really took a toll on his mental state.
"With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created."
Is that an actual quote? If so, where from?
@@thecrazyinsomniac Morrowind had that quote, don't know if others did.
"Reload to a previous save!"
"This ain't an Elder Scrolls game, bub. Go back to the character creation menu."
@@leyrua Now that's sadism.
@@leyrua No problem, just have to restore a previous save state because the devs were lazy.
Love that Greg is breaking out of his Matrix!
Greg evolving into a Neo type character would be cool!
They could then introduce an Agent Smith type of character to try to bring Greg back into compliance.
So many options!
This needs more up votes
😎
Didn't they kind of already do this with the maintenance skit?
0:58 hand up to show 5 seconds, shows wedding ring. No wonder he's bitter and angry, missing Greta 😞
I think that adventurer has the censor slider at HARDCORE.
Greg's character arc from amok-running sheep owner to sickly-grandma haver is just sublime
He’s still satly that His wife, child, and sheep are still missing, and that someone sold his Grandfather’s Sword.
"you were too busy traversing!" Hahaha amazing delivery
Are any of us really surprised whenever Greg snaps? There's only so much BS a simple garlic farmer can stand.
Harlekwin trying to imitate Adam's cry was gold
Wut? He was imitating Adam? O.o This guy's cry sounded more like a sustained soft squeak, compared to Adams very exaggerated up-and-down in pitch type of cry. Im not trying to be rude, im genuinly wondering if i missed something (my hearing hasn't been the best lately..)
"She's dead! She died just now!"
No, Greg, I'm dead. 🤣
I wonder if Greg will ever remember everything he's been forced to forget... I could totally see him walk up to a boss, unimpressed, he reaches into his own code and makes himself elite and just pwns it, then turns it back down before the devs have a chance to catch on.
I have only one tiny suggestion, that should have unlocked a permanent title for the player "Grandma Killer"
Ghost of Tsushima:
*geT BAcK tO ThIS tAlE RIGHt NoW!*
Cinematic games need to make sure the player watched the cinematic, we can’t allow gameplay in our movies now can we?
@@Ceece20 ghost of tsushima is not the game to criticize for this shit
@@overchipz But I need to grab that bamboo and flower tho.
Player: (Accidently leaves path because he's new to the controls)
Greg: So you have decided to murder my grandmother have you?
His Gramda dies.
Greg : SOUNDS LIKE A YOU PROBLEM!
The code is... malfunctioning guys.
Whether as Alan in Bored or Greg in Epic NPC, whenever Alan goes psycho mode is always a treat to see.
i love how Greg just looks so fkn done with him hahaha "you didn't make shit".
Greg is completely unhinged😂 also bring back the adventurers actor :)
Hey... it's the preseason. Gotta give the benchwarmers some reps to see who makes the final roster 🙂
Greg slowly becoming the Rick Sanchez of Honeywood
greg's evolution that has happened in D&D that is happening in the EPIC NPC skits is both hilarious and really good job of continuity
When the adventurer goes to bury Greg's grandmother with dignity, he can take the opportunity to chat with the grave diggers: they will be able to explain the game mechanics to him ⚙️
Should have had the guard show up after nowhere going “murderer!!” As greg says the blood is on that guys hands 😁
"You there! fuck you!" -- guard Rowan
Better idea: Greg conjures blood onto the guy's hands.
Greg has seen too much. His villain arc will be good.
I lost it when he said, "It sounds like a fucking you problem." 😂😂
* Oh he was serious... * 1:00
Great closed captions with a great music and or sound effects... The humor in these videos is so high... 😂
* Gregs heart breaks * 1:34
Awesome discovery! I guess I need to rewatch the whole playlist again with captions on :p
@alexanderjarde3971 honestly when I realized how much I was missing not having their closed captions on I could have screamed in frustration.
I don't know if they were always this good or if it was a recent thing.
@@CaleAi928they were always this good. Back to the beginning with you! 😈
(Same goes for Bored too 😉)
Greg was out of bounds with that speech.
Nah, the adventurer definitely crossed Greg's boundaries with this one
Get back on the f**kin’ path!!!
@@V3RTIGO222 It was just a joke, played on the skit (and title).
VLDL got it 😋
I'm pretty sure Greg did that to not get replaced by "the plushy"
I was half expecting Greg to summon poppy to shoot the player down.
“I made it, I’m here!”😮💨
😡 “you didn’t make shit!”
😱 brutal! lol 😂 Greg has had enough!!! And he’s not going to take it from these adventurers anymore!!! lol
Greg's line is now my new ringtone. It replaced the Guard's: "You there, Fuck Off!"
@@jeremygilby1455 hahaha that’s awesome!!
this has been one of my absolute favorite Epic NPC man skits YET!!!!
"Don't you dare traverse!" 😂😅 This is by far one of the top ten funniest EPIC NPC MAN videos VLDL has ever produced 🤣. Top notch.
Greg has been drinking too much coffee. Respect the Greg, fear the Greg...
the funniest part was when he said "*squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *whistle note?*"
"oh... he was serious"
Unhinged Greg is okay, unhinged potty mouth Greg, not so much. Greg sets a standard, let everyone else be a sailor mouth.
Greg: You FAILURE!
Adventure: *emotional damage*
New GUY is superb acting
Don't think he's a new cast member. Video description lists him as a guest actor. Milo Cawthorne.
I fully expected him to drop dead after the timer ran out
My favorite is when the escorted NPC slow walks right toward a monster that would be easily evaded, runs at light speed toward the scrum and starts to get completely owned, and then after you save him, runs *back* to where it all started only to slow walk again.
I love it when Greg looses it and breaks character. So amazing
I like how Greg was like "You can go enywhere you want!" Also Greg when you walk 0.0001 inches away from the path...
How is it even possible to have misspelled that?
@@ViirinSoftworks - It's possible to misspell enything if you try.
I don't know who the new actor is but we need more of him ♥♥♥
Gregs accelerating descent into madness (or perhaps slow relevaltion of his already present madness) is one of my favourite things
One of those precious few scenes where Greg lets it all out.
He loves doing it almost as much as we love watching it.
I hate it when I walk away from my friends and their Grandmothers die
I LOVE IT! It's like a little snoo kitten growling for the first time!!! lol
lol “she died just now”😂😂😂😂
I love the new character, his cry at the end was golden . He really felt the guilt 😭
That whole scene where the adventurer tries to hurry back but somehow walking becomes increasingly more difficult it's me in my dreams every time I need to escape or hurry.
Your comment got stolen. The stolen copy currently has 59 likes.
Dark Greg makes me think he would be a great hidden villain of the Skycraft universe
I honestly expected the adventurer to die and lose all of his stuff but he can't get back there to get it.
Greg is losing his sanity knowing he's an NPC in a video game.
"What should i do?"
"Come back later, i have a quest for you. And also the memory of a fruit fly!"
Nearly every effin escort quests in early WoW, where solo-leveling wasnt easy :)
Greg: You think your so high and mighty when you stray from the path huh! Now my grandma is dead because of you!
Greg seems to have become somewhat tougher and darker ever since alternate world Greg took up being a Cleric.
Also I’d love to see a similar short to this where the player runs out and plays around wondering what the NPC will do to them and either they just spontaneously die, get hit by a random strike of lightning, or a random NPC dressed in 1940’s Soviet NKVD commissar gear (completely non-adherent to the world at all) just walks out from behind nowhere, draws their nagaunt revolver and just shoots them before walking away with the death sign “shot for cowardness” left over them.
I love greg XD, new guy crying was on point rowan trained him well
YES! Please more sketch with him as main! he is incredible too, you guys are so good at casting people!
