My favorite part of "Monster Factory" was when the boys spent like 2 years saying "Pretty soon this show is only going to be on our channel!" And then basically as soon as it actually started only being on this channel they just stopped making them.
TIL That "juice" is a funny way that Griffin calls his brother Justin and not just an unrelated word he randomly says for no reason like I was so eager to assume til now
It took me SO LONG, like 2 years of listening to McElroy content, to realize that they were calling Griffin “Ditto” as a nickname (I assume he mimicked his brothers when he was younger like the Pokémon or something) and not just using the term “ditto” extremely wrong
Griffin's utterly hopeless panic at the realization that every single other character in the game hated his king's rotten little soul absolutely killed me. My stomach hurts from laughing and I blame you, McElroy. Premium speedrun, boys.
Every time this comes up in my youtube recs, I get a littler bit sadder that even more time has passed since the last Monster Factory. I hope it comes back some day
The character didn't even start looking too far out of the realm of what the Hapsburgs ended up with until 6 and a half minutes in, which I think says more about the Hapsburgs than Justin and Griffin.
I know people might not be particularly interested in this anecdote, but my favourite production of Macbeth features a twelve-year-old as Malcolm, the son of the murdered king. I still very much remember the extended speech about the endless cistern of lust which he possesses, and shall fill once he becomes king.
When they bring up the point about having a front and side view, and it reminded me of the first game I ever played that let you edit your appearance, which was Mass Effect. I remember spending SOOO much time working on him, looking at him from only the front, and thinking, "Damn, this man looks heroic" Only to then see the monster I created in the side profile. His face reminded me of the base of a street cone, with the rest of the face pointing outward by a gross degree from the nose.
"Everybody hates your guts because of all your negative characteristics!" is a phrase I would love to work into more conversations if only I was capable of fully burning social bridges.
Right?? I never buy games because there’s a recession on but i might get this one I really need to make a gay Jewish king of England and see what happens
Luckily there are religions you can adopt or create in CK3 that nobody ever actually practiced to our best knowledge. Like Adamism, the Christian heresy where clothes are a sin.
The reason the follow up to this episode is taking so long is because griffin is studying medieval history and elite CK3 strats to min max his next play through
Your feelings don't matter unless you performatively act offended on twitter and tie your personal baggage to your minority status and hold everyone else accountable for it. Try that, maybe they'll resurrect the series if you say it's offensive to people with depression and anxiety that they took away a source of joy from you or something. Also stick in that you're non-binary or something to be safe.
@@joshualuke7003 Sometimes people just bring up concerns without being performative, you know. Just because you're not hurt doesn't mean someone else isn't.
@@Fredbob392 they stopped doing monster factory because the character creaters in newer games make it harder to make non-humans. And the more human looking creations offend people on twitter
Some say that the old Monster Factory lies abandoned. But on the night of the new moon, ye can still smell the sulfurous black clouds billowing out those old smoke stacks. And little Jimmy swears one night he saw a light a'flicking through yonder broken window, and the shadow of those 2 brothers running.... running...
God I know they’re busy and stressed and I’m sure have gotten some controversy about this series for SOMETHING but I really miss Monster Factory. New ones are literally the only things that I watch that actually gets me to laugh uncontrollably. When I’m in a rough spot I rewatch them. Take y’all’s time of course but man do I miss it. Rewatching them should suffice though
It got shelved because it could be seen as ‘ableist’. Never mind that it actually helped out a lot of struggling people and brought them such much needed laughs, someone on Twitter was offended. Please be vocal about this if you’re upset about it.
@@joshualuke7003 I guess it could be ableist? Specifically for character creators that don't let you get as silly with the proportions. Laughing at a deformity and labeling people that might look similar as "monsters", but I don't see why that would stop them from doing completely "out there" episodes like with Truck Shepard, the woodworking one, or the Skyrim mini series.

@@skootties Hey now, there's no need to be like that. I totally understand it's difficult to see people who don't understand ableism well, I'm both mentally and physically disabled, but you shouldn't insult them over it.

I think they could return to it by just doing strickly nonhuman or very absurd creatures- things like the Spore series and the guy made of wood. Calling someone a baby because they don't understand why something is wrong isn't productive at all and isn't going to change anyone's mind; it's simply just mean.

I wish they would play this game long enough to get to the point where they make a horse the leader of the Holy Roman Empire, or whatever, just so we could get their reactions.
As someone who’s never played Crusader Kings, I’m absolutely floored that the developers actually put a unique description for a skill level of 69 and it’s simply “nice” And I couldn’t be happier to know it exists
If you play the game properly, Skills almost never go higher than 25. A skill level of 20 is considered to be extremely good and worth changing the entire dynasty over. It takes many generations of constant in-breeding to get skills anywhere near 69, which makes the addition of "nice" even more incredible.
@@Alizudo For what it's worth, I threw some (slightly OP) anime characters into Scandinavia and some of their descendants have wacky stats. One guy currently has a learning stat of 32. Ironically enough, he's only half anime spawn because his mom had an affair with a lustful knight, and is also the only one of his siblings NOT to have the Genius or Intelligent trait! XD Everyone else has a more reasonable learning stat, but I guess he was like "I MUST PROVE MY WORTH AS THE ONLY ILLEGITIMATE CHILD" and just. Studied. Constantly. To be fair, I also made a science cult with all the tenets that are knowledge related, so I think that might be boosting the learning stat of it's followers. Oh, he's 3rd generation anime spawn, just to clarify. To be fair I shoved a ton of anime people into the game because there wasn't anything stopping me from creating more rulers, and it seemed like a good way to start of with a strong gene pool, so that's not exactly playing properly... ^_^'
The "69 Nice" thing is normally not a joke I find funny but the sheer audacity of them to include that as an Easter Egg set me up perfectly for "Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" to make me laugh so hard I literally cried in the middle of lunch.
When Justin said he played ten minutes of the game and got bored I remembered when my wife had an affair with my son and plotted to depose me so my son could rule with his mother wife and I just thought "Boy howdy are you in for a surprise"
Man, if their plot had succeeded you'd probably have needed to stop playing Crusader Kings for a while to sort out your domestic affairs. How bothersome, right?
I love how they don't let him murder someone because he's a child, but he already has the trait 'murderer' and the other characters hate him for it In the world of Crusader Kings, children are allowed exactly ONE (1) murder.
Well yeah. As a dad, you feel it is awkward to talk to your kids about murder, but then you find a blood knfie in his drawer, and then he says he is holding it for a friend. And then you've gotta have "The talk".
Even though it's Pandemic times, I'm glad the McElroys can come tour in Sweden, even if it is as the envoys of a boy king ruling over a county I've never fucking heard of and probably only existed in viking times
It's indeed now Dalsland, where i'm from, and you can go visit the ruins of Dalaborg or view a model of what it might have looked like in the local museum. Pretty wild to see it in this video for sure!
"Count Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice of Dal's soul has finally been cast to hell at 0 years of age." now THAT'S a legacy. when everyone around is like "FINALLY! fuck... can't believe we spent 8 whole months with that asshole"

holy shit guys, it's beetlejuice!
Did he say it right?
@@stopmefoamjumping he said it as right as one could expect of an English speaker, really!
How is it really pronounced?
Justin: "No one saw this coming."
Every Crusader Kings 3 player: "That baby's gonna die immediately."
Really, the unexpected thing is that it survived a whole *8 months*.
"No, sad - you wouldn't be happy if you were him."
If only we had known this would be the last monster factory we would get😭
well happy birthday and merry christmas to you, carley
At 9:41 Justin saying “don’t chicken out when you’re this close to art” is gold
This line really resonates with me. I've spent a good amount of time doing really dumb stuff in videogames and this has quickly become my anthem.
ok this is the most actively monstrous creations ever to emerge from this series
How soon we forget Truck Shephard
@@OkamiG15 that was God’s mistake, not the boys’
This baby has a flesh ‘stache where his lips go
trüllbus: the crime eater has entered the chat
It’s been six months. Please, boys, bless us.
I think Griffin had a baby.
@@liriodendronlasianthus Well, Rachel did, but yes. And yet he's still making every other show he's a part of.
I'm just trying to imagine what his skull looks like.
Horse
I have stumbled onto the long foretold treasure of the forbidden monster factory
oh and what an episode to start with... wow
oh wow you got in the door early somehow yeah
Welcome to the party! Please take a name tag, and feel free to help yourself to anything at the open buffet.
Welcome! I recommend the knife dad episode - that game don’t know can’t!
@@ribby9069 i think what they're saying is they found the new episode while it was still unlisted, not that this is their first monster factory
"...Hey, Juice? [...] Did we make a horse?"
Me: Ah, they finally noticed
I wish they would play this game long enough to get to the point where they make a horse the leader of the Holy Roman Empire, or whatever, just so we could get their reactions.
@@MattyChap Glitterhoof?
@@MentalVideographer Glitterhoof rides again!
If they selectively bred for limblessness would they eventually end up with a Torsey?
@@intereality Norse to Torse?
The child died and took the Monster Factory series with it…
This has instantly become the episode I’m gonna show ppl who’ve never watched Monster Factory before
As someone who’s never played Crusader Kings, I’m absolutely floored that the developers actually put a unique description for a skill level of 69 and it’s simply “nice”
And I couldn’t be happier to know it exists
If you play the game properly, Skills almost never go higher than 25. A skill level of 20 is considered to be extremely good and worth changing the entire dynasty over.
It takes many generations of constant in-breeding to get skills anywhere near 69, which makes the addition of "nice" even more incredible.
@@Alizudo So basically, if this baby had grown up, he would've been a superhuman scheming and killing machine.
@@TheEyeWatching
Pretty much.
@@Alizudo For what it's worth, I threw some (slightly OP) anime characters into Scandinavia and some of their descendants have wacky stats. One guy currently has a learning stat of 32. Ironically enough, he's only half anime spawn because his mom had an affair with a lustful knight, and is also the only one of his siblings NOT to have the Genius or Intelligent trait! XD Everyone else has a more reasonable learning stat, but I guess he was like "I MUST PROVE MY WORTH AS THE ONLY ILLEGITIMATE CHILD" and just. Studied. Constantly. To be fair, I also made a science cult with all the tenets that are knowledge related, so I think that might be boosting the learning stat of it's followers. Oh, he's 3rd generation anime spawn, just to clarify. To be fair I shoved a ton of anime people into the game because there wasn't anything stopping me from creating more rulers, and it seemed like a good way to start of with a strong gene pool, so that's not exactly playing properly... ^_^'
@@TheEyeWatching Let's be real, with the personality he would have been a terrifying monster....
Bald high eyebrows face looks eerily like handsome squidward.
Lol I love your pfp
Definitely thought the same thing 😂
I was just thinking that!
Dang, I’m so sad this is the last monster factory. I didn’t even know it at the time
The "69 Nice" thing is normally not a joke I find funny but the sheer audacity of them to include that as an Easter Egg set me up perfectly for "Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" to make me laugh so hard I literally cried in the middle of lunch.
I'm sad they didn't remark on the fact that Count Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice was *FINALLY cast to hell* at the age of 8 months.
When Justin said he played ten minutes of the game and got bored I remembered when my wife had an affair with my son and plotted to depose me so my son could rule with his mother wife and I just thought "Boy howdy are you in for a surprise"
I can't believe they allowed that to happen in their own game that they created for people to actually play and experience
Man, if their plot had succeeded you'd probably have needed to stop playing Crusader Kings for a while to sort out your domestic affairs. How bothersome, right?
@@kwarra-an Check a history book my dude, the medieval period was WILDIN
In fact it was Wild and Out with Nick Cannon Wildin.
this didn't happen in crusader kings iii it was real
Not in game of course, that just sorta happened in real life while you were playing Crusader Kings. Truly magical this game is.
28:50 "i would love to do another episode in this."
and then they never did.
Boys I would genuinely pay per view for new monster factory eps
I love how they don't let him murder someone because he's a child, but he already has the trait 'murderer' and the other characters hate him for it
In the world of Crusader Kings, children are allowed exactly ONE (1) murder.
As a treat
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that
If he’s a good boy, he can have another one for Christmas.
Like he is literally a cannibal, where the hell is the line and when was it crossed?
Well yeah. As a dad, you feel it is awkward to talk to your kids about murder, but then you find a blood knfie in his drawer, and then he says he is holding it for a friend. And then you've gotta have "The talk".
Even though it's Pandemic times, I'm glad the McElroys can come tour in Sweden, even if it is as the envoys of a boy king ruling over a county I've never fucking heard of and probably only existed in viking times
Oh it's Dalsland. I'm stupid. My mom's friend is from there
Dal is now Dalsland and it is still on the Norwegian border
It's indeed now Dalsland, where i'm from, and you can go visit the ruins of Dalaborg or view a model of what it might have looked like in the local museum. Pretty wild to see it in this video for sure!
I need the next episode of this like I need air to breathe
“Did we make a horse?” Got me real good. 🤣
I would absolutely watch a whole series of the McElroy's play crusader kings
Unfortunately idk if either of them have the attention span or will power to commit to that
"Count Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice of Dal's soul has finally been cast to hell at 0 years of age."
now THAT'S a legacy. when everyone around is like "FINALLY! fuck... can't believe we spent 8 whole months with that asshole"
Oh my god this video is 7 months old? Time isn’t fucking real anymore, I’m gonna go mourn monster factory I guess
Just popping in to say that I miss Monster Factory. That's it. I love you.
