I never thought I could get rhyme "blue balled". The start conditioned me to expect rhyming, and he kept using an inflection when speaking that made me expect him to rhyme, only to just... not.
3:45 lol, literally my first experience of Kenshi was getting enslaved. I entered a holy mine and just entered a cage to see what would happen. They were like, "Okay, you're our slave now." lol
I would love to see a Pure hive soldier play through, no other ones, since they are crap at pretty much everything else it would take a bit of extra work to not only just try and find soldiers but to skill them up
Imagine explaining the occurrences of this game to anybody else, ah yes this is Torso the parapalegic who rips his arms and legs on and off to steal..... them he gets kidnapped and enslaved after being beaten unconscious.... to avoid religious prosecution he tears of his limbs and crawls miles across deserts.
He once had a companion who was once a servant of the hive. But upon finding themselves wandering the vast deserts of kenshi the companion abandoned the torso but in doing so was captured as a slave and killed.
Let me sound like a bible then, then a voice came to Torsolo from up above Saying, “my child, you have a great journey ahead of you, but it does not require limbs nor mind, but heart. Go now before the heretical empires lay ruin to these lands. Go and seek your destiny!” And so, Torsolo wiggled his way to his destiny.
@@nightgaunt535 i was also thinking that as well or that he meant being caught and then enslaved rather than starting out as a slave. like ive never been caught out and enslaved in kenshi, but ive done the slave start. im also new to his channel so idk what legend was being referenced here.
I think I know Torsolo's background bio - I used to keep a Dust Bandit with no arms and legs in my base. His job was to be a dumbbell. My people would just throw him over the shoulder, stuff their pockets with heavy stuff and just run around in circles around the base, training their strength. We never knew his name was Torsolo. We just called him Pillow.
"Ah, the art of the heist! I must make like the mice!" The crippled thief says as he removes all of his artificial limbs. This is the poetic larceny I live for.
17:40 -- "What is this guy's problem?" Well, he's being attacked by a nugget with unholy Narko limbs who keeps singing about making love to him. I'd run too.
Being enslaved can be a boon for early characters. Great way to train skills with minimal risk. Repeatedly trying to escape can really bring up your skills, especially toughness. And when you fall down they just heal you and you try again later
Watch as a man crosses desert after desert, exponentially increasing his limbs and becoming over 4x faster. This is the solo kenshi experience taken to the next level... level... level...
Kinda reminds me of Digimon. They also had revert to their earlier forms to either rest or to not cause panic when they were in real world. And as everyone familiar with that series knows, many later stage evolutions tended to have metallic limbs. Does that mean that our poor Hive slave is Torsolomon's tamer?
There is just something hilarious about watching this torso with a straw rice farmer's hat flopping around in the sand while the narrator reiterates how his stealth will go up more to help him steal.
I got real stoned while watching this and throughout the entire episode I couldn't lose the anticipation after every sentence for a rhyme, and i interpreted everything you said with cadence. This entire episode sounded like a Dr Seuss story, all because of that brilliant intro. Thank you for the wild experience XD
man who now has an arm and legs: "am i even gonna be able to survive out here, i don't know" same man before he got limbs: *crawls across the desert twice in search of food and arms me: **are you sure about that**
Folks were watching, all bewildered By his use of wit and skill. For the ninja thief among them was A fleshbag on crude steel. Fleshbag on crude steel~
Hilarious series, can't wait to see torsolo flourish. Your videos have me the itch to play kenshi again, now to collect every hiver possible to form the best hive and conquer the southern hive that cast me out.
I feel like this episode you were really fighting the urge to not rhyme the whole way through. I swore every other line you could hear your voice about to trail off into another rhyme.
a charterer with 60 in the sneaking skills can solo pretty much any bounty in the game. Its op as hell. Walked into the red saber HQ, walked out with their leader, no one gave a shit. Did the same with any bounties in the swamp. When making a thief be sure to get a backpack from the shinobi, and be sure to train strength. You'll need it to cart away the sheer amount of loot you'll get. Also keep hash smuggling in mind.
Are we just not gonna talk about how great "these legs speak for themselves *zooms in on torsolo's butt* and that's not all I've got" is? Like, genuinely made me laugh. But maybe I'm just childish.
11:44 Well, that's the first time I've ever heard granary said like "grainery". Sounds like that's making it even harder to say than it is already for no reason.
I once had to drag a solo all the way from Northern Holy Nation down to that small Hive village in Northern Shem, as I had a large fight some some high paladins that ended badly.
I've run a thief before, they're extremely OP. I mean I took down pretty much all the big bounties with only assassination and I even took down the final boss of the game, so yeah a good thief is definitely able to be played solo, although my thief had human limbs so im not sure if stealth limbs affect speed for quick getaways. Also the easiest grind for assassination isn't the training dummy but continually to KO the same set of people, in one case it was the escaped slave that hangout in front of the UN cities, but its probably easier with hungry bandits and dust bandits, and once you have sufficient stats torsolo can become a great bountyhunter.
stealth/assasination has been my staple of the game since i bought it. ive only ever defeated a single boss, (dust king)in a straight fight, ive just stolen everything, maxed out the research tree, built massive towns, knocked out and stolen every guard, store owner, and faction boss, just through one really fast stealthy boi. its honestly kinda broken :) but SO FUCKING SATISFYING.
A great way to grind assassination is to go to Mongrel and sneak behind groups of fogmen KO'ing them from back to front. You'll definitely need better limbs to outrun them though.
I was on my youtube feed when I saw the thumbnail and started laughing. Then I moused over it and saw a torse in abnormally fast speed cross across the desert. I clicked and wrote this and even as I finish this comment I haven't stopped laughing.
I can’t be the first to say this, you sound exactly like Anthony Jeselnik. Excellent vids, man!! I’ve been sucked down into the Kenshi rabbit hole and you’ve given me some good ideas! Subbed
You can practice Assasination sneaking behind Drifters in the Bars and trying to take them down. if you fail the shop guards will help you so don't worry, and if you take them down they don't care lol
That Alt-F4 also got me multiple times. It taught me the foresight of looking in the controls for any key bindings that are labeled 'Alt' and 'F4' & rebind them. Whoever fought it was a good idea to default-bind the 2 MOST used functions to Alt & F4, kudos to you. ;D
I mean, really. That's some sly trolling right there. It's hard to rebind someone's controls so it's Alt & F4 on two seperate functions that the user would, autonomously and subconsciously, press both of them at the same time.
One thing you might consider is the robotics shop in Black Desert City; if you're crafty upstairs, you can steal masterwork quality limbs. Your surplus would sell for a good amount too!
If you pause the game and right click in a bunch of places while holding left shift, you can create a path to follow. Prettt useful to train athletics, strenght and stealth.
I'm thinking of fighting a giant bug next. Any giant bug mod ideas?
Is there a giant Beep mod? I think that would be a good battle
I challenge you to rime every sentence that you say in one of these videos
You should try to steal better arms and legs instead of buying them!!
@fivesanon lol that thing is terrifying, it comes out of nowhere in the swamps and completely oneshots everyone in your party even the high level guys
Praetorian! A huge bug!
I've been through the desert as a torso with no legs
It felt good to be out of the rain
Kenshi - Torso with no Legs
In the desert, they can't remember your name.
Because your limbs are no longer feeling the pain.
God dude i like this comment
lol
@Techtato that was a song way before bojack, I believe it was originally made by the band America. There's a lot of covers of it
I never thought I could get rhyme "blue balled". The start conditioned me to expect rhyming, and he kept using an inflection when speaking that made me expect him to rhyme, only to just... not.
i had this exact same feeling. thank you for putting it into words dear god it was distracting
Same haha
Glad to see I'm not the only one who felt like that
holy crap its like i feel like he's starting a rhyme but he's not, its driving me crazy
Blue balled, you called?
I like to imagine Torsolo's bitterness over his existence is what drives him to murder innocent passerbys. XD
"You get a massive buff from crawling"
Are you sure it isn't you just losing the crippling debuff from the garbage bin limbs you're forced to use?
Pickpocketing is hard when your elbow squeaks when it moves.
@@silverseth7 or when you accidentally kancho your target from a malfunction
You get a 100% buff to stealth when crawling
@@Taggart00 huh, the more you know
It's both, the garbage limbs also give some debuff like -75% stealth and crawling gives 100% stealth buff.
3:45 lol, literally my first experience of Kenshi was getting enslaved. I entered a holy mine and just entered a cage to see what would happen. They were like, "Okay, you're our slave now." lol
Speaks a volume
"I would really want to have an army of hiver soldiers"
Are we gonna forget about the series with 100 hivers
um unfortunately he couldn't get that save file working it broke
and i think he means starting a hive from the ground up
Those were regular hiver drones. Incredibly flimsy. The soldiers are a wee bit thougher.
Did a little post on this the other day - thanks for reposting it ^.^
I would love to see a Pure hive soldier play through, no other ones, since they are crap at pretty much everything else it would take a bit of extra work to not only just try and find soldiers but to skill them up
I Love moment when he trow off His legs and hand and start "thief-worm" mode 💗
Same 💜
Wiggle to victory
Great name for it lmao
Beautiful 😍
Dead ass 😂😂😂

@@csmrookie9600 which is even more ironic when you realise torsolo arch enemy is the holy nation so the fanatic are actually the heretics
@@wilmagregg3131 huh, that is ironic. Want to continue this fake biblical saga?
3:43
AA : "I've never been enslaved before in kenshi"
Me : I guess the legend of the one punch man is just a legend after all
I'm guessing he means he's never actually played the part of a slave rather than just breaking out immediately, could be wrong though.
I was thinking the exact same thing 😂
@@nightgaunt535 i was also thinking that as well or that he meant being caught and then enslaved rather than starting out as a slave. like ive never been caught out and enslaved in kenshi, but ive done the slave start. im also new to his channel so idk what legend was being referenced here.
@@kingfraust He has a series where he creates "One Punch Man" in Kenshi, at one point the slavers do grab him but he gets out that episode.
@@nightgaunt535 oh okay dope, ill have to give that one a watch too. also thank you for giving the reply, even after a year. that is appreciated :)
"They say you can't hear his step or see his hands, they call him torsolo" -one eyed bill
Perfect phrase for this character!
"All you hear is this 'vweep-vweep-vweep' noise, and then everything goes black."
they say there is this skeleton who disguise as torso wandering around holy nation -paladin
I think I know Torsolo's background bio - I used to keep a Dust Bandit with no arms and legs in my base. His job was to be a dumbbell.

bro, you're the reason
Good old Kenshi ruck march
14:42 "when i get my hands on some limbs"
That's funny in more ways than i have stubs to count on.
Torso, the tyrant in the making, cast aside by those gifted the privilege of legs and arms
Oh, The privilege of having limbs
P U N I S H E D
TORSO
@@luizamorim8265 It is nice to have it.
Who needs limbs when you have a torso?
"Ah, the art of the heist! I must make like the mice!" The crippled thief says as he removes all of his artificial limbs.
This is the poetic larceny I live for.
"Please kidnap me. Oh great! I'm being enslaved!" Only in Kenshi
and bdsm
17:40 -- "What is this guy's problem?"
Well, he's being attacked by a nugget with unholy Narko limbs who keeps singing about making love to him. I'd run too.
not to mention he only wear underwear
This was the episode that launched the new persona of a empty headed rhyming philosophy dude who grinds stat games.
this was the video that changed AA
Haha, oh thank you my friend - a cordial thanks!
god now i cant stop hearing him rhyme even when he isnt
Being enslaved can be a boon for early characters. Great way to train skills with minimal risk. Repeatedly trying to escape can really bring up your skills, especially toughness. And when you fall down they just heal you and you try again later
Only in Kenshi, where when you're alone and unconscious in the desert, being kidnapped and enslaved is considered a "good outcome".
The idea that he uses his disability to his advantage with stealth, this is best playthrough.
Watch as a man crosses desert after desert, exponentially increasing his limbs and becoming over 4x faster. This is the solo kenshi experience taken to the next level... level... level...
3:29 "They're gonna take good care of me and then I'll take all their shit"
That's hilariously badass in a bizarre way lmao.
Kinda reminds me of Digimon. They also had revert to their earlier forms to either rest or to not cause panic when they were in real world. And as everyone familiar with that series knows, many later stage evolutions tended to have metallic limbs.
Does that mean that our poor Hive slave is Torsolomon's tamer?

You'll be interested in knowing that in Italian "torsolo" means apple core. Appropriate 👌👌👌
Woot everybody get hype for a early upload!!! Love this series!
Torso is gonna end up being able to steal the heart right out of someone’s chest with those claws and sneak skill
He's already stolen mine.
Oh no, quick somebody call the police, torsolo has entered the organ stealing market!
Wait no dont call the police
CALL GOD
@@jeefm5549 he will steal god’s kidney
Better love story than Twilight
1:20 thats the most believable "oh I have fallen and I can't get up" declaration. No one definitely suspected you.
I got real stoned while watching this and throughout the entire episode I couldn't lose the anticipation after every sentence for a rhyme, and i interpreted everything you said with cadence.
This entire episode sounded like a Dr Seuss story, all because of that brilliant intro. Thank you for the wild experience XD

same man before he got limbs: *crawls across the desert twice in search of food and arms
me: **are you sure about that**
This is the kinda game I'd never play by myself but it's hella fun to watch someone who knows what they're doing play it.
This is the best thing I've watched. I purchased the game because of this. Thank you for creating such entertaining content
Honestly this is my favorite kenshi series on youtube
He has no organic legs, but prosthetics.
Would he be a man with a big hip on his iron?
Folks were watching, all bewildered
By his use of wit and skill.
For the ninja thief among them was
A fleshbag on crude steel.
Fleshbag on crude steel~

This series is amazing!
I recently started to look this videos and man. HOW THIS FUY DOESN'T HAVE 5 M SUBS? I demand this men to reach 5 M before 2023!
I’d like to believe this man was able to expand his vocabulary to such a level because of these videos
i would literally watch 100 episodes on this character. Love the work man
You could just do this series over and over again and I would watch it every single time for all of eternity.
Hilarious series, can't wait to see torsolo flourish. Your videos have me the itch to play kenshi again, now to collect every hiver possible to form the best hive and conquer the southern hive that cast me out.
Torosolo is actualy a awsome character.
Stealth lvl: 68
Me: We were on the verge of greatness, we were this close.
Man, your rhymes opening the video are hot fire!
"The desert was barren" What a surprise...
You might be the greatest youtuber to ever grace this site in my 13 years of watching content on this site
The opening rhymes screwed me for the rest of the video, everything you said from then on I expected to rhyme.
19:37 "guards help someone is committing a crime against me." yeah its totally not the way around. Love it.
I feel like this episode you were really fighting the urge to not rhyme the whole way through. I swore every other line you could hear your voice about to trail off into another rhyme.
You’re genuinely a funny guy, you crack me up. Keep up the great content big boy.

Dude these series are insanely fun.Im crying from laughter of the narratives.
The funny thing is: in italian, torsolo is the name of the apple's core, lol. Great content! Keep it up :)
This is my favourite series on this channel.
Would love to see Torsolo reach maxed out stats.
Thank god you uploaded this, I’ve been refreshing your page nonstop hoping you’d drop another kenshi vid 😃
Honestly, I would love to see more Kenshi runs from you, Mr. Amphibian.
I hit the thumbs up before the video even started and I was not dissapointed. Good vid man.
The poems are epic. Please don't stop!😂
Are we just not gonna talk about how great "these legs speak for themselves *zooms in on torsolo's butt* and that's not all I've got" is? Like, genuinely made me laugh. But maybe I'm just childish.

Never stop rhyming, you beautiful creature, for as long as you desire to rhyme
I never realized how much this video and series would affect me. Thank you
Just subscribed, I despise most content on youtube and the company in general but people like you bring me many laughs. Wish you more success.
Coffee came out of my nose.
Piss funny.

"The torso butt" don't change Amb, don't change lol
when i first saw this i thought the only part you could attack would be their torso making combat harder but this is better
I just found your channel... Its awesome

I'd love to watch you gain a gain giver army of assassins, and love the kenish stuff

These LP's are poetry.
The way of the torsolo! Great video man!

You can practice Assasination sneaking behind Drifters in the Bars and trying to take them down. if you fail the shop guards will help you so don't worry, and if you take them down they don't care lol
the fact that he chose to say "lurked" instead of lurched to rhyme with searched, cripples my soul
That Alt-F4 also got me multiple times.
It taught me the foresight of looking in the controls for any key bindings that are labeled 'Alt' and 'F4' & rebind them.
Whoever fought it was a good idea to default-bind the 2 MOST used functions to Alt & F4, kudos to you. ;D
I mean, really. That's some sly trolling right there.
It's hard to rebind someone's controls so it's Alt & F4 on two seperate functions that the user would, autonomously and subconsciously, press both of them at the same time.
So nice to see the high inquisitor again, good memories there!
One thing you might consider is the robotics shop in Black Desert City; if you're crafty upstairs, you can steal masterwork quality limbs. Your surplus would sell for a good amount too!

I thought you just said you did
Yes grind those skills love the new series!
I’m glad I stayed up till one tonight! I get more of torsolo
If you pause the game and right click in a bunch of places while holding left shift, you can create a path to follow.
Prettt useful to train athletics, strenght and stealth.
