These are always some of my favorite monster factories because anime shit has such an aversion to having an unattractive protagonists. They really have to work get something good.
@@DeathnoteBB That is very true. There have to be a few dozen MMO type games where the character creator is like "Assemble a visage of otherworldly aesthetic perfection in any manner your heart desires." then the game is straight doo doo.
@@Lymmar that's usually the case with actual anime shows. A+ character designs and visuals, truly gorgeous artwork, but anything of substance like story or characters or theme kinda just flies out the window
This is what Twilight should've been. This. Two men, creating a homunculus and wondering why some game designer gave them so much power. Shit, Monster Factory is like the story of Icarus but their wings never burn up.
Given that they've lost a few characters its more like their wings have burned up several times but they have parachutes and just get up and try again.
Honestly I am so into the fact that PragerU spends money to put ads on McElroy videos I just got a 2.5 minute lecture about some guy's personal feeling that young men are corrupted by The Left and video games, now I'm extremely ready to watch these good boys create the powerful genderfluid vampire in the thumbnail
I mean, I’m far from the left politically but that’s such a laughable concept… People go after Alex Jones and Joe Rogan (who is actually a hardcore lefty, even voted for and still wants to vote for Bernie Sanders) but PragerU is objectively worse and should be shamed for their ridiculous views and video content.
I've watched the entirety of the Monster Factory series multiple times, and it never fails to make me laugh hysterically. People talk about comfort media being things you go back to in times of stress, and Monster Factory is definitely one for me. My favorite quote that I laugh at every time for whatever reason is, "Hi, I'm Dark Vader. I'm a Star Wars!"
@@garfieldbrooks I'm not gonna lie, when I said that I was thinking bout the new animal crossing game so I cant't definitively say how good it is until march 20th, but im still hyped As far as my actual favourite game?? I dunno its legitimately hard to pick For nostalgia it's pokemon mystery dungeon: explorers of time, a game still very close to my heart For story/narrative its Rakuen, an RPG maker game on steam that made me cry, its such a lovely game but the feels hit really hard And im a sucker for detective/mystery games like Ace attorney and danganronpa 2 So... Any of those?? haha I dunno Do you have a favourite game?
@@Cottagegay I've only ever played Fallout new vegas from that series tbh, I love the monster factory fallout vids tho As far as famous indie developer Bethany Esda's games go, I loved Skyrim, I'm a sucker for fantasy stories
Griffin: "Let's not make it like, silly this time. Right, let's make him kind of a cool sort of anime boy." Also Griffin: "Can I make the mouth just kinda disappear? I want movie magic to make this vampire just not have a mouth."
Guys you've been adding the message that "in the near future these won't be on Polygon's channel" since two December's ago; is it really still the "near future?"
Shit, imagine a game made by him but all the characters are made by the brothers. I literally can not comprehend what it looks like but I want it so badly
Griffin saying "mmmmm SMASH THAT" used to turn my soul into an explosion of joy, but after hearing it so many times, it has dissolved into merely a mild amusement. Is this what death is like?
I love how the tools this game gives you for character creation allows you to do something like place a tiny snowman protruding from your chest, and then dress him up to match your character. But then at the same time, it's like "WHAT?? You want punctuation marks in your name??! What the fuck is WRONG with you?!?!?"
all i can think of is that slimeburger video quote like. “not our wildest creation, but i love him more than the average one” bc like. i would die for this vampire dad and his snowman boy
Wow, Justin's minute-long opening monologue "David Sunflowerseed's GameZone" REALLY proved why Griffin usually takes the reigns of these. And why that should change. #DavidSunflowerseedsGameZone4Life

My favorite monsters are when their appearance is also part of their story. Like the kisses from his giant clown mom, tiny upside down cheetah dad, and his back flipping sister? *chefs kiss*
I would give anything to see the snowman hop off his body and viciously maul an opponent's neck.
See, that was a thing I didn't know I needed until you breathed life into the idea.

It's literally in the oxford english dictionary as a noun and verb "(v) be an overzealous or obsessive fan of a particular celebrity."

Is the homunculus a clone or a perfect copy?
the minute the tiny ponytail appeared on the snowman i was sold. i must protect this boy with all my being. oh my woooorrrrddddd
I know people say this a lot, but I needed this at this exact moment in my life.
That's exactly how i feel rn, I need something to tide me over until the new animal crossing game comes out
I feel it so hard rn. I opened up the youtube homepage and almost teared up at the sight of a fresh monster factory
I'm here for it!

I love the snowman more than anything
The moment when they decided to give him a matching outfit the video truly took flight.
*griffin laughing:* * door creaking *
the next jojo villain is looking pretty good. i like how his stand is a parasitic growth.
The snowman is the stand user; the vampire is the stand.
So the stand is essentially Empress
Every time I think I have a handle on the McElroy aesthetic, they make a snowman with human hair coming out of the chest of a very smooch Ed vampire.
I feel like every time we love a boy this much, he gets deleted. If someone deletes our boy, I will RIOT
They should have officially named this game Code Vein: Three Faces, Infinite Hat Placement

And his adoring snowson. The genderfluid vampire boi is also a single parent. We stan an icon.
It kinda makes me happy they’re wasting their money lol. Ye show this ad to me and not someone who might actually believe it
I'm not gonna lie, I was ready to be mad lol. Thank you for pleasantly surprising me
Did they not check metrics of the McElroy fan base at all?
Talk about knowing your audience.

i’m glad clayton is so deeply established in the MFCU (monster factory cinematic universe)
Same i was gonna say this is an absolutely great episode but hearing clayton's name always makes me that much happier
"I thought I loved my children"
griffins squeaked out "oh my god!" at 9:59 is giving me life

I know nothing about this game but after seeing the character customisation I've decided its the (2nd) best game

after animal crossing i assume
@@garfieldbrooks I'm not gonna lie, when I said that I was thinking bout the new animal crossing game so I cant't definitively say how good it is until march 20th, but im still hyped
As far as my actual favourite game?? I dunno its legitimately hard to pick
For nostalgia it's pokemon mystery dungeon: explorers of time, a game still very close to my heart
For story/narrative its Rakuen, an RPG maker game on steam that made me cry, its such a lovely game but the feels hit really hard
And im a sucker for detective/mystery games like Ace attorney and danganronpa 2
So... Any of those?? haha I dunno

Shit, imagine a game made by him but all the characters are made by the brothers. I literally can not comprehend what it looks like but I want it so badly
this seriously is the best monster factory in years i’m cryingggg
So glad we finally get to see the long awaited video where Justin plays his favourite game of all time, Code Vein
Thank you for the serotonin dear brothers
I only started watching these like... a week ago. It's so heartwarming to see these boys having as much fun now as they were back when they started.
Griffin saying "mmmmm SMASH THAT" used to turn my soul into an explosion of joy, but after hearing it so many times, it has dissolved into merely a mild amusement.

Don't talk to me or my snowman son ever again
The character creator has soooo much potential. They could easily make a bunch more monsters using that alone. I definitely wouldn't mind.
I love how the tools this game gives you for character creation allows you to do something like place a tiny snowman protruding from your chest, and then dress him up to match your character. But then at the same time, it's like "WHAT?? You want punctuation marks in your name??! What the fuck is WRONG with you?!?!?"
Justin has been scared of vampires since his encounter with Count Donut
