  • I like the satisfaction of finishing a long-form video (especially after I spend a long time on it.) I had a draft for this very video from November of last year but I wanted to rethink it a bit. Other than that, I hope it all ends well!

    Literally just found out about this game, this is the second video I've watched about it and I'm kinda blown away. The bizarre but mathematical nature of the in-game display score is oddly mesmerizing, and your video did an awesome job showcasing that. Gotta play more cult classics like this.

    This video was definitely high quality, i enjoyed every minute of it

    What’s funny is that it isn’t just the community that calls them coupons. The official PAL manual literally calls the scoring shapes coupons which is just hilarious to me

    Found this video from a mention in someones comment and I can say, that even though the microphone sounds like from a 5$ headset, the delivery was so cool that the mic quality didn't matter in the end.
    Watched till the end, and I didn't even play vib-ribbon, nor did I have a console back in the days. You got this funny-interesting youtuber charm.

      I can't fucking take it. I see an image of a random score posted and then I see it, I fucking see it. "Oh that looks kinda like the Blue Zenith 727 score" it started as. That's funny, that's a cool reference. But I kept going, I'd see a clock with time that showed 7:27, I'd see that I'm on the 7/27 page on my school homework, my last notice to pay my electricity bill is 727$ , I'd notice that it's been 727 days since the last time I touched a woman. And every time I'd burst into an insane, breath deprived laugh staring at the image as the number 727 ran through my head. I'm scared to look at the time when someone asks me what time is it. It's torment, psychological torture, I am being conditioned to laugh maniacally any time I see an 3-digit number which is anywhere close to 727. I can't fucking live like this... I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't! And don't get me fucking started on the words! I'll never hear the phrase "when you see it" again without thinking of 727. Someone does pretty cool and respectable score and I can't say anything other than "WYSI." I could watch a man Fc hard underweighted map I love and all I would be able to say is "WYSI" and laugh like a fucking insane person. And the phrase "when you see it" is ruined. I can't live anymore. 727 has destroyed my fucking life. I want to eject myself from this plane of existence.

    I could make out how the score system went up through observation, and how if you manage to make it so that all your score symbols (i call them score symbols) are one shape, you next good move will turn them all into one single shape with a greater value than the rest i think???

    My only complaint is that the transitions can take a bit longer then they need to to get from point to point. But I imagine its mostly personal preference. Definitely going to check out all your wider content.
